GOVERNOR DEkEEN.

As the newly elected Governor enters
upon the broader field of public duty
than that which he so We'll filled in the
past, the people of Illinois are filled
with confidence that he will be worthy
of the honor and fully capable of sus-
tanning the responsibility that has
been placed upon him.
Mr.. Deneen takes Office as the rep
resentatlye OF all the people. lie was
the nominee of great party, but he
was elected by the people. The vote
given Mr.. Deneen in the County OF
Cook was one that he may we'll feel
proud Of. An analysis Of II shows that
IL was not confined to the voters OF
the Republican party. Democrats unit
ed with Republicans In doing honor
TO man who showed himself in Oner-
Gus and responsible office 10 be the
faithful servant Of the people. They
have made no mistake.
1t is the belief of all who know
Charles :. Deneen and his honorable
career as a citizen and public Off
cial, that he will give the State of ILL.,
nOis one of the best administrations
1t has ever enjoyed.

MOURNING SYMBOLS AND WHA1
THEY MEAN.

The customs of mourning as prac.
ticed in various parts of the world
seem at first sight to have little rcla-
ton with each other, or with the in
ward grief which they are supposed
to typify. Yet by the exercise of a
little patience, many resemblances may
be discovered among them. The wild
owls cap, for example. dates back to
the days of ancient Egypt. Egyptian
men shaved the beard ana the head us
token of mourning. The women,
instead of cutting Off the hair. con.

4 FEW IHOU0HIS ABOUT RUSSiA.

People who do not mage it clear
~ known that they desire greater
degree of liberty, do not get it in Rus
sia or in any other country. If it had
not been for the appeals of zemstvos
and town councils the Car would not
have been moved to take the measures
which he says In his ukase are needed
TO strengthen civic and public life. The
men who made the appeals can bear
with equanimity the Cars condem-
nation of their activity when they con-
template the results of their agitation
Although ordered peremptorily to re-
frain from further agitation, they may
not obey. The Car promises an en-
tension OF local self government. That
Il the primary education in government
which the Russians, greatly need. The
men who have learned to manage the
local affairs of Il municipality or IL
province are likely to be competent to
take part In legislatlng for an empire.

will draw from perusal of the Cars
ukase Is that he Is granting little to

by limitations and qualifications which
make them Of little value, and that
the Russian government remains about

reactiOnaries in Russia are displeased
because the Car has done so much.
They would rather that he had mega.
lived every prayer for reform. and had
proclaimed that improvement Is impos.
sible. On the other hand. the liberals
though thankful for what they have

The remarkable operations OF Cassie

have been promptly dismissed as pre-.

more prone than other men to stray
from the straight and narrow way.
Maybe there Is envy mixed up In 1t.
Maybe there Is an instructive feeling In
the carnal mind Of the majority that
success Is not separable from libertin-
ism. Anyway, that which, told about
an ordinary person, would be dismissed
as malicious or interested fiction Is
greedily accepted when 1t is linked

WORE JUDGES FOR cook COUNTY.

We return to the subject Of the lack
Of numbers In the judiciary Of Cook
County. because we believe the time
TO be opportune. and It Is always well
to keep good cause IN mind. We feel
assured that the Cook County dclega-
ton In the state Legislature will not
fail to support any measure for an in
crease in the local judiciary, ana we
believe that proper presentation of
the facts, including. of course. the con-
gested condition of the court dockets,
will enlist the support of legislators
from every part of the State.

THE FORMIDABLE FLEET
Warships to Assemble Here to
Train Midshipmen.

A formidable fleet of nine warships
will assemble at the at Naval
Academy within the next few weeks,
and will probably be the largest fleet
that has ever been assigned TO pe1ma-
nent duty here.
The old frigate Hartford, Admiral
Farragut's flagship at the battle of
Mobile bay, and the cruiser New
ark, have both been ordered TO proceed
here for use in the instruction of the
nidshipmen, and it is expected that
they will arrive some time next month.
With their arrival herewith be nine
vessels of size stationed at the Acad
envy The ships already here are the
monitor Terror, the cruiser Atlanta,
which is temporarily at Norfolk for
repairs, the practice cruiser Chesa-
peake, the torpedo boat destroyer Law
renee, the torpedo boat Talbot and
the gunboats Alvarado and Sandoval,
two of the vessels that were captured
from Spain during the late war. Be-
sides these there is the government tug
Standish and the submarine torpedo
boat Holland All of these boats.
with the exception of the Standish,
are used for the drills of the midship-
men in either seamanship, ordnance
or exercises in the firing of torpedoes
and fleet maneuvers.
The Hartford and the Newark will
also be assigned TO this duty, aud it
is probable that all of them, with the
exception of the Talbot and the Hol-
land, will be used to take the mid

Joshua Linthicum Injured

Painful ana rather serious injuries
were received this morning at the
COLCHESTER steamboat landing by Mr.
Joshua Linthicum, Jr. 1t was feared
for some time that his injuries were
of far mere serious nature than they
were eventually found to be. Mr..
Linthicum was engaged in assisting
in the unloading Of fertilizer on a
wagon and just as ne was wheeling a
truck loaded with fertilizer onto the
wagon from the platform, the horse
moved forward and Mr.. Linthicum,
together with the truck aud its load
was precipitated to the ground. he
was hurled back against the platform,
striking his back against a stringer.
He was assisted to the Office and after
it had been found that no bones were
broken he was taken to his home.
