this full amount were charged. 1t

TITEEY,

While the Republicans are very calm
ly and quietly going through the mo-
tions preliminary to nominating their
candidate for mayor the Democrats are
as active as feas and as noisy as a call
Hope. Their primaries were held last
night, and the vote broke the record. 1t
also broke some states, though it will be
impossible to tell just what was done
until after the convention. All the
pledges" may not be kept, you know.
The agitation of the Democrats is de-
cldedly interesting. 1t indicates that
they think they have at last got a
Glance and that there is great greed for
the spells that victory will bring. Mean
while the cause of good government
seems to maintain it's usual conspicu-
BUSINESS.

General George Fl. Ford, who has re-
tired from the presidency of the Cham
Der of Commerce, has been active and
earnest in office, and under his leader
ship the Chamber has been much more
wide-awake than it has been in some
periods of its long and honorable career
He has made a good record as presi-
dent. The new president, Mr.. Max Ad-
Ter, is one Of New Haven's very best
citizens, and his selection is a good
thing for the Chamber and for New
Haven. He is an able and successful
business man, uncommonly public-spir-
tied, and always ready to do his part
in good works. 1t will not be his fault
If the Chamber does not grow more and
more efficient and useful. He has al

ONE DUTY.

Some remarks made by the st. Paul
Pioneer Press, a good Republican pa
per, are attracting attention. They are
as follows: There Is one duty which,
before all others, is laid upon the Re-
publican party. And that is to prompt
ly repeal every protective duty under
the shelter of which it's benefciaries
have organized a trust or combination
of any sort to advance prices. The poll
icy of protection demands the unre-
stricted competition Of the domestic
producers as one of it's essential condi-
tons. 1t is its chief economic justifica-
ton. The purpose and effect of these
vast industrial organizations is to abol-
ducers. If they still maintained the
substantial benefits of competition by
reducing prices below the average I'M
der the regime of competition they
might fairly lay claim to tolerant con-
sideration. But when they abolish COM
petition in order to enhance prices they
plainly forfeit all claim to tariff protec-
ton.
True for you. If there can't be any
law made and enforced that will effec-
lively regulate the trusts the Republi
can party can at least refrain from CIV
ing them help in making higher prices.
This would be good politics as well as
good sense.

ton of hundred and twenty thousand
Armenians in and around that city, en- IN
gagged in manual and artisan labor as
house porters, street carriers, boatmen,
and petty traders. What with the Con-
stantinople massacres, the consequent
exodus, and the final deportation, there
other hundred thousand used to remit
money to their families in Anatolia.
Nearly half of them are dead, and the
rest are no longer supports of, but
rather burdens on, their families and
relations. To add to the troubles of the
race the Russian government is now en-
forcing an edict issued in May, 1893 re-
curing all Ottoman subjects of Ar
menian extraction to quit the provinces
of Baku, Kutais, Tifis Erivan, and
Kars within a year from the date of
its PRONUNCIATION. Several thousand
refugees are understood to be affected
by this order. The sufferings of old
and young Of both sexes, especially
widows and orphans who had sought
an asylum in Russia from persecution
in Turkey, are reported to be pitiable
in the extreme. Nor is this surprising,
since the former homesteads of the
refugees were burned or seized by
Kurds when their arabic and pasture
lands passed into other hands.

who are worth but ten thousand dollars
each! IT is therefore q serious calami-
| ty in churches as we'll as in govern
ments for few to grow unduly rich
while the many are growing distress
ingly poor. Approximate equality in
| respect to intelligence, culture and
wealth is indispensable to the highest
form of human goodness, and happi-
ness in this world We shall look in
vain for any earthly millennium in
the absence of that approximate eduali-
ty among mankind.
A SECRETARY of one of the benevolent
munication wrote me asking in sub
stance Did you not make mistake
in one of your counts? You say that
the Year Book shows that 70S churches
failed to contribute anything even for
self-support during the year 1897. But
on turning to the pages of the Year
Book for that year I find that many
of the churches which failed to report
anything contributed for self-support
that year were in fact strong, wealthy
churches, Does not this fact invalidate
your figures?" My answer to that
courteous brother was in substance
this, "All the churches you have in
mind were carefully deducted from the
total of non-reporting churches. A lib
eral allowance was also made to cover
possible mistakes in counting.
From the nature OF the case it is
quite possible that some errors could be
found in my figures but from the ma
ture of the case it is perfectly safe to
say that absolute accuracy in summing
up the official reports of the churches
as given in the Year Book would make
the showing worse rather than better.
In discussing these problems, I am
simply trying to accentuate the prac-
teal Importance of the official reports
of the churches, and to compel minis
tiers, churches, benevolent societies and
theological seminaries to pay some heed
to them in practical ways. IF these Of
ficial reports are to be persistently ig-
nored by all parties in interest what is
the use of gathering, and publishing
them? Is it not a foolish waste of
time, labor and money which could be
put to far better use?
