Spats by newsp aper editors through their col.
ums are the commonest Of cOmmonplaces; for
there are still editors who imagine the public are
interested in the private life Of themselves and
rivals. AS general thing, however, the public
are profoundly Indifferent to these things, for as
our friend of the Earlvile gazette puts it, when
editor uses the editorial 1--WE" it is p,'ma facje
idence of his being possessed with DEVILS" and
all devils very commonplace Before Christ
came into the world, saws the Gazstte, men were
SO possessed and could consistently say "we";
but since Christ came and cast them out no man
can say 1--WE" unless he be still so possessed"
On this theory our modern editors must be in a
"bad way" However, this week seems to indi-
cate that the distinguished honor which the
gazette had given the FREE TRADER as being able
TO consistently say "we,n must be divided by us
with our German neighbors of the WOchcsJLdH
and H9od. How the spat between them began
we cannot say. for it has been going on for a very
long time. As neither loved the other over
much, naturally the use of epthets was not stint
ed, and the discussion waXed personal-decdedly
so. If there was any great difference in the quail
ity or quantity Of words used by either delicate
discrimination alone could have found it, until
last Friday The HerOld came out with very per-
sonal article, charging the WochaJldtt man with
gross immortality and dishonesty. This was too
much for the Wochea6latt, whoimmediately began
a criminal action against the HeFod for libel. 4
hearing before the justice was set for yesterday
but was continued until next week. The feeling
between the two journals is exceedingly hot;
and q hard fight is anticipated. The prosecuting
attorney and Mr.. Bull represent the Wochenbldtt
and ]. B. Rice the Heroid, and the novelty of
newspaper spat dragged into the courts may per-
haps be anticipated at the next term of court for
it is altogether likely that Mr.. Heo'd will bring
the same kind of an action against Mr.. WocLa-
bait.

The passage by congress of an appropriation
covering fast mail west of Chicago has Great
ed little interest in this vicinity and some bene-
fits to our city and county may be hoped for.
The question Of which of the three routes to
Omaha has not yet been settled but as the Rock
Island is the shortest and can make the quickest
time its chances seem to stand first. II, howev-
err either Of the Others should be selected it is
thought that competing train will be put on
the line unless the three roads should pool, as
they now do on the Sunday train. It is proposed
that the fast train shall leave Chicago about five
O'Clock in the morning, passing Ottawa, If the
Rock Island be the road little after seven,
bringing with it the Chicago morning papers.
This would be decided advantage over the
present system, to say nothing Of The receipt of
the eastern mail which would arrive by this train
instead of at lao.

PrshibiMOn and Politics.

To the Editor:-We noticed in this weeks is
sue of the Republican that where they mentioned
the T. A. L. convention, held in Marseilles last
week, they say that the sentiment of the con
vention was opposed se f,oiisAkA action. Now,
the truth is simply this, that over ane tenths OF
the members of that convention were in favor
of prohibition and political action. and by the time
Of the next convention the sentiment will have
reached that pitch that it will take more than al
Ottawa P. U. and an editor Of the Republican to
stay the tide of prohibition fsr political action.
These are plain, unvarnished facts. Prohibition
for political action, and those who cannot stand
on that platform must get of the fence and give
the rails rest. These are Saots rs seen by one
who was there. PROHIBITIoNIsT.

it is in first class order, and it will probably be

the Seneca, Ottawa d Mendoza railroad will

The grass in Washington square is nearly read
for cutting.

AT Streator, on Wednesday, Simon james,
lad, was injured at the Richardson elevator.
A shaft, about two inches in diameter, projects
outside the building for about four feet, and 1t
is supposed the boy was playing around it. In
some manner he got caught in the smooth
revolving Skating and was whired around
about forty times before the machinery could
be stopped. During his revolutions his head
and body were repeatedly knocked against the
earth and bruised in shocking manner. The
surgeon in attendance says he is dong as well
as could be expected, and may recover. There
are no broken bones but the head and trunk
and limbs were all jerked and shaken until he
resembles a victim of the ancient rack. The
head is swelled to twice the ordinary size,
and his eyes are completely closed

Cultivate a Sweet Voice.

There is no power of love so hard to
get and keep as a kind voice. Al kind
hand is deaf and dumb. It NAV be
rough in flesh and blood, yet do the work
OF a soft heart, and do it with a soft
touch. But there is no one thing that
love SO much needs as sweet voice to
tell what it means and feels, and it is
hard to get it and keep it in the right
tone. One must start in youth, and be
on the watch night and day, at work and
play, to get and keep voice that shall
speak at all times the thought of a kind
heart. But this is the time when sharp
voice is most apt to be got You often
hear boys and girls say words at play
with a quick, sharp tone, as if it were
the snap of a whip. When one of them
gets yexed you will hear voice that
sounds as if it were made up of snarl,
whine and bark Such voice often
speaks worse than the heart feels. II
shows more iH-wil in the tone than in
the words. 1t is often in mirth that one
gets a voice or tone that is sharp, and
sticks to him through life, and stirs up
ill-wiu and grief, and falls like drop of
gall on the sweet joys at ome. Such
as these get sharp home voice for use
and keep their best voice for those they
meet elsewhere, just as they would save
their best cakes and pies for guests and
all their sour food for their own board. /
would say to all boys and girls, s'Use
your guests voice at hcme.n Watch it
by day as pearl of great price, for it
will be worth more to you in the days to
come than the hest raarl hid in tba coo
A kind voice is lark's song to hearth
and home 1t is to the heart what light
is to the eye.-Jewish Messenger.
