CONTEMPORARY OPINION.
GROWTH oF A FAD.

OF late there has come into vogue a
fashion that has grown gigantic in its
proportions, and spread like an cpl
demic. We refer to the motto button
craze which has become so general as
to be positively alarming, for they are
used as a means of communication be-
tween young people and children, and
some of the phrases which these but
tons contain are so forcibly suggestive
of indecency that we think the time
has come to sound a note of warning.
Not that we would broadly condemn
all who wear these mischief-makers.
for many good and pure-minded young
people are just following the fashion,
and wearing the button that strikes
their fancy, ,orhas accidentally into
their possession, without even a
thought Of the disastrous consequences
which may possibly follow.
Imagine some of the ridiculous, not
to say serious. complications arising
from this fad. Picture a revival SER
vice in progress, the minister has lust
closed a feTvent exhortation and peni-
tents are coming forward to the altar.
down the aisle comes a young lady: as
she approaches the place Of prayer. the
man of God reaches forth and warmly
grasps the hand of the one whom he is
glad to welcome into the fold of Christ.
when, to his horror and embarrass-
ment, he beholds the seeker wears a
button containing the words. IF you
love me, squeeze my hand" He re-
covers from the shock, however. and
kneels to direct another penitent to the
way of truth, virtue and godliness. The
minister talks long and fervently. and
feels that he has perhaps helpfully in
structed the seeking one when the lat
ter raises his head and discloses this
on the lapel Of his coat: II have heard

moves to speak to another whom he
thinks wants salvation, but, glancine

BECAME TOO NUMBED TO SWIM

CRISFIELD, Md, Jan. 21.-Alfred ].
Baker, white, and Jefferson Foster, col
ored, were drowned at the mouth of
the Little Annamessix river Tuesday
evening at o'clock. The schooner
Ocean Bird was coming into the harbor
and ran ashore on James Island bar.
The vessel was light and had just
come from Rock Point. Captain Wes-
sells attempted at once to get his vessel
off, and for this purpose sent Baker and
Foster in a yawl with the anchor,
which was to be thrown in deeper
water, and the schooner thus heaved
off by means of the windlass. In at
tempting to throw the anchor over
board the two men had to go to the
stern of the boat, and their weight, to-
gether with the anchor, put the stern
under water When the anchor was
cast the boat filled with water and the
two men were thrown out. The two
men clasped each other and continued
to struggle until Foster was drowned.
IL is supposed that he could not swim,
as il is a startling fact that very few
colOred men, even though they may
follow the water, have this accom-
plishment Baker then struck out for
the schooner, but before he could reach
it sank and was seen no more.
Nothing could be done by the three
men on the Ocean Bird, as the yawl
was gone. A rope was thrown toward
Baker, but he was far cut of its reach

The men were only ten yards from
the schooner when drowned. Captain

came above water Baker grabbed the
yawl and the colored man grabbed him.

THE COUNTRY EDITOR

When comparisons are made. and
they often are, between city and coun-
try newspapers, they are almost always
unjust to the latter, for the fact is, it
takes man of much more ability to
run n successful country newspaper
than it does to do nine-tenths of the
work on a city one. In illustration Of
this fact, it is known to people fnan-
cially interested in country newspapers
that 1t is almost impossible to fill the
position of editor from those employed
on the city papers. We admit that su-
perior talent is required on city papers.
and that they frequently possess men
capable of running a country news
paper.
Men like these. however, cannot be
procured at any price which country
newspapers can afford to pay. and
when we get into the lower grade of
journalism in the cities we find. to use
an ordinary expression, no "all
around" men. The business Of news
paper making in the cities is divided
up in the same way that the mechani-
cal arts are. For instance, If we want
a house built in the country we 90 tc
a carpenter and he will do all the work
from the laying Of the sills to tn,
shingling of the roof. There are No
such carpenters in the city. II we want
house built there we employ I
builder, who hires one carpenter I,
make the frame, another to put on tn,
sides, still another to build the stairs
and so on through all the manifold
operations necessary to complete tn,
house.
Ii is the same way with the news

paper business in cities. IL is divided
up. each man being capable of perform
Ing his distinct duties but ignorant Of
those of others that are as important
to the making of the newspaper as his
own. Now and then there is bright
young man who comes in from the
country, that knows how to do it all,
and as a result, he rises step by step
to the top of the ladder and there he re-
mains. Almost without exception
those who manage the great news
papers in the metropolis were born and
educated in the country.

rnE cENsus RuREAu.

It is proposed to have permanent
census bureau established in Washing
ton. The plan is to have il continue
its work Of collecting statistics day by
day and year by year. as well Us emu
merating the population of the country
every ten years, as provided by the
Constitution This scheme has certainly
some advantages and has received the
endorsement of Labor Commissioner
Wright, who thinks it would greatly
improve the service. He also believes
that the cost Of the office for the entire
ten years would be no more than the
amount expended for taking the elev-
enth census.
This latter census cost the govern
ment $11 100000, and it would seem
that this sum should be sufficient to
cover the expenses of a permanent bu-
rcau. There is no doubt that the SER
vice would be greatly improved, for no
one can doubt that there is much loss
and waste of material in recognizing
once in ten years, while during the in
terim many materials of scientific value
which could be collected are lost.
This is to be considered and, while
there is every. reason to believe that a
permanent bureau with a force of train
ed men would cost no more, it is plain
that it would be OF very much greater
advantage to the government, espe-
cially as much of the material collected
would be of more value If obtained
yearly, than if left to accumulate for
ten years.
