There must have been chilly and lone
some days for David Bennett Hill when
he boldly declares, after all these months
OF silence, that he voted for william ].
Bryan for president, that he is not a
skulker, that he is still a democrat; yea,
a silver democrat, a Chicag platform
democrat, and only such a democrat
must be nominated for governor and
United States senator in New York. 1t

OLD FOLKS CONCERT.
Auditorium Of Adams Square Baptist
Church Was Well Filled

Few entertainments have ever been
presented in the Adams Square Baptist
Church that have attracted so large au-
diences as that of Thursday evening,
when an old folks concert was given.
The "old folks were about twenty in
number and occupied seats upon the
platform, where their infirmities and
peculiar styles of dress could be we'll
seen. They were attfred in all sorts of
ancient and Anticipated costumes.
George Washington, Queen Anne, La
fayette and host Of other distinguished
personages of many. years ago were
represented in the oddly-attired gather
ing upon the stage. 2
The chorister was Thomas Walters,
Jr., and, as usual he was very anus
ing in his part. The quartet part of
the program was rendered by the
church quartet, while the chorus was
made UP mainly from members of the
Sunday school, with a little outside as
sistance. The affair wAs in charge of p.
w. Wood.

r Former Senator George F. Edmunds
was a tough customer for the sflveFttss
to handle, when he testified before the
committee on banking and currency in
behalf of the Indianapolis currency re-
form bill. 1t is a great pity that his
strength of argument and the forceful
and direct simplicity of his speech are
no longer to be heard in the United
States senate. His wise counsel and
power for good can i'll be spared.

FRIDAY. JANUARY IA. 1895.

Boston now has a fresh bone to pick
with New York. A tablet has been set
up in the New York post office to COM
memorate the old liberty pole in the
defense of which "the first martyr
blood Of the American revolution was
shed. January IS. ITO" That was about
two months earlier than the treasured
Boston massacre" Hence the present
manifestations of rivalry and general

The overseers of Harvard College hav-
ing voted to ask the legislature to ex-
tend the suffrage so that graduates of
the professional schools or the graduate
courses may vote for overseers, five
years after graduation. the vote solicit
ed of the alumni becomes merely a re-
quest for a perfunctory expression of
opinion In fact, it was only that in the
first instance, since tine power to act in
this matter rests legally with the over
seers- themselves There were some
honored names recorded against the
proposition, though President Eliot him
self headed the proponents, who may
be described as the liberal party. In
a general way, the argument in favor
of the innovation is that it will carry
out more effectually tine university idea,
extend and enlarge the personal interest
in the university "a much desired end,
in view of the time-hunored reproach
that Harvard is only Massachusetts

professional schools but without the
cherished "a. B. Harv." attached to
their names. The adverse criticisms
made by Dr. Samuel A. Green and
Charles Francis Adams, after the meet
ing of the overseers, suggest those
amusing letters which Oliver Wendell
Holmes wrote to James Russell Lowell
about ~Our young president" when
Eliot first began to rattle the dry bones
and shatter traditions at the faculty
meetings, If the alumni have any pref
erences In the matter, they should ex-
press them by Feb. 81. Their views
should have influence with the Iegisla-
ture.

county school of music, examining the
voices of candidates for positions in the

presented thenselves-10 sopranos, 8
altos. 8 tenors and BASES. In quality
they were Of medium excellence There
was some disappointment that there
were not more tenors in the number
but, ON the whole, the committee feels
satisfied with it's first draft of new

Invention has produced thousands Of
machines that perform labor which
before had been done by hand. 1t has
gone far beyond that in putting ma
chinery where animal power had be-
fore been the chief agency in communl-
eating motion. And still further: The
overshot, the breast and the 1utter
wheel have gone with other wrecks OF
the past, and steam and electricity
have taken the place of gravity and
water. But the field of labor is i'm
measurable, and much as men may
feel the inconvenience of being dis
placed by machinery, the displacement
will continue to the end. This Is the
natural order, as the history of our
own growth has amply proved.
The number of hands employed in
manufacturing industries in 1850 was
957. $50. increased to 4,050,78 in 1890.
This shows a growth of more than four
to one in forty years. The value or
the work done increased in greater
proportion, though the prices for the
things produced fell considerably in
The meantime. The value of the out
put of the manufacturing establish
nents of the country in 1850 was re-
ported at $1,019, 106,616, made from
materials that cost $555, 123,S22. One
dollars worth of material was wrought
into two dollars worth of useful ar
ticles. In 1890 our factories turned
more than nine times as much in value
as they did in 1850, though the num-
Der of hands employed in the work
had only been quadrupled. But wages
paid for the work had increased from
1896, 1855, AGA in 1850 to $1,799671, 492 in
1890.

Strong Feeling OF Discomfort Over the
Presidents Lack of Haste
WASHINGTON, March ga number
of senators and representatives of
both parties conferred with the Presi-
dent at the White house last night.
1t is said that the opinion expressed
by most of those who talked with Mr..
Mckinley was that Congress was in
clined to object to further delay
toward settlement of the Spanish
situation and that unless the next
message to Congress was more
definite the radical members
could not be held in check. At
the meeting of the Senate committee
on foreign relations Wednesday Sena.
tor Frye will move that the commit.
tee remain in contiu uous session until
the questions relating to the Maine,
Cuba and Spain are settled. Mr. For
aker will introduce to-day reso.
luton recognizing the independence
of Cuba.
After the adjournment of the House
LneTc was
over n proposed consolidation of the
forces in the House who favor some
form of immediate action on the
Cuban issue.
There was strong feeling shown
over the avoidance in the message of
any outline of definite administra-
ton policy, and decided disposition
apparent not to await any further
delay nor resort to temporizing meas
ures.
The project to furnish ad libitum
relief supplies to the Cuban non-com-
batants is meeting with opposition to
which members on both sides of the
House have given voice in private dis
cussion, on the ground, first, that
Spain alone is responsible for the con
ditions on the island, and, second,
the extending of such large and prob
ably continued aid abroad is unjust to
the people of this country
The steps taken on this line were OF
an informal nature. Representative
Hull of Iowa, chairman of the Hous e
committee on military affairs, is lead
ing the movement for prompt action.
