X Representative Constituent.

 A few days ago we fell in with gentleman from the rural districts on his way to the Union depot. He had about sixty pounds of baggage on his shoulder, and was looking for the ticket-office for the purpose of securing ! ticket. He was right up and down man, and was ever ready to enter into conversa- tion.
 'Just come down from the Legislature" he observed, as he brushed the sweat from his brow.
 ssDid eh ? Been up to the Legislature ?'' ''You bet I have. I'm not a member, but 1 made things hum up there all the same" 'Had 8 bill ?"
 "Not exactly. I come down from Otsego county to take the kinks out of our member, He was sailing in with high head, and if I'd waited ten days longer he'd have been boosting the whole State. What dye think ?' ''I dunno"
 "He wouldn't speak to me when I first got there Think of that Up home there we l rated him about No. f, and sent him down to Albany, more because none of us could leave, and he wanted to cut me colder'n wedge! What do you think p
 ''Rather mean"
 ''You bet. But lowered his nose a bit. We'd heard how he was prancing around and putting on airs and making out that he run our county, and few of us got together and wrote him a letter. It didn't seem to do him any SScO, t1e1 oo WC gu coS5SpASA eS"hA ."A1A they sent me down to put on the currycomb-" And you did ?"
 Didn't :? He'd put in about dozen bills affecting our county, and I mashed all but two. He had laid himself out for six or seven speeches and I mashed all but one The first day got here he was supporting motions and moving to amend and strike out, but I mighty soon let him understand that no such chaff passed for oratory with us. He tried to bulldoze me first, but when he found that his constituency had got after him he calmed down He'd been fooling with the game law, and had got mixed up with dog tax bill, and a sawlog law, and bill about inland fishing, and don't know what else. took him out in the lobby of the cap itol, and says I Now, boy, you squat Your constituents demand that you calm right down. We don't want no Cicero in ours, and we won't have it. We sent you down here to do little quiet work, and not to prance around and imagine you've got Patrick Henry's hat on. We are humble people, taking kindly to log houses and johnny-c cake, and we don't go q cent on big words and long hourishes' That's what I told him, and he calmed"
 ''Did, eh ?''
 "You bet he did And if we hear anything more about his rising to explain his vote on the dog tax or moving to recommit the musk-rat bill, our county won't be no place for him to return to. This is the place, eh? We'll I'll fo1Sar mn anS than tek ka the train for home

COLOR BLINDNESS.

1t is not clearly proved but that the re-
cent accident on the Hudson River road al
Spuyten Duyvil, was in large degree due
to color blindness on the part of the en-
gineer. The pecessity of examining en-
ployees of railroads for color blindness has
been often insisted upon, and it is wen to
again refer to it. The argument in brief
is that large percentage, much more
than is generally supposed, are incapable
of distinguishing colors, that the safety Of
railroad transportations is entirely Deepen
dent upon the correct reading of the color
ed signal lights that under our present
system it is not only possible, but highly
probable that may men are employed upon
in positions where they have to
read these lights, that are color blind,
hence it is for the benefit of the railroads
and necessary for the safety of the travel
ing public, that a strict examination for
color blindness be made. of all the EN-
ployees of our railroads. A bill to require
such examination will be introduced into
the Iowa Legislature this session, and our
own state representatives would go long
ways toward establishing reputation for
usefulness if they did likewise.

CONGRESSIONAL APPROPRIATIONS.

The Hennepin canal scheme bids fail
to go the way of all similar ones thai
come up before Congress and become sue
cessful in way that viii render it doubt
full whether it was net failure. Other
similar and less deserving schemes are be-
ing tackled on to it and every congress
man who votes for it makes it a condition
precedent that some little creek IN his dis
trict shall be improved 80 as to be navigable
for push boats, or that some duck pond
shall be fenced in and have the scum
drained off. Thus a plan like the Hen
nepln canal, that is really meritorious and
deserves the support Of Congress is loaded
down with others that are not meritorious
and increase the cost to sum that rem
ders doubtful the benefit of the righteous
cause To disinterested observer it must
look as if this obtaining of congressional
votes by the attaching of amendments to
the original bill partakes in a large degree
0f the nature of bribery.

NEWsPAPER PURITY.

In referring to the prize fight of Tuesday
the moral Davenport Gazette says:
With the belief that such brutal show
cannot be otherwise than demoralizing, the
Gazette condensed the half column account
sent by the Associated Press into the space
of a few lines. IF there are any among eul
readers who are debased enough to wish
to read minute account of such contest
we suppose that their desires can be graft
fled. But not through the columns of this
paper as long as it remains a Journal fol-

It is certainly kind Of the Gazette to thus
care for the morals of its readers, to take
their spiritual welfare under its protecting
nicious literature falls under their eye It
is sad reflection that said readers ara such
mental children that they cannot decide
for themselves what is best for them! to
read, but the Gazette is equal to the emer-
gency and is willing to measure out to
them the literary doses that it thinks will
best suit their enfeebled condition The

What sort of water do you believe ca
pable of producing the purest ice?'
Il believe to be wholesome the ice
| formed in any stream which does not re-
ceive the sewage nor the refuse from fac
| tories nor an unusual proportion of agri-
cultural drainage. The same remark
/ should apply to lake ice, with the excep-
| ton that in malarial regions pond ice is
open to suspicion" -
What ice do you use in your family?"
In common with the other members of
the Sanitary Protection Association of this
city, I use ice from the Lily Pond, near
the Ocean drive, which is supplied by the
Newport Ice Company, and which con-
slider perfectly safe. - ss
.sWhat effect would there be upon the
ice formed in a pond which receives only
small quantity of drainage matter9''
st'That would depend upon the size of
the pond. Unless the proportion of drain
age matter to the size Of the pond was
considerable there would probably be but
little danger, unless germs of typhoid fe-
vef were contained in the sewage.
Are there any special districts in this
vicinity or near New York or near other
large centres where ice, in your opinion
utterly incapable of imparting disease, can
be gathered?
II cannot answer that except in gen.
era1 way I should say that undoubtedly
the great bulk of the ice received in our
cities is perfectly wholesome, and probably
in most ponds and rivers receiving sewage
in considerable quantities portions of the
ice may be wholly free from danger But
considering the fact that our ice supplies
are drawn from SO many quarters In the
North, portions of it undoubtedly coming
from localities that are. to say the least,
suspicious, we can never be certain of not
happening upon one infected piece among
thousands of safe ones. The whole subject
should, i think, be autheraitatiVely iuves
tigated and controlled. !"
