G. STEINER. VICE PRESIDENT NEW LIFE IN OLD EUROPE. A Few of the Views of John Swtoton Daring His Becent Toar Abroad. [8pecial Correspondence. 1 In the course of my year's roaming over several countries of Europe since November last I got some views of life and other things there that few Ameri can sightseers are ever likelyto look for. It is safe to say that most of oar tourists, after spending a short time abroad, see ing France, Italy, Germany or England, are apt to tell us of the Eiffel tower and other glittering shows in Paris, or of the Coliseum and other wonderful relics in Borne, or of Windsor Castle and other massive fabrics in London. Now I, too, when in Europe saw all these things, beside hundreds of others not less attractive or less suggestive, yet shall say nothing about them here. Bat while abroad and going to one country after another, from the Mediter ranean to the North sea, I also took oc casion to stady a few of the new feat ares and ideas of the times that were even more interesting to me than those things with which all American tourists in Europe are familiar. I took views and made studies of the life of the peo ple, common and uncommon, from the upper world to the under world, from the foreground to the background. I surveyed the surface and sounded the depths from Italy to Scotland. What, then, did I learn there? What did I see in Italy, France, Switzerland, England and Scotland? Many things beside those that the New York papers had told me of—novel shows, surprising sights, doleful scenes, hopeful signs. Here, at this time, I shall refer only to the thing which struck me most, and that was the evidence of resurgent life now to be found among the masses of all the countries through which I wan dered in search of that life for myself. New ideas are in the air there, new movements are advancing, and the way is being prepared for social and indus trial changes that will surely promote the welfare of the working millions. I found this resurgent life even in old Italy, ay, in Rome, the seven hilled capital of the Caesars, the popes and the new rulers of the modern realm. I found it in the festering quarters of the city and among the castaways, as well as in the higher quarters and among their denizens, with many of whom I held intercourse. I saw it in popular assem blages, in the workshops' of the toilers, in a hundred projects of which I became aware, and in the papers of liberation. I heard ideas that surprised me, and predictions or aspirations that seemed beyond realization in our times. I be came convinced, after three months of residence and research in Rome, that the progressive spirit now appearing among the masses there must yet yield fruit unlike any that has ever grown in the soil of old Italy. That which I found in Rome I found afterward in the other Italian cities along my course. In France I found the resurgent life from Paris to Marseilles. The "social question" is up there, as it has been for a century past, and the peasantry of the rural communes as well as the prole tariat of the cities are becoming famil iar with it. I feel it safe to say after thrice visiting France that the French working masses will not forever tolerate a system under which they do not enjoy their natural rights. What do they want? They want the inheritance that belongs to them and the full measure of the earnings of their work. In England, as in the other countries here spoken of, I took timo to survey the ways of life and study the currents of thought among people of all social grades. I found that the English mind is advancing ill a hopeful way. There is a spirit of inquiry in regard to that condition of society which is fraught with evils and dangers that cannot be overlooked, and with which neither benevolence nor legislation has yet been able to cope. I found that the thinkers are perplexed over it, that the workers are giving thought to it, and that even the squalid hordes of London and other cities are beginning to take heed of it and to have their own way of thinking about it. There are unprecedented dem onstrations in England of the power of the working classes, who have gigantic organizations and unite in vast strikes that are often successful. It appeared to me as though they were laying the foundations of anew social and indus trial order there, upon the broad princi ples of equity, amity and democracy. I saw that magnificent demonstration of the working people of London in Hyde Park, on the first Sunday of last May, when half a million of them stood in solid array and boldly displayed their principles and their power. It was truly an impressive array of the hosts of the dis inherited and the reports of the speeches that I could not hear, but afterward read, gave ample proof that the speak ers, who had been chosen from their own ranks, were not backward in proclaim ing the demands of labor. These de mands, which were welcomed with ac clamations by the enthusiastic yet order ly multitudes, were not of a violent or impracticable character, but were of a kind that sounded a warning to the dom inating class in England. In Scotland I found the resurgent life even more vigorous than elsewhere but I have not room to tell what I learned of it I did not go to Germany, but while in Italy last spring I heard the news that the workingmen's party of Germany had then polled a million and a half votes in the elections and had electcd nearly forty of their candidates to the reichstag. I have no doubt that the action of the young German emperor in favoring the rights of labor this year has had a very powerful influence in creating that new interest in the social question which is now to be found among all classes in every country of Europe. The echoes of this voice from the throne have been heard around the world. New York City. JOHN SWIHTOK.
