BUFFALO's CANDIDATES.

The resignation Of VIM. E. Church,
Associate Justice Of the Supreme Court
of Dakota, has brought another Buffalo
man to the front. Church Is Republi-
can and has held the office for many
years. James NJ. Humphreys, Of Buffalo,
Is booked for the succession. Hum
phreys's backing for the place is his
former law partner, Dan Lockwood, ex-
bosom friend of the President. Hum
phreys spent several days in Washing
ton last month, and 1t Is pretty we'll
known that when he left he had the
promise of the appointment. There Is
one more Buffalo man who expects to
be recognized. Ex Congressman Rogers,
who Is a candidate for Public Printer.
Rounds has lately been getting his
property in Chicago la good shape,
which would indicate that he did not
expect to remain much longer at the
head of the Government Printing Office.
Rogers is o friend Of the President and
has powerful political backing, the only
doubt of his appointment being whether
the President would care to give to New
York State another office Of SO much i'm
portance when the State has already
been so highly hOnore1.

Sunday Trains Abolished.

The Pennsy Railroad Company
has recently been quietly making ex-
peTiments TO ascertain whether or not
1t would pay for big railroad corpora
tion to observe Sunday by cutting off
more or less of its Sunday traffic. A
g eat many of its excursion and several
of Its regular passenger traiRs have
been discon .inued. The freight trains,
xcepting those carrying live stock and
perishable goods, have been OrdeTtd off
iILm o'clock Saturday night till mid
night Sunday, and all remaining work
Oh Sunday has bsen stopped. To make
the opportunity still further beneficial,
freight engineers are allowed the use
of their locomotives TO take themselves
home for the day. The results have 80
far proven SO satisfactory that the
directors are now arranging to make
these experimental changes permanent
and to extend them. The men are found
to be worth more and the liability to
accident Is lessened.

RIVER AND HARBoR BILL.

The Senate passed the River and Har-
Dor bill by a vote of yeas 42, to nays IA,
with amendments, and the bill goes
back to the House. As 1t passed the
House it appropriated nearly $l5. .200,-
600. The Senate Committee on Com
merce made the total over $l8,000,000.
Apprshensions of an Executive veto in p
duced the Committee on Commerce to
recommend at the last moment hOri-
zOntal reduction on all items of the bill
of % per cent, thus reducing the aggre
gate TO the very respectable sum of $14,-
100000. This was passed by vote of 81
to 1S. The scaling should not deceive
either the House or President, as 1t was
done to carry through the canal jobs. If
the Hennepln Canal scheme can cure
$225,OOO instea' of 100000 they can

sclools prevailed, atheism and inAdelity
would flourish in the land, leaving the in-
evitable fruits Of anarchy and communism.

most without morality they could no, but
breed atheism and wickedness. Mr.. Greene
proposed to establish parochial schools in
