There is nothing, therefore, that the patri.

How to Bell the Cat.

The birthday of Thos. Jefferson was
celebrated by the Democrats of New
York City, Monday night. Letters
on SHOW to VIM were read from Ex-
President Cleveland, Thought-he-
was-to-be President Bryan, and Very
much desiref-to-be President Dive
Hill, were read. in which each advised
the others to be virtuous and they
would be happy. Hill wore tigers
tail around his neck, Cleveland wore
a swallow-tail bib and a third term
expression, and Bryan's eyes were
crossed in an effort to look fierce at
both the others. Cleveland's SEN
tences were as ponderous as his per-
son, Hill intimated that if the De-
mocracy would unite on him, they
could sweep the country; while Bry-
an gave a sly thrust at plutocrats,
time servers and patronage seekers.
If they could only have been present
in person, what a merry time they
would have had.

A good many hard feelings have
| been caused by the recent schoo
election. This has partially ariser
from the fact that the old board met
so we are informed, and reelected
the old teachers, and the issue or
which the new member was elected
was that all the old teachers should
not be retained. We state this just a.
we hear it without Intentionally tax
ing sides. Whether or not the boart
was justified in what they did, W,
will not state in these columns. Blu
we do feel that VIC ought not to lie
the opportunity slip of saying thi
much impartially. Next to th'
church, our public schools are tn
most sacred institutions in the land
unless it is the home. And the in
stitution where the character of ou
boys and girls is being nodded, an
where our future citizens are bein
trained is too exalted and too sacre
to be dragged into the filthy pool O
politics. The only issue that ough
to be at stake in the election o
school directors is fitness and con
Ipetence for the position. Goo
teachers should be retained, and II
moved for no other cause than il
competence. The hope of our couI
try outside the church is for th
moral temperate and christian el'
ment of our citizenship to stand II
gether and see to it that those wh
who are chosen to train our boys an
girls in the public schools are nc
only able so far as education is col
cerned, but are of the purest type {

The BAD LUCK
OF OUR NAVY.
The Maine HOOdOOed and the
Oregon. the Iowa and
the Indiana
Are Badly Injured and Have tc Go
Out OF Commission.

The new Maine has been hoodooed
trial trip. After the trouble between
her crew and officers at Newport
News, she encountered a fierce storm
had trouble with her boilers, had a
big scoop made in her decks during
target practice at Porto Rico that
rendered it necessary for her to go to
the navy yard for repairs, and she has
lost seven officers and men by death,
within a month. Her repairs will
cost heavy sum of money.
The Iowa was so badly injured while
practicing last week, by big she'll
exploding in a Pinch gun, that she
will have to undergo extensive re-
pairs that will require her going out
of commission for time.
Another war vessel, the Indiana,
met with a similar accident while
practicing, the week before, and will
also have to go to the navy yard for
extensive repairs.
The Oregon, which made the splen-
did record in the Spanish-American
war, was recently SO badly damaged
in terrible storm off Japan that it
is feared she can never be made her.
self again.
Another vessel of our navy. the AT
lanta, has met with a misfortune, but
fortunately not of so serious char
acter. She was sent up the Missis
sippi to be present at the opening OF
the st. Louis fair, and going up the
Ohio to Evansville has been caught
there by rise in the Ohio that viii
hinder her passing under railroad
bridge at Cairo, and prevent her at
tending the exercises at the Fair.
1t looks as If it would be safer fol
Uncle Sans warships to be battling
with the navy of some other power
than enjoying the pleasures of peace
