utter idleness. The Kafflrs are very
prolific lot, and II left to idleness would
soon overrun the country with predatory
and irresponsible hordes which would
constitute an active menace to the well
fare Of the entire section. Drought or
plague Of locusts, both OF which are COM
mon enough in the country, would mean
famine which England would be bound
to relieve. Garriso would be neces-
sary at all times to insure peace ana
safety.
Seemingly. the only wise solution Is one
which would be emphatically objection
able to the mine operators. That would
lie in the establishment Of Kaffir COM
munites in the vicinity Of the mines, in
place OF the present compound system,
and in the payment of wages which
would enable the laborers to maintain
their families in comfortable homes.
This, however, could be done only by
long and tedious process OF devel-
opm ent, the evolution of race by
training it to habits Of industry. But
the gospel of ten hours day makes only
feeble appeal to the Kafflr. He wants
very little-and gets it. He sees no
reason why he should work many hours
each day to get something that he does
not want. His argument is essentially
logical. England's first duty to herself
and to him may be the finding of some
thing which the Kafir does want or can
be made to want, and then following it
up by making him want it very much.
But the creation OF wants and OF purpose
to crafty them is work Of time. Mean
while the mine owners have their wants
fully developed. They want men to go
down into the mines.
Evidently, England's broad problems
Of the determination OF the future OF
hundreds Of thousands Of her subjects,
and of the conservation Of her vast
interests in South Africa, are essentially
inharmonious with the immediate inter-
ests of her subjects who are stock
holders in the Transvaal gold mines. Her
victory over her Boer opponents may
have brought with it a proprietary in
terest in Kaffir hornets nest.

practically the solution, so far as 1t is
brought about, will be in immigration
to this country, until the United States,
instead of Russia, becomes the home OF
the majority of the race in the world.
This prospect imposes on the American
Jews responsibility the gravity OF which
their leaders fully recognize. Mr..
ScH1rr would not seek TO lessen this load
because of It's heaviness. The doors
must be kept wide open TO all Jews who
wish to come here, he said on sunday
He is indignant at the suggestion that
Jewish immigration should be regu-
lated" The problem Of Jewish lmmi-
grafton must solve ITSELF" he declared
and the great numbers and consequent
political Importance of the Jews already
in this country seem to give assurance that
the working out of thatsolution Will not De
interfered with by Congress, and that the
present total Of perhaps one million and
a half Jews in the United States will be
doubled during the next quarter OF a
century, even if not much sooner; for IN
the short period since 1880 the additions to
their number must have amounted TO
about a million. The more numerous
they become the less likely will be legis-
ton hostile to their increase and the
more self-sufficient will they be in the
face of the prejudices against them al
legged by Mr.. LAUTERBAcH, prejudices
which, az we have said, are reciprocated
by them; at least. 30 far as concerns
opposition to race mixture"

The majority must rule sooner or later
in this country, and regularly, through
formal statutes, whatever the mob says.
If the mob launches a policy of which
the essential aim commends itself to
general approval, that policy will be for
mally taken into the legal system.
Various methods of government are
now being proposed, and they all must
be passed upon. For example, do the
mass of people desire such govern
ment as is illustrated by the trolley riot
ers of Bridgeport, wherein all regula-
tons Of popular conduct must be made
from day to day by any crowd that
gathers sufficient assurance to say how
things shall be done and to back their
views with physical force? The alterna-
tive is the existing system, under which
a mans rights are defined by the entire
people, acting through their representa-
tives, calmly and deliberately.
All over the country groups OF men are
seeking to make the regulation Of all
labor by the principles OF unionism 80

privileges, its scope and it's scale. Would
the public rather have that than the ex-
listing Government, which permits men
to take advantage Of their own talents
according to certain simple principles OF
equal rights? 1t Is proper to say that
no country has ever yet been run on the
union plan.

the man with special genius for organi-
cation and economy and progress in in
dustry. The prevailing effort in the
labor world is to transfer the manage
ment of American business from super
intendents of his character and authority
to workingmen's assemblies, in which
the skilled and the unskilled laborers
possess equal voices and, together. have
the power to control and direct the
Captains.
Speaking from our knowledge of the
American people and their ways. we can
not believe that any one OF these at
tempted revolutions will succeed. The
old ways started the many enterprises
that have hourished during the last few
years and the new ways are already be-
ginning to close them up. The old ways
will not be discarded,

Herniy.

Mr.. E. r. THoMAs's purchase Of the
racehorse Hermis for the record price
in these parts OF $4,000 may well at
tract widespread attention. When, last
month, Mr.. THOMAS signalized his in
tention to open stable by securing from
Mr.. JOHN E. MADDEN, for $4,000, the
three-year-old Top Gallant colt Onatas,
he declared that he hoped to own, before
the close Of the summer, at least half
dozen of the best thoroughbreds in train
ing. Shortly afterward he acquired the
three-year-old Henry of Navarro colt
Yardarm, and later the wo-year-old
filly Dimple. For the latter, Mirthful
offspring, he is reported to have paid
$4,000. And now he has got Hermis,
acknowledged to be the foremost racer
in the United States.
Sixty thousand dollars is big price
to pay for racehorse; but, as horses
and purses go, few will say that Mr..
THOMAS has erred in giving that sum for
this son of Hermence. In fourteen races
last year Hcrmis failed only once, as they
say, to land in the money" In ten
of his starts he finished first; once he was
second. and twice third. Among the
horses he defeated were such well-known
champions as Advance Guard, Blues,
Articulate, Gunfre and Herbert.
Hermis undoubtedly possesses the two
requisite qualities which, combined,
mark the racehorse Of the first degree,
namely, the ability to sprint and also
to race, with great weight, over a dis
lance. And to these qualities he comes
by birth. Hermence, his sire, was
descended from the stout Isonomy, by
Sterling, and the flying Thebais, by
Hermit.

The Abbreviated Kaiser,

The Hon. WILLIAM EMERSON BARRETT,
sometime q Representative in Con-
gress and still the proprietor Of that
ancient Boston institution, the Adrer-
tiser, and it's modern L, the Record. is the
greatest common abbreviator. He has
a passion for authorizations. He would
describe himself as an e1-Cong.' or
ex-Rep." Strange and even horrifio
words! When he refers to his career as
young journalist in St. Adams, he
speaks Of ex-ass. ed. BARRETT He
also describes himself as "ex-mem.
Mass. Leg" The Latin translations of
honorary titles and memberships OF
learned societies in the old Harvard
triennial were not more puzzling or
fascinating study than is e1-Cong.'
BARRETT's collection Of curtal words.
Mind you, we are far from blaming his
zeal. Logic is logic; that's all he says.
He follows the convenient principle of
abbreviation as far as 1t will so. And
why not? The Hon. GEORGE FRIsBIE
HoAR looks a little strange under the
masque of Sen. HoAR," but logic is
logic and usage may go hang. If you
can talk of Gov. BATES" why can't
you talk of "a Sen. LODGE -? The way to
abbreviate is to aLbreviate. Prof"
CHILD is regular and unquestioned.
Who but the fnical will kick at Tut
FLYNT or Pres" ELIOT or Pres
ROOSEVELT? "Ex-Cong.' BARRETT holds
that every title Of honor or Office is SUBJ
ject to abbreviation. Time is money
and letter saved is penny earned.
Shall we be afraid to say May" Low?
Why, in Boston Big Chief DEvERY is
called DEvERY, B. c."
There is an even more signal instance
Of Barrettian brevity. Our red-faced

RIG ADVANCE IN VEGETABLES.
The Drought Is Causing Serious Shortage
The Prices.

The long drought is causing a shortage
Of vegetables. Prices have been going
up by leaps and bounds, and a few days
more Of dry weather will lift them out of
sight Of the ordinary consumer.
Inquiries at the markets and wholesale
houses show that the supply Of garden
produce ia falling far behind the average
Only certain vegetables that are imported
from the South remain available in ordinary
quantities. Tomatoes, for instance, stand
as a glorious exception. No one need
deny himself dish Of them on account
Of increased prices. They are cheaper
this year by 80 cents basket than they
were last year.
The great staple products grown on Long
Island. Staten Island and in Jersey are
spinach, lettuce and radishes, and the sup
ply has become very small. For instance,
a Long Island farmer who usually delivers
from eighty-fve to ninety head of lettuce
every other day to retail dealer in this
city is not raisiny enough now to make
trip to town worth while.
The necessity Of finding substitutes has
so increased the demand FOR old potatoes,
rs to 40 per cent in prices has resulted
The cost OF living to those who use vege-
tables largely has been increased nearly
one-fourth in a few weeks.
Some Of the increases in prices are:
Old onions, quart, from to 10 cents;
lettuce, head. from ~, cents to and 10
cents: pie plant, from to S cents; aspara-
gus, from 20 to IS cents; beets from 3 and
to s and cents; cucumbers, from to
cents; pease, by the peck, from 30 to so
cents; carrots, from to cents; spinach.
peck, from rs to 40 cents; string beans,
quart, from is to rs cents; old potatoes.
peck, from Is to IS cents
Potatoes will probably advance a nickel

expected to advance slightly.
