Some complaint it heard on all sides
against the rule of the board requiring
vaccination. All pupils should be vac
cinated, but it is little hard to require
those to undergo the trouble and expense
who did so little more than year ago.
The rule should and probably will be
changed to meet such cases.

Our facilities for news and for incIeas-

ognized in the last three weeks that the

Richmond should take pride in such a
newspaper, where the daily reader may
find all that is needed for Information

A KtPUBLICA> PATRIOT.

After Mr.. Blaine's boomerang on
trusts" the long headed ones OF the Re
publican party made squirt to catch up
with the advanced idea OF the times,
and thereby flank the inevitable tide
Of popular disfsvoT.
Ben. Harrison Ali in his letter discoun-
,enances trusts in ornamental phrases
like the pallid reflex Of ilickering light
about II m. at night when pale Cynthia
sheds her silver eliulgence on the town
in the intervals of corporation gas and
arc burners.
The rhosily cast of a mildewed policy
freckled DER with corruption certainly
did scare the &. o. p
And so now comes big Chief John
Sherman and reports bill in the Senate
from the Committee on Finance which
declares trusts ITO be against public
policv. unlawful and void To enter
into such combinations is made "a high
misdemeanor," punished by a maximum
fine of ten thousand dollars or imprison
ment up to five years, or both fine and
imprisonment
The Joke in this pyroteehnie display
of honest championship of popular rights
is that ii comes from Blaine's rival, who
is known as the worst and most success
full pirate of all the Republican jobberi
and ringsters, not excepting jim Blaine
and Bill Chandler, who made millions
by prosii,uting the public service TO pr
yate speculation in land steals, star route
Jobs, Alaska Fur Company, and numer
ous other robheIies known in their par
ticulars only to the land pirates them
selves.
"verily, the wicked do play honesty Il
the touch of truth itself, aud only thl
Lord knoweth the depth of their by
pocIisy."

The ex-King OF Spain has married his
niece. which is as bad as some OF the
fantastic tricks in Gilbert & sullivan :
comic opera, if it were only on the sage
instead of in real life. We only refer TO
this performance TO make a comparison
between the purity of domestic life in
America and the left handed pranks that
are allowed in other countries. II Is
true that American society allows the
woman a great deal Of power in her
sphere but it is q power allowed
to the typical representative OF our idea
of virtue in that phase Of human life
where virtue is the keystone Of the whole
social fabric. Without any reflection on
our neighbOrs we venture to assert that
the Southern States practice higher
order of morality and purer sentiment
in domestic relations than any other peO-
pie, and we contrast our accepted princi-
pies with the ideas that counienauce tie
suggestion of female suffrage
The idea of giving the woman the
power in the household and enabling her
by increasing her authority is a beautiful
one, and it abhors tie other idea
of bringing her before the public as q
