impressive object Lesson.

The charleston Daily Mail points
out the following impressive object
lesson concerning the protection Of
American labor from the pauper la
Dor of a free-trade nation:
The English National Railroad
workers strike has attracted the
attention of the whole world. 1t
may have an important effect on
American politics. For some rea-
son, about every ten or twelve years
the American people begin to be-
lieve that the Republican policy OF
protection is based on false as
sumption that wages here are not
much higher than in other countries.
If the cause of the strike and the
demand of the strikers shall become
known generally in the United
States, our people will again know
and realize the truth. The Assoct-
ated press dispatches dated London
August 20, contain the following;
The men declare that
they Will not return until it is agreed
that the minimum wage shall be
$3.50 per week, with eight hours
work.
This is not what they are getting-it
is what they are asking and striking
for. If railroad men are striking
for $3.50 per week. what must be
the wages of servants. farm labor
ers. porters and like? But wages
In england are much higher than on
the continent of Europe. The dis
matches from Berlin for the same
date-the goth of the present month

uIatlon of 81 100000 there were 90.
900 900 working In tho principal
trades. OF these. 100000 were
women
The further explanation Is made
that this does not include domestic
servants. For all Germany, nearly
one-third of tho workers other than
in household work, are women
This means in the mines shops

wise? with men and women as
cheap as they are abroad, there
should be no comparison. With the
cheap man to grow things, the cheap
railroad man to haul them to mar
ket. the cheap and socially despised
tradesman and his cheap employees
to distribute them, the things to eat
ought to be very cheap indeed.
After all, however. they do not
live so very much cheaper. since they
must get SO many things from other
countries. For instance = meat
from America. How much beef does

and the people are consequently
staying at home. The shortage of
Russian laborcrs has amounted to
the proportions of a calamity for
the farmers in the eastern German
PROVINCES. Fewer Galicians and
laborers, too, are coming
into Germany this year, owing to
more prosperous times in those
countries; the same thing is true In
regard to Italy.
German anglers have decided to
try the experiment of stocking their
streams with American trout, and
for this purpose a consignment OF
100 900 rainbow trout eggs from
Greed, Colo, recently arrived in

trout in the German rivers had
been degenerating for several years

Education In Agriculture.
The Importance and value of ed
ucation in agriculture and the pos
sibIIities. OF helpful aid that may be
derived from the annual county fair
are discussed in an interesting edt-
toriaI In the Morgantown POST
Chronicle, as follows:
Our mineral deposits in West
virginia are rich and valuable, our
coal and oil and gas are yielding Un-
counted wealth to the capitalists
who are exploiting them, but the
great and lasting source of wealth
for the state is the soil Of our as-
rIcuIturaI lands. The conservation
of that portion Of our heritage may
we'll enlist the earnest attention of
scientists and men Of business The
modern farmer ought to be both
scientist and business man, to some
extent. At least he ought to have a
scientific training in certain lines
and no man stands in more urgent
need of fairly good business edu-
cation than the man who has to-
deal with the complex affairs con-
nected with successful farm man
agement.
fortunately it has come to be UNI
derstood in our day that education
need not be limited to the formal
discipline of the few years of child
hood and youth devoted to school
work. Adults are Just as capable OF
acquiring knowledge as children
and it is now recognized in peda-
gogic circles that provisions must
be made for a continual process OF
education for all men and women
who are disposed to take advantage
of ia process which shall be
available for all and extending
throughout active life. One of the
truly great pedagogic problems OF
the day is the adaptation of this
new educationl concept to the en-
largement and enrichment OF rural
life. The university extension move
ment seems to be capable of doing
much toward the solution OF the
problem. 1t is likely that the i'm
movement of the common schools
in the rural districts may accom-
plish even more in this direction
than the university. All effort along
this line is worthy of receiving the
sympathy and support of every man
who recognizes the transcendent inn
portance of the adequate develop
ment of our agricultural resources
The annual agricultural fair
ought to be one of the agencies for
the enlargement of rural life, and it
may be brought up to the point OF
exercising that function If those
who should be the leaders in every
such movement will take the neces-
sary interest in the development OF
the fair. If the emphasis has hith-
erto been placed at the wrong
point in some of these expeditions.
tho remedy need not lie in abandon
ing the fair to the interests that
have sought to exploit it. These
meetings should be real industrial +,
exhibitions OF the resources OF the
locality in which they are held. and
they should have in proportion to
their size all the educative value OF
the great International expositions.
They should fuFhll for the county
the same function that is performed
for the nations by a worlds fair.
They may be made to do that very
thing by the cooperation of all
those who recognize the educational
value OF the annual county fair.
