B-It is getting to be common talk that there
is rather too much politics engrossing the minds
of certain county officials, who are thereby not
only injuring themselves but are bringing reproach
upon their official conduct 1t is the bust
ness of official to act for the best interests of
the whole people, without regard to the effect it
may have upon the political prospects of any in
dividual. Of course no one can find fault with
county official for having his preferences but these
preferences should not be permitted to warp his
better judgment or in any manner interfere with
his responsibilities to the public. In this connec-
tion we will mention the fact-which has also be-
come subject of general remark-that the off,
eiousness of certain selfseeking outsiders is get
ting to be rather oppressive, if not nauseating, to
the average citizen, and unless it is checked and
that speedily, those who are now lending an ear
to these siren tongues will see the day when they
will regret it. Forewarned is forearmed.

Rich Girls and Their Doubtful Suitors.

Chicago Mail.
Rich girls really do not stand in Chicago a
frst-rate chance of getting frst-rate husbands.
There are not enough rich manageable young
men to 60 around, even if the rich girls get them
all, and they do not. Old Walter Newberry, on
his death, settled on his three ghters-whole-
some, good-looking and sensible girls, all of them
100000 apiece, which should go to them and
their husbands absolutely whenever they married,
providing the husband would take the name of
Newberry. All of them died spinters. There was
not in all Chicago self respecting man, worthy
of the girl, who would sell himself out for $780,
900. A man who is consderate does not venture
to ask girl to become his wife when the station
of the girl is financially better than his. That is
why it is that rich girls very often get very med
iocre husbands. Piah girls not fought over

@-The miners of Western Maryland are after
Governor Lloyd with very sharp pointed stick.
Two bills for the relief of the miners were passed
either lost, stolen are for some reason in
operative. The miners charge that the Governor
was responsible in each case and they have been
holding meetings and passing resolutions de-
nouncing him. We do not see that the Governor
was in any way to blame for these omissions, mis-
takes or rascalities, and it strikes us that the
miners were just a trife too previous. Governor
Lloyd will have no difficulty in setting himself
straight on these matters before the people of the
State. We can't believe that he would be guilty
of the things charged to him.

rs Referring to the strikes to establish the
eight hour day in Chicago and the attending riots,
the Philadelphia Press says that only sin a few
instances the workingmen have gained their point
but the great majority of the 10000 men who
struck in that city have had to resume work on
the old terms if they are successful in returning
at all. The cost to them of one weeks idleness
than 100000 and the damage done to business
and the check given to returning prosperity, much
of which will have to be paid by the strikers,
must ultimately swell the total loss to larger
figures"

lag~ Some of the labor demands in the Western
cities have resulted disastrously to those who ex-
pected to be benefited by them. In several in
stances where eight hours work and more pay
we're demanded extensive manufacturing estab-
lisbments closed their doors and stopped work in
definitely rather than accede to the demands
Business generally has been seriously damaged
by these demands,

rs The Philadelphia Ledger says that Mr..
Edward Atkinson, in a careful review of wages
and prices, shows very clearly that, comparing
1885 with 1865, wages in general have been in
creased % per cent. on the gold standard, while
the cost of 200 principal commodities which men
consume has been reduced SO per cent. There
has been in fact more or less steady improve
met in the condition of the wage-worker during
the last twenty years, and corresponding decline
in the profits of capital. The rich have not been
growing richer and the poor poorer (as slang
whangng orators say, but "quite the reverse. if
any dependence is to be placed on census returns,
pay-rols of large manufactures, reports of labor
bureaus, market quotations and similar sources of
statistical information. These the only guides
we have as to such matters, and if they are re-
jected there is nothing left but guessing.

We-In the General Conference of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church South, which was held in
Richmond, Va, resolution was introduced on
Monday, by DIR. M. B. Chaplain, of Missouri, in
relation to the confederation of the church repre-
sented by that Conference and the Methodist
Episcopal Church. The resolution provides that
"this General Conference shall elect a committee
of seven, four of whom shall be clerical and three
lay delegates, who shall meet like committee
from the Northern Methodist Church in 1888,
looking to reunion of the two churches" DR..
Chaplain said that in his State the sin and folly
of the matter had been observed; that he has seen
in small town of 400 or 500 inhabitants two
Methodist churches raising altar against altar-a
waste of money and men, waste of the forces of
our Christianity. The question was discussed at
some length, and finally it was referred to a
special committee, to be composed of one from
each Annual Conference.

~ Last week, during the riot excitement in
Chicago, crowd of Polish and Bohemian roughS
raided drug store and helped themselves to the
contents of several bottles which they thought
contained whisky. 1t turned out, however, that
they drank a poisonous drug and eight of them
follow their pals. How many more partook of
the stuff is not known, the physicians of the city
only being able to find twelve of the victims. 1t
is likely that hereafter Chicago drug stores will
be safe from mob violence. 1t is unfortunate that
more of the villains cannot be included among the
number who put an end to their lives in this high
" sensational and very expeditions manner.

Rusk told him to 60 and tell his countrymen that
