THE NEW COUNCIL.

Tho Democratic executive committee
met last night and closed the doors
against further aspirauts for political
honors at the hands of the Democratic
party in the coming municipal election.
The general tickets fare well enough
as to candidates, but when the prospec-
tive nominations for councilman are
considered there is room for serious con-
sideration.
In the First ward the only old mem
Der of Council who is now eligible is Mr..
r. McClelland.
There are several strong names on
the list but they are all new.
In the Second ward r. J. Eckloff has
had experience and President Buckner
i S host. The rest are new
In the Third ward George C. McCahan
is the only old member who has devel-
oped strength in Council
In the Fourth but one member OF the
present Council appears on the list.
Tho Fifth presents entirely new
names.
The TIMES means no disparagement
of the gentlemen who will be the Demo.
cratic nominees. 1t recognizes among
them men who are as strong as the
average of the present body, mon who
will even rank with the best; but with
so much raw material the machinery of
tho now body will havo many jars be-
fore it gets worn down to is bearings.
There arc serious doubts if so much
raw material can be properly assimi-
lated. There are hardly enough of the
old Council in sight to leaven the lump.
The bad effects of strict party lines and
primary nominations are visible even
now.
Party lines in municipal affairs are
serious mistake, and Roanoke will have
to learn that it is a mistake just as she
is learning that some other things arc
mistakes-by trying and finding out

A Good Thing to Keep at Hand.
From the Troy Kansas Chief.

Some years ago we were very much
subject to severe spells of cholera
morbus; and now when we feel any
of the symptoms that usually pre-
coed that ailment, such as sickness
at the stomach, diarrhea, etc, we
become scary. We have found Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhea Remedy the very thing to
straighten one out in such cases, and
always keep it about. We are not
writing this for a pay testimonial,
but to let our readers know what is
good thing to keep handy in the
house. For sale by all dealers.

After the publication of his first
volume of poems reviewer in the
Atlantic Monthly, at that day an
authority upon literature, wrote con
temptuously of his yankee rhymes"
and cited string Of unmusical com
binations, such as "morn" with
"dawn," etc, but the poet survived
the critic, and the proem to his later
volumes contains the following
apologize stanza:
"The harshness of Northern cline
The rudenesS of an untaught ear,
The Earring words of one whose rhyme
Beat often Labor's hurried time,
Or Duty's rugged march through storm
and strife,
Are here"
Disraeli in his Lothian says with
the essence of refined sarcasm: Go
morrow the critics will begin. You
know who the critics are? The men
who have failed in literature and
art"
Fortunately critic spleen did not
drive our poet of the people to an
early grave as it did poor Keats.
There is an entire absence of wit
or humor in Whittier's poesy, and in
this respect he resembles that slut
tering prince of good fellows,
Charles Lamb. One fails to discover
even in his most ambitious flights,
any suggestion of his having been "a
midnight student DER the dreams of
sages." He quaffed his inspirational
| draughts from the fount of Nature,
and he says in the Barefoot Boy:
"Eschewing books and tasks
Nature answers all he asks'-
And the charm of his song is due
to that hermit-like simplicity that
found in wild birds note, hum of in
sect, and the seductive whispers of
the wind among the pines of his ma
tive State deathless melody that
he so happily translated.
r. H. Stoddard says:
"Me whom the crowded city holds
Whose feet have worn Its stony high
ways,
Familiar with its loneliest street,
Its ways are never my ways"
And the ways of the city and the
world had no charms for the Quaker
poet.
Unlike Bryant, Lowell, Longfel
low, Holmes and Emerson, he
never left the shores of his native
land, and he tells us:
81 know not how in other lands
The changing seasons come and go,
What spendor falls on Syrian sands,
Or purple lights on Alpine snow
Nor with what pomp the sunrise waits
On Venice at her watery gates,
a dream to me is Amos vale,
And the Alhambra's halls are but s
travellers tale"
After the correspondence between
Carlyle and Emerson was publish
ed. Whittier shocked by the cheer
full frankness with which those two
intellectual giants discussed the mer
and measures of their time, ordered
all of his private correspondence tc
be burned, thus destroying valuable
record of his personal observation:
during the exciting times through
which he passed, for surely the asso
ciate of such men as Garrison, Phil
lips, and the coterie of writer's be
fore mentioned, the Carey sisters
and all the brilliant galaxy of star
that glowed in the armament o
literature that have now darklet
into space, must have written hi
impressions in enduring prose.

The Latest in Gloves-Why Neckwear

New styles in gloves come out as the
season goes on. The very latest is shade
Of cream gold, with spear head back and
red stitching, and one single large mother

its kind.
1t is said that there was noticeable rush

was discovered that the buyers were of

given them scarf pin, and, as result,
they were out looking for the best scarf 10

The favorite high class top coat OF the
season is a neavy dun finished black
beaver, with velvet collar ample, but not
too noticeabiy so. The lapel is made to
roll quite low down to admit the disclos-
ure OF good sized scarfing. The single
breasted style hold precedence. 1t is
roomsome in fit. and fails gracefully from
the shoulder to the calf.
There has not been in many years such
Il general wearing of kid and dogskln
gloves. Nor have the shops made such
showing of gloves. This greater chance
of selection mas undoubtedly helped the
sale. Craven tan Is no longer the one
color of the season. There are numerous
shades to choose from, and there are var

doings. at one of Cronheim's Sunday
night sacred concerts in his Hoboken
dive. The disgraceful proceedings
may not be renewed tomorrow night;
but if they are not, it will be only be-
cause the proprietor is behind the

The only pity about the whole
thing is that he is not there a convict,
awaiting transportation to Trenton

Of corruption, disgrace to civilized
