appear to have been using the space which
their patrons expected to find filled with
news as vehicle for personal abuse be-

about it, and all press facilities to be en-
ployed in scattering broadcast their mock

The Sultan and his assistants ought to be
convinced by this time that General Lew
Wallace, our Minister at Constantinople, is
not man to be trifed with. Only the 9TH
or day he refused to accept system of Ii
censes to which his diplomatic colleagues
had conditionslly agreed, but which, upon
hearing of his decision, they made haste to
repudiate, and now he is insisting upon an
apology from the Porte for the manner in
which an American physician, who had be-
gun the practice of his profession in TripoIi,
has been treated by the local authorities.
General Wallace is well fitted to be our rep
resentative at Constantinople, for in Tur-
key, ~ in some other places, foreigner is
respected and deferred TO in proportion as
he asserts himself. The more one demands
there, the more he receives and the better
he Is thought Of.

A little bit of investigation would
quiet the present howl against the
University. The burden of their
argument is that the Regents and
Faculty are composed of Democrats.
So far as the charge concerning the
Faculty is concerned, we can say there
are four Professors who are the most
pronounced Republicans. These
men are gentlemen and their politics
are not considered by the Board of
Regents as in any manner against
them. They hold their positions by
virtue of their eminent qualifications
for the places, and will never be dis
turbed on account of their political
beliefs.

Gov. jackson appears not to be
perturbed in the least by the adverse
criticisms and inuendoes of the oppo-
sition on the work of the State Board
of Equalization. In conversation
with the writer he very naively put
the question: "Did you ever see a
reform inaugurated yet that dema-
gogues did not seek to take advan-
tage ofit?" Continuing he remarked
impressively: "Now, mark my
words, when the people und erstand
this business, and learn how consci-
entiously scrupulous and careful
were the Board in their work, this
partisan howl of certain organs will
be the greatest boomerang you ever
saw" And we believe the Governor S
words will be prophetic. -clarksburg

When the Democrats came into
power in this State, they found the
Treasury empty, a debt of 100000
due the school fund, and all the pub
lie buildings in an unfinished condi-
ton. Without increasing the tax,
ION the contrary after the year 1873
they reduced it FIVE cents on the
500, they paid back the 100000
that had been taken from the school
fund, completed the Insane Asylum,
the Deaf, Dumb and Blind Institu-
ton, the Penitentiary, the University,
and have spent more the 100000 on
the State Capitol at Charleston.
The Democratic party is now try
ing to reduce taxation by unearthing
frauds, whereby much personal prop
erty has escaped taxation, and by
equalizing the taxes SO that the bur-
den shall fall alike ON all. When the
reforms now undertaken are fully ac-
complished, the people will find their
taxes lighter than they have ever
been before.
The Republican papers would have
the people, especially the farmers be-
lieye that if their party was in power
there would be no taxes to pay. They
are SO anxious to get into power that
they would contract to run the gov
eminent without money and with
out price," The truth is, if the Re-
publicans had been in control of the
Legislature last winter, the State tax
would now be 40c on the $780, Sena-
tor Dawson, the leader of the party,
tried to have the rate fixed at 40c.
The Republican press is not engag-
ed in very laudable undertaking,
when it strives to educate the people
of the State into the idea that it is
wrong for them to pay taxes to sup
port the government. Every good
citizen should esteem it a privilege as
we'll as duty to pay his fair share OF
the taxes to support the government
that protects him in his life and prop
crty.- Mountain Herald.

The Marietta Times says: The
last Republican Congress reduced the
tariff on wool; the Ohio Republican
plantform demands the restoration OF
that tariff. The last Republican Leg
islature defeated bill to abolish the
contract system in the penitentiary
the Ohio Republican platform de-
mands that the contract system in
the penitentiary be abolished. Ohio
wool growers and Ohio workingmen
arc thus given an opportunity to
choose between Republican practices
and Republican profession.

pEsARRrNo MINORS FROM SALOONS.
A Creditabie Act of the Legislature.

Two years ago the Legislature passed an
act making 1t misdemeanor punishable
with fine and imprisonment for any saloon
keeper or gambling house keeper to permit
any minor to resort to or stop therein; but ii
provided that to constitute the offense the
parents or guardians should have previously
served written notice to the owners or
keepers of saloons to not allow their boys to
resort to and remain therein. It was also
minors employed as clerks in said places.
These provisions rendered what was designed
to be good law practically imperative, as
few parents or guardians would serve such
notices. At the recent session the section of
the act defining the offense was changed 50
as to throw the responsibility directly on the
keepers Of the houses without notice and not
permitting the employment of minors in such
places. This is a good law and should be
rigidly enforced. The pit Of damnation that
has yawned deepest and widest at the feet Of
the youths of Montana has been the saloon
and gambling house door where they were
free to enter, where habits of drinking and
gaming were acquired, and where they were
educated to dissipated and worthless lives.
The enactment of this one little section Is
worth thousand times to Montana what the
recent session cost. Following is the amend
ed section!
Be IL enacted by the Legislative Assembly of the
Territory Of Montana:
SECTION l. That section / of said act be
amended so as to read as follows:
SEc.1. Amy person or persons who, keeping
