claim. Opposition to one tithe naturally be-
gets hostility to all tithes, and as the discs
tab!ishment Of the Church will sweep away
the whole system, the opposition will likely
take that form. X portion Of the clergy,
however, claim that they have not only 4
legal but divine right to be supported by a
share taken from each mans earnings and
they resolutely defy public opinion and fall
back upon their rights. They claim with
Blackstone that this is due them j,lrc diul,lo,
and they will not forcgo that claisn. Black

it is especially irksome, because there the

lii ali this, perhaps Chicago is not worse
Off than other large cities, though iii other

take the matter into tlleir own hands aud
enforce the laws for themselves. When that
time comes these tlens of vice will be swept

4 recent article in New York daily news.
| paper, which was designed to bring the
| Western visitors OF the season into ridicule,
has ocrasionetl considerable discussion
throughout the country. The article was
certainly in very bad taste. since those who
| are included under the general term Of
"Western," which was used rs a synonym

New York. and enabled the nouucnu1:

York, and really provincial to degree Of
A.hch Western city would be ashamed.
The st. lonis Globe-Dcmocrut takes the
somewhat novel but entirely fair view of
the case that ''just iii proportion as 4 city ex-
tends In size and population, just so much
the more local and narrow-lninded does it
become" and it illustrates this rule by tbs
following apt. comparison between the news
