MRS. F.. J. PADDOCK, EDITOR.

From New York, again, comes this
significant declaration, in Bonfort's
Wine and Spirit Circular: eff there
is n thing that seems settled beyond
question, it is that the retail liquor
trade of this country must either mend
its ways materially or be prohibited
in all places save the business or
tenderloin precincts OF u large
cities"
Referring to the last statement quot
to say: "The saloon as the center
and inspir alton of bad politics, bad
government, disorder, poverty, and
sin has now beer schedule for ex-
termination not by fanatics and
theorists alone, but by practical and
clear-beaded workers along lines Of
public welfare, who will hardly cease
before that evil institution, as it is
known to-day, shall have been laid to
rest.n
It IL doubtful whether the American
saloon q "msnd its ways material
ly." Every attempt in this direction
has failed. There Is no mending an
institution that is inherently bad.
The only good thing to do with it is
to destroy it.. Every time . saloon is
closed up the moral tone Of the COM
munity improves. It is the duty.
therefore, of every citizen who has the
welfare of the community at heart to
do all in his power to put out OF
business the institution that breeds
evil. When these citizens do their
duty the saloon will be obliterated.

upon the scene across the street, he
called The gentleman up. In a few

More than 10000 employees are now

Its business with less than one-fourth
OF that number, the inference is that

notable increase is in the forestry
bureau, which now has 3,753 employees.
as against scarcely more than a dozen
eleven years ago. In view of the
pressing necessity for conserving our
forest resources and the vast terri
tory that must be covered, few will
contend that this service is not worth
all that it costs.
The bureau of animal industry has
increased from less than 1000 en-
ployes to 1852. This has been justi-
fed by the elaborate system of meat
inspection and extensive researches
which have helped to check contagious
diseases among animals.
Scope of the bureaus of chemistry
and plant industry has been tremend-
ously broadened, with corresponding
increases in the number of people en-
ployed. In both cases, however, re-
suits of their work have been of great
value.
If all other departments of the gov
eminent were able to show as good re-
suits for their increased cost there
would be little reason for serious crit
icism.-Chicago Journal
