That Astoria is supplied with four brand new municipal clubs, deroted, primarily, to the better equipment, and adornment, of the city with those thing ha needs most, in a material sense, is a mattter of congratulation because . v j i i wer are nuna. u. 8w Fifln ,venue banded together for the common ad-teriaj for a jrwrd Shaw. rantage, and such an agency should ac- It matter little at th present time what Xew Yorker wrote 'iWutiful Sikiw"! the serious question is, where did he get his inspiration I However, the real quest ion is, how many White IIou Democrate will there be when a railroad rata bill ia voted upon lit the Senate! The advertisedinadvem- Imurree uoceed aa little in Congresa aa else where. It is the Gillespie and not the DakeU'a who teem to get there. Tipping is bad enough, but to know that one's tip go to a lobby fund to defeat antf tipping bill is a little too much, even in Ohio. Poultney Bigrlow is now bi tting $1000 he's right. When it come to a question of money or fart, Mr. Itigelow should be careful of hi only remaining poe s ion. o With the Hottentot war still in full blast, and with threat of a general up rising in the Cameroon, the Cernian course of colonial empire in Africa is not a path of pleasantness and peace. The discovery of a new comet Satire lay morning wa th result, announce the Hohart College olervatory, of sweeping the northeastern heaven with a large telescope.

On the otner hand, aa k famine would not depend la the least on whether Mr. John Mil VI think it U warm enotigh or not. . If they're married when they're mar ried, tlien twere well they married quickly. Only another chapter In rapid transit. And that may be the reason why the event escaped the bride'a no complish much, both in the initiatory, a well as the actual, executive, signifi cance of their b.-ing; but there is the ever-present danger that, by iniduou methods and Imperceptible gradation. they will be transformed into political channels through which interested par ties will operate to the undoing of more than these' clubs could ever hope to achieve. Such a transposition must be fought to a fini-h whenever it shows signs of life and the man who first puts down such a tendency will be the first and best fri.'nd of the town he is living in and serving. It should be the disin terested duty of every citizen to guard against such an invasion, and the chance to perform such ' an obligation may not be so far off as some suppose. The Ruvtian revolutionist know how to apologize st least. Having killed Colonel Liorki by mistake for Colonel Prowrorski, they promptly apologised and. like the western lynchers who strung up the "wrong man, acknowledged that the joke was on them, and, more over, promised to rectify the blunJer. A Kentucky lad of fourteen bs just been committed to an insane asylum laboring under the delusion that he is a married man with a large family. We dont recall like commitments of mar ried men who forget that they liave wives and dependent progeny and get gay accordingly. Old maids would be scare and hard to ' find, Could they be made to see.

The fact that the people do not want the ctiarter-eoinmiion named until after the June election, is now pretty generally known, and the wisdom of such a conclii-ion, if not patent just at this moment, will I obvious enough in July. There is no law governing the formation of a charter-body and the authority for such an enterprise mutt emanate directly from the people them selves. The people, as a rule, have been sato-ficd to permit such matter to be launched bv their local representative, official, and commercial, and it ha be- tJo eminent figures show that 28,000 com? the rule of the day, everywhere, J pen-ioners of the Civil War have died to look to the Councils, and Chambers within the lat six .month.

Hut it i sad to see th old boys in blue dropping out so fast. 0 matters; and, adding the Improvement Clubs, in the cae of Astora, there is no reasonable ground fcr prejudice or pro test, if these thr o nrpr.i?, popular ele ments, shall tnke on the responsibility of providing for th new' commission ; but if any leaser representative num ber, or cliis., of individuals "lie II at tempt to form, or steer, the movein. nt. the quickest and most potent remedy at hand, is an instant ami direct peal to the PKOI'Ui.
