dals, the damnable sin Of false accusation
and Islander might with propriety be
joined There is, no doubt, corruption
and venality enough abroad 10 the land
to warrant national fast to mourn over
it. But it cannot be more humiliating
than the recognition OF the fact that a
very large amount OF the talk about cor
ruption originates in false statement, or
mere suspicion Of wrong. While there is
evidence which supports the charges
against some-far too many--it is fact
that in ninety-nine cases out OF every
hundred there is scarcely moro than a
protence that the charges can be sus-
tanned. They were made only for effect.
1t is well known that the reports OF cor
ruption and charges of malfeasance in Of
fee are, to very large extent, syste'
matte attempts to backen character for
partisan or other unworthy purposes.
While we should not in the least uphold
corrupt practices, VIC ought to set the seal
of our disapprobatiou upon the utterance
of suspicious aud unsupported assertions
which can result in no good but may
work infinite evil

Woman Suffrage in Minnesota.

Minnesota is trying the experiment Of
woman suffrage in limited and cautious
way, but by the adoption of a method
which will perhaps 60 far to solve the
problem Of testing results, A law passed
by the legislature, last winter, extended
to woman the right to hold the Office of
school director, and the right to vote for
candidates for that office Wherever
there were vacancies on school boards,
therefore, the women took their prescrib.

The London Times says that the bust
ness unsoundness that was brought to the
surface there by the great failures of
1873 was only portion OF what must be
swept away before British trade will
have returned to a safe and profitable ba.
sis. At present profits have deciaed to
a minimum, and the Times says that
most Of the business done is done merely
for the sake of keeping going. There is
a prevalent stagnation that brushes out
all business enterprise. Mercantile COM
mission business and discount business
have both suffered very heavily, and the
latter has shrunk to very small proper
tons The great fall in coal and iron.
that caused the failures of 1873, has not
resulted in stimulating demand. Manu-.
featuring business is generally exceeding
ly dull and large part of the wage. earn.
Jog class is idle. A great deal more
trouble than usual has been experienced
in collecting the government revenue.
Although there is so much less demand
for capital in active business, the money
market is stringent. Very large quauti-
ties of public securities ace being sold to
raise money on. The deposits in the saw.
ings banks are steadily declining. The
Times admits that the tendency Of bust.
ness is toward a crisis aud can only hope
that it will not be bad one. Generally
speaking, the state of business in Great
Britain is strikingly similar to what it is
in this country, with the important diff
ference that we have had our crisis aud
may legitimately expect affairs to mend,
gradually, while in EogIand the crisis is
yet to come.
