What sutton Is Doing.

Legislation has been grinding night
and day this week. We notice that on
Wednesday Mr.. Sutton got his bill
through oppropriating $4,000 for the
current expenses of the forestry stations
at Dodge City and Wa-Keeney. He also
secured the passage of the following. An
act to vaeate Wichita Addition to kinsley,
Edwards county. An act to authorize
the commissioners of Edwards county to
build public road.
1t will therefore be observed that our
has been doing something
to earn his salary.

There is growing determination on
the part of the masses to have their own
way land it is best they should, for it will
give us better laws and purer administra-
ton. TO get rid of the machine and
self-constituted bosses is to be relieved
from corrupting influences and every
phase of bad politics. The aspirant to
public positions had better take recogni-
zance of the fact that people want good
government and mean to have it. The
people are aroused to the prevalence of
monopoly, and party that wishes both
to promote the common welfare and to
gain success will hereafter be compelled
to inquire how far the government should
60 to remove special privileges and to
exercise power to that end to the fullest
legitimate extent. 1t is an important les
sou OF the late election that party tram
mels are not as binding as formerly, as
the compulsion to the party whip. Ad-
vocacy of just and practicable measures,
clean methods in politics, honest and Wig.
orousladn.ihistration, are the only agen-
cies through which popular attachment
to party organization can be secured and
The best and smartest poll.
tics is to give the people the wisest and
most efficient government. ANY other
theory is beneath the respect of the true
patriot.-Richard H. Mcdonald. Jr. in

ness shall characterize the columns OF
his paper. The great need of this, oul
day, is knowledge of the truth. The
confession that Bro. Shinn has made in
respect TO his false statements. made
from time to time in political and other
matters, is but glimpse which he gives
US of the common method of running q
city political paper. As every we'll in
formed person must know. truth and We
racity are not the principles which usu-
ally guide the editors of our political pa
pers; but the untrue, in well nigh any
form, is counted justifable.i if it but gives
impetus to party and circulation of the
printed sheet.
What we most need is facts in respect
to persons, places and events, and to get
them, truthfSl witnesses alone can be re-
lied upon. Truthful editors are the wit
nesses we need: and, if we can be as
sured that such an one guides the matter
which appears in the papers of our
homes for the perusal of ourselves and
families. we feel that one such worthy
sheet Is worth dozen others whose edi-
tors write their editorials and fill their
papers with what they know to be false
in greater or less degree.
Bro. shina mas begun right III this. his
effort toward Righteousness. He has be-
gun with his heart, which is the source of
all lying and evil. A changed heart
makes changed man, and the change is
very apparent in his words as they ap-
pear in bis now more than ever very
worthy paper. 1t is greatly to be hoped
that other editors in yodge will see the
same need. and begin work in the same
way for their own good and the good of
others. If they do not, and continue vet
to present to us the false in the garb of
truth, it is greatly to be hoped that such
men will fail in business and quit, tina,
their places may be filled with those
who are desirable. 1t is to be hoped
that editors who are to be relied on as
men who give the truth from week to
week will receive the patronage of all
who love Righteousness. and if the GLOBE

The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1893-05-24
Character Of Charles I.

The worst mischance that could possibly
have befallen Charles I was the accident OF
his royal birth AS private individual he
might have been esteemed as an upright,
honorable gentleman, narrow minded per-
haps, but gifted with literary and artistic
tastes, an affectionate parent and devoted
husband. On the throne such good quail
titles as he actually possessed were neutral
lied and vitiated by his defective education,
the unprincipled character of those with
whom he chiefly associated and, above all,
by his absolute selfshness.
The low cunning that characterized his
father was in Charles developed into an al
most incredible disregard for truth aud
loyalty Not the slightest value could DO
attached to his plghted word. Hewas not
less faithless to his friends than he was vim
dictive to those who opposed him IN the ex-
ercise of his royal pleasure. He had more
exaggerated notion Of kingly prerogative
than even his predecessor. Nothing that
he did or attempted 10 do could in his eyes
possibly be wrong. He might change his
opinions and shift from one policy to an
other, but he would certainly not have 40
knowledeed any alteration in himself Cir
cumstances might have been modified. but
he himself remained ever the same, so at
least be would have asserted, and probably
such was also his behef.-Gentleman's
Magazine.

The Zig Fair at Night.

A sight moro beautiful than Jackson
park at night cannot be conceived, so
liberal is the uso of electric lamps and so
artistically are they arranged. For illu-
minating the grounds and entrances to
the buildings lamps to the number of
1850 are placed at intervals of from 05
to 70 feet, except at the extreme south
eastern part of the grounds, where dis
tances between some Of the posts are in
creased to 125 feet. Around the main
entrances TO the principal buildings clus-
tiers of lamps are placed. The arc lamps
employed for exterior illumination are
supported on ornamental posts designed
TO receive one, two or three lamps and,
where expedient, have arm-supporting
incandescent lamps of high candle power
inclosed within colored glass lanterns
that afford richly decorative effect. A
problem of different character was pre-
sented when the question OF aisle light
ing with arc lamps came up owing to
the varied nature of the exhibits, the
character of the Enclosures, the height of
showcases and proximity of supports.
In the final allotment Of lamps Gn
round numbers) 200 were assigned to
the Manufactures building, 500 to the
Agricultural building and annex, $50
to the Transportation building proper;
Horticultural building, $50; Mines and
Mining, 200; the Fisheries, 80, and the
Illinois building 81. These are all sup
piled with current by the exposition
company from the power plant, as are
also some $50 arc lamps required in Ma
chinery halL-Chicago Times.

New Yorl,,s First Streets.

Actually only two roads were established
when the town of New Amsterdam was
founded, and these so obviously were neces-
sary that practically they established them
selves. One Of them, on the line of the
present Stone and Pearl streets-the latter
then the water front-led from the fort TO
the Brooklyn ferry at about the present
Peck slip. The other, on the line of the
present Broadway, led northward from the
fort, past farms and gardens, into the viii.
derness.
Broad street and the Beavers Path pri-
marily were not streets at all. On the line
of the first of these, with a roadway on
each side, canal extended as far as Beaver
street, where it narrowed to ditch which
drained the swamp that extended north
ward to about the present Exchange place.
Because of the homelikeness-as one sat
contentedly smoking on ones stoop in the
cool of summer evenings-that there was in
having good strong smelling canal under
ones nose, and pleasant sight of round
squat sailormen aboard of boats which
were also of a squat rOundness, Broad
street (then called the Here Craft was
favorite dHelling place with the quality of
that ea.dy day. And even the Beavers
Path-which could boast only a minor,
ditchlike smell, that yet was fit to bring
tears of homesickness into ones eyes, such
tender associations did it arouse-was well
thought of by folk of the humber sort, to
whom the smell of a whole canal was too
great a luxury.-Thomas A. Janvier in
Harper's.
