Some of the newspapers are disposed
to tease Editor Coe, of the Whitewater
Register, because in writing up a new
undertaking establishment he expressed
the hope that it would do prosperous
business. Yet it was a proper hope,
provided some enterprislng citizen
should be allowed to select the custo-
mers. There are a good many towns
where lively undertaking would be a
good thing if discrimination could be
used.
The Columbus Democrat places the
number of applicants for places on the
new slate board at 173. According to
Gov Peek there were only 81 who
urged their claims. Even out of that
number it seems reasonable to think
four men of larger experience than the
four new members could have been
found.

From the Moral and Legal Standpoint by
Mrs. Buell..
TIT address delivered at the M. Z. Broad
way church last evening by Mrs. Buell., sec
rotary of the National w. G. Il. T., drew a
large audience. The speakers word DIS were
both interesting and instructive ANA held
the close attention of her auditors. After
q very beautiful ana p~oetical introduction
of her subject illustrative of the spirit of
right and Of evil shs proceeded to consider
the question of temperance from two stand
points. the legal and moral aspects. She
hoped to make their distinction clear to tho
minds of her hearers. The moral question
is purely Il personal matter and rests be-
tween the individual and his God. The
legal question relates to the traffic and is Il
subject to be considered by laws and courts.
Temperance reform began more than 100
years ago in England, and without stopping
to consider the forces 30 far used it is
enough to know that they have brought it
thus far on its way and will be strong
enough to carry 1t ultimately to n SUCCESS
Jul end. For q long time simply the indi-
Sldual moral responsibility WAS considered
and pledges were circulated not for total
abstlnence but for abstinence on New Eng

apropos to Phillips Brooks and his eleva-
ton TO tho episcopate, says the New York
sun, it may be worth while to recall tho
witticism perpctrated at the great Boston
ian's expense by Henry Flanders, upon the
occasion some years ago when DIR. Brooks
was under consideration for a bishopric.
"Who is Phillips Brooks?' asked an n
g n Philadelphian. "Oh," said Flanders,

p~rrs1prNr Eliot, Of Harvard uni
y~ersity. in a talk to the New York re-
form club on questions of municipal
government, the other night, said:
"Threugh all the deterioration OF city
governments in this country, the town
Governments have remained good down
to the present day. The chief reason
for this seems to be that the best men
in the rural town can undertake the
service of the town without toog great
an interference with their regular oecu-
patton. A selectman, road commissioner,
or school commissioner in n small town
has n place of responsibility and local
influence, with, perhaps, some small
emolument, and he holds it without sur
fering any loss in his private business
In large cities, on the other hand, IL Is
impossible for the chief officers to at
tend properly to both public and private
duties. Moreover, city men OF character
and capacity are sure to be absorbed IN
their own affairs so completely that
| they give but a reluctant and spasmoulc
| attention to tho business of the public.
| Democratic freedom inevitably tends to
produce this devotion to their own at
fairs on the part Of Intelligent and active
men. A professional a merchant, OF
manufacturer cannot abandon his regu~
lar vocation to take municipal service
until his success in his profession or
business has been so great that he can
afford to impair OF dispense with his
ordinary annual earnings. There are,
in fact, but two classes of men in this
country who can, as a rule, enter the
public service at all without sacrificing
their individual interests. These two
classes are lawyers, and business men
whose business is already so we'll Or
ganized that they can temporarily aban-
don it without mourning any loss which
they care about"
MI. Eliot's proposed remedy is longer
tenure of office, and he is right. The
policy Of changing heads Of departments,
street commissioners, chiefs OF police,
fire marshals, etc, once in a twelve
month is short-sighted and vicious. The
mayor and other city officers should
have at least two years terms. Few
men are willing to give up desirable
places in private station for a single year
of official life.

Special Officer Mckenzie very neatly
caught the man, yesterday, who robbed
Homer Jennison's saloon, under the Grand
Central hotel, between W and three
O'Clock yesterday morning. AL Hoefke,
who is now in the city jail, confessed to
Sergt. Nicholson that he broke into the sa-
loon and carried way some cigars, two
bottles of champagne, and $3.50 in money,
which he found in the till. He hid the
cigars and champagne in an old sta &c coach
standing on Clore street, and Marshal Sims
discovered the cache. Mckenzie was de
tailed as a special to watch the coach. Yes
terday afternoon he saw Hoefke and James
Tobin taking the plumber ont of the coach
and slowing it away in a sack. AS they
were about to leave Mckenzie arrested the
men. Hoefke said Tobin had nothing to
do with tho robbery. After some question
ing the sergeant ascertained that Hoefkt
had served a term in Wisconsin for bur
glary. He was employed at ono time MS

port Wednesday, returned last night
with fire in her hold. The steamer had on
board 627 head Of cattle. 400 bales of cotton
and 10000 bushels of grain. Thu fire started
in the cotton, and the captain ordered the
matches battened down down at once.
Nothing could be done toward ex%tinguishing

and for this purpose barges wore secured.
