IMPORTANT T RAILROAD
TRAVELLERS.
A First-class Hotel and Restaurant
at Toledo-the Island House
Re-decorated, Re-fitted, and under
New and Efficient MANAGEMENT.

In the present age of extensive and still
increasing railroad facilities, perhaps there are
few subjects of more general interest than
the proper conduct of such places of enter
tainment as may be specially provided for the
convenience Of travellers. 1t is a fact already
patent to every one accustomed to the rail
that there appears to be sort of conspiracy
among certain B. r. refreshment rooms and
hotels TO take advantage by exhorbitant pri-
ces, while in some instances the accommoda-
ton is far from what it ought to be. Hence
public confidence is shaken. But =sAen one
meets with a irst-cIsss Institution of this kind

piatrict of Columbia.

Congress has adopted a bill for
simplifying the government of the
District of Columbia and rendering
it less expensive. The Senate yes
terday adopted the House bill with
out amendment, and the President
will doubtless sign it. The District
Government should be kept within
the control of Congress, otherwise
the army of corruptionists at the
Capital will seize and use it for plum
dering the Treasury, just as they
have been doing for the past few
years. We do not doubt but very
important improvements have been
made in the appearance and sanitary
condition of Washington City, but
that those having the management
of these improvements were dishon-
est and sought to amass fortunes
through corrupt transaction, there
can be no doubt whatever. There
is no disposition on the part of the
people of the country to find fault
with any 'expenpiture in the District
of Columbia which may be required
by the interests Of the people or the
credit of the nation, but they pro-
test against what they believe to be
wholesale robbery, and demand that
the affairs of the District shall here
after be conducted upon more hon
est principals, and that those having
charge of public affairs shall be made
to account for every dollar of public
funds expended. As we understand
it, this is the object Of the bill just
passed by Congress- bill which
was prepared after a thorough in
vestigation of the workings of the
system Of government which it abol-
lshes.

We are glad to observe that some of our
citizens are better disposed towards the inter-
est of the public than those who have the
power to order, for in a few isolated cases the
repair Of side walks is being prosecuted. But
what is wanted is a sweeping order from the
Council to compel occupiers to respect the
safety Of the public-and we want the proper
authorities to strictly enforce that order.
Many shade trees, on public thoroughfares,
also remain untrimmed, and it looks much as
if our local "powers that be- care tile in the
interest of peoples heads or heels when on
the streets. Gentlemen, pray move in the
matter.

The Repdere san At Large.

After all the arrests that have
been made of persons supposed to
belong to the Bender family, who
committed so many murders in Kan
sas, all of the family are still at
large. The person arrested in Utah
recently as the elder Bender, and
who it is reported, had been satisfac-
torily identified, proves to be q de
nented old man by the name Of
Kosh. The county attorney of La
bette county, Kansas, publishes a
description of the senior Bender, in
which the criminal is described as s.
man having an intelligent eounte-
nance, and resembling in no way
the vagranst so frequently taken for
members of the Bender family. He
adds that all the Benders, notWith-
standing their fendish natures, man
ners, and, as they are supplied with
money, it is not likely that they will
be found acting the part of fools or
agrants.-W Wiaona MINI. RepubE-

If Jotnson's AsodyAs Lininaent is half as
valuable as people say it is, no family should
be without it. Certainly no person, be he
lawyer, doctor, minister, or of any other pro-
fession, should start on a journey without it.
No sailor, fisherman or Woodsman should be
without it. In fact it is needed wherever
there is an ache, sprain, cut, bruise, cough or
cold.
Farmers and "Horse Men" are continually
inquiring what we know of the utility of
Sheridan's CaUGIry Condition PosOders, and
in reply, We would say, through the columns
of the JOURNAL that we have heard from hun
dreds who have used them with gratifying re-
suits; that is also our experience.

do we know of another in the busin-
ess who will do more pulling for a
free dinner, or register more boldly
as "editor" DC, than the said theo-
rist. He believes in advertising-
himself, that landlords may ''take

self accordingly" His diction may
be fine, but after all it is only hy-
neahole.

The editor of the Journal, of Bu-
cyrus, Ohio, lays down a golden
rule to the editorial profession when
he says, "Editors should rise above
asking any privileges whatever.
There was no other business which
was permitted to send its produc-
tions throug the mail, and he could
see no reasons why any editor
should condescend to accept it."
Editors are like other men in this
life, and have no rights but what
they can purchase or earn.-Roao-
eRs Reporter.

would be especially fine were there

The latest from Beecher is to the
effect that he will not open his
mouth to notice any Of the allega-
tions of Tilton. He is either q great
moral hero or a very unworthy man.
Who shall decide? If the old ad-
age @silence gives consent" has any
virtue in it, he would do better to
speak, for the mass of readers will
accept his silence as an evidence of
guilt, and that instead of his being
the moral hero he would have the
public believe, Tilton is really the
long suffering hero. Speak Mr..
Beecher, or forever after hold thy
peace.

The Tilton Beechel scandal is
again revived, and this time so pub
licly that an investigation must
come. When Tilton refused to give
evidence against Beecher, at the
time Plymouth church called upon
him upon the plea that he was no
longer a member of that church, the
matter became snenced. But Rev.
DR.. Leonard Bacon has lately so
severely criticised Tilton's course
that smarting under the last he has
made q public statement of the mat
ter in his Golden Age, which will re-
quire an investigation and refutation
if the pastor of Plymouth church is
to maintain MS standing.

misunderstanding of intricate laws
which compelled us, under severe
penalties, to invoice our goods both
at cost price and at market prices,
led US in the case Of the great num-
Der Of importations to invoice their
value above cost, and so resulted in
