Overhead Wires Causing Many Deaths
From the Evening Telegraph.

FIoH tue Evening Telegraph.
The thing that appears most plain in the
terrible loss Of life in the fire at Cincinnati ves
terday is the fact that the network of telegram
and telephone wires surrounding the burning
building made it impossible to rescue the
persons in deadly peril. Without that obstruc-
ton every life might have been saved. And
that Is the condition Of peril investing multi.
tude OF properties in all our cities
The thing that happened yesterday in
cincinnati Is liable, is very likely, to
city and 1t is misuse OF lancna1o
to call such tradegies accidents, Being
70 that extent preventible, the response
wires must be put under ground: il
u shameful abuse of power TO keen them
where they are standing menace to life aud

How Do Arabs Live without Much
Water?
From Chambers Journal.

How is it that Arabs contrive to live in the
waterless deserts of that much-talked-o region?
They are, to begin with, abstemious in their
habits, and know every crevice and hollow in
the hills where water will collect. They regard
this fluid more, perhaps, in the light of luxury
than as necessity, and use it with wonderful
economy. They would never think of wasting
1t on the exterior OF their bodies, and consider
that once in As hours is often enough to replen-
ish the inner man. Gen. Colston tells us that
be offered them, but would often be refused
with the remark that the visitor had drunk
yesterday. By cultivating this habit Of abste
miOusness they are able to cover immense dis
tances, which would be impossible for Euro
pean, unless he were accompanied by baggage
animals.

life is infinitely worth livingr' A faith, this.
which looks into poorhouses and idiot asylums
and penltentlaries, ay, and into the darkness of
great cities by night, and still believes in hui
mainly. reclaimable. however marred or fallen
ana and Infinitely worth saving. A faith, this,
which contefnplates the catastrophe of moral
obliquity and spiritual suicide: of the mole and
the bat life OF thousands OF us, of the leprous
spawns OF human beings that are constantly
thrown upon the shores of life only To contami-
nate and curse-and yet which says, with Long
fellow:
II believe that as all ages
Every human heart is:
That IN even savage bosoms
There are longinss, warnings, STRINGS.
That the feeble hands and helpless
Cropping blindly in the darkness
Peach Gods right hand In the darkness,
And are lifted up and strengthened"
This is q most happy faith, and one most
needful if we would maintain a hopeful and ex-
Pectant attitude toward humanity. Such, in
deed, Is our only proper attitude, yet If belief
were bounded by finite vision, it could never
be maintained.

HIGH LICENSE.

In another column appears an address
from Il committee of citizens in favor of
high license. Two years ago we took up
this subject and presented ii with such
vigor as we could command. Since then the
system has been made State policy by
one of the chief commonwealth of the
Union, and has been made part of the
economic system of great number of
towns and cities. 1t is a right principle,
and its projection means nothing but good
for the city. 1t ought to be adopted at
once by our local legislature and at once
enforced. 1t is question addressing itself
with great force to the taxpayer. His
rate is now high because luxury, that
always must be such, pays less into the
fund for the support of government than
any other business of like import
ance from which a license tax is
demanded Instead of being 81 90
in Sacramento, as the address reads, our
tax rate should not exceed 20 cents. The
direct way to reduce it is to put the burden,
in greater part, where it belongs. We do
not propose at this time to enter upon
discussion Of the reasons for high license
which rest upon other than a financial
basis. But we pause to say that these
reasons are cogent and numerous They
embrace the testimony of experience of
other communities which have tested the
whole matter; they embrace the questions
of good order in the city, the elimination
of the low places where the vicious con-
sort, deviltry is Matched. and rot-gut
whisky is dealt out to poison the poor.
They embrace the questions of revival of
industry, improvement of the city in many
ways, the invitation to investment and the
general prosperity of the people. This jour

WHO WE'RE Chilly.

During the Ohio election good deal
was said about the participation of Repub-
licans in the gross election frauds A
Committee Of One Hundred was ap-
pointed to investigate the outrageous per-
version of the registry laws and the glar-
ing infringements upon the rights of
voters. The chairman of the Executive
Committee of that Committee of One
Hundred, Captain w. P. Anderson, at a
recent meeting of the main body, was
called to the chair, when he took occasion
to say:
l have voted the Democratic ticket for over
twenty years have always been Democrat,
and at the last election voted straight Demo-
cratic ticket With this record, after thor
ough and impartial investigation, extending
over the past three weeks made as member Of
the Executive Committee of this Committee of
One Hundred, l claim to be able to make a fair
statement as far as relates to the part taken by
my party in the frauds against the reg stration
and election laws, and other outrages preced-
ing and following the last election. The invest
igatiOns show that the only organized fraud
against the registration and election laws at the
last election had been within the Demo cratic
party; that the only organizations shielding
protecting tIi1 pSipItidtOIS VI anu
endeavoring to hinder and prosecute those en-
gagged in exposing and bringing their perpe-
| traitors to justice, are also within the Demo
| cratic party. Still a Democrat, and diametric-
ally opposed to the principles of the Republican
party, this Committee and its Executive Com
mittee have my entire sympathy and hearty
support
This ought to settle the question and
shut the mouths of those who continue tc
charge the Republican party with being
privy to and participant in the Ohio

MANLY PROTEST.

The correspondence of the State Depart
ments with the Governments of Italy and
Austria, relative to the rejection Of Mr..
Kelly, is very interesting. As we have be-
fore said there was some reason for the ac-
ton of the Italian Government We have
no right to expect foreign Court to re-
ceive a Minister from us, who has at any
time in his public career bitterly assailed
that Government. Quite evidently, while
Mr. Bayard and the President refuse to
consider such an objection as weighty,
nevertheless it is fair to assume that if
they did not request, they at least APP
proved the act of Mr. Kelly in resigning
his appointment. But subsequently, when
that gentleman was nominated to the Aus
trian court, and the Emperor interposed
the objection already mentioned, because
the two courts were intimately related, the
matter assumed totally different phase
Mr.. Secretary Bayard's indignation was
justifiable, and his white heat was entirely
excusable when the Imperial Government
supplemented its protest with this further
objection, that the wife of the United
States Minister is a Jewess. 1t is certainly
true, as Count kalnoky says, that the lady
would not be received by Vienna society.
But that is a matter wholly between Mr..
and Mrs. Kelly and their tastes. Mr.. Bay
ard expresses the sentiment of the Ameri-
can people, when he declares that they
will not submit to the withdrawal from the
duly commissioned Minister of this Gov.
eminent of due formal courtesy and re-
spect, because his wife, lawfully welded
according to the laws of the country he
represents, is the adherent Of certain
faith. The entire country clap hands and
cries Bravow when Mr.. Bayard says TO
Baron Schaefier
The case we are now considering is that of an
Envoy of the United States. unquestionably
lifted, whose presence near the foreign Govern
ment in question Is objected to by its agent on
the sole ground that his welded wife is alleged
to entertain a religious faith which is held by
very many of the most honored and valued citi
zens of the United States. 1t is not believed by
the President that doctrine and practice so de
structive of religious liberty and freedom of con-
science-so devoid of catholicity, and so opposed
to the spirit of the age in which we live-can
for moment be accepted by the great family of
civilized nations, nor be allowed to control their
diplomatic intercourse. Certain it is tn At it will
never, in my belief, be accepted by the people of
the United States, nor by any administration
which represents their sentiments.
