that the white people of the South need
education and the benefit of civilizing
influences just about as much as the
negroes. This body of representatives
of the chivalrous South has refused to
pass bill prohibiting the employment
OF infants in the death dealing cotton
mills. By so doing they have placed
themselves on par with the China
man so far as civilization is concerned.
This inhuman traffic in little children
is equivalent to murder and continues
to flourish in spite of all attempts to
check it. What God-forsaken coun-
try the South must be-, where law
makers readily sanction the sale of
children to traffickers in human flesh,
and where the life of child is weighed
in the balance with greed for gold.

Stopped the Storm.

mechanical devices are now made
wonderfully real on the stage" said
the old stock actor. cit hasn't been
so many years ago since even the SIM
pie device of depicting a snowstorm
was regarded an achievement. 1 re-
member on one occasionI was out witha
company playing repertoire and in one
melodrama-I don't even now recall the
name-I took the part of an old man
whose daughter, the heroine, had been
abducted. 1 was supposed to be blind,
and my strong scene was in the third
act, when went out into a snowstorm
in search of my daughter. She was ly-
ing in drift, and hobbled across the
stage 1 kept crying: Me che-ild! Where
is me che-ildp'
swell, it was early in the season and
the play was the first attraction at that
theater. The scene painters had been
at work and had dropped several paint
brushes, hammers and other articles in
to the sheet that held the snowstorm.
AS the stage hands in the flies shook
the sheets to make the snow come out
couple of hammers came down and
just missed me by an inch. I was
blind and didn't dare to look up, but
when monkey wrench just grazed my
temple l had presence of mind enough
to yell: See yonder moon! The storm
is overP The stage hands took the cue
and let up on me, and the audience
never stopped to question how blind
man could see yonder moon."-Phila-
delphia Record.

that proprietor was to henceforth
consider that his employees were sus-
pected of "doing wrong till proved
they were doing right" and chaos
would at once supersede the rational
business methods now in vogue. Every
clerk would be under the impression
that he was suspected thief until it
suited the pleasure of his employer to
think otherwise. The fear of losing
his position would have a tendency to
demoralize the routine of any establish
ment. No one wants to occupy a position
under such circumstances. It is not
business, viewed from any standpoint.
Supposing merchant were to give a
young man responsible position, after
due deliberation as to his qualifications,
his standing and his habits, and then,
Immediately after assigning him to his
task, to suspect that "things were going
wrong till proved they were goingrig !"
would it not be queer business meth
ods? 1t would be like reading a chap
ter from topsy-turvy land. No sane
man would entertain Mr.. Spencer's
proposition. For to apply it in the prem
ise just cited, would be serious re-
Election upon the merchants judgment
as to his ability to choose trustworthy
employees. Not only would it be
downright foolishness to inaugurate
such doctrine under the above cir
cumstances, but it would be criminal
and establish feeling of dlstrust that
would surely prove disasterous in the
end.
Mr.. Spencer's theory would perhaps
prove beneficial in some cases, while in
others it would be dangerous propo-
sition under the most favorable condi-
tions. Let the directors of bank
work on the hypothesis shat things
were going wrong till proved they were
going right" and it might insure the
depositors against loss. If the public,
however, was to display as little conf
dence in the bank, as the directors
were to accord the cashier and book
keepers, it is easy to surmise what the
result might be. think that the safe
guards which are now in use will not
be discarded in order to test Mr.. Spen-
GERS idea, not in this generation at
least. S.

CbroWing the CaSsc.

"a mistaken impression prevails in
the mind of the public in regard to the
manner in which lasso is handled"
says an expert. "The idea that the
loop is always swung around the head
before making cast, especially when
the roper is on foot, is erroneous. No
man of experience ever makes cast
in this fashion from the ground in
practical work. There are several rea-
sons why he does not. One of them is
that the movement is liable to frighten
the stock, especially horses; another
that he may have to wait some minutes
before favorable opportunity occurs
for making cast. He knows that bet
ter results are obtained by holding the
rope as unobtrusively as possible, even
keeping it concealed from the object
of capture.
"On the contrary, however, when
mounted and in pursuit it is absolutely
necessary to swing the loop over and
around the head, for the cast must be
made with the greatest possible force
in order to overcome not only the for
ward movement of the pursued, but
also the action of the wind should that
chance to be against you.
GAS to the manner of casting, some
sropers' cast with quick, jerky move
ment of the hand, seeming to use the
arm very little and the body not at all.
Others employ body, arm and hand.
Both methods are effective when per-
fected by practice. ."-Ex.

Public Confidence.


T 7 ERBERT Spencer has said
n "Do not suppose things are
going right till it is proved
they are going wrong, but
rather suppose they are going wrong
till it is proved they are going right"
On the face of it, this suggestion ap-
pears to have just claim to the atten-
tion of all business men. But in pract
tice am inclined to think that it will
prove about as practical as Jacobs
wonderful ladder. To admit that the
theory is feasible, is to admit that the
human race is degenerating, that faith
and confidence are on the decline.
Let us suppose Mr.. Spencer's apo
thegm was generally adopted by the
business world; would it place it upon
firmer foundation than it rests today ?
Would it prove panacea for the many
defalcations, the failures and the cor
ruption which occur so frequently i?
Would the employees of any establish
ment feel they were being treated de-
Gently with such code of ethics con-
tinually confronting them-a code of
ethics which questions their honesty ?
These are questions that should be we'll
considered before seriously undertak-
ing to enforce nebulous method which
has for its underlying basis the preyen-
tion of dishonesty.
Let it once be tacitly understood

Ireland.

N VIEW of the praiseworthy efforts
of the Irish party, and the tardy
i justice of the British nation, the
Ireland of the future seems des-
tined to be happier than the Ireland of
the past. If we except the Jews, no
people have suffered the trials and mis-
fortunes of the Irish, and it speaks
we'll for them thatno matter how dark
the night may have been, they still
looked forward to q brighter day.
One of the characteristics of the Irish
people, and one that might be practiced
to good advantage by all, is their abil-
