MERIT MAYORS AND MARsHALs.

II I
A mayor with a backbone to do his
duty and enorce the laws is a valu-
able public asset in any community.
A city marshal with brain eonugh to
recognize an infraction of law when
he sees it and with sufficient courage
to arrest the law-breaker is also
entitled to the plaudits of the people
he is chosen to serve. Good public
officials should be commended and
retained. Poor ones should be dis
pensed with. They make their own
records and they should be Judged by
them. That is the essence of civil
service regulations and the principle
is as applicable to a small city as to
the nation.

Honest Religion.

THE UniVersaist Leader.l
1--WE are blessed or afflicted with
some very old fashioned notions of
plain, every day honesty and we have
IL notion, too, that the world has a
right to expect the church and its
ministry to exemplify nothing short OF
plain and simple honesty. We are
aware of the disturbance it would
make In the community If a reputable
man should stand as republican,
preach republican doctrine, and sup
port republican institutions. and then
on lection day, go secretly and vote
the democratic ticket; or If he should
have become imbued with democratic
doctrines and should stay in the re-
publican party and work In every way
to defeat its ends, standing before the
world as republican, yet working for,
democratic success. Put it any way
you will, we face the fact that even
politics requires integrity, honesty,
straig fair dealing.
Ought we not to expect as much from
religion.
Let every honest man honor DR..
Carter Every honest man must hold
the Presbyterian church in larger re-
spect IL, 1t having set up standard,
it holds men to that standard. Either
do not set up the standard or having
set it up, honor it. The church can
never be an influence for honesty I'M
til it is honest. We hold that DR.. Car
ter has done what every honorable man
should do and would do. We hold that
the Presbyterian church should either
lower it's standards or dismiss him.
and still further that the world will
have n higher respect for both when
Il knows what both stand for"
