~\Ve believe that public opinion in Rensselaer demands that our town council make some provision ugaiiist fire, and tlnit the sooner it is done the better pleased will our people be. It is probable that the State Legislature will make some radical changes iu the system of paying comity and state officers and m the tenure of some of the offices. A mimber of bills having that purpose have already been introduqted and ordered to the third reading. One of these, : which strikes ns quite favorably, requires all official fees; taken in by county and state officers, to be turned over to the proper treasuries, fixes the salaries of all the state officers (and at fair, but not extravagant ligutes) and gives to County Coniitlissioners the right to fix the salaries of county officers. A proposition to make the Term of office ot County Treasurer hud County Sheriff four years, instead of two as at present, and uniform in length with the other county offices, looks like a very sensible move, and is meeting with fi good deal of favor. The work of the dynamiters in London has so far -resulted- in plenty of scare and but little real injury, although the last explosions, those of Saturday, were much more destructive than any which have preceded them, and give just cause for alarm in contemplating what may happen when these" hitman devils have, by experience, more fully mastered their villainous vocation. In the purlieus of every great city in the world, may be found swarms of human vermin, more utterly and irteclaimabiy barbarous and destructive than were the liordes of Attila, “The Scourge of God”. The invention of dynamite and other powerful explosives has put into the bauds of these enemies of

all order, a weapon of destruction, the possible results of which iriay well niake civilization tremble. The report of Dr. Washburn, Secretary of the County Board of Health, is an interesting arid valuable paper, worthy of careful study. Among other remarkable facts shown by the report, are that the number of births in the county, for the last three years, exceed the deaths by about four fold. Also that the death rate in the county is most unusually low, being not more than five to 1000.' in population!. Such a death rate if kept up, would give to Jasperites an average life period of 200 yeais, and inake the most of us all solid for seeing Uncle Samuel’s second Centennial. Our readers are mildly cautioned, however, not to Jiuild their hopes to positively on such an extended lease of life arid thereby defer too long the hour of their repentance, —this remark is especially applicable to delinquent subscribers and men who cut their cordwood only three feet long. It is probable, or rather certain, that some deaths in the coiirity have not been reported; these,- Dr. Washburn thinks, would not raise the death fate above 7 in 1000 population. This Would give an average life period of a little more than 142 years, —and the best interests of Jasper county w r ould not suffer irreparable loss if some of her citizens even sap of reaching that age. Another remarkable fact, and to which the report gives considerable pronpinence, is that flaring the j'ear 1884, the dread tljsease, consumption, whieh carlies off such large numbers of victims in most parts of the country, mused but three deaths in Jasper

That Bad Man-Price.

Wb have received from Highmore, Dakota, a, copy of the last issue of the “Vox Popuh” of that town. The name of the editor which embellishes its columns, is none other “"Than that of our former County Clerk, now Judge of Probate in Hyde cojunty, C. H. Price. Like the old man’s oxen, .the paper “Is little, but oh Charley’s ear marks all over it. , Below is a sample paragraph, from the last number of the Vox: Dr. Mary Walker turns up her nose and says that she will ■•wear pants or nothing. ’ That’s light, dear Mary, and we don't blame you in the least. When we lived in the States we wore pants ourselves, and can testify that they beat nothing all to thunder, though the basement, ot them was adorned with a red flannel pa ch as large as a mortgage on a quarter section. In the climate where you live, Mary, such apparel is necessary t > keep you from freezing, but if you would come to the orange belt of Dakota you can discard them and save expense, for the weather here is so delightful you - woo hi experience ho trouble, if you were clad in -nothin;-* but a pair o- . socks and’- a standing collar. Now, Miry, if any bold, bid man tells you that we have nine months winter and three months lutein the fall, give Him to understand that a man by the name of Pants, froil’ Pant-mile, Pants county, Dakota, has informed you that such is hot the case and that you rely implicitly upon; his statement.

The weather, whiclr let tip a little Friday and Saturday, got down to business again by Sunday afternoon. On Monday morning the thermometer showed 14 degrees below zero On Wednesday morning it was down to about 25 or BO below’. Vast quantities of snow have fallen, anil road and railroads have been badly blockaded. A But few men . have advanced more rapidly in the ministry than Elder CiMel. H-e never misses an appointment if tlie place can be reached. One time he walked from Reynolds to Monticello, iu the rain in order to fill ills appointment on the next day. On.ce he was stranded at Remington. No team could be had, the lpilds were too rough, the entire distance to Rensselaer was walked, where he arrived in good shape.—OxfordTribune.
