LET REASON REIGN.

Men ought always to be cautious,
governed by reason rather than
passion, but there are seasons when
a double effort is called for in this
direction. For several days past,
intense excitement has prevailed in
this vicinity, growing out Of our To-
cal elections. Before election day
it prevailed, and the exceedingly
close contest between the candidates
for sheriff intensified the feeling
among the friends of both candidates.
The result was, imprudent, in
discreet friends of both parties have
said great many indiscreet things,
calculated to add fuel to the flames
that were already running higher
than is consistent with good order
and fraternal feeling. We regret

DR.. TANNER completed his wone
derful fast yesterday at II o'clock.
The incidents attending it are graph
ically set forth in cur dispatches this
morning. Few persons believed when
he began that he would hold out.
Others thought it would be only a
sham-that he-would be supplied on
the sly, with food sufficient to
sustain life. But he has been
kept under the closest surveil>
lance, and those who ought to know,
believe the fast has been an
honest one. What has been gained
in the Interest of science does not
appear to our unscientifc eye.
That he has gained considerable nos
toriety, no one will dispute. We
have scarcely seen newspaper in
the last forty days that has not had
more or less of him, and he now
has pretty thoroughly established
national reputation. He will proba-
bly, enter the lecture field and make
some money. While his under
taking was foolhardy, and may yet
cost him his life, we are glad he got
through with it.

THERE is a world of good, practi~
cal common sense in the following
little speech made by Gen. Garfield
the other day at Syracuse, New
York, where he was called out of a
railway car as he was passing through
on his way to the city of New York {;
CITIZENs:-When I was
here two years ago you were busy in
debating the question whether you
would force the hard times out OF
Syracuse with printing.presses and
Fl 4t money, but, after deIiberatioo, you
concluded TO work your way Quito
walk by the old road, on which the
guide-boaId stands, wherein God
wrote: by the sweat Of thy face
shalt thou eat thy bread" You fol
lowed the road about one year longer.
and it brought you to the high summit
of prosperity which shines and smiles
all over this greatIand of ours, and it
SMILES all the brighter because you de-
serve it by keeping the faith and
maintaining The truth of the multipli-
cation table in your financial doctrine,
(App!ause.) | congratulate you that
that same multiplicationtable that
! you believed in two years ago, in the
| dark ose, is true to-day, when the su q.
| light Of prosperity falls upon the land
! (Great applsuee.) / congratulate you
that you never went back on it, but
| believed in it all the time, ana that
you are glad to-day that you stuck to
The truth when it was doubted and
| denied. I thank you for coming here
| and letting me look in your faces
again, and will not detain you by q
speech. (Long continued cheers.)
Here the whole financial ques-
ton is stated in a nut she'll. The
democrats of this whole country
were engaged two years ago il
an effort to prove the Bible lie
wherein it says that man shall ca
his bread "by the sweat of his face.
They said that the printing press
instead Of labor, was the basis of al
wealth; that all there was to do t.
get money was to print it. They
tried to make US believe that tn
multiplication table was a fallacy
and that darkness was light. The.
actually did succeed in doing this t
a large extent. But the people ar
now laughing over their own gull
b.lity, and wondering how the,
could have been SO deceived. Blu
the democrats see themselves VIVA
fools they were then, and are no1
swearing that they always were 70

remember. IF public sentiment will
frown down the use of whisky in
elections it will be stopped. The
people, without regard to party,
should rise in their might and give
men and parties to understand that
such a thing in the future
means defeat to the man or the
party that INDUCES in it. Besides
its corrupting influence at the bal
lot box, it is prolific source of
street broils, personal collisions and
bloodshed. 1z.a- ..s. .sc~-
And, in this connection, we again
call upon the authorities to enforce
the law relative to carrying cons
cealed weapons. Enforce it vigor-
ously and impartially. Every man
found upon the streets with pistol
IN his pocket, unless he IS autnor-
lied to carry it, should be promptly
arrested and punished to the full
extent of the law. This ought
to be done without regard to
his social position or family
connexions. We have seen one
difficulty on the streets this week,
in which pistols were used. IF the
party who used them had been IN
armed the difficulty would not have
: occurred. Let this law against car,
rying pistols be rigidly enforced.
If the law-abiding portion of the
. community will only determine thai
t the law shall be enforced, and thai
noisy mobs and drunken bullieE
shall stay off our streets, everything
will be quiet, peacable and orderly

FIRE AND WATER.
AHen's Publishing House DANA sed

Inc sharp, nervous clang of the fire bells
anu dense volumes of smoke rising above the
TOOLS OF Water street startled the neonle
yesterday morning. 1t was nearly six o'clock
"hen the alarm sounded Men and women
hocked out of doors and asked the location
Oh the fire. '.It's Aliens This was enough
10 send hundreds at once 10 Water street.
smoke was pouring in binding volumes from
the publishing house, and it at first looked
as If serious confederation must ensne.
ABOUT quarter of six, as the night press
men were preparing to close work. Mr..
lrask, the engineer, discovered fire in the
cellar almost below the engine. Here were
stored several tons of paper clippings, which
oiazed up like finder. The fire ran along the
northern wall, and leaped through the press
room floor. The building was full of infiam-
mabie material, and immediate action was
necessary. Doors were closed TO prevent
draft, and the whistle blown. Soon the en-
gines were on hand. Thanks 70 the new FIRE
alarm, which runs from the police station to
the east side engine house, the over-the-river
boys arrived first. Two streams were got
into the cellar from the hydrants. The
"Cushnoc" played two streams and the ''City''
one On one side of the cellar were two
hundred tons of coal. This was literally
deluged with water. The fire was extin-
guished by eight o'clock. Mr. Allen esti-
mates his total loss by fire and delay at 500
900; insured. The presses will have to be
cleaned; the floor timbers are badly charred.
Some fifty thousand printed papers, all ready
for mail, were spoiled, in addition to several
tons of blank paper. But the heaviest loss
will result from the necessary delay, as the
establishment was running night and day and
unable to keep pace with orders. The fire
probably originated from live coal dropping
through the floor among the waste paper
