This reform has not been accom-

board was accomplished ten or twelve
years ago. No alderman who sold his
vote for bride has been sent to the
pcnitentiary.
Public opinion in both parties has
done the work. Doodle aldermen have
been refused denominations or have
been defeated ut the polls. The species
has fallen into disrepute and into nm
popularity, which they regard as fan
worse condition.
Now, Chicago must reform its mem

In this connection the Mayor rciter
ated his statement concerning the IN
cleanliness of the streets in certain
parts of Boston, which city he vsite,
during his late Eastern trip. He de
clared that the curse of the city wa,
its alleys in their unpaved condition
and said that clean city could no

The Mayor took issue with I'll,
declaration of Mr.. MacVeagh that tn,

In conclusion Mayor Harrison dc
clared that Chicago had to thank sucl
organizations as the Municipal Voters
League and the Commercial Club 70
the assistance they had given in sccu,

club that 1t should aid in the organlza

What are the two changes in the per-
fonal appearance Of people which would
most surprise Rip Van Wrinkle, open

According TO recent observer they
would be the number Of persons, young

the few OF any age who We're pitted

The employment agencies in Chicago
report a great scarcity of men who are
willing TO go 10 the country to work.
The farmers of the Northwest sent in Il
call for hundreds of men. They offered
from SIS 10 SO month wages, with
board and washing, for able-bodied
workmen, but comparatively few We're
found. There Is a similar scarcity Of
railroad labOrers. for whose rervices

The prevalence of divorce Is simply
appalling. 1t appears from reliable
statistics that fully half the people
that are married seek separation
through the courts. A cursory glance
at the cause of complaint shows "cru-
city" and failure to provide" are very
common causes, ranking above drunk
enness and faithlessness. AS is well
known, the charges of cruelty and fail
ure to provide are usually grounded
merely in incOmpatibilty. The cruelty
is usually harsh language or threats,
and the desertlon or failure to provide
is usually the result of an agreed sep.
aratiOn. Centuries ago the Church Of
Rome realized the danger from divorce,
and used all the power of religion to
check it, by making 1t one of the for
hidden things under any circumstances
and one does not find Catholics In
the divorce courts. We do not regard
the growth of divorce as so much the
fault of lax laws as of lax morals.
There Is, outside Catholicism, too lit
tie effort to impress the young with the
sanctity of the marriage vow. Too oft
en- the youth enters the bonds with the
vague notion that II he shall fail OF
happiness. the burden of matrimOny
may be shifted, while altogether too
often the maiden enters the holy state

1t is with pleasure that we call the
attention of the trade, ana private fam
lilies, to the fact that owing to the in
creasing demand for bottled ale and
porter OF undoubted purity and of the
finest quality, we are now bOttling the
same under our own supervision.
The frequent use of adulterants and
substitutes for malt and hops in the
manufacture OF malt liquors has re-
suited In an inquiry for an article of
domestic manufacture. wholly free
from anything of harmful or deleterl-
commend Its use to all. The failure
hitherto to obtain such an article has
led consumers to purchase imported
goods mt high price.
Therefore we are prepared to place
on the market bottled ale and porter
unexcelled In quality, equal in every
respect to the imported, at a much
lower price.
Our goods being manufactured from
the choicest barley malt and the best
hops In the market, no substitutes
whatever being used, and, being bottled
by ourselves at Waukegan, enables us
to offer to our customers an absolute
guaranty Of their purity and quality.
Families can obtain these goods OF
all the leading fancy grocers, the prin-
cipal hotels, restaurants and druggists.

In a recent sermon Rev. Il. Trumbull
Lee made the statement that "newspa-
pers lionize criminals" adding. III you
want to get your picture on the front
page OF every paper, with faring
headlines, all you have to do nowadays
Is TO commit some big robbery, murder
or other horrible crime" Rev. Lee
has fallen into the common error OF
installing notOriety for fame. They
have little In common. Publicity Is
the backbone of public morals, Just as
surely as secrecy fosters and abets
crime. Fear of publicity Is Il police
officer who is always on duty. Men
with criminal instincts In uncOunted
cases have refrained from wrOngdoing
for no other reason than that they
feared the picture and the flaming
headlines of which Rev. Lee has
spoken. Publicity Is the enemy Of
crime, and the reputable newspapers
of the country are doing the community
at large Il service In making 1t impOs-
sible for great wrongdoers to hide their
misdeeds.

Ii is to be hoped that the coun-
try is through hearing of the
Schley-Sampson controversy.
The board ofinquiry after having
spent several months in going in
to every detail of the case has re-
turned,its findings. The Court
is divided, Admirals Benham
and Ramsey condemning Schley
on eleven points, and upholding
MIN on two. Admiral Dewey
dlssents from the opir ion, and
defends Schley, saying that the
latter was the senior officer in
command, off Santiago, and is en-
titled to the credit for the victory
AS the opinion of Dewey will
count about as much with the
American people as that of any
other two admirals in the service
Schley may be considered to have
got a little the best of the affair.
although he has no great occa-
sion to throw flowers at himself
as a result of the findings. Ad-
mlral Schley has been calm and
dignified during the whole pro
ceedlngs, and the American peo-
pie have been inclined to the be-
lief that he was 'sgetting the
worst OF it, in official circles.
They have showered their SYM
pathy upon him in such a whole
sale manner as to almost lose
sight of the real facts in connec.
ton with the dispute that existed
between he and Sampson. But
no matter what the conclusions.
the public is satisfied to re-
gard, as they have from the start.
Schley as a magnificent hero and
true gentleman, and any man
who is held in such enviable es-
TEEN as that by his countrymen
ought to We pretty well satisfied
that his ife's work has been
crowned with success.
