The Woman's club of Chicago wants the compulsory school law enforced, and there seems to be good reason for such desire. In connection with the agitation of the subject, the facts appears that the school census of Chicago in 1888 shows 142, ,293 children, and
 the total number of pupils enrolled during
 the year 84, ,902, leaving 57,391 children out side. It is probably not true that this num- | ber have had no schooling at all, but it is
 fair to suppose they have had very little. The present statute requires attendance at school | twelve weeks year. The law, however,
 does not designate any officer to enforce it. The discussion brings out some serious dihi- ! culties in the way of enforcing the law, as, for instance, the impossibilty of finding school buildings to put the children in, also
 the difficulty in making the attendance con- | tinuous instead of a week or day at time. Massachusetts is ahead of the other States l in authorizing the formation of naval bat- | talion as auxiliary to the State militia. Sev- eral measures have been proposed in Con. gress and the navy department at Washing | ton has also considered the question. The result of the secretarys deliberations has been imparted to New York men interested l in the project, who will formulate bill on this plan and urge it upon the State Iegisla-
 ture, This will differ slightly from the Mas

The American Architect forcibly and sen- sibly protests against the high buildings in few of these buildings are in point of fact constructed with due regard for safety and durability, and that most of those with which it is acquainted are already twisting and cracking to an extent that threatens speedy destruction, if not total ruin. Then we have earthquake shocks occasionally in this eoun- try. Two or three smart ones between 1880 and 1s40 led to general lowering of the tal- Ter (seven or eight-story) buildings of that day in New York city. 'tThe effect of such l shocks" says the American Architect, "at
 the top of building 300 feet high would be
 so vigorous as to frighten the tenants of the upper stories, if nothing more"

TmE AMENDmENTS 0UAsuED,

Tho constitutional amendments sub.
Mitted at the lnnt election, although
carried by n considerable majority, will
never become a fundamental law--at
least not until they are again submitted
to two Legislatures and reinforced by
q popular vote, The reason for this ia
simple and plain. The Constitution
provides that the Legislature may direct
in what manner amendments shall be
submitted to the people.
The last Legislature adopted an Act
directing the Governor to cause the
proposed amendments to be published
in ono or more daily papers for ninety
days preceding the election. This
Governor Stevenson failed to do. Con-
Bequcntly the amendments, not being
legally adopted, fall TO the ground. Az
the Governor appended his approving
signature to the bill which directed the
publication, it is difficult 10 ime CINE
h is reason for failing to comply with its
provisions, Having approved tho bill,
we can hardly credit the report th0t
when his attention was called to tho
OMISSION he excused himself on the
ground that the law was not good
one. Presuming that he possesses Or
binary common sense, it is hardly pos.

COUNTY Official PAPER.
CONTRIBUTIONS AMENDMENT

Representative Stone. OF Kentucky,
has introduced joint resolution propos-
ing an amendment to the Constitution
providing for the election of President
and Vice Pre- sident by direct vote of
the people.
This is certainly move in the right
direction, for in q government OF the
people, for the people aud by the peo-
officer Of the government should not be
elected by the vote Of majority OF the
qualified electors. The chief corner.
stone Of n republican government Is
thut majority OF the people shalt rule
through their representatives chosen by
ballot, but IN the election of Presi.
dent under the present system IL has
happened, aud Is likely to occur ugain,
that the rinn who receives majority Of
the Buffrnges Of the qualified electors ia
prohibited by law from becoming Presi-
,lent Of the United States. This is in
direct opposition to tho principles OF
republican form of government and
should be discouraged by every citizen
who is in favor of that vital principal of
popular government.
II has for many years been a mystery
why our Constitution has not been 80
amended as to provide for the elcctio n
of U. ). Senators, as we'll as the Presi.
dent and Vice-Presicent by popular
vote Of the people, for We believe that
it is not only right md jnst, but we be-
lieve such II course would serve to pre-
vent fraud aud strengthen the foundO-
lions OF our government.

The Stops Of an Organ,


With such important functions as the
liver, are of course productive of Sc
riOus bodily disturbance. When it
relaxes it's secretive and distributive
activity, bile gets into the blood, and
tinges the skin and white of the eyes
with yellow, the bowels becomes con-
stipated, the tongue coated, the breath
sour. Then come headaches, vertigo
and congestion of the organ, accom-
panied with pain in it's vicinity or
under the right shoulder blade. Shall
blue pill be the remedy sought? No,
for mercury in any form is pernicious.
What then? Experience indicates
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters as the
true remedy for inactivity of the liver
1t not only relaxes the bowels without
pain, but has direct stimulating eff
feet upon the hepatic gland itself, the
seat and origin of the trouble. All
malarial complaint involves disorder
of the liver, and of these the Bitters is
the most popular curative. 1t also
conquers dyspepsia, nervousness,
rheumatism and kidney troubles.

The committee on platform is pre-
sided over by that staumch and uncom-
promising protectionist Mckinley, of
Ohio. The platform will have no I'M
certain sound. 1t will voice the pro-
tective ideas of the American people
very distinctly. The woman suffrage
question and the question of saloon
domination in politics may both cause
the committee some discussion before
they reach conclusions. The women
have already had the ear of the COM
mittee and presented their case
through such able advocates as Mes
DANES Anthony, Beecher, Hooker and
Huling. 1t is not likely that the party
is ready to commit itself unqualifiedly
to woman suffrage at this time, but
there is evidently a growing senti-
ment that way. The feeling is very
strong in some half dozen states, that
the time has come to take issue with
the domination of the saloon element
in politics. This is in no sense pro-
hibition movement, the party being
committed to high license as a princi-
pie, but the discussion will breed con-
tentiOn.
