CITIZENS, DO YOUR DUTY. During the daik days of the rebellion when the dissolution of the anion seemed almost unavoidable and the homes of the nation were -threatened with the devastation of war, a million men answered the call to arms. They laid aside all flelJSsh considerations They sacrificed business, domestic life personal comfort, they went to the front, they overthrew the enemy, rescued their country from danger and restored it to peaceful prosperity. That was the exi gency of war and grandly was it met and conquered. But peace also has its exi fancies. No outside armk8 threaten the safety of our cities, but from within our own confines come foes as dangerous to the common welfare as are the fire and the sword. No national govern ment, however wisely administered, can prevent the evil effects of a corrupt mu nicipal government. The majority of the large cities have fallen into the hands of the enemy, a shrewd, unprincipled and vicious element which exists at all points. In no city are such men in the majority. They have com© into power simply because the honest, capable busi ness men have been so engrossed in their own affaire that they have allowed those of the municipality to go by default, Tills "gang" have no business of their own, they live by their wits and they have found politics a remunerative field They manipulate the wires with as mtich control as the operator at the telephone or telegraph. The ramifications of our municipal system are beyond the concept tion of the uninitiated. The officials work through and for each other in way that would bewilder and astound an honest, straightforward citizen, and our city government has becomo a network of intrigue and deception, defying the law and sacrificing the interests of the people for personal promotion and finan cial gain.

This state of affairs has been a matter of slow and insidious growth. When treated by the press it has been done with such a political bias that people lost sight of the truth because of the bitterness and animosity which inspired it But the evil has now assumed such proportions that the whole community

IB

is overwhelmed with letters

and personal appeals. The time lor revolution Is at hand. This can be accomplished in but one way and that is by the complete overthrow of the *"gangM who have had the city by the throat for a number of years, depleting the treasury, plunging us into debt, defying the statutes and uty laws, trampling under foot morality and decency, making us a by word and a reproach throughout the state. In the face of this emergency can any reputable business man refuse to do his duty? Bare he refuse to do it? Shall the committees entrusted with the maW ing of the tickets (or th«t spring elections, declare that they can not find represen tativo men who will consent to fill the offices? If on the "morning after the primaries we are confronted with tickets which mean simply a repetition of the present regime, are yon willing to be held responsible? Is there a capable, enterprising. respectable citixen in Terre Haute who will refuse to give a small |Krtion of his time and ability lor the n«xt two years for the salvation of the dly? This a most critfcal period in onr affairs. If we are to build up our credit, to bring in manufactures, to replenish oar treasury, to redeem onr reputation, to pay off onr debts, it we are to emerge from onr present financial depression into a state of prosperity, w« mnst have first class business men in our city council. Let no man shirk this imperative duty. If vou aire needed, respond to the call.

Bat now when he sees the latter reduced to eight, with two-thirds of every day at their disposal, he will 'throw down the shovel and the hoe and come to town.

There has been great complaint for a number of years that it was impossible to secure domestic service because the girls had gone into factories where they ha/1 fewer hours of work- If this were the case when they had to labor ten hours a day in the latter, how more desirable will such positions be when the law takes effect reducing the hours to eight. It will then be almost impossible to secure house bold help who practically are employed from six in the morning until seven at night Even at better wsges girls will not work thirteen hours when they can secure a position requiring only eight. Hie operating of the eight hour law will be joyfully received by those who reap the benefits but it will cause widespread dissatisfaction and discontent among those who are shut out from its privileges.

TrfB News gets tired of granting interviews to people who have some grievance to air and wish to do it through the columns of this paper and yet are not willing to back their statements if necessary. They want The News to make a fight which they are too cowardly to make themselves and yet want a promise th&t they shall not be called as witnesses in the case, The News has no time to devote to personal grievances. If our readers have some charge to make against city officials and are ready with the proof of their statements and are willing to assume their share of the responsibility, we will see that they get justice. Otherwise we do not wish to consume time in discussing such matters.

THE charge made by the free trade editor of the Gazette, that Senator Blair is crazy and ought to have been locked up in an asylum long ago, proves conclusively what the friends of that writer have feared for along time, that he himself had gone stark, staring mod on the tariff question. It is a peculiarity of insane people that they think everybody is crszy but themselves, as this last attack of the Gazette plainly indicates.

A I'akw dispatch states that Jules Renaud, a young artist, has just killed himself because Amelie Rives jilted him. lie followed her to Algiers and renewed bis courtship but as Amelie has one husband she could do nothing for him in the matrimonial line and so he committed suicide, It is said that Amelie is devoting herself to art but this lost report looks very much as if she was about to bring out another book.

People everywhere may as well understand at the start that every question asked by the census man must be an swered. It is the United States govern ment that asks the question. Moreover, the answere must be the truth, the whole truth, etc.. Thore is a severe penalty for misleading a census enumerator or telling him a lie.

latent In Hosiery.

An American woman devotes probably more thought to the question of hosiery than do the women of other nations. To her mind it is quite as essential ^aat there should lie perfect harmony of tint between a costume and the stockings worn by the same person as between any other two parts of the toilet But in ute of several attempts to displace tbe ack silk stocking it still remains the favorite foot covering. The one controlling reason doubtless is that it reduces the apparent sixa of the foot and gives the ankle around and tapering look, and in addition to this sets off the snowy whiteness of the underskirt. Stockings embroidered with flowers in bright colors are altogether too pronounced forordm ary wear, and give to the feet of the wearer an air or overdress always to be avoided. The world is very quick to notice a small and shapely foot and often resenta the attempt of the owner to draw attention to it

ALICE'S FORTUNE.

"Sister Theodosia," said a feeble voice from the bed. The Sister of Charity, a mild faced woman of middle age, answered the sum' mons of the dying man, and approached the bedside,

The dying man was Hector Moritz, a carpenter, who bad fallen from a house .which he was building, a few days before, and so injured himself that he could not recover. He lived just outside the village of St. Barbe, with his little girl, Alice, now 7 years old. His wife had died three years before, but Alice, child as she was, could make coffee and cook an omelet as skillfully as if she were twice as old, and had acted as her fathers little housekeeper. So it happened that, being alone, an unusual affection bad sprung up between Alice and her father.

The Sister of Charity approached the bedside. The sick man's face expressed anxiety, and his eye turned from the nurse to his little girl, who was pale and Xrief stricken, yet had self-control enough not to betray her emotion lest it should distress her father in his last moments, "What can I do for you, M. Moritz?'' asked Sister Theodosia, in a gentle voice.

His glance wandered to his little girl once more. "Alice," he gasped, "provided for." "Do you mean that you wish Alice provided forV asked the sister, striving to interpret his broken words. "Already provided for—money there," and he pointed vaguely downwards. "Poor man! He is wandering in mind," thought the sister—for he was pointing to the floor but she thought it best to appear to have understood him. "Yes," she said gently, "have no anxiety."

He looked at her wistfully, and then, seeming to think lie was understood, he fell back upon the pillow from w.hich he had lifted his head, and a moment after expired.

When Alice realized that her father was really dead she gave way to excessive grief—so excessive that it soon wore itself out, leaving her pale and sorrow ful. Sister Theodosia took her into her lap and pressed her head against her bosom in sad compassion, for little Alice was now without father or mother.

In due time Hector Moritz was buried, and the next thing to be considered was, how should Alice be disposed of?

Hector Moritz left two near relatives^ both cousins. One of these was a thriving tradesman in the next town, a man who had prospered, partly through his selfishness, which was excessive. The other, also residing in the next town, wo9 a poor shoemaker with a large family, who found it hard enough to make both ends meet, but was, withal, kind and cheerful, beloved by his children, for whom he could do so little, and popular in the village.

These two cousins met at ihe funeral of Hector Moritz. "I suppose Hector died poor," said M. Ponchard, the tradesman, a little uneaaily. "This house is all he owned, so far as I know,** said the notary, "and it is mortgaged for nearly its value." "Humph! that is bad for the child," said M, Ponchard. "I suppose you will take her home, M. PonchardF' said the notary, bluntly. "We all know that you area prosperous man." pfllplIS

The tradesman drew back, "If I am prosperous," he said, "I have had to work for my money. It is all I can do to provide for my own family 1 can't support other people's children." "Then you won't do anything for the child?" "I didnTsay ttiat. I'll give her#twen-ty-fiye—nay, lifty—francs. That's all I ought to do." "And how long will fifty francs support her?" said the notary, disdainfully, for he detested the meanness of the rich tradesman.

That is not my affair. She need not starve She can go to the almshouse," Who speaks of the almshouse?" spoke up M. Corbet the poor shoemaker. "M, Ponchard suggests that Alice go to the almshouse," said the notary. "Not while I have a home to offer her," said the poor cousin warmly.

But M. Corbet" said the notary, "you are poor. Can you afford, with your many children, to undertake an additional burden?"

I never look on them as burdens— they are my joy and comfort," said M. Corbet. "I can't give Alice a luxurious home, but such asl have she Is welcome to. I am sure the good God will sot let nte siarte if I undertake the care of my little orphan cousin."

He's a fooir thought M. Ponchard contemptooosly. "He will always be tni~ rably poor." tint the notary sped his hand, and said: "M. Corbet I respect yoa. If yoa are trw money, you are rich in a good hmrt and that is the best kind of riches." 5K no opposition being made, the little Alt went home with the poor shoemaker. As for the cottage, that was left in the bands of the notary to sell, is already intimated, there was a mortgage upon it to newly it* full value, so that it was not likely to bring much 0*er. What Utile there should ha would, of course, |»to Alice.

income, had nothing saved Up for "tbe rainy day which had come upon him, and so the family were soon in a sad strait

The notary beard of it and was stirred with compassion.. "If only Alice had something," he said to Sister Theodosia, whom he met one day at a sick bed for the good Sister of Charity spent her time in tending the sick without compensation, "If only Alice had some small property she might come to the relief of her poor relation." "And has she notf asked Sister Theodosia. "Nothing that I know of beyond the house, and upon that there is a mortgage to nearly Its full value." "But her father upon his deathbed told me that she was provided for." "Did he, indeed?" asked the notary, surprised. "Did he say anything more?' "No, he was unable to but he pointed to the floor. I am afraid he was out of his head and meant nothing." "Stop! I have an idea," said the notary suddenly. "Can you leave for few minutes and go with me to the cottage?" "Yes, I can be spared for half an hour," said Sister Theodosia.

Together they went to the coctage, which -chanced to be close by. "Now," said the notary, when they were once inside, "to what pari of the floor did M. Moritz point? Can you remember?" "There," said the sister. "Very well we will soon see whether there is anything in my idea."

The notary procured a hatchet, and succeeded after a time in raising a plank of the floor, Sister TheodosiaJpoking on meanwhile, with surprise/*

But her surprise was increased when, on the plank being raised, a box was discovered underneath. "Help me lift it," said the notary*

With the aid of the hatchet he removed the cover of the box. and the two uttered an exclamation of surprise when underneath they found a large collection of gold coins. On the top was placed a sheet of note paper, on which were written these words, in the handwriting of the deceased:

The gold in this box represents the savings of many years. It is for my daughter, Alice. For her sake I have lived frugally, and I hope it may save her from want when 1 am gone.

HECTOR MOAITZ.

How much is there?' asked Sister Theodosia. There are two' hundred "and fifty napoleons. These make five thousand francs. Truly, M. Moritz must have been frugal to save so much."

Then little Alice is an hdrg&s," said Sister Theodosia. "It is as you say." "I am very glad. Now she can pay her board to that poor M. Corbet, and he will lose nothing by his kindness." •'I will go to-night and tell him."

The poor shoemaker was still sick, and his money had wholly given out, so that the family had had no supper. "I am sorry yoj^are sick, my friend," said the notary. *.' A

Yes," said the poor shoemaker, sighing "it is unfortunate." "I think you were not wise iu taking an additional burden when you had so many children already." "I am not sorry. Alice is always welcome to all that we can give her." "Then you are not sorry you have taken her?" "No but I aM S&ri-y I fell sick. The poor child has had no supper." ,.,t "Nor any of you, I suppose?' "Nor any of us." r'-f' "M. Corbet, you are'a good man and truly charitable. But I have good news for you."

Good news? Well, it could never oome at abetter time." "You thought Alice was poor.1 ?,

I'And is she not?* IU "On the contrary, she is an heiress," J''What do you mean?' ,(Her father left 5,000 francs for her fortune." "Is that true?' asked the shoemaker and his wife, bewildered. "Yes and therefore it is* Only fitting that she should pay her board. How long has she been here?' "Four months." "Seventeen weeks. Nowf"& her father's executor, I am going to allow you eight francs a week and you shall ui&der take to provide her with a home and clothing. For seventeen weeks, then, that she has been here I owe you 126 francs, I pay it to you at once."

But it is too much," said M. Corbet, surveying the gold with stupefaction, for he had never seen as much before. "It is right." "We are saved!" said his wife thankfully. "I will go out and buy some bread. Children, you shall have some supper."

At this there was a shout of joy from the children, and tears of gratitude flowed down the cheeks of the poor shoemaker, who pointed to Alice, and said: "She has brought me good fortune,*

Before the money was half expended the shoemaker had recovered, and went to work again. The eight francs a week hw Jreceived for Alice proved a great help to him, small as it may seem to my readera, and enabled him to afford more comforts than before.

Ftom that time M. Corbet prospered, and was even able to save up money, and all through his unselfish kindness to the little Alice, through whom he believes good fortune has oome to him and his.— Horatio Alger, Jr., in Yankee Blade

SCROFULA.

One of the most dangerous and unpleasant evidences of the existence of hereditary scrofula is glandular swellings and painful ulcers which accompany it and render life a burden! to the sufferer and to those about him. Sore eyes, scabs on the head, pimples on the face, salt rheum, and the like, are all caused by impure blood. There is but one way to banish these offensive symptoms, and that is by the use of tried and trusted remedies to strike at the root of the trouble. Dr. Cobb's Vegetable Compound, known to the world by its famous corn-cob trademark, cleanses the skin by first cleansing the blood. It brings new life to the overworked and nervous victim, and, being purely vegetable, leaves no ill effects.
