What NIr. Pitts Might have saved
Himself.

Mr.. Henry Pitts, of Kingston, N. Y.
suffered from the presence of Stone in thu
Bladder for several years. DR.. Kennedy
Of Rondout, N. Y, removed the foreign
body by the knife. Had Mr.. Pitts, ant
others simply afflicted, used Kennedy's,
"Favorite Remedy" in the earlier stage:
of the disease, the medicine would have
prevented the formation of the calculus Of
stone, rendering dangerous surgical
operation unnecessary. DIR. Kennedy
gave .sFayorite Remedy" to prevent the
return of the disease, and Mr.. Pitt re.
mains in perfect health to this day.

A VERY PROPER ORDER.-The Sec.
rotary Of the Interior has issued q very
proper order in directing officers of ter
ritorial governments to return TO their
posts. The New York Herald well re-
marks that 1t has grown into habit for
Governors and other officers of our Ter.
ritories "to spend most of their time
lobbying about Washington or idlipe
about New York. These gentlemen
generally accept their places, not because
they desire to identify themselves with
the Territories and build up new COM
munities, but as stepping stones to the
Senate or high political preferment at
home. As consequence we have seri.
ous catastrophes, like the outbreak in
Arizona, with an absent Governor. If
Governor are good for anything In our
Territories they should remain among
ther people. Secretary Kirkwood has
made 1t mandatory upon them To return.
We trust he will be firm enough To en-
force his order. 1t would be well for
some Of our Congressmen at the open.
Ing Of the session to offer a resolution
asking the Interior Department to in.
form the country Of the number of days
the Governors Of each Territory have
spent at their posts during the last ten
years."

PERHAPS the Rspu5lican can inform
it's readers Is to the disposition Of the
street dirt under the Republican party
during the twenty years it controlled
the city prior to 1878. Whs sold and
who bought the oomposts that were
made near Fourteenth and Jefferson
streets, and what was done with the
money? We do not know whether r
Commissioner Lynch sold any dirt or
not. But if he did and had said 90 at
once, and proposed to hand over the
money to the city at the Councils
order that would have been all that
would have been required. In the
absence Of any proof that he did sell
ten or fifteen dollars worth Of street
dirt We are not justified in saying
that he does not tell the truth when he
says he did not. The whole affair 70
minds one Of the 'slabor of the noun
tain" but we fail to see even 90 much
as "mouse" as the result. OF course
we may not be as we'll informed a. the
committee and We shall await its re-
port tonight.
