THE Washington women are right in
demanding a higher standard OF moral
ity 10 Judge men by, but they need
never expect to accomplish anything in
that line by petitions to Congress.
Morality can never be secured by legis-
lation. Public sentiment is more pow
eriul than law, and If the women want
the morals OF our representatives in
Congress elevated, they would find q
profitable field for work among the
electors who choose the congressman.

remove the same at once. About IS or
40 were notified to clean up their premises

was called to the bad sanitary conditions
existing in the rear of block south of
the track, and one nOrth-both on Fifth
avenue. The greater part OF the city was

completed Friday q horse and buggy being
used. In several quarters the committee
were met by considerable amount of
verbal opposition and, in one case, were
threatened with being licked" but a
soft answer turned away the anger Of
the householder and the parting was in

For the Encampment.

Every effort Is being made by the gov
ernor and the officers of the militia to
make the annual encampment OF the
National Guard pronounced success.
A railroad rate of l cent per mile has
been secured for the guards, and the
Northern Pacific has generously offered
the use Of car and free transportation
for the guns of the battery. Two troops
OF cavalry will be mounted.
New side arms, targets, hospital out
fits. repairs for guns and ammunition,
ETC., are being received at the capitol.
and altogether the ''citizen soldiers" will
be in better shape for efficient service
and practice than ever before. One of
the new model 30.caliber guns-which
will soon be issued to the militia
1000 rounds OF ammunition, will be on
hand for inspection and practice. Prizes
will be offered for proficiency in differ
ent lines. From recent reports OF the
adjutant. general, it is found that at least
45O officers and enlisted men could be
depended on to be in the field on short
notice, and as every one OF these, from
commander in-chief TO drummer boys,
are working to make memorable en-
campment OF this one, there seems to be
GOOD reason to expect that not only from
serviceable standpoint but one OF pleas
ure, it will be a success.
The dates for the encampment is from
June 18th to July 7th, and preparations
are being made to cooperate with the G.
A. r., which will hold their encampment
at the lake at the same time to make the
Fourth of July celebration one OF the
greatest ever held in the state.

ss ''rhe May" was started, and by push
and advertising, big business was de.
veloped and is still retained. Denver
was not large enough to satisfy the mer-
camille ambition OF these enterprising
men, and 90 still larger field was sought
10 st. Louis. There, two years ago, by q
lucky chance, an option was obtained on
the big Famous" retail Quitting house,
and after an inventory and shrewd guess
at the value of twenty years essab-
lished business, Lou and Joe Shoenberg,
associated with another brother, bought
the whole concern, and now are running
one OF the largest establishments OF the
kind in the west. 1t is conducted on the
same general plan as all the large depart
ment stores OF the country. Everything
is completely systematized and the bust
ness runs like clock work. The eldest
brother. Joe, is the heavy buyer; there
are special agents in Europe on the look
out for bargains, while L. u. Shoenbergs
fertile brain devises the advertisements
and the other schemes that the other
partners shrewdly execute. All work
together and their prospects are for
100000 business In 1894. The thing
has outgrown ali expectations in magnl-
tude and success, and the new firm has
largely increased the business of what
Was already one OF the best known
houses in the Mississippi valley.
In jamestown the firms advertising
bills were from $50 to $75 month with
The Alert, and they thought them large.
In st. Louis they paid out last year
$4,000 for newspaper advertising alone.
Their special bargain days are crushers.
Five stories, all crowded with goods, pre-
sided over by 300 employees, lighted by
the firms own electric plant, bewilder
the visitor. The fixtures and fittings of
the stores are all new and modern; plate
glass is everywhere. Allglass cases show
the finer goods. A band concert is fea-
ture OF special sale days. The immense
establishment is on Sixth and Locust,
in the heart OF the retail trade in St.
Louis. The Shoenberg Brothers are to
