Summing the several divisions of govern ment olllcials and employes wo find 217,130 Individuals ( males ) In the United States pub lic service. They are distributed as follows : Constr"1 ! !

If wo deduct the number of congressmen rand 30 per cent of the men In other govern ment places , who are estimated to bo above 35 and under 21 years of ago , we have nn aggregate of 1G1.9D5 young men whoso ages range from 21 to 35. Of these 37,354 are eoldlors , enlisted sailors , naval nnd revenue marines , and have the monthly pay ot their enlistment , varying from $13 to $100 , the latter being the amount that the highest "general servlco cleric" receives. Not reck oning the number of officials who have each a yearly salary below $ GOO and above $2,400 , wo estimate 110,000 young men who are re ceiving from $ . " 0 to $150 per month , and who nro according to the verdict of public opinion holding godd positions. They have gener ally a fair social status. They nro received Jn the community and honored ns represen tatives ot a great nnd good government. The majority of the places which they hold nro filled by civil service examinations or by promotions from grade to grade ns * vacan cies occur from death , resignation or re moval. Wo rojolco at these sanguine state ments. The government that wo love needs young men who are Belf-respectlng , honest , capable. Let such bo found nnd encouraged to outer the service of Columbia ! Why not ? Objecting critics , nnd I fear some of them nro not free from envy with perhaps a grain of malice admixed , cry out with a alight ehrug of the shoulders , "Soft places ! " "Soft things ! " "Too many workorsi" "Too much salary for the business ! " They go on often to nfllrm that not one-third of the numerous public functionaries earn the money which they receive. How full of such bitterness Bomo hearts are ! Perhaps overwork In newspaper staff chairs has made these critics dyspeptic. You may bo sure that the following Is the true- general proposition , to-wlt : The United States employe , including ftio soldier nnd the Bailer , does well earn his salary. DEVOTED TO THEIR DUTIES. Olanco at the great postofllco which ex tends from Washington to the extremities of our vast domain. The busy workers on ships , on stages , on railroad cars , on the streets , everywhere among the people , stn- iiuuuij ur HIUVIIIB , nro never Kilo. From the general postoinco to Its various branches In the states nnd territories , In the cities , vil lages , hamlets and road corners , there they nro , this vast multltudo of young men , full of health and vigor , as regular In their work ns the tides of the ocean , as constant as the fitara. wholly devoted to the business In hand ! There Is no want ot skill ; no want of force ; no confusion. How can wo have better servants of the many sovereigns of this republic , better laborers for the weal and comfort of all the Inhabitants of the land ? Are these really young men- Yes , certainly , wo are Bpcaklng of young mon. In all the depart ments of the government glvo us young men. When wo select them rightly , of the right build , of proper endowments , they excel , for In thorn nro the stroncth and on- orgy. Wo do not forgot the public demand for mon of sufficient ago and abundant ox. porlenco In public olllco. Some such belong to the courts of law. to the council chain. JJors , to the senate , to the treasury and to llut , as Intimated , In every apportion ment where public labor Is to bo performed , In order to secure the best results glvo us plenty ot the strength and energy of our Koldon youth. These views are almost too plain to warrant a statement of them. This ' however , Is 'tho government side of the matter ; or rather It Is the sldo ot the Boverelgn , the people , the employers , whoso lilgh and Important Interests nro under con sideration. SUflE THINGS. How Is the case with the Individual young man ? A youth who Is Just emerging from his school life Is pondering his future. He Is socking something for n livelihood. Ho naturally wants what ho hears called "a euro thing. " The government clerkships nt Washington with a compensation of $100 per month arrest his attention. Ho finds a vacancy. Ho tiubmlts to nn examination , passes satisfactorily and receives his ap pointment ; though perhaps not one In twenty such applicants got an far na the ap pointment. Next the successful young man moves to Washington , and enters full of vigor and hope upon the duties asnigncd him. His tasks are not hard nnd for a tlmo his salary is ample ; for It meets nil his wants , and as health continues ho la perhaps laving a llttla for future use , In process ot time , however , our young clerk bo- eomcs restless , probably from the rery monotony of his labors. As Is natural a wife comes to share his means , and his living expenses are greater. Ily the itrlctust economy. It the wife bo without fortune , they manage their household , but children come and the needs Increase. Ho now strives for promotion , but promotion floes not como nt his bidding. With reluct ance ho permits himself to anticipate his monthly allowance. Ho Is obliged to bor row iiml pay Interest , Oh , why go on ? The itory Is too common. Speculation gives hope , but teen speculation proves but a mirage. That , llko gambling , will end In ruin. The result Is Inevitable. The young Jian with a growing family U forced to leave the public scrrlca nnd go where ho can gain n nnp'iort for himself nn-J those who arc dependent on him. Many an en- terprlslnR youth has just at this juncture of his career abandoned the crippling con ditions which have thus far enslaved him , nml Rene forth to make n strong , success ful , Independent citizen putting himself nbreflRt of the first In the land. The cnso Is not an exaggeration. Many , even more distressing have come under my own observation , In many public places there Is absolutely no variety to the work , very llttlo Intrinsic Interest nnd , of course , no chnncoa for development. The pay for the labor done Is enough. It Is worth no more. The clerk on coming to the capital has entered a now society ; new clothing , new wants and a hundred unforeseen demands nre exacted. It Is soon apparent to him that those who supply his needa liavn pre cisely adjusted their bills to his receipts , or perhaps pushed out a llttlo In advance of them. A STIUKINO PARALLEL. How different It Is with his nchool com- rndo who parted with him nt graduation nnd found nn opening as nn errand hey In New York and assumed the other duty or privilege of sweeping out the office. Ho went In there nt the bottom of the ladder- but he has been steadily rising until ho Is now ahead of his at first seemingly more fortunate friend. Why ? Decause rising was In the original contract rising accord ing to merit. Ho has never rested too long on his oars. Ho has attracted the attention of the business heads , who wanted Important errands uuleltly nnd honestly done , or Ills clean and early sweeping , giving n whole- ( loino nlr to a business place , has suggested clean ways and clean conscience. All things being equal the Now York friend , who started humbly , has In n few short years gene up the stops of Industry and Integrity to n business success. As ho has thus risen In private life , ho 1ms found variety Instead of monotony ; pushing Into each now place for which the preceding fitted him , ho has acquired moro and more force for the work of life. The thought of the first was "Give mo n safe thing , " while thn't of tlio second has been : "Start mo nnywhero where 'there Is an open way In any honorable business where there Is a future.1 Notice other effects. Observing a number of young men who have been ton years In government clerkships , U seems ns If In the most of them , the fire of ambition had been quenched. They now go on llko the steady horse In the dally harness. If I were young again , I would week the moro fearless free dom of civil pursuits , rather than the mo notonous , stifling' restraint of any government servlco. It may not bo amiss to glvo n word of counsel to any government young man who may glance nt this writing , rnther than finish by such discouraging views as the above. There Is after all a largo variety In the choice of government positions. Ills * lory , geography , scientific researches , as tronomy , engineering , seamanship , chem istry , In fact many un art and science find Its place In the government records nnd work. Lot the young man already In the harness fit himself according to his task for some sort ot promotion , whether ho gets that promotion or not. How can ho ? By putting In his leisure momenta to better his body , his mind , his spirit. If ho nttnln genuine health , strength , energy and fitness ho may somehow sooner or later como to the thing ho merits , for ho will bo wanted. Such men nro sought after. There Is ono more thought , which I think commends Itself to every young man beginning life , whether In the government service or outside of It , but moro especially to him who has a small salary with llttlo hope of promotion. It la what lies In the result of extraordinary well-doing. It may bo better Illustrated by a story which Hov. William M. Taylor gave his pcoplo at a social meeting. STORY WITH A MORAL. A Scottish lord on ono occasion was enter taining a distinguished friend at dinner. Whllo the two were sitting at the table the guest noticed nn unusual amount ot silver ware on the table nnd on the sideboard. It was alt bright and beautiful , and seemed to the observer of unusual fineness and value. "How Is this , my lord , when did you obtain all this silver ? " "Oh , " he replied , "It Is our plate , but Its singular brightness Is duo to my butler. " Ho then led his guest to the pantry to show him his treasures thero. Just then the butler came In nnd was Introduced. The distinguished visitor spoke to him kindly nnd Inquired With a show ot Interest what was the secret of such extraordinary neatness nnd order. The butler , coloring , said : "I will toll you , sir. the secret. Lately I was led to become a loyal subject of the Great Master , and , as I wanted to please Him , It occurred to mo to try to do my ovcry-day work better than I had dona be fore. " This fervid speech of the butler and his modest manner affected the visitor so much that ho was led to personal rellectlons. Ho soon after gave his own allegiance to the Great Master. When the famous Spurgeon through him heard of this conduct of the reformed butler ho sent to Scotland for him nnd persuaded him to como to London ns his helper. The butler then became famous for his effective Christian labors , under the supervision of his new friend and pastor. The young man's lesson In epigram Is this : Do dally work over bolter , that H may show loyalty to Him who controls the fountain of good. OLIVER O. HOWARD , Major General , U. S. A. MVSIUAI AND DHAMATIC. Mmc. Albanl has started on n concert tour through Germany. Augustln Daly has secured the rights for the United States nnd England of four now German dramas by Sadermann nnd Fulda. The death Is announced of M. Eugene Nus , at the ago of 77. Ho was part author of "Miss Mutton. " Charles Walcot Russell has written a one- act drama which ho has Christened "John Drew , Gentleman. " Augustln Daly Is now giving Wednesday matinees In order to accommodate the de mand to see "Twelfth Night" at his theater In London. During his Pacific coast tour James 0'Nolll contemplates presentlne a new play called "Napoleon. " written for him by A. H. Haven , author of "Josephine. " Rose Cochlan has arranged to play her annual engagements In Now York at the Fifth Avenue theater. Her present tour omls In May. when she goes to Europe In search of new plays for next season. At a Now Jersey theater recently the man who blow up tlio steamboat In "Tho Fast Mall" overdid the business. The explosion shook the surrounding buildings for several blocks , and the concussion extinguished all the lights In the theater , nearly causing n panic In the audience. Clara Morris la having very great success In the south In spite of the hard times. In Now Orleans the Academy of Music held largo and fashionable audiences at every per formance , the receipts being the largest of the season. Now York society has furnished the stage with ono ot Its hnndsojnest women ; who has assumed the stage naino of Ada Marie Vnl- leau. Miss Vnlloau appeared as liarbara Ilolton at the Academy of Music In "In Old Kentucky" last week , and the press gave her credit for talent. Mr. nnd Mrs. Kendal have arranged to make another tour of the United States next season under the management of Daniel Frohman. Duslnuss at the London Lyceum has been BO brisk nnd their American trip lias been so successful that another season In this country offers better advantages to them financially than to remain nt homo , Mllo. do Lussan appeared throe times be fore the queen of Great Britain last year. Two weeks after she appeared before her majesty In the "Daughter ot the Regiment" she received the command to sing again In "Carmen. " The company were too far north to bo transferred to Windsor In time for the performance , and Mile , do Lussan sang with other performers. When she returned to her own company they saluted her as "Tho Queen's Own. " and the sobriquet has clung to her over alnco , Whllo at Balmoral the Princess Beatrice placed her own bed room at her disposal as a dressing room , for the castle has not sufficient guest accommoda tions for so largo a company as the Carl Rosa. Many rare nnd beautiful gifts , " In cluding a diamond bracelet , the tributes of royal favor , adorn the pretty boudoir of the singer , but a writer In the Sketch , who recently visited her , found her the same , natural , unaffected "Zollo" us when shn sang before her American audiences , loyal to her country , llko all true Americana , and unspoiled by her success.

TWO CLASSES WITH DIFFERENT AIMS Construct Ionian Jliiy Ha Krnnnnod with , hut Djnunilti- Throwers 'Mint lln llrntrnlnud of I'rrneiit Social Con- < lltlons 11 1'lnln Duty. The recent dynamlto outrages In Paris , London nnd other Kuropcan cltlds were a few day.s ago the subject of conversation In n group of Omaha business men , during the course of which the question was raised , "What Is nn anarchist ? " It was suggested tlmt nn answer bo sought from Hev. Dr. Duryca , and ho replied ns follows : "Tlio word anarchist signifies ono who de sires to see the established order of society In his country entirely destroyed. Ho con ceives It to bo unjust , hates It , nnd there fore wishes It to perluh. "Tho term first became familiar ( I think ) In connection with two classes of persons In Russia. Doth classes regarded the consti tution of government ns designed to favor the prerogatives of the royal family nnd the privileges of the nobility , whllo using the people , without regard to their welfare , ns material nnd tools for the aggrandisement of these aristocratic classes. CONSTUUCT1VU ANARCHISTS. 'The first class of anarchists are these who purpose to uao the peaceful means to obtain n change of tliu social system. They wish freedom to speak and write. They In tend to dhow the Injustice of the system nnd appeal to the Judgment of their people In behult of n system devised for the com mon good. They may bo called construc tive. It Is known to them that the do- * structlon of the present system would not sccuro the welfare of the people. It must bo followed by the construction of a better system. Hcncu people must bo convinced that the present system Is bad and pre sented with another which can be com mended ns good. They would prefer n sys tem like our own In some particulars , yet with certain modifications In the direction of socialism. They would differ as to the extent of those modifications. The moder ate would like to see the state own and op erate many enterprises which are now left to private management , The radicals would like to see what they call nationalism , the state owning land nnd all the native re sources of the caith , and organizing the people In a general Industrial system for the production and distribution of the neces saries , conveniences and comforts of life. DYNAMITE FLINOEHS. "Tho second class Is composed of the de structive anarchists. They contemplate the wrongs they endure or think they endure , and get excited until the wrath becomes madness. They are then ready to strike nt these who ( as they think ) have an undue - duo advantage from the present system. They seem to bo revengeful. The trouble Is that they have no knowledge and wisdom which might enable them to offer n better system In place of the present. Hence they are called destructive. "Tho persons who are properly called an archists belong to the second class. They throw dynamite. It Is their aim to terror ize society. They are morally Insane. Surely this must bo so. "A man Is Insane when ho proclaims an object , and then deliberately goes to work to prevent the accomplishment of It. The destructlvo anarchist would tell you. when ho Is calm and able to reason , that ho wishes to better his condition , and then ho will go and illng ; dynamlto nnd get his head cut off. Ho deliberately faces this catastrophe. Ho may think ho Is bettering his condition by dying. But a wholly rational man would conclude that ho could attain his end more comfortably by chloroforming himself. "Tho reasonable man who thinks the or ganization o society unjust should bo reasoned with. But the man who is besldo himself should be placed where he can not fling explosives about. ANARCHISTS IN AMERICA. 'There have been and are anarchists of both classes In this country. The first clasa believe In agitation. They would convince all men that the present system Is so de fective nnd partial to a few that It ought to bo changed and made to conserve the In terests of all. They do not propose to use foul means. They will stand with all good citizens for law and order. "The violent , cranky anarchists are few comparatively among us. Some -of them have been driven out of other countries. Some of them have suffered peculiar hard ships In this country. Some of them are of unsound mind on every subject , and , when Interested In political matters , reveal their crankiness In now ways. "Whllo wo understand that our present system Is n growth and has come to us after the mental nnd physical toll of genera tions , yet wo must concede that It Is not perfect , and keep It open for revision and Improvement. It certainly does enable some men to become too rich and forces many men to become too poor , for Its own health nnd stability. "Ourplain duty Is to modify It so that the greatest good to the greatest number' maybe bo achieved. This surely has always been the principle underlying all our Institu tions and our attachment to them. This world and this land do not exist for the minority. Wo have decided that uotn snail bo used at least for the benefit of the majority , until wo can find and employ the measures which will cause them to bo used for all , and for all nllko and equally. "This does not mean n dead level of con dition. That cannot bo obtained for genera tions to come. So long as men differ In themselves they will differ In condition. Hut there surely can bo n bettor division of the fruits of labor , so that every ono may have what ho Is capable of using wisely nnd able to enjoy In view of his special susceptibility of enjoyment. " ODD llAirMOAl ) STATISTICS. The fastest long distance run over known was on the Now York Central In 1831 , 435 miles In 125 minutes. In eleven principal western states the building of 26,000 miles of railroad line caused the settlement of 03,500,000 acres of farming land.
