DUTY OF COUNCIL AND THE POLICE.
Now that the Laughlin bill has been
defeated it devolyes upon the new
Council and the new city administra-
ton to put forth their most strenuous
efforts in behalf of the reforms which
the people demand and elected them
to inaugurate.
Upon their performance will depend
whether or not this city shall in flu
ture be threatened with deprivation
of it's charter rights through State in
reference in its local affairs. The
city has escaped but narrowly this
time. 1t will not escape again unless
it shall prove able to properly man
age Its own affairs and capable of
purging itself of abuses such as have
disgraced it and it's government in the
recent past. Unless this shall be fully
shown the demand for State interior
ense to secure these necessary reforms
will grow and will not be defeated
again.
The new chief of police has already
given evidence of his determination to
do his full duty. He should be backed
and assisted by the new Council to
the fullest extent. The fake" hotels,
, the slot machines and concomitant
evils must go for good and Council
must see to it that hereafter no i'm
proper person is given license.
The burden of these reforms now
rests solely on the city authorities
and as they acquit themselves of this
duty so will the people judge them.

A noble age, fosterer of good arts, is
dying; whoever cares to may commem-
crate in song the public conveniences and
the forces of nature that have been laiG
bare
More leenly do the things permitted by
the declining century touch me; at these
l grieve and wax wroth. Oh, shame, how
many monuments of disgrace do l per
ceive in looking back,
Shall l mourn over battles and thrones
overturned, or the monsters of license
roaming at will, or the unhallowed wal

Where has vanished the honor of the
city, chief of all cities, bound by no ser

Alas, for laws turned away from the

the good man? AS soon as they are re-
moved from the affairs all laws totter and

Do ye hear? The self-confdent herd
eXtols the impiousness of science grow

Senseless, it turns in disgust from the
divine origin of our race snatchng at

Oh, into how shameful on abyss is
whirled the blind power of impotent

He who alone is the life and the certain
truth, who is the straight and only way

the years flow according to their wish for

Jesus. our judge in future time, grant
favor to the course of the rising age; by
Thy divine power compel the rebellious
people to follow better things.
DO Thou strew the seed of gentle peace,
may angry passions and quarrels and
deplOrable wars at last be queled; drive
into the realms of darkness the frauds OF
the wicked.
May one thought, under Thy lead
restrain kings that they may press on to
obey Thy laws; may there be but one
fold and one Shepherd, and may one faith
rule the world.

THE kANsAs LoDoRE.

How does Mrs. Nation
Break up a beer store?
And scatter the LIQUIDS
All over the floor?
How shatter the mirrors,
And hack up the bar?
How smash all the glasses
In waging her war.
How spill all the bitters,
how waste all the punchg
How rupture the case goods?
How wreck the free lunch,
And pitch all the lemons
Out into the street?
And dash all the sugar
In dust at her feetY
And break all the strainerS
And bend all the spoons?
And lose all the iigSers
In all the saioonsy
And bust the big ice box?
And shiver the kegs?
And crack all the bottles
As If they were eggsl
How pour out the whiskey,
The beer and the gin?
And rid whole town
or elixir of sin?
Well, according to reports in the daily
press from various points IN Kansas, the
modus operandi is somewhat as follows:
Her Ratchet she SeizeS,
And looks for place
There 5 ruin in her features,
And wrath in her face.
Helter-skelter
Hurry-skurry
Her eyes are all sparkling,
Her face L is darkling,
Till in this rapid race
On which she Is bent,
She reaches the place"
Her anger to vent.
The bar Wrecker strong
Then plupgeS along,
striking and raging,
A temperance war waglnS
The bottles and glasses among.
Singing and uinging,
Writing and wringing
Turning and twisting
Around and around
With endless rebound!
Smiling and lighting,
A sight she delights In,
Contoundlng, astounding,
Deafening the barkeepers ear with thu
sound.
And shocking and rocking,
And Crocking and knocking,
And dipping and slipping,
And hitting ana splitting,
And bending and rendiug,
And smashing and MASKING,
And lashing and haShing,
And gashing and crashing,
And slashing and Splashiug.
And uuashiuR and sguashinS,

And whizzing and stzziug.
And breaking and shaking,
And talking and raktng,
And scattering and smattering,
And rafting and battling,
And roaring and pouring,
And throwing and flowing,
And roaming and foaming,
And hopping and dropping,
And working and Jerking.
And struggling and gugglng,
And heaving and CleaVinR,
And quiverinR aria shivering.

AS TO CUBA.

There is evidently strong and
growing sentiment in certain circles at
Washington in favor of a suzerainty
by this government over Cuba. This
idea is openly advocated by the New
York Tribune, which so interprets a
phrase in Mr.. McKinley's ''interyen-
ton message" to Congress in which
he asked to be empowered Ito secure
in the islands the establishment of a
stable government capable of main
tanning order and observing its inter-
national obligations"
While the Register has long advo-
Gated even the annexation of Cuba.
already a part Of this continent geo.
graphically and believes that that is
the ultimate destiny of the island, still
this should be secured only by fair
means and with the full consent of the
people of Cuba. The government of
the United States is bound by the SOL
emn ante-bellum declaration of Con-
gress, first, that the people of Cuba
are and OF right ought to be, free and
independent; and, second, that it dis
pinned amy disposition or intention

over said island, except for the

when that is completed to

Talismans In China.

The belief In the potency of charms,
etc., is very widespread among the low.

of Yunnan. The latter In particular
