was made at the last annual meeting

Buccesi of the fair here is assured upon

the state , while Omaha is at the edge.
The ease of access to Hastings from

railrolds come into the city from- five

Here are1'two drShreo significant
facts , takeBa from.outdjsp t Aif pf ,
.the Jast week , to which wewhbrto call
'attention . of'American * workingmen - '
" * * *
men and-women :
1. During the last six days thirteen
large steamshipsJiaveJ.eft the Mersey
for North American port ? , loadedr is I'.ti
emigrants , nearly all of whom-are , ,
bound ; for the United States ; , The"
number is unprecedented. '
2. During the list month the tide
of emigration has increased to an un
exampled extent at this season of the'
year , noWnly fr9msIreland-butjGer- '
marly , England , and the Scandinavian'
nations. Most of the .emigrant's from ;
every eaun'try but Ireland are reported
to be pecoaniw , skilled workThgmen ,
or servants. ' . f
3. The | demand for thiaolorelgn
labor is still graater than the supply.
The superintendent at Castle garden
has ; hundreds of applScatiqns for
women se'rvants jn .advance . of their
arrival. Swedish , " Danish , 'and
French - , jwomen are preferred ,
bscauso "they are 'skillful , re
spectful and neat , or , in other
'wordsv because , .having taken up do-
mentic service as men do a trade , ' they
carry into it the qualities which en
able them to succeed. Good , homes
and 'liberal .wages are waiting for
them. Now every American city and
village is "full , on the * one hand , of
housekeepers who want such servants ,
and of American girls , shrewd , nim
ble-fingered , and intelligent , who
either prefer to starve at spme other
work , or if they go' to service scorn
to make 'themselves either skillful ,
neat or respcctf uL
There ia a fact for the consideration
of our working women ; now for" the
working men.
4. Applications are sent in , far be
yond the supply of emigrants to fill ,
for mechanics of every grade , carpen
ters , weavers , gardeners , workers in
eveiy kind of metal , etc. As our read
ers know , bodies of skilled workmen
have been imported during the last six
months by ourhianufacturing firms by
the hundreds , to so large an extent as
to close many of the mills in England.
Yet every American town and village
is crowded with idle boys and young
men ; not idle tf their own choice , but
etekicg vainly to find work as book-
kojpers , clerks , or perhaps starving
as briefless lawyers and patientless
doctors. Co-nfort and a competence
await the foreign mechanic , while the
American of the same class goes
hungry. The principal cause of this
is that our trades a generation ago
closed their doors on apprentices in
order to keep down competition.
The owner of the largest printing
establishment in Philadelphia tried in
vain , a few years ago , to find ad-
misaidh for his son as an apprentice
in his own establishment. The same
r'gor has been observed in almost
every trade. While , however , they
can keep their own and their neigh
bor's sons out , they cannot exclude
the foreign mechanic , who , as we
have shown , is coming by the hun
dreds and the thousands to step quiet
ly into' the comfortable places from
which imrnwn people are shut out.
It is time that o r working people
should waken to tfc ] jy of this sui
cidal policy It is all very well for
.us to boast-viirt America offers a refuge
for the oppressed of every nation. She
has .done it in the pat and long will
continue to do it. But i is hardly
consistent with such a character of
universal benevolence that her own
children should be the only one's for
bidden to earn their bread in the
manner which seems best of them.

Greatest Discovery of the Age.
WonaerfiiTdlacoverlesta the world have been Dude
Amon4 other things where Santo Clan * rtayedi
Children oft ask U he makes goods or not ,
If really he lives in a mountain of snow.
Last year an excursion sailed clear to the Pol *
And suddenly dropped Into what seemed like ahola
Where wonder of wonders they found anowland ,
While fairy-like beings appeared on each hand.
There were mountains like ours , with more
beautiful srtea ,
And far brighter sklea than ever were seen ,
Birds with the hoes ct a rainbow were found ,
While flowers of exqultite fragrance were grow
- inj ? around.
Not long were they left to wondar in doubt ,
A being soon came the/ had heard much about ,
Twas Santa Clans' self and .th lltfcey all sayr
Be looked like the picture w cweerenr day.
'
He drove np a'team that looked Terrqneer , "
Twas a team f frrasshoppers instead of reindeer ,
Be rode in a eh ell instead of'a Blelxh ,
But he 'took them on boird aid drcrre them
away.
He showed them all uver his wonderful realm ,
And factories making goods for women and men ,
Furriers were working on hats great and small.
To Bunco's tbev said they were sending them * " .
Kris Kingle , the Glove Maker , told them at once ,
'All oar Gloves we are sending to Bunce , '
Santa showed them suspenders and many things
more.
Saying I also took these to tiland Baaca's itow. ,
Santa Claus then whispered a secret he'd tell.
As In O'taha every one knew Bonce well , '
np therefore should send his goods to his care ,
Knowing liis frie < ds will get their lull share.
