PiOus Merchan Is.

Mcssrs. Wilson, Henry & Co.. are not only
numbered among the best business men Oh
the city. but they may be little overladen
with religion. They would not, by beautiful
sights, disturb devout worshippers in their
pious meditations while passing their store
in going to and from church on Sunday
morning or on Sunday night.
Although they have sho - windows, which
for beauty OF structure and for exquisite ex.
hibit of the prettiest goods on earth would
be b ard 10 beat, yet on Saturday night they
shut down the shades. so that no sight OF
pretty shoes, the lovliest embroideries, the
most bewildering dresses, or other charming
female attire may distract the attention oi
the way farer.
We all love the beautiful, the true and the
good. Aud IL may be well that such sights
an are presented by Messrs. Henry. Wilson Il
Co., six days in the week. should be closed to
the old sinners who sit high up in the
sanctuary on Sunday morning, yet In the
name of the lovers of beauty and art we pro
test against that big curtain. Make those who
hold th cir religion by too trail tenure &C
around by the post Office on their way te
church. Other people who are we'll grounded
in the faith should not be denied the pleasure
ofseeing the pretty exhibits OF nice window
because some old kilndrled christian has no
love for the beautiful things Of earth, or can
not trust himself with the loveiest creations
Let that window stay open.

The Need of Electric Power.

Now. when the town is prosperlng and
when the outlook for the farm was never
better, 1t occurs to us that some one OF the
many valuable water powers In this vicinity
should be developed for the delivery OF elec.
trio power to the city.
The demand would no doubt be at all times
greater than the supply. In fact, the demand
would increase with the increase OF the sup
ply.
1t might be to the advantage Of the owners
of power that is now going TO waste to look
into t matter. If they are not in position
to improve their property, others might join
them, If fair arrangement could be made.
From notice elsewhere in the Press and
Banner 1t will be seen that Mr.. Link OF this
city, would be glad to hear from the owners
of valuable water powers.

Raising the Rates,

The rates Of insurance on some of the
buildings in town have been very much in'
creased. This is the second time that the
rates have been raised. It seems that the
better we are prepared to fight fire with
water the more insurance we must pay
Some two or three years ago two inch. pipe
with the proper amount Of hose was run in.
to the Press and Banner office. In little
while the rates were raised. Now they are
raised again.
We have much water. and perhaps the
best organized fire company to be found any
where, and our rates Of insurance go higher
and higher.

Impeachinq an Enu!ish Minister.

In England there is a growing de-
mand for the impeachment of Lord
Lansdowne because of his plumbers in
the Boer war. The power of initiative
rests solely with the House of Com
mons, and if that house decides to I'M
dertake it, there is no power-not even
a royal pardon-that could bar pro-
ceedings. The method of procedure
would be as follows: The mover OF
the resolution would be directed to APP
pear at the bar of the House of Lords,
and there impeach the accused Gin
the name of the House of Commons,
and of all the commons of the United
Kingdom. The hearing would take
place as in an ordinary trial, the
House of Lords being the judges, and
the House of Commons, attending in
committee with their chosen spokes-
men, the prosecutors. The defense
might employ counsel and call wit
nesses; the prosecution would have
the right of reply. On the conclusion
of the trial each peer would give his
verdict separately, rising in his place,
laying his right hand on his breast,
and saying Guilty" or mot guilty."
as the case might be, ION my honor"
In case of condemnation by majority
the commons might demand sentence,
or might be satisfied with having OBJ
tanned judgment, or might pardon the
offender. Their decision would be SUI
preme. The earliest instances of i'm
parchment recorded in English history
were those Of Lords Latimer and Ne
will and four other persons, in 1876,
when the country was for little while
under the regency of the Black Prince.
The latest were the famous one of
Warren Hastings 17SS-95) and that of
Lord Melville (1S05). In 1S4S an at
tempt was made to impeach Lord Pal
merston, but failed.

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

Perfection is a glorious prospect but
o sad boast.
Faith in things above gives force
for things below.
Sweet sentimentalities are favorite
cloak for the saddest sins.
A long memory for mercies is often
found with a short one for malice.
1t is easy when you have a seat to
tell the other man how to stand up.
The evil heart gives pain in pleas
ure, the good one pleasure in pain.
There is always room for improve
ment in the life that has no room for
love.
Sins pleasures may be as bright as
the lightning, but they are as brief and
as baneful.
There are people who are too busy
worrying over their stomachs to give
their food chance to digest.
Many a reform has failed because
it put all it's steam into resolutions
and saved none for the rascals.-Ram'
Horn.
