Every body 10 toe court room knew

Then his hand stole out and be opened

The nineteenth century came in with
a great religious awakening. The
great revival Of 1900 came to the
yourg republi; when religious life was
nearly extinct, and immortality OF all
kinds prevailed. In 1882 there were
but two Christian students at Prince.
ton, and in 1875 at Yale the college
church was well nigh abandoned. The
general assembly Of 1898 bewalled the
evils that everywhere corrupted society.
Then came the gracious awakening.

saved the American people from
destruction, and set the churches Of
Christ on q career OF spiritual life and
activity from which they have never
departed. Beginning as early as 1897,
the revival was at its height in 1900.
From that time there has been a glori-
Gus succession OF the ''times of refresh.
ing" The changed condition in the
churches is shown in the narratives of
the assemblies 10 the first year Of the
century. In 1904 the assembly SAID
"The extraordinary influence of the
Divine Spirit has spread over new and
extensive countries. New churches are
forming with astonishing rapidity, and
numbers r almost daily added to the
church."
The great reyivals changed the
moral aspect Of the country. Religion
became an essential and influential
part Of the general public sentiment.
1t quickened the life Of the nation in
literature and IN education. 1t inspired
those great movements, Bible, Tract
and Sunday school societies; and out

laborer more efficient. more skillful

formerly, and the object lessons pre-
sented by thousands Of graduates OF
colleges and dairy schools, the teach
ings Of Farmers Institutes and Of the
agricultural press are stimulating the

plane. Machinery is also credited With
q large influence in this direction, mas
much as Il shortens the hours OF labor
and makes farm work more intelligent
and to a less extent mere drudgery.
The common laborer on the farm,
however, including the transient help
10 harvest and the less intelligent OF
the foreign element, does not appear
to be improving in efficiency Indeed
il is declared to be less reliable and
less valuable than tho native farm
laborer Of a former generation. 1t is
shown also that while farm laborers OF
the better class are apparently receiv-
ing lower wages than persons Of the
same intelligence and skill receive in
town employments, they really save
more money, have more comforts and
fewer anxieties and have 4 better OPP
portunIty to secure homes and social
position. Many cases are cited as
where iaborers have gone to

few years of struggle there, have

Prospects for Land xonOpOly.

Prom the Live Stock Indicator.
A recent investigation Of American
farm labor conditions has been made
by the industrial commission OF the
general government, the effort being
made TO cover all parts Of the country,
which reaches some very interesting
conclusions. Among other things, the
fears Of land monopoly and the pre-
dominance Of the tenant class are
found 10 be without foundation. The
assumed increase Of tenant farmers
upon which this fear rests Is declared
to be chiefly In the south where about
three-quarters Of a million Of farm
laborers are reported as tenant farmers
and are so In name only, simply be-
cause they are averse to personal
supervision and control and desire to
do az they please during their hours Of
labor. The same class Of persons in
the north would be farm laborers only.
In the North the tendency appears 10
be away from land monopoly, the farms
becoming smaller every decade, the
bonanza farms being broken up, large
tracts beng s~ubdivided, ETC., and
while. there appears to be some increase
OF tenancy, II has not been due, 10 the
majority o.. leases, to the profit which
land holding for tenant occupancy
affords. 10 some cases men have
rented their improved farms in order
to take up, 10 a speculative spirit,
fresh, cheap lands. Farmers who have
become prosperous, as they advance In
years, 90 to town to educate their
children and to live lives Of greater
ease, leaving the farm in the care Of a
sou, perhaps, who is counted In the
census reports as a tenant farmer.
There Is no permanent tenant class.
nor Is there likely TO be. The capable
farm laborer becomes a tenant al one
stage Of his development, bat tenancy
Is temporary with him and he eyentu.
ally, as a rule, becomes a proprietor.
One Of the things which the report
finds in evidence during its invesliga.
ton ia that many farmers in prosperous
circumstances are growing weary Of
occupying the land. and one Of The
reasons for this is inequality Of
taxes, arising especially from a full
assessment Of all the farmers property,
which R easier found and Of the visible
kind, while other forms OF wealth
escape. At the same time there
a Tendency toward country life
,ounterbalaucing this, the tendency
enterprising and active men Of
intelligent and progressive views IN
-egard to the possibilities Of scientific
agriculture, TO removc from town to
be country and become farmers.
On the question Of the wages Of farm
