DestrnctIon q PrlYate Property.

Our attention has been called Of
late to the partial destruction of the
board fence enclosing the lot and man
sion of the late Commodore Voorhees,,
on Duke of Gloucester street, oppo.
site st. Mary's Church. The grounds
of this property contain many value
able fruit and shade trees, besides a
quantity of rare flowers, shrubbery,
&C., all of which are left at the mercy
of the marauders ofthe neighborhood.
Whole pannels of fencing have been
torn down and carried of, leaving the
grounds almost public park. Be-
sides, many of the window lights
have been made the target of the
boys sling-shot. Such wonton acts
of vandalism are intoIerabIe, and the
guilty persons should be discover
ed. and severely punished. This is one
of the results that follow idleness, and
brings to mind very forcibly the old
adage-"An idle head is the devils
workshop" There is q city ordi.
nance, we believe, prohibiting the de.
facing or destruction OF property, and
our police should see to its enforce
ment.

THERE seems to be an unusual
number of wretched Grim. con. cases
detailed 10 the daily press at the pres.

ing and calculated to do great injury
to pure minded girls who peruse
them. If the newspapers will print
these details it is almost impossible
to prevent girls from reading them.
The Townson Journal" thinks there
ought to be severe law against pub
fishing such details and we fully agree

MONDAY

SERMON To YOUNG MEN. At
the Presbyterian Church yester-
day morning, the Rev. Robert
III. Williams, pastor, preached
an impressive sermon to young
men, including a large class of
Naval Cadets who attend the
church with great regularity
during their academic course.
Some of these young men will
shortly leave for a three months
cruise, and large number of
those who are graduates will
leave the Academy for all time.
The sermon was particularly ap-
plicable to the occasion, and was
an able and impressive dis
course. In his closing remarks,
which were addressed more par
ticularly to the cadets, he said ):
I'm closing my sermon today,
| am conscious of the fact that
am speaking to some of the
young men of this congregation
for the last time.
'Some have been in attend
ance throughout their academi-
cal course, and now go forth to
other scenes, and will not be
found in the places usually oc-
cupied by them. Others will be
away for several months, with
the expectation of returning
again.
I'VE desire all to remember
that in these farewell words to-
day, we begged you to form
the noble purpose to live for
Christ.
MAY those of you who have
taken Christ to be your Saviour
continue to show to your COM
rades that you are upon the side
of Christ.
MAY those of you who are not
christians resolve, this very day,
to seek an interest in Christ.
Do not forget the instructions
you have received in your homes
and in the house of God.
"You will be thrown among
scenes where you will need the
direction and comfort of this
holy religion. The life to which
you have devoted yourself
is especially trying to the
Christian character. Much of
the time you will be away from
the restraints Of home, and be-
yond the hallowing influence of
God S house. But trying as that
life is, many examples Of earn
est piety in the navy of Great
Britain and the United States
show that it is possible to live a
Christian life amid the scenes
through which yon will be called
to pass.
''Now, in youth, when You are
Just entering npon this respon-
slble and perilous calling, is the
time to form the settled purpose
to live a christian life.
ssIhen, too, as officers Of the
navy Of christian nation you
may do much in awakening and
cultlvating respect for the gov
ernment which you represent.
IN settling disputes among other
powers, not merely by violent
but by peaceful means. and III
encouraging the church of
Christ IN the lands you may
visit.
IF as christian you 90 forth
to these noble duties, Ne have
no means Of ofestimating the influ-
ence for good you may have.
But 1T you should never be
called to high, distinguished po-
sitions, remember that the light
Of christian example may shine
anywhere, and be means of
showing others the way 10
heaven. The christian will not
be without encouragement and
comfort in the most trying per
iods Of life.
Now, this day, resolve, Gods
grace assisting, to live 3 christ
ian life not only for the good
yon may do here ON earth. but
that you may have 4 hop8 0f en-
lerlng upon d better. noblar life
beyond The grave

REoPENING or TIE

Iowa's democratic convention has
succeeded in stirring up an exceediSg]y
interesting family row by its greenback
combination. Its platform declares
against prohibition, and its greenback
candidate for lieutenant governor, E.
81. Gillette, is pronounced prohibition.
ist. Language like the following, which
is u resolution from the Dubuque
county democrats, Is heard from all
parts of the state:
Resoloed, That it is the sense of the
democrats of Dubuque county, in con-
vention assembled, that while we view
with favor any combination, that cen be
honorably made, that will assist in de-
feating the republican ring in the state
of Iowa at the coming election, yet ",
regard the proposed fusion with the
greenbackers on state ticket with E.
81. Gillette as candidate for lieutenant
governor as unwise and injudicioos, and
that in our judgment the issue in the
coming election is the repeal of the OBJ.
,noxious prohibition laws, and the com
ing democratic state convention should
pledge the party to the immediate re-
peal of the same. and place upon the
state ticket only such candidates al
heartily favor such repeal.

There is one faot which alone should
induce every tax payer in the south half
of Dakota to favor and industrlously Ia
Dor for the division of Dakota on the
46th parallel. It is this: The North
ern Pacific railroad corporation is to-day
the controlling element in our territory.
1t is power with which individuals and
communities cannot successfully cope.
1t controls our legislation to-day and
will continue to control it, to the disad.
vantage of the people and to it's own ad.
vantage. There is nothing of import.
ance which this corporation covets that
does not fall into its clutches. Owning
q half interest in nearly one quarter of
the soil of our territory, it pays no taxes
for the maintenance of our government
and our institutions. While it absolute.
iy dictates legislation it looks to the
wealthy south to pay the expenses of
our common existence. For this reason it
opposes division. 1t needs our end of
the territory for purposes of revenue.
The public has not yet forgotten how
the agents of this corporation, during
the legislative session of 1888, inserted
in railroad bill, after it had passed
both houses of the legislature, clause
exempting all railroad lands in the
territory from taxation and how their
tool, Governor Ordway, signed the bill
witt full knowledge Of the fraudulent
alteration. At;the last session of the leg
islature bill was introduced
repeating this bare faced ini-
guilty. 1t passed the council,
but in the granger house Northern
Pacific influence secured its defeat, and
the vast possessions of that corporation
remain untaxed, while the farmer who
digs his dollars out of the soil con-
tributes his proportion to make up the
revenue deficiency caused by this ex.
emption. There may be men in southern
Dakota who are opposed to separation
from the section which contains the
Northern Pacific possessions and it's
managers. If there are they are justly
entitled to the suspicion of being in the
pay of that corporation.
The maintenance of this grasping
dictator may be luxury to the south,
but it is an expensive one. As time
goes on the power of the Northern
Pacific will increase. It is now in con.
dition where it takes everything it
wants, but its wants will multiply and
by and by we OF the south will find that
our elephant is eating US out of
house and home. It has taken
the capital of all Dakota by the most
shameless corruption and has retained il
against the will of the people by means
yet buried in mystery. It has duplica.
ted all the institutions of the south on
its own soil and has built and maintains
them on southern money, Our escape
from the grasp of this consciencelesf
monopoly Is through the avenue OF divi-
sion on the 46th parallel and the south
ern man who opposes this proposition
is traitor to the interests of the people
among whom he lives.
