THE Omaha Herald advises Demo
crats to trust the President , and the
Brooklyn Eagle suggests that the Pres
ident should reciprocate and trust the
Democratic party. That is impossible.
The party's record is against it.
BRADSTREET estimates the loss by
the late labor troubles at $80,000,000.
But the train of difficulties thus set in
motion will , in a twelve-month , doubt
less result in a far greater loss , judging
from the effects so far , without securing
any real advantage to labor.
THERE is no doubt that eight hours
is enough for most people to work , on
the score of comfort and from the side
of disposition. But there is another
question involved : Will eight hours
bring money enough for the adequate
support of those dependent upon the
workers ? The answer to this depends
upon the condition of the labor mar
ket the amount of work to be done ,
the number who are available to do it ,
and the profits of those who employ it.
It is not , therefore , a matter for arbi
trary settlement. Everything depends
upon the factors in the problem. In
some occupations and places , and at
some times , eight hours is enough. In
others they are not. Boston Herald.
LONG before Americans get done with
the anarchists the latter will find there
is a Very general idea in this country
that one flag is enough , and fellows who
don't like it can leave without plunging
any community into mourning. The
American people are not selfish. They
welcome the foreign-born citizen who
desires a home , when he comes with
American ideas. But when he comes
with the idea of revolution , and of over
turning and destroying that which has
cost the Nation priceless treasure to es
tablish , he will everywhere be met by
an opposition which will strike with an
arm strengthened by the law , and made
strong by patriotism. If anarchists were
able to muster to their aid all the off
scourings of European nationalities ,
Americans and Americanized citizens
who have found homes here would unite
and wipe" them from the face of the
earth before one fold of .the old flag ,
the stars and stripes , should trail in the
dust. It will be just as well for all so
cialists and anarchists to remember
these facts. Inter Ocean.
THE level-headed Johnson County
Journal gives the whole snap away
when it says : 'Newspapers in the west
are instituted for three specific purpos
es : first , to make money for the owners ;
second , to furnish an advertising medium
for the business men of the town ; third ,
to proclaim to the world the advantages
of a place and adjacent country.
THE democrats of the house have de
vised an ingenious plan for helping the
Mormons out of their corner without
stultifying the brave utterances in Mr.
Cleveland's first message. They have
introduced a constitutional amendment ,
prohibiting polygamy in the territories ,
a measure about as useful as a consti
tutional amendment prohibiting horse
stealing in the District of Columbia.
This is to take the place of the Ed
munds bill sent down from the senate.
It will take a couple of years to send
around this amedment for the decision
of all the state legislatures , two-thirds
of which must ratify before it becomes
a part of the organic law. During that
time they will conciliate the Mormons
and gain time. It is a particularly
bright dodge. Journal.
A KNOT OF BLUE.
( FOR THE HOYS OF VALE. )
( THE CENTURY Bric-u-Brac. )
She hath no gems of luster bright
To sparkle in her hair ;
Xo need hath she of borrowed light
To make her beauty fair.
Upon her shining locks alioat
Arc daises wet with dew.
And peeping from her lissome throat
A little knot of blue.
A dainty knot of blue ,
A ribbon blithe of hue ,
It nils my dreams with sunny gleams.
That little knot of blue.
I met her down the shadowed lane
Beneath the apple-tree ,
The balmy blossoms fell like rain
Upon my love and me ;
And what I said or what I did
That morn I never knew ,
Hut to my breast there came and hid
A little knot of blue.
A little knot of blue ,
A love-knot strong and true.
'Twill hold my heart till life shall part ,
That little knot of blue.

Ax Eastern journal says : "Dakota is
determined to get in. " Certainly she
is. In the language of a Texas states
man , "What are we here for ? ' ' Dakota
has a right inside , and the people will , at
the first opportunity , remove the little ,
pestiferous and narrow-minded so-called
statesmen , and give Dakota a broad and
hearty welcome to the sisterhood of
States. She has now the right of State
hood , as every honest man knows , and
the men are narrow between the eyes
who stand in her way , animated only by
prejudice and revenge because she don't
vote their ticket.
