WHY THEY WANT TO MOVE THE CAP
ITAL.
Baton Rouge Truth: A number It
members of the legislature are adyo-
eating the removal of the state capitol
from this city to New Orleans, for sun
dly reasons, chief among which are
those given by Senator Flypn. COM
prlslng lack of accommodations, ab-
sence from the capital from Friday
until Monday by demands of private
business, and "great discomforts and
Inconvenience" Now We most posi-
lively take issue with the honorable
Senator on all these points and give
as our reasons for doing SO the follow
ing: That the state has claim to the
entire time of members during the
sixty days session, and insists that
public business take precedence over
private affairs. The state, however,
does not make it obligatory upon the
citizen to serve in the legislature to
the neglect of his own business. hence
Senator Flynn might have remained
at home with the chances of legisla-
ton progressing as favorably as it
does now that he is senator, and so
far as the matters of accommodation
are concerned, we fear the honorable
gentleman Is hard to please if he cane
not be satisfied with those of this city,
which are graded all the way down
from first class hotel to catfish eat
ing shop. We do not enjoy the pleas
ure OF AN acquaintance with the gen
tleiaan in question. but from sizing up
and averaging the New Orleans mem
bers generally, we think we may safe
ly assert that the food and accommo-
dation to he had in Baton Rouge are
fully equal to that of their own homes.
1t is true we lack "attractiveness" in
beer jerking establishments, prize
fights, Schoenhausen dives and kin
dred disreputable resorts. but then it
is not to be supposed legislators yearn
for OF indulge in such enjoyments or
that they consider their sole aim in
life to be seeking amusement.

AS TO MOVING THE CAPITAL.
Boyce Enterprise While New Or
leans is the largest city in Louisiana
and is recognized as one of the leading
G ties of the south. and will probably
afford better accommodation and
more amusement for the legislator
than Baton Rouge, the people who
have the interest of the public in view
will never consent TO have the capital
located so far from the centre of the
state. If it is moved at all it should
be moved nearer the center of the
State, and not to New Orleans merely
for the benefit of that city and few
politicians aud office holders,

If IA plan could be devised which

to the public, hat would be the one
to be preferred. We urge the claim
that the right of suffrage should only
be conferred upon those who possess a

WI>E IND PRACTICAL.

The Hartford Courant makes a sug- gestion which, in its own words, "should commend itself to every Connecticut man, Democrat or Republican. who has an honest pride in the good old State, who has been grieved and shamed by the corruption that in recent years has eaten its way into her elections, who wants to see a halt called on vote-b buy ing" It is that the chairmen of the two town committees, the Republican and the Democratic, sit down on op- posite sides of a table, figure out to- gether the legitimate campaign ex- penses, and then shake hands as honest men and gentlemen on mutual prom ise and not pull out another dollar for any purpose whatsoever.
 Such action would be full of good. It would save a great deal of money that is now wasted and some that is stolen. It would do more for purity in elections" than all the laws that could be made. It would make it easier, not to say possible, for poor but honest men to be candidates for public office It would lessen the evils and the profits of rum, and it would lessen the evils and the profits of rascally and black mailing politicians. Connecticut has a bad reputation for vote selling and vote buying and the improper use of money in political campaigns. We don't believe the situation is as bad as a Hartford professor says it is, but it is bad enough. It could and should be immediately and radically bettered by the general adoption of the wise and practical suggestion of the Cour- ant.

garment in the world in severe weather, but there is no denying its daintiness, and many are worn. This one is of parchment colored silk and is com posed of two circular founces piped with silver gray velvet.

The net being cut away the points are pendant. The ef- feet is odd, and to one who respects any kind of lace 1t seems ugly. In many cases a sersl of strap-like pieces is pendant from the heading, each strap being finished at the end by disk or a fieur de lis. When applied to gowns the hanging pieces are as 2 rule sewed down to the material upon which the lace is set, but, in the case of belt or collar use, the pendants are often left free sA ELOREETE.

BRAIAs FOR CANADA.

Mir. Pigott has honesty and brains, says the Register in explanation of and apology for him. His use of his brains while in congress is much appreciated by the Register. though that paper re- grets that he didn't have q chance to vote for more tariff reform. and thus make an even better use of his brains than he did. His use of his brains is also appreciated in Canada. For in- stance, the editor of one of the lead ing newspapers of the province of Quebec congratulates his readers be- cause the United States tariff Is bound to benefit Canada in a marked degree.
 Already there is revival on the other side. and when times become good again with our neighbors there Is sure to be an Increased demand for Canadian lumber at better prices. The Canadian farmer likewise will have his condition improved by the considerable reduction that has taken place in the duties on live stock and farm produce" For the further encouragement of his readers. thls Canadian editor continues: Horses. sheep. hay and barley are some of the chief products which find their way to the American market and which were hard hit by the Mckinley duties. MT. Charlton, M. P. reliable authority, estimates that Canadians have been paying five millions a year into the United States treasury for the privilege of selling In the American market. The new tariff. except in the case of lum- Der, maintains duties on Canadian pro- duce but at a very much lower rate. The duty on hay has been reduced one half, on barley 15 cents per bushel, on eggs 3 cents per dozen, on sheep 75 cents per head, on poultry cents per pound and on horses s10 to s15 per head. The effect of this reduction will be felt in better prices for our produce and prove an earnest of what unrestricted trade between the two countries would do for our farmers. Taking the last trade returns as a basis, our farmers will receive each year $94000 more for their horses, s2SS,O0O more for their sheep, $40 900 more for their wool, $23s,- 900 more for their barley and $1SS,00O more for their hay than they have been getting The list might be extended, but these items are sufficient to afford some idea of the scope of the advan- tages which the new tariff confers on our farmers.
 No wonder Mir. Pigott's brains are appreciated in Canada. By his use of them he has helped Canadians save $9S4, ,O0O in duties heretofore paid by them on five articles of their produc ton, flor the privilege of selling them in an American market" and has help ed them enlarge their market. The Ga nadians could we'll afford to contribute something handsome toward the ex- penses of his campaign.

A concerted and determined effort Is being made in Portland. Oregon. to in- crease the citys revenues by some plan of licenses. A special committee for the chamber of commerce and one for the committee of one hundred have been meeting with representatives of the city council In arranging an elaborate H. cense schedule As far as they have gone, taking up the business to be taxed alpha betically, their proposals are some- what novel. Among the proposed H. cense charges are the following: Ad- vertisng agents. s5 per quarter; banks with over $50. 900 capital, s25 per quarter; bicycle riders fourteen years of age or over, $1; money and loan brokers. s2O per quarter; commercial agencies, $25 per quarter; circuses, $500 each twenty four hours; detective agencies. s25 per quarter; mediums or soothsayers. S5 per day; cigar stands with card rooms, $50; employment agencies, S25 per quar- ter A tax was imposed on commercial travellers doing business in the city, but this was voted down.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE.

Christian science" has again been in court, this time in Nebraska, where the Supreme court of that State has had to pass on the professional stand ing of Christian science healers, who practice for fees, and has, practically, classed them with other quacks. The court carefully refrained from express ing any direct opinion as to the efficacy of their mode of treatment, but held that "a person who makes a practice of attempting to cure the ailments of others, for a compensation, cannot be exempted from the law requiring a license, in order to be allowed to prac- tice medicine, although he claims to cure by Christian science, and to do so as an act of worship or matter of conscience" The decision was render ed in a criminal proceeding brought to punish Christian science healer, practicing for revenue only, without a license.
 A curious feature of the case was the citation by the judge of passages of the Bible as authority for his opinion, the defendant claiming that its teachings gave warrant for his conduct. The court quoted, as directly applicable to the matter in hand, the case of Simon, the sorcerer, to whom St. Peter said: "Thy money perish with thee because thou hast thought that the gift of God may purchased with money" and the case of Gehazi, servant of the prophet Elisha, smitten with leprosy be. cause he secretly took pay from the dis tinguished, Assyrian patient, whom the prophet had freely cured.
 The citations do not seem to be gen. orally applicable. Preachers of the gos- pei help to cure sin-sick souls and they are paid for it. They feel and say that the laborer is worthy of his hire There are frauds among them who think more of the money thansof their work. Honest Christian scientists try to cure sick bodies by faith and prayer and what seeQss,R them tot be pious teaching. Thefe ake frauds among them and they deser*G the censure of the Nebraska judge. And we suppose. that as things are in this world at present anybody who practices medicine in any way for pay ought to have . license.
