Such religious sects as the Mormons,
Dunkers, Quakers and Shakers, which
are frugal and industrious, and never go
to law nor dabble in policts, are uni
formly prosperous, and in worldly mat

Mormons differ from the other sects in

ably adapted to agriculture, the soil con- be guilty of such stupidity.
“Tho Democratic party offers the ag
ricultural classes all the relief that is
practicable, all that is needed to restore
their lost prosperity. It refuses to lend
itself to visionary schemes for giving
everything to everybody, but it will
give to all justice and equal opportuni
ties to better their condition. The farm
ers of this country, as a class, want
nothing but what is right. The idea of
a groat farmers’ party that will run ev
erything for the exclusive benefit of
farmers is an absurdity, since the fann
ers form but about three-eighths of tlio
population. It is a mirage conjured up
to lure tlio farmers to destruution.

other classes that liaye interests in com

Tuk first Republican newspaper to ex
press tho opinion that President Harri
son will compel Wanamaker to retire
from his cabinet, is tho Albany (N. Y.)
Journal, and the chances are others will
also take up the cry. It is true that
Wanamaker has been badly smirched by
the Keystone bank scandal and that his
retention as a cabinet officer is a disgrace
to the administration, but he will never
theless remain where he is with the con
sent of the president. Wanamaker paid
a largo sum of money for the office of
postmaster-general, and ho is not going
to give it up until he has served the full
term of four years.
Nkw York is very much disturbed by
the discovery by the health officers of
that city of a Chinese laundryman who
is a leper and has for months been wash
ing and handling clothes, despite tho
fact that his whole body is covered witli
tho loathsome disease. We do not
blame tho Now Yorkers for manifesting
alarm at the discovery, because to go
about haunted by the idea that one’s
shirt is loaded with a case of leprosy is
not a pleasant sensation. An inspection

now in order.

EDUCATION IN THE SOUTH.
The south lias reason to be proud of the
splendid showing it makes in advance
ment in education, aud this too accord
ing to tho statistics gathered by an in
imical p- -tisan census bureau.
It is shown by actual figures that
within the last decade the south has
been the most progressive section of the
Union in educational affairs. The in
crease in school enrollment as compared
w ith the increase in population has been
much greater in the south than in the
th or cast. The statistics show’ that
uth is not only increasing and ad
vaneir" at o rapid in material, industrial
financial and commercial development,
but that she is also in the front rank in
the matter of educational progress.
