There Is a growing popular desire 70 see men in
Office who know an honest man from thief. and
can detect stealing when it rs attempted under their
own noses The trouble with Democratic Reformers
- that thev are not able to see anything wrong in
stealing until the thief attracts public attention
AT the recent session OF the Ohio Democratic Com
mittce there was a good deal of lively talk, and at
least one outbreak OF virgin truth. motion had
been made that reporters be excluded i'll order that
there might be I'M unfcttercd exchange of views on
the CONDITION and needs of the party. One member
remarked with considerable warmth that tho De-
mocracy had no secrets II would be ashamed 20 see
in the newspapers. This excited the disgust of a
Cleveland member, who sprang TO the front with
ths counterblast: " That Will do very well to talk
about, bat have come here TO talk business. We
can talk and blow about reforms and all sorts of
good things, but the attempts at reform by the
Democratic party for the past fifteen or sixteen
V, ara have been id Hat failures don't believe

IL could recover from this shock, voted TO let tho
reporters remain, probably for the reason that they
couldnt take away anything worse than they had
already received.

Mr.. Bayard's standing as Presidential can
didate should be improved by his action of
yesterday. He reported favorably from the
Committee on the Judiciary the bill which is
designed to make it impossible for Federal
election officers to check frauds on
the part of State officers. The bill
provides that no marshal, deputymar-
shall or supervisor shall have power to arrest
OF imprison on election day any election officer
acting under an appointment derived from a
State law but it is stated that an arrest may
be made at any time after the close of cleo
ton day, that is to say, after the cheating Is

tho traditional Democratic cOmplalnt that Mr.
Bayard is really Republican at heart.

Mr.. Edward Atkinson, Of Boston, has lately pre-
pared and published plan for the better protection
of the city against fire. With the particulars of
this we have at present nothing to do. Mr.. Atkin-
sons paper was submitted to the Boston ne I'm
derwuters UnIon with the view OF obtaining the
influence of that body in favor Of the adOpuOn Of
Mr. Atkmson's plans by the Municipal Government.
Slngulaly enough, one of the members of the
Union deprecates this. for the reason that it
would destroy the business Of fire insurance.
"The purpose Of our existence as class +"
SAYS this generous underwater is to make money"
Bat if fires are to be stopped, comparatively
stopped what Is to become of the money invested
in insurance against themY Well. this n philan-
throplc way Of putting the matter-no fires, no
insurance; no insurance, no dividends Don't
let us stop fires" says this writer; let us
rather raise the rates and continue TO pay
osses as they occur" We have seldom met
with moro remarkable example OF the
conflict Of general interest with particular
interest life insurance company might as well
oppose sanitary provisions upon the ground that,
death became less probable, fewer people would in
sure. Certainly, property ought not to be held at
a greater risk than necessary, in order that insur
nnoo companies may make money. 4 Ere almost
always entails loss. whatever the insurance and
fires are absolute destruction of property, whether
there be insurance or not. This fact does not ap-
pear to have occurred TO the Boston underwater
who wants fires because fires make business for his
company.

For some time ordnance officers Of the United
States Army have been looking for suitable tract
Of land upon which to store the Government pow
der and erect works for the manufacture of powder
The essential conditions are that the tract shall be
away from the salt air. which is said to have a de-
teroratng influence upon the article that it snail
at the same time be easy of and easily fori-
fed that it shall afford water power and have de-
pOsits Of clay necessary for manufacture; that it
shall be large enough to contain number of maya
zines at such distances apart that the explosion Of
one will not affect the rest aud it is desirable that
the location shall be behind the fOrrifcations of

in. this State, Pennsylvania Connecticut and New
Jersey The tract known as the middle Forge
property" on the Green Pond Mountain Morris
County. y. j., few miles from Dover, seems TO
have been finally selected. At least. negotiations
have so far advanced that, at the request OF the
Army officer in charge, bill was passed by the late
Jersey Legislature TO allow the United States
to acquire n tito to the land. The tract contains
400 acres and belongs to George f. RIghtor.
Congress has made appropriation of 100000 for
this purpose, and annual appropriations for main
tanning the magazine and mandatory will be
made hereafter 1t is expected that similar action
will be taken by the Navy Department.

which enacts " that emulation shall be cherished

trely cut out. Nevertheless it still remains the
duty of the Commissioner of Education to direct
the operations under this act,' and to record the
result of the same in his annual statement. This
puts the mop which is to be brandished against the
rising tide of worldly mindedness at the National
Capital into competent hands. and it will insure

Eaton's valuable reports.
The strange delusion that the gentle and innocent
sex is not the male sex, which has been handed
down from the time Of an absurd and
weak-mnded chiyalry, is disappearing IN
these days of enlightenment and equality,
and the position of men IN the community
is steadily improving. The Courts of the two great
cities Yesterday afforded examples of the innate
depravity of woman and clearly demonstrated her
unitness, on moral grounds to participate
in the pure work Of politics. No less
than three abused and matreated husbands
cried out to justice for protection against
fierce and bloody minded wives. who brutally nsed
