When the motion came up to hold the state

big kick, Kaufman heading the movement
to put it oil until the third Wednesday
of August; he thought the labor trouble
might disarrange everything and a candidate

ticket Lucius Rogers backed him up But
Cooper, Leeds aud others who had set up the

Last night Superintendent Hslbach had
the city water turned oil on East King from
Centre Square to Lime street, on Duke street
from Orange 10 Vine, and on Christian street
from Orange to Grant This was done in
order to ascertain whether or not any OF the
water in the East King street cellars came
from the city pipes. The water was kept oil
from 10 o'clock until this morning but il
made no difference, as the stream in
Sprecher's cellar continued to flow as before.
When the ground becomes dryer the water
may fall, but 1t may be necessary to put in a
sewer or pipes.

nsnMPTuARYu DEMOCRACY.

Democracy is not the same everywhere,
world without end In Indiana, where the
pluralities are narrow and where it is neces-
sary to rake the bitches for enough votes to
keep the State Democratic, the party is op-
posed to what it is pleased to call s'sumptuary"
legislation, and will tolerate no suggestion of
a law looking to a stricter control of the liquor
traffic. In some of the Southern States,
where Democracy places more confidence in
the shotgun and lash than in the beer
schooner and the pony whisky-glass, it is
not fastidious about terms, probably never
heard of the word ''sumptuaryp and is down
on the saloons, AT jackson, Miss, the cap
ital of the State and the seat of justice of
Kinds county, the Democracy is intent on try
ing prohibitlon-a ''sumptuary" idea gone
to scotland are mindful of the fact that
the colored voter outnumbers the white two to
one. Having discovered in some manner that
the negroes intended to vote against prohibi-
bition, the white Democrats determined on
their old tactics, and have given the colored
men to understand that they will not be al
lowed to vote at all. An naturalization
meeting was broken up on Thursday night by
an armed band Of prohibitionists, who fired
frona fifty to one hundred pistol shots No
more meetings Of the kind will be tolerated.
In the election to be held on Tuesday next,
the prohibition Democrats will have it all to
themselves. The "sumptuary" Democrats Of
Indiana should 60 down and get acquainted
with their brethren in Mississippi

SPEAKING of Mr.. Tilden, the New York
Graphic says few men have been more viru-
lently abused and vilifed, but adds that chat
is tae penalty of conspicuous merit" This
is rather remarkable admission, considering
that among the few referred to must be in
cluded Mr.. Blaine, who was abused and viii
fed, and by none more virulentiy than the
Graphic. It is unexpected frankness when
that paper confesses that conspicuous merit
is the object of such attacks.

From a report in the Boston Transcript Of

take the following remarkable paragraph:
ssOn motion Of Carl Schurz, the secretary

EVANGELIST SAM JONES has got into
trouble with the Georgia Commissioner of
Agriculture. Sam was preaching temperance
doctrine over in Missouri the other day. and,
after berating his hearers for "steeping them
selves in liquor when they were blessed with
such glorious climate and fertile soil, illus
trating his argument by saying: CHOW, if
you lived down on the bare hills of Georgia,
where we can't make more than three or four
bushels of corn to the acre, and where we
can't make but two bushels of wheat to the
acre, could understand how you would need
a little liquor to help you keep up" This
speech coming to the ears of the Georgia
commissioner has caused that gentleman to
rise in wrath and politely brand Mr.. Jones as
liar and slanderer. Jones has replied, but
his explanation is not satisfactory to the
aggrieved agriculturist, and the war is likely
to go on. It seems to be forgotten that Mr..
Jones has an 'evangelists" license, and that,
like the poet, much must be forgiven him..

Blight HOURS A PAILURE.

The decision of the Chicago pork packers to
pay their employees by the hour is what might
have been expected when the attempt was
made to make eight hours days work. This
could not be done so long as eight hours were
not made days work in every branch Of
business, and even then it would not and
could not have succeeded unless the mechan-
les of other places confined their hours of la
Dor to eight. It is now proposed to pay by
the hour, to which no reasonable exception
can be taken, for if any man does not want to
work that many hours day he need not, but
will be paid according to the hours he works.
OF course there will have to be some under
standing with the men, for the success of any
industry Of the kind depends on the system
upon which it is conducted, and il is neces-
sary that there should be something like
days work performed BY each man employed;
but if there be any who deem eight hours as

SAID Mr.. George William Curtis to the Re-
form League at Newport inconsistencies
aud failures in the practical enforcement of
the principle may be deplored, but the adj
vance of reform itself is now beyond the con-
troll of any administration. But what, in
the practical enforcement of the principles,
and how can there be advancement in the
absence of enforcement The distinction
may be plain to the theorists of the League,
but to the ordinary comprehension it is a
conundrum that must be given up.

much as they should work, they can stop
when they have completed that much, and
receive pay therefor. This is fair to all con-
cerned, and if there be those who are willing
to work longer, it is hard TO see how it can be
successfully interdicted. 1t will not do to
put premium on semi-idleness. nor to allow
the man who does not want to work as much
as do his fellows to prevent them from doing
as they see fit in the matter. Payment by
the hour is inevitable, and the sooner the men
employed recognize this fact the better will it
be for all concerned.
