CONSCIENTIOUS COUNCILMEN.

ACITY council that draws no per diem,
that has no piekings or perquisites, that
uses its own shoe leather in lieu of car
riages and lievery at public expense,
that boards itself and pays for its own
beer, that legislates in tumble. down
building at the risk of its life, may read
the following squib from the Boston
advertiser with feelings of envy if not
chargin:
Something over $3l 900 was spent by the
aldermen and common counCilmen during
the last city year in food, drink, and cigars
for themselves. Some committees do not
appear in the list at all, and the amount
would be swelled il their expenses were in.
cluded. There are eigbty-four members of
accordingly obtained refreshments" to
the average value Of $50 each, about seven
dollars q week
But the sober-minded, discreet and
dignified body that presides over the
destinies of the city of Wheeling; that
cocks its feet on pine table, puffs its
five-for-a-niekle stogy, as it adjusts its
equilibrium betimes to ease its bearings
on hard chair, and contemplates the
uncharitable criticism of cold and CAL
culsting constituency, may, indeed,
envy the festive lot of a Boston council
man, and feel with renewed force the
gripings of a half-fed or hungry condi-
ton; but the Wheeling eouncilman's
conscience is his great and inexhausti-
bic source ofrepose; the work may be
hard and the rations short but he sleeps
o. nights.

A TENNESSEE court has been trying
for two weeks to secure a jury to hear
the case against the defaulting State
Treasurer, Polk, and has not yet sue
ceeded. There does not seem to be any
one in the county who has not ex-
pressed an opinion in the case. That
Polk is guilty of stealing about $500, 900
is as certain as the sun, bv his own con-
fession and by his proposition to restore
the money in installments. If the de-
PENDANT has expressed so direct an
opinion of his guilt it ought not to be a
very hard case to try.

A NEW USE FOR DEMOCRATIC GOV.
EKAMENT.

The adoption Of purely Democratic
form of government for students is the
latest experiment in college discipline
and is receiving the plaudits Of the
New England press.
One of the present Civil Service Com
missioners, DIR. Gregory, claims to have
made the first successful trial Of the
plan in the U University of Illinois. The
Amherst College has recently formu-
lated plan whereby the students,
through a senate of ten, chosen from
the four classes, govern themselves,
making rules Of discipline, trying Of
Tenders and deereeing punishment.
The Illinois, or Gregory plan, was
still more Democratic. 1t is thus des-
cribed by the New York Tribune:
The proposition came from the president
and faculty, and was unanimously accept.
ed by the students. A constitution was
adopted providing for the exercise of legis-
latiye power by the whole body of students,
who made laws against various offences
such IS gambling, drinking, disturbance,
etc. Fines were nxed ranging from Few
cents TO IS. The students elected q presi-
dent, secretary, treasurer, ETC., while the
president Of the college appointed q mar
shsl and three judges. These latter consti-
tuted a college court, before which all yio-
lstions of college law were tried without a
jury. The president Of the college had an
absolute veto upon the acts Of the legisls-
ture. and the faculty retained the power to
expel or suspend.
There is nothing new in the scheme
except in its application to the govern
ment of q college. 1t is simply demo-
critic principles put to new uses. 1t
can hardly be called an experiment in
asmuch as it has been successfully sp.
piled to the government, not only Of
the whole people, but of every fractional
organization Of the people Of this coun-
try for tine past one hundred years. Our
jails, penitentiaries, and penal institu-
lions are about the only exceptions to
the rule of democratic government.
It Is time the educational institutions
were falling into line, and more nearly
conforming their system to the genius
of our general government. The most
