THE failure of Robert l.. Walker,
banker and president of stamp works at
Youngstown. Ohio, inflicts heavy loss
upon Gov. VIM. Mckinley. The Gov
ernor is an old friend and school mate
of Walker and having the greatest con-
tidence in him signed notes for him to
the amount of $4,000 or 500. 600. This
il seems was invested in such way
that it could not be readily realized and
as a consequence failure came. Walker
has been guilty of no extravaganza and
no criminal blame whatever attaches to
him. Gov. Mckinley says that be will
pay every dollar that he has signed for
IL it takes the last dollar he has. He is
not wealthy man, his fortune being
estimated at $4,000 or $4,000. So
great is the sympathy for the governor
that several of his friends have offered
him thei. check books signed with the
request that he fill out the checks to
SUIT himself. This misfortune is hard
one on the Governor, but he will come
out of i. with added honor if it does cut

AsSEMBLYMAN TUCKER from Winnie
bago county has introduced bill ito
establish a state hospital for inebriates
and protect society from the evils of
drunkenness by the cure of drunkards, "
The state Board of Control is authorized
by this bill to secure 100 acres Of land
within one mile of some railway station,
and to erect suitable buildings thereon
large enough to accommodate 500 in
mates. The bill provides that persons
addicted or supposed to be addicted To
the excessive use of stimulants or mar
cotics, may, by application of himself
or of any reputable citizen becommitted
to the hospital as insane in the same
manner rs patients are now committed
to the state asylums. The cost OF
maintaining persons at this institution
shall be borne by the state and no
charge whatever shall be made upon
the patient himself. The bill further
provides for the repeal of all other laws
for the punishment of drunkenness. and
by the cure OF the drunkard it is hoped
that society will be relieved from the
evils caused by drunkenness. II MIR.
fuckers bill becomes law. what is to
hinder Lancaster from being one of the
leading bidders for the location of its
buildings? There is already most
excellent building here that can be used
in connection with such \ hospital, and
additional land can be readily secured.

acy Of any particular method OF cure

THERE is bill before the legislature
to change the time of electing County
Superintendent from the general to

four years. There are other bills rela-
ting TO the county superintendency,

opinion that no change Of any moment
will be made this session. A bin max
ing the Office one of appointment instead
of election, the appointing board to
consist of the state board of examiners,
the institute conductors and the profess
sor of pedagogy in the state university,
is also in the legislature. BY this bill
the state will be divided into superin-
tendeEt districts of suitable size and the
superintendent paid from the state
treasury. salary much better than the
average at present and he is also to
hold his Office as long as he faithfully
discharges the duties thersof This
bill met with hearty reception at the
hands of the state teachers association
and is all right but is probably too
utopian to meet with success in any
state legislature. 1t has multitudes OF
excellent points nevertheless.

THE Chicago & Northwestern Rail-
road company have decided to elevate
all their tracks inside the Chicago linn
its. The cost will be S25, 900, 900. but
the company claims that the interest on
this sum is annually used up in paying
for accidents at the crossings as they
now are. So many serious accidents
occur on the present grade crossings
that it is only matter of short time
when all great cities will require the
railroads within their limits to be ele-
waited 50 that crossing horrors will be a
thing Of the past. The immense crowds
that will be in attendance Upon the
Worlds Fair this summer will furnish
food for manya horrible catastrophe,
and death on the railroad crossing will
in all likelihood take the lead. The
railroads can not geI their elevated
crossings too soon to serve humanity.
