IT would be well for the Morning News
to be honest enough to quote straight.
It tries to make the EVENING JOURNAL
declare that the leaders Of the Demo
cratic party have not spoken of the Five
Commissioners bill, by quoting a para
graph asking the leaders to express
themselves again, which was followed by
this paragraph:
II that bill should not pass they should
say so publicly n Il should pass, they
should say so with equal publicity. Let
each one Of them speak out for the in
formation OF the rank and file Of the
party and for the information OF the
general public II Is true that our most
distinguished leaders recommended the
change in county government during the
last canvass, and that the party stands
pledged to accomplish county reform In
the cognste form presented then and pre-
scented now in the Five Commissioners
bill, But some Of our people, and even
some OF our legislators with imperfect
memories, seem TO have forgotten those
facts.
Enough has been said, but some Of our
so-called Democrats have weak faith and
short memories. They are so uncertain in
their loyalty to the Democratic party and
to the principles Of eternal justice that
they are always going about apologizing
and Bringing to the Republicans as If they
were ashamed Of themselves and Of their
party too. They are right to be ashamed
Of themselves and the party would be
glad II they would manifest shame
enough fol It to leave It.

THE mind Of the Morning News man
works In a curious way to reveal his own
Inconsistency and prejudice always, but
this morning he presented a phenomenal
exposition Of his inability TO agree with
himself. He gave six lines to the alleged
crime, he prefers TO consider the "blottcd
uot"ln one of the bills before the LegIsla
ture In separate paragraph following
he says;
Some newspaper men have an idea that
only reports Of the evil deeds Of men are
to b considered as news. The good that
men do Is worthier Of perpetuation, but
1t does not become public property as
quickly as their evil acts.
Following that are three scant thin
lines Of feeble praise for the great reform
Of putting the prisoners TO work. The
inconsistency In giving the evil deed Of
the "blot" greater prominence than
the good that this man. Judge
Ball has done is sufficient to cause the
reader to hold his breath and wonder
what sort Of mixture eomposes the brain
of the News man, but the possibility
that the reform is not maintained be.
cause 1t is a good deed of Democrat and
Of Democratic Legislature renders the
contrast greater and more reprekensibie
even from the stand point Of the News
itself

Williams was elected as staunch
Democrat, capable and willing to carry

Until within the last few weeks when
every whimsical and absurd plea Of the
Republicans to prevent the passage of
the Five Commissioners bill was received

word has been uttered in condemnation

The subject of county reform has been
before the people for more than two
years; the canvass of the Democratic
party was made on the promise Of =
change in tie county government; the
generally accepted change was that

in the Five Commissioners bill; all of the
public speakers recommended the change

SHINY attention was drawn last
night to the paragraph In the EVENING
JOURNAL having reference TO the secre
tary Of the Board Of Lady Managers OF
the Worlds Columbian Exposition In
my opinion, Miss Couzins's position is
well taken She is the appoiniee of the
Board of Lady Managers and not Of the
Executive Committee and, for this reason,
heI"tenure OF Office depends upon the
pleasure of majority of the Board
How far the Board of Control hiss ex-
csedei its powers in granting permission
TO the Executive Committee to nullify
the action Of the entire Board, is nice
question and one which will require time
TO work out a solution In the meantime,

THERE are two words in the Latin
tongue which are taken to signify man. :"
bat which. when analysed, bear widely
different Specifications. They are the
words homo and vir. The trouble with
the Democratic party is that it possesses
p snty OF homos, but. as yet, no virs have
appeared on the surface. For the In
formation of the general reader we win
say that homo means a plain ordinary
man, while on the contrary vir means q
man possessing virility-a quality which
is well adapted for leadership Tbs
Democratic party undoubtedly needs
meu possessing virility. They are in the
party. but not assuming the leadership

AT Trinity Church on Sunday Rev h.
Ashton Henry preached a sermon Oh
church unity, stating and approving OF
the movement insugurated by the Epis-
ropal Church, for the union of all
churches. There are strong undercur
rents Of unrest Of various kinds in all
churches and It is not strange that some
broad minded and liberal men have de-
termiped to attempt to utilize the agitation
TO promote general Christian unity among
the churches, which seem to differ chiefly
on government and form OF worship
rather than in essential doctrines.
