WE MUST REFORM OUR PLAN
In tha mnttrr,of aoll. productiveness
resource* generally, and climate, Oeor- #
fla t» «ui»erior to Massachusetts. Yet
Georgia's aM of 59.475 aqua re in lien
supports a population of only 3.216,331.
while Massachusetts' area of 8.115
oquore miles supports a population of
2,905.246. Why la there a treater pop-
pUtlon In the one than In the other,
although Georgia la nbput aeven tlmca
flB large aa Massachusetts and far
richer In natural reaourcta?
We find a almllar contrast between
Kentucky and Pennsylvania. Ken
tucky. with an area of 40,400 aquare
inllea, haa a population of 2,147,176*.
Pennsylvania, with an area of 45.215
aquare mllea, auetalnn a popuUtlnn of
1,102.115. Yet Kentucky haa a better
climate, and. It la claimed, a richer
aoll And a more extensive store of
mineral an4 format wealth.
The anawer to tha question In both
caoae. and In bthers that might be
preaented. la (he presence of tho ne
groes. flrst a* slaves and then as free
men, In the leas developed arena of the
Couth. This presence has always
checked and atlil checks the white Im
migration ao much neaded. The Rail*
way World, which apeaka for Its own
particular Interest and without either
social or political bias, asserts that
the only pronpect of the Eouth ever
r. Thing the standard of the West In
production and consuming power lies
In Introducing new elements of imp
utation, by which the bulk of tho negro
population ahull be displaced.
Thoughtful Houthern observers long
n*> reached this conclusion, and have
repeatedly declared It. yet Houthern
state government! continue to check
the outflow of the negroes by levying
a heavy tax on emigration agents, and
tor the most part have done little to
encourage the Immigration to thla
section of white people from other
atatea and from Kuron*.
Replying to the Hallway World, the
Record says that In
largo sc. tlona of the gouth Immigrants
used not t ome Into contact with negro
labor, there being •'available great
tracts of land on which (he negro need
never set foot If the policy Is pursued
which haa been adopted by more than
one community of Northern settlers
It la true that the D
wrong hit thla subject
but It Is equally true thi
cans had previously gone wrong and
only aaw their mistake nnd changed
their plan .after the country had suf
fered from the effects of-silver legisla
tion during the Harriaon administra
tion. And when the Populistic In
fluences carried the Democrats astray,
the Republicans seised the opportunity
of charging up to their opponents the
results of their own blunders.
The Boston Herald (Ind.) recalls
facts In thla connection which Republi
can organa have long alnco seen fit to
Ignore, as follows:
For nearto four years President Cleve
land. during his first adrnlnlstraton, bed
been upholding the Integrity of the gold

for the entirely disinterested support
which the Itsinthlicaff ticket received from
the many thousands or Democrat* who
would not support Mr, llryan - and free

ITEMS OF INTEREST.
Parisians are considering wheth
er they ought to postpone the dinner
hour atlji from 9 to 10 o'clock or give
up dinner altogether In favor of a sub
stantial 5 o'clock tea and an after-the
atre .supper.
Four years ago the working day In
all French factories was one of twelve
hours: a year later It wna eleven hours,
and then It came down to ten and a
half; but since April 1 It haa been one
of ten hours. The same wages are paid
for ten hours as were paid when twelve
hours were worked.
The theatrical managers of New
Ydrk having determined to abandon
advertising posters in windows, now
propose to do a way with bill-boards to
raise a fund for the erection of kiosks,
similar to those seen, In the streets of
Paris, on which theatrical advertise
ments can be displayed.
The wheat farmers of eastern Wash
ington expect to harvest a crop of 30,-
000.000 bushels this season. They
planted a larger area than ever before,
nd have a favorable season. Much of
lie harvesting la performed by modern
machines, which head the grain nnd
thresh It at the name time. Five men
nd thirty horses harvest twenty acres
day. 1
Fine voices. It la said, are seldom
found In n country where flsh or meat
diet prevails. Those Italians who oat
the most fish (those of Naples and Ge
noa) have few fine singers among
them. The sweet voices arc found In
the Irish women of the country, and
not »| the towns. Norway Is not
country of singers, because they ent
too much flsh; hut Sweden Is n country
of grain and song. The carnivorous
birds croak; grain-eating birds sing.

The Idea has got abroad that mili

to get through sufficient relnforc
meutti to put the opposing forces more
nearly on an equal footing. Mean
while. It has been supposed the armies
on both sides would suffer severely
from drenching rains and all their at
tendant Ills.
But the facts scarcely warrant these
conclusions. All Haveners agree, on
tha contrary, that the rainfall In Man-
chut la Is small. A full half of It, to bo
sure, comes In July nnd August, a cir
cumstance which has given rise to the
talk of u "wet season." but the meteor
ological records of the country show
thnt the total precipitation of rain In
Manchuria during u year rarely ex
cecda twelve Inches, and that a rain

To the Russlsna the hoot may ap
pear excessive In their midsummer

count for the apparent deliberation of
their movements In the engagements

they have permitted the Japanese sol

gree of heat nor the amount of rain

combatants Into temporary retirement,

Ah anticipated. It half been derided
that the line ahull start from 8t. Oer-
vals. for the experts are of opinion
that the route from that point will pre
sent the least difficulty nnd danger,
while the views during the ascent will
be far finer than could be the case If
the line mounted from Chamonix di

Visitors must not be disappointed,
however. If they find that they cannot

RIDING AN AVALANCHE.
Miraculous Sseapo of Seven Tourists
Who Had Worn Ski.
He van Alpine tonilsts. representing
five different nationalities, namely, two
Ktlglluhmen, a German count and his
valet, a young Russian lady, a Dutch
rnnn nnd*a Swiss guide, have Just had
an extraordinary escape from destruc
tion by nn avalanche.
The party started from Aroea to as
cend the Aroaer Weiashorn on ski.
When about 700 feet- from the summit,
which In 8.710 feet ubov the sea level,
the steepness of the ascent and the
hardness of the snow necessitated the
removal of the ski. and the party pro
ceeded on foot When nearing the top
of an Immense avalanche suddenly
rushed down the mountain side.
y of the party st once sat down
to receive the Impact on their backs,
and some succeeded In riding the
of snow with tolerable success
for some distance. Then came a series
of somersaults. Five of the party were
Involved In the avalanche and four
were swept down to the bottom of the
slope, m distance of about 700 feet, or
riving in all manner of attitudes.
The German counf collided with t
rock and was cut about the face: the
Dutchmen finished up In a standing
noature hurled In anow to his chin. The
Russian lady woe the first to extricate
heraclCi and behaved throughout with
remarkable pluck nnd endurance.
Wonderful to relate, no bones were
broken and all escaped with a few
bruises and scratches, und reached Ar-
oau In safety. Had not the ski been
taken off before the accident, aerlous
results must almost certainly have en
sued.—London Dally Mall.

What Science Mas to Bay of Natural
Crim Inals,
The new science of criminal nnthro
pology has done much to disclose the
cause of criminal disposition In men.
hut It haa nn suggeatlons to make ao
to the prevention or punishment of
crime. It can only claaaify the facto It
observes. Huggeatlona from expert
criminologists art of no more value
than suggestion from any other kind
of men. The criminologist can tell ua
(and amull comfort It la so to be told)
that the professional thief la born, nnd
not made, and that thief he will remain
by nature hla s whoIe life long. The
criminologist can tell us that It la im
possible to "reform” the criminal's
character without reforming hla brain.
The counterfeiter who has spent forty
years In prison und Is returned thither
at the age of seventy-three does net
argue much hope for the reform of
criminals. But what Is to be done with
him? How Is\lt possible to prevent
a typically prlmlntlve reverstve man
such aa the late Csolgues, from using
political methods which were quite
common and natural with the savage
ancester of whom he was a type born
out of time? Cxoigoss did not slay be
cause he was an anarchist. He slew
because he was a primitive man. r
was not an habitual criminal, and ..
was possible that he might never have
.acquitted ^tmaelf In an extraordinary
manner had not his environment. Join
ed with hla reverstve brain, set up the
asorlatlnn of ideas and the consequent
chain of rlrrumstancea that culminated
In his stonalng deed. The hornvil matt

and his kind; nor can the normal matt
