LET me ask, under what conditions
does the employer of labor make
profits AMI become prosperous? Only
when labor is prosperous and in great
demand; when wages are the highest,
and when the demand for his pro-
ducts are the greatest. Then, and
then only, is the employer prosper
Gus. On the other hand, when labor
is not fully employed and can be OBJ
tanned for the lowest wages, when
there is little demand for his pro.
ducts, then the employer can never
be prosperous. In most cases he
must not only not make profits, but
he must see his capital impaired
month after month; he cannot gain, he
must lose. Before the employer can
be prosperous, prosperity must exist
throughout the land. He is never
prosperous before prosperity comes;
and he is prosperous only after it
comes. Andrew Carnegie.
Correct. The interest of the en-
ployer and employe are largely iden-
teal and even Mr.. Carnegie, who is
perhaps as unpopular with the labor
ing classes as any man, realizes that
his own prosperity depends upon the
prosperity of the laborers and the
payment of good wages.

WHILE the popocracy is bowling
about the "victory for silver" be-
cause they have obtained control OF
the Van Buren, county board of sup
ervisors, they say nothing about the
magnificent plurality of 10000 for
Judge Long in the state; neither do
they dwell upon the fact that the re-
publican vote in the county this
spring, on the state ticket, was prac-
tically the same identical percentage
of the whole vote as at last falls

Ventilation.

In dwelling houses lighted by gas the
frequent renewal of the air Is of great i'm
portance. A single gas burner will con-
sumo more oxygen and produce more car
bonic acid to deteriorate the atmosphere of a
room than six or eight candles. If, there
fore, when several burners are used, no
provision is made for the escape of the cor
rupted air and for the introduction of pure
air from without, the health will neces-
sarily suffer.

THE size of the sound money dem.
ocrat vote at the recent election
frightens the managers of the sausage
combination. They see that ii
threatens a disintegration of the in
congruous aggregation known as
democratic peoples = union = silver
party. They claim that the larger
part of the democrat votes were
really cast by silver men who made
a mistake in their ticket. This is
not speaking very highly of the in.
telligence of the silver voters and
has little foundation in fact. Nc
silver man ever lost sight of that
Bryan silver dollar vignette at the
head Of his ticket. The fact is,
without doubt, that many democrats
quietly ignored the combination and
resumed their old party allegiance,
and this is what scares the popocrat
leaders.

Then they used to fool the examiners
very easily; some Qf them were doubt

they used 70 play it on bank inspectors
to such an extent that a community
would find itself bankrupt before it

THEY ARE RUSHING THE WORK
Naval Department Orders Battle
Ship Repairs Hurried So May
Have Use for Them.

New York. July 26.-Orders have
been received mt the Brooklyn navy
yard TO have all the vessels that are
undergoing repair there ready for sea
duty by the end OF the week. The
vessels are to join the ships Of the
north Atlantic squadron. and the work
of making the necessary repairs to
them is being hurried.
The only ship now at the navy yard
that will not join the squadron is the
Indiana. She is in bad condition, and
the hull below the water line is very
foul. There is no dock available in
which to put the vessel for the needed
repairs. The department is i'm such n
shape that the British government will
he asked TO allow the navy department
the use Of the dock at Halifax, as it is
the only one in which the Indiana can
be hoatcd.
This will be the first time the gov
eminent has been compelled to ask n
foreign government for the use of n
dry dock in which TO place one of its
ships for repairs. The officers would
not discuss the subject further than
to say that ii was u most bitter pill for
the department to swallow.
The new dry dock, which was dam.
aged some time ago, aud which is now
undergoing repairs, will not be ready
for use for about six months.

Roman Remains In England.

Ambitious country English archmolo-
gists find so many Roman villas that i,
is sometimes difficult to be satisfied as
TO their authenticity. Certain remains,
however, OF q Roman residence of some
~pretensions have been lately found at
South Darenth, in Kent. The locality
would be about the right one because
the remains of the villa were found two
miles from that great military Roman
road known as "Watling street" The
pavement of a portico was found, with
the tesselated floor of the Atrium.
There were household baths in good
preservation. Careful research showed
the tiles of a hypocaust, with the llues
in the walls, for heating the rooms.
Among the smaller things there were
boar spears, axes bracelets, rings, buck
les and ivory pins, with coins of Tetri-
Gus CA. ID. 270). A small glass unguent
bottle of elegant form vas among the
pieces. The villa, from its foundations,
must have been n large one.-M. y

THEY WERE LOYAL.
The Tenantry of Ireland Debts Away
Paid.

The Rev. II. C. White, who has hao
much to do with the poorer tenantry of
Ireland, says that it was very seldom
that he was disappointed by not receiv-
ing again the sums he had lent to poor
immigrants, says the Youths Companion.
In one case several members of a large
and poor family had immigrated on the
money furnished by him and punctually
repaid their debts. One brother had
been three years in America before the
$l7, borrowed for his passage money,
was refunded.
When his brother brought it | asked
if the lad in America had sent anything
TO help his old mother.
Not a farthing," said the brother.
How long is it since you heard from
himP"
The man stammered and hesitated.

"Oh, yes"

he owned that the letter had come
two months before, but declared that he
gould not bring the money sooner.
Now / see how it is" | said, "you
have used the money your brother sent
to repay his debt and have speculated
upon it in some way. Suppose you had
failed in your speculation l should then
have believed that your brother had
broken faith with me-"
mo, sir, / would never have let my
brothers promise be broken!"
"Have you your brothers l~etterp' ]
asked. Let me see it, for, though
know you are not dishonest about the
money, see you have not spoken the
truth"
The poor fellow turned pale.

TlLLMAN WAS ANXIOUS TO SPEAK
Allison Puts the Bars Up and the
Sena Sustnins
Hin,

Washington, July 24.-The senate has
passed tine house bin authorizing the
president TO suspend discriminating du-
ties imposed on foreign vessels and
commerce. Allison moved then to pro-
coed with the tariff conference report,
but Tillman contested this with a mo-
ton TO take up his resolution, adversely
reported yesterday, for the investiga-
ton Of alleged senatorial speculation in
sugar stock. Tillman was about to be-
gin a speech when Allison made n point
of order that h debate was not In or
der and the presiding officer sustained
the point. Tillman ~thereupon asked the
yea and nay vote, on which his motion
was lOst-ycas IL, nays 30. Those who
voted for the motion were: Allen, Ba-
con, Bate, Berry, Cannon, Chiffon. Clay,
Harris kenney, Mills, Roach, Tillman,
Early. Turner and Walthall.
a joint resolution was passed for the
erection of a government building at
the Omaha exposition. Consideration
of the conference report was resumed.
Teller took the floor. He said he did
not favor the pending bin, did not be-
lieve it would accomplish the purposes
Of its friends. It's passage, however,
would enable congress to devote tie at
tention to other subjects. He regarded
the money question paramount. The
last campaign was an Endorsement Of
the gold standard. A great many peo-
pie who voted for the republican candi-
date did not believe in the gold stand
ard, but felt the tariff more important.
Teller declared the political methods Of
the last campaign were the most re-
markable in our history. A system of
terrorism, deception and fraud, the like
OF which was never before seen, was
put In operation. He expressed the fear
that, having been successful in this,
such methods would become a perma-
nen part OF our political system until
the people were aroused m re~pudlated
then. If anyone challenged these state
men s, Teller said, he would go into de-
ia Is.
