A Sunday Schools Shining Example.

SELDOM does the shining light of a Sunday
school attain eminence in politics, but John
K Richards, who was nominated the other
day for Attorney General of Ohio by the Re-
publicans, is one of the rare exceptions. A
clergyman who was his pastor more than
quarter of a century ago said to me yester-
day: "Mr Richards was very good boy and
a very bright one in my Sunday school in
Ironton, and his success at the bar and in
politics pleases while 1t doesn't surprise
me. He comes of good stock; his father,
Samuel Richards, was Quaker, born near
Steubenville, who prospered in the railroad
business when it first opened about Ironton,
where he still resides. Young John K.
Richards was member of my Sun
day school in the Presbyteria
Church at Ironton, between 1865 and 1870,
and may say that he entered the church
under my guidance. He had even then un-
usual ability as a speaker, and whenever
an occasion called for oratory in the Sunday
school OF the High School, when presenta-
tions were made or entertainments held,
John K Richards was sure to be chosen to
make the speech or take prominent part
in the entertainment. Afterward he went to
promise of his career in the Ironton High
School Then he returned home to practice
law and pursue politics with such good effect
that he is now State Senator and leader
of the bar, with good chance to be Oh1o's
Attorney General 1t is rather hard for me
torealize that the small boy remember in
the schoolroom can now write Honorable
before his name and sway conventions and
senateS with his eloquence."

STOCK INSPECTION.


A case of we'll defined tuberculosis in a
valuable cow was discovered in this city a
day or two ago. In the opinion of the
veterinary surgeon the animal was beyond
recovery, hence she was killed, and an
examination resulted in the discovery
noted. To what extent diseases OF this
character can be transmitted from animals
to man, we do not pretend to say, but 1t is
reasonable to assume that the milk from a
diseased COW will not be pure, and that the
milk will be affected by the disease atfilct-
ing the animal
The incident referred to reminds us that
Utah, with its extensive livestock inter
ests, is practically without law which
can be employed to protect either stock
from infection or the people from

to provide in this matter! 1t seems to US
that TIE interest involved lis too great to
continue the risk. A law should be en-
acted which would procure proper inspec-
ton of live stock, without permitting the
owners to be harried and put to unneces-
sarY expense, and this should ne done IN
the interest of the stockgrowers them
selves as well as for the protection OF The

THE COLOSSUS OF WORLDS.

In one OF the exchanges we ind credited
to CAMILLE PLANTATION, long but inter
esting article on the subject of the planet Of
JUPITER. An occasional publication of this
sort is good thing to recall attention to
the fact that this little speck of a world we
live on is not by any means the biggest
part of creation. To be sure we possess
great many things here as to which no
other planet can compete with US, SO far as
we know; and it would really be astonish-
ing II any whirling giant OF the sky could
compare with US, for instance, in the kind
of men and women we have. One thing
comforting about it is we are not likely to
be confronted with denials Of any merits
we may lay claim to. Like ALEXANDER
SELKIRK's title, our right there is none to
dispute
JUPITER is not what one might call very
near neighbor, since travelling at the rate
of mile minute, it would take one more
than one hundred and sixty years
to get there, and we are not par
ticular about few hundred thousand miles.
either, Whereas the earth is $1,000 miles
IN circumference, JUPITER is $4,000 miles
through, the circumference being 275, 900
miles at the equator. JUPITER's excess of
volume over ours is 1894 times. At the
same distance from US that the moon is il

pale, inconstant luminary. How much
larger it was before the ware FLAN-
MARION does not tell us.
JUPITER is no slouch of traveller, him
each one of which has its special years and
seasons, and perhaps sessions of Congress-
it passes its orbit of more than !, 900 600 O0O
miles in 4, 332 days, going at the moderate
gait OF 100000 miles day. In this respect
JUPITER is not lin itp as compared with our
planet, since the earth trots along at three
times that velocity. But on its axis JUPITER
swings with terrific speed, knocking off a
complete day in ten hours, minus one
minute. This observance of the ten hour
law chops daylight, including twilight in

THF RUSH TO THE CITIES.

The census taken last year discloses the
fact that throughout the United States in
the last decade, there has been an unnar-
allelea rush from the country into the
cities. Doubtless the cause of this tn
some extent, will be found in the general
depression of agricultural pursuits. The
amount of cash that may be realized from
the products of an ordinary farm does not
amount to much, and since we live in q dav
when the results of labor are measured nv
cash. farming does not seemingly hold ont
very strong Inducements TO the young man
anxious to make his way in the world. The
wages paid the farm laborer may he said
to be ridiculously small in comparison "a

Hence young men forsake agricultural pur-
suits and rush to the cities to engage in
other employment where results are mora
satisfactory. But this we believe only ac-
counts in part for the rush to the cities
The attractions of city life are responsible
for much of it. The glare of the citv,s

NEWSPAPER INDEXES.

1t is universally conceded that there is
no better index to the character of city
then the newspapers it supports If a
place is fourishing, if the merchants are
enterprlsing, if the population is intelli-
gent, II the spirit of 90 is in the people, the
facts will be shown in the columns of Its
newspapers. A city may contain coInmo-
dious hotels, elegant banking and mercan-
tile structures. large entertainment halls,
theatres, and all the outside appearances of
metropoiiIanism, but if it's journals are
dull and listless, or fail to exhibit the in
fallible signs of prosperity, strangers pass
1t by with significant shrugs.
Every mans business is advertised by a
good paper, whether his announcements
are in it or not. Every business man is
benefited by the attention attracted to his
city and the increase of population which
comes of ii, by the continuous and iucreas-
ing dropping into all channels of the morn
ing paper. II is not often, however, that
he takes this important and unquestionable
TACT into consideration. Some merchants
for instance, who consider themselves very
good citizens, and who feel real interest
IN the welfare and progress OF their city,
not only permit other merchants TO do the
biggest share of supporting the
newspapers, but complain that their
town papers do not compare with the
sheets published in ST. Louis, Chicago,
or New York in point of this, that or the
other. Other merchants, recognizing the
value of advertising in increasing the
number of their customers, seek the
columns of the newspapers as the most
advantageous method, without thinking
that thereby they are contributing in an
indirect manner to the city's interests, as
well
In different degree these considerations
apply to circulation, which, after all, is
the best test of journalistic success. The
cost OF newspapers bears so inconsiderable
relation to their value their indis-
pensability, as we may say-that
one never hears without surprise
the excuse for not taking them
that they are too expensive There
Is, indeed, nothing for which money is paid
out in this country so cheap as

der is that there is anybody that

OF COURSE.

And so Secretary NOBLE is going to OBJ
pose the movement looking to the abolition
of the Utah commission ana announces in
advance that he will do what he can to con-
tlnue the board. This was to be expected.
Secretary NOBLE is a Republican. He be-
longs to that party which believes in pro-
viding places at the public crib for all the
politicians who can be made useful in a
partisan sense; to that party which elects
billion dollar Congresses and then applauds
the reckless and extravagant appropriation
Of money to party favorites and
for partisan advantages. Secretary
NOBLE is member of the Republican
party which believes in denying
to the people self-government the func-
lions being administered by a central
power. 1t is perfectly natural that the
gentleman should oppose the discontinue
ance of the Utah commission. He couldn't
be good Republican and favor the doing
away with that useless body for the nam
tenance of which no shadow of excuse can
be presented. The commission provides
five stalls opening to the public crib, at an
expense of 5000 year. 1t furthermore
takes between $40, 600 and $50, 900 more an
nually from the public treasury. And
finally it is a direct administration and
control of election affairs from the regis
tration of,voters to the counting of the bal
lots aud the issuance of certificates, by the
federal government. This lattar is a big
point with man like NOBLE.
THE HERALD looked for opposition from
the secretary of the interior. we also
expect the scheme to relieve the treasury
and free the people will be opposed by

and by all Republicans in good standing.
And yet we believe the movement will win.
Fortunately NOBLE and his associates do

THE action of the National Republican
Executive committee in regard to Utah
representation was virtually d condemna-
ton of that abnormal, useless aud discred-
liable monstrosity, the Utah commission.
Yet it is said Secretary NOBLE, in his
report, proposes to recommend its contin-
uance. The commission is nothing but a
long tail to fractional kite, and stands for
nothing except little local organization
without platform, principle or policy.
