THE NEED OF THE UNFORTUNATE.

Advocates Of laws to make proofs of
mental and physical and moral fitness
necessary requisites to the obtaining
of marriage licenses. were furnished an
illustration few days ago at Wash
ington, Iowa, when a large family Of
children were taken from their parents
to be sent to the industrial schools.
Not one Of the seven children had ever
been sent to school, not one could read
or write. They used tobacco with the
facility and enjoyment of old stagers.
Neither father nor mother could read
or write and the mother confessed to
having used tobacco since her third
year. The children appeared naturally
bright enough to make good citizens
under favorable circumstances. They
were very properly taken from the
parents and with a proper purpose.
But are the reform schools the best
places wherein to make good men and
women out Of these children whose only
crime is misfortune? There is no
charge of vice or incorrigibil1ty against
them. They are simply Ill born, illit-
crate and ignorant. Is penal of SENT

Of true citizenship out Of

this raw material, that seems to need
little besides opportunity?
Not long ago in a western city an
honest workingman went insane while
looking for work and left an invalid
wife and three children starving. The
children cried for food and the des-
perat mother put them away to bed,
clean and neat in their patched and
mended nightgowns, turned on the I'M
lighted gas and lay down beside them.
They were found dead together.
There is always a place for the law
less and the incorrigible. We see to
that. The children of the crazed work.
ingman were not candidates for the
state industrial schools, but for tn.
poor house. They had done no wrong.
The children Of the ignorant and to-
bacco- chewing mother at Washington
approach viciousness as ignorance al
ways approaches vice. They came near
enough to lawlessness to belong more

house.
If there are crying needs in the
world, one Of them is for endowed In
dustrial schools where misfortune need
not herd with crime and incorrigibiity.
No better investment could be made
than In schools where the children of
the unfortunate poor and those Of the
ignorant or vicious might be kept and
taught trades and manual dextrcus-
ness, and made self supporting. It Is
cheaper than building jails, extending
penitentiaries and feeding criminals.
The best place to destroy crime is in
the incubator. We need reform schools
for the vicious but even more we nsed
manual training schools for the un-
fortunate.

ONE CAUSE OF IMMIGRATION.

Conditions of foreign countries thai
tended to increase the immigration tc
| this country this year are being grad
ually revealed to us by our consuls
The conditions existing in Bohemia
are quite adverse to the wage earners
During the summer. in addition to the
adverse crop conditions prevailing in
the country on account of the great
rendered worse by the low stages OF
water III the Elbe river, one of the prin-
cipal means of transportation These
things have caused prices or commodi-
ties to advance 100 per cent and more,
while wages have not increased in any
noticeable degree. The more common
articles of food have not generally in
creased in price to the extent mention
ed, but some have, and the increase in
the others have been sharp, and the
results consequently hard on the poor.
Some instances of the advances are
furnished in the comparative values of
necesssries this year and last. For
| instance, common quality Of rye flour.
which last year sold for $4S7 for a
quantity amounting to 220.46 pounds,
this year sold for $3.50. The like guam
tity Of common wheat flour, which last
year sold for $3.50, this year sells for
$731. The same quantity Of beet sugar
which last. year sold for $12.99. this
year sells for $15.S3. Potatoes which
last year sold for $106. this year sell
for $2.15. Hay, which last year sold
for $1.36, this year sells for $3.50. First
quality Of beef which last year sold
for 20 to 81 cents, this year sells for
81 to 33 cents. Second quality OF beef
which last year sold for 26 to % cents,
this year sells for % to 20 cents.
While these extraordinary advances
in provisions are rather abnormal and
the results Of exceptional conditions,
the fact is not to be disputed that the
cost Of living has increased very large
~ in the past few years and that the
tendency is still gradually upwards.

SECRETARY HlTcHcOcWs REPORT.

In his report as secretary of the IN
terror Mr.. Hitchcock conveys the graf
flying information that the ring OF
land thieves on the west coast has been
broken up and their predatory raids
on the public stopped This portion
interesting in view OF the charges made
| by democrats that frauds in western
lands were being winked at by the adj
ministration and that no sincere effort
to break up and punish the gang of
conspirators was in progress. The facts
are that a rigid investigation was in
stitute'l and offenders brought to trial
and that the investigation and prosecu-
tons are still being diligently carried
on.
1t appears from Secretary Hitch
cocks report that the allegations of
fraud actually accomplished were
greatly overdrawn.
While hundreds Of thousands of
acres Of the public lands were in
volved in the scheme, only a small
portion thereof-less than forty thou
sand acres-had been patented at the
time OF the discovery Of the fraud by
the secretary OF the interior. BY the
secretary's direction, the further issu-
ing Of patents upon the selections and
entries involved was Immediately
stopped, and all such selections and
entries were suspended, which suspen-
sion still remains in force The govern
ment is, therefore. in no danger Of
further loss Of It's public lands, thru
the said scheme. The fraudulent bus
mess Of the conspirators, Mr.. Hitch
cock asserts, has been completely brok-
en- up, and their nefarious practices
are now at an end.
So far as the tnsinuations against
Secretary Hitchcock are concerned,
they are entirely discredited. They
came primarily from wealthy gang
Of land robbers, who found him in their |
way, and used their money. political,
influence and social prominence to be- |
smirch him. The report is complete
In information and puts at rest all |
doubts as to the fidelity Of the secre-
tary and the safety of public lands.
