the atera necessity for retrenchment
but faets are always stern thine, to
contemplate and we had as well look
them squarely in the face, Thi. idea
ftsutrgeated by the necessity which
present, itself at thi. particular time
for devising practical means by which
to counteract the effect of the money
depression from which the country is
just now suffering, and we know of no
better place to begin than in the ad-
ministration of publio matters where
vast amount of mismanagement, if
pot downright extravagance is noted,
While it may, perhaos, be uujuat to
attack any particular branch of the
municipal government, it is always
just and proper to particularise when-
ever it is necessary to correct excesses
which border on extravagance. Fol-
lowing this conclusion we would like
to call attention to the unnecessary
expense heaped upon the taxpayer
by the indiscriminate manner in which
people rush into law the moment they
fail to agree with a neighbor upon advanced in the fifties in favor of se
some silly and unimportant matter. Isesiion. Tb author of the bill has
and the point we wish to make is this :
Jn a large number of such cases peo-
pie go to the nearest justice and enter
complaint for some real or imaginary
wrong and are permitted to proceed
with an expensive lawsuit without be-
ing required to make provision for
settling the costs which accrue, and
the net result is that in a large num-1
ber of these petty eases the county is
burdened with the expense of a useless
suit without any recourse but to pay
it, and without recieving any moral or
other benefit. The time is at hand
when these things should stop. Even
if we were enjoying the palmiest hours
of favorable monetery conditions it
would not be doing the people justice
to permit these things, and when the
country is writhing in the throes of
such a money crisis as now prevails,
the most rigid economy should be ob-
served in the administration of all mat-
ters, both publio and private. People
should not be encouraged in the habit
they have acquired of settling personal
differences at the expense of the conn-
ty, and we protest against justices
taking cognizance of any more such
cases unless the complaint is accom-
panied by cash or collateral to cover
costa,
If a ease is meriluous and le-
gitimate the complainant will not bea
tate to secure the county for its sx
pense in the matter, while on the
other hand, if there is a possibility of
having some costs to pay, a disgruntled
complainant will think twice before
he rushes into a useless lawsuit.
Thb administration is dealing rith
the Geary anti-Chinese law in us-
ual wibbly-wabbly style. It started
out with a great flourish of trumpets
a few days ago by announcing that the
law was to be. enforced, When the
new Chinese minister called at the de-
partment of state to file the formal
protest of bis government against en-
forcing the law and to put in a few
words himself in the same line, he was
informed by Secretary Gresham that
the operation should be suspended un-
til congress took some action relating
thereto. Two bills have been intro
duoed in the bouse, both modifying
the law, and one of them is said by
some people to have the appropriation
of the administration, although oth-
ers say that Representative McCreary,
of Kentucky, chairman of the house
commute, on foreign atrairs, is at
work on a new Chinese bill which is
to be backed by the administration.
Very naturally those things are a little
confusing. Representative Geary, of
California, who, acting with the other
senators and representatives from the
Pacific coast, is credited with having
seoured the positive promise, a few
days ago, that the law bearing bis
name should be enforced. Mr. Geary
is very much disgusted, and when
asked what was to be done, said : "I
don't know, and no body else seem, to;
when I go to one department I am
told one thing, and when I reach the
next one the story is radically differ.

It is calculated to make
a man rub
i
his eyes and ask himself whether thi
is 1853 or 1893 when he hears the doin
ocratio arguments advanced in favor
of the bill which has been reported to
the House, providing for the removal
of every vestige of federal control over
congressional and presidential elections
By the way, the title of the bill should
read AA bill to perpetuate democratic
control of the southern stales, and of
the states of New York Massachusettes
I and Illinois, through the hoodlum ele
meat of the cities of New York, Chi-
cago and Boston," for that is the real
object. The arguments advanced in
I favor of the bill are the tame as those
ttaejaudacity to say that the federal
government has no right to "supervise
I the election of the states' represent
tives in congress." Siuce when did
the states have any representative in
congress? If representatives are state
officials, what did the framers of the
constitution mean by this : "Thejtinies,
places, and manner of holding? elec
tions for seuators and representatives
shall be prescribed in each state by the
legislature thereof; but the congress
may at any time, by law make or alter
such regulations," and by this: "Each
house (ef congress) shall be the judge
of the elections, returns, and qualifier
lions of its members"? The senate
has within a short time exercised its
authority under the last qnoted clause
by refusing to seat senators appointed
by the governors of three states, and
it was done, too, by the votes of the
democratic senators, under the direct
order of the president; but when was
the democratic party ever consistent
in anything? The claim that federal
supervision of elections is unconstitu-
tional is a false one and no one knows
it any better than the democrats who
have the effrontery to make it, in the
hope of blinding the ignorant,
"Whom the gods would destroy they
first make mad," is an ancient maxim,
applicable to Mr. Cleveland just now.
He is mad at the obstinate senators
who, in spite of his commands and
entreaties and the influence of the
financial world, brought to bear by the
petitions and the personal presence of
representatives of the boards of trade
in aii the large cities, still refuse to
vote for the Vorhees repeal biU . The
birth of his baby and the good condi-
tion of mother and daughter having
relieved his mind of family cares, he
will now devote bis attention to the
senate. He started in by sending for
Senator Vorhees and giving him a
raking down because the bill had not
been passed, this being the date that
Vorhees had set as the outside limit
for the passage of the bill. The bill
has not passed, and what is more,
there is no immediate prospect of its
being passed. It is now stated that
the great test of endurance between
the friends and opponent, of the bill

to prevent a vote, and their opponent.

CENTS THAT DROP FROM HEAVEN.
A. Utile Boy Told a Story Which Sounded
Very Much Like an Untruth.
Little Richard M. was a Tory hand
some and very pleasant boy. The
house he lived mi, in a Binnll city,
bad no door yard in front of it, but
the sidewalk was wide and cloun and
nicely shaded by olm trees and was
not so much crowded with passers.
So it was a pleasant and safe place
(or littlo Richard to play.
The only objection to it was that
people passing by wore apt to bo so
much pleased with the bright faced
little fellow that thoy would take no
tice of him in a way thut might
make him vainso his wise mother
thought aud quite often a geutle-
mnn passing would (rive him a cent.
Richard's mother thought that this
was not good for him, and so she
very plainly told him not to take
any more oents u they wore offered
nun. He was to thank any such
gentleman for his kindness, but to
toll turn that his mother did not ap
prove of his taking money from any
one.
One day after she had given him
his charge little Richard brought in
a penny. When his mother saw it,
she reproved him for disobeying her.
But he answered, "Mamma, there
did not any man give mo this cent.
God threw it down to me out of
heaven."
This shocked his mother all the
more, for she thought that it must
be a lie. She did not see how her
little boy could possibly think that
ho was telling tho truth. So she re-
provod him vory solemuly and tried
hard to make hint see how wicked
ho had been and to confess his sin
But tho littlo follow stuck to it, and
said over and over again: "There
was not any man there. God did
throw the cent down to me from
heaven."
His mother was greatly distressed
and kept trying to get Richard to
confess his bin aud ask forgiveness.
If she could not got him to do this.
she thought she must punish him.
But before she did so she talked with
a young man who studied and slept
In the front room on tho second floor
of her house. . He was able and glad
to explain the strange thing. Ho
did not know that Richard had been
forbidden to take such gifts, and one
day sitting at his front window,
when the little boy was playing be
low, he tossed a cent down to him
without putting his own head in
sight The cent dropped and jingled
ou the pavement Richard looked
up and around and saw no person,
and he honestly believed what ho
told his niothor.
No doubt aho was very thankful
to bo thus saved from doing cruel
wrong to her dear, truthful boy.
The mothers who read this will pray
God to keep them from doing such a
wrong to their children. But, chil
dren, dreadful as it would hnvo been
for little Richard to be punished for ly
ing, when ho had told the real honest
truth, it would havo been even more
dreadful if ho had told a lie and do
ceived his mother. Do you not think

A Saltan's Kind Ileply.
The sultan of Morocco is so often
rude and unmannerly to strangers
that I tako pleasure in recording hero
the kindly way in which he received
the request of a German prince who
some years ago came to Tangier for
his health. He was suffering from
rheumatism and brought with him
his equipages. The first day he at
tempted to drive up and down the
Malabar beach he was stopped by the
soldiers ana forbidden to drive any
farther again in the city. He im
mediately appealed to the sultan.
who wrote back the following an
swer and had it dispatched from Fez
to Tangier by a particularly s wi f t cou
rier: Yes, he would be delighted to
have this stranger prince drive about
his city of Tangier, and he gave him
permission so to do, but with one
condition. Every time he drove
abroad he would please take the
wheels off his carriage, otherwise bo
might run over and seriously hurt
some of the little children in the

Edwin Booth's Generosity.
The late Edwin Booth's unostenta
tious generosity was exemplified in a
characteristic way when the birth
day of his physician came around.
This physician, in addition to having
been unremitting in bis attention to
the tragedian's physical condition.
was bis friend. At a little supper
given in honor of the occasion a mag-
nincent puncn bowl was brought in
and set before the doctor. He read
the inscription, which stated the name
of the donor, and was about to thank
Mr. Booth, when the latter quietly
suggested mat tne cover be taken off.
It was done, and a check for $1,500
was found inside.
"That's to make the punch with,"
said Mr. Booth, with a smile.
The punch bowl had cost fl,200.

The great advantage of the truth
is that you didn't make it, and so are
