" ’Twns ever thus. As fur hack as the •dnya of Dnnicl Webster labor agitators were constantly stirring up trouble bo • tween employer and employee. Tills is evident from a speech delivered by the eminent Massnehnsette statesman In i the U. 8. Senate in 18118. Upon'that oe- • ciision Mr. Webster discoursed ns fol 1 lows— “There lire persons who constantly • 'clamor. They complain of oppression and speculation, mid the pernicious in fluency of necumulated wealth. They cry ■ ont.-loudly ugiiinst all banks mid corpor - atious, and all means by which small ■.capitals become united in order to pro duce important and bcncflclal results, They cry out in mad hostility against all established institutions. They would .choke the fountain of Industry and dry • oil streams. In n country where prop- «ty is more evenly divided thsu any where else, thev rend the air shouting agrarian dostrinos. In a eountry of uatxunded liberty they clamor against . (Oppression. In a country of perfect eqmJlity they would move heaven and earth mgninst privilege and monopoly, ln>a country where the wages of labor axe .high beyond parallel, they would tear* the laborer that he is but an op pressed slave.’’ Yes, the labor-and-wage problem is as old as the ages, and not until the mil lennium may we expect to see Capital terms of |>erfect amity.

Tlie Htnte luia been ivided into live regiona, with a idiuir- i for cadi having approximately thirty countieK under bin general super- Salon. The county unit organization, however, is probably tlie moat important factor uf the entire plan, nail tlie gon- ral committee ia exercising tlie great- at care in choosing moil to whom tlie appointments will be offered.

How iiisignilicnut it is I Simply n bit of cold metal, so small that it eludes the grasp. To the toueh it is dull nud ir responsive, and its delicate brightness vanishes forever with a breath. Yet there is a magic of something embodied in it that clothes it with dignity and power. Its discovery marked nn epoch in the world’s history. Upon that day light dawned, intelligence began to be spread, superstition fled, and n new or der of things appeared. That small, in significant type wrought a revolution From that little unronmntie German city which gave to it birth and shelter has circled out until its influence hss reached every habitable place upon the globe—touching every home, every mart of trade, and every jrofessionnl calling. In n suburban school recently a little Swede presented himself for instruction. “What is your Wine?” the teacher naked. “Young Olson," he said. “How old are youf’’ ‘ * Ay not know how old Ay bane. ’ “Well, when were you bornf” “Ay bane not born at ail; Ay got a step-mutter.” ’ Elephants are entirely vegetarian diet, feeding on the leaves and twig* of trees and on grass. Jam will keep much better if tied down firmly white hot, than if so treated after it has become cooL “SHE TEMPTED ME.’’ Carrollton Free Press. Every once In a while some city min ister gets on the front page of the big dailies by making some sensational charge about women’s dress. Placing the label of “temptress’’ on the brow of womanhood is an old. old practice. To our mind this is an insult to decent womanhood. The disgusting yammering of every moral wastrel, every worthless down-and-out, and every sniveling mas culine vamp, resolves itself into the nnu- seuting whine, ‘' Woman caused my downfall.” It is the rotten come-back of the time-worn excuse, “The wduian tempted me, anil I did eat.” Recently n Philadelphia minister gave the following orthodox figures' for wo man ’s “proper” dress: The skirt may ha night or nine inclica from tho ground; the back of the wuiat should not be mure thun three inches below the neck, and the front not more than four inches be low the neck; the sleeves should come at least to the elbow; silk stockings are morally harmful. What does that fellow know about it.’ We believe Hint tlie majority of men will not consider her evil and believe that she lies in wait to wreck their im mortal souls. On tlie other hand, there are many men whose mere lecherous gaze is profanation, to a woman. For our pnrt, wo believe it is the ex ceptional instance where a woman tempts a man to do anything but that which is good. When Joan of Arc sought the way of tlie Cross she wore skirts that lime only to her knees._ The world lias been overfed on this libelous “she- femptod-me” stuff, and it is coming to feel only contempt for snrtorial direc tions from its pulpits and platforms. Tho women we have known intimately (assessed souls filled with right long- iigs, pure aspirations, whispering hopcH. They have been noble wives and mothers, nud if they want to draw their skirts above tlie tilth of tlie streets, and avoid tlie choking collars that fool men wear, o see no reason why they should be scolded or blamed for what is merely, an exhibition of good sense. OLD-FASHIONED. Exchange. “Everything is so old-fashioned around this town,” exclaimed a young man the other day. The remark was oc- asioned by one of those restless, dis consolate moods which visit every soul imprisoned in a living body. His use of the word "old-fashioned” seemed ont of place, although we frequently apply it te tluit which is dull and tiresome, because tlie more we think, tho more we investigate; the more we leorn, the more o become convinced that “there is nothing now.” Tho sun has never failed to ^Hit tlie eastern sky each morning and tinge the west ut night, though his Inily visitations have been unceasing for iigos beyond the comprehension of man. Beautiful sunsets are old-fashion ed and common, nud yet the sight in- urinbly awakens n. thrill in the. mean est soul. Tho same palo moon that shines tonight was a silent witness of the burning of Troy, tho fall of Baby lon and the destruction of Pompeii. The stars liavo mystified tlie minds of men since men became possessed of minds. God is old-fashioned, and His inexor able laws never hiivd and nover will be violated without tlie penalty being exalted. Electricity,.-unchained,' flashed ith the same vivid grandeur through tlie stormy heavens, tlie wind shrieked aiyl howled with tho snmo wild fury, mid the thunder rolled with the same nppnlling crush on tlie night that Lear, aged mid infirm, was denied the shelter of his ow,n poor roof. * Love—the love of a mother for her babe, and of man for a maid—is old- fashioned. That book of books, the Holy Bible, is old-fashioned.
