THE RUSSIAN LABORERS,

The Russian workingmen who are
discussing IN public meetings, the
needs Of the country may not be we !
yersed IN parliamentary rules, but they
know what the country needs They
are looking far beyond their own per-
sonal interests. They are not asking
for higher wages. or shorter hours Of
labor, but for liberty OF speech and
freedom of religion. IT seems to us
that the calm expression OF such de-
mands proves that the revolution now
on In Russia is prompted by force to
which even autooracy must yield, or be
broken into fragments.
Freedom of religion Is the first con-
slderation. Where the individual IL
perfectly free, not only TO think and to
believe but to speak and to practise his
belief, clyll liberty will follow Re-
ligious liberty is the mother Of all le-
climate freedom Russia may not be
prepared for civil liberty, such as Is
known in this country; but It is even
now in a position to enjoy freedom OF
religion, and the breaking down Of pre-
JUDGES that separate the people into
religious castles would be the best pre-
paration for the new era that must
dawn even Ia Russia. With freedom OF
religion, the Gospel Of the Redeemer
would no doubt be preached extensive
ly throughout the empire, and It would
have the blessings enjoyed by all
countries IN which the messengers Of
the Son Of God are Hospitality received.
The workngmen have indicated to
the Gear the way out OF his dilemma.
1t is said that the probability is that
they will not be heard. II the Gar
refuses TO listen to what the people
have to say his dynasty is In all prob
ability doomed, Time alone can tell
whether the Car win wake up to a re-
allzaton Of the possibilities before him.

OUR MONUMENTS.

Complaint has been made that our
age does not leave any lasting monu-
ments OF it's civilization, like the age
Of the pyramids, for instance, But
there are some works OF engineering
skill that viii remain through all
changes, as long as the surface OF the
earth is intact. Among those works
are the tunnels piercing the majestic
Alps, and the subways built In the
interest OF traffic. The canals, too, such
as the suez, and the Panama canal, Will
last throughout generations To the
efforts OF man TO meet the needs Of
the age for closer intercommunication
future sages viii be largely indebted
even IL the hand OF destruction should
sweep the surface OF the globe as II
has done before.
Some of the most remarkable modern
Of communication. The Lucin cutoff
across the Great Salt Lake on the
Southern Pacific, with its miles and
miles OF trestlcwork, is one Of the mar
wells of the world But plans are AL
ready being discussed for another rail-
road construction, which will far sur
pass this. The question Ia TO run
railroad across the chain OF islands
known as the Florida Keys, to Key
West, with view to reaching Havana
on car ferries,
"From the present terminus" says
the Chicago Record-Herald,' the road
must be built for many miles through
the Everglades, and thence for twenty
miles on trestling across a salt water
marsh 10 the nearest island, Key Lar
go. From this point 20 Key West the
road will make use Of twenty separate
Islands, and in addition will require
forty miles Of elevated structure over
the open water A number Of draw
bridges will be built TO permit navlga-
ton Of the channels between the
islands, which are IN places eighteen
feet deep. The longest piece Of mer-
| Inc work win be eight miles, between
Bahia Honda and knights Key, and
here there are no protecting reefs to
keep of the violence OF Atlantic
storms. Fortunately the coralline rock
offers a splendid foundation for the
elevated structures Steel posts, cased
IN creosotcd wood, VIII probably be
used for the most part, but the bridges
viii have masonry foundations"
Such works antiquity never dreamt
Of. They deserve preservation
throughout all time, because they are
more than monuments Of our clyiliza-
ton, they are It's servants and hand e.
maideus more useful than were the
pyramids and the sphinx

NOT A FAIR COMPARISON.

The lighting Of the new Emery
Holmes building with an electric plant
OF It's own, is mark Of commendablo
enterprise We have no doubt that IL
It is properly managed the users VIII
be well satisfied both with It's quality
and IT'S cost It stands to reason that
sneclal plant specially conducted
and having no expense other than that
incurred within the establishment
where the light Is generated, can fur
nlsh light at a less rate than an insti-
tuition can when extending IT'S lines to
long distances and having to construct
expensive works. besides the poles and
wires and largo forces Of men em-
ployed IN the undertaking.
Yet we notice In a morning paper
grand flourish Of trumpets and COM
parlson OF charges between the house
plant we have mentioned and the Utah
Light and Railway works, with the
intlmaton that people are IN the
"clutch" OF the latter because of the
difference in the alleged prices Of the
two concerns We notice too that In
drawing this comparison the charges
for lighting during the month of Janu-
airy are made with that IN February In
the first month the light was supplied
by tho company, IN the next month by
tho private plant in tho house
There are two considerations That
nre entirely left out Of the pretended
comparison. one is that January has
more nights In It than February has
and the other that the hours when light
is needed are LEGS IN February than In
January That viii account to some
extent for the difference In the cost
and when the facts are considered that
we have already mentioned concerning
conveyance OF light and power 10 re-
mote places, u VIII be easy for a fair

the cost of light furnished by the
company was necessarily greater than
