sanitary Wall Pauers.

The sanitary wah papers, which are
heavily glazed and vanished SO that
they are equal to three coats OF paint
after they are put up and properly fin
ished, are boon To housel<ecpcrs who
require a durable wall covering which
will bear washing. In the bathroom
and buffers pantry this sanitary paper
is especially in requisition. It comes in
geometrical designs, in blue and white
thing patterns, in old-fashioned French
tile designs after Vatican, and in rustic
patterns which initiate Delft thing.
After the paper is put on the wall it is
finished with coat Of sanitary varnish,
which makes it thoroughly durable.
The great advantage of this paper lies
in the fact that it is non-absorbcnt.
1t does not take up odorxor impurities
of the atmosphere and the highly glazed
surface may be washed with water as
readily az thing and without injury to
the paper.-N. y. Tribune.

GOOD ADVICE.

This is no time for Republicans to
criticise each other. 1t will do no good,
and only result in making a good many
people uncomfortable. This is the time
for Republicans to get together and pre-
pare for the next battle. We cannot
strengthen our lines by fighting among
ourselves. 1t is perfectly plain to the
dullest mind that no amount of manage
ment OF organization Hcould have saved
the Republican party from defeat this
year.

MUNICIPAL REFORM.

We devote considerable space to an ar
ticle on municipal reform bv Mr.. Rich
ard Webb. 1t was written to be read
before literary club and with no thought
of publication, but as the subject with
which it deals is one in which every citi-
zen of Portland is interested, and many
of it's suggestions appear to be practical
and useful, we have deem ed it worthy Of
a wider reading than it was intended to
have.
Undoubtedly great many of the evils
of our municipal administration which
Mr.. Webb points out are inevitable under
our democratic form of governm emit, and
cannot be eradicated without radical
change in the form of that government
change which, while it might cure
evils now existing. would bring others
quite as bad, and probably worse. I'm
doubtedly, however. many improve
ments are possible under our present
system. Responsibility can be more
definitely fixed, and better division of
powers be arranged. When depart
ment Of the municipal government is
badly managed it ought to be possible
to know exactly where the responsibility
lies. Under our present arrangement it
is sometimes very difficult to find out.
Under our present arrangement there
is lack of continuity, too, in the
the constructive work Of the municipal
ity. This evil is susceptible of complete
cure only when fitness becomes
recognized as the prime es-
sential in the selection of street
commissioners and civil engineers. So
long as these officials are voted in or
voted out on account of their politics we
can never get much continuity in the
management of our streets. A board of
public works unless it had very long
and secure tenure would be exposed to
the same influences as our present street
committees and succumb o them quite
as frequently.
CAT the root of the difficulty in making
our municipal administrations what they
ought to be and what everybody really
wishes them to be is the tendency to
inspect the politics of the candidates for
municipal office too much and their fit
ness too little.

A hastily written local item published in the
Argus the day after Sheriff Cram made his
memorable seizure of the liquors intended for a
punch for 1.-THE refreShment OF the Canadian
guests did give the impression that Mayor In
graham had given his approval to the commit
tee to get the ingredients for the proposed
punch at the agency. But this was not the fact.
1t was an error on the part of our reporter, and
was promptly corrected in a subsequent issue
OF the Argus.
1t was on July 2 that this chastity
written local ITEM appeared. The "sub'
sequent issue" in which ''the error on
the part of our local reporter was
promptly corrected" was July 5 or
three days after. And the correction
was in this language:
In regard to the charge in the editorial in
Yesterdays PRESS that Mayor Ingraham gave
his approval r the purchase at the ci agency
of the liquors used in making the punch for the
entertainment of our visitors from Montreal in
the sense that the Mayor gave the committee
any authority from him, either written or YER
bal, we are authorized by the Mayor to deny
the charge unqualifedly No man knows bet
ter than the present mayor OF Portland that he
has no authority to. give orders to any indiyid-
ual or company of individuals, for liquor at the
city agency, He has never done this, or
thought of doing it.
Observe the careful language of this
correction. 1t is not denied that the
liquor was obtained with the approval
of the Mayor, all that is denied is that
they were obtained with his approval
Sin the sense that the Mayor gave
the committee any authority from him,
either written or verbal 1t is merely
denied here that the Mayor gave his
approval in its technical sense, but it
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1892-11-29

is not denied that he gave his approval
in the usual sense of that term. The
Mayor was implicated this affair by
the Argus and by nobody else. All allie
cations by other parties were simply
repetitions of the Argus's statement.
Now if the Argus will make square de-
nial OF it's statement, and declare that it
was not true that the Mayor gave his
approval either in the general or tech
nical sense of that word, we will agree to
accept that denial as final. Whatever
mischi eff may have come to the Mayor in
this matter has come by reason of the
statement of the organ of his party, 1t
is that organs business to undo it. 1t
has not done SO yet and furthermore
it has manifested a strange reluctance to
do so.

The struggle of our esteemed 'sinde-
pendent contemporaries to make their
readers believe that when the Tam
many crowd asked Mr.. Cleveland for
pledges before election that he meta
phorically kicked them down stairs is
very amusing. For prudential reasons
none of them made any such attempt be-
fore election. Then they were all of
them, not only willing, but eager to let it
be understood that the best of feeling
existed between Mr.. Cleveland and the
Tammany bosses, and lest that feeling
should be disturbed they resisted every
attem p on the part of the opponents OF
Tammany to nominate municipal
ticket in opposition to that organization.
They were perfectly willing that the
Tammany crowd should loot New York
city provided it Loyalty supported Mr..
Cleveland. Neither Mr.. Cleveland nor
sne of the independent organs who were
supporting him dared say word against
Tammany during the campaign lest
Tammany's votes should be lost to him
Now that election is over they are be-
ginning to recover their courage.

bowed that it operated neither to the
advantage or disadvantage of either
party. Therefore the suspicion of politi-

as a voting system. There we are per-
fectly willing to let it rest.

The Boston Herald kindly advises the
Republicans to abandon their position on
the tariff and as an earnest of such aban-
donment to pass through the Senate at
the coming session of Congress the tariff
revision bills passed by the House at
as the country has repudiated the McKin-
ley bill by its recent verdict the Re-
publican Senate should proceed to repeal
or modify that bill. In the first place it
is by no means certain that that is the
meaning of the country's verdict. Pre-
cisely what the results of popular cleo
lions mean is always difficult problem
to solve. But even assuming that disap-
proval of the Mckinley bill is the correct
Interpretation of the country's verdict it
is by no means an injunction to the pres
ent Senate to repeal the bill. When the
country decreed that the Mckinley
bill should be repealed, it decreed also
by whom it should be repealed. 1t said
in effect to the Democratic party
that being convinced for the
time being that the Mckinley
bill is wrong, we commission the
Democratic party to repealit and con-
struct tariff bill to take its place.
What the country did was to place the
responsibility of the repeal of
the Mckinley bill and the Gre
alton of new tariff upon the
Democratic party. 1t placed it there
that it might know whom to reward if
the change turned out for the better and
whom to punish if the change turned out
for the worse. Instead of trying to shirk
some portion of this responsibility upon
the Republicans, the Democratic party
if it has the courage of it's alleged pres
election convictions should be only too
glad to assume the whole of it. At any
rate whatever its desire may be it ought
to be compelled to assume the whole of
it, for that was the intention of the
people.

THE PRESS.
TUESDAY, NOVEBMER 80.

The New York Herald's canvass Of the
Democratic members of the next House
of Representatives shows that majority
of them are opposed to an extra session
of Congress. This seems a little strange.
ALI through the campaign the universal
Democratic cry was that the country was
being robbed by the operation of the
Mckinley bill. Yet here is a majority of
the Democratic representatives elected
on that cry deliberately expressing the
opinion that it would be better to allow
this robbery to continue some six or
eight months beyond the time when it
would be possible to puta stop to it.
Are these gentlemen in favor of robbery,
or was their prediction talk about the
Mckinley bill pure buncombe?

The assertion in last weeks Senti,e-
el that our article written upon the
subject of the Poor Directors was a
malicious misstatement of facts, we
denounce as untrue. We were in
formed that one of the Candidates
went to the Sentinel Office and asked
to have their names put up as the reg
ular nominees, and also offered pay
and were refused. On the same day,
we were called upon and asked to
publish the names, and did so without
hesitation. As the names did not ap-
pear at the mast head Of the Sentinel,
nor at any time a line urging the ell
ection Of the nominees, we concluded
the report was true, and made the
statement to show the i'll treatment of
nominees, and for no other purpose.
Upon inquiry we learn that our infor-
mant misunderstood the candidate
We therefore retract that portion of
our article. But so far as the circula-
ton of the tickets without the names
of poor directors, is concerned, we saw
the janitor at the Court House circu.
late them in the commissioners office,
and what our eyes behold we know to
be true. The COLUMBIAN does not
need to make itself solid with the
directors for any purpose, their names
were placed at the head of the paper
for 3 consecutive weeks, and sufficient
tickets were printed to assure their
election. The two democratic men,
bers elected, have been on the board
a term or part of term, and are men
of good judgment, capable Of making
their appointments without any inter
ference from the obscure end of the
Sentinel, the ex-secretary of the Agr.
cultural Society and ex. (mis) )-represen-
tative of the people of Columbia
County.

EXCHANGE HOTEL CHANGES HANDS.

On Thursday morning the Exchange
Hotel changed hands, James McClosky
and John Tracy having bought out w.
r. Tubbs. The new proprietors are
young men of energy and enterprise,
and will do everything in their power
to merit the patronage Of the travelling
public. Mr.. McClosky has been as.
sistant manager of the business for
some years, and thoroughly understands
how to run hotel. Mr.. Tracy is a
man of pleasing address, and the new
firm will undoubtedly prove popular
one.
Mr.. Tubbs has been the proprietor
of the house for a dozen years or more.
No more popular landlord ever catered
to the wants of the public. He is a
man of progressive instincts, and has
been and is president of more organi-
cations calculated to benefit the town
than any other man in Bloomsbury.
He will retire from the business with
the best wishes of everybody.
Some Improvements, repairs and
changes will be made in the hotel.

RUN OVER BY THE CARS.
A YOUNG MANS LEG CUT OFF.


Last Friday afternoon at about ago
O'Clock, Charles A. Thomas had his
leg cut off at the weigh scales below
the -. l.. & W, depot, by being run
over by the cars. He is the telegraph
operator of the ID. l.. & w. Co., and
had charge of the weighing of cars on
the Bloomsburg & Sullivan road. A
freight train of the latter was backing
in the switch to be weighed, and just
before reaching the scales Charlie at
tempted to cross the track close to the
moving cars, to get a key to unlock the
scales from Joseph Casey, one of the
b. & S. men. In stepping over the
second rail his left foot was caught
under it, and before he could release
himself the cars were on him. He
threw his body off the track and thus
saved his life, but his left leg was so
mangled that it had to be amputated
about FIVE inches above the knee. The
leg was taken off by DIR. Gardner, as
sisted by DIR. Honora Robbins. The
sufferer exhibited great pluck through
out. He is a son of Zachariah Tho.
mas, and has been living with William
Thomas on Sixth street for some years.
He is an industrious young man, and
he has the sympathy of every body in
his misfortune.
