mIFUGE (genuine). gave her a teaspoon
full in the morning and another at night, after
which she passed sevonty-two worms ana

been without 1t in my family. The health Of
my children remained good that had

CIVIL SERVICE A LAW AT
LAST

For ten years past the matter of
Civil Service has been agitated and
discussed by all political parties. Con-
ventions of all shades have passed re-
solutions and incorporated it in their
platforms. Stump orators, Republi-
can and Democratic, have been loud
voiced for Civil Service. The news
paper reading of the secular press has
had column after column, year after
year, on the subject; the religious
press, too, has put in solemn words
for Civil Service reform. If one were
to judge from the amount of talent
expended in behalf Of this measure,
claimed as national reform, it might
readily have been inferred the destinies
of the Union depended upon its adop-
ton. On no question of public policy
has there ever been so much said that
was unmeaningless and without any
definite point There has been a
grasping after an intangible some
thing, reaching out for an ideal re-
form, the substance Of which was un-
by vast majority of the
people.
The Kenosha telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1860-1888, 1883-01-12

public attention was called to the lax
administration of law in these inferior
tribunals, and an effort was made to
devise enactments that would mutt
gate and assuage the evils arising
therefrom. 1t was proposed that the
Circuit Judges should select honest
and capable men for that Office, each
within his own circuit, and that the
state Executive should commission
the men so selected. The country
members opposed that benifcent meas
ure, and the blessing fell upon Cook
county alone. By a mere chance per-
haps Kenosha at this time is QUILTED
with two capable and honest men in
that Office. But one has only to go
back one or two decades to call to
mind conditions quite the reverse.
Active personal endeavor at the pri-
maries has often, too often, alasl se-
cured a nomination to that Office for
men in whom the public had no conf
dence; and as money makes the

THE TOBACCO TAX.

The manufacturers in the tobacco
interest are moving on Congress in
great force. Influential Hobbies are at
work to secure reduction of the rev.
enue tax. The present outlook seems
rather favorable to their succeeding.
The tax has from time to time been
reduced from "a to 20 and to 16, the
present tax. The tobacco men now
ask Congress to lower the tax to 8
cents per pound. 1t is claimed that at
each reduction of the tax, instead of
decreasing the revenues of the govern
ment, it has increased them. The last
fiscal year the revenue derived from
the tobacco tax was $47,000,e00; it is
argued that the reduction of the tax
one-half would so increase the manu-
facture and consumption that the reve-
nue. would sustain no loss. This cal
culation supposes the increase of to.
bacco consumers one hundred per cent.
AS it now is, nearly half of the little
urchins met on the street use tobacco
in some form; double the number of
the per cent of consumers, and what a
smoky atmosphere would fill the airl
Let Congress cheaper the cost of CT
gars and tobacco so that every daddy
can afford to furnish his little boys

WEEK OF PRAYER.

The present week has been observed
as week of prayer by evangelical
churches in this country and through
out the world. These yearly OBJ.
servances of prayer are held in pursu-
ance of the recommendation of the
Evangelical Alliance, the officers and
members Of which are composed of
all denominations of Christians. It is
based on a broad Christian liberality
and intended to bring into closer union
all denominations of Christian w0r-
shippers. For years it has been the
practice of churches that recognize
the Evangelical Alliance to assemble
together, without reference to denomi-
national lines, to observe the week of
prayer. Those churches that do not
recognize it privilege to follow the
lead OF the Evangelical Alliance are of
course not expected to depart from
their own customs. But those who
do recognize the invitation only in let
ter and not in the spirit of its true in
tent SAVIOR of narrow sectarianism
by standing aloof and refusing to fell
lowship their brethren of other de-
nominations.
For many years past it has been the
practice, with perhaps slight ex-
ceptions, for three of the churches in
this city to hold union services during
the week of prayer. This was in ac-
cordance with the practice of holding
union services in other towns and
cities, and also agreeable to the spirit
and intent Of the Evangelical Alliance.
Moreover it was eminently proper in
this, as the membership of each of the
churches was small, and is still so.
This year two of these churches re.
fused to join in union services and ex-
pressed their intention to keep separ-
ate. This they had a right to do, but
1t seems a retrograde movement in
this age of Christian advancement
while the best Christian minds in the
world are laboring to discourage the
exclusive spirit of sect. and to bring
all Christian men and women into a
truer fellowship and more in accord
ance with the mind OF the Great
Teacher. Those ministers and church
es which observe the week of prayer
separately in their own sanctuaries.
keeping aloof from other churches,
will hardly be expected to pray, as
recommended by the Evangelical AL
lance, for the reconciliation of Sec
tartan differences, and for the increase
of brotherly love.

CIRCUIT JUDGEyHIP.

The question Of Circuit Judge for
this judicial district has assumed no
particularly new aspect the past week.
The preconcerted simultaneous at
tempt, ten or more days ago, to cap
ture Racine, Kenosha and Walworth
counties for the young man Winslow,
of Racine city, is apparently at a stand
still. 1t is possible those interested in
the movement have discovered they
were little premature. The only adj
ditional name for the position comes
by way of the Union, of this city.
That paper suggests for consideration
the name of Judge Anthony Van
Wyck for Circuit Judge. We have no
authority for saying Judge Van Wyck
either desires or would consent to be
a candidate Should he consent to be
3 candidate for the Office, his high
standing in the legal profession, his
large observation and experience, his
varied learning, improved by foreign
travel, and his unQuastioned character
for honesty and integrity, eminently
fit him for the Office of Circuit Judge
of this judicial district. If we mis-
take not the sentiment Of the people
of Kenosha county. more acceptable
candidate could not be named.

CLEAR DEFINITIONS.

A committee of the New York legis-
lature has been taking testimony con-
corning the dark corners of specula-
ton. Mr.. Rufus Hatch, when on the
stand, gave some pretty clear defini-
tions.
For example, he defined a "corner
as buying more of a commodity than
is in existence, either for home con-
sumption or from the fact that you
could sell it out to somebody else at
profit, or sell it to the man who sold
what he did not have to you" A '"fu-
ture" is "buying what you don't want
from a man who hasn't got it," or
"buying other peoples imaginations."
In illustration of this Mr.. Hatch said +:
=" I owned, last June a year ago, three
times as much corn as there was in the
city of Chicago. bought other peo-
pies imaginations. If 1 had held it
thirty days longer would have made
100000 more than I did" Being ask
ed if that was legitimate transaction,
he replied 1T was as Legitimate as
as anything could be. I bought what
1 didn't want, and they sold what they
didn't have" He added, as a further
conclusion concerning such transac-
tions The man who sells what he
hasn't got ought to deliver or go to
prison." There can be no doubt of the
honesty and truth of this, though to
carry the principle into action would
put stop to large part of the bust
ness and profits of the street.
