It is very evident from Mr. Chandler's plain and unmistakable language that he believes therepublican ofli cials whose duty it is to in forre the present immigra tion law have been bribed by this Steamship Co. to neg lect their sworn duties, and that he thinks some promi nent Washington correspon dents are in the same boat. The speech haseaued a great sensation i n Washington, and that class of newspaper correspondents entirely too numerous w h o m a V e a pra e tice of piecing themselves un der obligation for favors re ceived from nuy who choose to offer them are highly in dignant; but all the same it is a fact that no correspon dent is apt to write disagree able things, even though he knows them tobetrue.Hbout those he is under obligations to. That speech hits a rood many of them in a tender spot, and it hurts.

Thes men are only playing 'I spy' with their consciences and you enn fin 1 them every time. They are no more genirne infi lels than a news boy is an editor They only retail somebody else's ideas. They are striv ing ntrninst their natures, as the model farmer vv'iowas of the opinion th it his beans were coming up wrong end foretrost. Hod knows bent, and he has rot made n fail ure of the race. Then again, boys, take alool? around you when you invest another fif ty cents in liberty, and com pare the crowd with the kin' of people you find in almost any church. It is the odor of sanctity you smell. Hard ly, boys, hardly. Bntyoucan eat peanuts there and choke on the shells, while you ap plaud the funny jokes about the heavens where you know in your hearts you hope your mother is, or hear the humble Nazarine ridiculed, who, you think and always will think, gave a home to our weary old father when he left the earth.

You know when the first steamer crossed the Atlantic a great philosopher was delivering a most conclusive argument to prove that by no possibility could a steam vessel cros the ocean. And he proved if too, and no man on Id an swer it, either, and that pro voking steamer came snort ing, sizzling and splurging right into harbor. "Boys, so will God's chil dren go light on prayingand preaching and dying and f.o ing to heaven, in spite of ar gument. They can't help it. They were made so, I sup pose.' lie Gi nen.us While Hive. I have felt that it is a great mistake to put off being gen erous till after you are dead. In the first place you lose the pleasure - witnessing the gocd that you may do, and, again, no one can administer your gifts for you as well as you can do it yourself. It is great pleasure to be brought into personal relations o f that kind, and to make peo ple feel that you are not a philanthropist theabstract. hut that you are interested in them personally and care for their welfare. In that way you benefit them not only In a natural way, but. vou make Uiem reel that men re real ly brothers, and that they were made to help one anoth er. That feeling is not only agreeable in it,:eif, but will he apt to prompt them to carry out the principle themselves. Put yourself into all you do, and let others feel that yon are there. Do not. only con tribute to a charitable fund, but go yourself and help. It may seem inconvenient at rirxt, but soon you will come to consider it worth any in convenience. G. W. Chil ls.

Perhaps no greater shame can come upon a man than that of bring u drunken fath er. Boys, whatever .vo ir life may have been, don't marry to biM-ome a drunken father. It Is beastly and outrageous. It deserves more horrid things than con tempt. Where the father isadruakard ihere is no domestic tranquility, no happy home, no permanent peace. The light of joy may flicker r the soul for a min ute, but it goes out, and the home is d, irk, miserable and gloamy. From the outside world there may cornea sooth ing influence; the in -mtes may leel now and then the warm pulse-throbs of t h e more fortunate portion of hu manity, but these impres- sions can not last. The drun ken father comes to cloud the hour of joy. The wife a n d children must be subjected to his abuse and live in shame before the world. Noth ing but the final hour can blot out the blackened past and give relkf. Only a few days ago we beheld with dis gust a drunken fat her travel ing on a train in company with a little son. The poor little boy wu at the mercy of a wretch who had him a way from home and whose delight it was to tantalize and abase him. When the train stopped the unnatural father dragged the boy out of the car. It was a cold day and the little fellow stood shivering beside the track, many mi!:s nway from home and without an overcoat. The little innocent boy could do nothing although his face was indicative of embarrass ment and distress. The fatli "r, whose brain and affectioti had been seized by the de mon of drink, would takethe boy by the shoulders and roughly whirl him around ia a proeesft of intradueb'g him to the by standers. The man with a heart would hurt wiiii indignation at such it sight. What hardships the i )ooi b iy v u ffereo d u ; i n g t hat day, who can tell? A grown person itfay bear up uty'er many a word of-abuse. I Je has been hardened tolife'Ltri als, but the littlechild, whope heart is young and tender, is not isiicivptihle of rough treat meat. The Klitfhtest word of abuse sometimes ra:'ks one's heart with pain and teaches him to hate home and even life itself. For words said in reproof of wrong there is some excuse, but let the' harsh sound grate on theear of an innocent child and there' comes a pang to the heart that w 11 linger as longasth breath of li'e. If you are a sober boy and a sober man you ill be a so ber father, ami your home will be one of happiness and peace. Boys, with the begin ning of this r.ew year, think of the life before you and start, out on lines of sobriety. You will be better,- happier, and wiser, and no shadows will ever come to darken the' peaceful future. R&rOnedoikiT pajs for thd Democrat one year.
