RACE PREJUDICES. Thoughts Suggested by Recent Disturbances in an Ohio Town. o Another serious outbreak of race prejudice is reported from Ohio. New Richmond, a town of 8,000 inhabitants in Clermont County, has about 700 white school-children to 300 black. After the repeal of the ‘‘black laws'’ two years ago, and the consequent throwing open of the public schools of the State to children of both races on equal terms, the negroes of New Richmond were persuaded to have their children kept in separate rooms, and thus virtually allow the old line of distinction to be maintained. But one negro, James Ringold, decided to insist upon his rights, and sent his children into a room occupied by white e¢hildren. The little negroes were abused and made miserable in every way, and finally Ringold appealed to the courts to protect him and them, suing the superintendent of schools and thirteen prominent citizens for $5,000 damages. The Circuit Court decided in his favor, giving him one cent and costs.: This showed the negroes generally that they could legally send their childrén into the rooms occupied by white children, and they did so on Friday. Great excitement resulted, and so much disgust 'was expressed that the school board closed the schools for the remaining three months of the school year, as' the only way out of the difficulty. The situation is thus described in a dispatch to the Times: ‘“This has been one of the most exs citing Sundays the place has ever known. The streets have been crowded all day. All other topics were forgotten. Ministers counseled forbearance, and wise heads attempted to calm the 'impetuous. Each side professes to fear violence from. the other. All ths teachers. will sue for their salaries for the remainder of the term, and costly litigation, if nothing else, is sure to follow. There is a prospect that a mandamus will be asked for in the morning to compel the school board to reopen the schools.” ‘ : These outbreaks of o prejudice in Ohio, for the New Richmond incident is only the latest ‘in a long series, may well be associated with the alarm now felt by the intelligent and well-to-do white citizens of Topeka, Kan., lest their city shall. be bankrupted by the votes of the poor and ignorant negroes, who flocked thither a few years ago, and, with the unanimous protest of the whole Republican press last winter against the proposed admission of New Mexieo as a State, because of the ignoraunce of the white inhabitants of that Territory—ignorance not so dense nor witlespread as that which prevails among the blacks in Southern States. All these incidents serve to illuminate the Southern problem, and they ought to show the most partisan the need of charity. Hereafter, when we hear of some abuse of a’ Southern negro by a Southern white, let us recall how negro children have bgen treated by whites in more than one Ohio town; when we find Southern whites complaining that the unrestricted rule of the blacks would involve the community in financial ruin; let us think of Topeka’s complaint; when we are told by Southern Democrats that the control of a Southern State by its majority of ignorant blacks would be intolerable, let us remember that the ‘Republican party of the North refused to allow “the majority of ignorant whites in New Mexico a share in the government of the Union because such on idea was intolerable.—-N. Y. Post. |

NOTE THE DIFFERENCE.

Civil-Service Reform as Practiced by Re- . : i former Ben Harrison. When President Cleveland had been less than a month ‘in office, ‘the question of appointing General Pearson’s successor in the New York postmastership was very pressing, and it was soon announced that Postmaster Pearson had been reappointed to that important Federal office. Commenting on this angouncement in its issue of April 1, I 1885, the New York Tribunesaid: The reappointment of Postmaster Pearson gives general satisfaction to those citizens who care for efficiency in that branch of the public service here. It satisfies the public, beeause it is a good thing in Itself; because Mr. Pearson is one of many Republican officials who have proved so consypicuously fit that their removal, on whatever ground, and irrespective of the personal merit of any who may be selected in their stead,would be a positive detriment to the public service. Such an appointment is, of course, to be commended most heartily as a good thing in itself * * % lln itself this appointment 18 admirable * #* * Mr. Pearson’s unquestioned and superior fitness renders his retention in office the clear duty of a Pres dent ' ‘who means to improve and not to degrade the public service. : : . President Cleveland was a Democrat, and Mr. Pearson never made any disguise of the fact that he was a Republican. The Tribune is right, however, in saying that his ¢ superior fitness”’ had never been questioned, and - tor that reason, caring mainly for ‘the efficiency of the service, Mr. Cleveland retained him in the office which he had filled to the satisfaction of Democrats and Republicans alike. Before Mr. Harrison had been a month in office, Postmaster Pearson’s term expired, and the question of his suc-. cessor again became a pressing one. Nobody pretends tnat after four years - of additional experience Postmaster Pearson’s *‘ superior fitness” had be- . come less unquestioned thdn in 1885, but the Tribune said not a word in| regard to his superior fitness, or his efficiency, or the general satisfaction' he had given to those citizens who care’ for efficiency in that branch of the public service; and President Harrison, . ignoring all the reasons for the appointment that had proved strong enough to convince President Cleve- - land, has.just given the ‘postmaster- ~ 'ship to Mr. Cornelius Van Cott, a man ~ who has had no experience whatever ~ in the mail service, whohas no record . of efficiendy and superior fitness, and - who had no advantage over General __ Pearson in the matter of Ropublican- ~ fem, oxcept that he is more ‘accepti«% >’ s G . men.

Nothing is quite so ridiculous as the proposition to endow a chair of protection at Yale college, consider.it from any stand-point whatever. Political economy, if taught at all, should be taught with some regard for scientific truth, as is shown when geology or biology is explained to the students.There can not be two theories of any science, directly antagonistic and equally true. ¢Protection” is not a science, at best it is a makeshift, a piece of empiricism in thought and charlatanism in application. To endow a chair to teach ‘‘Protection’ is simply to set up the favorite device of the Middle Ages, in contrast with the latest conclusions of scientific investigation. ‘ ' : If we are to have a chair ‘of *Protection,’” let us have also a chair of Astrology to counteract the evil effect of scientiffc astronomy; a chair of Alchemy as an antidote for the evil influence of the teaching of modern chemistry; then let Yale send for Rev. Jasper, of Richmond, Va., to deliver a series of lectures in the support of his belief that the ‘‘earth do move.”’ The Minneapolis Tribune thinks both sides of the question should be presented. So we suppose it would have the Reverend Bob Ingersoll lecture to the divinity school on the mistakes of Moses. —Louisville Courier-Journal.

Dullness and Consent.

’ The proprietors of the Brooks loco-motive-works of Dunkirk, N. Y., one of ’ the largest establishments of the kind in the country, have dismissed some three ‘hundred mechanics ‘‘on account of dullness.”’ It was Mr. Blaine who informed the journeymen mechanics of this country that their wages or their employment could be reduced only by their own consent. Upon this Blaine theory the dullness on account of which the Dunkirk mechanics were dismissed must have been caused by their consent! Or, peradventure, in the lexicon of protectionism, ¢‘dullness’' and ‘‘consent” are words of the same meaning. But a more difficult case t 0 explain is that of the jack-spinners of Cohoes, N. Y., whose wages were recently reduced ten per cent. without their knowledge until pay-day arrived. According to Blaine it could have been done only by their consent, but as, when they discovered the fact, they resolved to strike; the Blaine theory and the fact do not seem to.agree. Is it “s 0 much the worse for the fact?” adßtoes Qs oil e

FARM AND FIRESIDE.

—¢Breed from the best” is a good rule for poultry-keepers, as well as for breeders of the large domestic animals. —A pretty fancy in marking linen is to have the wearer's favorite flower worked in ,with the embroidered inW Y

—Crops would suffer less from many a noxious insect or animal and its progeny were it not for the shelter of the hedge or of the rubbish in the fenceTOW.

—Skim-milk and corn meal mzil;e a splendid ration, but the meal or milk may be used in excessive quantities in the combination. If a larger amount of either is used than the animal can assimilate it will be lost.—Swineherd.

—As farming is in one sense a continueus round of sowing, cultivating, reaping, just as the year is everspring, summer, fall and winter, and yet who ever saw two seasons alike, or the cultivating of the soil that ought to have been the same? We must study our work if we are going to make a success of it.

—The work of inducing farmers to discard common stock, and grade up by the use of pure bred males, has been in progress for half a century or more, and yet the farms are filled with common stock. It is satisfactory to progressive farmers that they have improved, however, and they do not resort to the inferior kinds.

—-Pork baked with apple: Cut a pound of salt pork in thin slices and freshen in cold water brought to aboil. Take two tart apples, -an onion, and half a dozen potatoes; pare them all and slice. Mix all together with the pork in a baking tin, season with black pepper, add water to bagely cover, and bake for two hours.

—Asparagus soup: Two quarts &f good soup stocks, thirty large asparagus stalks, two tablespoonfuls of butter, one of flour, pepper and salt to taste. Cut off the heads of the asparagus and cook until tender, masg them through a sieve and put int the soup kettle, add the butter and flour, let boil slowly for five minutes, pour into the soup tureen, add the asparagus heads and serve. —-It is better to plow in the manure for potatoes deeper than the seed is to be put, and to scatter phesphate in the drill before dropping the seed. There is not any danger of the phosphate injuring the seed, even when it is used at the rate of a ton to the acre. Few farmers use one-half and not many more than one-quarter that amount. The profitable amount to use, will depend very much upon the character of the soil, and something also depends upon the composition of the fertilizer.

—The seasgn for putting away furs is near at hand, and as they should always be packed away clean, a description of the process of cleaning such garments in Russia, the country of furs, is interesting. A foreign scientific journal tells that some rye flour is put inte a pot and heated upon a stove with constant stirring, as long as the hand can bear the heat. The flour is then spread over the fur and rubbed into it. After this the fur is brushed with a very clean brush, or, better, is gently beaten till all the flour is removed. ' The fur thus resumes its natural lustre and appears as if new. -

POULTRY DISEASES. . Tuberculosis in Fowls and the' Havoc Wrought by the Affliction, Has it ever occurred to the readers of this paper, or more particularly to those who are in the poultry business, that perhaps quite a mumber of fowls dying may be afflicted with consumption? I have no doubt a great many fowls in this country die yearly from the above disease. I have, in several instances in the last year or so, found unmistakable evidence of the disease in several fowls purchased at the grocery for table use. i Very frequently have I heard farmers complain of their chickens dropping off, and they can not account for it, only they ‘‘suppose they have the cholera.” Might we not as well presume it was tuberculosis? At present literature is somewhatlimited on avian tuberculosis; although writers have from time to time, in the past, given descriptions of isolated cases of the disease. It was impossible for some time to tell whether the disease was genuine tuberculosis or not. But after the bacillus was discovered by Koch, which gave pathologists some criterion to go by, the genuineness of the disease was soon discovered.

A well-known writerin England, who has given the disease in fowls quite a bit of study, says: “A farmer having lost a large number of fowls in a short time, requested him to examine into the c¢ause, giving him permission to use theremaining fowls in any way he saw fit to fully acquaint himself with the disease, and he soon found out the true cause, and the disease to be tuberculogis. In this time he had been furnished with a great number of fowls from other poultry-yards throughout England, and found the disease to be widely spread.

It seems, too, that the disease ditfers very much from most known forms of tnberculosis, in that the lesions peculiar to the disease (tubercular deposits) are mostly found in the alimentary canal and the associate viscera, which are the parts most exclusively atfected. Writers who have. inquired into the disease have been struck by the myriads of bacilli present in birds so affected, and those who have cultivated the bacillus are unanimous in the opinion that it thrives best at a temperature varying from 387 degrees C. to 39 degrees, the average temperature of fowls being about 40 degrees C., and this increase of temperature over that of man may explain the luxuriant growth of the bacills, 4

The writef further on says: *I feel confident, if due .attention be directed to this disease in various parts of the world, it will stand a good chance of being included in the diseases communicated to man from the lower animals. The list of fatal cases of tuberculosis occurring in man, appalling though it be, is small compared to the relative mort.a.leizy from this disease among the grain-eting members of the feathered tribe.”’—Cor. Cincinnati Commercial

Something You Should Know.

Many of our readers have often asked ‘“What is Bright’s disease of the Kidneys, about which we hear so much?”’ To answer their question we have secured the following explanatory article, written by a competent authority:

One of the worst physical scourges of the world to-day—notably in England, Germany, America and Australia—is Kidney Disease. An alarmingly large proportion of the population of the countries named is affticted with it, in one form or another.

The symptoms of Bright’s Disease (which is butan advanced form of Kidney Disease) differ in different, individuals, but generally the patient presents a flabby, bloodless look, is drowsy and easily fatigued, has pain in the back, vomiting and febrile disturbanee. Dropsy, varying in degree from slight puffiness of the face toan accumulation of the fluid sufficient to distend the whole body and to occasion serious embarrassment to respiration, is a very common accompaniment. The urine is reduced in quantity, is often of dark, smoky or bloody color, and exhibits to chemical reaction the presence of a large amount of* albumen, while underthe microscope blood corpuscles and casts are found. Very often dimness of vision, due to a morbid condition of the retina of the eye, and also hypertrophy of the heart, leading to fatal apoplexy, are accompaniments ot the disease.

There are several forms of the malady, but their common prominent characteristtc is the presence of albumen in the urine, and frequently also the co-existence of dropsy. These associated symptoms, in. connection with Kidney Disease were first described in 1827 by Dr. Richard Bright, an English physician, who first investigated them. Sometimes there is a degeneration of the tissues of the kidneys into fat, thus impairing the excreting powers of the organ so that the urea is not sufficiently separated from the blood. The flow of the blood, when charged with this urea, is retarded through the minute vessels, congestion ensues, and exudation of albumen and fibrin is the result. The disease is often accompanied by eruptions on the skin, as boils, etc., and is frequently associated with enlargement of the heart.

. The causes of this terrible malady are, indulgerce intoo much ice-water as a beverage, strong drink, high living, indigestion, exposure to wet and cold, various kinds of fevers, malaria, pregnancy, and other bodily derangements, such as a complication of certain acute diseases, like erysipelas, diphtheria, and especially scarlet fever(of which it is one of the most frequent and serious after effects), diseases of bones and other scrofulous affections. The kidneys being the most important excretory organs of the body, their derangement may speedily destroy life. Common-sense treatment of Kidney Dissase of the character referred to necessarily involves removal of the causes, rectification of other secretions and increase in the number “of blood-red corpuscles,by the administration of Warner’s Safe Cure. Itis a specific even in the- advanced stages, when the blood has poisoned the nerve centers, restoring the secretion of healthy fluids and relieving the congestion of the brain. It speedily arrests the inflammatory action, which is marked by an increased amount, of urine. The albumen gradually disappears, the dropsy subsides and the patient recovers. There is no standstill in advanced Kidney Disease; those who are afflicted with it are either constantly growIng better or worse. How important, therefore, that this terrible disease be taken in hand in time and treated with a known specific. . .
