THE magnificent city of Vienna is said to
have responded to the appeal for help by the
stricken inhabitants of Stry with a total sub
scription of 5000. In America they do
things better. When the towns of st. Cloud
and Sank Rapids were destroyed by a cyclone
the city Of st. Paul at once sent $50, 900 to
help the distressed. There are some very
good reasons for being proud of the way
things are done in this country when il comes
to going to the help of the desolate.

English nobleman, stopped a few days at

THE Boston Transcript, which IS of the
feebly m~ugwumpian order, and clings to the
administration with the grip of one who has
not enough stamina to stand alone, COM
plains that, Notwithstanding Mr.. Garland's
testimony in the Pan-electric inquiry, ''parti-
sans will undoubtedly continue to peck at
the Attorney-general's reputation as before"
According to this definition partisans are
those who uphold principles of common hon
esty and honor, regardless Of the ideas cher
ished by the administration. In the Garland
case these partisans are found not only
among Republicans, but among the leading
Democrats. It is only the mugwumps who
did not consider the Republican candidate
for President good enough foc them, and
those Democrats who will swear that black is
white for party's sake, who are ready to apollo

THE "Rev." Sam Jones is at Columbus,
and has sustained his reputation as a
bully by s%lurring the Christian ministers Of
that city in the following coarse fashion:
''Some Of you preachers think you would lose
your religion were you to preach and talk as 1
do. am satisfied that I would lose my con-
gregatiou did I preach as you do. You have not
got the right kind of stuff in you" It is related
Of old that a certain man thanked God that he
was not like other men. Mr.. Jones seems to
think that he is fortunate in not being like the
noble-hearted men who compose the Christian
ministry. Turning to the ladies, he said:
'.And you, dignifed Columbus ladies, needn't
get on your ear when l say sweat for p~erspira-
ton. just let up on your dignity until l get
through with YOU" And he might have
added that they could lay aside their decency
while he was in the mood to b~lackguard.

No wonder COMMISSIONS Black is tout Of

DOESN'T help him, though, in the eyes Of the

blame on his wicked subordinates who, he
says, persuaded him to incorporate the accu-
sations of corruption in his report. It is the

an access Of information. The Journal stood
alone in the task Of exposing the faulty job
that the Commissioners were palming off upon
the people Of the State, but we knew what Q
were talking about, and said that the State
Board of Health would, doubtless, condemn it
at the earliest opportunity. This has been
done, as will be seen by the report of the pro-
ceedings in our city columns. It is also shown
that at the time the board was trying to make
the people Of the State believe that what the
Journal was saying had no foundation, they
were actually engaged in altering and chang
ing the work to avoid the criticisms that were
made in our columns, thus adding virtual
Misrepresentation to their incompetency. We
are willing to leave the Com missioners where
the Board of Health place them, only adding
that no number of toploftical letters from
their secretary, 'fby order of the board will
help matters any. The people Of the State
will be great gamers If the Commissioners
would be willing to acknowledge that they do
not monopolize the wisdom of the universe,
and that it is barely possible that they may
be liable to error. just how much the stub
bornness of the Commissioners will cost the
taxpayers we have no means of estimating at
present.

THERE is probability that the strike of the
Chicago switchmen will extend to all the
switchmen of the country, it being proposed
to make it a "Union" affair. There is no pre-
tense that the switchmen of any other road
have any grievances; but the st. Louis tactics
are to be repeated, and the business Of the
entire country tied up to force the settlement
of a local trouble. All right, let the whole
business be done at once; and now is probably
as good a time as any to see the full extent
and rower of this new tyranny that is em-
barked in the holy work of Fighting the wrongs
of everybody in this wholesale manner. The
experiment will be watched with interest.
The result no sensible man can doubt.

IT is not the Knights Of Labor who destroy
property and make brutal attacks upon men
who dare to take their places during a strike.
1t is not the Knights who do these things, oh,
NO. 1t is anarchists and tramps who perpe-
trate all the outrages. AT least, SO the strik-
ers say. Inasmuch, however, as these anarch-
lists and tramrs have an irresistible propensity
for c~ongregating about the scene of a labor
disturbance, when, if there were no strike
they would not be heard oil, it is difficult for
the authorities and the public not to hold the
Knights responsible.

has reached here from Carbon that j.
). Kerr, a stock grower. residing at
Elm mountain, Wyoming, shot his
younger brother, w. S. Kerr, ycster-
day. The trouble originated from the
fact that while j. S. Kerr was away
from home the brother seduced his
wife. His son, boy of seventeen
years, first told Mr.. Kerr of this state
of affairs in his household. j. S. Kerr
Immediately decided all his property
to his son and went away. Finally at
tempts were made to rob the boy of
his title to the property decided to him
by his father, and the controversy
brought j. S. Kerr back to the scene
Of his disgrace. In trying to settle the
matter With his brother hot words en-
sued, and w. s. Kerr shot his brother,
the Lall taking effect in his leg. j. S.
Kerr, the injured husband, shot back

The Atlanta, Georgia, Constitution
fatty contradicts the reports that have
been telegraphed from that place in re-
gard to the extent Of the violation of
the local option law and the effect the
municipal contest had on the p-ohibi-
ton question. The Constitution pre-
scnts facts and figures to show that
prohibition has not only not injured
the business of the place but that the
trade of Atlanta has increased since
the adoption of the local option law
The municipal election, the Constitu-
ton alleges was fought OH purely local
questions and many of the strongest
prohibitionists in the city supported
the successful candidate, and some of
the most active supporters of the de-
feated aspirant for mayor were anti
prohibitionists. AS to the quantity of
intoxicating liquor sold, the Constitu-
ton says it is SO small as to have no
visible effect on the criminal records
of the city. In view of the fact that
the Constitution was and is yet OPP
posed to prohibition, this testimony
ought to be acceptable.
