OUR HALF SHEET.

Owing to the terrible scourge which
afficts the city, we are reduced to the
necessity of issuing only half sheet,

these are sick or have sickness in their
families. 1t is impossible at present to
secure other assistance. Meanwhile
those of us left will do our duty as best
we can, aud beg the indulgence of the

There's a novelty in gloves. Could
anybody guess what it ISL Gloves have
been gloves every since ! was born, and
were the only things that never got out
of fashion. The new glove, haute nou.
veaute, is Of striped kid-white stripes
and gray stripes and black and brown
stripes running perpendicularly down
your hand like a caterpillar made up the
wrong way. But nobody wears them.
They hang in the shop windows and
people stop to look at them, and say,
How horridl Although when one
comes to philosophize, he does not
know why 1t is not just as proper to
have stripes running down the hand as
down the back.-Pdris Letter.

The efficiency OF the Board Of Health
depends upon the men who compose il.
The ordinance creating the Board OF
Health is very broad and very eompre-
hensive The board creates its own
laws aud regulations-hence none but
wise, learned and experienced heads
should be employed. After creating the
law it is then called TO its execution
hence we also want men of executive
ability, courage and prudence-prompt
to act where there is necessity, yet
possessing judgment to know Of the ex-
istence of the necessity. Since last
Saturday sufficient time has elapsed
for the selection OF the very
best men in this city, and we trust
they have been found. The public,
hitherto patient and long suffering, will
not tolerate any political. party or per-
sonal favoritism in the business. We
want the best meu, and we mean to have
them.
We hear it said that the Board OF
Health is mere temporary affair, called
into existence for the present emergency.
Such talk is supremely nonsensical, and
is of piece with that style of inactlon
whicElhas heretofore refused to be taught
its duty. The Board of Health is from
this time forward to eternity permanent
institution. 1t will hereafter watch
over and guard us, not only against epi-
dem les, but will look after our food and
drink, and hundreds of other things
Yes, there is one way Of scotching it,
and that will be to set up imbeciles in

how to do it" tite barnacles." :"

young men in our county, and we believe
he will do much good in the world. But

Nine-tenths of the votes he will get will

tleman defined his position on the liquor
question last spring il the STANDARD.
He wants liquor sellers licensed, and
when they make drunkards, he wants

Mr.. Scott asks us why temperance
resolution denouncing the liquor bust
ness was killed by the committee on res
olutions in the Republican county con-
vention. We do not know. This is the
first we ever heard of it. How does Mr..
Scott come to know so much more than
we do about the proceedings in the COM
mittee rooms at Republican conven-
ton? We would ask him, and Mrs. Kir-
kendall, and all those who are claiming
that the Republican party will not do
anything against intemperance, why
some of the Prohibitionist Republicans
never offered resolution in Republi-
can convention? We have seen them in
those conventions. Why did they not
test the matter? They need not have
waited the action of a committee. They
could offer a resolution independent OF
the action of committee. We do not
pretend to know what our conventions
would have done. But it was only fair
to try them before denouncing the party
and leaving it, and trying to destroy it.

We are not inconsistent. Senator
Morton never touched a dollar of the

long letter, defending the theft, and
Senator Morton is the first man he at
