AT Cleveland, Ohio, on Thursday, the
prayers of 5000 Christian Endeavorers
assembled to the throne of grace for the con
version of Col. Robert G. Ingersoll from
agnosticism and infidelity to belief in
orthodox christianity. Added to these
we're the prayers of innumerable mem
bers of the salvation army, many of
whom will fortify their prayers with per-
sonal appeals to the skeptical Ingersoll.
Whatever efficacy there may be in
prayer, it is doubtful if the present gen
Grafton will see any radical metamor-
phosis in the religious beliefs of the
colonel. The prayers of the righteous,
SO it is said, avail much. But the as
sembly of 5000 Christian Endeavorers
with a set purpose to pray long and lus-
tily for the salvation of Col. %Ingersoll, is
too much after the tom-tom methods
of salvation adopted by the salvation
army. It savors of the sensational, and
the time which is thus employed could
be put to better and more practical use,
did each one of the 5000 devote it to dis
pensing practical charity, whenever OPP
portunity offered. This wholesale prayer
meeting will serve to furnish Ingersoll
with a new shaft of ridicule to let fly at
his old enemy, the church, and will per-
haps render the colonel firmer in his
present convictions.

ANOTHER severe loss to the literary
world is in the death of Alexander
Dumas,1 the brilliant French novelist.
Dumas is probably best known to the
world through his Count of Monte
Cristo, which has probably been more
widely read than any other of his works.
Dumas was a combination of French and
African, his grand father having been a
full blooded negro. The dead novelist
was born in 1924.

According to the Courant two women

traveller in the mountains near Bottineau
a few nights ago. The traveller pulled a

for a fight as soon as the parties
appeared in the road ahead of him.
When he demonstrated that he meant
war to the hilt the robbers quit and
allowed him to proceed.

AN interesting symposium of the
Thanksgiving proclamations of the gov
errors of all the states in the union is
published by the Chicago Tribune. They
are not protracted documents, any of
them. The longest is that of Governor
McIntire of Colorado, the shortest that
of Governor Mcconnell of Idaho, who
uses but sixty-ive words, although Gov
ernor Brown Of Maryland used but three
more words than the Idaho executive.
Governor McConnell's proclamation is
interesting for more than it's brevity.
Besides the usual preamble that the pro-
clamation is made in conformity to cus-
tom, he adds: s'And in accordance with
Section 10, general provisions of the re-
vised statutes, I hereby proclaim" etc.
Three of the governors, those of Ohio,
Minnesota and South Dakota, use scrip
tural quotations in their proclamations.
In the majority of cases general peace
and prosperity and time-honored custom
were the reasons set forth why the peo-
pie should gather together for the desig-
mated purpose. Occasionally special
causes for thanksgiving are mentioned.
Thus in Arizona and in New Mexico
"copious and bounteous rains" were
among the things to be most thankful
for. Mississippi rejoiced that "peace
and quiet have been fully restored"
South Carolina felt grateful for the
"marked progress of temperance re-
forms" and Utah recognized that it was
"on the threshold of enlarged and de-
voutly sought for sovereignty" Every
proclamation without exception closes
with a recommendation that the poor be
remembered as the most certain and
practical way Of making the day one of
real Thanksgiving. Even distant Alaska
finds itself in touch with it's sister terri
tories. Although Thanksgiving day
offers there less of holiday than in
warmer climates, the governor always
issues a proclamation making the day a;
holiday to be duly observed.

BEGGING THE QUESTION.

The following article Is reproduced
from the San Francisco Mining and
Scientific Press, in order that the public
may realize to what extremity the apollo
gists for hydraulic mining have been
driven by the publication of some plain
and pertinent facts in the REcoRD-UNIoN
during the last month or six weeks:
The RECoRD-UNIoN is now after the quartz
miners, and sayg that the quartz grit coming
from the stamp mills sis the most injurious
form of debrisn First, it was hydraulic min
ing that incurred the REcoRD-UNIoN'S dis
pleasure: then drift mining came under the
ban. and now the poor quartz miners are ex-
communicated. With butter at 10 cents a
pound the man who makes two blades OF
grass grow where but one grew before is a

The courage of the Napa County Of
fioials in arresting the highwaymen who
stood up stages in that county ought to
inspire other officers to such duty-doing
that road agents will find the business of
the highwayman too hazardous to
pursue. There has been altogether TOO
much weakness in the past in obeying
the command of the robber to "halt and
deliver" OF the many conflicts between
officers and highwaymen in this State. we
recall the record of not one that reflects
more honor upon officers than that of
last week in which the Napa officials dis
tinguished themselves SO greatly. Messrs.
Brownles, Bell, True and Williams are
deserving of recognition for their courage
and perslstency, of a lastin and valuable
order.

LOOK UPON THIS PICTURE, AND
THEN UPON THAT.

Judge Addison Brown Of the Circuit
Court for the District of New York has
decided that the mere issuing of pass is
not violation of the interstate com merce
law, on the ground that the pass itself is
not transportation. The pass would en-
title the holder to transportation without
payment, but it is not Of itself transporta-
ton any more than q ticket to theatsr
is Shakespsarean play. The offense is
not complete by writing or printing upon
piece of paper instructions to the con-
ductors Of trains to accept the paper in
lieu Of passage money. The law was in
tended to prevent discrimination in
granting rates of freight and fares to citi-
zens of the country. Nothing has been
granted unless the pass itself has been
used that is to say, discrimination arises
out of actual transportation-not mere
permit to person to ride upon train
free. This is SO obviously reasonable and
just that the conclusions of the learned
Judge will not be criticised by the legal
profession. To give man ticket which
entities him to ride on the train, when
the ticket is never used, 10 not an act of
conferrinR upon one citizen the benefit of
free travel from one State to another. He
must indeed, have enjoyed that i'm
munity to make the act of giving pass
an offense against other citizens of the re-
public or against the peace and dignity of
the United States. The man who loans
another pistol is not chargeable with
being an accomplice in the crime of MUIR
der if no murder has been committed.
The matter, however, to which we de-
sire to call special attention at this time is
the manner in which Judge Browns de-
cision is received by certain of the press
in California. Judge Brown is certainly
not under the influence Of the railroad
magnste. Mr.. Huntington did not secure
his appointment. He is not amenable in
any way to the influence of the Southern
Pacific Company: He Is in fact quite out
Of the orbit of the influence of that cor
poration. If the Judge of q Federal
or State Court III California had held In
accordance with the opinion Judge
Brown has just handed down, our es-
teemed contemporaries would have found
in that fact conclusive evidence of his
amsnability to the influence of the South
ern Pacific Company. He would have
been denounced as q railroad Judge. The
judicial incident would have been held
up as illustrative Of the undue influence
which railroads exercise over the judg-
ments Of courts.
Speaking for ourselves, we are sorry
that it is not an offaese to issue an inter-
state pass. We find, however. some
qualification in the fact that the issuing of
such a pass becomes an offense by it's
use.

Now we have a competent Board of
Health, but it cannot work without tools.
1t cannot prevent diseases that are recog-
nized as preventable without the neces-
sary agencies. and the chief of these is an
inspector of its own choosing. and
wholly under its own direction, to the
end that the causes of preventible disease
may be searched out and the actuaring in
fuencs negatived. It follows, therefore,
that when the Board of Health deter
mines, as 1t bias done, that a Sanitary In
spector is needed, distinct and apart from
the Plumbing Inspector, its judgment
should prevail. 1t is put into office for
just that purpose-the determination of
