The fourth article Is by Rev. DR.. Bel

The author reconnts what has been
done In Britain to reform the civil
service of that country, and shows
how the ex perience. OF Bii ish ates-
men may be turned to advantage by
American lawmakers. Professor SIS
mon Newcomb, in an article on sour
Political Dangers calls attention TO
the need OF some non political tribu-
nal for the determin alton Of contested
elections. He looks on the presiden-
tial struggle OF three years ago. and
the recent excitement In Maine, as
sy no ptomatic of diseased political
condition which calls for remedies
very different from those which have
hitherto been employed. John Lam

DRUNKENNESS A DISEASE.

We suppose that there are few, if
any, Of our readers who can not re.
call to memory, if they do not now
know of such cases, men who were
dying by inches as it were, the most
horrible death imaginable, from the
excessive use Of intoxicating drinks.
We have known men, who, as we
honestly believe, have made the
strongest efforts possible to restrain
themselves from the use Of intoxi>
eating stimulants, but who seemed
to be utterly powerless to abandon
the habit. Habit has become 80 fixed
as to be a disease beyond
remedy. And we have seen these
slaves to appetite 60 on drinking
when they must know that it is
poison to their system and will
sooner or later bring them to a pre-
mature grave. They have made
their own lives miserable and have
become such an intolerable burden
to their friends as to make their
death something of relief. Lam
guage fails us to describe the ter
rors Of such situation.
If such condition is a
disease, the man who is able
to diagnose it is public
benefactor. DR.. Unger, of
Chicago, processes to have done so,
as our readers may remember, and
have discovered a cure. His
very has attracted a great deal
anton in Chicago, as well as
" points. We find the fol-
a the New York Times Of
and give it. as showing

MARCH MAGAZINES.

The leading article In the North
American Review for March IL by
ex-Judge Jerry s. Black, and Is en-.
titled, 1.-THE Third Term" being a re-
ply to ex-senator Howe's paper on
that subject In the Review for Feb
ruary. Hon. e. w. Stoughton follows
Mr.. Black, taking precisely the con-
trary view, that not oily is o third
term not to be deprecated, but that 1t
is eminently desirable, especially If, as
in General Grants case, an interval OF
time has elapsed between the second
term and the third. A timely article
by David A. Wells aims to prove that
discriminating income tax is essen
TALLY communism, and that this is
specially true of such an in-
income tax as was levied In
the United States by Acts of Con-
gress in 1853 and succeeding years.

THAT CONGRESSIONAL SCAN.
DIAL.

TIL scandal which has gained pub
Lefty in Washington recently, in
which a number of senator's and
representatives are implicated, is
a most disgraceful affair. And the
disgrace does not rest alone with
the parties implicated. IT extends
also to their constituents. If the
fountain is impure, the stream will
be tainted. As long as the people
support for high Offices, men of
VIGOROUSLY corrupt morals, they
may expect TO see their lawmakers
engaging in practices disgusting to
decent persons. If liber>
tines, gamblers and drunkards
are elected to Office, it is too much
to expect their reformation after
their election. They reason with
themselves, sit is true that we are
guilty of these things, but those
who voted for US, including ex-
emplary church members, knew cur
habits, and upon this knowledge
elected US. This is an endorsement
of our character, and being thus
endorsed, is there any occasion fol
a change 2"
And who will say that such rea
soning is not well>founded ? And
how many of US can truthfully
claim that We have not assisted, at
some time or other in our lives, in
the elevation of such characters to
Office? When men who say they
hate vice cease to vote for vicious
men for Office, then there will be
fewer complaints about such scan'
dals as this which comes to US from
Washington, and which, if true,
ought to damn those who are impli-
Gated.
