THE CITIZEN
The Way to Stop Strikes.
Melville C. Landon (Eli, Perkins), after
his tour of the world, recently gave a cam
ming up of the industrial situation to a
Pittsburg newspaper man as follows
"Since I was in Pittsburg a year ago I
have been around the world, and I find
Americans twenty times as prosperous
as anv people on earth. The
poor are twenty times richer than in any
part of the world. I found 1,200,000,000
people out of the 1.300,000,000 toiling for
something to eat. If 200,000,000 Indians
and 400,000,000 Chinamen can get three
bushels of barley a year to keep them from
starring they are satisfied."
"Did you hear of any strikes in the Or
ient!"
"Strikes! I should say not. They are
too poor and too busy earning money to
strike. There isn't labor enough to be
done in those countries. They are glad to
do anything at any price."
'•What makes the strikes here in Amer
icaf
'•Why, prosperity."
"What is the remedy for these strikes'
' Why. stop the prosperity. Reduce
wages."
"How can that be done?"
"Why, we Democrats can do it. We
will lower the tariff and make our fellow >
work for the same wages that they get on
the other side, plus the freight It is this
miserable McKinley bill that has made the
high wages, and high wages make iutem
porance, dissatisfaction and strikes. It is
only an over-fed horse that kicks. So we
Democrats will take off this miserable tar
iff. We will have our potters make pot
tery as cheap as they do in Japan and
China; have our tailors sew as cheap as
they do in Vienna; make our iron men
work a- oheap as they do in Birmingham,
and make our and gl :-- men work as
cheap as they do in Wales and Belgium.
The Republicans poured out $100,000,000
for pensions to the old soldiers. TIN ell
stop those prosperous times; stop these
Yankee manufactures; ship from Europe
and bring the workiegman on his kness,
where he won't be able to strike; where he
won't have time to strike."
"Then you think the McKinley bill has
caused the trouble?"
"Of course. It has given the manufac
turers protection and they have divided
with the men. The manufacturers get 50
per cent protection and pay their men 200
per cent more wages than anywhere on
earth. So we Democrats will make the
manufacturers poor, or make them stop
their mill, and they will have to reduce
wages. Reduced wages make idle mills,
and that will stop strikes. Kill this miser
able McKinley bill and two-thirds of our
mills will stop. There will be three labor
ers to a da) \s work. Do you think they
will strike then? Xo. The half starved
wretches will hover around the mills as
they do in India, Austria and Germany
and beg for work to keep them from starv
ing.
"In Japan a locomotive Engineer gets
50 cents a day. The same engineer gets
$1.50 iu England, and from three to
five here. Food in both places costs more
tfcan it does hero. Do they strike. I
should say not. Xo, we Democrats will
kill the protective tariff. We'll make the
workman as poor as they are in Europe
and there won't be any strikes. The 118-
Kmley bill makes too many factories —
makes too much demand for labor."
Lincoln's Religion.
A newspaper dispute is now going on as
to the religion of Abraham Lincoln. It
seems to us that it makes very little differ
ence what his religion was or whether he
adhered to any particular creed or repudi
ated them all. lie was one of God's chos
en instruments for the righting of wrongs
and for lifting mankind to higher and bet
ter ideals. His life and work wero a re
buke to those who fritter away their pow
ers in denouncing their fellow men because
they refuse to subscribe to this or that
theological fad. Lincoln had no theology,
but he had plenty of the very best sort of
Christianity.

And 10, the dead leaves that the autumn

From the heart of the earth there is war

Shall never in music or flame expire!' "

A Novel Philanthropic Idea.
THE HELPISii HASD VISITORS' CLCB.
"Oh ! how I wish I could get out of the
hot city for a little rest and change thi.-
summer ! I can't afford to pay ca.-h for .
my board: but. indeed! I'd ' e very glad to '
sew or do any kind of work about the
house for it." exclaimed a bright jotintr
, woman to a sympathetic customer with
philanthropic inclinaticL.. whom she was
serving. "No; I've no one I could visit,'
she continued, in rtplj to the natural sug
gestion that she might visit a trit!.
| A lew days lati;r the customer w cal- |
ling at a charming little home i:i a picas-:
ant suburb, when her hoste--, apropos of!
some pressing duties, said:
'lf I know of some nice y< ung woman j
who would like to spend a week or two in :
the country, and who wonld come aud
stay here and help me a little with ni\
work each day, I would board her without j
( charge, and be glad of the chance? It I
would really be a mutual benefit: she '
would hare an inexpensive outing.—a gen- i
uine outing, too, for I could ea.-ily arrange j
matters so that she might have a good por-j
tion of each day for recreation and to en- j
joy this bracing air and picture-quo scen
ery,—and I could get "caught up" in some
of my sewing, and hare some rest, too; j
and each would be giving a full equival- j
ent for value received. You're always !
studying up some plan to help people who j
try to help themselves, can't jou suggest
something for ray case?"
She of the philanthropic inclinations im
mediately bethought, herself of the bright
[ young woman in tho stifling city shop.
They talked the matter over, and in less
than a week the city girl was enjoying the
j longed-for country surroundings, v.-hile her
hostess was equally happy in the prospect
of getting "caught up" in her work and
having some rest. The experiment proved
a perfect success; and thus was sown the
germ which has grown into the Helping
j Hand Visitors' Club, a unique organization
j formed on the plan csrrird out in t: f.
experiment, through v.hicli th< 1 who|
have homes in the country and who would
like to receive a Helping Hand Visitor for
a sojourn of any specified length can be
put in communication with respectable
self-supporting women in cities, —clerks,
seamstresses, milliners, etc., —who though
anxiom to spend a short vacation in the
I country, cannot afford the necessary ex
( penditure tor board.
Undoubtedly there arc many who would
be glad to receive these young women into
their homes on condition that in return
for board and lodging they would render
some, seivice in sewing or housework,
leaving themselves, of course, sufficient
time during the day to enjoy the pleasures
of walks, drives, or other recreations.
A Central Bureau has been established
in New York for furthering tho purpose of
tho club, and extending its development
in all directions.
' Philanthropic women interested in form
ing local branches for carrying out this
great work, housekeepers wishing to re
ceive Helping Hand Visitors, or young
women desiring to spend their vacation
under such conditions, are invited to ad

—Two farmers were not long since dis
cussing their local paper. One thought
it had too many advertisments iu it. The
other replied: "Iu my opinion tho adver
tisments are far from being tho least valua
ble part of it. I look them over carefully
aud save at least five times the cost of the
paper each week through the business ad
vantages I get from them." Said the oth
er; "I believe you are right—-I know that
they pay me well and think that it is not
good taste to iind fault with tho advertis
ments after all." Those men havo the
right idea of the matter. It pays any man
with a family to take a local paper for the
sake of the advertisments If nothing more.
And if business men fail to give farmers a
chance to read advertisments in the local
paper, they are blinded to their own inter
ests to say the least of it. "You never
trade with me," said a business man to a
prosperous farmer. "You have never in
vited mo to your place of business and I
never go where lam not invited: I might
