1t is estimated by experts that in the
great steel strike the loss to the strikers
in wages amounted to ten million dollars,
while the earnings of the trust were cut
down fifteen millions. This statement,
however creates a somewhat erroneous
impression. as it conveys the idea that
the trust lost more than the men did. As
a matter of fact, 1t is not certain that
the trust lost anything. In the main its
earnings were only postponed and the
strike may easily have the effect of
strengthening the iron and steel market.
But the lost wages are gone forever. and
what is more important the men could
not afford the loss. while the trust could,

The Assnssin's Fate.

The trial of the late President Mckin-
ley's assassin was closed yesterday af-
ternoon, the prisoner being found guilty
of murder in the first degree. Thus. in
two days, case of national and inter
national Importance has been disposed
of with all legal rights accorded to the
accused, with his legitimate interests
defended by distinguished leaders of
the local bar; but without the slight
est approach TO sensationalism or pet
tifogging at the counsel table.
The country is to be congratulated
upon the character and speedy termina-
ton of the trial. The Buffalo court,
the district attorney, and the Bar AS
sociation of Erie County, as we'll as
the gentlemen the latter proposed for
the defence, are all entitled to the un-
stinted praise of the American people.
They have enabled US to see that an
assassin can be tried and convicted
without the creation Of spectacle cal
culated to make the administration of
stern justice look like a hideous farce
The trial of Mr.. Mckinley's murderer
must be taken as a model of its kind.
What a pity it is that the trial of
Guiteau could not have been like it.

1t was at Compiegne. where the Car Is
being entertained, according to the Paris
Figaro" that the King of Rome, the Eag-
let. granted the first, petition that was
presented to him. lis, had reached the
mature age of six months when an old
soldier who had already received many
favors from the Empero-. decided that he
wanted more, and thought ii would be a
coed scheme to address his petition 20 the
heir to the throne, and thus work on Ma
poleon's sympathies. lie addressed his pc
tftion to his Majesty the King of Rome.
Napoleon smiled when he read the ad-
dress. and ordered the Duke Of Frioul to
TO him. This was done with due solemnity
ana state, and the Duke returned to the
Emperor What did HIS Majesty say?"
asked Napoleon. "Nathing." replied t.o
Duke. Silence gives consent" sJid the
Emperor. See that this old rascal of a
soldier gets what he wants.

No doubt exists that swearing is a
rather common habit, and anything that
will tend to lessen it is to be commended
The custom is pretty well developed in
this country, but 1t has either not gone to
such lengths or they are more sensitive
in this respect on the other side, judging
from the rather extraordinary measures
taken to repress it. In Switzerland and
Germany. for instance. they have been
using what are called ''curse-cards" to
check profanity. Those interested in the
project are said to so about with pack
ages of these cards, and whenever they
hear bad language they present one of
them to the swearer to sign. on the card
is printed n promise by which the party
taking the pledge, as it We're, agrees to
stranSle all oaths for certain period
and for every infraction of this self-im-
posed obligation to pay a small sum to
some charity. That the Switzers are not
as careful in the three languages spoken
there as they could be is evident from
so 600 of the cards having been given out
in that section alone.

the Montpelier school board is stir.
red up over public criticism about the
way in which the city schools are
managed. The conditions in the
Capitol City are undoubtedly much
the same as in every other town.
Parents take too little interest in
them. They are usually quite ready
to remain on the outside and abuse
the hardworking, faithful teacher for
doing things which they know moth
ing about except from hea,say. 1t is
the duty ofevery parent to visit the
schools and keep in touch with the
methods by which their children are
gaining the foundation for their life
work. The interest they take in
these matters gives enthusiasm to
the preceptor and lends encourage
ment to the pupil. The parent is
usually more responsible for the mis-
chevious actions of the boy or girl at
school than is the teacher.
