"Un Milford AngIais."

<HcoootqeFs
The real English Milford" Tho hero OF 90
many romantic and sensational novels, of
whom the race had apparently died out OF
late, has Just appeared ut Vienna. A rich
islander, who had entered a hairdresscr's
shop, noticed within Il charming young girl,
but very poorly attired, comforting with the
master OF the shop upon some matters Of bust
ness. She was Offering to part with her mag
nIhcent locks Of HAIR, for which she asked ten
iiOrins, while the hairdresser would only give
eight. At last with fearful eyes, the pretty
girl consented to the sacrifice, and the hair
dresser had already taken the scissors IN
hand, when the Englishman vented
forth laundering "HaltH' He
then asked the girl what We're the mo-
tives that compelled her to such dIsfgure-
ment and learned that her parents, who had
been in easy circumstances, were actually
without bread at the moment. The English
man, taking his purse drew forth two bank
notes and Offering them to the girl said !:
VIII you let me buy your hair?' The girl,
without even noticing the sum, at once re-
spOnded in the Affirmative, and the English
man, giving nor the money, deicately pulled
out single hair, which he rolled round his
finger, placed in his purse. and so went away.
The hair-dresser then informed the young
girl that the bank notes represented u sum Of
5000 francs, when the latter burst into tears
this time for iOy-8t the thought of her
parents being saved from misery. All Vienna
is dying with lmpatiepce TO ascertain the
name of this generous benefactOr, but he has
since disappeared entirely from the scene

1t turns out that the charges against
Aquila Jones, the Indianapolis Post
master, we're without any solid founda-
ton. Civil Service Commissioner Tho
man and Chiet Examiner Lyman worked
a week at indianapolis only to discover
that Mr.. Jones' tongue had been wag-
cling a little too freely. It did not appear
from any testimony that was obtained by
Messrs. Thoman and Lyman that Mr..

He succeeded In gaining little notorie-
ty but not of the sort that he has any rea-
son 10 be proud of. In order to excuse
himself for making boasts that he would
appoint only the men he wanted in his
office, Notwithstanding the civil service
law, he said that no wasn't very well ac-
quainted with the law, and hence might
have said something that may not have
been entirely in harmony with it.
The effort to show that MIR. Jones was
influenced TO pursue the course he did by
Mr.. Hendricks is not worth consideration.
Mr.. Hendricks is not the kind Of man
to make known his purposes from behind

He is not afraid to say openly what he

vice episode drew him, and it is pretty
certain that he will not again give his
tongue too much freedom.

The New York Erening Post gives the
position OF the Mugwumps in the New
York State contest. II says: "Many of
the Democratic regulars are counting
upon this loyalty of the Mugwumps 20
Cleveland as sufficient TO secure a.solid
Independent support TO any kind Of a
Democratic ticket which stands upon a
platform approving the administration,
but in this they are mistaken. Between
two equally good men the Mugwumps will
naturally choose the one whose election
will be regarded as an approval OF the
Presidents course, but they will not vote
for a Jefersonian Democrat nor for a
'Rockribbed Democrat no matter what
kind Of a platform he stands upon" The
best thing for the New York Democrats TO
do is to nominate their best men, harmo-
nize, and 10 in 10 win, not counting too
heavily on Mugwump votes. II they can
unite on conservative candidates who
can command the support OF the Mug
wumps, so much the better.

Making and Regulating lawyers

Making and Regulating Lawyers.
The discussion in the Georgia Bar AS
ISOLATION Of the report Of the committee
on admissions to the Bar was not only an
interesting, but profitable one. When
the ease with which lawyers have been
made in this state eyer since it was
founded is considered, it seems strange
that its lawyers have stood as high as re-
CARDS character and ability as they have.
1t has been said that a man could be-
come a lawyer in Georgia as easily as
falling OF log. The fact is that the ex-
aminatiOns of candidates for admission to
the bar are rarely as thorough as they
should be, and under the present system
Of admitting candidates 1t is hardly pos
sible that these examinations can be very
thorough. The committees on examina-
ton are composed of practicing lawyers,
whose time and minds are almost wholly
occupied by their cases during the session
of the courts, and it is not practicable for
the course of justice to be delayed more
than an hour or two while each candidate
is bsing examined in open court.
While the bar of Georgia has always
been distinguished for its high character,
it cannot be denied that many unworthy
applicants are admitted to practice In the
courts of the State every year. tits hard
ly possible that all unworthy persons
can be kept out Of the profession, no mat
I ter what barriers may be placed in their
way, and these barriers should not be of
such character as TO prevent the admis-
-. ~
ablest lawyers and most distinguished
statesmen of Georgia were admitted TO
the bar after very short course Of study.
II is probable that no matter what
amendments may be made to the present
aw and the rules OF court on this subject,
the weeding-Out process Will never be
completed at the threshold Of the profess
sion. BY far the larger number OF appli-
cants, whether up to the required stand
ard in intelligence, attainments and
worth, or not, will safely enter the portal,
there 10 become subject 20 that higher
law Of the survival of the fittest. Wheth-
er the present practice in relation TO adj
missions 10 the bar shall be changed or
not. the discussion in the Bar Association
will be productive Of good.
! IL seems OF more importance that a
higher standard OF personal and PROBES
/ sional integrity and department should
be required after persons are licensed 60
/ plead and practice law, than has hereto
fore been the case. The violation Of a
| trust, the failure to promptly pay over
money collected, instances OF neglect of a
clients interests, drunkenness, and many
other things which bring discredit on the
4 profession are too frequently passed over
/ by the courts and members Of the bar.
The law Is noble profession. and the
/ press and people should laud every effort
that is made 10 elevate and dignity IL.

! Party Harmony Not in Danger.
Senator Eustis, Of Louisiana, gets very
I little sympathy from Democratic journals
in his war on the President. His inter-
view in the New York W0rld, which was
/ published Immediately on his return from
England. was little more than what he
said Just before he started on his European
/ trip. He was more outspOken, perhaps,
I in his last interview, but he did not
succeed in hiding, any more than he did
( in his first interview, the tact that ne is
mad because he was not permitted to
control the Federal patronage in Louisi-
ana.
There are other prominent Democrats
who feel, doubtless, pretty much as Mr..
Eustis docs towards the administration,
and for exactly the same reason. They
have not been so outspoken as Mr.. Eustis
has, because they lack his courage and
his confidence in his ability 10 maintain
his hold upon his constituents. Their
mutterings. however, are heard once in
while.
The President hasn't any occasion
TO be alarmed ut the detection of party
leaders because they have not been able
20 control the patronage they wanted to.
He knows that he has the people with him
in the course he is pursuing, and that the
disappointed politicians are without
power TO do him harm.
What harm can Mr.. Eustis do the ad-
ministration in louisiana He may talk
all he pleases, but he will not be able to
convince the people of that State that the
President isn't a Democrat as he
alleged in his interview.
It is true that the men who have been
given the Federal Offices in Louisiana
don't belong to Mr.. Eustis' wing of the
party in that State, but he can
not deny that they are Demo
Gratis. Indeed, it looks very much
as Ii they had been especially chosen
for their clean records and high
characters. Mr.. Eustis may attack the
President in the Senate, but the senior
Louisiana Senator will be against him.
Having no cause for complaint except
that he didn't get a share of the patronage,
who of the Senators viii follow his lead?
There may be very few who, having
been disappointed In the way that he has
been, may join him in his fight on the
administration, but it Will be a hopeless
tight.
The President is doing just what he
promised the people he would do if he
were elected, and he appears to be the
kind of man to keep his promises. He
hasn't taken any new position with re-
spect 70 the patronage, and isn't likely to.
The kind Of attacks that are being made
on him are not unexpected. If the people
showed any sympathy with them they
would be much more numerous and lar
more bitter than they are. s,g
1t is nonsense to talk about danger TO
party harmony because or this dissatis-
faction with the course Of the President
that has found it's way into print. Before
there can be any such danger the course
Of the administration must be generally
condemned by the people.
