As previously noted in these columns
the Dell Rapids Times, staunch Gepub
lican paper, by the way, was recently
sold to d. b. and H. w. WARD. Thu
former gentleman has for the past four
years been employed OH the paper, and,
1t appears, is a Democrat. The latter is
a Republican. In taking the manage
ment and control Of the paper the firm
states clearly that the Times will, as
heretofore. be staunchly Republican
NOW, this statement ought to be suffi-
cicnt for the patrons OF the paper and
the public. But it seems it is not.
There appears TO be few Republicans
In Dell Rapids and vicinity whose mental
horizons extend about as far as their
noses. 70 their limited vision the idea
that the Times can be truly good and an
advocate of Simon pure ReDablicahism
with one OF its proprietnrs Democrat
presents an anomaly utterly confound-
ing, and there has been talk of starting
another paper. Why don't they give the
boys a chance? Or do these people IN
Dell Rapids think their $3.50 year buys
the editor body and soul. Some of the
funds and bequests that are being used
to build institutions for imbeciles should
be devoted to transporting few Dell
Rapids folks beyond the confines of Min
nehaha county out into the cosmopolitan

would bs into tie big newspaper offices
and acqaaint them with the writer's who
ill up the editorial columns OF the great
dailies. 1t would enlighten them coz
siderably at inding Democrats on tile
stats of Republican journals and Repub-
licans grinding out tariff reform editor
lals on the Democratic dailies. The
Chicago Weekly Inter Ocean has probab-
ly the largest circulation in South Dako-
ia Of any Republican paper. How many
know the name of its editor or care, or
know, only by supposition, what ticket
he votes, or the politics or religion of
his staff who write the editorials. Re-
publicans subscribe for the Inter Ocean
because they like the paper and its
politics-tiiats all they pay for and that's
all they expect. In the country districts
it's a little different, of course; every
body knows tho editor, but there is no
reason why he should not be allowed to
preserve his individuality with the same
freedom that is universally. accorded his
more secluded city contemporary. Let
the Dell Rapids fellows keep their shirts
on and give the Times fair show for
its white alley. IL its Republicanism
proves to be off color then it will be time
to do something, If, as we opine, it
turns out to be all 0. K. they will be
set of blankcty blank nincompoops if
they worry about how often its editors

COMMUNICATIONS.

A Good Time to Settle the Brick Sidewalk Business.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 It is stated by 8 morning paper that the committee on streets has ordered the sbo- lition of 150 brick sidewalks. If this is true an excellent op portunity is now af- forded to resist the enforcement of the present absurd and oppressive city ordi- nance which forbids the relaying of such walks. The brick sidewalk, when kept in perfect condition, is, as has been shown by long experience here and elsewhere, and as 8 very little observation, especially in wet weather, will convince anyone, the dryest and most agreeable of any for st least 99-100 of the year. One of its great mer- it's is the facility and chespness with which 1t can be repaired, and the preju- dice which is so studiously fostered in this city against them by interested parties has arisen largely from the fact that the city authorities have allowed many of them to be neglected until they have become worn and uneven. The proper remedy is not the abolition of such walks, but an order to put them in perfect order and their efi- cient supervision thereafter. The cost of such improvement would be slight, com pared with their entire reconstruction in flag or concrete, and the result equally or more satisfactory to every ybody-except, possibly, to dealers in those rival materials
 The brick sidewalk is extensively used in many other cities which have passed the "villags or colonial stage" including Bos- ton, Worcester, Springfield, Providence, Newark, Philadelphia, Baltimore and oth- CTS, and in no one of them has the idea of discarding them even been thought of. It would seem that with us the burdens of property owners are not heavy enough to satisfy some of our city fathers, when an extra and needless taxation of from S10,
 900 to $15, ,000 Is thrown upon 150 such persons at single stroke. Let the proper ty owners who are affected by this order of the street committee make stand against it in their own interest and the in- terest of the general public. And let every other owner of brick walks make his influence felt for the repeal of the prohib- ition ordinance, and for 6 more thorough enforcement hencsforth of those which re- quire such walks and all others to be kept in good condition.

EVIDENCES OF CIVILIZATION,

It is evident that the European powers will either have to fight soon or make an agreement not to fight. They cannot go on forever increasing their armies and vic ing with each other in stupendous and costly military preparations of all kinds. Captain Molard, of the military school of St. Cyr, has been studying tue armies of Europe and their relative growth since 1869. France had then militia and regu- lar soldiers to the number of 1850, 900 men; Germany, 1,30O,0O0; Russia, 1,10O,- 900; Austria, 50,OOO; Italy. 570, ,0OO; Swift zerland, 150,000; and Belgium, 95,000. This year the French army has risen to 2,500, ,000, the German to 2,417, ,00o, the Russian to 2,451 ,0OO, the Austrian to 1,050, 900. the Italian to 1,514, ,0e0, the Swiss to 212 ,O0O, and the Belgian to. 12s, 900. When the new military laws come into full effect the French army will comprise 4, ,350,- 900 men; the Germen, 5,000,000; the Russian, 1000, 900; the Austrian, 1 ,900,- GOO; the Italian, 2,236, ,0O0; the Swiss, 4S9,000; and the Belgian, 25s, 900. The military estimates of Russia, Ger many, Italy, Denmark, Sweden, Nor way and Roumania have more than doubled since 1869. The Swiss army estimates were in that year 2,5Oo, 900 francs. They are now 45. 900, 900. Europe now devotes nearly five milliards of francs @ year to her fighting forces. In 1870 she could at the utmost bring 1000, ,O00 of soldiers into active service. She now dlsposes of 12, : 800, ,0O0, and will soon have g, ,000,00O.
 Twenty-two million men, and those the most able-bodied, form 8 great force to take away from creative labor. They will be tremendous tax on those who remain at work. But Germany wants to be ready to annihilate France, France wants to be ready to wipe out Germany, and Russia, England and the other countries want to be ready for whatever may happen. The whole situation is startling commentary on the civilization which is boasted of in most of the countries that stand ready to kill and piunder.

But they are not in the least after the manner of the Greek god, as he exists in art and fiction. This model has an ideal height and strength, massive shoulders, 6 statuesque head, with closely curling hair and an unruff1ed repose.

With this enumeration my state ment that he Is handsome may not appear to accord. Nevertheless, he is a good looking fellow; his spare form is oftsn tall; the quickly turning eyes are wonder fully brilliant, the dark face Is lighted by the glesm of white teeth, the gait is very graceful, the step light. The Albanian costume, which was adopted after the rev. olution as the national costume for the whole country, Is smsxing.

It consists of 8 cap with long tassel, full white shirt, aR embroidered jacket with open sleeves, 6 fight girdle, the white kilt or fustanills, long leggings, with bright t-colored garters, and usually shoes with turned up toes. The general impression given is of men striding about in short, white ballet petti- coats. In spite of these skirts the Greeks have as martial an air as possible. An old Greek who Is vain, and they are all vain, Is even 8 ferce-l looking figure. All the men have small waists and are proud of them.

A plastron of ecru lace Is drawn in at the neck in folds and carried on to the waist. The skirt of the waist is trimmed with msrabout edging, which is made of fiuffed silk threads and looks very much like plush.

The Oldest Daily Paper Pub-

A DIsCRKDITED SYSTEM.

A DISCRRDITED SYSTEM.
 The report of the senate committee ap- pointed to find out how the system of county commissioners has worked has made it's report, and that report will not surprise those who have kept their eyes open. The committee says that county commissioners have exercised power that did not belong to them; that some of them have bsen in huenced in their official &C., tion both by valuable considerations and by political and personal motives; that their official position and influence have been improperly used to gain both politi- cal and personal advantage; and that they have exercised their office in certain localities 50 as to thwart the expressed will of the people. Concerning some of the prosecuting agents the committee says: They have bought and sold licenses for 6 profit; they have appeared before the com missioners as attorney for applicants for license; and they have brought proceed ings for the revocation of licenses and settled the same upon payment by the ~ASSA1SSS for themselves, without a hearing before the commissioners and without authority of law.
 The committee does not name names, and therefore it's report will perhaps not amount to much. Those commissioners and prosecuting agents who have tried to do their duty will not be pleased with a report which leaves them, as we'll as the others, under suspicion, but perhaps the committee did the wissst thing in not making its charges more specific. It's recommendations that the granting of liquor licenses be placed in the power of judicial tribunal, and that the office of prosecuting agent be abolished seem sensi- ble. It is certain that the present system of regulating the liquor traffic has grave defects. It take thoroughly honest man to be an honest county commissioner or an honest prosecuting agent.
