CONFESSION DENCE,

EDITOR SENTINEL: In your last is
sue the statement is made hat
Casimir-P erier, the present President
OF France, receives a yearly salary OF
$3.50. 900.
Permit me to say that this is incor-
rect. Nj. Perier's annual salary is but
$24, 900, and out Of this sum he foots
the bills for state banquets and every
thing pertaining to himself, except his
household expenses; he runs the
chances OF being stabbed to death or
otherwise MORALLY wounded at any
time during his term of office. At the
expiration OF his term (seyen years.
he finds he is out the salary for that
period, and considers himself lucky if
he is not compelled to draw on his
private account to pull him through
his term.
Under those circumstances, il is no
wonder Casimir- Perier wept, if he
did, on taking the Office of President
OF France, when he reflected on the
anarchistic times that exist at present
in that country, when the assassin's
knife, pistol or dynamite bomb may
send him in an instant TO that " bourne
whence M traveller returns" J..
The figures given by our correspond
emit are undoubtedly correct, as the
gentleman is not only a native Of
France, but is also q close observer OF
French politics and economics.

A. Jackson, Foreman OF the Grand
Jury: We, your committee, appointed to
inquire into the condition Of the various
public buildings Of the county, beg leave
to submit the following report: We find
the s~choolhouse in No. / condition In all
respects.
We End the various hosehouses In good
condition, with the exception 81 the
Hooks and Knicks Companies building,
which Is unsafe to occupy, and we would
advise that the necessary repairs be made
or that another building be furnished the
company.
We would also recommend that better
care be taken OF the Rescue and Mob Hill
hosehouses. as both are in anything but
clesnly condition.
We find the Hospital very clean and in
good order. and the patients we'll satisfied.
We would recommend that the wall Of the
south wing be repaired Immediately.
This matter was recommended by the
Grand Jury Of December 1892.
We find the Courthouse neatly kept,
and the Jail in fair order, with the excep-
tion Of the iron shutters, the iron door
leading from the Courtroom to the Grand
Jury room and the ceiling In the Court
room, all Of which need immediate atten-
tion; the southwest corner of the Court
house, where the water running from the
roof is injuring the foundation, should
be Immediately fixed.

FIRE HOSE, ETC.

A. Jackson, Foreman OF the Grand
Jury: We. the committee, appointed 10
examine the respective fire oompsnies'
buildings, hose, etc., In the town OF Eu-
reks, beg to report as follows: That the
brick building occupied by the Hook and
Ladder Company No. is In a very dan
gerous condition, and may tumble down
at any time, and that II would require too
much money to repair the same; there
fore, we would recommend that said
building be abandoned, provided some
other suitable place could be found in
which to move the fire apparatus belong
ing 10 said company. We also find about
500 feet Of good, servioeable hose belong
ing TO the above said company.
The Mob Hill Hose Company's building
is in good condition. and we find about
$50 feet Of hose, which can be depended
on, besides 800 feet which is not In good
condition.
The Rescue Hose Company's building
we find In good condition. with the exsep-
ton Of q few broken windows, and the
front gate, which should be repaired.
The said company has about $50 feet Of
good hose. and over 800 feet which cannot
be depended on.
We have also examined the Richmond
Hose Company, and find the building and
about 400 feet Of hose kept In good shape.
although this company does not receive
any benefit from the Fire Fund, and has
not received anything since February,
1888. which we consider unfair on the
part Of our County Commissioners; and
therefore, We recommend to the Board OF
County Commissioners that instead OF
hiring q ~jsnitor for each hose company al
$40. s25 and $50 per month each, that one
jsnisor be hired to do the work Of all the FIRE
companies, such ~jsnitor TO be selected by
each fire company in rotation 10 serve one
month, at Q salary not to exceed $50 Der
month oash, and that such ~jsnitor be re-
CURED to serve a. night Waterman, and be
empowered BY the Sheriff or Constable 10
make arrests and act as q peace officer,
and that SOS Of such salary be paid from
The Fire Fund. and sl5 be paid from the
General Fund Of this county.
We also recommend that the fire plug
on the corner Of CLARK and Spring streets
be repaired, a. the same has been out Of
order for some time. The water tanks we
ind in good shape.

N rARIFf BILL.

Many persons have been led TO believe
that with the settlement Of the tariff
schedules better conditions would arise
and business prosperity would again
bless The land. We have never been
able TO accept this belief. as II seems TO
us 10 be both illogical aud against what
might be expected from SO mixed q piece
Of legislation. Perhaps those who speak
this way do not fully grasp the situation
that confronts us.
The adjustment Of import duties have
often taken place before. yet 90 such 3
condition Of affairs ever arose out oil
their adjustment. Why then should
this adjustment throw . great nation into
such q commotion and depression as we
nov witness An effect. we are told,
must be commensurate with the cause.
II the country existed before manu-
featuring was built. why cannot the far
mer and the mechanic get along even II
manufactures are unsettled As ii is,
every one seems to be affected whether
they have any connection with msnufsc-
lures or not. For this reason, il for no
other, il would seem that there must be
cause deeper than the tariff question
that affects the country. We are in
hopes, however, that Congress will soon
dispose Of this question. This will allow
the people to see whether tariff or the
money is at fault. -Finance and Trade.

Murderers have no country, and

vengence Of the French mob in tear
ing down the Italian flag and mall
treating Italians who came in their
way because the murderer OF President
Carnot happened to be an Italian was,
perhaps, natural enough under the
circumstances but it was fury mis-
directed. No nation can be held to
