A WISE PRECEDENT. ‘Announcement was made in Chicago yesterday of an ployed in the Joliet mills of the Ilinois Stee] Company. At the South Chicago mills it was given out that the in- crease would probably be made in all departments. President Buffington explains that it is “in recognition of the advanced cost of living.” This is a good reason. It recognizes actual condi- tions. The unquestioned authority of Dun's Review re- cently estimated the increased cost of the leading items of living expenses in this country since 1896 at °6 per cent, Unless there has been a corresponding increase in wages the workman is actually poorer as the result of the country’s prosperity. Tf this is true of the steel business it is equally true of the coal business, If the steel worker has to pay more for the cost of living the coal miner has also to pay more. If it is justice to the steel worker to increase ‘his wages it is injustice to the coal miner to refuse him fan equal increase. But the coal railroad presidents not only refuse the increase, but even refuse to discuss the question of an increase. Any doubt that they are in the wrong is removed by the action of the Illinois steel cor- poration. Whe Union Hill Water Oure.—There is no objection to the ‘use of the water cure as it was tried yesterday by the Union Hill (N.J.) fire department on the mob of West Hoboken Anarchists who attempted to repeat the Paterson performance. If there is anything the average Anarchist hates worse than the law it is a bath, and he will flee trom a@ hose faster than from a club. A’ PRECARIOUS SECURITY. A down-grade movement on the Stock Exchange yes- terday was greatly accelerated by an artfully circulated rumor that J. Pierpont Morgan was not feeling well. The vigorous response of the great financier when he heard of the rumor reassured Wall street and dispelled its alarm. Mr. Morgan {s a healthy, able-bodied cltizen. His massive proportions command the admiration of all England when he is arrayed in court costume, but still he is mortal. He fs liable to attacks of illness, and it is painful to think of the disturbance of values that would be created if he should really fall ill. There ought to be some way of insuring his health, and also of insuring the steadiness of the large line of securities which begin to tremble and shrink at a mere rumor that there is anything the matter with him. From Force of Habit.—It js painful to note that while all was harmony within the Tilden Club last night, the out- side Democrats of the South and West kept up their old- time habit of throwing bricks at Mr. Cleveland OUR SWEET OIRL GRADUATES. It is more than a generation ago that Oliver Wendell increase of 10 per cent. in the wages of workmen em-;/ TH > JOKES OF OUR OWN WAYS OF PROVIDENCE. ‘The apple which our parents took To earth condemned their fate Tho green ones ittle Johnny mrged To heaven sent him straight o GOODNESS; MY NEW DRESS Holmes, then approaching middle age and sadly remem-| ; bering the charmers of his youth, asked in plaintive | 4 tones: “Where are the Marys, the Anns, the Elizas, Loving and loved as of yore?” If they are not dead they are certainly out of fashion, and there is good authority for the saying that it Is bet- ter to be dead than to be out of fashion, For example, we should expect in the Norma! College a moro dignified nomenclature than in ordinary schools, but in its list of girl graduates we fail to find a single Mary or Ann or Eliza or Jane or Susan, There is Marie and Madelon and Marjorie and Sadie and Susanne and Millicent and Evelyn aud Rosaline, and, of course, there is Gladys and even Janice; but the homely, old-fashioned names have entirely disappeared, “Thus the old order changeth, yielding place to ne An Unsetiled Question.—Out of a total of 452 Senators and Representatives in Washington 238, or a little more than ‘alf, are college graduates. Now does thin settle the juestion whether the colleges are a good thing for the country or not? OUR HARD CHOICE IN BACLOD, When our military authorities in the Philippines of- fered to the Moslem of Jolo and Mindanao full protec- tion for thelr peculiar institutions, including polygamy, @ great many people doubted how far such a guarantee could go. The American conscience does take Kindly to the toleration of polygamy But it now appears that even this concession to| heathenjsm is not enough. ‘The Suitan of Baclod, in the ; big island of Mindanao, has answered to the kindly overtures of our Major Baldwin by telling him to go ‘way back and sit down, He says, “We do not want you in this country unless you will join our religion and adopt our customs,” Refusal means war. This is a hard choice to put up to a gallant army officer who 1s probably a married man and a church member, If he does not accept the religion of Mahomet and proclaim his belief in polygamy he will have to make war on the sultans and datoes, who are numerous in these parts. Fortunately a three-company battalion of regulars is more than a match for the whole standing army of the average sultan in Mindanao, and we may soon expect to hear of the Sultan of Baciod cooling his heels in prison or else apologizing for his rudeness to Major Baldwin “SUBS” FOR KING EDWARD, The British are patching up a broken-down King in the hope of having him in fairly presentable shape for Coronation Day, Physicians have prescribed rest for him, and they are flooding his system with tonics and Shrowing all sorts of pharmaceutical bracers into his Wetund but collapsing frame.
