this is admitted by Mr.. Charles Francis

fought against invasion! They did not
fight as rebels and revolutiontsts trying
to overthrow tho Federal government but

the question of defense.

Public Servants.

Captain George Alnslto, OF the BOARD
of Police Commissioners, declares that ne
has several times felt very much ltke
rosigning because Of public criticism. IT
Is the most discouraging thing IN the
world" says he. 'for q servant, public
or private, never to receive O word OF en-
co,1ragement or sympathy, but only GEM
eral criticism and condemnation for what
he has done. 1t takes his heart out OF
the work and mako him lose interest IN
It. It Is the one sure way utterly to de-
stroy his usefulness Criticism has its
uses, and no man can escape it. be he as
chnste as snow and as pure as ice. This
] is especially true OF public officials. me
man who accepts public office, whether
It be an office Of cmolument or merely
an office OF honor, cannot reasonably
hope to please the entire public and
the only course for him to pursue Is to
discharge his duty faithfully and con-
soientiously MS he understands 1T; to do
the very best that he can and leave the
results to take care of themselves. When
he is criticised he should have a fair and
frank reckoning with himself and de-
teYnine whether or not tho criticism be
just. If so. It should be a spur to great
er endeavor; If not, he can well afford
to pass 1t by. knowing that sooner or
later his vindication will come
but Captain Ainsie is right in saying
that it Is discouraging for a servant. pub
lie or private, never to receive q word OF
praise or good cheer. and that 1t is bad
policy for employers, whether they be
individuals or the general public. TO with
4 hold such words when they are deserved.
The employer who pursues such harsh
and selfish policy toward his employees
will not get the best service, which Is
the free will service. the service of at
fectionate interest
But let us say for the comfort Of Cap
tain AInslie and all other faithful off,
dals that while the public is critical. 1t
is nlso In the main and in the long run
just and apprcciative. A man cannot
always Judge by the harsh criticisms
which he hears Of the true estimate of
the public concarhing him. He is more
apt to hear the -trticisms than the en-
comaums and Is apt to attach too much
Importance to them. He may be sure,
however, that II he conducts himself well,
II he gives faithful, efficient and af-
fecdonate service. the general public will
take note OF 1t, and bestow credit, IL not
open praise. where 1t is duo Good work
Is never wasted, and sooner or later good
pubic service Will be recognized. We
hope that Captain Ainslie and Alderman
Blair and all other public mon who arc
serving the city without pay and with
no selfish end In view, will not grow
weary in we'll doing. Their labor will
not be in vain. The public understands.
And besides all that, there is comfort to
every sincere man in knowing within him
eelf that he is discharging his civic duties,
and that he is doing something as lie
passes for tho good of humanity In all
such conduct there Is ample reward. pub

Can the purchaser recover anything FOL
lost time or dana ges?
You can answer under s.. and M.
J. L. WALROND.
The answer to your question depends
upon the details Of the agreement tc
purchase tile mill. Tor instance, II the
seller agreed to put up the mill in rull'
ming order, say. In thirty days. and falls
to do so, then the purchaser could re-
cover from him any damage he may have
sustained But from the facts as give,
by you. It is impossible to say whether
any damages could be recovered. We
would have 10 know more about the cir
cun,stances before we could give an intel
gligent opinion.
