The damage done the NJ +. Church,
South by fire two weekSs ago has been
repaired sufficiently to permit the con-
grcgation to worship at the usual hours
tomorrow (SundayD An exchange of
heating furnaces had been made, using
the old pipe, and it is believed the latter
was too small for the larger furnace.
Thence the fire was communicated to
sills, floor and outer wall making quite
an opening in the last before eXtim-
guished. Happily the class-mceting
hour had brought quite il number to the
church at the critical moment. 1t was
decided to make no alarm, but to set to
wOrk-mrn and women, and put it out.
This was done with will, or the loss
would have been greater.

Wherein They Disagree.

The clause in the Borden Mining com
panys conveyance of water reservoir
site to the town to which the Mayor and
COuncilmcn except is as follows:
saving and excepting from the operation
of this deed all the coat and all other min.
erals which may be under the aforesaid de
scribed lot or parcel of land, "iM tie right TO
enter ond toke the Some .fro" "n,ier Sdjd prem
iScS etc.
1t is held that the italicized clause is Il
reservation unusual i'll conveyanceS
hcreabout, and such as no purchaser can
accept who wishes to remain perpetually
secure from interruption or damage.
In the present case especially it is held
that the company practically reserves the
right, if its interest seems to require, to
undermine and destroy the towns means
of water storage.
Probably this is true, and the prob
ability being on that side of the contcm-
ton, it may be Just as we'll that the town
authorities guard against contingencies
with the same foresight the company
exhibits i'll providing for them.
Meanwhile, it is to be hoped that the
parties to the issue can come together So
that the work can he commenced during
the incumbcncy of the current admins
tratiOn.

Answer.

Did any one ever hear in a democratic
national administration, or any other adj
ministration for that matter, State county
or city, the cry which is heard to-day, re
duce the surplus &C cumberland News.
The manifest earnestness of the editor
who made that inquiry inclines the JOUR
NAL to reply seriously.
A big treasury surplus i'll 1881 was the
moving cause of President Clcvrland'S
great tariff reform message to Congress
that year.
This surplus was the product jointly
of the Tariff Commission 5 notifications
of protective features of the then cur
rent Act and administrative economies
enforced during and under the r'giD'" of
reform.
The current surplus is due simply and
wholly to incidental collection by gov
eminent of taxes levied for the protcc-
ton of moneyed interests-moncy that
ought to have been left i'll the pockets of
the people.

An Excellent Show.

The German Medicine company held
the stage of Meats Opera House each

Miss DeGordon i'll character melodies are

standing the fact that the company has
medicines to sell that will cure every
physical trouble except Il broken neck
and every mental ailmemt except the
lunacleS of free coinage, protection and

best lO-cent show on the planet.

The demand for some word from the
Eckhart Philosopher lately has been SO
great that the JOURNAL, at immense eX-
pcnse, secured his very latest views for
this week. But after getting them in
type, over column, advertising de
mands, which, to poor newspapers, are
always paramount, superseded his mat,
ter and it goes over until next week.
For this the great paper asks his pardon,
as two other good articles also go over.
