Mr.. RUFUS HATCH has added another
character to his diversified repertoire, and
now appears before an admiring public as
jealous guardian of Nature. He makes the
terrible announcement that the geysers and
woods of the Yellowstone National Park
are being destroyed by the vandalism of
visitors. He fingers with plaintive ca
dences upon such an outrage and virtously
requests the Government to lease unto
himself and his associates sufficient of the
land composing the park for the purpose of
building numerous hotels. He holds forth
the logical idea that the desecration of the
park will be prevented by the increase of
visitors to his hostelrios, and that under
the argus eyes of hotel clerks and bell
boys the reconstructed geysers will ma
jestically squirt heavenward without mo-
lestation, and that the leaves shall rustic
in the winds unplucked, unscattcred and
Impressed. OF course Mr.. Hatch is moved
entirely in this matter by n Darwinian
affection for Nature. lie desires no emolu-
ment, no vision of Mammon rises before his
eyes, but there only floats a panorama of
exquisitely perfect geysers and gracefully
glorious woods. The day, however, will
be more intensely frigid than mint julep
before Congress sets the seal of its approval
upon such farcial request.

THE Senate yesterday adopted rosolu-
tion offered by Mr.. Hoar, instructing the
Postmaster General to send to the Senate
statement showing how much money has
been paid to steamship companies for the
transportation of the mails of the United
States to foreign countries during each year
since 1910; what part Of such sum during
each year has been paid to companies own-
ing ships sailing under the American flag,
together with other and less important
information. The facts which this resolution
will bring to the attention of the Senate
and the country will no doubt astonish
great many well.meaning but ill.informed
persons. II will disclose among other
things the fact that ont of eight millions of
dollars expended for carrying the U. S.
mails on tho high geas since 1870, $j,s0O,O00
have been paid to English companies and
81, 100000 to American companies. That is
to say, during twelve years we have been
subsidizing English ships at the rate of half
n million dollars u year, and
our own at the rate of 100000 n
year. We do not adduce this fact for the
sake oil argument, but merely By way OF
anticipating the Postofficc Department. in
purveyng information for the use of the
Senate. Doubtless it is all right. We
have been told by all the apostles of purity
and reform, from Senator Beck down to
the vile and venal New York Times, that ii
would be scandalous and wicked for the
Government to pay American ships for
carrying the American mails. If this be true
it of course follows that the proper thing To
do is to pay the money to Eng.
lish ships, because the mails must be
carried. Perhaps the English could per.
form many other of our functions of gov.
ernment for us in like superior manner
We are just now trying to adopt poor
copy of their civil.service system. Later
we shall probably adopt other features ol
their polity.

Democratic n ON I'm atiOns for Coun

ell.
Nominations were made by the Demo-
Gratis in four wards last Saturday for
City Council. Messrs. Quinn and Nc
Cue fairly represent the Democracy OF
the Second Ward. Mr.. Quinn in the
palmy days of the past, was member
of the City Council and at times showed
a strong leaning to liberality. He has
been a bolter and kicker in the party
for some time past and the party
though usually strong in the Second
Ward was forced to accept him or SUD-
NIT to defeat Mr.. Quinn, however
il not S Sithout ability and if everything
else measured up to the same standard,
he would make good Councilman.
John McCue is asaloon keeper on the
south side and was never yet in Coun-
Gil, and neither he nor Mr.. Quinn Will
20 there this time if the Republicans
nominate good responsible candidates
in opposition to them.
In the Third Ward the Democrats
slaugh1ered their bestman, Mr.. Taylor,
who made an able and honest council
man, This is no reason, however, why
Peter j. Ford will not make good
member of Council. He is a merchant
and one of our most energetic and push
ing real estate dealers and has been
instrumental in attracting people to set
tie in the western part of the city. MI.
Blake was nominated for the one year
term over Merris Taylor. He is a mem
Der of the present Council and CHAIR
man of the Fire committee. The tick
et is not a strong one and can easily be
defeated by the Republicans with such
candidates as Thomas johnson and
Charles H, Groves.
In the Eleventh Ward A. S. Denney,
present Councilman had a walk over
for the two year term, and for the one
year term John Newell, a young man
who inst attained HI majority was
nominated. Whatever else may be
said Of Newell he certainly lacks that
experience which is requisite to make
a good Councilman. The Republicans
have plenty Of good material in this
ward to makea winning ticket, and we
hope they will be discreet in making
their nominations.
Of course Lewis Paynter was nomi'
mated in the Fourth Ward, and the
fact that he had no opposition is trl-
butte to his ability as a member OF
Council. Mr.. Paynter's past success
and long service in Council had much
to do in giving him clear track on
Saturday, theDemocrats being AFRAID
to take new man.for fear he might De
defeated. The voters of that ward now
know who their candidates are for
Council and between Mr.. Paynter,
Democrat, and Mr.. Turner, Republican,,
they must make choice. If they elect
Mr.. Turner, there will not be the least
falling Oft in ability, and the City Coun-
Gil will Jog along as well as if Mr. Payn-
ter was elected. Over the result of last
Saturdays nomination, the Republi,
cans have no reason to be alarmed. All
they have to do is to nominate good
respectable candidates for Council, and
the present Democratic majority VIII

Floral NnfUldinGs.

IT. e budding energies OF the trees ana
shrubs have been checked by the cold
weather of the past week, but in spite
of this, vegetation has made consider
able progress. The heavy rains while
not desired are not without their ad-
vantages as they have completely satu-
rated the earth and given fresh lease
Of life to dry wells and springs, until
well a.ong in the summer months. III
is not only pleasant, but interesting to
watch the unfolding Of nature IN all
it's varied beauty. From day to day
the wooded bluffs of the BrandyWine
assumes a deeper tinge Of green, the
black oaks leading the way, with other
oaks, hickories, chestnutS, naples, pop
| lars, logwoou and butternuts, fol-
lowing close upon their heels. But the
greatest attraction is in tair Flora
domain. Notwithstanding the rain and
the cold weather, The art of the florists
fills the flower market with the choicest
beauty. In outward dress the geranlnln
holds sway as standard flower, al ways
beautiful ard ever blooming. The tU'
schia, one OF The most beautiful OF How
ers, assumes q modest air by hanging
it, head, while pansies without the as
sun ption of heauty-pretty without
knowing it looks modestly upwards
with ita broad smiling face to claim
recognition. Nearly all the beautiful
, STANDARD flowers are with us in prSfu
sion, and the fact there are more
eager buyers than ever before Is al
evidence that refinement and sentiinen
q are on the advance march. Soon th
season of roses will be upon us thougl
s later than usual. After all there !
9 nothing more beautiful and swee
f scented than tho rose, and it may prop
@ erly De denominated the queen OF flow
g ers.
fl Already clusters Of buds are account
It lating upon the vines as If preparin
It for grand burst opon the first SUI
l. shiny day to surprise us. Soon II
Il gables Of houses, walls, fences an
ia porches will be covered with varl
g gated labyrinth of roses and then tt
5. summer will be full upon us. BY th'
time we will be prepared to watch tt
appearance of the seed ANNALS al tht
