was the charge that he was an
aristocrat in his very nature
and in social matters he felt
himself to be far above the masses
It was said that among the American
hating aristocracy he would find most
congenial friends and jovial companions.
All this was said because his social stand
ing was high, and he commanded the re-
spect of all, without regard to politics.
The Republican press has been charging
it against the Democrats that they care
far more for social standing than for
Democratic principles, as though respect
ibility were a disgrace while dirt and
demacogism were merits. The San Fran
cisco Post has been taking up the theme
and has put to it the variations which
best suited it. The Alta has now taken
lid the Post. and in its issue of last Thurs
day, has the following to say on thigh
social standing" as qualification for Office
It has the proper tone and right view OF
the matter, and will meet with the ap-
proval of all men of sense, no matter
what their politics.
''The Postof last evening, inrasping the
Alta in a playful sort of way, says:
''The Alta is, we believe, Democratic
journal. Is it Democratic to make high
social standing one of the qualifications
for Office in this republic, where all men
are supposed to be equal ?" We do not
know whether it be democratic, or aris-
tocratic, or snobbish to make high social
standing a qualification for Office, but we
do say that high social standing is good
quality in any man, and that it is a strong
safeguard in public life, as it is in private
life. Social standing is closely akin to
self-respect, without which no man can
possess character, and without which
no man is fit to be entrusted
with public affairs. We most certainly
DENY that all men are equal in this
republic. We know they are not, and
we are glad of it. We may all be equal
before the law-doubtful, however-but
we are not equal in our rights to public
confidence. The man of "high social
standing" may prove untrustworthy, but
he is not nearly SO likely to do so as
the man with no standing. We are
always glad when gentleman attains
official position, and We are alwayt mad
when trickster, loafer, hummer or
man of no reputation succeeds to office.
We know the Post feels precisely as we
do in this matter, but it simply wanted
to remind us of its power to chit out. "
We know the Post is about, sloshing
around, and we intend to be discreet"

SOCIAL STANDING.

Since President Cleveland has been
the Chief Magistrate of the nation he has
made some appointments to foreign
missions, and all the appointees have
held high social positions. The first
among those nominated was Mr.. Phelps,
of Vermont, as Minister TO the Court OF
st. James. Many charges were made
against him on various grounds, such as
being a Southern sympathizer and a
gross maligner of President Lincoln.
Following this, and more heinous still,

soclAelLlTY IN SOCIETY.
An Address bY Rabbl kohn al Temple
Emanuel


The audience that assembled ia Temple
Emanuel last evening TO listen 10 Rabbi
Bernard Cohn's lecture On the subject,
'Sociability the Only PFeseryer of Society"
was reasonably large, considering the state
VI the weather.
1he speaker prefaced his lecture by read
ing, a. a lesson. an extract from standard
suthof upol the origin, impulses and benefits
Of society. lie began by giving the usual
de6nition 10 the word society and denomi-
mated il a. the most beneficial system be-
slowed BY the Great Spirit Of the Universe
on man. A secluded man, one who shuts
himself of from association with his fellows,

human being. SOcisbility Is an influential
director IN human affairs and will be till time
is no more. It's full benefits cannot be
described. Through II man has been elevated
physically and spiritually, and all the human
race eau bOast OF IN scientific and spiritual
advantages are the outcome of sociability.
The history of destroyed nations showed
that their fall was due 10 seltishness, caste
separations and the consequent lack of socia-
bility. Nations and society were terms TO
be used ANONYMOUSLY, the larger one was
bat an aggregation OF the other, and the
same principles OF strength or weak
ness prevailed in both. The fate Of
the two great ancient empires,
Rome and Greece established the fact that
sslfshness and the inequality OF Caste, of
bond and free, master and slave, high and
low born, had wrought their ruin and torn
their forms of government into fragments
which the petty princes could not unite
again. IN the history of Israel, the govern
ment erected by Moses, was a government
founded upon sOciability, in which the peo-
pie were kings and priests-kings in the gov
ernment of their individual selves, and
priests of righteousness. Afterward by the
pre-eminence of classes misfortunes oc-
CARED, but Israel was preserved by the OBJ
servance of the principles established by its
founders.
The speaker inculcated the idea that in the
society of the temple or church, there should
be greater sociability between the members
and their families, and deprecated the at
tention given to material speculation rather
than spiritual. lie regretted the absence of
many for whom his lecture was especially
designed.
The lecture was an able disquisition upon
the subject selected, and was impre ssively
delivered. The subject of the lecture for
next Friday evening was announced as
Universal Charity; Cardinal Doctrine of
Judaism"

cred into the operating room and placed III
an easy chair with table attachment, on
which are jars, brushes, sponges, files and
various little ivory implements. The finger
tips are first soaked in cologne water, then
covered alternately with n salve and powder.
Then follows the polishing. filing and shap-
