furious and pathetic scene There was a wild confusion of glasses j and bottles pipes and as if the table even itself were drunk Some eight or ten poor miserable hangers on of the were grouped for their nightly in common parlance regular old bummers with I heir pulled cheeks and bleared eyes and faces blazoned I with vicious heraldry Presently a 1 dingy side door opened and in jed a bright blue-eyed little girl scarcely four ears old She ran be- hind the counter where her father was just answering the call for u drinks all As soon as he seated himself j Posey that was what they called her capered about his feet clambered into his lap kissed his groat burly face toyed with his unkempt bristly hair She would dart away in answer to some beck or call from one of the com- pany fur little a pet every one of these poor deluded tims of Once they too were innocent children as blithe and as i less as she at one- scene changed had inaugurated a Obedient tu her summons of them had

there was i a series of and counter nut with soldier like pre- it is true but with implicit at- to orders And now the cle is formed again and the order comes from your little and suiting the action to the words her own little mites of hands are placed in reverent attitude of de- votion This was a grain too much for big Jake and he was about to slip out of the ring but eager entreaty prevailed and he it like a repeating with all the rest the little Kindergarten prayer after the tiny child teacher word for Father thank thee for the And for the pleasant morning For rest and food and loving care And all that makes the day so fair Help us to do the things we should To be to others kind and good In all we do in worker play To grow more loving every day In old days there were angels who came and took men by the hand and led them away from the city of de- struction We see no white-winged angels now but yet men are led away from threatening destruction a hand is put in theirs which leads them forth gently towards a calm and bright so that they look no more backward and the hand may be a little child's It is not likely that any other evangelist however consecrated could have turned a cor- ner grocery into a even for a brief interval Little eyed Posey did it It was a blossom from the Golden Gate Kindergarten To Taxpayers of Huron In sorrow and pain no pathy for myself I appear before you with a recital of the must wretched and brazen transaction that it was ever my misfortune to witness Last Saturday night the artesian well bids were opened and read before the council by the clerk The several bids were as follows for a six-inch well feet Artesian Co M W 10 Swan P 1 Snedigar J ray 1 The echo of the last syllable of the reading had scarcely died away than up jumped lion L S that the job be awarded to dray Bros Seconded at once by lion Robinson A perfect between the two could not have produced greater neatness and despatch The mayor in putting the motion wisely cautioned the council against hasty action in letting the contract hut to give the subject due deliberation which three of the council were disposed to do and insisted upon Mr still clamored for immediate tion course we were out of the race our bid being next to the highest L tried to insist on recognition of the lower bids and for my pains was ly insulted by my worthy representative of the ward Mr who most cowardly choked off discussion of other bids than the highest claiming nobody could down a good well but dray Uros right in face of the fact that other bidders guaranteed a satisfactory job or no pay Mr Kobinson said Swan's well threw sand and that another bidder the est did not persona ly put down wells himself and therefore his bid was not good In short none of the bidders were lit persons to put down wells but their clients dray Uros to whom they seemed attached by some secret and mystic tie They fairly gushed the praises of dray Uros really on them certainly the Bros are indebted in gratitude to their ar- dent champions The scheme went through by one and the highest bidder got the job members outside the scarcely knowing its suddenly put through With such a result was there ever a greater farce and travesty on decency to say no worse than this advertising for months for lowest bids and then the very highest utterly ing to entertain lower and better bids from parties offering safeguards to the city and to receive no pay until the work was perfectly done to the tion of all concerned Every reasonable objection was met and every offer possible made except the otter of corruption on our part J have frequently wondered why there was so little competition in the well business in the James Valley but I no longer kept a monopoly by this kind of work To the credit of Bartlett Harrison and Fayant be it said they voted squarely against this outrage And the mayor seemed to he outside the snare so deftly wound about the Knights of the highest bidder Fellow citizens of

timely article in the April Century on Arbitration in which he One of the most tory cases of conciliation and tration in America was the settlement of a serious strike in the Philadelphia shoe trade in 1884 This was ar- ranged by Hon J M Washburn with some co-operation of the Peace Union About daily wages was involved and what proved to be a cold winter was before the working people The settlement saved with ail the peace and comfort hoalth and morals involved Not the least of the advantages gained was the formulation of eleven rules with notes on the same The value of these rules and notes is shown by their having since settled several strikes in other trades and other States They were posted up in tories and the workmen by way of pleasantry came to call them The Eleven Commandments They were- furthermore made the basis of ad- justment of a serious trouble in one of the largest institutions of learning in the Might Sow Call Polities arn barred iu this said James G
