If the state Legislature could pay
state bills as readily as it intro
duces them there would be no kick
over the multiplication of official
places for the men who turn poll
teal grindstones. This, however,
is not the case and the state is be-
ing saddled with useless expenses
while money is withheld that
would bring to the state vast re-
turns on its investment. This
great state is growing very weary
of this vest-pOcket Legislature and
signs for the day when horse sense
shall prevail and cover the acts of
the state Legislature as the waters
cover the mighty sea.

THE long expected has come at
last and the Republican and the
POpulist Houses in Kansas are in
personal conflict. The Republi-
cans arrested the Populist clerk
for contempt. The Populists raj
lied and rescued their officer, then
barricaded the doors of the capitol,
retired and waited results. The
Republicans resOrted to force, broke
in the doors, took possession and
now hold the fort from which the
Populist governor is endeavor-
ing to dislodge them by the
militia of the state. That the
POpulists are holding the state
house without any constitutional
authority is quite certain, as the
Republicans have a clear majority
of all the House members. The
governor and the state officers are
bulldozing the Republicans and
have called out the state troops.
There is blood on the moon and
the result is beyond any foretel-
ling. The bells that ring out this
POpulist defiance of law and the
constitution will ring in Repub-
lican legislature next time.

FRANCE and Russia do not desire
to see England too supreme on the
ocean, and for the better proven
ton of this are DESTROYS of entering
into alliance with the United
States. Uncle Sam is putting his
scOws into good condition to resist
attack and is building for the fu-
ture defence of his shores and his
commerce. All the same, England
and America are not going to fight
1t costs too much and is too hard
on flesh and blood, and they both
have knowledge of this fact.

THERE is a universal sympathy
expressed for the heavy sentence
that has been passed on the elder
Lesseps. In his extreme old age
and loss of mental power such a
sentence might well have been
spared him, particularly as it is
very doubtful if he knew the meth
DDS employed to float that Panama
enterprise, his attention being 9th
erWise directed. In any event his
old age, imbecility and past ser
vices should have been taken into
consideration. But France was mad
for vengeance.

NEW ORLEANS DAILY ITEM, level
headed as usual, calls on the gov
ernOr of the state to put a stop to
the reports of starvation in certain
parishes Of the state, by supplying
the wants of the suffering people
out of the surplus funds in the
state treasury. If this is not done,
then the Item suggests that the
tens Of thousands of dollars spent
on Mardi Gras foOlishness should
be spent in measures of practical
relief. This view of the Item sug-
gests the reflection that there is
enough money to buy food and raj
ment for all if it was properly eX-
pended, and this without any APP
plicatiOn of the extreme and un-
practical ideas of the socialists.

MEN And WOMEN

Many men and women who a sho time
ago thought themselves of strong physique,
splendid intellect and nerves of iron marvel
at their feeling of exhaustion and total lack
of interest in their business affairs. They
are overpowered by sense of lassitude,
languOr and dullness. Their Wanted
strength and self control seem to have left
them when most needed already they have
eXperienceda lack of old time vigOr, a GER
tain lack of confidence, and nervous appre-
hensiOn instead of the old courage; a con-
slant feeling of as>itude and waning am
bitten: their blood is Impoverished, their
eyes lusterless, they are haunted with mel
anchOly and frequently have the "bLues;'
they feel their vitality wasting day by day
and night by night; they are easily discOur.
aged, irritable, morOse and unhappy pleas
ureS tire and friends bore them.
DO you know what your trouble is, or
what you are coming to? Come at once and
consult DR.. j. N. Hathaway, the successful
specialist of this city, aud he will tell you
also how tn get cured. Do not delay.

ton an opportunity to select their

possible, the best interests of the
city being duly considered.

TAKING IN SAIL.

| IAh1NU LIN BALL.
The city council that was elected
on last Monday to manage the
municipal affairs of this city will
find it of the first necessity to
! shorten sail and carry less dead
| freight if they expect to make a
profitable voyage. TO bring the
expenses of the city within it's
| legitimate income without i'm
pairing the efficiency of the city
service is the real problem. There
is scarcely a doubt that this can
not only be done, but we'll done
and a snug balance left over
every month with which to
meet the old accounts that will no
doubt soon come pouring in. The
practical wisdom of this admins
tration will best determine where
the pruning knife can be applied
with the best results, but there is
scarcely a single direction in which
saving cannot be made, without
any detriment to the city service.
In the city clerks office what need
of three or four assistant clerks :?
Why pay garbage gatherer
from $40 to $50 royalty on every
cart employed in city scavenger
work? Can not the city hire these
carts as well and save this enor-
nous sincecure? Why should not
the policemen as they patrol their
beats take in the work of sanitary
inspection as well and keep their
blood in circulation? Would it not
really improve the character of
their police service by necessitat-
ing their visiting at intervals
all parts of their prescribed
rounds? Their ornamental pres.
ence would be less conspicuous at
the street corners and in the sa-
looms, but the people could suffer
this for the sake of the economy
and the better service. Suggestions
as to reduced expenses in the
medical and fire departments have
already been made. These mat
terS are all to come before
the new council for consider
alton, and SUGGESTIONS are now
will alone determine what meas
ureS of retrenchment shall be ac-
tually introduced, but that the
most rigid supervision of the SER
vice and the eXcision Of every I'M
necessary expense is absolute
ly required cannot be doubt
ed. The present council is
duly credited by the people
with the wisdom and the will to
accomplish this. 1t will be no
easy task thus to reorganize all the
departments of the city service,
but it is theimperative duty of the
new administration to accom- pliSh
it, howing to tn" line..of their prom
Uses, letting the, chips fall where
they may.

REBELS STILL AT WORK.

The Bombardmenr of Rio DE Jnneiro Re-
sumed Yesterday.
LONDON. Sept. 2S.-A private cable mes
IN ge, received here this afternoon, says
that the rebel feet resumed the lombard
ment of Rio de Janeiro this morning. An.
other message received at Paris. coming
from an American source, denies the truth
OF the report received here 20 the effect
that the war ships belonging to the squad
ron commanded by Admiral De Mellos
were siIenccd yesterday, after opening fire
upon Rio de JaDeiro. by the guns of the
land forts at the mouth of the harbor. The
forts at Rio. according to this dispatch.
were unable to shell the rebel ships. owing
to the position tho latter occupied. without
taxing tremendous risks of dropping shells
into Rio de Janeiro itself. The
forts never tried a shot at the rebel ships
for fear of hurting friends and damaging
property. and because the little ammuni-
tion they have in theif MAGAZINES ia held
In reserve IN view of O possible attack on
the forts. The inhabitants of Rio nre still
hoping for foreign Intervention in their
favor. and the commanders of the foreign
war ship s are said 10 have been frequently
appealed to on the al bject. with no definite
result. though the report has reached hero
that the foreign ships have INTERVIEWED in
favor of Rio de .leneiro. All reports. how
ever. reaching the outside world from Rio
have come either from g~oyernment sources
or from friends of the rebels. both sides
cOloring their reports TO suit themselves.
1t is believed. however. that the dispatches
received by the banking houses in London
have given the public an idea of the real
situation of affairs.
