His sons are so numerous in politics and his daughters so innumerable from the kitchen to the attic of the American domestic establishment that one wonders where they began and is lost in computation of the problem where they will end.

What armies come from that little island of the shamrock What wealth of brain and muscle it turns out for the rest of the world! What chemistry is it that gives this ounce of leaven the power to leaven the lump of the universe? As the JUDGE has said, Ireland cannot be a nation because its people are needed to do the fighting and the ruling of the more important portions of the glabe. CHICAGO AND THE FAIR. Various comments on the loss of the world’s fair to this ing of Chicago's abstraction, said, “I am not You see all we could get out of it was more You don’t suppose the companies would divide More cars would be run and the city filled with country drivers, and when the fair was over wages would be squeezed by the supply.” A mechanic said the centennial at Philadelphia w: That city was crowded with outside help that stranded there, and for a long while there were two clamoring for the place one man could fill. ‘The hotel managers speak of the loss of the fair without regret. No more could be sheltered than the regular quota, and the regular guests would demur at the incon- venience and displacement for the hotel's temporary advantage. New structures, erected to meet the expected demand, would be afterward left as empty and hungry competitors to divide legiti- mate patronage. The great transportation companies are really the only losers. Ni wonderful crowds from the ast can, even with excursion rates, well afford the expense of travel and sojourn a thou- sand miles west. The fair at Chicago will of necessity, as did the ex- position at Philadelphia, have to draw on its immediate contributive territory for its patronage. The great west. proud of the prairie city, will “give it every possible visitor, and Chicago will do its utter- most to welcome and repay its guests. Having won the prize it strove for, its pride will not permit any such word as “fail.” The whole country confidently expects that the enterprise will be worthy of the marvelous ity. Situated unlike New York, the impetus of travel will carry with it a perma- nent trend, The commerce that feeds New York comes to it through hedged ways of bluff and river-bed that can reach the sea by no easier way. Chicago is an open competitor of the western cities and is sitting on the edge of the vastest of plains and on the margin of a saltless Mediterranean where no geographical barriers coerce the currents of trade. For this reason Chicago can wisely venture the investment and discount its profits for the future. Furthermore, Chicago has proportionately a large absorbing power for labor. Manhattan island is but the west side n ferry with half a million of passengers annually, who largely have but little more than their ticket-money until their scant resources are re-enforced by new earnings. It is difficult, in fact almost impossible, to stimulate the surplus labor of New York to seek a we ‘The expectation of liber employment will possibly be an inducement for an exodus, and when onc: THERE ARE A caredriver, sp sorry the fair has gone west. city, work for the same pay. with us a lesson, , Solomon.

While ‘ninety-three is not as near the Columbian anniversary as “ninety-tw that year would unquestionably be historically com- memorative in character. “The whole country hopes and expects that the commemoration will be worthy of the occasion.
