Almost the Last Link.

With the passing of Thomas
Bailey Aldrich, poet of tender senti-
ment and delicate fancy. there is re-
moved almost the last link between
the present and that coterie of
poets that made the Eastern part of
the United States so brilliantly IA
nous two decades ago. We say al
most the last link, for there still re-
mains in vigorous old age one other
man who was part of that band of
immortals, Edmund Clarence Sted-
man, of New York.
But Aldrich was the last of the
distinctively BOstonian group, the
friend and the contemporary, al
though younger, Of Lowell, Long
fellow, Whittier, Holmes, and Emer-
son. His death leaves -Jew England
without a single poet of any but the
very minor rank. It removes, too,
master of delicate and exquisite
prose.
How long Alirich's renown Will
endure is, of course, problematicaI,
as every judgment of conternpO-
rary must be. But it seems unlikely
that tie ryorld viii forget the
pathos and ne charm of his smaller
poems the delightful workmanship
of his novelties. the bubbling
humor, the wonderful insight into
youth, and the marvellous realism of
his STORY of a Bad Boy" That
book should ever be a classic for
the youngsters reading, for, taken
all in all, no story of the sort ever
penned by any man in the world was
more delightful.

Cannot This Be Stopped ?

1t seems that there is no Particu-
lar good in indicting the New York
Central and Hudson River railroad
for unnecessary cruelty to animals
while in transit on its lines. A true
bill was returned on this offense
last December, and twice since then
other indictments have been made
by the grand jury, the last being an
nouneed only few days ago.
The continual finding of these in
dictments shows that the railroad
has very little regard for the same.
The only action that it has taken in
the matter is that of employing its
attorney to plead not guilty in each
case and let the future take care of
itself. Even if found guilty and
fined in each instance there would
be very little hardship to the cor
poration, for the fine is not Excess
sively large, and we are not in
formed that past performances in
this particular line add any greater
weight TO the penalty.
But public sentiment should be
aroused, and aroused strongly,
against cruelty to animals on the
part of a great railroad. 1t is un-
speakable that, in this age, when
mans mercy is more in evidence in
the treatment not only of other
men but of the dumb beasts as
well, any corporation be permitted
70 haul cattle herded together in a
confinement that is little less than
torture, and kept without food and
water for hours, or to bring, as the
railroad has done all winter, even
the lowly and disagreeable pig in
cars practically open to the fierce
blasts of cold, which must cause
great suffering to this warmth
loving animal.
If there is no legal way to make a
railroad corporation cease this sort
of thing, there should be such out
bursts of public spirit and public
indignation as would compel it TO
pay sorle little attention to the
common humanities

Not the Modern Farmer.

According to Harper's, the life of
the American farmer IS not a happy
one. In its opinion the man with
the twenty-horsepower reaper and
binder is a slave, and his whole
career one of unrequited toll and
nervous excitement. It expresses
its blief thus:
Anyone who has lived OH a farm
knows Of the strain under which the
American farmer lives during the five
months OF spring and summer His
wOrkday is from or IN the mOrniH &
until or at night, including chores
fifteen to seventeen hours of the hard
est kind of physical labor. and every
minute of 1t at high tension, especially
during harvest
Then comes a period of relaxation in
the fall the one time in the year when
he has just enough muscular exercise
to keep him in health; later, the winter
season, approaching stagnattOn, in
which be takes on flesh, gets logy, and
Their a furious debauch of hard labor
through the spring and summer again.
No wonder that by fOrty-fivc he has
had a unstrOke and cant stand heat"
or has "a weak back. or his heart
rheumatic;" and when you add to this
furious muscular strain the fact that
the farmer sees his income put in peril
every season, and his very home every
bad year, so that each unfaVOrab bic
change in the weather sets his nerves
on edge il can be readily imagined that
the real quiet, peaceful country life"
is something sadly different from the
ideal
With all due respect for our able
and rather pOnderOus contemporary,
that gloomy picture does not prop
erly portray the young farmer of
today. He gets US early, to be sure
-unconscionabiy early, according to
our city standards, in sUmmer-but
that's no hardship. for he goes to
bed early and gets all the sleep he
needs. He works hard in spring
and summer, but he no longer makes
