1877. As late as June, 1873. not one dol
lar had been given to replace it. The
wise statesmen of democracy have hat
their eyes SO close to investigating com
mittees that this unrooted building has not
been seen. Enough money has been
wasted on truitless Investigations to have
rebuilt the structure. This neglect TO re.
pair public building, while starving men
have been looking for the work it would
have AFFORDED, may be good democratic
policy, but il is bad business management.

months to conclude that root is needed

A democratic House of Represent ttivcs

ments of the adjournment from hour to

The last appropriation bill has been agreed
TO after long conference; the President
and his Cabinet are patiently awaiting the
final adjournment at the Capitol; the Sen
ate concurs in the proposition of the House
TO postpone and take recesses. But still
the sitting is prolonged 10 eighteen hours
in length. For this reason: The demo-
cratic chairman Of the democratic com
mittee on Enrolled B lis is drunk-lrunk
on the floor of the House His democratic
confreres and democratic clerks are drunk
with one exception. The one republican
member of this committee whose duty it
is to enroll bills for inal passage and the
Presidents signature, is at work-hard at
work-at night for twelve consecutive
hours in the meantime his democratic
chairman delivering maudlin Greek reel a.
tons on the floor Of the House. At last the
republican member comes on to the floor
with the sundry civil bill under bis arm.
properly engrossed, compared, and re-
ported. The House Is not slow to appre.
ciate his work by hearty applause.
and the democratic Speaker gra p, his
hand heartily and thanks him for reliev
ing the attention of the House, after a
continued session Of eighteen hours.
Who is the lesser man of the two-this
cofegiate-educated representative from
Texas, or this sell-educat d colored bar
Der once a slave? And Yet this dem
ocratie House proposes to unseat this
"tiack' republican (R4iney) and seat per

democratic chairman. Truly the democ-
rscy represents reform, but it is OF a kind
which sinks in the nostrils.

4 Bold. Honest Letter.

The name Of Col. Henry S. Russell having been
mentioned in connection with the Boston Police
Commission, the opposition to him resurrected
from among the papers filed in the License Com
missoners' Office letter written in 1871 by Col.
Russell to Mayor Prince, which with great
flourish they publish as showing that the former
gentleman Is lacking in respect for the city OF
Boston, and IN that degree Of good judgment
which would make hun qualified to administer any
proportion of that clty's affairs. The following
is the copy OF the letter:
HOME FARM, MILTON.
My DEAR SIR:-SiN weeks ago young man
man with his wife and two children applied to me
for hep, he having been thrown out OF work by a
mining company N New Hampshire. lie and his
family were entirely destitute. and gave HIM
work, till the cursed proximity Of your licensed
ooisouer yesterday brought shame aud dire dis

August 3, 1917
His Honor, +. o. Prince.
People who viii criticse such letter as the
above uniayorabiy' says the boston journal, are
not to be credited eitaer with warm hearts OF good
Judgment. 1t is letter that no need be
ashamed of having written, and standing alone
without any comment Whatever, it bears within it
sell the explanation Of the strength which is
shown in the reelection upon the administration Of
the license law IN Boston. When a generous
hearted man takes an interest in poor family
aud finds his benevolent intentions brought to
naught by an evil which might have been re-
stiicted he il not to be blamed for freedom OF eX-
preston Aside from this consideration, however
the letter Of Col Russell strikes at hard fact in
regard to the attitude assumed by the License
Commissioners The gentleman himself is in fa
vor OF license law, but he fayors it as a restrict
i've measure, ADD not as means for fostering a
traffic, the evils Of which are generally conceded
The license law. executed by the Boston License
Commission, has not been restrictive and an ex
animation OF the licensed places in almost any
section OF the city viii prove. If not a culpablc
want of discrimination in granting licenses. Al
least a lack OF judgment on the part Of the Com
missioner5 Col. Russell, then, has simply told
the truth in regard to Boston, and has told il in
uncomfortably PLAIN terms. The fact that he i,
able TO see clearly what is lacking in order to make
our city more truly worthy of the Globes declara
ton that it is "tLe best city the world to be born
mendatons lac could have, and his letter to Mayor
Prince has any eff, ct upon his pros poets of con-
frmation it ought to be to improve them 1t does
credit to both his heart aud hi, head for it was an
honest opinion f.arlessly expressed"
