Themost remarkable feature OF the day
was one witnessed by the people OF

that Joe Hughes and Otto Grossman
made wager on the Corbett and FitZ-

Joe d wheplbarrow ride Ill around town,
the papers were made out and signed
and the plans carried out. The wheel
barrow was decorated with stars and
stripes, and the Woodruff band led the
parade. 1t looked like "a glorious 18th as
everybody turned out. Wheeling was
very hard as it raned the day before
and the snow on the sidewalks was soft
and deep. Otto perspired like Il man
chopping in midsummer, while Joe was
laughing at him. The parade stopped
at every salsoon, as it was warm day
Otto along with the boys had to queEch
their thirst.

Try to cultivate a free mind that will

yourself a tad-pole's horizon is limited
by his unwholesome puddle, but your
HORIZON is limited by nothing if you will
but curb selfishness and be a sentient
being. The post is all yours. Though
often you forget it, you are lineal decen-

OF every cline are your kinsmen, bone OF
human bone and flesh Of human flesh.
Find interests outside Of yourself; enjoy
the inheritance OF great thing already

You must recognize that the magnif-

been made a victory by Horace Mann,
DR.. Barnard and a host OF lesser note i'll

belief in education for ALI we press for

Were you III q position to read all the
educational publications, or follow the
speeches at the various Teachers Insti-

Association, you would find this "child-
study the burden OF the exhortations
to the teacher.
But write unto you, parents; because
you are many, and because you are es-

The trained ear can detect sounds in
audiable to the unframed; the trained
eye can see into beauties invisible to or
binary mortals; the trained hand accom-
plishes things impossible to gross mani

Without interests In others, narrow
life remains narrow; with it even q sick
room may become the centre OF world

his wandering sheep, the miner working
amid dangers, the farmer wrestling with
difficulties, the wife at her unpaid labors,

Bunyan's muck-heap raker saw no
beauties; selishness in the essential
duties of life, and appreciation OF the full
meaning of life do not abide together.
We cannot serve our race and worship
Mammon. Ii we flank ourselves with
money-bags, or if we want to, just for
what they may bring OF personal com
fort we are condemning ourselves to
loneliness and aches. Money never
bought a friend, and money never held
one The transforming grace OF wo-
mans love, it never purchases. 1t buys
eye-services; it buys self-seeking syco
plants. The house OF the heart is empty
when such fill it.

Much interesting data about the Oc-
equations of the American people is
given in a bulletin of the eleventh cen
sus just made public. 1t shows that
the entire number of people engaged
in occupations of all kinds in 1890 was
22,735,661. OF the whole number of
working people the females form 1922
per cent. Divided by classes, the work
ing people of the country are as fol-
lows: Agriculture, fisheries and min
ing, 9013,336: professional, 1914, 1888; do
nestle and personal service, 4,36O,577;
trade aud transportation, 3,326,122;
manufacturing and mechanical indus
tries, 5,O91,293. Considerable more
than four. ffths of the illiterate male
population of the. country and over
one fourth of the illiterate female pop
uIation are working. Over 50 per cent.
of workingmen are married, over 81
per cent single, over 3 per cent. wild
owed and one-quarter of one per cent.
divorced. In manufactures and me-
chaniCs, the carpenters and joiners,
numbering Gil, 482, make up the great
est element, with dressmakers and
milliners following, with 499,69O.
There are a little over 100000 book
keepers, clerks and salesmes, 69O,658
merchants and dealers, 5,2Sl,557 far
mers, planters aud overseers, aud 3,OO4,
.06l agricultural laborers, 1892 min
ers, aud only a little over $1,000 fish
ermen aud oystermeu. Professors aud
teachers, aggregating 347,344, forms
the most numerous of the professional
classes. Physicians and surgeons, 1O4,-

fail to undo The evils Of SO years of per-
legislation, Inaccessible neglect
and corporation rule. It is true we
have failed in the very important mat
ter of railroad legislation, but We have
two years left in which to get together
and redeem our pledges and, while it is
to be depIored that an extra session
must be called OF We must fail in this
matter, We should be very thankful for
this opportunity that is still left US.
Yet had we only done nothing more
than to pass the school book bill, the
stock yards bill, the antitrust law, the
general utilities bill, the general fee
and salary bill, the law making all
wages payable in lawful money-these
alone should be enough to make
record that any legislature should be
proud Of" Representative LObdell of
Lane, speaking from a republican
standpoint, said: THE legislature has
done we'll. It's chief credit is what it
has not done. The appropriation bills
have been fair, and I have little or no
fault to find with them. Many bad
bills have been killed, for which am
thankful. The net results of the legis-
lature of 1897 will compare very favor
ably with past legislatures"

In compiling the ratings of the new
tariff bill the ways and means commit
tees have called together the manu-
.facturers, and have taken their ideas
on how high the duties should be pla-
ced. 1t would seem that there are 9th
ers who should be consulted-the con-
sumers-of whom there are thousands
to each manufacturer. The consum-
ing masses are as virtually interested
in the tariff schedules as are the man
ufacturing classes, and their interests
should, in all fairness, receive careful
consideration. But when a tariff bill
is to be enacted there seems to be but
one idea dominant, that is for each
branch of manufactures to endeaVor
to grab as deeply in the pocket of the
consumer as possible. The consumer
is the victim and therefore has no rights
the robbers are bound to respect. The
Same thing has proven true in the past,
of tariff legislation, and the proposed
tariff bill will probably prove no ex-
CeptiOn.

ing to have enough separate political
groups TO make its divisions somwhat

few years since but two political par
ties were known to the senate. Now
several distinct parties have represen-

President MCKINLEY has sent his
message to congress now assembled in
special session. 1t points out the de-
acits Of the last five years and recon
mends more revenue by means of in
creased tariff rates, which will also
"preserve the home market for our
own producers" He is strangely silent
upon the causes that have brought
about deficiencies, aud fails to point
out that the falling away Of revenues
began under the tariff law that bore
his name, and which he would have re-
enacted. He also neglects to state that
that act was oaptioned "An Act to Re-
duee Revenues"
