OF these artists are said to possess merit hut

increased, and that on lacquer, cosonne,

Cincinnati is much incensed at the easy
letting down of one of her murderers, OF
whom she has now five in jail, by jury few
days ago. The murder was of the most
cold blooded kind, and the evidence was Of
the most convincing description, consisting
in part of confession of the Murderer
himself which he had repeated on three diff
ferent occasions. The jury however brought
in a verdict of manslaughter much to the
surprise Of the judge, who pronounced it an
outrageous verdict, and to everybody else,
the counsel for the criminal included. The
jury were booted at on the street, md
threats of lynching were freely made not on
ly against the defendant but against the jury

1t appears that the Boston gamblers have
for years been under the protection of the
police who have informed them when raids
were intended in time for them to set their
houses in order. For this service the police
have undoubtedly been literally paid and
with their salaries from the city have been
making handsome thing. Mayor Martin has
determined to put stop to this business
and, as the first measure looking to that end,
has transferred the suspected police captains
to other precints. The gamblers have taken
no action yet, but we may expect that they
will soon issue manifesto denouncing the
Mayor and the Law and Order League of Bos-
n,which is supporting him IN his campaign
against crime, and wind up by declaring
that they will have no dealings with mem
bers of the league.

A Note of Warming.

1t is announced that the Republican State
Committee of Massachusetts has advised the
local committees to get rid of members who
are federal offi:e-holders. Under the civil
service act of last year any person in the SER
vice of the United States who holds member

restly or indirectly solicits or receives from
persons in the service of the United States

on conviction, to fine or imprisonment, or
both The secretary of the Congressional
Republican Committee has called the atteD-
ton of the Republican State Committee to
this fact, and the latter body has in turn
called attention to it on the part of Congress
sional, County, Senatorial, City and Town
committees.
In the present temper of the public mind
this is polite as well as necessary, and we
think 1t would be polite in any case. There
are at least two reasons which recommend
such course. irrespective of any reasons re-
lating to the proprlety of federal officers
serving on party committees, growing out of
their duty as servants in their Offices of the
whole people as distinguished from the par
ty in power. One of these reasons is that
such officers when on committees, whether
they desire to do so or not, obtain for their
opinions and wishes more authority, because
of their official position, than they would
have otherwise, and hence it often happens
that their Judgment is not opposed when it
ought TO be. The other is that their inter-
est and obligations as office-holders. restrict
the freedom of their judgment, or at least of
the expression of it, in all matters which af-
feet the confidence of the party in the char
acter and the policy of their superior officers
In the service.
In the nature of the case this must be the
tendency of the conditions of their position.
however honorable and unselfish they may
be. Between the point where Republican
who is private citizen may feel justified in
expressing friendly Interpretation of the
course of the administration, and the point
where federal officer serving on a political
committee would feel justified in doing it,
there is a long distance. It is beyond ques-
ton that there are many men holding feder-
al Offices whose qualifications, in all other
respects, for committee service are superior;

The discovery of new gold digglngs in
Idaho is causing great rush to that region.
Fabulous stories are told of the richness OF
the mines, but of authentic information
there's very little. A correspondent of the
Chicago Tribune asserts that one claim
cleaned up about $12, 1000 in three weeks and
that another has yielded from $12 to $40 per
day man. Eleven claims are being worked.
Already there are enc thousand buildings in

a Priest Doing Good Work

Father McNulty, of St. Johns Roma an
Catholic church, at Paterson, N. j., made
complaint before Recorder Gresves Monday
against number of liquor-sellers for keeping
disorderly houses, the alleged offence consist
ing in selling drink on Sunday. He is prac-
rical and energetic temperance worker, and a
terror to Sunday rumsellers and rum drinkers
He frequently makes unannoanced visits to
grvg-shops, and If any members of his flock
happen to be there he has no hesitation in
ejecting them forcibly. He had made one of
these rounds of inspection last Sun, ay in the
Southern part of the CITY aud visi ted large
number of liquor shops. He found nearly all
selling strong drink. In one place he fund
twenty-seven young men, most of them under
twenty-oDe years of age. His complaint be-
fore the Recorder yesterday was the result of
this visit "Pather Mac" as he is affection
ately called by nearly everybody in Paterson,

to break up the Sunday and unlicensed liquor
traffic, and to repress tipping as much as posi-
bic among those uuder his spiritual authority.
He is acknowledged to be one Of the most in

popularity, fesrlessness, shrewdness and tire

AYERS
Cherry PectoraI

Is not a new claimant for popular conf
dence, but medicine which is to-day
saving the lives of the third generation
who have come into being since it was
first offered to the public.
There is not household in which this
invaluable remedy has once been in
troduced where its use has ever been
abandoned, and there is not person
who has ever given it proper trial
for any throat or lung disease suscep-
tible of cure, who has not been made
well by it.
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL has,
in numberless instances, cured obstinate
cases of chronic Bronchitis, Larnygitis,
and even acute Pneumonia, and has
saved many patients in the earlier stages
of Pulmonary Consumption. 1t is
medicine that only requires to be taken in
small doses, is pleasant to the taste, and is
needed in every house where there are
children, as there is nothing so good as
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL for treat
ment of Group and Whooping Cough.
These are all plain facts, which can be
verified by anybody, and should be re-
membered by everybody.
