"DANCE OF THE STARVING. j
An Odd Event Among the Poor O.
II Hungary. ,aszss

55z4%Gz.fs5 .5sE<s rs Hungary. *s5saS$
A striking article on the agricultural
condition in Hungary has just been
published in the Neues Wiener Journal,
under the title of .'tThe Dance of the
Starving" From this it appears that
the peasants Of the Alfoeld plain have
recently organized number of popular
balls, which have been attended by
thousands. This does not imply that
the people are particularly happy or
prosperous. On the contrary, owing
to the strike of last summer and the
bad harvest, their condition is one OF
great need. The dances are the result
of the bill passed in the Hungarian
reichstag for regulating the relations
between land owners and their labor
ers. That bill is regarded as excep-
tionally hostile to the latter. For the
]aborers, however, liberty of fspeech and
CT public meeting is so restricted as to
render Ill gatherings for political pur-
poses practically impossible. Hence
this stratagem OF popular balls. It is
pointed out that the accounts of these
peasant dancing parties are accom-
panied by the news Of acts of pillage
and strike against taxes, which have
rendered necessary the intervention of
the military. The present movement is
direct consequence of the harvest
strike of last summer, and of the meas
ures adopted by the government to pre-
vent it's recurrence. The obnoxious
bill, according to the Neues Wiener
Journal, delivers up the laborer to the
arbitrary discretion of his employer,
emitting the latter to put an end to
the agreement he has entered into, and
to withhold the wages he has agreed to
pay if the laborer should, in his opin-
ion, be socialist agitator. If the la
borer, however, should fail to appear
at the time and place appointed, the
employer is empowered to call upon
the authorities to force him to carry
out his contract. The laborer has no
legal remedy against this proceeding,
while the employer is assured of the
cooperation of the authorities in the
event of strike. Such Injustice as
this, as the writer remarks, might con-
vert a strike very easily into q rebel
lion.

According to a tailor who has had

with little study, to tell within little
what part of England a man comes
from simply by the color of his cloth
ing. Fawn is in great demand among
Lincoln people. In the southern coun-
ties, such as Cornwall and Somerset,
the preference is for navy blue. In
north Wales the native choice is for
light cloth of a yellow tint, but further
south you meet with dark shades of
brown. There is more black cloth sold
in Lancashire than in any other county,
excepting Middlesex, and yet in the ad-
joining counties north the public fancy
runs to draba and tweeds. Men who

also there.
AS the first member of the legislature
from m Lake county, Mr.. Nelson, We
believe, will give an excellent account of
himself, and any legislation demanded
by his constituents ts will be vigorously
and successfully pushed. Outside of
local legislation desired by Duluth, the
most imperative of demands on him
is in the interest of good roads in this
and Cook county. We believe he will
secure aio which will be of material
benefit in affording Cook county an out
lett winter. He has been promised q
place on several important committees.
Mr.. Ms experience in county matters
will be of benefit to him in his new
duties. He will be one of the active

bill, couceding that his county, too, had
| suffered under the former law OF Civ
| ing tho profits to such counties as had
| u deficiency in the amount OF school
tax received from ordinary purposes.
However, he thought that the schools
all over the State should be run for q
term OF five months, II it were pos
sibc.
Mr.. Rogers spoke at length in favor
OF the origtna! bill. He based his ar
gument upon the fact that Mr.. Simkins
had lost sight OF the condition that the
dispensary was q State, and not a coun-
ty institution, and that the State had
care for tho education of every child
within its borders. The burden OF cdu-
cation rests upon the entire State.
Mr.. Sawyer, Of Union, introduced m
amendment to Mr.. Simkin's amend
mcnt providing that the surplus in the
State dispensary profits be divided
among tho respective counties In pro-
portion to the amount OF profits de-
rived from the sale of alcoholic liquors
in the said respective counties. The
fOrcc OF this amendment is that such
counties as have dispensaries will OBJ
tain pro rata share OF the profits In
the State dispcnsary, while those coun.
ties having no dispensaries will get
mono OF the profits.
Mr.. Sawyer said that last year the
dispcnsary in his county had mado a
profit Of 81 900 for tho State and had
received from tho apportionmcnt OF
funds but $500. A sister county having
70 dispcnsary had received several
times that amount from the distribu-
tion. He thought that it was but fair
that each county have its own profits
for its own children,.and in those coun.
ties where there was no dispensary |
let the taxpayers go down into their
pockets to educate their children.
Mr.. Prince said that his county had |
mover received a dollar Of tho dispcn-
sary profits, and he denied that the |
county had over raised $3 per capita, |
~ the distribution WAS made upon the |
enrolment OF lS95, and tho attendance
had Increased considerably since that
time.
