The reformers who have undertaken TO
reform New York city are not finding the
task an easy one. The police commits
sioncrs are having trouble among them
selves. and their purifying and reforming
methods are not giving as much salts
faction as it was hoped they would. The
commissioners just now are trying Police
Captain Eakins, and Col. Grant, one Of the
commissioners, said in the presence Of the
other commissioners. and while the trial
was in progress. that he believed the pros
ecution Of the captain was a crime There
is but one Interpretation that can be prop
erly given to that language. and that is
that in Commissioner Grants opinion.
Capt. Eakins is being tried not because
there are good grounds for thinking him
guilty of the charges, but to satisfy public
opinion. If that is the kind OF re-
form New York city is getting, the people
Of that city will become tired Of IT very
soon. and wonder whether, after all, the
movement started by Or. Parkhurst will
have any other result than the removal of
one set of politicians from the offices and
the filling of the vacancies thus created
with another set.
And the progress that is being made in
the efforts to close the saloons on Sun
days is not encouraging. In fact it is
becoming 50 evident that the people intend
to have their beer on Sundays that the
mayor has thrown out the suggestion of
the advsability of submitting the question
whether or not the saloons shall be opened
on Sundays to a popular vote. In the
event of such vote it is almost certain
that the majority would vote in favor of
keeping the saloons open on Sundays. Tho
foreign element would, of course. vote
that way, and the chances are the repub-
lican and democratic leaders would as
sist them with the hone of gaining their
good WILL and thus controlling their votes
in future elections. In that event the
doors of the saloons would DO wide open
every Sunday
The prospect of such a condition of affairs
must be alarming to DR.. Parkhurst, who
started the reform movement. To see all
of his hard work come to nothing would
be distressing to him. He realizes now
doubtless the truth of the saying that one
man can lead horse TO water but fifty
cannot make him drink. If the majority
of the people of New York city are against
the reforms which DR.. Parkhurst and his
friends seek to accomplish it is difficult
to see how it is possible to make them ac-
cept them, especially if those chosen to
carry into effect the proposed reforms are
not in full and hearty sympathy with
them.
The condition of affairs in the city, how
ever, may become so bad that the people
outside of the city will rise up in their
might and force the city to adopt the re-
forms. 1t looks now as # DR.. Parkhurst
would have to depend upon such an up
rising for purifying the city in accordance
with his views.

1t seems that the Duchess of Marlbor-
ough, formerly Mrs. IIamersley of New
York, slipped down. socially, when not
long ago she married Lord William Beres-
ford. 1t is said the lady never intended
to take her last husbands name and rank
but her majesty, the queen. who is a die
tator in social affairs in Great Britain
lately issued a memorandum in a court
decree TO the effect that when a lady of
title marries again. and her husband is
OF lower rank. she must descend to his
station. Thus, at recent drawing room
a lady was introduced as Lady Egerton
of Tatton. formerly the Duchess of Buck
ingham." This illustrates how the former
Mrs. Hamersley has dropped in the social
scale. She is now plain Lady William
Beresford and is not. even by courtesy
the Dowager Duchess of Marlborough.

A sign of Returning Prosperity.

A Sign of Returning Prosperity.
Newspapers devoted to advertising and
advertising agents report that the pros
poets for a good business this fall by news
papers generally are very promising. This
is the best evidence of restored confidence
in trade. Newspapers are the barometers
of business; when there is a change. they,
of all businesses. feel the quickest its eff
fects. When the question of economy
comes up the advertiser cuts down his
advertising to save money He should not
do so. as it "only makes bad matters
worse" But still many of them kill the
goose that lays the golden eggs"
OF course, there are a few wise adver-
tisers who keep right on and gather in
the customers. but they are exceptions to
the rule
Then the economical subscriber, who has
to retrench because of hard times, stops
his paper. 1t only costs him. if he takes the
Savannah Weekly News. two cents a
week. but he had rather spend his two
cents for a 'two-for-five" cigar. or ten
cents for a piece of pressed molasses,
liquorice and tobacco. called plug tobacco,
than to provide his wife and family with
a good newspaper.
How many newspapers and good books
a man can buy with the money he spends
for whisky there is no telling. 1t is not
improbable that quite number of men in
Georgia spend enough in red liquor and
other drinks in a few years to collect a
library like that of the Georgia Historical
Society. However. we are not going into
a discussion of the temperance question
from an economical standpoint. but will
return to the text
There are strong indications in the news
paper world that business is getting bet
ter, and that while the improvement is
slow, 1t is positive.
Advertisers are placing their orders and
subscribers renewing their subscriptions.
Already a number of advertisers who
spend hundreds of thousands of dollars
annually in printers ink are preparing to
enter the field this fall with the same vim
that they displayed before the late de-
preston in business.

MIR. oIeveIand's Candidate.

MIR. CIeveIand's Candidate.
A New York sun cablegram announces
that the report is. current in England that
Ambassador Bayard Is Mr.. CIeveland's
candidate for the nomination Of the Dem
Ocratic party FOR President. This report
ought 10 satisfy the sun that Mr. Cleve-
land is not a candidate for the nominal
ton
For months the sun has been worried
by the probability. that Mr.. Cleveland has
third term aspirations. This report that
he has a candidate for the nomination
may also cause it uneasiness.
Mr.. Cleveland has not said directly, and
over his own signature. that he is not
candidate. but he has said enough 10 jus
tify the conclusion that he has made up
his mind TO withdraw from public life at
the termination of hts present term. There
are few. among them the sun. who pre-
tend 10 believe. or who do believe. that
he is ambitious TO succeed himself as
President. but those who have his conf
dence and others who are in position
10 form a pretty correct opinion in re
spoct TO the matter. are satisfied that his
ambition for public donors is satisfied.
And this story that Mr.. Bayard is his
candidate Tor the presidential nomination
of the Democratic party next
year is about as nonsensicai
as the one that puts him in the position
of wanting the nomination himself. All
the indications are that he is anxious only
to make his administration a success. He
knows he can render his party no greater
service than to so administer the gov
eminent that the people Will be satisfied
with it.
A year ago It was the very general
opinion that the Democratic party had
no chance for electing the next President.
The panic of 1893 and the business depres-
sion that followed caused much dissatis-
faction with the administration, but re-
Gently public sentiment has undergone
great change. 1t is apparent now that the
Republican party is responsible for the
conditions that brought on the panic. and
that to Mr.. Cleveland's administration is
due the credit for extricating the coun-
try from a perilous situation. The cour-
age and judgment shown by the admin
istration at a time when it required states
manship of a high order to direct the
affairs of the nation successfully are just
beginning to be understood and appreciat-
ed. As times become better the people are
able 10 see more clearly the service which
the administration has rendered. and they
are generous enough to bestow praise
where it belongs.
The prospect that the Democratic party
will elect the next President grows
brighter daily. If the prosperity Of the
country continues to increase and the
democrats nominate strong man and
take a bold stand for sound money. the
next President Will. In all probability, be
a democrat.
But Mr.. Cleveland viii not be the nomi-
nee of the democrats, nor will he attempt
to name the nominee. He has confidence
enough IN the Democratic party to trust
it to make a nomination that win satisfy
the country. He Will conine his efforts
to opening the way for the election Of the
ticket the Democratic party dominates.

Accidentally Killed Himself by Shooting
Bullet Passed Through His Heart-He
Was Cleaning Pistol ut His Home in
Islip,
New York, Aug, 12,-News OF the sud
den death of Edward Miller Cameron. a
millionaire whose first wife was the
daughter of the late Richard Arnold of
Arnold, Constable & Co., shocked the
residents of West Islip, L, l., last night,
where Mr., Cameron was one of the
most prominent and respected residents.
1t was said that he had died of heart
disease.
The coroner's inquest this morning de-
veloped the fact that Mr. Camerons
death was caused by a pistol shot
wound, accidentally inflicted by himself.
He was cleaning a pistol in his room at
$ O'Clock yesterday afternoon, accord
ing to the verdict of the coroner's jury,
when the weapon was accidentally dis
charged, and the bullet passed through
his heart. He died instantly
Edward Cameron was a young clerk
in Arnold, Constable & Co.'s store in
this city scarcely over twenty-one years
of age when he met the daughter of the
senior member of the firm. They fell in
love with each other, and despite the
difference in position were married in a
| chnpt TINA On no rof
the union.
Two years after the marriage Mrs.
| Cameron died. She left all her prop
erty, amounting, 1t is said, to considera-
bly, over million, to her husband and
child.
Mr. Cameron married a second time.
His bride was Miss Annie CARL daugh-
ter of the late John Henry CARL and
granddaughter of Obadiah Snedecor, the
once famous proprietor Of the South
Side club of Islip. BY her he had two
children.
For the last year Mr.. Cameron had
been ailing, although he was only thir-
| ty-two years of age. He lived quietly
with his wife and children in the beau
| tiful Islip mansion. He carried on no
active business, although he was presi-
dent of the Hygeia Distilled Water com
pany of this city and had a brokerage
office at 26 Broad street. He was known
to some extent in clubdom here, being
on the rolls of the Manhattan and New
| York clubs.
Mr.. Cameron is said to have been
worth from $1,000, 900 to 100000. His
second wife and three children survive

DRIsCo1z YOU'D SETTLE.
The Contractor Offers His Creditors Fifty
Cents on the Dollar.

Cents on the Dollar.
Michael +. Driscoll, the contractor
who built the annex to the postotfice,
has written the sub-contractors that he
will settle with them for so cents on the
dollar The building has just been ac-
cepted by the government, but Mr..
Driscoll says he has lost money on the
contract and can now pay only SO cents
on the dollar. He says he accepted the
contract price under protest and will
sue in the court of claims for the sum
he lost in putting up the building, on
the ground that the government refuses
to pay for extras and caused delay in
the work.
While the building was going up the
inspector several times found that the
work was not done according to the
plans and ordered the contractor to
make the necessary changes. All this
extra work Mr.. Driscoll put in claim
for. and it was not allowed.
Should he win his suit he says he will
pay the other so cents. 1t will prob
ably be three years before the suit can
be decided.
Daniel E. Mcnamara, the plumber in
Gregson street, who had a $500 con-
tract on the building, is circulating a
paper among the sub-contractors for
them to sign for a settlement of so
cents on the dollar.
The other claimants are Hayes &
Rourke, plumbers; the ]. Glib Smith
company, woodworkers; James Farrell,
painter, and the Brainard Quarry COM
pany, Of Portland, this state.
