pare the colored youth for the practical
RESPONSIBILITIES OF life, teaching them
something that Will be useful to them In
gaining q livelihood. and at the same
time affordins them an opportunity OF
polishing themselves with any, OF the
accomplishments they may desire. Tha
scope OF the school cannot be better
Illustrated than quoting the following
from u circular accompanying the cuta-
logue. and addressed to the colorcd
youth OF the state. In part It says: 3.
do you want an education? 2 DO you
want to learn trade? Is 1t your in
t.ntlon to make your mark In the world
or drudge through life In a useless I'M
certain way? Opportunities await you
II You will only fit yourself to accept
them. The times demand complete men
and women and It is the purpose OF the
West Virginia colored Institute to con-
tribute Its share in supplying the de-
mand.
We have an excellent course in agr-
culture. Do you want oilearn scenti-
( flc farming? Would you make two
crops grow where one has previously
grown, come to the institute and learn
how this can be done. x.
Z Would you like to be carpenter,
blacksmith. O printer, q bricklayer, a
shoemaker, II SO. come here ana the. op-
portunity can be secured free Of charge.
We will give next year. a special
course In drassmnklng. We are pre-
pared TO admit pupils to this depart
ment to learn the trade. and take no
other studies provided such pupils have
completed the common branches. We
shall also arrange to allow pupils to
take two or three studies and devote |
the remainder Of the time to dressuak-
ing"
While higher education is all right,
those Of the colored population who |
cannot spare the time to pursue such a
course will be better equipped for 4
successful career by taking the practi-
cal courses offered them at this school,
and the Intelligencer commends the in
stitute to the patronage Of those mem
beers Of the colored race in this state
who have the ambition to make more
out of themselves than "hewers OF wood
and drawers Of water" ;ls.3E

means to have gone to the Kansas City

MED him at the indianapolis conference.
That was the cave OF AduIam to which
he should have taken his grievances.
"lt Is no wonder" says the Pittsburgh
Times, that the conference failcl To-
take any advice from man who has
stuitifed himself like Mr. Hatdeman.

has nevertheless upheld the dlsfran-

The Main Question.

Don't discard the thought for mo-
ment that the financial question is not
again the paramount issue In this cam
paign. as 1t was In 1895. All the ei:-
ments that rallied to the standard OF 10
TO ] four years ago are grouped around
the man who led those forces then, AMI
who Is leading them now. And II mt,st
be remembered that the gold standard
basis which has been entrenchad In the
law OF the land by the Republicans Is
money laws OF the country. There are
other things to be done yet 10 bring our
currency system up to that complete
ness which shall challenge the world
for Its stability. The complement OF
the gold standard law must be cur
rcncy law that will respond to the sea-
sonal and sectional demands by better
distribution Of the loanable funds avail
able for the commerce OF the country.
The best pledge OF this accomplish
ment Is found in the monetary plank Of
the Republican platform. which Is in
the interest OF the borrowers OF money
for lowering and equaliz!ng the rates
OF interest by better distributing the
loanable funds for Sectional and sea-
sonal needs without Its being done ut
the expense OF the lenders OF money"
In other words, the Republican party
responds to the appeal OF the borrowers
OF money by declaration OF safe and
scientific legislation. and 1t wholly re-
1ects the fallacious plans OF the Popu-
listic-Democratic party.
The Republican party does not com.
NIT Itself to the details OF any plan OF
legislation. The Congress must deal
with details rs 1t did In the enactmcn,
OF legislation for the establishment OF
the gold standard. There !s no longer
any excuse for charging the Republican
party with being too close to the money
power. The party stands for the Dor.
rover as we'll as the lender OF money,
without preference OF one over another.

A writer In the Baltimore Manufac-
turers' Record makes this pertinent OBJ
servation of grave omission OF the
trainers OF Colonel Bryan's platform:
There Is one thing which they left out
of the Kansas City platform. and that
is. in favoring free silver, 16 to l. they
should also favor free lunch. u to /.
Free silver, 16 to l, means chaos in
finance, stagnation in business, bank
ruptcy for banks. closing down OF fac

people out of employment, and there

W0MEN'S PAY IN RUSSIA.
Those Who Work for q Living Get
Small Remuneration for Their
Services.

Can women practice law in Russia ?"
The question was asked of Miss Alice
serber, the woman lawyer, by o writer
In Success. Miss Serber replied:
20, no! the great majority Of the
men of my native land would be hor-
rifed at the idea. The women of Rus
Eia who desire or are forced to work
for their living can become dressmakers
at dollar and half TO two dollars q
week; they can be school teachers at
little more. None of the professions
is open to them, except medicine, and
for this they must have certain high
status in society, and must have large
means to defray the great expenses Of
the women's course at the university.
There is a considerable number of
women doctors in Russia. but most OF
them studied and obtained their diplo-
mas in Switzerland, where the atti-
tude toward ambitious women is much
more liberal than in the domains of
the car. A woman servant in Russia
Is doing well to receive $50 a year for
her services. The wives and daughters
OF the peasants work harder than the
men. They bear nearly an equal share
in the labor of the fields, and in ad-
dition have all their household duties
to attend to-"

Beers Coming 10 America.

Hundreds OF Beers with their fami-
lies are fleeing from the country OF
their birth to begin life again in some
other 'c0unJry. Most Of these have
America as their ultimate destination.
The refugees are not paupers 10 any
sense. They are taking passage in
French and German ships and are
willing to pay for the best accommc-
dations. Special trains are engaged
to meet the ships at Marseilles and
carry them through France TO Hol-
land, their motherland, which is their
first stopping place in their search
for new fortunes. But Holland is
overcrowded and is only temporary
asylum. The name America is on
every lip and little children bidding
gOOd.by to their playmates speak
vaguely Of America and their new
home.

Marques last week carrying l,20O
