Ond visit, and finding himself made
welcome, he went whenever his time
permitted him. Little by little he learned
something of the Carew's history.
Goeffrey's father had inherited fine
old property, which had belonged to his
family for many generations, but owing
to his youthful extravaganza had been
obliged to mortgage the land heavily.
He had never been fond of business,
and finding his involved alta rs difficult
to manage. had gradually intrusted
them to an agent, on whom he relied
completely. This agent proved dis
honest. and while making his own fort

Not until the crash came, and the

anxious. Godfrey could not work, and
the doctor would have to be paid.
The invalid gained little physical

''he doubtless met in his recent travels

"You must take us yourself to see

The PRESS cheerfully gives place to the
card of the City Marshal, printed in our To-
cal columns, as it will give place to proper
statement by any gentleman who thinks the
PRESS has done him wrong. The PRESS
does not wilfully make false report of any
matter, and when it has reason to believe
that 1t has done so needs no request to make
a correction. Touching the matter of the
City Marshal's conduct in the Ward eau
Gus the g. atements to which he objects came
to us from a Democratic source and were
represented to be the basis of numerously
signed petition for a new caucus, which we
printed as part of the current news in en-
tire good faith, having no reason to suspect
that an imposition was intended, and know
lag generally that there was trouble in the
party in that Ward as well as in Ward 2.
The statement in our report of the caucus
that he objected to the use of the check list
was plainly wrong, but evidently not by in
tention. for the report of what he said showed
that he spoke in favor OF using it. With re-
gard to the general statement that he is not
using his official position for political effect.
and that the police force is not being used
as political machine, be is entitled to the
full benefit of his denial 1t Is contrary to
the tenor of many reports from various
sources that have been brought to us, and
knowing how common such action is, and
that many officials in high places consider il
perfectly legitimate to permit and encourage
the activity of their subordinates in partisan
work, we had not presumed that Marsha
Andrews thought it improper. In view Of
his explicit statement we shall henceforth
presume that such reports as we have hith.

we have convincing evidence to the con.

The Argus "inds upon inquiring that
Mayor Deering has already carried $s4, $50
to the sinking fund" o yes, but this and
much more was paid to the city as overdue
interest by the Grand Trunk R. R. Compa-
ny, and secured to the city by Mayor Libby,
for which Mayor Deering is entitled to no
credit. 1t all ought to have gone into the
sinking fund. What has become of the rest
OF it9 BY what authority has any of it been
used for the current expenses of the cityP
We reiterate our conviction that nothing
will be saved from the appropriations of
this year for the sinking fund, if the bills of
this administration are paid. Its legitimate
available funds for current city expenses
have been larger by more than $4,000 than
were available the previous year, yet last
year the expenses were less than the appro-
priations by $27. Isl, and there was sur
plus cash income of S16,e5852 in addition
which was also saved. There will be no such
exhibit next April.

FALLAcIES, A PRACTICAL STUDY IN LOGIC.
The world owes to Aristotle the invention
or discovery of the syllogism, the great detec-
tor of fallacies, and the test OF sound conclu-
sions. For nearly two thousand years Arts
totle was without rival and has never had an
equal, either in this particular department of
science, or as the crowned prince and leader of
those who teach and of those who would
learn. So he appeared to Dante, and SO he
| continues to this day. Nevertheless, most VAL
liable contributions and additions have been
| made to the science by Whately, Mill and
Balm, in English, not to speak of German To-
gicians and philosophers like Kant, Fichte and
others.
The purpose of the volume in hand is to aid
in the detection of fallacies. Prof. Sidgwick
of Ovens College, Manchester, England, is the
author, and he has written work of perma-
nent value.
The nature of falacies is often subtle, diff
cult to discover and hard to expose. Their
number, too, is legion. They crop up all along
the path Of the student, and must therefore, be
carefully and perpetually guarded against. AS
Whately says, "If concentrated like other poi
sons they could be surely and quickly elected.
but as lucy are usually OluuSed 1ngen10uSly
and insidiously through whole volumes their
detection becomes conespondingly difficult
Every lover of truth, therefore, will be CRATE
full to our author, who renders valuable aid in
ferreting out deceptive and dangerous soph-
isms.
One of the most frequent forms OF fallacy,
is embodied in the statement of an incontesta-
BILE general principle in terms calculated to
convey particular conclusion by no means
incontestable Even the most careful and cam
did reasoners are not free from flaws in reason
ing Bishop Butler stands at the head of this
class. Yet he says, "The slightest preponder
ance of probability warrants us to act on il,
and that many have to act on evidence less
than this, Q, less than the least or slightest
which OF course is less than nothing.
Another fruitful source of error, perhaps the
most fruitful, is the use of the same
words in different senses. For example, how
often we wrangle over the question whether
this or that person is great man, the whole
dispute turning on our different conception, or
definition Of great man. /. 8. what constitutes
greatness. About this particular person, We

Judge Locke of the United States District
Court of Florida seems to be person of
great versatility. Not only for the last
twelve years has he been presiding over a
Federal court at a salary of So 500 year but
he has also been dealing in leaf tobacco
without United States license, running a
wrecking schooner and himself decreeing
her salvage, operating as note shay and
usurer and making occasional in.ursions
into politics and securing the election of his
fayorites by bribery and intimidation. At
least he is accused of doing all these things
in petition for his impeachment which has
been presented to the House of Representa-
