INNOCENCE IN WATERBURY.

Attention has been so pointedly drawn of late to the suggestive pictures to be found in some brands of cigarettes, that it would seem as though the authorities throughout the country might feel it incumbent upon themselves to make inves tgation in this direction. Cigarette smokers are principally young persons, and it is for their ben eft that every box of cigarettes of certain brands contains the miniature photograph of young woman in immodest attire. If the law is not equal to the case, let it be made so, but we think that it is equal to it.-Waterbury Republican.
 We fully agree with our esteemed con- temporary as regards the evil tendencies of these pictures upon the mind of the youth. But cigarette smokers, we would remind the Republican, are not chiefly boys, which we suppose is meant by young persons, and there seems to be no law to meet the case. If the Republican can point out one it will be doing great service to hundreds of parents in this city The Republican would also do 8 great service to the few hundreds of it's readers if it would omit from it's columns advertise ments like this which appeared yesterday on the same page with the editorial quoted above. .>* CHICHESTERS ENGLISH DIAMOND BRAND,

 We trust for the sake of the Republicans character and the high moral reputation which it desires to attain in the commit nifty that the advertisement is not the con sequence of avarice but rather that it's appearance in it's columns is the result of a mistake due to one man trying to run the various departments of daily, crowding weeks into days and the capac- ity of several men into one. But when we discover on the third page of this very same paper lot of quack nostrum ad- yertisements it fails to throw light on this matter. We don't believe the editor and proprietor of the Republican can be party to such damnable work. It is his innocence, his implicit confidence and abiding faith ip mankind
