OUR eigbt.page morning contemporary
has developed into the veriest fault-inder.
Nothing seems to suit it. Somebody is
constantly doing something that displcascs
it, and its grumbling fills daily many col
umns Of its space. We are glad to see the
interests of our people watched over 50
zealously by so able and lynx-eyed guar
dian as our e-p. neighbor. But, really, we
wonder that it has not long before this sug-
gested to the only official who has not dis
pleased it-and the one only who can really
remedy all the evils it complains of-that a
change in our District Government is i'm
peratively demanded. We mean, of course,
President Arthur, whose personal organ it
is, if it be anything. We hope our neighbor
will not allow false modosty to longer de-
ter it from having the personnel of our local
government changed to suit it.

IT is to be hoped that the trial now COM
mencing will end the Kilbourn-Thom hompson
matter. Mr.. Kilbourn is clearly eutitlod
TO a verdict. The Supreme Court and two
jurics have said so. Mr. Kilbourn has
shown himself determined claimant. He
knows himself wropged, and will not rest
until the wrong has been acknowledged
and righted. All believers in personal
liberty hope he will obtain verdict that
will compensate him for the time and ex-
penso of the litigation and reimburse him
for ruined business.
