GEO. W. PECK, the "home mission ary" of the Milwaukee (Wis.) Sun, always carries level head on his broad shoulders, but it was never more so than when he penned the following kind words in praise of one of the most prosperous classes of people in this country:
 The New York illustrated funny papers contain frequent cartoons representing the Jews in possession of New York, and call that city the "New Jerusalem" A late publica- tion has a cartoon representing the ceremony of taking down the last sign of an American business house, and the placing of a sign board in its place, with the names, "Oppen- heimer & Rubenstein," with the three balls over it. We do not know whether there is any truth in the rumor that the Jews are getting pos session of New York property, or not, but should not view such a result with alarm. A city that has been run in debt hundreds of millions of dollars by thieving gentiles, reeds some good Jews to get it out of debt New York will always be a good bus mess point, and if the Jews own it there will not be so much useless ex- penditure, and fewer men will make fortunes out of contracts, and after wards reside Tn Sing Sing. We will risk the Jews every time.

While the result in Ohio does not involve political questions it will furthur dampen the ardor of the Stalwarts in other States.

A New Claim for the Tariff.

A Ponnsylvanis wool-grower ap. peared before the tariff commission in behalf of an increase in the duty on wool. Among his reasons for urging an advance, he said that the number of sheep had increased twen. ty five per cent, and the yield peI fleece from three to five pounds since the tariff of 1867 went into operation It is new claim for the tariff that it will make the wool grow on q sheep's back. We knew that improv ed breeding would do it, but this i: the first animation we have had tha, the tariff possessed that virtue. This is equal to crediting the excellent crops of 1S79-80 to John Sherman and the Republican party.--Boster Post.

1t will be remembered that Rather had
a very queer experience when his feet were
amputated. After he had lost these valua-
BILE members, and they were no longer a
part Of his person, he felt a needle sticking
in one of the feet that were buried. They
were unesrthed, and the needle taken out
to the great relief Of the patient. A SINH
lar story is now going the rounds Of the
press. A man was wounded in the leg by
the premature bursting of a toy pistol, and
the whole limb was amputated in order to
prevent lockjaw. A few days later he sent
for the undertaken, to whom the eschewed
member had been confided, and com
planned that the leg must have been buried
in a cramped position for it panied him
horribly. The undertaken assured him
that such was not the case, but nothing
would do-the patient insisted that the
leg was doubled at the knee, and must be
dug up and Strengthened or he should die
Of agony. Finally the undertaken, pro.
voked beyond discretion by the fellows
obstinacy, blurted out: "Confound your
stupid soul never buried your leg at
all; I gave it to my dog" The patient was
silenced, apparently, but pretty soon he
gave another groan, and then thoughtful.

from dependence upon California and
California institutions, the sentiment in
favor of bringing the unfortunate insane
of Nevada within our State lines had
already become a determination in the
public mind when the last Legislature
assembled. Had there been no conflict
Insane Asylum there would have been
no contest whatever as to it's removal to
some point or other in Nevada, to Car
son, Reno, the Humboldt Meadows, or
somewhere else, just so that the location
would be in Nevada. Several places put
forward claims for the location, and the
inevitable clash of local interests took
place. The agents of DR.. Clark, who
had enjoyed a fat monopoly in the care
of Nevada's insane farmed out to
him, took advantage of the strife thus
caused, and by arraying diverse
interests in this question as well as every
other possible, came near defeating the
| almost universal wishes Of the people of
the State. At one point in the fight
Mr.. Powning evidently gave up the
cause for his constituency of Washoe as
lost, for when in its original form his
bill! was beat in the Senate he took
refuge under his desk lid and
wept, and his disappointment was so
great that he actually resigned his SEN
atorship, which resignation, however,
upon being afterwards encouraged to try
again, he withdrew and continued his
seat. The outcome of the whole mat
ter was this: The Legislature, fearing
to jeopardize the wishes of the people
longer by c~ontending against the Washoe
| statesman, ordered that the Insane Asy-
lum be located at Reno. This is the
story in a nutshell. That the Insane
Asylum would have been removed to
| Nevada, even without the labors of Mr..
Powning, barely admits of question,
while also it is unquestlonably true that
for securing its location at Reno he
should be credited with all the praise
that his success in the battle for his i'm
mediate constituency entities him to.
Whether it would not have been bet
ter, however, all things considered, to
locate the Asylum at Carson, is still an
open question.

TWO FINE SECURITIES,

The people of Richmond, Va, who
have again been buying Confederate
bonds, doubtless have their motives for
the acquisition of this species Of property.
1t is safe to say that those who part with
it for solid cash are well content with the
operation. Perhaps a mutual boom
might be given to these bonds and Keely
motor stock by pooling the two, thus
giving the holders and purchasers doubly
brilliant chances of making a fortune.

who says he saw it does not hesitate to
add that they rolled the egg to a small

while they cut through the shell with
