Boston. Mass. Sept. 22-Replying TO a

on any proposed tariff revision, Senator
Warren OF Wyoming SAYS tonight:
NV observation is that the demand for
tariff revision comes mainly from those
who wish no tariff and who at all times
advocate doctrines wholly at variance

mands. The essential industries of the

back his words by a wager of money
becomes a means of protection to those
about him against the unpleasant talk
which is otherwise dinned into their
ears.
In this respect the practice of betting
has a function not unlike that which
was exercised by the practice of duellng
a century or two ago. In generations
past the blusterer was compelled to
make good his words by the wager OF
his life We have become quieter in our
temper at the beginning of the twen-
tieth century, and only demand that he
shall wager his money. But the prln-
ciple is the same in the two cases
This can be used to some extent as
theoretical justification for the practice
of betting 1t is, however. far more de-
fensible as a theoretical view than as
practical argument, for in actual life
betting fails to accomplish its object In
this respect also the parallel between
betting and dueling holds good The
duel checked irresponsible language on
the part of those who could not fight;
but to those who were ready to take
their lives in their hands il offered an
indemnity instead of restraint. In
like manner, the public intolerance of
betting allows those who have money to
wager to give themselves free indul-
gence in boasting. In betting, as in
dueling, the whole community suffers
under the evils of the practice without
realizing much of the theoretically pos
sible good.-The Century.

LABOR IN SOUTH AFRICA.
Scarcity of Efficient Men Retards
Progress.

The fact that native labor is now harder
to get than ever in South Africa IS retard-
ing the work of reopening the mining en-
terprises around Johannesburg. The
scheme which the mine owners have Oh
foot for surmounting the difficulty is in
teresting. for if it succeeds it will go far
TO solve the problem OF unskilled labor IN
South Africa, which has long been most
perplexing question The mining com
panies are building a large number OF
three-room cottages, and they hope to at
tract many thousands of unskilled work
men from England They believe that
workmen should be induced to emigrate
by the prospect of $1.25 a day and free
board and lodging from the time they ar
rive at the mines. They are suggesting
that the government should provide free
transportation to South Africa or those
who would like to go, and say they car
give employment to 10000 white men in
the mines of the Rand
The most vital question affecting South
Africa will be solved to the complete sat
isfaction of all if the employment of white
labor proves successful The distinctive
feature of South African life thus far is
that all unskitied labor is done by the
blacks Along the coasts where the eli
mate is hot and humid it is net easy for
white men to accustom themselves to
hard manual labor under the blazing sun !;
but this is not the main reason why all
the common outdoor work has been left to
the natives Slavery was not abolished till
1884. and in 800 years of its existence il
South Africa all white men lost the habit
of doing the ordinary work OF the town.
farm and ranch, and came to despise man
ual labor. The abolition of slavery was
one of the great grievances of the Beers
and one of the leading motives that led 10
the tricks into the wilderness and the
founding of the Independent Boer repub-
lies. Up to this day Boer or other
white man in South Africa Will perform
any unskilIed labor If he can get a black
to do 1T fer him. Indian coolies have been
brought into the country to do some OF the
common work, but there are only about
1900 of them, and their numbers are teo
few to help solve the question which is
becoming more serious with the increase
of work to be done and the growing .In-
willingness OF the Kaffirs TO do it.
The great trouble is that the blacks Of
South Africa do not care to work after
they have earned money enough TO buy
wife or two to till their garden patch
