H?L The hearts of the bankers of tho National
HHp Association now in session at Pittsburg must
ff bave'boon touched by the appeal of Proal-
HBi' dent Xiooax O. Mcsiuy yesterday.
IBtp Mr. Mubbat drew a pathetio pleturo of the
HR deplorable condition of tho banker as com-
); Tpared with that of the workingman. Labor-
& ere. Beys President Mcbbat, received 91 a

HWl'MoeiTO an average of 92, and with that can

ER J How is it with the banker t Alas I he
H& '"'gets a lower rate of interdst for his money "
Kp '&ow than he got in the good old times, "his
HHrot living is mon expensive, his wants are in-
Bt OTeasing, the demands upon him for charities
H(& greater, and his happiness is not aug-
Bf-i Stented in a relativo proportion."
Hjf Unhappy banker! But there is consola-
K;, tion in knowing that at any moment ho can
K abandon his institution and take to honest

THE BAEEE8' TEBEIBLE BETEHQE.
E;' Disgusted with the law's delay in duly
Br punishing the policemen for the Union
Hp Bqnare outrage, the Executive Committee of
Kfr Bakers' Union No. 1 have decided to take
V$- matters in their own hands and score a
HEa terrible and unprecedented revenge. They
K Itave sternly resolved " to extend no more
HKV favors to policemen when they seek refuge in
HNL the bake-shops on cold nights."
Hk No longer will the bluecoats be able to
Hy; regale themselves with the succulent mid-
K night bun. No longer can they warm thorn-
H selves before the furnaces and literally
K sample the doughnuts piping hot from tho
K& simmering caldron. No longer will the
HHp takers pass them a friendly tip at the ap-
Hj proachof the roundsmen. The entenU cor.
B. Mate is broken. Indeed, any baker who sur-
K? xoptitiously commits these hospitable acts
Hf. 'Will be fined If 25 by tho union.

Tho BtaU Constitution provides that every

Tho caso of tho Swedish woman, J cm, de

Lady Bbasszt, whoso death and burial at
sea from her favorite yaoht Sunbeam is re
ported, was an admirablo typo of English
woman. She boro a world-wide repute as a
yachtswoman, adventurous and intrepid,
treading unknown seas and remote arohi
pelagoes with the spirit of a seventeenth cen
tury navigator.
But in phrasing due tribute to Lady Bras
sey.let us not forgot tho great army of woman
pioneers, unknown to fame but equally de
serving it. Voyaging in a magnificent yacht
with pilots and sailing masters and all tho
luxuries that wealth affords even upon the
sea involves a small measure of the hardi
hood and courage required uf the mothers,
the sisters and the daughters who for a cen
tury or more havo been invading tho track
less wildernesses of our Western domain,
helping to redeem deserts and making them
" bloom like the Garden of tho Sun." Thou
sands of these noble women are still per
forming their hardy and adventurous rOlo
upon the far Western frontier. The heroines
I of this world are for the most part unhouored
and unsung.
ABB1TBATE THE BTBIKE8.
Two strikes, involving a large number of
printers and brass-workers, aro in progTeBs
in this city. The points at issue should not
result iu long and costly struggles. Only
extreme grievances justify a desperato con
test. Prompt and reasonable concessions on
both sides would be vastly better than inev
itable loss for all conoerned, with a victory
that might be radical, but would probably.be
only temporary.
Meanwhile tho Stato Board of Arbitration
is " awaiting developments." It ought to be
assisting developments. Thero is altogether
too much passivity and incompetenco about
thU Board. Let it do something and justify
its existence.
PEOPLE AOADIBT POLITIOIAHB.
The people of New York want good gov
ernment. It is not to their interest that pub
Ho moneys should be wasted, criminals escape
punishment and the judicial ermine bo soiled.
They are injured when corrupt and vonal
men are sent to the Stato Legislature and ig
norance and dishonesty hold control of tho
Board of Aldermen.
When the people, with considerable una
nimity, coll for the nomination of particular
candidates for office, it is fair proof that the
men they favor are to bo trusted. The popu
lar demand for Mr. Mabttns for Judge of
Sessions and Mr. Nicoll, for District-Attorney
points them out as the fittest persons for
those important positions. If a fow political
leaders who control tho nominating conven.
tiona do not want them, it is because they de
sire to elect men not more valuable to tho
people, but more useful to themsolves.

" ruler" ofjthis'coantry. Wo have no "rulor "

HOHEBT LABOB.
The Knights of Labor in their General
Assembly have rejected a resolution of sym.
pathy with tho condemned Anarchists. This
is a wise proceeding. Honost labor is natu
rally conservative. It seeks all the time to
bettor its condition! to lay up a oompetenoy
for a family I to secure a homo and coJort-
able surroundings! to educate its children
and fit them for honorable and prosperous
careors. How, thou, can tho true Knights of
Labor have any sympathy with those who
would overthrow law and order and render
the competency of tho workingman as inso
oure as the wealth of tho millionaire f
Tho United Labor party is strong in this
State because it dlsolalmed all association
with the Socialists and rofused to recognize
thorn in its nomination of candidates. Labor
is tho bulwark of thi Republic t anarchy is

FRESHMEN WITH CANES.
Columbia Sophomores Meek n Lambs
Would a Illsh Hot House Them t
For the first time in tho history of Colum
bia Collogo every Freshmau was allowed to
carry a cane unmolested to-day. Horetoforo
such an act would have inBtautly invited a
fierce attack by the Sophomores.
To-day the Freshmen, having previously
notified the Sophomores of their intention,
all presented themselves with enormous
canes. The largest sticks were carried by
the slimmest youths. They went boldly to tho
check room, aud Curtiss, of '91, presented
tho challenging cane to be checked. Meun
whilo '01 made tho college ring with " '91
wants blood." No Sophomore offered to grab
the cano as it was passed over the counter,
and it still remains in chock under the name
of Curtiss totheclory of '91.
The inaction in the Sophomores ia due to
tho resolution passed by them last week by a
voto of twenty .threo to twenty, not be the
attacking party in any cane-rush. But how
much provocation they can stand after so
close a voto has not been determined. It is
thought by some that a Freshman with a high
hat would bring on a pitched battle.
The President commends the action of the
Sophomores. The fact that Snowden was bo
injured in the rush last year that he subse
quently died, hod its influence.

New I'lnns for the Exhibition.
SPECIAL CABLE TO TUE EVEHIHO WOBLD
London, Oct. is. Many prominent Italians,
both In England and Italy, have taken an Interest
In the American Exhibition at Earl's Court. While
It Is not likely that the Italian Government will of
ficially recognize the exhibition, they certainly ap
prove of the scheme and will probably further It
by lending certain public collections ot work of
art. A novel and Interesting entertainment Is
contemplated for the Wild West arena by way of
a display of ancient and modern Italian sports,
and It Is probable that on the ground now occu
pied by ino Indian village will be erected an old
Italian street, representing various Btyles of Italian
design. The enterprise Is being promoted by
Americana.

GRAPES ARE CHEAP THIS YEAR.
The Yield I-orae nnd the QuaUty of the Fruit
Excellent.
Tho grape harvest iu the Hudson River
Valley is at white heat these pleasant October
dayB. Every grape-grower in the valley is in
a fever of dread lest the frost spoil his crop.
Last year the harvest was late and tho frost
early, and as a consequence much damage
was done. One Hudson Itiver grower lost
$8,000 worth of grapes by one uight's frost.
The best of Concords can be bought of
street dealers around Washington Market for
threo and a half cents a pound. Gntawbas
aro a triflo higher. Malagas are worth 15 cents.
Vi'holesnlo dealers are unablo to estitnato tho
size of this year's crop. The quantity of
grapes sent to this city by both cars and
steamboats is simply enormous.
The best ond cheapest way to buy grapes is
by the basket. Tho purchaser should not
fail to tilt tho basket on end to inspect tho
quality of the grapes. In this way there is
no danger of buying green or mildewed
fruit.
Good Concords rarely fall below three
cents iu price. Late in the season, when tho
harvest is over, the price ruus up as high as
eight and ten cents. For tho next two weeks
prices probably will remain at 2Ji or 3
cents,, with unimportant fluctuations. Asa
rule, the Hudson Itiver grapes aro in excel
lent condition.
