A BARREN WASTE
Impossible to Cultivate, But It's Wa
ters Teen with Innumerable Fish
Country Unpopulated.

The coast of Labrador is the
edge of a vast solitude of rocky
hills, split and blasted by the
frosts and beaten by the waves of
the Atlantic for unknown ages,
says the Boston Transcript. A
grand headland, yellow, brown
and black in it's nakedness, is ever
in sight, one to the north of you
and one to the south. Here and
there upon them are strips and
patches of pale green MOSES,
lean grasses and dwarfshrubbery.
There Ire no forests except in
Hamilton inlet. Occasionally
miles of precipices front the sea,
in which fancy may roughly shape
all the structures of human art.
More frequent than headlands
and perpendicular sea fronts are
the sea slopes, often bald and
tame, and then the perfection of
all that is picturesque and rough.
In the interior the blue hills and
stony wales that wind up from
among them from the sea have a
summerlike and pleasant air.
One finds himself peopling
these regions and dotting their
hills, valleys and wild shores with
human inhabitants, but a second
thought, and a mournful one it is,
tells that no men toll in the fields
away there, no women keep the
home off there, no children play by
the brooks or shout around the
country scheolhouse, no bees
come home to the hive, no smoke
curls from the farmhouse chin,
ney, no orchard blooms, no bleat.
ing sheep flock the mountains side
with whiteness and 10 heifer
lows in the twilight.
There is nobody there, there
never were but a miserable and
scattered few, and there never
will be. 1t is a great and terrible
wilderness thousands of miles in
extent and lonesome to the wild
animals and birds. Left to the
still visitation of the light from
the sun, moon and stars and the
auroral fires, it is only fit to looI
upon and then be given over to its
primeval solitariness.
But for the living things of its
waters, the cod, salmon and seal
which bring thousands of fisher
men to it's waters and traders tt
it's bleak shores, Labrador would
be as desolate as Greenland. The
time is now coming when, witt
good steamship accommodations
the invalid and tourist from the
states will be found spending the
brief but lovely summer here, not
withstanding it's ruggedness an6
d%esolation. Q

An English judge recently had an

dull to make a defense or answer in

Judge. Suddenly the judge said:

AS 10 CHEAP FAREs.

"The Sun is not particularly opposed
to a two-cent passenger rate on the
railroads" says the Parsons sun, 'sbut
it fails to see where such a rate is go
ing to be any great saving to the great
mass of people. Those who have trav-
eled any considerable amount Will tell
you that the railroad fare is the small
est part of the expense. People go on
excursions when cheap rates are IN
force, come home tired and cross and
declare that they will never again pat
ronize an excursion. The writer knows
several people in Kansas who would be
better off today by several hundred
and possibly several thousand dollars
if they had never been given a pass
by the railroads. Let the railroads stop
the pass-issuing, for in the majority
of Instances where they are issued, they
are a damage TO the parties receiving
them and it would be a good thing for
the people if no railroad passes were
allowed to be issued. The cheap rail-
road fare IS only a modified form OF
the pass evfI. There are other reforms
that are needed much more than the
reduction of passenger rates
Are we to understand from the Suns
argument, then. that cheap railroad
fares ought to be abolished and all
railroad fares raised? hat would
keep people from travelling so much
and they would not have a chance to
squander their money away from
home.
It is quite possible that if a two
cent rate-or thereabouts-wer estab-
lished, and excursion rates were
abolished. it would be a good thing ali
around. This would be the same as
the ordinary one and one-third fare ex-
