Hospital Union Meeting.


The Hospital Union is requested to
meet on next Saturday Q9) at 8 p. m..
at the hospital, and it is cordially
hoped that all who have already lent
their aid, will then be present, and that
some, who hitherto, have appeared un-
interested in this important work, will
attend this meeting. Let all come
and hear what has been, and will be
done in regard to the building and its
work-that in this matter, at least
there may be no misunderstanding.
By order of the president.

THE SWEARING TRAIN.

The number of positions filled by
the legislature has been pitiably mad
equate to the pressure for place, al
though this is probably not greater
than usual but is noticeable because
the very large republican membership
bri ,gs new applicants from new coun-
ties. For this reaon there has been a
great deal Of dissatisfaction among
applicants and many have gone home
swearing mad. The legislators, how
ever, should be given credit for not
yielding to the pressure. They ere.
ated only the usual number of positi.
ons and spportioned them as could be
expected.

MEMBERS ARE SOBER.

Two years ago the small amount of
drinking in which members.and others
INDUCED was matter of general and
favorable comment. This session alb
ste miousnesS i'll this direction is even
more marked. The bar i'll the Locke
hotel is scarcely paying the wages of
the gentlemanly attendants. to say
nothing of the first cost Of the mater.
ial i'll which they deal. 1t also true
that the number of out and-out pro-
hibitionists among the members is
small. BY way of contrast, and with
out even throwing out the hint that
prohibition and drinking go hand in
hand, it may be mentioned that the
legislature which enacted the string.
ent prohibition law of 1890, consumed
more liquor in day than the present
members at the rate at which they are
going will consume i'll IL month. A
member of that legislature said, when
jollied about drin king SO much said
We will take good care that our con-
stituents will not have Il chance to get
as full as we are" The men of that
time however, while they were hard
drinkers, were carrying out a provision
of the constitution which had been
adopted at the previous election.
There is no doubt that liquor drinking
has become unfashionble in business
circles.
