BAD ADVISERS.

Honest and true advocates for consti-
tutional reform win try to make new
call.
That is al that can be done now. 1t is
evident that, whether they wanted a
convention or not, the people did not call
one by the minority vote of 1887. There
are Ia, 600 people in the state who wish
a convention, but IA, 600 is not 10000.
1t is rather ineonvenient to enthusiasts
who think poorly Of constitutions, laws
and time honored customs and whose pro
found admiration for their own power Of
thinking is superlatively strong.
But the case is just this. The eonsti-
tuition and the law have prescribed a
certain manner for calling convention.
That was thoroughly understood and
unanimously agreed upon before the cleo
ton Even the number Of votes, 10, zoo
absolutely necessary, was ascertaineC
and agreed upon. Everything was favor
able to a call and people thought Their,
was no possibility of failure. Every
body seemed to be in favor of the call
But when the votes were counted, plain
practical men, who do not understand
the new system Of highly organized anS
sympathetic notation, could not stretel
the $4,000 votes which were cast int,
$1,000 that should have been cast. o
course il is very Ridiculous TO let paltr,
2000 OF 50 votes stand in the way Of con
stltutional reform when few mighty

To CONVICT the Chicagobeefphobists
of insineerity 1t is only necessary to ask
fhemto sanction bill for meat in
spector. If the meat on the stalls is dis
eased il should be condemned without
regard to the nativity or previous good
character of.the mule which furnished
ats suoculent muscles and juicy tendons
If by one Of those unfortunate mistakes
which sometimes may happen in the
highest priced stalls the carcass
of poor Tray should appear in
the place Of the bleating victim Of Tray 5
prevailing sin it should be inspected to
zhe full extent Of the law. 1t would be
very easy to procure meat inspectors
bill from a man who is in earnest about

than the testsofanimals on foot. The meai
tests are far more accurate too. Let III

THE threat Of the insurance companies
90 discontinue business here, If the
valued policy bill goes into force, is not
alarming. The real dangers from the
passage Of the bill are an increase Of
rates Of premiums and an increase in the
crime Of arson. The incendiarism is new
greater than it ever was before, and the
proposed valued policy will confirm the
rate Of increase. The bill will also in
crease the business and the profits Of

September, 1878, the electors of the

peror of Germany. He conquered the

the foundation for the greatness Of Aus

century and Francis I, Of Lorraine, who
was the husband of the celebrated Maria
Theresa. In 1904 Francis II resigned the
German imperial dignity and assumed
the title of emperor of Austria. His sue

Juana, daughter of Ferdinand and lisa
bella, the house of Hapsburg also as
cended the throne of Spain, uniting with
it tho domains of the house of burgundy
in the Netherlands, which raised the
house to the highest pitch of its power.

From the windows of the old castle

down upon the valleys of the Aar and up
to the lines Of the Jura mountains. The
people of the neighborhood look with AN
almost superstitious respect upon the old
castle, and the proposition of the Aus

canton to present it TO the Austrian i'm

be repaired and reserved as a place of re-

in which a great mass of volumes are

contain many curious drawings, observa.

all the manifestations of sentiment

In the language of the immortal
to democrats) Grover, it is condi-
ton that confronts us, not theory.
This thought is suggested by the
fact that while Salem is about to
have erected within her limits new
church building, there are three un-
occupied pulpits in the city at the
present time. They are the Christ
ian. Baptist and Cumberland Presby-
terian. The new one will be of the
Unitarian denomination. Is it or
is not fact that we already
have too many denominations?
The churches are all good.
But could they not accomplish
much more bya union of forces? AS
union in matters social. or pOlicical
is strength, it seems the same must
be true in regard to affairs spiritual |
Salem already has more than doZ- |
en- churches and as many different
denominations. Some day the world !
will see many of these denomina-
tions united with their little differ
ences adjusted. What will the big

its hardness, in fact its effect is To
produce drunkenness in those who

young boys into the drinking of the
light beverage. The result is they
are often seen n condition bordering
on the inehriate.
