Lord Cranborne evidently has been annoyed
by the sequel TO the episode. and is now disposed

The real explanation Of the discontinue of the

THE ASH QUESTION
And It's Recent Exploitation by the
Munsey Organ-Wonderful Exhi-
bltlon OF Fearless Criticism.

rhe l11gey has vigorously ana very dip
lomatically taken up the ash question and
the ash,nan, both subjects having been
thrashed out in these columns all the past
summer and early fall.
The GLOBE published reams of corre-
spondence and few editorials calling at
tentiou to the capricious manipulation of
fhe ashcan and the ash business. The sub
ject has now gotten AROUND to the Times,
having passed the Star Office tstockholder
in the garbage and dead animal snap) and
the way the Munsey organ is handling the
subject reminds the GLOBE of the girl
crossing the river on stepping stones"
The young lady was piously brought up,
and as she ventured out too near the middle
of the river the stepping stones became
more dangerous, slippery and wider apart.
Up to the time she reached the middle of
the river at each step she made her ex-
clamation of God IS good" announced her
safety and her thankfulness. It struck her,
however, when she reached the dangerous,
stepping places that the devil might play
her a trick and become jealous and angry at
her sole dependence on God, thus ignoring
his power The girl, being a diplomatic as
we'll as a pious wench, surmounted the diff
fculty without offending heaven, she
thought, by adding after each exclamation
of God is good" the suppressed acknOwl-
edgment but the devil amt so bad either"
It is somewhat after this God is Good
but "the devil isn't bad, +" that the Times is
handling the ash can evil. How it will
come out, whether like the Man aud his
ass" in the fable, pleasing nobody, or veer
round to the championship of the ash
man or the citizen, no accurate guess can
now be made from the matter so far pub
lished. The Star has already come 20 the
rescue of the District in the matter, in its
usual indirect way, and the Times is
slightly weakening per consequence. The
GLOBE congratulates the readers of both
newspapers on their good taste in patron
izing and supporting such honest (?) and
fearless CD organs of public (2) opinion

Captain Lord.

Capt. T W. Lord has been seen by at
least one reliable witness since he mys-
teriously disappeared from Col. Tom Mar
shalps restaurant on F street.
John d. Powell, editor of the Boston
AdUocate, states that he was formerly EN-
ployed as file clerk in the United States
Patent Office, this city, coming into imme-
diate contact with Captain Lord, at the
time chief of division of the Patent Office.
According to Mr. Powell, he saw Captain
Lord on Saturday morning last, at Brookline
street and Shawmut avenue, Boston, at
about 9 O'Clock, and Powell was hurrying
toward his Office on Washington street at
the time. The writer insists that he does
not think he could have been mistaken.
