Y We hope there is no truth in the report
that Garfield believes that Providence directed
his nomination and election. When a man be-
gins TO think that God has taken special charge
ofhis affairs, and that the Republican party de-
serves none of the credit of his election, the re-
suit is an idiotic hypoeritical fraud, like Hayes.
We still have hopes for Garfield.

ishng to what ample inducements they are able

ed in Sunday School and Church work.

pamphlet entitled Shopping in New York. which
gives an animated description of the system and
economy of n great New York Store, well an il
lustrated price list Of host Of articles of general
necessity which may lie ordered by mail or express

dresses in certain styles, of which illustrations
given For fixed price, the purchaser receives the
pattern and the entire material for making up, in
eluding lining, sewing silk, buttons and in short

tage of this system, to lady who wishes to do her

WHERE Is sRAsrALL'-Shortly before the open
ing Of the session of the Legislature, John Z.
Rastall, of Usage, made pilgrimage to Topeka,
evidently for the purpose Of promulgating his
ideas of liquor legislation. The two main fea-
lures Of his programme were, State COnstabu-
larry force, and caucus of the temperance mem-
bers, to enter into league to 'sit down on ig-
more, and utterly break down the influence of
those members who were opposed to prohibi-
tory law. We told him, at the time, that when
he go5 there, he would be surprised TO find how
little he amounted to. We guess he has found
il so; for the session is more than twO-thirds
gone, and the name of Rastall has scarcely fig
ured in the proceedings. The idea of State
Constabulary has not been seriously considered; ;
and the members opposed to the amendment speak
as often and as long they choose, and are at
tentively listened to- for they are the ablest men
in the Legislature. Outside of the temperance
question, they are the most influential members,
and the principal part of the Legislation thus far
completed has been managed by them. 1t is
about time Rastall was sending that postal
card, telling us we were right.

wasting time in debating the temperance bills.
If it has done much else than blow on the tenn
perance question, we have failed to sift it ont.
No result has been arrived at on the temperance
issue, but the probability is that law will be
passed that is so unreasonable and impractical
BILE that it cannot be enforced. The Supreme
