MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT.

1t is surprising with what Indifference
the average voter Of the better class treats
the question OF municipal government.
The tin-horn gambler-politician, and his
corner saloon mate, are ever active; see
that their retainers from the slums are
registered; are at the caucus to do their
bidding, and then votes them like cattle !;
while the first mentioned voter sits BY
his comfortable Preside, and ii the neces.
sary exertion TO register has been made,
will, perhaps, attend the caucus, without
any idea other than 10 vote for the one
who happens to be nominated, and which
nomination is not by any means the re-
suit Of chance but OF carefully prepared
plan OF the second class OF voters men.
toned
The policy OF every community could
be dictated by the better element if they
would but get oot and do their duty as
voters and citizens, and without great
deal Of exertion on the part OF any one if
all such wonld do their part; and the
unprincipled, selfish scoundrels who
usually run things, could be relegated to
the rear, where they belong, or landed in
the penitentiary, where many OF them
ought to be.
Another difficulty in the way OF good
government is the refusal Of good men to
do their duty toward the community in
which they live, and bear their share Of
the burdens. by refusing to accept Office.
They seem 10 be more afraid Of little
adverse criticism than Of the results Of
government by the class that usually
rule. No community can have the very
best possible government unless all of
the best people take part in debating its
policy, electing its officers, and serving
when called upon. These facts should be
thoughtiully pondered over by every
voter as each election approaches, and
should result in determination on the
part of all TO do their duty.

appointed vestryman in an Episcopal
church in a city which lay at one end OF
his route.
One day shortly afterward it was re-
ported to him, when on shore, that
there was leak in the church. he was
accustomed to promptness, and on re-
ceipt Of the message he went to the
church, took candle and started down
into the cellar to find the leak, evident

In commenting upon these figures it
says:
1--WE have not verified these figures,
but assume that they are correct. They
are worth a little comment. 1t will be
noted that under the operation OF the re-
yised tariff We have had one year in
which the imports exceeded the exports,
and one in which the exports exceeded
the imports; also, that there was de-
crease OF imports in the second year and
an increase Of exports; also. that in the
two years our imports exceeded our ex-
ports by little under $50, 900. 0N."
In these comments is where the error
lies. The facts are that these figures do
not represent two years of the revised
tariff, but the last year Of the Mckinley
tariff and the first year Of the revised
tariff. The reports are for the fiscal years
ending June 50 Of the respective years.
The revised tariff did not become law
until August, 1894, or after the beginning
OF tue second fiscal year mentioned above.

Throughout the country there is strong
and large demand for car factory stock
and timber for railway construction pur.
poses. This is a positive feature Of cur
rent business, and has All important
bearing on the supply Of various special.
ties Of mill product at the present. and
especially in the near future. 1t involves
white and norway pine, yellow pine, oak
and several other hard woods. 1t is an
initiative movement, and has pro-
nounced significance as pointing to a
rising demand in a large sense, which
will eventually have a wider reach than
the mere supply of railway material. 1t
is kind Of demand that, in this country,
always precedes general uprising in the
lumber trade as a whole. 1t means that
traffic is growing and developing to de-
gree that the railway companies are en-
couraged to make Improvements and
enlarge their carrying capacity. 1t is an
evidence that trade and industry are
expanding and increasing operations.
When the railways are crowded with
traffic so that it has become necessary for
them to increase their capacity to handle
the products O; field and factory. there
must be resulting thrift among the PEG.
