RIGHT AGAIN.

The Times got on the right side of q
question yesterday in the part of its
editorial referring to delinquent tax
payers and the HERALD gave their
good advice to its readers, the reby get.
ting it before the people. 1t was so
unlocked for that 1t caused q rush OF
compliments which encouraged the
able writer to follow it up with anoth-
er appeal TO the delinquents, worthy OF
giving space. Under the head of ~ iii
Mt Repudiate," it says this morn
ing:
The Times editorial of yesterday
has Ie.elved the endorsement of 81
many af our citlz ms We are encouraged
to once more urge our fellow citizens,
the deiinquentS, In a spirit of friend j.
ness TO pay their taxes. The chief OBJ
lection, the water bond tax, having
been removed, we have received fuI
value for the Da ance of our indebted
nees. We have our school houses, the
blessings OF which we have been en-
joylng for years past-and all those
who come afJer us will be alike bene-
fittsd. This Is the reason ali pu bile
buildings and publ improvements vi
q permanent nature should be built
with the proceeds of long time bonds.
We have our sewer system, the ben
etits of which cannot De calculated. We
have our fire equipment
and such other property as the
city possesses. 1t may De claimed
by some that there has been
unnecessary expenditures, including
the scrip Indebtedness, a TACT which
we will admit, but We have on an aver
age enjoyed better city government
than niflal tho psy~u T.,
any event, rs the indebtedness now
stands, we hone stiy owe 1t, therefore
ask if there ID one citizen who will
stand out publicly and say: After hav-
ing received the benefit OF a good City
government, and being IN possession of
the school houses, sewerage system, fir
equipment and otner valuable property
OF 1.-The city, that ne is in favor OF re-
pudiating any part of the debt-eveu if
he could legally do so. We answer:
No, there is not a man, in our opinion,
who would be called Il epudiatOr. Nor
one who would exchange even a bad
city government for none at all. Sup
pose every tax payer should refuse to |
pay his taxes because his neighbor re-
fused to do SO? We would then have |
no police, police court, fire depart
ment, schools or prote ctiOn of aoy kind. |
What would your property then be |
worth?
There is an everlasting vital question |
involved in this issue. We there |
fore urge every citizen to come forward |
and pay his taxes, and in future tax, |
q greater interest in the affairs OF the |
city. Unite with other enterprisipg |
citizens in the work of building up a |
city which you can accom-
plish much sooner than if left to drift |
about ss in the past few years. No man
" no does not take an interest in the
city, but leaves others TO do what be
should help to do, has any reason for
complaint.

AQUIEr SESSION.
Nothing i'll the Line of Sensations at
Last Night Council Meeting.

There was sort of expectation in the
air yesterday that something of an ex-
plosive nature would be fired off in the
council last night at the regular meet
ing; that is, something of very solid
nature would be heard to drop-aIl
on account of the defest of the
bonds. Bot expectation was disap-
pointed: nothing was h. ard to drop,
his honor the mayor appeared ss ca
am and kool as the placidest sea, Judge
Coldwell was sick aud at home, and

HOW THE BIBLE is ITALICIZED.
Expressions without an Equivalent in the

Expressions without an Equivalent in thu
English Language.
The prevalence OF ciliptical idioms in
Hebrew and Greek rendered it ncces-
sary, in translating the Bible into Eng
lish, to put in many words which are
not represented in the original, in order
to complete the case. or to make the
English version Ineligible. All words
SO supplied are distinguished by italics,
In order that the reader may see at a
glance how far it has been found neces-
sary to depart from that literal tlansla-
ton at which the translators aimed, and
also that, by the simple process of re-
moving the italics, he may see, If he
choose. what the literal rendering is.
In cases where very peculiar idiom
made it necessary to make any greater
changes, the literal rendering of the
Hebrew or Greek is given in the margin,
in which, be it observed. The arrange
ment used W the text is reversed, and
italics are used for those words which
literally occur III the original Roman
| letters for those which the translators
are Obliged to supply. In two passages,
however, the translators of our author
lied version have used italics for an en-
tirely different purpose, These are st.
John viii, G, Gas though he heard then,
not, and the first epistle of st. john
ii, 23, HE that acknowledged the Son
hath the Father also" In these pas
suges the italics are used to show that
the words are of doubtful manuscript
! authnritv-a fact which the translators
occasionally noted in the margin, but Of
which they generally took no notice.

How To Revive Electric Shock Victims.
The person so disabled should be
treated ike one drowned. In other
words, he should be laid upon the back,
and artificial respiration performed in
the way that is ordinarily described,
When the person is still in contact with

to stop the current or break the contact.
In doing the latter one should not touch

naked part of the body. II is better to
lift him by the coattails or to throw a
blanket over him and pull him by this.
Nothing that is wet should be thrown
upon him, and if his clothes are wet
the hands should not be put in contact
with them. A piece Of dry wood can be
placed under the body and he can then
be lifted. The further treatment of the
case is the familiar one applied in at
tempting to restore the drowned. The
arms are worked, and the tongue is
kept drawn out. The body may some
times be rubbed thoroughly with cloth
or brush in order to increase the circu-
lation of the blood. Oxygen and perhaps
