COUNTY AND CITY FINANCES.

THE JOURNAL has earnestly plead
for reform ia city and county finances
Mayor Catch when he went into Office
suggested that an intelligent statement
of city finances be printed In the city
papers every three months, to answer
the public demands 20 know where
we are at.n that at the time of the last
city election had risen to clamor. No
heed has been paid to his recommends
ton, and by the end Of his term this
public will be as much in the dark as
ever. The city warrants are paid at
bank. The city recorder turns all
moneys over TO the bank. Whether 1t
is applied to old warrants, or new, is
not known. Whether the city is run
ming ahead or behind no one can tell.
If the citizen could compare quarterly
statement every three months he could
satisfy himself. This reform in city af-
fairs could be easily brought about,
and would prove very satisfactory.
The same is true of countyaffairs.
New conditions are arising. The time
when the county officials could know
personally all the leading men of the
county or all the people of any neigh
borhood even Is past. The only con-
tact that the vast majority have with
the county govern ment is through
their newspapers. The newspaper is
the only means that the farmer, who
is kept from town by bad roads from
three to six months of the year,
has Of knowing what is done at the
county seat. And they have right to
know what is done with the public
money. They do nothing but pay.
The few get profits out of the county.
The many have at least right to know
what shape they get them 10.
Judge Hubbard takes exception to
THE JOURNALS criticism that the af.
fairs of the county court are sealed
book. He says the county court has
ordered all their official business made
but that the clerk has not attended to
it. Well, he is the courts clerk, not
ours. All we know is that the law re
quiring publication OF the orders OF
the court and the disposition of claim.
presented there is not complied with.
The public are left in the dark. The
semi-annual county financial statement
Is not published. THE JOURNAL can.
not be charged with mercenary motives
in this, because compensation fixed by
the court is not intended to cover cos,
OF setting the type even, and the semi
annual statement of the clerk, sheriff
and treasurer are published by tn.
Democratic clerk who would probably
give the publication to some Democrati,
paper or some Republican papeI
that helped elect him. What W,
complain of is that these city ant
county finances are not made pub
lie ut all. They are kept in the dark
They are not open TO inspection, criti
clsm or discussion, by newspapers or
the public. The JOURNAL is satisfied
with its own course in this matter.
Its constituency in this city and coun-
ty are satisfied with its course. 1t is
in the interest of intelligent citizen
ship and good government. The law
should be complied with.

A Gentleman who could Neither Sit stiII,
Walk, kat Nor sleep With Aay Comfort
Cured By Drs smith and Scott of Union
Place, BrOadway. Troy, n. Y.
Mr. Henry Haskins of Hartwellville,
Vt, has been great sufferer for num-
Der of years from pile tumors or hemOT-
rho DIS. 1t is difficnlt to describe his suf-
ferings from this most wretched COM
plant and the complications that ac-
companied it. There were obstinate
constipation and pain in the small of the
back which extended to the back of the
head; he had heats and pressure on the
top of the head. and continued headache.
He was afflicted with dyspepsia, which
caused feeling of pain and distress in
the region of the heart. Many times his
stomach was 50 deranged that the most
innocent kinds of food disagreed. When
Mr.. Haskins visited Drs. Smith and Scott
he complained OF a faint all-gOne feeling
at the pit of the stomach, belchlng OF gas,
with feeling about his heart as though
it had been grasped by an iron hand.
He was weak and said he was as tired in
the morning as when he laid down at
night. He suffered from profound mel
ancholy; often feeling came over him
as if something dreadful was about to
happen. At other times the distress in
his head was so great that he feared he
should lose his mind. He had consulted
a number of eminent physicians, none
of whom had given even temporary re-
lief, and when he came to Drs. Smith and
Scott his aith in physicians was about
gone. He had been reading in the
papers of some of the remarkable cures
they were performing and decided to
make one more trial. The first week in
January he took his first magnetic treat
ment. The results were much better
than he expected, although he was made
worse rather than better by the first
treatment. After the second treatment
he began to improve and the improve
ment was permanent. Saturday, Febru-
airy 4th, he called on the doctors and re-
ported himself cured. All the soreness,
aches and pains were gone; he was per
fectly well of that complaint His diges-
ton is good and his sleep and appetite
are all they should be. Drs. Smith and
Scott treat with conspicuous success all
forms Of chronic disease and May be con-

ATTACKED CAPRIvL.
Herbert Bismarck stirs Up the
Chancellor.


BERLIN. July IA vote was taken
today on the amendment to the army
bill offered yesterday by Prince Henry
Zu Carolath-Schoenaich, providing that
the two years service system be fixed
legally. The amendment was defeated
by large majority. the vote standing
274 against the motion to los in
favor of it. During the debate on
article l of section 2 of the
bill, which was started by Herr Groeber.
member of the Center party, Count
Herbert Bismarck made a speech that
aroused general interest. This section
relates to the formation of tue infantry,
cavalry and artillery. When Count
Herbert arose movement deuoting in
terest was visible throughout the house.
He declared that he was satisfied with
the adaptation of the bill, though he
was opposed TO the two years service
system because the Socialists, through
the short term of service, might
corrupt the army. His fears were
mostly in respect of the Young men
from the tolls. most of whom were So
cialists. There would not be time in two
years to 'eXpel the Socialist poison from
these recruits. At this point Count
Herbert was interrupted by cries of
''zur cache" Continuing, Count Her
bert said that the year of service would
serve as reformatory school. This re-
mark caused a great uproar, which for
time Herr Won Levetzow, the Dresi-
dent, was unable to queIl. When order
had been sufficiently restored to allow
of his voice being heard. Herr Kardoff.
member Reichspartei, appealed to the
house to sustain the chair against such
seandalous right of debate.
Silence was finally obtained. ana
Count Herbert proceeded with his
speech. He explained that he voted Tor
the bill because the government had not
fixed two years as the permanent term
OF service. He added that Chancellor
Won Caprivi's original biz was a better
