No Longer Dependent on Nature.

One thing to be borne in mind i'll re-
Elections upon our future is that
modern cities are to an unprece-
dented extent artificial products, the
work of mems genius and energy.
Formerly nature decided where great
city could grow up, and high civiiza-
tion was possible only on the seacoast
or on the banks of great rivers. Now
man has subjected nature to such an
extent that he is, comparatively speak
ing, Independent of her whim and ca.
price. If natural waterways fail he
may construct artificial waterways, and
even without the aid of navigation at
all city may spring up in the heart of
a continent. Berlin, nearly the size OF
New York is in the center of great
open plain on the continent Of Europe,
and may be regarded as work of art.
Only by canals can navigable rivers be
reached, while the modern iron high.
wav, the railroad, still more an artiti-
cial product, is far more important
element in developing Berlin, which
has become an important railroad CEN
ter. 1t is the will of man that has
made Berlin more important than the
seaports of Bremen and Hamburg.

Night and Home.

1t is night now; and here is home.
Gathered under the quiet roof elders
and children lie alike at rest. In the
midst of a great peace and calm the
stars look out from the heavens. The
silence is peopled with the past; sor-
rowful remorses for the sins and short
comings--memories OF passionate joys
rise out of their graves, both now alike
calm and sad. Eyes, as I shut mine,
look ut me, that have long ceased to
shine. The town and falf landscape
sleep under the starlight Awreathed in
autumn mists. Twinkling among the
houses light keeps watch here and
there in what may be sick chamber
or two. The clock tolls sweetly in the
silent air. Here is night and rest. An
awful sense of thanks makes the heart
swell, and the head bow, as I pass to
my room through the sleeping house,
and feel as though q hushed blessing
was upon it.-Thackeray.

A Lamentable situation.

The long contest between the whisky ad-
vocates and the friends of prohibition at
Des Moines is becoming very tangled. The
LIQUOR dealers have enlisted some of the
county officials on their side and not only
are people divided, but courts, juries, and
the men who ought to enforce the laws.
The fight now has descended to retaliatory
prosecutions and the public is getting dis
guSted. The constables who have been
enforcing the law have withstood repeated
trials on all kinds Of charges, and last
week Constable Potts was convicted and
sentenced for taking bride. the evidence
being questionable. Constable Pierce was
also tried for bribery, and when the jury
went to their room they found their feel
ings concerning the law guided them and
they disagreed. His trial on a charge of
making threats to extort money has just
resulted in disagreement of the jury.
Constable Potts resigned his Office to save
his fees. The grand jury on the other
hand has failed to indict the county at
torney who was arrested for embezzlement.
John Warden, prohibitionist who has Sc
cured many injunctions, has been indicted
for making threats. 1t begins to look as
though the saloon element had determined
to ruin the searchers by fair means OF fcui,
and have adopted the.,policy OF swearing
falsely in order to convict the men who are
enforcing the laws. The situation is truly
lamantable
