FITNESS NO LONGER A TEST FOR
OFFICE.

Edtcard P. Cldrk IA the AUGUST Forum.
The colonies inherited from England
the tradition that the conduct of public
affairs should be committed to a class OF
men who had SHOWN especial oualifica-
lions for the task and had been trained
for ii; and that such men, when they
had proved their fitness, should be Ike pit
in office indefinitely. This was partlc u
larry true in New England. With
the departure from the stage of the
generation which carried through the
Revolution and established the new
government a change came over the pub
lie mind. IL was now established that
lone man was as good as another" at the
polls. The next step was easy and ineyl-
table. II one man were as well qualified
for the suffrage as another. why not as
fit to hold Officer The old theory
had tended to keep the statesman long in
office. Such individuals as Strong and
Trumbull were regarded as men who
were infinitely better qualified to govern
Massachusetts and Connecticut than
Smith or Brown, and therefore it seemed
obviously the best policy TO keep them In
the executive chair year after rear. But
when it came TO be accepted as a fact
that Smith or Brown was really as fit to
be governor as Strong or Trumoull, 1t
naturally followed that neither Smith
nor Brown had any claim to hold the
Office long. In truth. il seemed only fair
thar Jones and Robinson should also be
given a chance, aud the shorter the time
that Smith and Brown served, the better
would be the opportunities of the rest.

BRIEF AND STORMY.

One more case of domestic woe is to be
revealed in the Court Of Chancery.
Frederick c. Carman, of YORK street,
claims TO be the unfortunate victim Of
marital wretchedness, and he has brought
suit against his wife for divorce. Mr..
Carman, about ten years ago, sought
fame and fortune in the wilds Of Colo
RADIO, aud In his search met Miss Hannah
L. Decker, who hail d from Illinois. They
were married III March, 1882. After a
ratner stormy life the young wife, in
February, 1884, it is alleged, deserted her
husband. He never saw her but once
after that. She had returned to Denver
and he met her on the street in the COM
pany of a Mr.. Scott. He asked her adj
dress aud called soon afterward to see
her, but was told that she and Scott had
gone to the tneatre. He returned TO tais
city and employed Randolph. Condit &

French and American Peas.

A grocer ON Grove street recently
displayed a sign, French peas, two
cans for a quarter" That is remark
ably cheap for French peas and the
price no doubt caught many unwary
housekeepers. Perhaps they will be
interested in knowing that a promi-
nent firm in Boston was yesterday
fined s25 for selling adulterated
French peas. The vegetable had
been given a fictitious color by a pre-
paration of copper. The defence vas
unique. The firm set up the pretence
that eyen if the peas were colored
with poisonous matter the vendors
were not responsible because they
were imported and sold in the origi-
nal package. The court brushed it
aside and imposed the full penalty.
When a reputable firm is offered any
article at less than market rates it is
the firms clear duty to ascertain the
cause of such reduction before it pro-
ceeds to offer such goods to its Gus
toners. As a rule French canned
goods are the dearest of the sort in the
market forthe reason that the French
law is very strict. 1t requires that
tanners shall use only perfect fruits
and that the ans shall be made of
block tin. 1t is a perfectly safe pro-
position, therefore, that these adul-
Grated French peas were prepared
expressly for the American market.
Moral:-When you want French
peas don't go cunning for cheap
goods.
Moral No. 2:-Ameriean peas are
good enough for any one.'

Rev. Mr.. Wells Is determined to
Make it a Success.

The much talked OF Peoples Palace d.
which Is to be connected with the Tabeg-
nacle. will be a reality In about tn ee
years. Already $4,000 has been raised
fur this purpose aud it has nearly all
been expended in charging the old read
Ing room and erecting a frame building
which fronts on Grand street.
Have you the plans of the Peoples
Palace YETI" | asked Mr.. Wells last
Eve have" was the reply. Architect
Bettcner submitted them some time age
but we have not approved them as yet.
The structure proposed by Mr.. Bettcher
will cost about $40. 600, IL will be n hand
some three story and basement building
of stone a brick. We estimate the
probable cost of fitting this building up
at $4,000 more, SO that we need in all
$150,O00 or this sum $40, 900 has been
collected. but has been expend ed In the
erection OF the temporary buildings on
Grand street. The houses Nos. 1S6 and
1888 were recently purchased for the
Palace site. Inc basement of the tenn
porary structure, which Is 100 feet long.
will be utilized as an amusement hall.
The auditorium will be used for games
aud general exercise. On the second
floor Is a hat and coat room which leads
Into the gymnasium, which will be sixty
five feet iung. twenty-four feet wide and
sixteen feet high. The two houses are
connected with the temporary Palace.
In them there are sixteen rooms. which
will be converted into reading and re-
ception rooms aud a parlor.
ION the east side in the basement I'M
der the extension viii be the natstorium,
which Is twenty-tix Ieet long. twelve feet
wide and six feet deep, with a capacity of
IA, 900 gallons OF water. Bath rooms
completely furnished ave been placed
neal the swimming tank. All the build
ings are TO be heated by steam and will
probably be opened by September 1. The
buildings are finished inside with hard
pine"
These temporary buildings will be util-
lied until enough money Is collected TO
warrant the breaking of ground for the
$780, 900 palace. INT cash is coming in in
small sums but is going out quite as fast.
Mr.. Wells IS a worker, however, and is us
full of hope as of energy. IL absolutely
necessary the building wi be put ny on
the installment plan, one story nj a TINA
The project will be carried to a successful
termination, no matter how SLOW the
stages.

The quarterly meeting of the Grand

one, as il is stated on good authority that
Eureka Section is TO be suspended. A
moonlight excursion was held a few
weeks ago by members of the Tabernacle
under the name OF the Eureka Section,
Cadets of Temperance. Gentlemen who
were on the excursion aliege that liquor
was sold at the o water counter, aud
that men were intoxicated on the boat.
These charges reached the ears of the
Grand Section, ant Eureka Section will
probably be bounced from the organiGa-
tion. IL is said that Tabernacle represent
atiyes who had charge of the excursion
paid Eureka Section a certain percentage
Of the profits for the privilege Of using the
name of the Section.
