Two Favorites Won. | The bookies had the better of the argu- ment in their controversy with the rail birds, the pikers and the plungers who put up as much as $3 on a race at the Alexan- der Island track yesterday, but two favor- ites winning. Nina was a real comforting good thing, landing the purse at odds of 20 to 1. Jockey Clare was reinstated. Thir- teen bookmakers weighed in, and the track was the best for several days. The win- ners were: Jim McLaughlin, 5 to 1; Cha- teau, even money; Nina, 20 to 1; Johnny, 3 to 1, and Mask, 6 to 5. The Tracks Will Divide Dates. The officials of the Alexander Island course and the St. Asaph’e Junction track have come to a friendly understanding. The Alexander Island track will reopen on the Ist of March, and races will be run for two days. Then the St. Asaph’s people will begin their spring meeting, and there- after the rival tracks will ri on alter- nate days so long as both meetings con- tinue. The C, A. C. Smoker.

F. Hort inquires who is responsible for “injustice,” “brutality,” “indignities,” to which government clerks are subjected. After mentioning as features of clerk service seven to nine hours per day of close work in cramped and changeless po- sition, atmosphere foul from lack of re- newal, and in some instances eyes ruined from use of artificial light, he asserts that broken health, as a consequence of such exactions and conditions, is quite a common thing. He also speaks of a “board of in- vestigation” for these harmful conditions of labor and, likewise, for tyrannical and overbearing treatment by those having im- mediate charge of the clerks—the so-called “chiefs of division.” Of course, these petty officials have noth- ing to do with fixing, and are, therefore, not at all answerable for thé number of hours demanded; nor for the fact that the natural position for clerical work is a cramped one, susceptible of little variation; nor that some of the rooms are so dun- geonlike as to require artificial light for some desks; yet the man who lacks either the judgment or the heart to weigh nicely the question as between justice to the service and humane consideration for the worker should not be trusted with a team of oxen, much less to decide the usage of his fellow beings. As to the bad atmosphere of some of our ill-constructed, ill-ventilated government buildings, he is culpable only to the degree to wnich he has failed to be watchful, to! use constantly all available means to pre- serve its purity; and if he be too ignorant of the laws of hygiene, too unobservant or too selfish to trouble himself on this point of his duty, it yet amounts to a lack of capacity for his post, if not a misdemeanor, too serious in its consequences to others not to be noticed. Furthermore, if a di- vision chief does not see to it that no clerk is compelled to use artificial light while any better arrangement he possible, and that this unrighteous condition does not fall for a great length of time on the sarne individual, who is giving the same amount and quality of labor for only the same pay as his neighbors, on whose capital, 1. e., faculties for work, no such evil tax is laid, he is too destitute of the proper qualifica- ticns for the trust reposed in him to be allowed longer to hold it; for all positions of trust and authority demand both the capacity and the willingness to meet the corresponding duties involved in such. Continuous clerical or any minute work under artificial light is an outrage on na- ture and unjustiliable in any case where the nature of the work itself does not ne- cessitate it. And, then, justice demands that to the usual pay for work under nor- mal conditions, there be added an emolu- ment proportionate to this exceptional in- juriousness of conditions. Will you, in the spirit of “Chief of Division,” reply that if A be not willing to yield his labor plus these extra and unjust inroads cn his fac- ulties for the usual pay, B is waiting out- side to do so? Don’t, unless you are ready to see a great nation, proud, wealthy, able and meralty bound to act on just, broad and best principles, degrade itself by adopt- ing the trade principles of the common marts of sordid, devil-take-the-hindmost traffic. So much for the conditions of clerk labor as enumerated. Now, as to “injustice,” “brutality,” “indignities” to which clerks are subjected: Neither the writer nor any relative was ever employed in a govern- ment department, but as a native-born American citizen, with the love of liberty and hatred to oppression characteristic of true American nature, he would inquire if in any department of the United States government there exists such system or such lack of it as renders the foregoing possible, and that, too, while excluding the possibility of appeal against such abuse. The first is tacitly admitted by “Chief of Division,” who, in The Star of January 15, attempts a retort on complainant, while the last is not only asserted, but quite in a spirit of bravado. “Chief of Division” is much too lordly to condescend to deny that there is injustice, brutality, indignity, but with ready facility grandly assures the complainant that those above the merely clerical position—those who have in hand the usage of their fel- lowmen—know no amenability. Above them, then, is no other court nor judgment seat than high heaven. According to him, “no chief of office is in the least liable to be called upon to answer for what Mr. Hort alludes to;” and, as we all know, these allusions included the three expressions of tyranny above named. ‘Now, Americans would like to know whether it be really true that a man of the nature evidenced by “Chief of Divi- sion’s” reply is, within a “considerable latitude,” allowed the exercise of such nature on those, who, forced by exigencies to work under him, are yet absolutely without avenue of appeal against him. We can scarcely believe it, and would like to be informed. “Chief of Division” should at least be informed that there is, how- ever in his narrow ignorance he may scoff at it, a final court of appeal, that can both now and hereafter crush such as hold his spirit. It is the court of public sentiment nd action. S “Chief of Division” should be taught that he, as much ts any clerk, is but the hum- ble, paid hireling of these same American citizens; tha they are his masters and the court cf last resort; the “superior officers,” not alone of such midges as he, but of the “heads of departmert,” yea, of the Presi- dent himself, who can, by them, through their agents, be ordered impeached; even as he himself can, if need be, call to account any cabinet officer too careless, too lazy, too impatient of annoyance to look into preaches, however small, of the bulwark principle of Americanism. I have heard that Carl Schurz, native- born subject of cld-world despotism as he was, was yet too conscientious and liberty loving not to guard against oppression in his department; ard while Secretary of the Interior instituted a sort of bureau of com- plaints, or at least set apart a time for hearing them. Do you say that this would open up a Pandora's box of bickerings? I do not believe it. In compelling care that no cause should be given, there would be far less evil done than would ensue from a reckless preferring of complaints that could A WOMAN’S BURDENS are lightened when she turns to the right predict The chroniena See Siete lerangement infu! ers afflict her as are ered by Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.

Why does not some statesman anxious for a fad ride this hobby on the “winter national race course” on Capitol Hill? The defense of the defenseless, the champion- ship of liberty and rights in their smallest breach, is worthy the lance and tilt of any knight patriot. If the guardians of liberty think there have occurred no breaches,they can learn from sources rot to be gainsaid how-ecme of these “subs” have, with a ceaseless ingenuity and a refinement of cruelty, hazed defenseless women who they imagined failed in due court to them, or against whom some toadying favorite chose to tel] tales—how some of these have been irsulted with the coarsest invective; addressed with the rudest want of man- rers in the presence of others; kept under artificial Wight for mcnths and months when other arrangements could easily have been made, and until eyes were being perma- nently injured. It is impossible that for these evils there is no remedy. S. J.
