WOMEN ACCOUNTA NTS.

Although hundreds of women hold
positions Of financial trust in the coun-
try, we have yet to hear of one of them
being guilty of embezzlement or defal-
cation. The evidence clearly sustains
the position Of those who believe
that women are qualified, morally
physically and intellectually, for the
handling Of money i'll stores or in
banks. General Spinner, who first in
troduced women into the United States
Treasury, left on record a striking ties.
timonial to the efficiency and integrity
of the sex, and no one ever had a bet
ter opportunity to study tie question
than he, who at one time had 1000
women under his direction, engaged
chiefly in handling money. He testi-
| fled that they count more accurately
and rapidly than men that their ability
to detect counterfeits proved to be SUI
perior to almost every test that they
were, without an exception, honest, and
were invariably more careful and
painstaking in their work.
Complaints of inaccuracy and care.
lessness on the part of men were made
frequently during General Spinner's
administration of the United States
Treasury, but such complaints against
lady clerks were few. In case of
disputes as to genuineness of money,
General Spinner invariably took the
judgment of Miss Grandin, who was
for long time employed in his bureau.
Although there are several thousand
women employed by the Government
as clerks, accountants, postmistresses
and in other capacities, not one has
ever proved unfaithful to her trust.

acity and for other reasons, but II ever

DEMOCRATIC LIGHTS.

They have in Congress two great
Democratic lights from Wisconsin
Congressman Deuster, of Milwaukee,
and Congressman Sumner, of Wauke-
sha. Both of these men have COM
posed long pieces which they call
speeches. Although it is said they
were never delivered, they have OBJ
tanned leave to have them printed in
the Congressional Record with the
speeches of other members. Neither
of these two compositions treat par
ticularly of the subjects which their
titles express. Deuster's piece is par
ticularly long, occupying several pages
Summers is also quite long. The evil
dent purpose of both Of these Con-
gressmen is to secure the solid support
of the liquor interest for reelection
next fall. Sumner labors to convince
his Democratic constituents that
spirituous liquors have a civilizing in
fluence; he boldly challenges the as
sumption that alcoholic liquors are
Injurious to the human system" This
redoubtable Mr.. Sumner goes on tc
say. :" / feel safe in assuming thai

the arts and sciences. most dis
tinguished in war, and accomplished

cation and enlightenment, have Away.
been and still are most notorious fol
their general and free use of alcoholic
liquors" The logic of MI. Sumner is
the more Intoxicating liquor the PEG
pie guzzle down, the more civilized
and enlightened they grow. We vii
not stop to quote from Mr.. Deuster'
Iprinted talk in the Record; suffice it t,
say, he comes boldly to the defence o

well qualified for the Presidential
Office: the choice between them is
more question of availability than of
craftsmanship Let the selection
from the candidates now prominently
mentioned be which it may. the party
will cheerfulIv acqniesce and fall into
line.
The outlook for the success of the
Republican party is far more promis-
ing now than year ago. The unfor.
tunate divisions, particularly in the
great states Of New York and Penn
sylyania, have been bridged over;
there are now no seriously disturbing
elements in the party in other states.
On the chief political issue before the
country-the protection of home in
dustries -Republicans in all parts of
the Union are generally agreed; that
is now the uppermost question in both
political parties. On the question of
a protective tariff the Democratic
party seems hopelessly divided. Fifty
seven Democrats i'll the House OF
Representatives at Washington have
virtually declared in favor of a protec-
tive tariff, and all efforts to drive
them from their position by the ma
jority of the party in Congress has
thus far proved entirely unavailing
The situation Of the Democratic party
is embarrassing; the party dare not
adopt platform in convention main
tanning silence on the tariff, nor de-
claration of principles avowing free
trade, nor Of favoring protection. II
is believed that the only policy fol
that party will be the adoption of a
platform on the subject of the tariff
equiyocally expressed, and capable Of
any construction the Democratic
voters are pleased to put upon it
That may satisfy those of the part!

FARMERS AND FRUIT.

The season is now at hand for the
planting of fruit trees. Although last
year was not an encouraging one for
fruit growing in this county, there
should be no relaxation of effort to in
crease the planting of fruit trees the
present season. There has seldom if
ever been an over-production Of fruit of
any kind in this locality, nor is it pro-
bable there will be in coming years.
The experience of the farmers of
Kenosha and adjoining counties has
been sufficient to demonstrate what
varieties of apples and other fruit are
best adapted to the climate here.
Fruit should be more abundantly
raised, not alone for marketable profit,
but for the reason of its being health
full for food. The most distinguished
physicians have c0unseled the eating
of fruit as being promotive Of
health. The Improved methods for
canning and preserving fruit enable
families to enjoy this luxury the year
around. Besides this, methods for
growing small fruits and grapes are
becoming better understood with each
succeeding year. Every farmer should
have fruit department on his prem
Uses carefully managed.

The Rev. DR.. Hoyt asks the publi-
to believe the following: Elm San
Francisco, Cal, l saw, near the water
works, a large tank, and in that tank
was fine, large California trout. It
was very tame, and the clerks used to
catch flies and hold them over the water
and the trout would come up to the
surface and take the fly from their
fingers. One day an idle clerk placed a
nice, fat fly upon the hook of bent pin
and captured the trout. The clerk
released him and enjoyed the joke; but,
would you believe it. after that day
twenty hotel clerks could stand around
the tank and that fish would take flies
from every one of them except the man
who played the loaded fly on him.
That's easily accounted for. The trout
under considera ton is first-cousin to
the hen that laid an egg in Bee cher's
hat.

NEED OF CRIMINAL REFORM

The newspaper press throughout the
country has spoken in no equivocal
language since the Cincinnati riot of
the necessity of reform in our crimi-
nal courts. The failure to convict the
worst of criminals has become alarm
ingly common. The trial by jury,
when originally instituted, was regard
ed one of the safeguards of the peo-
pies rights; in these later times trial by
jury frequently defeats the ends OF
justice. 1t is more often the criminal s
friend, to which he looks for deliver
ance from the punishment which the
law attaches to his wrong-doing. The
expert criminal lawyer and the modern
jury are the guilty prisoners hope for
escape, no matter how strong the evil
dence against him. There is no pro-
per law regulating the selection of
jurors; there are often among them
ignorant men, who know nothing of
the right construction,of law and evil
dence; yet such jurors, regardless of
the instructions of the court Judges,
take upon themselves the prerogatiye
of constituting law and testimony to
suit themselves. If there were some
statute prescribing the qualification of
those who are summoned and allowed
to sit as jurors, trial by jury would be
less Objectionable.
The popular Indignation of the peo-
pie who take the law into their own
hands does not arise from the want of
courts; there is no lack of judicial
tribunals, but it is because the courts
fail to discharge the duties for which
they are constituted; it is because of
the frequent occurrences, especially in
the large cities, of the lax method of
dealing with criminals; the chances
are in favor of the culprits, and against
the yindication Of law. The legal ma
chinery has become out of gear and
ceased to be reliable. The expert
criminal lawyer for a fee undertakes
the clearance of the most notorious
thief, forger, robber, adulterer or MUIR
derer, and still retains his standing in
good society. The time is not far off
when the criminal lawyer cannot ex-
onerate himself by pleading custom
the moral sentiment of the age will
not justify the defence of crime COM
mitted in broad daylight known to all
and doubted by none. The chief cause
of the late Cincinnati riot was the re-
fusal Of the jury to award the full PEN
atty of the law to a murderer who
made no concealment of his crime, but
confessed it. To attack the old and
once reverenced jury system seems to
many almost sacrilegious, but what
may have been its benefits in afore
time, it is not adapted to the civiliza-
ton of the age.

PRESIDENTIAL OUTLO0K,

The situation of the several candl
dates who have been most prominent
ly mentioned on the Republican side
the past few months remains apparent
ly unchanged, or, in other words, the
relative strength Of each continues
without alteration. While new names
are frequently suggested. they do not
appear to attract more than limited
notice. The number of candidates for
the highest office i'll the gift OF the peo-
pie is narrowed down to about half
dozen; most of the others may be re-
garded as scattering. To speak in
political parlance, dark horse" may
be developed before the Sd of June
next, but that is hardly probable; it is
only a little over seven weeks before
the national nominating convention
will assemble. THERE'S apparently no
danger that an unworthy man will be
in the Republican conven-
ton. All the prominent men now
spoken of are of good reputation. and

EXTRAORDINARY BLIND NAN.

| EXTRAORDINARY BLIND MAN.
A correspondent of the Chicago
Inter Ocean contains the following
see by the papers that Walter L.
Campbell has been nominated as the
Republican candidate for Mayor of
that thriving city, Youngstown, Ohio.
If he is elected, and suppose he will
be, he will be the first blind man to
hold an executive office of the sort, and
he will be Mayor of whom the Young
stown people maG be proud. Although
he lost his eyes by an accident when
only years of age, Mr.. Campbell is a
college graduate, and man of great
learning and ability. His memory is
remarkable, and the facts he has stored
up in his head is treasure that any
man would value. He is an editor by
profession, and uses typewriter to
prepare his copy. He has done
good deal of excellent literary work,
and is the author of a work ON politi-
cal economy. Although absolutely
sightless, he goes about the world as
much and as readily as if he had two
good eyes, and has never met with an
accident. He knows the streets of
New York and Chicago as we'll as he
knows the Lords Prayer, and can find
a restaurant of hotel dining-room
with amazing alaricty.

The following outspoken words on
the situation are from the Chicago
Journal:
mo man in his senses will Justify
mob law, but evey one can see from
what has inst occurred at Cincinnati
what we are coming to in our large
cities, unless there is a radical and
speedy reform in the administration oil
justice. Last year there were more
murderers executed under the decree of
Judge Lynch in the United States than
were hanged under the sentence of the
regularly-constituted courts. The Jury
system as now managed is simply a
cunning device by which twelve of the
stupidest men to be found are allowed
to stand between the criminal and the
prison or the gallows. This system
must either be abolished or reformed.
The law must be changed which fixes a
premium on ignorance and stupidity as
a qualification for a juryman.
And it must be made disgraceful for
any member of the legal profession to
use his professional skill and ability to
aid a man whom he knows to be guilty
of great crime to escape punishment
