The civil service law forbids any govern
ment officer to solicit funds for campaign pur
poses from government employees and makes
1t serious offense for him to receive such
contribution even when voluntarily ten
dered. The intention Of the law was not TO
prevent voluntary contributions by govern
ment employees, but to prevent the extortion
of money from them. by fear of losing their
places If they refused to contribute. Events
have shown that the law has failed to fully
accomplish its object, because the party
committee, If 1t contains no government Off
GERS. is not forbidden to solicit nor TO receive
contributions. The party committee may
exercise just as much duress, may put the
employe in quite as much fear of losing his
place, and so extort contribution from him,
as the government official or the member of
the Senate or House. Whether it is possible
to remedy this defeat by law is doubtful
But strong and aggressive public sentiment
that will condemn such acts, no matter by
whas party committed, will soon effect
cure. When campaign committees and that
such acts will lose their party votes they
will soon stop them.

ne protest of the Irish ENJOYS now in the
United States against Parnel's remaining at
the mead of the Irish party is sure to have
very great effect, not so much because 1t
voices their own personal views, but because
twill be interpreted, and rightly. as repre-
senting the sentiment of the friends of Home
Rule In this country. Irish American opinion
has always been very potent with the home
leaders for the very good reason that the
fuel = keep up steam has always come from
this country, and must continue to come
from the same source. Take away from the
Home Rule movement the support of the
Irish Americans of the United States and it
would be as dead as steam engine dis
connected from the boiler.

Just about once in so often the papers in
Saint John, N. q. break out in editorial
broadsides, singing the praises of that city as
superior "winter port" for ocean steam
ships. Saint John har5or they say was
foreordained while the world was yet in a
plastic state to be the natural seaport of the
Dominion of Canada. halifax they say is
only an accident anyway, and as for Port
land they cannot see how steamship owners
will risk their precious vessels on its Itreach-
erous waters. To be sure nothing very bad
has happened here yet, but they say some
thing dreadful is in store for us. The Saint
John Telegraph had one of its periodical
spells last Wednesday and in its editorial
column said something like this.
The council of the Toro to board of trade have
been considering the winter port question: but

appear at the time set for tie arraign-

The examination of the three boys was
postponed. They were all allowed
their freedom until then. Caffray, ac-
cording to his attorney, says that Og
denis practices have included scores of
boys of his acquaintance, to whom he
has given considerable money. Ogden
is about thirty-five years of age and
lives with his widowed mother. Most Of
his time Is spent about the church, and
when not thus employed he has worked
for neighbors doing chores. etc. He has
been favorite with most of the yoanger

yesterday for his fourth term. The pc
cuIiar record of this criminal has no
parallel among any of the criminal in
sane recorded at the prison. butcher
was sent to the Waupun prison for four
years in 1878, convicted of burglary,
was transferred from Waupun to the
Wisconsin insane asylum in 1880. from
whence he shortly escaped. In De-
cemher, 1881, he turned uD at Morri-
son, H.. committed a burglary and
WAS sent here for two years. He was
transferred to the Elgin asylum July
IL. 1882. The warden here was notified
a month later that butcher had es-
capped. In February, 1883. he was
arrested at Rockford for burglary and
sent here for two years. In October he
was again transferred TO Eigin, only
remaining in the asylum eight days,
when he again escaped. In January,
1884. he was arrested at Woodstock.

sent back here for his third term, a
three years sentence, only to be again
transferred TO Elgin third time, and
nine days later made his escape. Yes

Woodstock, and, as he is undoubtedly
insane, it will be but short time be-
