EEPUTATION IN NEWSPAPER WORK A roller oi lie HtUlnrr. Dispatch That is Wwthy ct General Imitation. ICOERESPOSDEhXK Or THB DISP.A.TCH.I Chicago, July 20. Of the score of Judges who preside over the higher courts of Chicago one of the most practical, hard headed and business like is John P. Alt geld. The lawyer who tries hia case before him has to keep down to business. The man who tries to kill time in his court finds himself prodded with a very sharp goad. With almost a contempt for technicalities and subtle refinements he goes quickly to the merits of a dispute and settles it promptly, leaving the disappointed litigant to appeal if be wants to. Judge Altgeld is emphatically a self made man. Starting in a new country without a dollar he has build up a handsome fortune by shrewd and successful instru ments. He became a lawyer and tailed, tried again and succeeded, and now, while yet a young man, he is regarded as one of the ablest, and certainly is one of the most useful men on the bench. In politics he is a Democrat, and is credited with socialistic tendencies, but he Has no scruples against buying acre tracts and subdividing them or against building great warehouses and drawing substantial rents from them. He has always been regarded as A TKIESD OF THE TVOEKINGKAK. He has the leaningsTand sympathies one might expect to find in a sensible, well inlormed workman turned into a judge, and perhaps for that reason, is not regarded with very great partiality by attorneys who rep resent the interests of monopolistic corpora tions. He has just published a volume of essays entitled "Live Questions," in which a number ot important topics are treated in a yery able and interesting way, and with the evident intention oi doing the very ut most one man can to right some ot the wrongs and correct some of the abuses which he has observed. In running over an essay on "Anonymous Journalism," one wonld almost imagine that the author half regretted that he had not made a reputation as a newspaper man like the late Henry "W. Grady or Henry "Watterson instead of as a judge. He would have the writer of every article in a daily paper attach his name to it, and he believes that, if that policy were adopted and steadily pursued, it would work a revolution in the newspaper and the newspapermen of to-day. It would put stronger and abler men in charge of the great papers, would make them more accurate, more able, more fair, more just, and most of all would give the journalist of to-day a reputation and a standing in the community of which he is deprived by the present policy of anony mous writing. BRAINY NEWSPAPER WORKERS. "The newspaper men of to-day," he says, 'have as much natural ability, as high aspirations, as much common honesty and as strong an inclination to do right as had those of three-quarters of a century ago. Iu fact, it must be said of the rank and file of newspaper men that it is doubtful whether any other calling contains so large a percentage of young men who possess, in the highest degree, the attributes necessary to achieve success and eminence is the world. As a rule they are intelligent, in dustrious, and, in moral character, will compare favorably with the devotees of any other profession; and, if the conditions of newspaper work were the same now as they were earlier in the century, the newspaper fraternity would develop more great men and furnish more great public characters than are furnished by any other class. "But the blight, the weakening influence of anonymous writing, settles upon all, es pecially those connected with the large city papers; and, as a rule, they move along comparatively unknown, and die unbonored by the public, never establishing a reputa tion commensurate with their ability or with the great amount of work they do an amount of work which, under more favor able conditions, would win them immor tality." THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH TOLICr. Evidently the author is in full sympathy with the generous policy pursued by The Pittsburg Dispatch in encouraging all the leading members of its staff to sign their names to their more important articles and to their reports of important news events such as the recent Harrisburg and Scranton conventions and the mine horror at Dunbar, but he would carry the idea further and make every expression of editorial opinion, and every paragraph, which touched the character of the private citizen, bear the name of its author, so that a brilliant man on the editorial staff would receive due credit for his brains, and so that it would be impossible for a malicious editor or reporter to "sandbag" a victim from under cover. The Chicago Judge is right. A lawyer who does a brilliant thing, either in win ning cases in court or in conducting the affairs of great corporations, gets credit for it. He has produced certain results in the face of very great difficulties. He has shown that by reason of his brains or his in dustry he is capable of exerting certain in fluence and the public and gives him credit for it, and he is nerved to surpass himself at the next opportunity. AN EDITOR'S IDENTITY. An editor skillful in the use of his pen, may exert a very mnch greater influence. "With a paragraph he may turn the success of a political party into failure. By a time ly word he may avert an impending public disaster. By arousing the moral sentiment of a community, he may, and frequently does, put an end to schemes that would otherwise cause infinite harm. Yet he re mains so absolutely unknown in the com munity over which he exerts so great an In fluence, that scarcely half a hundred people know him outside of the circle of his daily associates. A Chicago man picked up The Pitts burg Dispatch the other day, and, glanc ing over an editorial, remarked that it was exceptionably able, and showed a fine ap preciation of the subject of which it treated. Perhaps 20,000 people in Pittsburg thought the same thing as they glanced over it the day before, yet not CO of them had the re motest idea of the personality of the man who wrote it. Only a few ot the active workers for Pittsburg newspapers could even make a surmise as to the name of its writer. "WRITERS' REPUTATION.

He will not allow his future achievements to fall below that standard ii tinn ,-! i. But no such reward comes to the anonymous editor. u.ii, luo same salary as before. aims m nlhAHita . -. and emains nnknown, and finally, after many years ot great usefulness, drops off "nnhonored and unsung." It is gratuying that the tendency of the day, as shown in such papers as The Dis patch, is to allow the able newspaper man to make an individual reputation. In the interest or the paper, the public and him self he ought to be compelled to do it by signing everything be writes, or at least ev wrthlng outside ot the merest routine work. In all the literature on the eight-hour movement the case of the advocates ot thn "short day" has nowhere been stated more logically or more forcibly than in a speech published in this volume, which was deliv ered in February last on the eve of the Chi cago carpenters strike. The issue was never more aptly put than when the speak er said that "when one class of people is confined to, and is exhausted by manual la bor, the former class will soon bo absolutely in the power of the latter." THE EIGHT-HOUR SYSTEM. A short hour movement to be successful, he believes, must be coextensive with the field of competition, and therefore any at tempt to 'introduce the eight-hour system into the manufacturing world must be general. This will require universal and thorough organization on the part of the laboring classes. "Without thorough or ganization, no movement of that kind can succeed, and the organization must not only be general, but it must embrace all lines of labor; it must be general in order that the movement may be general; it must embrace all lines in order; first, so that they can support each other; second, that there may be concert of action; third, that the million or more of men ont of employment, and who are hungry, will not at once rush in and maintain the old system; and, what is still more important, that the movement may be controlled by reason and kept free from violence." An essay on "Arbitration of Strikes" is well worthy ot careful reading. The author believes that, when any considerable num ber of men are involved in a strike and others are thrown out of work iu conse quence of it, it is emphatically not only the right, but also the duty, of the State to step in and put an end to it, JUST ARBITRATION. Conceding that it would be impossible for any board of arbitration to compel an un willing employer to run his mill, or to com pel unwilling workmen to resume their work, he believes that a fairly constituted board of arbitrators, having the confidence of both parties, can terminate any labor dis pute. He would mace tne board not perma nent, but provisional ibr each case, consist ing ot one representative chosen by the men and one by their emplover and an umpire selected by the two. He would give the arbitrators full power to investigate and would make their award final and subject to no appeal. Many of the ideas advanced in the essay are embodied in the arbitration law of Pennsylvania, which was passed in 18S3, under the sponsorship of Senator Wallace, and which, by-the-way, has never been made use ot in any of the many labor disputes which have occurred since it was placed on the statute books. Some time ago a bright woman reporter of one of the Chicago papers wrote a series of descriptive articles on the working girls or Chicago the thonsands of young women who are employed at starvation wages in manufacturing or mercantile establishments and forced to work for long hours in very unfavorable surroundings. THE POOR WORKING GIRLS. At the close oi the series, the editor ad dressed a letter to a number of representa tive citizens asking them to suggest a remedy for the evils he had disclosed and this formed the occasion for an essay on "The Slave Girls of Chicago." The author takes the ground that while legislation may do much, the great remedy is to raise the standard of intelligence of the girls. "Until this is done," he says, "they can do little to help themselves, for ignorance and helpless ness go together. Society can do this, and it can lurnish them protection nothing more nor will much more be required, tor this once done they will be able to take care ot themselves." But it is worthy of note that Chicago "society" is doing nothing of the sort. The "slave girls" toil on to-day just as they toiled before the light of pub licity was turned upon them. Bat all this has been written without a word having been said on the subjects of court machinery and the treatment of criminals, with which fully one-half of the volume is taken, up. EVILS OP LEGAL PROCEDURE. Jndge Altgeld is quite an iconoclast. He wonld abolish the grand jury, because it delays trials aud thereby facilitates the escape of the guilty, and unnecessarily harasses the innocent prisonerwho is unable to furnish bail and is obliged to remain in jail tor months awaiting trial. He does not believe in requiring the unanimous verdict ot the jury in civil cases. He has a hearty detestation of the justice court system, in. vogue in Chicago and Pittsburg, in which the magistrate is paid out of the fees of his court, and he thinks that infinite harm is caused by the practice of Chicago policemen iu making unnecessary arrests "running in" large numbers of unfortunates in order to keep up their record lor vigilance and activity. If Judge Altgeld were Czar of Chicago for a while visitors would scarcely recognize the place, but the changes would be mostly for the better. L. M. Ackley. THE BOO SAVED THE CHILD.

An incorporated manufacturing company with a complete new works in operation making a special line of goods withont com petition has concluded to increase its cap ital stock from 575,000 to S125.000 in order to donble its products. The goods made are sold on short time -at a large profit, and out put ot the works can be doubled with in creased capital provided. The managers are good business men, and their experience justifies the assertion that quarterly divi dends can be paid from tbe earnings of the company equal to, if not greater, than any Pittsburg corporation is now paying: The $50,000 of new stock may be subscribed for in lots from five shares upward, but an active man with capital to take the entire block or a greater portion of it, to whom good position will be givea, is preferred as a buyer.

A Canndlnn Woman Recovering From an Attack of Lockjnw. Ottawa. Jnlv 26. It Is a generally acknowl edged theory that "tetanus," usually known as "lockjaw." is fatal to those attacked. A recent case at Portsmouth proves tnat there is an ex ception to every rule. About six weeks ago Mrs. Doyle, wife of Mr, James Doyle, a guard In the penitentiary, trod on a nail, which made a wound In her foot. She dressed the wound, and shortly It was apparently well. Ten days afterward she was attacked by aches and pains, and bad to take to her bed. At first her jaws began to stiffen, 'and then each mnsele in the body, one by wne. became rigid and useless, tbe teeth clenching firmly. She lay on her back lor many aays, paraiyzea in Doay. out sound in mind. Her hands, with lingers clenched, were drawn up over her shoulder, and every other limb was perfectly rigid. During the many days and nights, while she lay facing what all thought certain death, she was fed by means of a clay pipe, tbe stem of which was Inserted through a vacancy caused by a lost tooth. Gradually she- sank until she apparently appeared to be debilitated past all hones, but when at the lowest tbb her jaws slowly relaxed, and then one by one her limbs and muscles resumed their normal functions. She became enabled to take proper nourish ment, and now is on the road to recovery. She was attended by Dr. PhelaD, who says that the case is a most unusual one. Iff THE COSTUME OF ADAH. A Kudo Wanderer Creptes n Sensation In Lancaster County Lancaster, July 27. Considerable excite ment exists in tbe vieinlty of New Holland over a supposed wild man who has been roam ing over the country in a perfectly nnde condi tion. He is described by a number of persons who have seen him as a large and muscular looking man ana a stranger In the neighbor hood. About a year ago a man of similar de scription appeared in tbe same section and wandered about for days before he was appre hended. He was taken Into court and bis ex amination there proved htm to be of nnsound mind. He said in court that be was com manded by the spirits to take oC his clothes and their power over him was so great that he could not resist. He was sent to jail for a short time, and since then nothing has been heard of him. His de scription answers to that of tbe naked man noted above. Word has been sent to the con stables of Leacock aud adjoining townships to be on the lookout for him. C0BHEB STONE LAID.
