that the neglgee shirt has been received into
popular favor and at the same time into good
society, which is, perhaps. more important,
this subject of heated debate no longer exists.
The male clerk simply secures negligee shirt.
perhaps IT only costs 30 cents but that does not
matter. He wears no vest or suspenders. and it
is a matter of indifference whether he wears a
light Office coat or not. There Is great deal of
difference between shirt sleeves made of white
linen cotton and shirt sleeves made of fan
mel or cheyIOt. What that difference is would
perhaps be difficult to explain. but the fact re-
mains that there is a difference. On hot dav
i'll these modern times the clerks may be seen
bending over their desks looking cool and COM
Portable and no one asks them whether they
are aware that ladies are in the room and then
glare at the N until they feel obliged to get up
and pull on their coats. The negligee shirt has
solved vexed question of daily department
life and now if some equally happy method
could be devised of securing a temperature in
the public Offices that will exactly suit every
clerk. then department life will perhaps be a.
happy as 1t Is possible in this everyday world.

society. IL Is often claimed that men are ex-

well known that great emergency OF opinion
existed in reference to those causes-some as
cribIng the phenomenal warmth of the hitherto
usual cold season of the year to the effect OF
the earth's internal heat; others to the gull
stream coming in closer proximity to our
eastern coast; and yet another class OF intelil-

its effects. Labor, study and a constant OBJ
servation of meteorological conditions are the
necessary preliminaries to an intelligent de-
monstration of the cause and effect OF those
atmospheric disturbances which give TO us sun
shine and shade, heat and cold, balmy breeze
and cyclonic storm. And yet we need not be
surprised at those changes that arc In progress
upon the earths surface. They have come be-
fore. Other changes are taking place, but with
this difference: they are slow In their progress
and not apparent to ordinary observation.
Hence there is little heard OF them, yet IN
their aggregate of completion they are as won
derful in their magnitude as they are slow IN
their process which carries them forward to
that condition when we can realize their hnallty
and judge of its effect well as measure their
potential causes.

a RIDICULOUS ELL.

A bill has been introduced il
Congress 10 prevent lottery dealers
usIrg the United States mails fei
the transportation of tickets. Tie
idea is 10 break up the lotteries.
Sach bin can have no effect
whatever on the lottery companies.
These companies do not now use
the mails to any considerable ex-
tent, but deal directly through the
Wells-Fargo companies, and no law
of Congress can prohibit the express
companies from transporting lottery
tickets.
Even if the express companies
refused to carry lottery tickets they
could be carried on the cars by the
agents of the company, or they
could be sent as freight to the large
cities and from there distributed to
the sub agencies.
Tie moment the U S. mail is
closed against lottery tickets they
become contrahand piece of goods
that everybody wants.
The legislation against lotteries
adyertises the concerns and helps
the sale of tickets immensely.
Since Rev. VanDeventer, George
Thaxter, Sardis Summerfeld and
other leading reformers began their
crusade against the lottery, the sale
Of the tickets has steadily increased
in Carson, and now the lottery
com paales, big and little, reap
about double the harvest they did
before.
1t is human nature for people to
get hold of anything that the law
forbids. 1t was a French woman
who said: "If it were against the
law to drink water, how / should !
enjoy it as a regular tipple."
If law of Congress were passed
allowing everybody to start lottery
who wished to DO so, they would
spring up like mushrooms all over
the country, and in FIVE years they
would become so common that no.
body would p2troaize them, and
the competition to secure Paolic
patronage would be so sharp that
they would al die a natural death.

The maintaining Of the public health Is not
less important than the preservation OF the
public morals Every precaution against
sickness is OF great Importance. For thls rea'
son. we would ask attention to the fact that
we are burying our dead within q very short
distance from the public square. We have no
water works by which we are supplied Win
pure drinking water, and all are dependent
either upon the public spring or some Of the
many wells In town.
IT. therefore, the ground from which our wa
ter Is drawn, should become contaminated by
decornposing corpses, we cannot expect good
health, and even If the water should still be
pure the mere idea Of drinking water that has
seeped from graves is revolving.
The new railroad has opened up the most
desirable lots in town, but who would want
to occupy them, If we still go on deposltine
our dead in the neighborhood?
Our own opinion is, that the town council
should forbid burials within the incorporate
limits OF the village.
Another matter of vital Importance Is the
discontlnuance of the practice OF digging
sinks under the houses In our gardens A
common regard for the proprieties. and per-
sonal cleanliness should stop this practice,
even without any interference on the part OF
the town council.
If the ground becomes contaminated, now
is the water from our wells TO be pure?
