JOHN M. SMYTH.

This gentleman is one of the most
prominent lights in Chicago business
circles. He is of Irish descent. about
forty-two years of age, and was born
on board of a tempest-tossed ship off
the banks of Newfoundland. John
Mcdonald Smyth was not the only
child in the family that made his first
appearance in public life on the water.
A subsequent boy was born on Lake
Michigan, off Kenosha, when the fam
lily were en- route to Chicago. Mr..
Smyth's father, Michael K, originally
a school teacher in Ireland, was elected
Clerk of the North Town of Chicago
about 1913, but soon dying left our
subject and his brother the support of
their mother John NJ was first
newspaper carrier for the old Morning.
Post, launched by Sheehan, Matteson,
and f. A. Eastman. He also carried
papers for j. McNally. At twenty he
was city circulator for the Republican,
into which the Post had merged.
About 1868 he opened, with
Ulick Bourke, a small furniture store
ON the West Side. Dissolving part
nership, he went into business for him
self, and is to-day the leading dealer
in the house-furnishing line in the
West Division. Besides his fine prop
erty on the site of the old Scammon
School, on Madison street, he owns
valuable property on Adams street,
near Ogden avenue For many years
he has been Chairman of the Repub-
lican County Central Committee, was
an elector on the Republican National
Committee in 1880; and in 1884 repre-
scented the Ninth Ward in the Council,
and has frequently been spoken of as a
candidate for Mayor. He has strong
Irish sympathies, having conspicu
ously figured in the National League
Conventions in Boston and Philadel
phia. He has always contributed
most generously to the Irish cause
He is an ardent Catholic, and is much
attached to his family and friends.

OUR hummer CONGRESS-.

Speaker Tom Reed and eX-Speaker
Carlisle are reported by a correspon-
dent as deploring the fact that the
newspapers give too little space to the
proceedings of Congress.
The fact is that the newspapers pay
entirely too much attention to these
bummers.
Congress no longer legislates for the
people. 1t legislates for the two great
parties which are running the country
by their lack of principle.
The only way for the newspapers to
force Congress to do something decent
is for them to pay no attention to Con
gressmen whatever
Their these cheap confidence men,
whose only wish is for notoriety, might
pass some laws for the benefit of the
merchants. the farmers, and the me
chanics of the country.

THE GAMBLERS.

There are to-day in the city of Chi
cago too many unindicted gamblers.
The people wanted and expected
special Grand Jury to look into tins
grave question. They did not get one.
There are so many peculiar clrcum-
stances surrounding or attending the
selection of grand iuries in this county
that the people have lost confidence in
them. For itself THE EAGLE would
like to see the grandiVry system en-
tirely abolished. 1t is relic of bar
barism, anyway But the January
Grand Jury did far better than any one
expected that it would do.
THE EAGLE did not have a
great deal of confidence in it, but 1t
turned out to he very honest and con-
scientious body. The eleven indict
ments which it brought into court, as
well as the strong moral indictment
rendered against the city administra
ton, was fine evidence Of Judicial fear
lessness. But the grand jury SHOULD
have gone farther. There is no reason
why Kirk Gums embezzlement fac
tory or Cv Jaynes' hole-in the-wal
should be selected for salvation, an
more than some others should. Hank
ms. of course. should have been il
dicted if no one else was. Blu
aside from that. the principle of SAY
ing any of the gamblers was wrong
They are all in the same boat, and til
leaving out of Gum and few other
was very funny proceeding, to sa
the least and one calling for explana
ton. However, the gambling ours
continues with undated fury, an
there is a splendid chance for mo-
indictments in the very near future.

POLITICAL POINTERS.

DENNIS CoNsIDINE is making great
strides towards the Democratic nomi-
nation for West Town Assessor,
JOHN ]. HACKETT will probably be
the next Democratic nominee for Al
derman of the Thirteenth Ward.
DAVID MCCARTHY, of the Kelley
Brewing Company, declines to be con-
sidered candidate for West Town
Assessor.
WILLIAM C. NIEHoFF is said to be in
training for County Clerk.
Two NEW postal stations for the sale
of stamps and money orders and the
registry of letters have been es-
tablished-one at the corner of Ogden

FIFTH AVENUE.

The name of the fine Chicago bust
ness street now known as Fifth avenue
should be changed right away 1t
represents nothing Chicagoish and in
the first place it was called after a
string of architectural monstosities
and brown stone boarding houses in
the city of New York.
The Aldermen should give it Chi
cago name, and something distinctly
Chicagoan in character, even though
it should be Whiskers avenue.

A FEW days ago as a class at the Gin
cinnati College of Medicine was about
to dissect the body OF a man who had
died of drink a young man rushed into
the room and threw himself on the
subject, crying; MY father, my poor
father" This recalls the fact that
some years ago President Harrison
found in the Ohio Medical College the
body of his father, John Scott Harri-
son, of North Bend, Ind. These horri-
bic incidents emphasize the fact that
there is vast deal of unpleasant ro-
nance in actual life.
