Election Supervisors.

The Board Of Election Supervisors
met Tuesday-all the members pre-
sent.
It was determined to have addi-
tional lines ruled in the registration
books so as to continue their use
and avoid the expense Of TRANSCRIPT

DIR. Dent suggested that judges
OF Election TO act as registrars be

was not prepared to take up the ap-
pointments now, but wished time to
inquire into the conduct, fitness and
qualification, Of the present incum-
bents who il found all right, he was
ia favor OF continuing in Office. DIR.
Dent said he favored reappointing
the old officials now, and that to
defer the appointments, when it had
been announced that they would be
made today, seemed to him TO be
acting in bad faith with the people
and that he favored making the ap-
pointments according TO announce
ment. DR.. Dent further stated
that it was his right to suggest the
Democratic officials. because he was
commissioned AS the represen tativa
of the Democratic party and was the
only member of the Board so CON-
missioned. Mr.. Jones was commits.
stoned as the representative of the
Republican party and had the right
to suggest the Republican officials.
DR.. Johnson was commissioned
merely as Election Supervisor, was
not designated as the representative
of any party and had only the right
OF veto, common to all members of
the Board. AS the Democratic re-
preventative, DR.. Dent insisted upon
bis right to suggest Democratic
officials and stated that his party
was clearly entitled to the same
privilege possessed by the Repub-
lican, party-namely, the right,
through its duly accredited repre-
sentative, TO suggest election offici-
ais to represent it.
DIR. Johnson stated that he was
not prepared to pass upon the points
raised. and after little Hore dis

Does the End Justify the Means?

Mr.. Secretary Shaw's circular OF
April 14th, explaining why he loan
ed the gold OF the United States
Treasury to certain banks in New
York without authority of law, has
called forth from the National City
Observation-Disclosures bank to which
the old custom house in New York
was given some years ago, virtual
ly as q reward for contributions to
the Republican campaign fuad-an
earnest and elaborate defence. Dis
regarding all legal and equitable
considerations, the bank bases its
defence of the Secretary of the Trea-
sury on the ground that I'VE (the
bankers) were saved a strain that
might have been extremely serious. -
In other words, the argument is
that the end justifies the means il
any advantage results TO the banks.
whether the means per SO were law
full or unlawful, good or evil.
MIR. Shaw's excuse for lending
the Governments gold without in
terest to the banks was that 1.-The
money would be Immediately used
in the engagement OF gold abroad
for shipment to the United States;
and the Rockefeller bank says that
it resulted in advantage 70 the fav-
ored banks, and was therefore right
and proper. Mr.. Shaw, backed by
the President. has again and again,
granted special favors OF this kind
10 banks in New York.
The statute which authorizes the
deposit of public funds in national
repositories does not contemplate
the use OF public money in a bank
to save it from a strain that may
be extremely serious" by enabling
it to engage gold, silver, or copper
abroad for shipment to this country.
All IL designs is the safe-keeping of
the money. To use that statute as
an excuse for granting bounties, in
the shape of enormous loans with
out interest, to banks that contribute
TO campaign funds is q criminal
abuse of power which would result
in the Impeachment and punishment
OF the offender il his party were not
indirectly beneficiary Of the abuse.
But the idea now is, that whatever
helps the party in power to gather
corruption funds is right-that the
end justifies the means. There is
no crime that may not be turned into
9 virtue upon the same principle;
yet that is the cardinal principle of
the present administration. The
Presidents scheme of confiscatinr
oyergrown fortunes aud all other
fortunes rests upon the same prin-
ciple. II you can rightfully apply
public money to private uses with
out just compensation, you may with
equal propriety apply all private
property TO public uses with
out any compensation. Shawism
and RoOseveltism meet and mingle
in the definitions of what has been
termed robbery and anarchy.

THE OTHER SIDE
HUMOROUS SIDE LIGHT OF THE
BIG CITY FIRE

There has been so much of horror
and calamity and destruction in the
news colums for the past week, that
the public is well-nigh surfeited, and
will be glad, doubtless, to read some
thing on the other side OF the dark
page Of distressing chronicles. Even
with all the terrors and heart-break-
ing scenes an incidents Of this aw-
ful catastrophe there is much that IS
laughable.
Carl Bach, whose mother lives N
this city, relatives not a few ludicrous
things that came to his notice. He
says that he hastily reached the
street after the shock. and when the
first feeling Of fear had passed off
he could not help laughing outright at
a girl whose attire consisted of a
nightgown that did not reach much
below her knees. with the incongruity
OF a gorgeous Easter bonnet on her
head. He could not restrain hts mer-
riment. Presently the girl began
laughing in return and pointing at
him. He made a nasty examination
and discovered that though he wore
a coat, he had no trousers on, and his
mighty only covered his legs kilt
fashion.
An actor who escaped with much
less clothing than decency demands,
says he felt pretty naked until he saw
pursued, his sole attire consisting of

are you stopping?"

the retort, pointing, We'll, my apart

One man saved his piano and he set
it up in the park under tree. He was
a musician and singer, and the piano
was his all-his every life. In the
midst of pain and misery and suffer
ing the man sat down to his beloved
| instrument and played gay melodies
and sang humorous ballads This man
with nothing between him and the
| poorhouse but his instrument, was a
/ hero Until almost exhausted he
/ kept up the spirits of thousands IN the
range of his voice and his playing, by
making them forget. He never got
such heartfelt applause; never was
an audince so stirred by HIM before
He gave them the best that was in
him, and it was all light and airy and
happy.
There is another little incident
which serves to show the temper OF
