1t is a singular feature in a government of
the people that there is so little sympathy
shown by the government Tor the people.
Fines, taxes, exclusion and restrictions OF
every sort seem to mark the relations be-
tween the government and the people who
maintain it by their sweat and blood.
What autocrat controlling the destlnies
of 300 900 people, located OH the banks of a
river whose waters are with difficulty ex-
cluded from the city. would take the
delivery of that water in monopoly, and
refuse to give one cup of cold water without
payment! Visit any other city and you
will find public fountains, public pumps at
the street corners; in some, public baths
and lavatOries are provided. The authOrl-
ties which govern these cities know that
city is built up by industry, not by capital.
They know that it rents, food and fuel are
cheap, population will seek the city; II these
elements are dear, people will abandon or
avoid the city.
The city government OF New orleans
having now exclusive control OF the Mlssls-
sippi water. should open drinking fountains
in all the most pOpulOus thorOughfares.
This wOHld promote health and comfort,
and tend to attach the people to an author
ity which must perform the ungraclous
task of collecting the taxes imposed by law
upon the citizens. Let us have faucet and
cup to each pillar of the fountain, that our
thirsty people may not only admire the
taste which projected the temple, but thank
the authorities which have opened it to
popular use.
The woman question is solved to our
perfect satisfaction when we see one of the
and bring to bear in fitting herself for its
pursuit the energy and perseverance which
mark a mans efforts in the same direction.
If ambitious and gifted with capacity she
may attain high station-such as will Ell
able her to command and receive the same
compensation as a male competitor, thus
virtually becoming his equal.
The eminent fitness of woman for the pro-
fession of teaching is generally acknOwl-
edged, and many are taking positions i'll
the front rank OF this calling. Among the
more recent and NEST promising acquisi-
lions to this field of labor is Miss Hattie N
Morris, of Illinois, who has been engaged
to conduct series of teachers institutes in
this State. The executive of the State
Board of Education visited the North with
the intention of procuring gentleman for
this work, but the results of this lady's
labors in New York and elsewhere amply
proving her ability, he secured her services
at once, readily agreeing upon the highest
salary.

Similar bills in regular shape, made out
on printed bill heads, are sent throughout
the country, and at haphazard to the address
of persons whose names are found in the
directory. An unprincipled man receiving
such a document, moved by cupidity, will
often seize upon the opportunity to make a
$500 watch with only $50, which he for
wards to the mythical firm of Durvin,
Elliott & Co, from whom he never hears
again, they having pocketed the $40, with
the assurance that their correspondent will
be very careful not to expose his own ras-
cality by ventilating the subject.
The document we print was received a
day or two ago by Mr.. Hiebst, who has
proved his character by turning the bill
over to the Superintendent of Police. To a
close observer the bill is fraud on its face,
for no jeweler would write the name
