Lebanon Express. H. Y. KIRKPATRICK, Editor - and - Proprietor. LABOR TJ.N'IOKS VS. CAN BOYS. AMEEI- Phall American boys bo per mitted to learn trades, and, having learned them, shall they be per mitted to work at them? They are apparently simple questions, and the answering of them is an apparently simple matter. Most persons thus interrogated would reply at once: "Certainly tbey should. Why do you ask such tmneceessary 006811008?" We ask them because under the present conditions of trade instruction and employment in this country the American boy has no rights which organised labor is bound to respect. lie w denied instructions as an apprentice, and if he be taught his trade in a trade school, he is refused admission to nearly all the trude unions and is boycotted if he attempts to work as a non-union man. The questions of his charac ter and stall enter into tne matter only to discriminate against him. All the trades unions in the country are controlled by foreign ers, who comprise the great ma- C jority of their members. While iy refuse admission to the trained nerican boy they admit foreigners th little or no regard to their .raminff or skill. In fact, the . doors of organized labor in America, ' which are closed and barred against American boys, swing open, wide and free, to all foreign comers. : Labor in free America is free to all save the sons of Americana. These . &r neither idle nor exaggerated statements. They are sober, solemn truths, expressed with studied moderation. So-called labor to day is a complete misnomer, as far as the trades are concerned. How has it come about that the t'nited States, alone among the nations of theearth.has not merely surrender ed oossession of their field of -mechanical labor to foreigners, but atquiesces whsn the foreign pos- WHsors exclude from that field her own sons? Century. ten Wiuub Mr aw An Americas capitalist, who is a awn observer, is reported to have said that he did not believe that then was an Aueri- i citiien whose income represented a alary who km not living beyond his means. And he added that. II the man had a family, he was bringing np that family to standards and wants that he oonld not honestly gratify. Oar own ob servation does not hear witness to this assertion. But if the alleged fact be true to any considerable extent it most be regarded as among the causes of the many embextlementa and other pecun iary delinquencies which have become so common of lata years. "Flaying the races" has been the nun of a multitude, but living beyond one's mean most bear part of the blame. And it is more serious than is commonly im agined. It involves false pretenses and fraud. It is a mean species of crime, and yet often commuted without any compunction. Men are afraid or ashamed to say, "I cant afford it, and yet an not afraid or ashamed to contract debts which they know that they cannot hon estly pay. Christian Intelligencer.

IS Lot Venae aV Does stats lovs impair rati loverBostos Oloba, We cannot say far sure, bat we goes not, or anyhow not always. Perhaps, in troth, real love and stage love an often of the Bams essence, of like substance, of similar quality, and closely akin to each other. Indeed, for all we can say, the resemblance between them may be marked, or even very marked. Ask the younger Dumas or H. Pierre Loti or Mr. Bobart L. Stevenson or. in cose all those persons have gone out, ask the well in formed Mr. William D. Howells of this place, who rarely ever goes out. except to collect the proceeds of his copyright from the publishers of his novels. W are unable to say whether Professor Helmbolti, the German chemist now m this country, who is a man of analysis and apprehension, oonld throw any light on the subject. Bat we can tell the Bos ton Globe that it is very foolish in put ting its question about stage love and real love to stage lovers and real lovers, as it has vainly done, The question is of the gallipot. Aew York Bun. Lebanon certainly needs a bank badly. Our cranky governor has again "been heard from. It is now in place for Cleveland to tell Pennoyer to attend to his business and he will attend to his. Newspaper editors and printers are not such a bad lot after alL Koad what a valuable exchange says: 'Of the 3890 convicts in the state penitentiaries of Texas, there is not a printer or a news paper man, while there are bank ers, doctors, photographers, min-i.-ters, bar-keepers, cooks, barbers pnA ir.!!!;'K-rf of all other callings und professions. The cog-wheel of justice must have slipped an jccentrie somewhere." A Dsetar WUk Exparlaaaa. One day while mending the roof of ate house Chodja lost his balance, and fall ing to the ground broke a rib. A friend of his went hurriedly for a hakim (doc tor). "Bakim, have you ever fallen bom a roq and broken a rib?" was the first question Ubooja asked the doctor. "Thank God, no," replied the hakim. "Then go away at once, please," cried Clodja. "I want a doctor who has fallen from a roof aad knows what it is!" Good Words. To Advertisers.

What would you do about it? Would you take the pardoning power away from the governor? Statesman. It would certainly be a very good ibitig for honest men, if the present governor had no pardoning power, unless be uses a great deal more discretion in the future than be has in the past.
