Trying to walk with one foot in
the grave does not help us to get

Neither bread and raiment, nor
even religion, are found in the grave.
Fretting about things which can

your cook for giving you bad Coffee

More about County Jails.

A couple of weeks since, we had occasion to
call attention to the county Jail system of our
state, suggesting certain needed reforms
therein, and, in the same connection, we
inspectors which embodied views similar to
our own.
Speaking of the reports of the jail inspect
ors of the various counties of the state, Mr.
L. l.. Barbour, of the state board of cor
rections and charities, says: 'The report re-
ceived from Van Buren, county was model
one, and will be printed by the stase board
and sent TO all who are officially interested in
the management of jails."
Judge Mills noticed the report made to
him by the inspectors, by making and filing
an order with the county clerk. After MAX
ing some comments on the condition of the
Jail, ETC., the judge proceeds II am not dis
posed 10 think that ii is wise to make jails
palaces. They should be secure, clean and
comfortable, and adapted to heseparate con-
finement of the different grades of convicts
and suspects to be detained in them, but If
this we're done, good results could not be ex-
pected as long as lax discipline and laziness
is permitted. Idleness is one of the efficient
causes of crime. Industrious men seldom
commit crime. / fully believe in the old
saying that the Devil finds mischief still for
idle hands to do Prisoners should not be
allowed to play cards in Jail or indulgs in
the use of profane language, to tell immoral
stories, or dance and sing TO the accompani-
ment of fiddles or other musical instruments
therein, as am informed by the report of
the Jail inspectors has been the case at times
in this county. Silence should be enforced.
Good reading matter should be furnished.
Cleanliness should be insisted upon, IL is
next to Godliness. Habits of industry should

DURING the campaign of 1884, Tom Hen
bricks and other democratic stump-speakers
had great deal TO say about the vast sums
of money that were being piled up in the q. S.
treasury, stating that there was $4O0,0OO,0Oo
so accumulated, and that the same ought to
be applied on the payment of the public
debt. The fact remained, however, that un-
der republican administration, the debt of
the Nation was being rapidly extinguished;
the payment thereon being at the rate of
from $SO,OOO,OOO to $lOo,O0OOo0 per year.
The democrats have been running the gov
ernment for over year; the money in the
public treasury has increased to almost $780,
100000 and not a dollar of debt has
been paid. True, the public debt statements
show reduction each month, but the state
ments are misleading, the apparent reduction
being the difference between cash on hand
and the outstanding unpaid debt. There is
more money in the treasury but not bond
has been called in or paid since Grover
Cleveland has occupied the presidential chair.
II will be long time, at this rate, before the
debt is extinguished. Not only are the peo-
pie oppressed by the continual payment of
interest on bonds that should be paid and
Cancelled, but every day lessons their ability
to pay, for this money that is being continu-
ally piled up in the treasury, comes but from
one source, the channels of trade and COM
msrce. In other words every dollar that is
nsedlessly locked up, instead of being ap-
piled in payment of the public debt, is a
contraction of the currency to just that extent.
The past history of the democratic party, as
exemplifed by their management of the ef-
fairs of the Nation in former times, shows
that it is incapable of managing the finan-
cial affairs of the government in way that
Will be most beneficial for the people, and
the management of the past year affords no
reasonable ground to expect better things in
the future.

We ARE in receipt of letter from our old
friend, John Knowles of Durango, Col. John
appears to be enjoying himself, but like other
Colorado men, he has become infatuated on
the question of free coinage of the "buzzard
dollar Johnny, we cant see it just in that
light, and so can't "boom it," The NoRTHER-
NER believes in Stree coinage" of silver, but
il wants to see one hundred cents worth
of silver in dollar. We have no doubt that
"free coinage" of the eighty-fve cent dollar
would prove probable to bullion owners
who, under the operation of such law,
could have their wealth gratuitously increas-
ed from fifteen to twenty per cent. We can
not understand how the government is under
any greater obligation TO thus add to the
wealth of the mine owner than it is to do the
same thing for the agriculturist or manufac-
turer. In our opinion the true solution
OF the silver question is to make dollar
worth dollar, and then make the coinage
as free as that of gold. But this method
seems to be too simple to meet the approba-
ton of some of our great statesmen.

OK SATURDAY last, the supreme court OF
Illinois rendered decision overruling the
motion for new trial in the famous Joe
Mackin case, and sustaining the conviction
in the court below. Joe will have to serve
his term in Joliet, much to the satisfaction
of all good citizens, not particularly because
he has merited the punishment he will justly
receive, but because the decision OF the court
vindicates the purity of the ballot box, and
establishes the fact that such nefarious at
tempt to thwart the will of the people, as
was made by Mackin, cannot go unpunished,
even when made by criminals who stand in
high places The very existence of our free
institutions depends upon pure, ana un-
trammeled ballot, without which our govern
