Our state suffered quite loss in the
recent burning of portion of the east
ern insane asylum at Pontiac, as state
buildings are never insured The es-
timated value of the building is 1895, 1888
and the damage is placed at 800, 900.
Ii speaks well for the systematic man
agement of this institution that over
900 patients were quietly and safely re-
moved from the burning building by
l73 attendants, the larger number of
whom are women. Had the lire occur
red in the night this would have been
impossible, and the mere destruction of
property becomes insignificant when
we contemplate the holocaust it might
have been among these poor, demented
creatures.
The citizens Of Pontiac are justly in
dignant over sensational report that
appeared in the Detroit Times, claiming
that many patients persisted in the
flames and giving many horrid details
that had no better authority than a
reporters heated imagination.

Thomas j. Welch, the absconding
supervisor who ran off with the election
returns in Onondaga county, n. Y,
was no sooner committed to the peni-
Tertiary than he received his pardon
from Gov. Hill. There seems to be no
limit to the executive power of the
Senator-Governor, and this action
serves to confirm the suspicious of those
who thought that Welch was being
shielded by the Governor.

One of our democratic exchanges in
reviewing the Soper downfall tries to
extract a crumb of consolation from the
general disgrace by saying, There has
been no effort to cover up anything
crooked, and the investigation now
making promises TO go deep into the
matter, regardless of who may get
hurt" 1t strikes us that any effort to
"cover it up" would have been about
as effectual as the attempted conceal

Complaint of a Typewriter.

l listened with interest recently to
an intelligent typewriter deliver her.
self on the subject of the English in
the papers she copies. She has an
office in a downtown office building
and does work for all classes of bust
ness men. "What surprised me
when / first began typewriting," said
she, "Was to find out how little sim
plicity. clearness and directness there
was in business mems style. The
papers l read, about everything
from mines to patent carriers, would
confuse the wits of a Socrates, they
are so verbose and involved and
confused, tos2y nothing about gram
mer that makes a subject singular
and u predicate plural, or scatters
capitals as if with a pepper box. We
typewriters have to straighten
out things like that, all the time, and
we have to be as diplomatic about it
we courtiers as we'll. five don't do
it the meu see or find out there is
something wrong when it is done,
and then they hate us and take their
work somewhere else; but we must
not ask them about any changes;
that mortities 'em and makes
'em mad; and, again, if we make
change that they get onto and don't
happen to know that it is mistake
corrected, why then they flare up.
They are always writing big articles,
the big guns are, about what should
be taught in the public schools. l
can tell 'em what should come be-
tore drawing, or chemistry, or alge-
bra, and that is the ability to write
plain English on plain subjects. And
it doesn't now, can tell you that"
