There must have been another fresh party
got up here by somebody: for wo have re-
ceived n printed circular headed. The New
York Platform" which opens thus: " Every
thing created by man has its weak point"
This is broad. sensible. and truthful state
ment. 1t has the merit OF being indisputable

wumps tho Prohibitionists. and the Alliance
men can stand upon it In solid body under
the American flag. II the platform had ended
with the great truth we have here quoted. it
would have been without weak point: but its
creator has no sooner created 1t than he pro-
ceeds to create six weak points, each one Of
them weaker than the others. and all OF them
proving tho truth Of the opening statement Of
the New York Platform. II the anonymous
creator OF this platform were funny man. the
weak headed people might smile at him: but.
alas he Is some kind OF an all-around reform
err of the nature Of things. and must be treated
with gravity.

A yarn is printed in Paterson about an
old bell that is on the top OF School No. there.
According to the yarn. this bell. which had
long been tho pride OF an ancient convent in
one OF the cantons Of Switzerland. was seized
as trophy by NAPOLEON. was given by him to
his brother JOSEPH was brought to New Jer-
sey by JOSEPH after his Punishment from
France. was left there by JOSEPH among lot
OF old traps. was afterward bought by a rail-
road company. which used it for eight years.
and was finally hoisted to the top OF School No.
!. where it does daily service in calling the
children to their lessons Now. then. as these
are times In which many people like to do
pretty things. would 1t not be quite pretty to
take this old bell down from No. and send 1t
back to the Swiss canton OF which 1t was once
the pride. and to the old convent from which 1t
was stolen by the Corslcan conqueror? We
can't say whether the romantic yarn about
this Paterson bell is true. but we know that
many yarns which have romantic look are
founded on fact. are true as history. And
what rejoicing there would be In the forest
canton OF Uri II the travel-worn bell were
again in the convent tower. and II Its peals.were
heard by tho descendants OF the faithful who
heard them long ago! Let us give some play
to the imagination in these fiat times. and let
tho children OF Paterson School No. have n
chance to vote upon the question Of sending
back the bell

Thieves in Puxallup.

PuyALLuP. Jan. 19.-[SpeciaL The safe
Of Johnson e. Snyder, owners of the Opera
cafe, was blown open last night and its
contents carried off, The thief gained an
entrance by the door in the alley, and
thence through the saloon to the Office,
which is in front facing Meridian street.
Some OF the neigh bors heard the noise of
the explosion which took place about 2
q. m, but as il was not at all loud or dis
nnet did not pay any attention to it. 1t
presumed that there were three men
concerned, as they traced the footprints
Of the one who blew the safe open and
found that two other persons joined him
some little distance from the saloon. The
burglars were evidently familiar with the
internal arrangement of the safe, as is
evidenced by the manner in which il was
drilled. The thieves secured about $500 in
cash. No trace Of them has as yet been
discovered. There has been constant
phierlng of chicken roosts going on here
ior the past month, sometimes as many as
sso or three being robbed in the same
evening, but the perpetrators have so far
hsitied the police.

The Democratic list is as follows:
DIVORCE REFORM.

To THE EDITOR: A clipping from recent
editorial of the PosT- INTELLIGENcER has just
reached me in which II is said:
Certain reformers at the East now propose an
amendment to the constitution OF the United
states giving congress power 10 make uniform
Law Of marriage and divorce. This is a mere
dream of the doctrnaires and philanthropic
Pickwicks OF our civilization.
Then comes in the extract in Public Opinion
from which quote some vigorous and, II may
be allowed TO judge, in the main thoroughly
sound opinions, ending in the assertion OF the
great truth that 'the education at home, in the
church, the school, that makes for the greatest
number OF high-minded men and women will
hear fruit in the largest number of true marriages
that are now represented by the suppliarts OF
the divorce courts"
think your readers ought TO know that the
persons referred to in the first sentence quoted
do not at present make a very large class, as one
might think from your statement IL is true
that Senator Kyle, Of south Dakota, and mem
her of the House from Pennsylvania, have each
been reported as having introduced joint reso-
buttons 10 provide for a constitutional amend
neut But do not learn that they represent
sny class of "reioTmers.' The National Divorce
Reform League, which undoubtedly has done
nv far the most work in this line the last dozen
wears, has never directly advocated this meas
ure nor has it directly opposed it, except that it
has all along insisted that 20 attempt amend
rnent of the constitution was 20 launch on sea
of difficulties so great as to make the attempt
unwise until other systems OF relief OF the legal
difficulties had been thoroughly tired.
II therefore secured from congress Ar.
WrjQht's invaluable report on marriage and
divorce in the United states, which strongly
confirms its position. and then took up and is
messing the appointment of state commits
sions on uniformity. which now exist in ak
states In this work il has enlisted the Amer
lean Bar Association and has the hearty eQ-orper-
alton Of the National Board of Trade OF
course individuals and Legislators are free to
take such course as they please, as indeed is
true of our own membership. But so lar az
know, from my correspondence and newspaper
~clippings." the press and leading philanthro-
pists through the country are now almost
unanimously with US. Public opinion wss
slowly gravitatiug towards US before, hnt since
Nr. wrlght's report two years ago, and some OF
cur own publications. the change has been very
great.
let me add further that the league has always
insisted on the limited though oy no means IN
important, part OF reform, which law IN any
sAgpe can perform, aud that the root OF the mat
ter lies jost ~ you indicate, IN the education Of
the home, school, church, the press and Other

ton and practical work in creating better family

third and fourth have had much more

the courses of lectures the family and its kin

Columbia. Cornell and great many other iu-
institutions where ten years ago nothing

reform controlled by Christian purpose can be

to shibboleths, aud win the favor of statesmen,

look into the quiet work of the National Divorce

choose to address me at Auburndale Mass.

claiming to be Mexican, was arrested
here this afternoon, on suspicion of selling
cigars without license and defrauding
saloon-keepers. Berroa produced govern

saloon keeperswho were defrauded entered
complaint he was allowed to go.
1t is said Berroa has worked Montana
and Idaho and several cities in this state.
His plan, as told by those who say they
have been heeced, is to represent that he
has lot of choice cigars, upon which ne
duty has been paid and that he will sell
them cheap. The cigars actually delivered
are of cheap make and not of the excel
lent quality of the samples. He denies
that his cigars are made by Cinnamon in
