PREDICTIONS FOI! 1993 Four Bright Journalists Fore cast the Future. OATH PLEADS FOR FEDERALISM. Nym Crinkle Estimates the I'robiible Prog ress of Literature and tho Drama—Den ver Will Be as Biff us New York—Views of John Swinton am! Kate Field on Varl- , ous .Subjects. ICopyrtght, 1893, by American Press Associa tion.] Tho federalist founders of the republic of the United States, Jay, Hamilton and j Washington, as interpreted by Marshall, Kent, Quincy Adams, Seward and Lincoln, are felt in our day through the decrepit or chaotic provincial states as the spinal life and brain of our system. These opponents pass more and more to the rear us demagogues and confidence men as the superiority of our federal institu tions and spirit are seen by the rising gen erations. In proportion as the subsidiary states share this federal or natioual instiuctdo they rise to the success of the uation. 1 apprehend that it will tako another con vulsion, and that probably not an extensive one—perhaps a foreign war—to permanent ly settle the supremacy of the nation in ev ery uncriminal mind. The weakness of the federal government now is due to tho states who contribute to it their representative caitiffs as senators, justices and even presidents. The last message of thegovernorof South Carolina, the most wayward of all our early provinces, shows the failure of an obstrep erous state sovereignty in the refusal of the people, though they disobey the federal laws of suffrage, to pay their taxes, main tain their public schools, uphold their one university—the first one where free trade, rebellion anil secession were taught—or subdue their factional and social animosi ties. Good citizens of such a state must in evitably turn toward the cordial and help ful federalism at Washington, and so, 1 think, when wo have a less mercenary newspaper press and can for less income tell more truth, the poorer anil raggeder states will come iu like the prodigal son and say, "Father, I have sinned against heaven and in thy sight; make me one of thy hired servants." The necessities of dull states, the good sense of great states, all bear toward rais ing and respecting the one federal father hood which taxes while we sleep, so that we do not feel tho rib taken from our body, and applies that subtraction to delightful taste and intercourse. Out of the one public estate have come all these railways, school sections, new and great cities, irrigating works, mines, etc. Where the federal works are expensive the state politicians make them so. Who would not rather trust the United States engineers than a state legislature, either for wisdom or virtue? The faith heretofore lacking in the su preme legislature through local and press demagogy will, when restored, make honor at Washington the public standard. Liberty has descended to us through tim orous and excitable men like Jefferson, as a stockade surrounded by Indians. Liberty ought to be not the suspicion of mutual egotists, but tho beautiful respect and har mony between man and his family. The unequal civilization of the parts of our country, the assembling as tribes in stead of fellow countrymen, the law of life and property in one part, the law of spasm and force in another part, the long results of slavery and nonpayment of taxes, must and will yield. Excessive wealth ought to he taxed in its full proportiou, not more, for remove the stimulus of wealth and at present America is nothing. Tho church has become nonentity, except as a dead pull hack ou hold and noble thinking. Literature, until the other day, had no care from the lawmaking power. Science is doing well, but is taking fat tolls from its generation. Would not a better interpretation of government than ours have bought the telephone at the outset for a million dollars instead of taxing every customer in two generations fifty dollars a year? Europe is influencing us greatly, and that will last long and probably for our good. What could we learn from North Carolina or Indiana that would ho better than European intercourse? We must nourish our peasantry, includ ing the 8,000,000 of our blacks, for an empire without servants might almost be without homes or utensils. What have these wretched states done to discipline the poor in the mechanic and household arts? The farmers are without public spirit or they would have better roads and con veniences. From the cities and the villa seats are to come the immediate helps to progress. Individual life needs more liberty than dogma anil fashion will accord. He who confiscates my Sunday to serve his super stition tyrannizes over one-seventh of my life. When we become free indeed it will not cost us so much to live, for fashion and church thrive upon our acquiescent slavery. The home, too, should be free, the civil aud not tho clerical power should do ull the marrying; these broken homes are often the result of tho mercenary and secret priest marrying the dissolute, the half grown and the runaway to each other. Temperance and legislation have little to do with each other. Liquors ought to ho inspected anil adulterating brewers to wear stripes. Woman's great triumph, and man's, too, will be not to need the ballot often; she ballots alone and uninfluenced for a man. Perhaps the old maids might be given the Australian ballot to widen the understand ing of it. Private societies usurping the law's func tions in tho name of morals are Spanish in quisitions and too often directed by men of hideously perverted animality. Tho United States—not the Texas con trived interstate commission—ought to bo a strong power in our railways and to own the telegraphs. The world is interested in our becoming not a Christian so much as a humane and scientific empire, with one hand secured upon the people's will and tho other free to labor for their lasting welfare. I hope the most honored American in 1993 will he George Washington. GEORGE ALFRED TOWNSEND. Kate Field's Forecast. What American now living will be most honored in 1993? Grover Cleveland, if he fulfills the expec tation of his best friends. Never were the problems confronting this republic so great and so many as those which the next presi dent of the United States must meet and iioswer. On these answers depends our sal ration for many a year to come; hence the necessity of u great and enlightened patriot in the White House, and hence such a ver dict as I predict should Grover Cleveland prove himself to he the George Washington and Abraham Lincoln of this generation. Where will be our greatest cityf In all probability Chicago. There will be wonderful cities in the west, none more beautiful aud extensive than Salt Lake City; but unless all sigus fail Chicago will take precedence. Will the race be happier, healthier and handsomer than now? All depends on our women. If they marry for love and not for convenience; if they cultivate the inside of their heads as sedu lously as they now study fashion; if they "go in" for sound bodies such as nature in tended the mothers of the human race to possess; if they teach their children self re spect and respect for authority, Americans of 1993 will regard their ancestors of 1893 as little less than vulgar, ignorant heathens. What is the future of the servant prob lem ? Again, all depends on women. When they know their own business and learn the meaning of Christianity there will ho no servant problem. In dress? Ouce more the question must be settled by women. Should American women do their own thinking in the next hundred years they will not import their fashions, and they will wear nothing that interferes with a magnificent physical development. Trains will be reserved for the house; cor sets and high heels will be sent to Coventry; the waist line will be just below the bosom, and Atalauta will live again. Is the condition of the laboring class likely to become more or less dependent? There has been a steady improvement in the condition of what is falsely called tho "laboring class," as though no one worked except the manual laborer. I only hope that the brain worker will he as well paid , in 1993 as will he the manual laborer, who is fast controlling the fates of this republic and reducing human capacity to a dead level of mediocrity. All men should bo • born free, but all ruen are not born equal, | trades unions to the contrary. There always have been, as there always will he, leaders. Iu temperance legislation? So called temperance legislation is a tem porary aberration of well meaning but nar row minded men and women with whom sentimentality supplants reason, and who actually think morals are an uffair of legis lation. One hundred years hence personal liberty will he more than a phrase. When it is a fact sumptuary laws will ho as im possible as witch burning is now. KATE FIELD. Nym Crinkle on Literature and the Drama. What will he the condition of literature and drama 100 years hence? To keep the answer to this question out of the category of mere guesses on tho one hand and save it from the imputation of rash prediction on the other, it must he de duced from the indications of the present. There is a feverish energy in every de partment of intellectual life just now that is symptomatic. Every person of fairly good education and of restless mind writes a hook. As a rule, it is a superficial hook, hut it swells the bulk and it indicates tho cerebral unrest that is trying to express it self. We have arrived at a condition In which more books are printed than the world can read. This is true not only of hooks that are not worth reading, hut it is true of the hooks that are. All this 1 tuko to he the result of an In telleetual afTranchisement that is new, and of a dissemination of knowledge instead of a concentration of culture. Everybody wonts to say something. But it is slowly growing upon the world that everybody has not got something to say. Therefore one may even at this moment detect the causes which will produce reac tion. In 100 years there will not be so mauy books printed, but there will be more said. That seems to me to ho inevitable. It is certainly in the direction of intellectual do- I velopment, which implies that man reaches a condition individually and socially, if ho progresses at all, in which ho wires less about talking than about doing. Ilut, taking the whole bulk of current literature, good, bad and indifferent, and ' acknowledging that as a mass it is more active than profound, there is nevertheless j an observable tendency in it—it is measur- j ably moving toward a somewhat! If we can get the direction and the ratio ! we may reasonably measure its progress i during the next century. Now what is that tendency? I do not see how any one can diligently : investigate the material without perceiving that its slow advance is toward a better humunity, a closer fraternity, a broader charity. These signs are unmistakable even in Its lighter veins of cynicism and persi flage. Nine-tenths of all the Imaginative writers are jibing at the wrongs of society. The other tenth are jibing at the political short comings. Ofcoursethcy have ideals, against which they adjust tho real. Some of these ideals nro made of moonlieams; some are wildly impracticable; others are fantasies on Plato's notion or travesties of More's dream. But the incentive is u restless senso of imperfection and a growing conscious ness of a central sun somewhere in tho moral and intellectual universe which is pulling all things to it. When this is not a distinctly theistio feeling, it is a vague philosophic counterpart of it. So far as this is a gain in unity and rear I souablenesn, it is a permanent gain. I can , conceive of no political or social disaster that will destroy it. The philosopher who undertakes to sur vey this ground needs not ho an extreme ! optimist to see that there is a distinct ethic al gain in the aggregate of intellectual work. When it does not lead it reflects, in broken and uncertain gleams, the spirit of the age, and that spirit stands for a better solidarity and a nobler destiny for man. Under all the factors that must influence the intellectual future, broader and deeper than any of them lies education. If you want to find out what tho future man will say you will have to ask, What will ho know? At this moment the whole educational energy of the country is centering itself ou the want of an ethical basis of instruction. It is not alone the Cntholic church that ob jects to the system which makes smart men instead of good men. Some of the wisest of Protestant teachers have conceded that our public school system is fatally deficient in the elemental teaching which develops the fnoral sense and makes honest citizens. This protest, I take it, is another form of the reaction against the intense materi alism of the time. But it is also a sign of intellectual development. No one who studies it can doubt that the education of our youth during tin; next fifty years will he in a measure freed from the mathemat ical restrictions of the present courses. If we now recognize the fact that labor everywhere is insisting that more time to study and rest shall betaken from toil, and add this to the fact that the studies promise to improve in the direction of ethics, I do not see how we can avoid tho conclusion that, barring some great and incalculable convulsion that would throw mankind ! backward a hundred years, tho coming in tellectual workers will he less superficial, more thoroughly equipped for their work, of larger views and broader catholic spirit, with less creed in their religion and more of God and humanity. Tho encyclopedic man, who makes a show of knowing all things, will give way to the specialist, who makes an effort to kuow one thing and know it well. The newspaper which has made a bold incursion into current literature has with tho stimulus of competition overdone the mutter, and there is already a tendency to go to the review for expressions of opinion. We hear continually of the demoralization of the press, which means the populariza tion of the newspaper at the expense of con viction. There is going to be a reaction in that field. There ought to be, and there undoubtedly will be in New York or some other commercial and intellectual Ameri can center, a press which will express the convictions of the wisest minds in all de partments of thought, irrespective of what u party or a corporation or an advertiser wants. Such a paper whoso opinions cannot he bought, whose convictions cannot be fright ened and whose good will cannot be cajoled will bring the power of the press up to tho traditional standard, and its opinion will command tho attention of the world. It is American just now to want the news. As tho facilities for gathering it and dissemi nating it increase, the intelligent public will want something eiae. They will re flect as well as apprehend. They will have more leisure to think. The present rate of headlong material activity cannot he kept up for another hundred years. Already a new class is multiplying, which is reaping the leisure that its fathers made possible with drudgery and heart failure. The continent is all explored and nearly all surveyed. There will scarcely be another Pike's peak fever. While 1 am writing this the statesmen of the country ure asking themselves if it is not time to make laws which shull restrict if they do uot put a stop to immigration. In 100 years Denver will be as big as New York and in the center of a vast population. If the republic remains politically compact and doesn't fall apart at the Mississippi river, Canada will be either part of it or an independent sovereignty, and t%e northern shore of the Gulf of Mexico will bo the Riviera of the western continent. It is not possible to estimate the per petuity and progress of tho United States without feeling that its political majesty and Its beneficent freedom will react upon the intellectual expression of tho people. The solidarity, tlie general happiness ol the nation, will find an outcome in nobler works of art and science. In that hundred years we will have ma tured our poet and found our Moliere or our Shakespeare. The gestation of genius is by centuries. Of course I do not suppose that the in coming century will bring the millennium. We all kuow that progress often depends on disaster its character depends on suffer ing and no one can tell what upheavals are in store for us. History, on the whole, is very sad reading, and it is the lesson not of uninterrupted material prosperity, but of rise, decline and fall. But in our present rate of progress is much hope and some calculable signs. In 100 years the public will desire better read ing, because it must reach a better platio of thinking. The genus of great universi ties will have matured their fruit by that time. The world will be in closer touch. Mercy will march with war and arbitrtv tiou precede it. Somewhere the nation will have an intellectual capital with n national library and a national theater. It will have developed an art school of its own. The ideal man and woman will have an , opportunity to use all plastic arts, and will speak to us in literature and drama. The homes of the country will have been quad rupled, and it is the home that fixes the status of the theater. As we increase the enjoyments of the family circle we lessen the attraction of the cheap public enter tainments, which depend upon the hotels and the floating poptlation. We can see even now that sectarian bar riers are crumbling. Men are climbing over the ecclesiastical fences to get nearer to each other, and they have found that as they come together they approach tho eternal reason. In a hundred years man will have learned the lesson of trusting his brother, and tho nation which has drawn all peoples to it with a cosmic gravitation and lifted them with freedom and confidence will also have destroyed the prejudices of race and tho animosities of sect. Such a view presents the new solidarity of fraternity, but it is the old lesson which that first democrat dauntlessly proclaimed on Mars' hill. A. C. WHEELER (Nym Crinkle). John Sainton's Views. When the old saw grinder said that "We can judge of the future only by the past" and predicted that "The things which will he are the things which have been," I re piled to him in the Hebrew language with the word "Amen!" Well, then, suppose that the wiseacres of the lifteeuth century while hanging up these maxims had judged of the future Sixteeuth century by the past Fourteenth century, and concluded that the one must bo even as the other had been, it would now he evident to us of this time that they did not foresee the consequences of the discovery of America, or of Gutenberg's invention, or of Luther's antipapal mutiny, or of the doom of Islam, or of the Renaissance. So, again, if the wiseacres who lived at the opening of bust century, when Louis XIV was king of France and William 111 was the sovereign of the British American colonies, believed that their century would leave things as they found them, it would now bo evident to us who live at this time that they had not forecast the events of 177> in this country, or those of 1793 In France, or many others that were on record before the year 1800. And ro yet again it may be taken for granted that the wiseacres who worked the , old saw at the opening of our owu Nine j teenth century, while judging tho future by tho past, did not have any prevision of I the transformations to be brought about during the century in South America, Asia and Africa, or even in such European coun tries as Germany and Italy. I cannot foretell the course or the opera- I tions of the whirligig of time during the next hundred years. lam disposed to sur mise that the historian who in 1993 makes I record thereof will have to get up a big book. ! I guess that there will he great political and social changes in our country before the year 1993, anil that these changes will ho advantageous to the community at large. I guess that before the next century shall end the functions and powers of our gov ernment will be greatly enlarged; that rail roads, telegraphs and many other things ; now held as private spoil will he public | property; that law, medicine and theology will he more reasonable than they now are that the inventions and discoveries will l> 1 greater than we have ever yet had, and that j the welfare of mankind will he higher that i it is in this age of confusion.

All the world knows, at least by reputa tion, the great seminary of St. Sulpice, es tablished in Paris near the magnificent church of the same name. This seminary was founded in the time of Louis XIII by a man of admirable virtue and saintliness— the Abbe Olier. Before settling in Paris M. Olier and his first associates dwelt at Vaugirard, in a community house, and prepared themselves by the practice of penitence, prayer, pover ty and the care of the unfortunate—in one word, by the following of a Christian life, to become the proper instruments for the grand design which had been formed among them. M. Olier frequently collected his pi<Ais comrades into the great chamber and ex horted them with indefatigable zeal to ad vance in the paths of perfection, to become saintly priests, and especially to combat, to mortify, to immolute the "old man"—that is to say, the evil inclinations of the corrupt nature. The house was guarded by an elderly gardener named Thomas, who lived with his wife in a little cottage at the end of the garden. Thomas had noticed these secret reunions of the disciples of M. Olier in the great chamber. He had spoken of it to his wife, and both inquired of themselves jvhy the good gentlemen should thus as semble. Old Thomas, as suspicious as his wife, resolved one day to penetrate the mystery, and in default of a better method went to j listen at the door. On the evening of the day when he had taken this resolution there was to be a meeting at M. Olier's house, which Thom as knew. Ho advanced upon the tips of his toes, applied his ear to the door and heard talking. Listening, ho distinguished the voice of M. Olier, and as the silence of the auditors was profound he beard these words: 1 "Gentlemen, gentlemen, what awaits us? Let us put ourselves to the work even to day. For a long time we have held back. Immolate the old man without pity, with out hearkening to his murmurs and his cries. Is not this the price that we must pay? This is an enemy always ready to de stroy us, always near to us, who will kill us if wo do not sacrifice him with courage. Of what use is it to make resolutions if we do not execute thein? There has been enough delay; the moment has come." Thomas was the only uged person in the house. One may judge of his surprise, his terror, when ho heard M. Olier urge his companions not to hesitate to immolate the "old man!" Evidently this threat was directed toward him, and to follow in the same day to lili his place with a young gar- j doner. Pale as death, he sought shelter in j his own house. "Wife," he said, "wife, we are lostl ! Quickl save yourself from here! We are 1 among cutthroats! They intend to kifcl : us—l heard them! Wo have only barely j time to make up our bundles! Oh, who j could have believed it? Men with so good j an air, who have testified so much friend- ! ship to me. What can you tell by looks?" j Thus lamenting and recounting to his terror stricken wife what he had heard, Thomas gathered into two or three great baskets what was most valuable. But it was too late. While thus engaged in their i preparations for flight the door opened* and I M. Olier appeared upon the threshold, j "Thomas," said lie, "you will summon us ; in five minutes for supper. Do you hear me? But what are you doing? What are I tlieso packages? Where are you going?" j Old Thomas, believing himself at his last j | moment, with his hair bristling upon his | j head, stammered some words. He imagined he saw some weapon in the hands of M. | Olier. Then, unable to longer contuin him- j self, lie cried: "Wicked man, I know you at lust! Hyp- J ocrite, traitor, ussnssinl I have heard uli! Help! Police!" Poor Abbe Olier was stupefied. "What is the matter with you, Thomas?" said lie. "Are you mad?" "No, no, I am not mad!" cried the old 1 gardener. "Sooner to God that 1 was mad! I Police! Police! Help! It is not worth while j to pretend longer. I repeat, I heard all. I was at the door while you were encourag- j ing your traitorous companions to kill me j this evening. Oh, sir, how wicked of you! i Mo who loved you so well! Why should you kill me? It is only necessary to ! simply semi me away if you have a new j servant you wish to put in my place." "But I know not, in truth, what all this means," responded M. Olier, more and more j surprised. "Explain yourself. Who did ! you think was going to kill you?" "Youl" "I?" "Yes; you, you, you! I recognized youi | voice in your preaching tone hurungue when you said, less than an hour ago, to immolate ! ! the 'old man' who was ever as an enemy in ! j the house, and not to hesitate to follow ! i your advice" At these words M. Olier comprehended the misunderstanding, and laughing with all his heart departed from the cottage to tell the story to his comrades. They came in a body to Thomas' house, and after great difficulty made lain under stand that they had no animosity against him. But it was for a long period and only after many conversations with the good Abbe Olier that he was convinced of lag error and ceased to carry about with him concealed weapons to defend himself.— i Translated by o.
