Certain solemn Republicans, with double
goggles and lugubrious countenances have
criticised NJ. Bryan for introducing some
flavor and humor. along with a penetrat-
Ing irony. in his addresses. They profess
to believe that an appreciation and Use Of
Wit is Incompatible with the dignity of a
candidate for the Presidency. These Puri-
tanical folk doubtless entertain the opin-
ion that smile should be punished with a
fine and that laughing should be made q
penal offence by Federal statute. Abra-
ham Lincoln thought differently.

Chinese Cheap Labor.

Wage earners of the United States
should carefully note the fact that the Re-
publican platform of this year contains no
procurement against Chinese cheap
labor; that the Chinese Exclusion act will
expire by limitation in 1902, and that Mr..
Taylor, Mr.. McKinley's Assistant Secre-
tary of the Treasury, is reported, in re-
cent interview, as saying:
There is no need for the Chinese Exclusion
law. should like to it abolished
so that the mongols could enter the same
terms as any other foreigner The hatred which
was formerly felt for the Celestals the Pacific
Coast has largely passed away. The Chinese
have proven themselves a most valuable and neces-
sary laboring element. Today they more
desired than white men for many classes Of
work, and command higher wages. Fruit men
and gardeners looking for the best w0rkmen to
be had. take the Chinese in preference to native
Americans The same thing is true to the
Cinnamon employed as domestics in households.
The only objection to them seems to be that they
stay here merely long enough to get stake be-
fore going back TO China to settle. They ac-
cimulate few thousand dollars and take the
money out of the country. They are, however,
obedient. law.abidng people. who are almost
never heard of as giving offence to their white
neighbors. Certainly ] should rather have a
Int of Chinese in the country than the scum OF
lover Italy or Roumanin. who have settled here
in he past few years"
Mr.. Taylor's remarks are quite in line
with the policy of trusts generally. which
is prohibitive tariff on all commodities
produced by the trusts and free trade in
and Republican Congress should be in
power for the next four years one does not
need to be prophet to warn American
workingmen that before the end of that
term they will find themselves confronted
by the yellow peril" at forty cents a
day. That. it should be observed, would be

out causing a scene he ran into the waiting
form Of DR.. Mary Walker. The latter held
him up for precious twenty minutes and,

Officers Promoted.

Washington, Dec. 2S.-Gen. Gilbert S.
Carpenter who was recently confirmed as
brigadier general in the regular army, has
been placed on the retired list on his own
application, after 30 years active service
His last service was i'll command OF the
Eighteenth infantry, in the Philippines.
He has been detached from further service
in the field and ordered home. His retire
ment leaves two vacancies in the list of
brigadier generals and results in promo
lions in every grade of the line, including
the promotion OF Lieut.. Col. Sannow OF
the Fourth infantry to be colonel of the
Eighteenth. The two vacancies in the list
of brigadier generals will be filled on the
reassembling of congress by the promotion
and retirement of several officers who have
distinguished themselves in action in the
recent wars.
1t is popularity supposed that Gems Mac
Arthur, Wilson, Lee, Wheeler, Bates
Young, Ludlow and Wheaton,, all of whom
hold volunteer commands, will be made
brigadier generals in the regular army
and that all but two of the number will
be Immediately retired.
Macarthur will undoubtedly be retain
ed in active service, but there is less Ger
tainty as to the identity of other genera
officers to be retained. The death of Gen
Lawton left vacancy in ..-e list of majo
generals of volunteers, which will be file,
by the promotion of either Bates, Younl
or Wheaton, all of whom are on duty il
the Philippines. These appointments vii
be made soon.

THE ARMY OF PiCkPOCkETS.
An Observaut Policeman Describes
Their Ranks and Methods.


Some men operate on the single

range their own ''frame-ups" personal
ly corner their victims) and keep all
the profits. There are few well-known
successful pickpockets of this order,
and they are rated high among their TEL
lows, but the more general custom Is for
what is called mob" of men to travel
together, one known as the tool doing
the actual picking and the others at
tending to the ''stalling."
A stall is the confederate of the pick
pocket who bumps up against people or
arranges them in such a way that the
pickpocket can get at their pockets.
Practically any one who will take a
short course Of instruction can learn
how to stall, but there are naturally
some who are more expert than others.
A tool who hires his stalls and makes
no division of spoils with them will
sometimes have to pay as much as SO a
day for skilled men. When he divides
what he gets, each man in the mob may
get an equal share or not, according to
prearranged agreement, but the tool Is
the man who does the most work.
or frst-class tools, men who are
known to be successful there are prob
ably not more than 1900 in the United
States. Practically every professional
offender has "go" at pocketpicking
some time in his career, but there are
( comparatively few who make a success
of 1t as actual plckpockets; the stalls
are numberless. Among the 1900 there
are some women and a fair proportion
of young boys, but the majority are
men anywhere from 20 to so years old
The total number of the successful anc
unsuccessful is 10000, 10000 or $4,000
as one likes. All that is actually known
Is that there is an army Of them, an'
one can only make guesses as to thei

Weldon, however. persevered, and got
on so well that, besides the service
named, he has already given a sermon
in the Bengal vernacular, which is the
one mostly spoken In the Calcutta
