THE REV. HUGH o. PETNEcosT, who was
turned out of an eastern church three or
four years ago because of his socialistic
ideas and who has since been preaching an
archistic doctrines in New York, pro-
claimed his creed last Sunday. He said ::
AZ believe there is no Con. i believe there
is no supreme person who is in personal re-
lation to human beings, hearing and an
swering prayer. / believe there are no
devils, no demons. no angels, no conscious
personal existence after death, no such
places or conditions as heaven or hell, and
that the Bible like all other books, is a
purely human production. l believe the
church is an entirely imaginary institution
I believe there Is no state. The state, like
GOD and the church, is wholly imaginary
thing" Mr.. PESTEcosr VIII progress only
little further when he will not believe in
soap, but will believe in dynamite.

THAT CELEBRATION.

1t was a noble ambition which prompted
the Patriotic Sons Of America to celebrate
the Fourth Of July, but now that the affair
is over The HERALD will remind those who
arranged the programme, selected the
speakers and 50 On that they
would have acted more in har-
mony with the spirit of the day il
they had not taken so much pains to make
the celebration distinctively Republican
and Liberal. And we also suggust that it
was in extremely bad taste for the i'm
ported orator to take advantage Of the oc-
casion to deliver Republican stump speech.
The Fourth of July doesn't mean party
politics, either local or general. 1t is day
when citizens should, and good ones do, for
get that they are anything else than Amer
leans celebrating the anniversary Of the
mightest event in the history of the
world so far as the jewellers on this
continent arc concerned. 1t ID always to
be regretted when the day is taken advant-
age of to say and do things which are
out OF place and discordant Perhaps the
mistake on the part Of the Patriotic Sons
was not intentional; we sincerely hope it
was not. But It was . mistake all the
same, a. q good many arc now ready to de-
clare. THE HERALD does not refer to the
matter because 1t thinks Mr.. CALDWELL or

THE NOMINATIONS.

Before another issue of TaE HERALD ap-
pears the Democratic county convention
will have been held and the nominations
made to the offices to be filed by the voting
next month. Besides those Of the precincts,
there are four of these Offices collector,
superintendent OF schools and two select
men. Good men have been sent to the con-
vention, and naturally they will act for the
best; yet it will not be out of place to ad-
wise the greatest care and wisdom in the
selection Of candidates. The geography of
the county should be takeu into account, as
well q the interest Of the various sections;
then the peculiar condition Of political
matters should be considered, and above
everything else the character of the
men designated for the places should gov
ern in the selections. There are extremely
important offices. ono OF them involving

the others who talked did any real harm,
our confidence in the clear-hesdedness and
good Judgment Of the people being such as
to lead US to believe that they cannot be
led sstray by political clap trap issued
under the guise of Fourth of July GRAFTON.
We mention the matter merely for the
purpose Of reminding the managers of
Independence day celebrations that the
patriots of this country are not confined to
the Republican and Liberal parties.

ture of the county taxes, and the other OIL
cial will have general supervision Of the
public schools 1t will, therefore, be seen
that trustworthy, reliable men should be
chosen-men of good Judgment and execu-
tive ability. II will be necessary also to
name men whose Democracy is beyond
question, because the rank and file of the
party have made up their mind that while
a mans politics may not qualify him for
the performance of the duties of an office
the absence Of party politics must be bar
TO the nomination. In other words, only
Democrats can be nominated in Democratic
con gentions.
THE HERALD is sincere when it says 1t
firmly believes that the ticket made up to-
morrow will be elected by satisfactory
majority, and because of this belief we
want the very best men nominated that the
administration will be so honest atie and
wise that it will command the respect OF
the community and rebound TO the credit OF
the county Democracy.

The ABOLITION of the new military divis-
ions, announced yesterday, is reform in
the right direction. They were absolutely
useless, and as an intermediate channel OF
official communication, they were rather
hindrance than a help in the dispatch OF
business. The only excuse for maintaining
them thus long was to give the three major
generals a superior command over the orig
adler generals who commanded the depart
ment. This was particularly done as q
mark of recognition 10 SHERIDAN when he
commanded the military division OF the
Missouri, embracing about all the terri
tory subject to Indian outbreaks and, in
fact, the larger part of the United States.
This consideration being removed, 1t was
but meet and proper that the change should
be made.

BEFORE THE bosses cracked their whips
over the heads of the Liberal remnant the
latter vociferated loudly for non-partisan
schools. IN the call for a citizens conven-
ton in the First precinct to nominate two
members for the board of education, the
names Of some of the most extreme Lib
erals appeared. 1t is but natural that The
education of our youth should be kept
aloof from the strife and rancor of bitter
craftsmanship. But since the bosses issued
their edict that they must have the pap
and patronage OF the schools, or die, there
has been change of front. Let us see
how many craven towards there are who
will surrender the best interests of their
children rather than incur the displeasure
of the autocrats.

Earrings of the Greeks and Romans.

Ladies and waiting maids among the
ancient Greeks and Romans wore plain
hoops of gold or silver in their ears, and as
time progressed these became more elabo-

Many Roman matrons possessed earrings
Of the most costly and gorgeous descrip-

fected by those Of rank and wealth were

day, and in many cases they were attached
in the form Of pendants.

TISKLEToP's CRIME AND OTHER STORIES. By
George r. Sims. New York: Charles l.
Webster & Co Price 30 cents
In this paper covered volume are col
lected nineteen short stories, all humorous
or satirical and all written in a gay and
rollicking style. "Tinkletop's Crime" Is
one OF the best. A cranky old fellow is led
to believe that he has instigated murder,
and the merry conspirators freely bleed
him until they get all the fun possible out
Of the affair. The collection furnishes ma
terial for pleasant reading at odd times.
IN THE GAFIA's CLUTcHES.-Don Ti5urico.
A Tale OF New York and Mexico. BY I. b.
Connery New York; the Minerva Publishing
Company. Price 80 cents.
We take il that the author has under
taken to picture certain well known society
people of New York in such a way that
| their friends will know 10 whom ne refers.
AT any rate he has given us an entertain
ing story, one full OF pathos, of excellent
description, and of satire and humor. The
title Is misleading and ought not TO have
been used because it conveys the impress
sion that the author has tried 10 sell the
book on its sensational title rather than its
merits.

In this, one of his most useful works, the
author tells US how pure water may be OBJ
tanned in city and country. He says: ''If
we could run a pipe far up into the air and
draw our water from the clouds, we should
be spared n world of trouble and annoy
ance. Up there is water distilled by the
sun, just II 2 o, pure enough to satisfy the
atomic soul lOngings of the chemist him
self. But the moment it gets fairly con-
densed into available form and begins to
fall through the dir, it draws into solution
atmospheric gases, oxygen, nitrogen aud
carbonic acid. AS the rain drops sweep
through the dusty air, they wash 1t out and
carry down the deleterious particles When
il reaches the earth and washes the dirty
surfaces il takes up many impurities Of
organic matter" Then he proceeds to tell
how the water is purified, discussing the
matter in its various forms, and on the
whole presenting most useful little book.
