"Where is Drake S. T. 1860 X?" We
have heard this question asked many
times, and for all We knew for year past
he might be dead Recently, in New
York, we called at his Laboratory in Lib

barricaded behind a tremendous pile of
boxes, distributing funds to. "a Sunday
School Com mittee. Our business was to
secure an advertisement He said: "My

THE returns of the vote on lay del
egati0n are coming in slowly. The
indications are still favorable to the
success of the plan, though the vote
is so light that the whole affair pre-
sents the appearance Of a huge farce.
We can scarcely express our regret at
the meagerness of the vote. The only
way to do, we suppose, is to assume
that the great majority of the MEM
bership who have said nothing are
| content with the organization of the
/ Church as it Is, and yet are willing
/ that the change should be made for
/ the accommodation of those who are
/ clamorous for it. We give the vote
as far as reported In our bounds, and
summaries of the returns published
in other places. We cannot publish
the vote In all the charges in the
! United States. - Western Christian
! AdU0cdte.
The Indifference manifested by a
large portion of the membership of
the church to so marked change in
its economy, is one of the phenomena
of the day. One would naturally sup
pose that question which has been
agitated so long and discussed so
loudly, would arouse an interest on
the part of the members that would
result in bringing out every vote, and
having the matter definitely settled
once for all. As it is, the light vote
will greatly strengthen the opponents
of the measure when it comes up be-
fore the General Conference for final
settlement. They will insist that the
smallness of the vote is conclusive
that the majority Of the church do moi
. desire any change in its management
, and we are not sure that the proposed
change in the rules will be defeated
/, notwithstanding the seeming majority
in its favor.

We do not fad Greencastle place
that gives promise of material growth,
yet for all that, a pretty little city is
perched upon her seven hills" as
we are told of honored, ancient Rome,

has been permitted to follow. The view

The city, as it is claimed, contains
a population Of 1000. There is a fine
showing Of business, and some manu-
featuring is done. In particular, the
nails turned out by the GreencastIe

any manufacture in the West. Your

We are informed that the demand is
greater by almost one half than the
supply. This speaks volumes.
At q period dating back several
years, a movement was made in edu-

one now in use here. A determined
effort was made by friends of the en-

success. but although no open Oppo-

The lIlN alrrk Mailer.

In the City Clerk imbroglio there j.
matter from which the council, and the
other guardians OF the city's veal, may
draw lesson that may b. OF great benefit
to the public. The defense set up by VT.
Mockler, forunlawfully Issuing licenses 4,
was that other clerks had been guilty OF
the same ofiense-that TO do SO was GUS
tom Of the city. Ifthis defense had pre-
vailed, there would have been an end TO
the authority OF the council. Acquittal
would have opened the floodgates of
corruption Translated into words, n
verdict OF acqdital would have read thus:
"The written law says the clerk shall not
issue licenses without the treasurer's re.
ceipt; custom says he shall. Custom is
more potent than written law and must
prevail With this before them, what
could the council Save done? Nothing.
Their hands would have been tied; and
a new rule, they should have adopted an
ordinance, the act would have been OF
no effect whatever. The officer, or citi.
zen, who might have seen proper 10 dis
regard the law could have done so with
impunlty. When arraigned il would
only have been necessary for him To
have proved that he had followed cus-
tom. This fact shows how necessary II
is TO from upon the first step In an ir.
regular path; IL is also a forclble asser-
ton, that II Is the peremptory duty of the
guardians of the public welfare TO turn
all hayward officers, without delay, out
OF irregular courses, into the smooth path
of lawful procedure. The only way this
can be done Is TO punish those who are
peryerse in wrong doing, as the evidence
proved Mr.. Mockler was; and the great
est punishment that can be inflicted upon
such an officer Is to turn him out of office
The trial OF Mr.. Moekler, and its re-
suits, have been worth thousands of doll
lars TO the city. They have called atten-
ton to leak that must be stopped with
out delay, and they will serve as q warn
ing 10 the future clerks-a warning that
will make them hesitate long before
they even handle any funds they are not
entitled to receive.
The matter is not yet concluded; but
the council cannot refuse 10 IOlloW tuelr
verdict TO its logical result-removal from
office. A majority of all the aldermen
elect, and all but one of the select coun-
cilmen, have said that Mr.. Mockler has
been guilty Of dishonesty, and to hesitate
to remove him would be qualification
extraordinary. That alderman or coun-
Gilman, who has said, under the
solemnity of his oath OF Office, that
Mr.. Mockler is dishonest aud has been an
unfaithfu officer, would astonish the COM
munity, and stultify himself beyond ex-
preston, If he were to now vote, under
iie official oath, to retain him in Office;
and by this vote say, as plainly as words
conld: "Although believe this man
dishonest, aud an unfathful officer yet
/ believe he is a fit man TO hold public
Office, and therefore believe he ought
10 be retained In the Office in which he
was guilty of dishonesty, and in the dis
charge Of the duties Of which he proved
himself unworthy OF public confidence,
