SEEKING A MACHINE.

: The Telegraph, in its discussion Of the
attack upon the board of public works
seems TO go on the theory that Mr.. He'll
bron alone is the object of the assault. II
the charges had been directed against only
one member, or against all, there might
be some possibility of denying with q
show of plausibility that the raid had
been undertaken for political motives. As
matter Of fact. however, both the Repub-
lican members of the board are assailed.
while the Democratic member, who is
equally responsible with them, does not
receive the slightest attention from the
attacking party.
The forced nature Of the charges-the
aninus Of the whole thing-is shown in
one Of the charges against Major Rine-
hart. He is accused of having bought city
scrip. As = matter Of fact he bought a
small amount on one occasion, and did it
purely as a matter of accommodation.
But, suppose he had bought it regularly in
the open market, one may fairly ask,
What Of III" There is no law, no pro-
vision of the charter, no rule of official
conduct which forbids an official of the
city from buying scrip. There is nothing
dishonorable. undigni6ed or reprehensi.
bic about il.
II IS not charged that Major Rinehart
took any advantage of his position in pur-
chasing scrip. 1t is not charged that he
endeavorsd in any way, directly or indi.
rectly, to iniure the credit OF the city. On
the contrary, the purchase of scrip at a
good figure has a very decided tendency to
preserve and maintain that credit.
The mere making o. such q charge indi.
Gates how Mayor Ronald CROPPED about 70
ind some excuse to assal Major Rinehsr,,
He accuses HIM Of doing something which
any high-minded sud honorable man
could do without 5 moments hesitation
and which Mayor Ronald himself could do
with perfect proPriety.
Mayor Ronald Is lawyer and he well
knows how absurd is the charge which n.
brings against Major Rinehart tispo
wonder that he has made himself ths
laughing stock ef his legal brethren. IL
would have been far more honorable and
far more manly II he had frankly arowed
his intention of removing Major R.nehArt
because he is Republican.
The truth is that the Democratic bose,
have forced Mayor Ronald into this posi-
ton. They have got 1t into their heads
that the board Of public works can be
made a powerful political machine, and
they want is for use in the presidential
Campaign.

THE EXCLUSION ACT.

The difference of opinion as to when
the Chinese exclusion act, passed May 6,
1852. to hold good for ten years, expires.
arises through the wording of an act
amending the original law, passed July S,
1884. The first section of the supplement-
airy act provides that the frs. section of
the original act be amended to read as fol-
lows; From and after the passage of
this act, and until the expiration of ten
years next after the passage of this act,
the coming of Chinese laborers to this
country be and hereby is suspended"
The Philadelphia Press says:
The question is. does the expression "ten
years after the passage of this act," in the
amended law run from the passage of the
amendment. or does IL refer back and read into
the original sctf ii it refers back to the law
passed two years earlier. then the failure OF the
House and senate 70 agree to q new exclusion
b.l Will open our ports freely to unrestricted
Chinese immigration on and after May next,

Chinese suspension act has the force of q new
law, superseding the old and dating from the
time OF its passage, Chinese restrictive legisla-
ton can rest for another two years without in

The Red Cross Society has Just held its fifth
International conference in Rome. subject of
discussion was the horrors of the next war II
showed that the new small ealibsr rifles, now
generally adopted, would send a ball mile:
that the bullet would penetrate walls and trees
which had hitherto protected soldiers, and that
1t would pass through number of men in sue
esssive lines of battle. The aim IS trusr with
these rifles and the shots can DO fred in rapid
succession. The percentage OF the wounded

means OF getting them from the field.

The New York Tribune says Of Andueza, the
Venezuelan dictator: HE is q man OF Balma-
cedas stamp, but without his intellectual force
and tainted with official corruption. He has
underworld to retain the executive Office in de-
nance OF constitutional law, and has merited q
speedy downfall. European opinion has not
been directed against him, as it was against
Bslmseeds, but this is because the foreign mer-
chants in Venezuela have systematically pur-
chased his support and favor, and have not
raised an cutlery against him The revolution
airy cause is the cause of good government there.
AndueEs is one OF the least competent aud most
corrupt rulers in Spanish America"

every whistle in the vicinity began Shrek
ing. and the pandemonium continued for
some minutes. The Columbia's anchor was
cast when the middle of the river was
reached.
Among the christening party who
mounted the fag-covered stand at the bow
of the vessel were Secretary of the
Navy Tracy, Vice-President Morton
and Mrs. and Miss Helen Morton.
The ladies carried large bou-
quets of roses, and H. Cramp, of the ship
building firm. stood at the side OF the fair
christener as prompter. There were also
several hundred persons from Washington,
New York and elsewhere on the platform.
While no invitations were issued by the
firm of William Cramp & Sons, the yard
was early thrown open to the puolic and all
were made welcome. From Washington
came small but distinguished party OF
Farquhar Chief of the Bureau of Yards
and Docks; Commodore George De-
vey, of the Bureau of Equipment;
Commodore Francis S. Ramsay, Bureau OF
Navigation; Commodore William NJ Fol-
ger, Bureau of Ordnance; Chief Construc-
tor Theodore D. Wilson, of the Bureau OF
Construction and Repairs; Paymaster-Gen-
era, Edwin Stewart and Captain John A.
Howell, President of the Steel Board.
Fifty thousand people watched the launch
ing from the yard and neighboring docks,
and. in fact. from every vantage point.
The Columbia is named in honor of the
capital of South Carolina. She is OF class
that takes the name of a city. In view OF
the near approach of the Columbus Centen-
nial, Secretary Tracy thought that the name
might have a double significance.

Fsred Just right
Liver, Stomach, and Bowels, by
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They
do it in just the right way, too
by using Natures own methods.
That's why they're better than the
dreadful, old fashioned pills, with
their gripping and violence.
But they're better in every way.
In size, for instance, and dose.
They're the smallest and the cas-
lest to take; only one little Pellet
is needed for gentle laxative
three for a cathartic. They cleanse
and regulate the system thoroughly
but it's done easily and naturally.
Sick Headache, Bilious Headache,
Constipation, Indigestion, Bilious
Attacks, and all arrangements of
the Liver, Stomach and Bowels are
prevented, relieved, and cured.
They're the cheapest pill you can
buy, for they're guaranteed to give
satisfaction, or your money is re-
turned. You pay only for value
received.
Something else, that pays the
dealer better, may be offered as
"just as good" Perhaps it is, for
him, but it can't be, for you.
