The doctrine that public place is the proper spoils of party is not as prevalent as the so-called independents would have as believe.

VITIOVAL 00BTEBX5CB OF CHARITIES. The National Conference of Charities will meet In Omaha, Aug. 25. This annual gathering of may be termed the very best people engaged in humane and charitable enterprise Is of great importance to all those who believe In organized charitable work.

Most of the men who will come together at Omaha are veterans in the service of unfortunate and suffering humanity. They began as individuals years and years ago working for the amelioration of the condition of the helpless poor in the county Infirmaries, and for the better care of the insane and imbecile in various county and State institutions. They continued this work without encouragement from the public, and often In the face of the opposition of officials committed to the old plan of charitable work. As Individuals or by Individual effort they overcame so much of this opposition as to secure the recognition of State governments, and to bring about the enactment of laws under which practical reform was worked out. In later years they have continued their work in State and national organizations, and any one who remembers the condition of Jails and poor-houses twenty-five years ago, and who has practical knowledge of their condition now, will understand how much good these workers In the cause of humanity have accomplished.

The society that will meet at Omaha ap proaches as near the ideal of humane en. deavor as any organization in the world. The delegates may be as Individuals strong partisans and Strict sectarians, but in the National conference they drop the partisan and the sectarian. Their devotion to the cause of humanity shuts out the considera tions that would move either the partisan or the controversialist. They are so free from "the prejudices and Irritations that have interfered somewhat with charitable work among the churches that the strictest churchman would hardly be recognized as a churchman at all, because in work Catholics, Protestants, and Jews stand shoulder to shoulder striving earnestly for the betterment of the condition of the un fortunate of the race.

This spirit was Illustrated at the last meeting at St. FauL It so happened that the address on the death of Bishop Robertson was delivered by Babbl Sonneschein. The deceased bishop had been long identified with charitable work, and had been a mem. ber of the organization in which the rabbi had been a conscientious and earnest worker. When the Jewish scholar and thinker came to speak of the qualities of the dead Episcopalian bishop he exhibited such a thorough appreciation of Christian character, such a tenderness toward the humane side of a man of dlf- terent faith, and made in all so correct an estimate of his worth and work tbtthe.

audience jras profoundly touched. Bishob Ireland, also a tn ember of the con ference, speaking as "a Catholic, Indorsed what his friend the Jewish rabbi had And Bishops Gillespie and Whipple arose to express their appreciation of the words that had profoundly stirred them. The Bev. Dr. Byers, a Methodist, speaking of this scene afterward, said that nothing had so Im pressed him as this touching hands with tho Jewish rabbi by a Catholio bishop on one side and a Protestant bishop on the other.

It was emblematic of the spirit of the organization that has accomplished so much good in charitable work. The meet ing at Omaha will be like others In that it will call for the very best that the very best men can say of the work that has been done and of plans for the future. eeoulathto noaoBAnos. As the United States can not go out of the immigration business, it were well if It should regulate it to the efficient protection of immigrants against transportation swindlers and employment swindlers. -It is of the highest import that Immi grants, and especially those who are un able to speak the American language, should arrive at their ultimate destination with as much money as possible in their possession, and that such of them as are to pass into the condition of hirelings should be quickly employed at the highest rate of wages common to the neighborhood.

This is needful, that the immigrant may neither become a cost to any county, nor be re duced in natural pride by becoming the re cipient of public charity by reason of slow ness In obtaining work, or by acclimatizing sickness, or by any of the incidents that befall a stranger In a strange land; and It Is also needful that unprincipled employers may not avail themselves of his ignorance to keep him la a prolonged condition of poverty, and thereby depress the standard of wages. The Immigrant who lands at Castle Oar den Is now subject to such imposition in rates of Western travel as may reduce hint to a poverty that compels him to accept the lowest pay upon which life can exist when he has traveled as far as his originally scanty purse can carry him. He Is also the prey of designing contractors before he leaves the walls of the old castle. The New York Herald has unearthed a current con tract in words and figures ae follows: NW TORS. 188-h' In consideration of the employment furnished us by Charles T.

TUb systematic engrafting of a depressed peasantry, poor, ignorant, and content to dwell in two rooms, "with wife and chil dren," on Amerioan soil is not worthy of encouragement.

1 The mines "of Pennsylvania have been flooded by cheap foreign labor, and so have some of the Western factories, though whether by the Parsons system does not appear. But It does appear need ful that safeguards should be thrown around the immigrant who Is Judged worthy of admittance to this country. The United States can not afford to be cursed with that superabundance of cheap labor whose ex patriation Is the problem of European gov ernments, OUS EOXE MaBIET. Senator Dawes propounds a riddle to the brilliant theorists who advocate "the markets of the world for America." It Is this: 'How can a Nation that is as yet un able to supply its own market sue- essfolly compete for the control of others? It Is a very simple question, and admits of only one answer such a nation can not successfully compete. The unavoidable fact which stands at the threshold of free-trade fallacy, and pre vents prudent men from entering therein, Is that the only free trade nation worth speaking about was ultra protectionist un til it had obtained power to supply Its own market with goods of its own make, and had also gained power to produce a surplus of home-made goods.

Then it began to cast about for foreign markets in good but it was never fool enough to ask foreigners to supply Its home market with goods which it believed Itself able to grow or make. That Is a latter-day Idiocy peculiar to this side of the water. Whether England acted wisely In seek ing to gain foreign markets by a free-trade policy is questionable. There are thou sands of Englishmen, and they are ever in creasing in number, who believe that free trade will prove to have been fatal and irremedial blunder. Such men are followers of Disraeli, who urged close commercial and political re lotions between England and her colonies and dependencies, and as these contain a fourth of the population of the world and produce all that men need, or Indeed can make use of for all purposes of pleasure or profit, It would seem that Great Britain might have had a- home market which would have taxed her capacities to supply, But, whatever the present or future good or evil of England's free-trade policy may be otoe thing is certain, it was not dreamed of till the home market' proper that of the British Isiea--was thought to be safe against foreign competition.

The nearest market is the best" always was and always will be a sound maxim of finance. Much of our home market is not as near as It might be if water-ways were more fully developed; much of it has yet to be created by new railways' and new de mands for food and clothing and all other needful things, consequent uppn a quick ened industry in the Southern States; more of it has yet to be created by the growth of Western population and trade centers. And some foreign markets can be made to assume the conditions of home market by wise treaties of reciprocity with other nations of the American eon tinent. But the timely riddle of Senator Dawes will provoke much objurgation from American free traders; they will not answer it, they will simply anathematize it. AKE THESE AIT ISSUES? An editorial In a recent number of Frank Leslie's entitled "New Issues at Hand, affords a fair sample of the fripperies of style characterizing the so-called independent papers when they essay a discussion of political Arrayed on neither side of any great question, they set put to show their Independence by "slosh ing around" between the parties, striking out indiscriminately at both sides in the fray.

That's the glorious style of political lndependentlsm! In the editorial referred to it Is assumed that there are no real issues dividing the two great political parties of the country, and Senator Sherman is berated for hold Ing to tho bloody shirt, discussing the disfranchisement of the negro, etc and a great variety of topics Is suggested that ought to be discussed. "Why is itv the editor asks, "that we have no more debates like those of Lincoln and Douglas, dealing with prin clples and vital Ideas, and statesman-like in the best sense, Instead of the tricky bids for votes which we know so well?" In the days when that great debate was going on, the so-called and fault-finders wagged their heads and asked the same questions in "Where fore do you waste time on abstract questions and matters of sentiment?" they "It Is visionary and lmpracticabl to discourse so eloquently about the rights of man. The Constitution fixes the status of the negro, and that can't be It was charged then that the talk of men like Lincoln was demagogy and mere bid ding for votes, Just as our Independent editor charges against John Sherman. The disenxranewsement oi the negro at the South," that section is made solidly Democratic and the 'National will Is defeated, is a matter as vitally, affecting the welfare of the Nation as was the question at Issue between Lincoln and Douglas in 1858, In fact; it Is a part of that same great issue of equal human rights. If the negro is to be kept in a state of permanent dlsfran chlsement, subject to any measure tyrannical legislation the "white mn government" may titan hi w- A elpatlon was a gift of doubtful value.

The fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the Constitution are the garnered fruits of the great national struggle of Lincoln's day; and until they are obeyed in letter and spirit, in all parts of the Nation, there will remain an Issue of immeasurable Importance io all the people; fully as impor tant, in fact, as the issue of the extension of slavery1 into certain territories then free. Whtiji the United States haa only the Paolus, a vessel that would be despised and rejected by picknickers seeking- con veyance to North Evanston, to carry her flag in Chinese seas, China itself has Just added five splendid vessels to its own navy. One of them, a torpedo boat of Scotch build, has steamed twenty-eight miles an hour, and is believed to be the fastest ship afloat. The others, two being of German make, are of nineteen knots speed, and of perfect equipment. And the English, who are Judges in such matters, say.

that the native crews are trim, sober, alert, and clever. There to something wrong about all this. When it comes to private boat-builders the Yankee still "whips all the fastest yachts are American made' and American manned, but when it comes to building for public service the Secretary of the Navy goes to Europe, and even to Japan for models. It can hardly be that there is less native talent available for frigate building than for yacht building. It Is much more probable that the same encouragement offered to frigate building that is given to yacht building would re.

Oub Washington correspondent quotes a remark of one of the President's personal friends to that he now has different ideas of many subjects from those entertained by him when he first entered the White House. Quite likely; and one of them is that he would like to tarry another term. That is evidently the pivotal point on which the other Ideas were turned. His ideas concerning civil service reform have been materially changed since he has been brought into closer relations with the men who run the Democratic machine.
