BOOMING THE SACK.

We would not like to see the
Senate OF the United States abol.
ished. but it might be made more
in sympathy with the people, and
be less autocratic. It is reproach
to the people and especially to
their creatures, the Legislature,
that unworthy or rich men without
brains are sent to the Senate.-Rev-
ellie.
If the newspapers Of the State
would unite in ignoring the preten-
siops of candidates whose only
qualifications are embodied in their
sacks, such would find it uphill
work to make the rifle. As it is,
a considerable portion of the Ne
Yada press is actively engaged IN
booming ineligible and incompetent
millionaires, and endeayoring to
rope them into the Senatorial can
vass. The newspapers are largely
responsible for the condition OF
things complained of by our Austin
Observation-Disclosures.
If the press of the State would
combine against some one of these
vulgar and worthless fellows who
purchase their seats in the Senate,
he could be easily knocked out.
We would like to see the Republi-
can journals begin the war on

ACCONNODAT EQUALIZ-
Frs,
Frs,

Our Board of Equalization is
composed of three venerable men,
saws the Phoebe (Nevada) Record,
and that Notwithstanding that their
youth has fed, and the silvery locks
appear amidst their hair, they yet
retain the colossal beauty, for which
they are known throughout the
land and are all admirers of the fair
and beautiful, being susceptible to
the arts of the gentle sex, and the
ladies being aware Of the weakness
Of the members of the Board avail
ed themselves Of the advantages
thus proffered and had their taxes
reduced to a mere nominal sum.
Brother Ronnow, the Chairman of
the Board is large hearted man,
following the dictates of his religion
he loves anything that wears a pet
ticoat, and when a lady would ap-
pear before the Board and state
her case, the Chairman, with a be-
nign smile oyerspreading his beau
tiful face, and bowling with his
right eye-lid to the lady, he would
suggest to the members the proprl-
ETY. and justice of reducing the
lady's taexs one-half. Mr.. House,
not wishing to be outdone in gal
lantry toward the lady by the Chair
man, would suggest a reduction OF
two-thirds of the taxes, while MIR.
Husbands, who owing to his ex-
IRENE loyeliness, is pet with the
ladies, considered it great outrage
that in a free land like ours the
ladies should be compelled to pay
taxes, and as his heart knew no
limit in its magnaninity to the
ladies', he would recommend the
entire Punishment from the Assess
er's book of all taxes levied against
the lady. The matter was gener-
ally settled on Mr.. Houses sugges-
ton. If a certain merchant had
only thought of it, he could have
borrowed a dress from some maiden
covered his face with a veil, and
presented himself before the Board
the chances are ten to one that they
would have reduced his taxes in
stead of doubling them on him, as
they did do.

"Iu the Line OF Duty,"

Judge Neal, solicitor of the treasury, has
given an opinion In regard to the proper con-
struction of the phrase sin the line OF duty"
as contained in sections and of the act Of
May 4, 1889, providing means to promote the
efficiency of the life saving service. The so.
licitor says he is OF opinion that by the phrase
sin the line of duty" congress intended that
the performance of duty must have the rela-
tion of cause or consolation, mediate or i'm.
mediate, to the wound, tho casualty, the in
jury, or the disease which produced the
disability or DEATH and that the right is de:
terminate on the question whether In any OF
the possible conditions of the service the
cause of the disability or death was appurte-
nunt TO, dependent upon, or connected with
acts within or acts without the line of duty.
He therefore holds that the benefits provided
in section 7 extend to all persons disabled by
reason OF injury received or disease contracted
while on duty In the service. lie also holds
that the benefits Of section are applicable to
the widow and children under 16 years of age
OF keeper or member of a life saving crew
who, attar leaving the service, dies In consc-
quencc of injuries or disease contracted in the
service In the line of duty.

The Feast OF Purim.

with the Jewish festival of Purim, to
be celebrated this year on March l, tho
alliance Israolte Universelle" will
have completed the twenty-fifth year of
its existence. Founded by the three
eminent Frenchmen, Albert Cohn, Solo
mon Munk, and Adolphe Cremieux, it
consists of numerous branch societies
throughout the world, with Paris as its
center, having for its object the protection
aud elevation Of the Jewish people in
general and the education Of the Jewish
youths of tho Orient destitute OF secular
knowledge, in particular. In this latter
capacity more especially the society has
accomplished vast amount of good. A
great number of schools have been estab-
iished in the east for literary, agricultural,
and mechanical studios, to which even
the highest Turkish officials prefer to
send their children for instruction. The
alliance has proved powerful and most
beneficial factor for the promotion Of the
welfare of the Jewish race; and its ap-
preaching anniversary, also in this
country, will undoubtedly be made an oc-
caslon for collecting funds and founding
additional branch societies.
