THE PUBLIC SERVICE.

There should be the strictest econ
omy III the expenditures of the gov
eminent consistent with its effective
administration, and all unnecessary
offices should be abolished. Offices
should be conferred only upon the
basis of high character and particu-
lar fitness, and should be administer
ed only as public trusts, and not for
private advantage.
The foregoing are chief among
THE CARDINAL PRINCIPLES OF THE
REPUBLICAN PARTY,
and to carry them into full practical
effect is the work it now has on hand.
To the completion of its great mis-
sion we address ourselves in hope
and confidence, oheered and stimula-
ted by the recollection of its past
achievements, remembering that, un-
der God, it Is to that party that we
are indebted, in this Centennial year
Of our existence, for preserved, UNI
broken Union; for the fact that there
is no master or slave throughout our
broad dominions, and that eman-
cipated millions look upon the en-
sign of the Republic as the symbol
OF tho fulfilled declaration that call
men are created free and equal" and
the guaranty of their own equality
under the law with the most highly
favored citizen of the land, to the
intelligence and conscience of all
who desire good government, good
will, good money, and universal pros
perity. The Republican party, not
unmindful Of imperfection and the
shortcomings of human organization,
yet with the honest purposes Of its
masses promptly to retrieve all err
rors and SO summarily punish all Of
Tenders against the laws Of the coun-
try, confidently submits Its claims
for the continued support of the Anne.

We are afraid the Democrats in this

They are very busy, night and day, can
wasting. drumming up recruits, watch
ing the registry and seeking out mon to
be natura'ized. We are afraid there is
no correspor ding zeal and industry in
our ranks. We fear that General Apathy
has too many men in his brigade. We
may as we'll deal plainly with fact and
say that the Republican tickets of this
county. at the past two genera! elections,
have had too much outside aid-or. if
not too much, good deal more than We
can expect this year. We must depend
upon our own exeriions, our own re-
sources and our own individual efficiency.
What we have to do must be done By
ourselves. We have none to lean Oh,
none to do our work for US. The Demo
Gratis are working like beavers. They
are organized, industrious. determined.

Chicago that they refused to let him

es, and who churchmauled him and
let him go, breaches some splendid
sermons, full of truth and light and
excellent lessons. a recent discourse
Of his abourds in admirable reflections
upon the growing love of display in
the homes of people who are infatuated
with fashion. "Wine," says he, els
not half so dangerous as lace and fur
niture." And further along he says
that "of the hundred cases of fraud that
q year or a month reveals, not tenth
part of them spring from the old pas
sions that cnce were wont to devastate
society, but from new madness the
frauds spring-a hunger for home
magnificence.'' And in concluding
this timely dissertation upon widely
prevailing vice, he eloquently and
truly said: "The Roman Republic
was compelled once to pass law for
bidding the consuls from going in
professions with white horses to their
cars. The empire had done enough of
that. The people had seen the tax
lists and the wars and the brides that
came from splendor, and they ordained
by law that their Republic should
make an experiment in simplicity.
But the law was vain. The barbarian
love of display was all through and
through the people. To crafty their
taste they would sack any city and
strip the rings from the dying women,
or gold from the affairs of the gods.
When Rome died it was full of furni-
ture and tapestry and marbles, but

mind and Of virtue bad trodden its
elegant parlors for a Hundred years.

The south Carolina Rebellion to

HooDLUME.-Two hoodlum tramps got
into row yesterday on Bridge street
and were arrested by Officer Pryor, who
happened along at the opportune mo-
ment. and took them to the Courthouse.
Before locking them up an opportunity
Vas given them to escape, and they availed
themselves Of it and broke for the rail-
road like quarter horses. As nothing
has been seen of them since, it is sup
posed they took their departure for parts
Unknown. This is cheap and efica-
cious way of getting rid Of them
(Silver State, October I6.
This way Of dealing with the hoodlum
question may do for . temporary e1-
pedient but the mere driving of . set Of
bad boys out of one place into another
is like unto the process Of robbing Peter
to pay Paul. It is to be hoped that
among the very first things done by the
incoming Legislature will be the franz
ipg and periecting and passing of bill
providing for . Reformatory Institute
for young offenders. Such an institu-
ton is demanded in justice to the rising
generation. in justice to the State and in
justice to the best good of society. 1t
is little less than barbarous that this
State should neglect longer to take some
effective steps to prevent the upgrowth
of generation of criminals. The press
has duty to perform in this regard. and
it should not cease to urge upon all can
didates for Legislative positions the i'm
portance of an institution for the re-
straint, correction and instruction of
lawless boys.

A so-cslled "prismoidal railway is a
single track railway-the only rail being
in the center Of The track an! the car
wheels resting upon it at an angle of
something like As degrees. 4 section Of
such railroad with q car made to fit it
was on exhibition on California street,
San Francisco. year or more ago. 1t
seems from the following that there is a
project to build such railroad from
Reno TO Virginia City. The Journal of
yesterday says:
A project for building a pris,noidal
railroad direct from Reno to Virginia is
now under consideration by certain par
ties who have the energy and means to
successfully carry it out. 1t is thought
that the farmers along the line from
Reno to the foot of the Geiser Grade
would, for small consideration. grant
the right Of way, and from there the
road would go via Louise Creek into Vir-
ginia. To construct such road would
only require $4,000 per mile, exclusive
of rolling stock, ETC., so that altogether
not over $50, 900 would be required to
build and stock it. A prismoidal, sixty
miles in length, is now in operation in
West Virginia, and works satisfactorily.
Seth Martin and others of Truckee, are
about to build one from Truckee to Mar
tins mill, distance Of fourteen miles,
which will ultimately be extended into
Sierra Valley. It is the mill men in AMI
around Truckee who are agitating such
rnoI from Rorn ~ Viruinia Thov
claim that they cannot now compete
with Yeringtop, Bliss & Co., of Car
son, for the lumber trade. of Virginia.
But a prismoidal road would enable
them to land their lumber, timber. ETC..
so that ready market would be found
for all they saw. The enterprise is
likely to assume shape soon. and We
hope the project will be pushed through.

From the y. Y, World. !

FROM the y. Y, "Orln.
An unhappy mother was yesterday found
by a funeral party at Greenwood lying with
her four little children huddled about her
on the grave OF her husband. They were
all quietly dying OF starvation amid the
costly monuments, reared by civilized opu-
lence and religion, to attest the sanctity of
human affections and human hopes. The
poor creatures had been turned out Of their
apartments in this city, and they found no
room left for them anywhere among the
living in the metropolis Of the great
republic. We chronieled but the other day
the appalling fact that in London nearly
fifty human beings annually die Of starva-
ton, in spite Of all the miracles which
steam and electricitHhave wrought to better
human life since Wordsworth wrote his uu-
forgettable lines:
Homeless q ear q housard homer stood.
And 1r a thousand tables pined and
wanted food"
This miserable story Of the day in New
York, following upon half dozen others of
the same sort during the present summer,
Is terrible and sardonic commentary upon
our own proud centennial boasts If our own
social and political system TO those Of the

POOR PRISON FOOD,

None of the correspondents from New
Castle or Sheri-l Lam 5son, have attempt
ed to deny that the prisoners at New Gas.
tie Jail did rise en- masse Oh the eighth
day Of this month and demand better
food than they were receiving. A proni-
nant citizen OF New Castle was
tsld by Jail commissioner tina,
the prisoners were receiving food unst for
human beings. This gentleman left word
at THE HERALD Office, and we de not
whip the party over the shoulders Of the
Sheriff, but defend an injured human
beng, whether criminal or not. Forty
cents day is the sum provided for feed
ing prisoners, and that food they did L.
ceive previous to their rebellion, it is
stated, did not cost fifteen cents a day per
man.
We think it is the duty of the Lev '
Count to appoint committee to enquire
into the cost of the food furnished daily
to each prisoner, and if so we feel that
they will be satisfied that twenty cents a
day for each prisoner will pay the sheriff
. handsome profit,
