Daniel Webster said that suicide was con-
fession. In the case Of Sheriff Flack resigna-
ton is confession. He has not yet given up
the Office Of Sheriff, but he has resigned his
position as Grand Sachem Of the Tammany
Society and has withdrawn from the Tammany
General Committee. OF course he did this
under compusion, and il is TO the credit OF
the Tammany leaders that they insisted on
relieving the organization of the odium arising
from the recent disclosures Unless Mr.. Flack
resigns the Shrievalty, ID is probable that
charges against him will be laid before the
Governor. Mr.. Flack requests that his friends

It is gratifying TO note that our good friend
Iadii Hassein Ghooly Khan has at last reached
the plane where he can see the point-the point,
that is, of an American joke. On his voyage TO
IIavre he came 10 the conclusion that he acted
hustily in taking umbrage in behalf of his royal
master at various remarks made concerning that
gentleman in the newspapers OF The county, and
confessed that the trouble arose from his inability
to understand American humor Now we hope
that, having gone so far. Mr.. Ghooly tossed that
scrap-book overheard.

Russia has walked up to the fact that the
destruction Of forests is having serious effect
upon watercourses. 1t is noted that the Cas-
plan Sea is perceptibly receding and the indi-
cations are that in hundred years the Alal
Sea may disappear altogether The Govern
ment is disposed to take measures to prevent
the rapid and needless clearing Of forest lands 1;
and when the Russian Government resolves on
any course it is apt 10 carry it ont with vgor

Russian methods in dealing with the question

There have been isolated unions OF
tailors IN the United States for more than
half a century, and the union OF Troy,

one OF the first organizations of work
ingmen in the country; but it was not
until 1865 that any attempt at national
federation was made. In that year the

union was organized in Philadelphia

tensive or powerful. is membership in
1885 being less than 1000.
The Journey i TailOrs' National
union, the most successful national
organization the trade has ever known.
was founded in the city of Philadelphia,
in August. 1883. Representatives of the
local unions OF five cities. with an aggre-
gate membership Of 800. were present
and took part in the organization. Dur
ing the first wear Of its existence the
union doubled its membership, and when
the convention was held in Chicago in
1884 delegates were present from ten To-
Gals. and il was believed that the Ma
tional union was an established fact at
last. Since 1884 the organization has
had a steady and healthy growth; espe-
cially Is this true Of the two years just
closing. The present membership is
nearly 10000, and the number of cities
and towns in which there are local
unions has grown TO 40.

union, who were elected at the con-
