The supreme court of the United States, -pt.iking through Mr. Justice Brown, of Michigan. has Just rendered an important decision upholding the validity of the eight-hour law of the new State of Ltah, notes the 'New York Sun. The decision Is one of great interest and Importance to working men through out the country. In 1896 the legislature of that ttfUe en acted a statute regulating the hours of employment in underground mines and in -molting works ami works for the reduc tion of ore. The chief provisions of the statute are these: “Section 1. The period of employment of workingmen in all underground mines or workings shall be eight hours per day, ex cept in cases of emergency where life or property is in imminent danger. “Sec. 2. Tlie period of employment of workingmen in smelters and all other in stitutions for the reduction or refining of , ores or metals shall be eight hours per day except in cases of emergency where life or property Is in Imminent danger. “Sec. 3. Any person, body corporate, agent, manager, or employer who shall violate any of the provisions of sections 1 and 2 of this act shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor.” Mr. Albert F. Holden was prosecuted for violating bo-ih sections of the act, and was convicted after a trial before p. justice of the peace, who fined him SSO for each offence. He refused to pay the fines, whereupon the justice committed him to jail. Mr. Holden then sued out writs of habeas corpus in the supreme court of Utah, on the ground that the statute under which he had been convicted was uncon stitutional and void. That tribunal re fused to release him, end he appealed to the supreme court of the United States. In the opinion of the Utah court the statute was pronounced a valid exercise of that form of governmental authority which has come to be known in constitutional law’ as the police power. Chief Justice Zane, in expressing the views of the su preme court of the state, said: “While the business of mining may not be affected with a public interest, the leg islature may enact laws adapted to the promotion of the health and safety of men working in underground mines. Whatever difference of opinion may exist as to the extent ami boundaries of the police power, and however difficult it may be to render n satisfactoi definition of it, there seems to be no doubt that it does extend to the protection of the lives, health, and prop erty of the citizens, and to the preserva tion of good order and the public good.” In the supreme court of the United States, Justice Brown, speaking for a majority of his associates, without passing upon the constitutionality of eight-hour' laws generally, said that there could be no doubt of their validity in such a case as this, where they were plainly designed to protect, the health of a class of workers in employments of an unwholesome char acter in mines and smelting establish ments. Thus viewed, there was nothing in the legislation which infringeduipon any light guaranteed by the Federal constitu tion or violated any prohibition contained in that instrument. Says the Waycross Herald: “Wm. J. Bryan is to make a few speeches in Geor gia. The Herald suggests that he be in vited to Waycross. We might as well get acquainted with him, for he is going to come mighty near being our next presi dent” An Accidental Surplus, The government managed by a combina tion of good luck and accident to squeeze out a surplus during the month of Feb 'Th*' receipts .for the month were $28,572,538, being less than those of Jan uary, which amounted to $28,795,227; but the expenses were smaller by almost $lO.- 000,000, hence the surplus. Last month the government expended $26,727,000, while in January the outgo amounted to $36,695,711, and January was more nearly an average month than February. The I ebruary surplus, therefore, was riot the result of the Dingley law, which brought in less revenue than during the month before, but resulted from a reduc ton of expenses. The government simply “*Pl' en <.d to be called upon to pay $10,000,- 000 less in February -than in Jaunary, .-ji unusual occurrence and one which is not JiKely to happen often. The total receipts from all sources since July 1 189<, have been $274,558,140. and he expenditures $251,615,570. Deduct from the tmal receipts the $51,901,823 obtained from thi sale of the Union Pacific Railroad and the actual receipts are $222,656,317. leav ing a deficit of $28,959,253. Commenting on these figures the Birmingham News says, the Dingley l aw hAS b Jn in Hon seven months, and under it one small surplus has accidentally occurred, but those who are going into eestacies over this event should examine the above facts and comparisons, and then gaze upon the total deficit and their joy will soon be curbed. The Ding-ley law has not and never will do all its framers promised, and were it not for -the big movement in trade and the use.of the pruning knife by congress and the administration on expense accounts the present deficit would be more than twice as large as it is. In case of war with SpahTthe first forces available would be the standing army, the military organizations and volunteers who are ready to take up arms at once. The regular army numbers about 30.000. the militia something like 100.000. and it is safe to say that there are 250,000 who would volunteer at the first call to arms. The Birmingham News is trying to prove that Mr. Bryem is not an orator. But then The News looks at Bryan with jaundiced eyes. Our Hebrew Population. Mr. David Sulzberger, of Philadelphia. I with the assistance ©f the .American Jew ish Historical Society, has recently rnjde an enumeration of the Hebrews of the ! ' United States and gives the following as totals by states: ; Alabama 6 .g00 ' Arizona . 2,000 ( Arkansas 4 oGb | California 35.000 J Colorado 1.500 ; Connecticut ' ' North and South Dakota 3,500 1 De1aware......................... 3 t oi;o | District of Columbia 2 'OO j Florida 2 ’soo j Georgia - >OOO • 1dah0.... .. .. ...... 2 000 • Illinois 85/100 Indiana 15,000 lowa 5,000 Kansas 3 oco Kentuck y 12.000 Louisiana 20 050 ' Maine ~ ~ i QOQ ’ Maryland 35,’0f.0 Massachusetts ' 20 000 Michigan <,’ooo Minnesota 6fl(X) Mississippi 500 M issourt .. . . ‘ ’ 25,’0e0 Montana 2.500 Nebraska 2 000 Nevada 25C0 New Hampshire....- i’ooo New Jersey '' 25 * 000 New Mexico 2,000 New York , 35o’()OO North Carolina 12,000 Ohio 50,000 Oregon 6,000 Pensylvania 85,000 Rhode Island 3,500 South Carolina 8,000 Tennessee 15,000 Teexas 12,000 Utah 5,000 Vermont 1,000. Virginia 18,000 Washington 2,800 West Virginia 6,000 Wisconsin 10,000 Wyoming..., 1,000 Total 937,800 The above figures are only estimates, but but they may be accepted as aproximately cored. Th’e growth of this country’s He brew' population has been very rapid. In 1818 there were but 3,000 in America, the bulk of them being in New York, New Or leans and one or two other cities. Since then, however, there has been a steady in crease until now the United States con tains one-seventh of the Jewsih population of the world and stands fourth In the number of Hebrews it contains, being ex ceeded only by Russia, Austria and Ger many. An old colored man in Kentucky, who went through the Mexican war, depre cates light talk about the Spanish crisis. He says: “I’ve fit the Spaniards and When you git through you know you ain’t bin to nor pra’r raeetin,.” The Supreme Court. The talk about the supreme court toeing owned by the*corporations may be revived to an. interesting degree since Spencer At kinson's announcement for governor. It is a well known fact that Judge Atkinson while on the supreme bench dissented from a number of opinions that were fa vorable to the corporations.—‘Columbus , Ledger. In this conection the Times-Recorder de sires the privilege of remindng the people that Judge Atkinson did not dissent from the opinion of the other judges of the su preme court when they allowed their prej udices in favor of corporations to ipermit them to wrongfully ‘and unjustly construe the law in the case of the removal of the headquarters of the Georgia and Alabama railroad from Americus to Savannah. But The Times-'Recorder is not prepared to put upon Judge Atkinson’s shoulders the many sins of ‘that august body, the supreme court of Georgia, for the .people have about "as much showing before that body of grand corporation moguls as they would in a court of justice presided over toy General Weyler.—Americus Times-IReeorder. “Southern States” says that the price of farm lands in the South will soon advance very materially, because of indicated im migration from the Southwest. Women Read Advertiserrents. It is claimed, says the Philadelphia Press, that the women who are the only readers of advertisements. In a measure this is true, and necessarily so, for women are the larger purchasers for the house hold and spend most of the money that is earned by business, professional and work ing men. Even in the larger transactions it wall probably surprise dealers to learn how in- . fluential a voice women have. The pur chase of a home is almost invariably de ternjined by the women of the household, and in nine cases out of ten their infor mation as to the situation and desirability of a purchase is gained from the news papers. And every furniture dealer, dry goods dealer, groceryman and keeper of any sort of a store knows that he must appeal to the women if he wishes 'to sell his goods. - One of the largest elements in the success of one’ of the greatest merchants in the world is the fact that he knows how to ap peal attractively through the advertise ment to the woman. Here is a nice little problem for some arithmetic class: If 200,000 Spanish sol diers have been unable, in three years’ time, to conquer 1,500,000 Cubans, bow many,of them would it take to whip 72,- 000.000 Americans?

Brice. T. B. West, Attorney, h February 11, 1898. The navy department has given out a statement of the strength of the naval I militia, and it snows a total force of 4,445 I officers and enlisted men. The number of officers and men by states is as follows: California, 36; Connecticut, 165; Florida,« | 186; Georgia, 225; Illinois, 523: Louisiana, I 262; Maryland, 240; Massachusetts, 441; Michigan. 193; New Jersey, 364; New ' York, 472, North Carolina, 230; Ohio, 216; i Pennsylvania. 216; Rhode Island, 130; : South Carolina, 152; Virginia. 44. In his recent report Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt said that the state mili tia, in the event of a sudden emergency, I could be utilized at once tor manning the smaller cruisers. It could be depended upon mainly, he said, as a second line of defense and also be used in placing mines and the establishement of signal stations for coast defense. THE WANE OF FAME. I saw him years and years ago In all his spendor and his grace; I saw him ere the pangs of woe Had furrowed tell-tales on his face. I saw him and loved this uncrowned king Os poetry and songs so rare; And once, by chance, I heard his sing And rythmic music filed the air. I saw him ere the blight of sin With inky stain had blackened his soul; I saw him ere Prince Satin, in His ghoulish glee, demanded toll. (For all a heavy toll must pay For sin, by whatsoever induced— And only by repenting, may Their fee for erring be reduced.) I knew' him ere the cup of wine Had kissed his lips or fired his brain; Hot kiss from Hell, so Judas-like That killing—it concealed the pain. (Seductive draught! Perditions drink- What Devil’s angel brought thee here To lure men’s souls onto the brink Os Hell, Remorse and deep Despair?) I knew him when the songs he sang Had decked his brow with wreath of fame; I knew him when a nation rang With praises of his honored name. I knew him then—l know' him now, A blear-eyed, drunken, puling bum. No wreath of myrtle crowns his brow, But in its stead the “Curse of Rum.” Oh! God! what ravages doth time Mark on ‘the sinful, human face; The beauty that was once sublime With cunning stealth—it doth erase And leaves instead in large, bold hand A grewsome sign—whereon is writ: “Behold in me a drunkard—and Os God’s first image—“counterfeit.” Thrice blessed those—who tempted not See no allurement in the bowl, For more by luck than merit, they Protect a name and save a soul. ‘So thrice in pity should they gaz.e On those w'ho lack the power of will— And pray to God to Stop the craze For drink, that doth he drunkard fill. Jas. R. Peyton. FOLLOWING THE HOUNDS. . It is not alone in exceptional recreations like fox-hunting, that a woman needs steady nerves, strong muscles and a healthy, vig orous constitution. She needs them in her every day duties and pleasures. Recently a Buffalo lady called upon Dr. R. V. Pierce of that city and stated that she was so nerv ous that after months of trial she could not learn to ride a bicycle. She was put under a scientific course of treatment, consisting of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery before meals and his ‘‘ Favorite Prescription ” after meals. The “Favorite Prescription” promptly cured the weakness and disease of the organs dis tinctly feminine, from which she suffered and restored strength and steadiness to the nerves. The “ Golden Medical Discovery ” cleansed the blood, making it pure, rich and invigorating, and built up solid, mus cular flesh. The lady now rides her bicycle with grace and ease and without trepida tion. Both medicines are for sale by medi cine dealers. Dr. Pierce answers letters from ailing women without charge. “I suffered with a bearing down pain in my pelvis and a hurting in my back and loins,” writes Mrs. Tillie Cunningham, of Weir, Choctaw Co., Miss. “Whenever I would take a walk or ride very far it would always make me sick. After using Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and ‘ Golden Medical Discovery ’ for three months I can ride or walk and feel well after, wards. My appetite is good, all of my bad feel, ings have disappeared and I am. strong and well.'* You can secure Dr. Pierce’s Common Sense Medical Adviser free by sending stamps to cover mailing.
