THE tragic END of an escapade in st.
Paul last Saturday night, IN which a
beautiful and once lovely woman came to
her death at the hands of her husband,
and he, noble man, died by his own
hand, should not lose its lesson and moral
upon those who read it. There must be
something wrong IN social system that
produces such escapades which prevail 50
numerously all over the country, though
in many cases in q less aggravating form
than in this ease. There is more marital
infidelity and domestic lnfelicity in the
higher circles of society than in the lower,
and this may be accounted for by the OPP
portunities which the folbles, fashions
and shams of society afford. OF course
this is no justification but it is lament

who is responsible for III In our social
system man is the admirer and woman

motives both are the better Tor it, for

The opposition to the bill pending in
congress to allow Col. Steele of kiddsr
county to purchase q school section on
which he has put several thousand dollars
improvements comes only from the per-
sonal enemies Of that gentleman and is
presumably actuated more from malice
than from any solicitude for the interests
of the territory. He has taken . legiti-
mate course to rectify the mistake, one
which will do no injury to others, and
there is no perceptible ground other than
malice in the opposition Of certain jour

upon congress which is entertaining the
proposition to characterize 1t as ''steal. :"

THE amlcable solution Of the Irish qles-
ton and adjustment Of the difficulties
that have so long distracted that country
and produced vicious acts Of violence and
bloodshed seems almost accomplished in
the happy medium between the extreme
demands of Ireland for independence and
the CALLING yoke of oppression put upon
that province by the British government
Ireland has modified her dem and to the
reasonable one OF separate parliament
like that of Canada, Scotland and Wales,
and this the British government now
seems willing to concede. 1t IS to be
hoped by the friends Of both Ireland and
England that this adjustment will be
effected for there has been "re'gn Of
terror" in both the several years past.

retain the respect of woman. In many
respects the weakness of woman Is her
greatest strength, and IN perhaps as many
IN man his strength is his weakness.
Neatness in dress and cultivation OF
charms is laudable on the palt of woman
but they are to some extent dangerous
for they attract vampires who would
abuse and destroy as we'll as men who
would honor and protect. But the carry
ing of these things to extremes Is where
the danger lies, and discomfort with home
and its surroundings creeps in. The gen
uine love for husband or wife and for
home is lost In the aattery, Establishments
and deceit Of society, fabulous air castles
of unreal and unsttalnable happiness are
built and the fatal work is done. The
woman who leaves her home, however
humble 1t may be, to pursue the tickle
phantom of imaginary happiness in DIS
honor however far away or secluded steps
voluntarily out of paradise into . living
hell from which she can never escape
until she reaches the obscurity and soil
tude of the grave. She should dlstrust
and scorn the infatuation and protesta-
tlons of the man who would propose such
q step, 1or from the moment she consents
to such dishonor he regards her beneath
him IN a social and moral scale and 1t i!
only question of time when he will
abandon her and leave her to meet the
jeers of the world alone while he seeks q
new field of conquest. The man who Is
base enough to lure woman from home
has no genuine love for her, and yet IN
the face of Thousands of we'll authlnticat-
ed cases of this kind of perfidy on the part
of domestic vampires elopements are of
almost daily occurrence. Oh Woman 8

THE president has sent . message to
the senate in which he peremptori!y and
emphsticslly refuses to comply with
resolution OF that body not only request
ing but in effect demanding that he give
his reasons for suspensions from Office IN
the civil service. That the president is
standing upon his rights in the premises
cannot be denied except by those who are
blinded by partisan bias. Such demand
has never before been made of a presl-
dent, and precedent if nothing else should
have restrained that body in tins case.
When Lincoln was installed N office in
1851 democrats in the federal civil service
went down before the party AK like Da-
kota wheat before the sickle of the har-
vester and no questions were asked by the
senate. The same when the democratic
administration Of Pierce came in after
the whlg administration Of Fillmore; and
in fact the same at change of every ad-
ministratlon from the time jackson raised
the party battle cry Of "To the victors be-
long the spoils." President Cleveland IS
but following the example of illustrlous
precedent by both and and all political
parties, and "knowlng his rights dsres
MAINTAIN them" 1t is the policy of every
president to surround himself as far as
possible with civil service in harmony
with his administration for which he is
held responsible to the people and it
would be suicidal for HIM TO do otherwise.
The self. respect of q man might well be
questioned who would tenaciously cling
to an office which he holds by sufferance
Of an administration whose policy he op-
poses. This IS the ground the Alert took
while Arthur was president and We be-
lieve the principle Is correct, and If cor
rect, it will apply to one administration
- we'll IS another. 1t was little less than
monumental gall on the part of the sem
ate TO make such request OF president
Cleveland and the peremptory manner IN
which he has refused it will command the
respect if not the admiration Of all con-
siderate republicans IS well as democrats.
He reminds that body that rs appoint
ments IN the civil service are made by the
advics and consent OF the senate the

The New York Herald Is dong the
public valuable service now by hunting
down and exposing Florida land swind-
ling companies. Recently the country
has been flooded with beautifully illus
trsted pamphlets descriptive of life and
scenes IN the land of flowers. These adj
vertisements are exceedingly attractive,
and the unsuspecting reader is induced
to believe that he can purchase home
IN land where the sun never sets and
the flowers never fade, and where life is
one continuous summer day dream, and
Gil to be had for the low sum Of IS or $40.
The Herali has sent its special cores
pondent to write up the properties of
these several advertising land companies,
with instructions to state facts and moth
ing else. The letters of the correspondent
which have appeared in the Herald up to
date picture very different scene from
that presented in the elaborately illustra-
ted pamphlets of the land companies.
Instead of gardens of tropical fruits and
flowers the correspondent has found moth
ing but barren sand plans, on which are
growing few stunted pine trees, and an
occasional saw palmetto bush, while the
only signs of habitatiou are the burrows
OF the salamanders which crawl over the
arid waste. Now and then the shanty of
some ague-stricken victim of these dis
play advertisements IS found who de-
plores the day that he was scooped by the
land sharks, and would be almost willing
to surrender his hope of eternal salvation
just to get back to "God's country in
the East or West that he might end his
days IN comfort. The Herald is to be
commende for its public spirited enter
prise IN exposing these vlllainous land
speculatiOns.

THE republican party Of the state of
New York is about to come down upon
Its knees to Roscoe Conkllng, its
deposed leader. Time has shown
that Conkling could get along
without the party better than the
party could get along without him. No
well informed republican or democrat
believes that the democrats would have
carried the state of New York at the last
presidential election had Conkling en-.
tered the canvass for the republican
ticket. He saved tie state to Garfield IN
1880, but the nomination of Blame, who,
as secretary OF state under Garfield,
moved heaven and earth to humilate and
depose Conkling closed the mouth of the
latter and wrecked the party for the time.
Some blamed ConkIlng for his apathy
which let the party 60 by default in 1884,
but 1t would have been more than human
for HIM to have come to the support Of
Blaine under the circumstances.

law makes connterfei:ing most heinous
crime and very little mercy is shewn those
who are found engaged either in making
or passing it. Honesty is the best policy
in everything and under all circumstan-

tanned temporarily through dishonest
act but money obtained in that way
proves q millstone about the neck of Its
possessor. One dishonest act will destroy
the reputation of life time and can
never be wholly obliterated. Whenever
you receive such propositions as the one
referred to through the mails send them
to the postofflce department at Washing
ton which has large detective force all
over the country to hunt down and bring
to justice such scoundrels. If you have
not the moral co urage and honesty to re-
slst such temptations, but bite at the bait

be assured that government detectives
will soon be on your track and will bring
you to justice and to the prison.

THERE is food for volume of thought

THERE is food for volume of thought
IN the few following sentences of DR..
Talmadge's sermon IN Brooklyn taber-
nacle last Sunday morning "The reason
that so often man ceases to love his
wife is because the wife ceases to be love-
able. In many cases what elaboration

lessness of appearance after. The most
disgusting thing on esrth Is slatternly

lures stays at home as little as possible is
no wonder. 1t is wonder that such q
man does not 60 on whaling voyage of
three years in leaky ship" That is
very true, and is doubtless the secret of
many alterations. But there are two
sides to the question. How long after
marriage does the husband retain his
taste and care for his own personal ap-
pearsnce? he exacts tidiness on the part
of his wife, why should sue not exact it
from him as well9 Before marriage he
would not think of appearing in her pres
ence with unkempt hair and slovenly at.
tire, but soon afterwards he will lounge
about the house all day of Sundays with
nnshaven face, uncombed hair and un-
clean clothes, and not even compliment
or notice the tidy appearance of his wife
who has perhaps spent an hour or two in
frizzing her hair and arranging her attire
for the sole purpose of pleasing him. Be-
fore marriage he will esteem 1t pleasure
to 90 several blocks out of his way to ac-
company his intended to church, but very
often afterwards he allows her the choice
between going to church alone or staying
at home, and of evenings, which once he
would leave any amusement to be with
her, he now makes all kinds of pretexts
to be away from her and not unfrequent-
ly in company that he would not have
about his own house aid with persons
whom he would not have his wife recog-
nlze on the streets. If husbands and
wives were as considerate of each others
tastes and feelings after marriage as they
are before, domestic lnfellclty and elope-
ments would be unknown. DR.. Tai
madge told the truth in the above extract
but he did not tell the whole truth by the
larger half.
