To show that the cures made by joys
Vegetable Sarsaparilla are not only, not ex.
ceptional cases, but that it helps everybody.
we cite few instances where two in the
same family took it and were both cured.
Thomas stephens, OF les Sixth St, S. f.
took it for weak stomach and dyspepsia. II
entirely cured him. He then gave it TO his
wife for her sick headaches, since which time
she has had no return. 1t cured them both.
Mrs. R. L. Wheaton, OF 7Ol Post ST., 5. F.,
was sufferer from stomach and liver troubles
and biliousness. Finding that it relieved
her, she gave it to a little girl living with
her whose affection was large o2cn sore
which nothing seemed to heal. Italso cured
the child
H. 5. Vim, of Geary Court, Geary St, S. F.,
prominent in the Order OF Red Men, was
very feeble and greatly reduced. joys vege-
table sarsaparills restored his health and

his wife who was similarly afflicted and had
nervous prostration. II had the same happy
effect upon her it had upon him. Scores Of
similar eases could be cited but we have no

Russia has invited some representative
American citizen to visit all her prisons
and observe that the stories Of Russian
cruelty are untrue That is disingenuous
Any visit made under the auspices of the
Russian Government would reflect only
what it permitted to be seen. Moreover,
the systems OF prisons, bad as they are ac-
cording TO Mr. KEENAN,, are not so in
famous as the cruel system of commit
ments under which men and women and
children, by the ten thousand, are arrested
for trivial offenses and exilei to bleak
Siberia, and under which on the merest
sussieion PEOPLE are snatched from their

IT APPEARS that the woman who wrote
the personal letter to the Car, protesting
against Russian cruelties, and from which
letter the RECoRD-UNIoN quoted freely,
day or two ago, has been re-arrested, and
is threatened with exile to Siberia. Der
readers will recall that in the letter there
was not a word that any citizen in a free
government might not address to legis-
lator or Governor without offense. In
deed, there is not in the communica-
ton a line that should offend the Car. 1t
is dignitied protest against a political
system as antagonistic to the best interests
of ones native land. All through the
letter there breathes spirit of patriotism
and ardent love for Russia, and even OF
respect for the Imperial house. But in
Russia the right of petition is unknown,
and whoever dares to even think that the
Emperor is capable of making an error,
does so at the risk of suffering life i'm.
prisonment, or death. As an intelligent
Russian once said to US, when asked what
his fellow subjects, not Nihillsts, thought
of the Government of Russia, "Sir, they
do not think"

THE SCHOOL AND THE CHURCH,

Rev. Horatio Stebbins, d. d., of San
francisco, on Sunday, in that city,
preached of the relation of the common
school system to religion and to govern
ment. lie was, as usual, trenchant and
bold, and found the kernel of the question
In these sentences of undeniable truth:
The public school system of the country is i'm.
bedded in the United States and in the hearts of
the citizens. 1t is a part of the Office of the
Government as much as it is to sustain the iud-
ciary aud legislative departments 1t is the
ouiy OF the Government Because duties are re-
CURED OF the citizens which require intelli-
gence II II was monarchy it would be differ
eent, but IN a free country the Government is no
longer paternal.
This duty the Government owes to the citizen
because the Government requires duties of the
citizen as free man. The common school svs-
TEN Is no charity. Men without family ask
WY tney are compelled to pay taxes to educate
another mans children. For the same reason
that they receive other municipal benefits. 1t is
because the general social welfare requires It.
That is the whole question in a nut
shell. There is no religion in the common
schools. because it is not the office of the
system to deal with the spiritual any more
than 1t is the Office of the judicial and ex-
ecutIve departments of the Government
If the argument that the schools should
be religious is sound, then it is good for
the defense of religious teaching and test
ing in each and every branch of Govern
ment. The reverend speaker put it well
when he declared that those who say there
is no religion in the schools really mean
there is not in the schools what each in
dividual holds to be religion. There is
such divergence of opinion as to what is
true religion that the whole matter set
ties down to this proposition "There is
no religion in the schools or any other
institution unless there is conformity to
what you or | believe" There is no re-
ligion in the schools unless our particular
views are sustained by the teaching The
State simply says; SETTLE this question,
what is true religion@ among your
selves, for the State does not NEEDLE with
it, but gives to the child only those means
of knowledge concerning the common
things of useful life that are essential to
decent and orderly citizenship"

SHERIFF FLAcK has sent his resigna-
tion TO Governor Hill; Tammany has ex-
PEELED him; a jury of his country has
found him guilty of criminal conspiracy to
falsely procure a Court judgment and yet
Flack declares that he is innocent and
that time viii vindicate him. The brazen
efirontery Of the man is amazing. The
very lawyer who appeared for his wife in
the divorce case against Flack, went on
the stand and swore that FIackS son en-
gagged him to bring the action; that he
never saw his client, Mrs. Fiack; that no
testimony was introduced by him, and
that he never even went before the Referee,
but that Flack, his son, and Referee
Meeks conducted the whole thing. In
other words, Mrs. Flack was plaintiff in a
suit for divorce while she had no knowl-
edge whatever of the proceeding, and
Flack and his son engineered the entire
affair. Yet Flaok puts up pitiful mouth
and declares his innocence. If there could
be any doubt of the lawyers story, the let
tiers from the son and from the Referee to
the lawyer establish conclusively that the
fraud was put up and carried out by the
father, the son, and the Referee

CHIEF ENGINEER CASEY tells the Sacra-
mento river delegates now in Washington,
that if Commission is not created as
asked for, Board of Officers familiar with
California streams may be appointed to
have charge of the matter of the reclama-
ton of the rivers This would be better
than nothing. But why commission
should not be raised for our rivers as well
as for those of the Mississippi valley, is
what is incomprehensible. The trouble
with Boards of Officers OF the army Is, that
only the few are educated in river engi-
neering; that they move very slowly; that
they are by training led to repulse the
advice, even the testimony OF civilians; that
they are rarely well posted upon the COM
mercial interests involved in great work
A mixed commission, however, with skilled
engineers accustomed to the treatment of
rivers, viii be more rapid m movement
liberal in sentiment and in closer com
munion with the people whose interests
lie nearest to the cause of river reclama-
ton and restoration.

The rumor is abroad that the Gar of

Duke of Finland, and abolish the repre-

this despotic action, there is nothing to

beautify his surroundings, invites new

therefore inviting. No outside issues
