two republicans and one populist.

A PROPOSITION is talked of to trans
fer 500 of the Charity Fund" to the
city in order that men who are anxious
and willing to work, but who cannot
subject their manhood to the humility
of accepting aims, may be given en-
ployment on city work. Looking at it
in one way, the plan might not be bad
one; but we hardly think proper that
fund raised as was the fund now in
the hands of the committee should be
diverted into any other channel. The
city council ought to devise some means
of providing work for the men above
referred to. True. the funds at the dis
posal of the city are about exhausted.
They need not have been but for the
misguided meddling of few citizens
of the city, twhose names-very few of
them at least-do not appear among
the list of contributors to the Charity
fund.-. Had the city continued to col
lect fine from the joints, as was the
expressed will of large majority of
the voters, there would now be plenty
of money in the city treasury for public
improvements, and there would have
been no more liquor sold than there has
been under free joints. Take this OBJ
ject lesson home and reflect upon the
condition and not the theory" that
confronts us. A little plain, common
sense. practical consideration of the
situation ought to convince the most
skeptlcal what the duty of the hour is.

when men thus intent on the star
