However, the msm meeting primary was better than the old way. The tee bus been broken aud there are those who expect to see the Third ward order '* Democratic or white primary for the next e action. The PI rat ward has had the primary plan In vogue for some time and seems to have been bemefltted In every way therefrom. They were humiliated that they did not put on a primary last year, for, aa a result of the sbeence of s primary, things were done that will never he permitted there again while there Is s Isw.

It discusses the new city code and the laws which have b"en suggested-rather change* of laws which have been suggested. Those changes stand on their worth. They are rot yet twiaeted—that is the enact ing code ordinance has not yet been adopted In council. Councilman Bar rett, of the Third, asked that the adopt ing ordinance be not passed until '.hat most careful consideration be given the matter that its Importance de mands. Mi. Dutcher tells of these propose 1 rhanges In interesting and Instructive way. presenting them In a light net before attempted, Mr. Dutcher also brings out some very Interesting Information In his talk. He points out that “new city code" Is hardb a correct term In allud ing to the work, as the city has really never had a code. Compilations of or dinances aud assembly acts of city im port had been had. He indicates what the new work will be. It tvlll he small er than the rode of 1889. That work constated of 692 pages. It was the re sult cf the labors of the late Me. L,. r. P.’oome. and Mr. Dutcher pays high tribute to Mr. Bloonle. The present work will be 250 to 300 pages. Ev erything has been boiled down.

A tree of historic Interest was cut down at Augusta, Me., last week. It was n mnple on the lawn of the Dlalno residence In Slate street, beneath which Mr. lllaine stood when formally no‘ - fled by a committee of his nomination for the presidency in 1884. The controversy that has been raging In so vend New York papers over the authorship in 1861 of "All Quiet Along the Potomac,” seems sell led by the ci tation from Bryant’s Übrary of Poetry and Song of his naming the writer as Mrs. Ethel l,ynn Beers. It is rdated that the senior major general of the «rmy takes ofT hl» dude clothe* when he gets on the scrapping line. Hi might keep them on. One lesson of the war is that dudes fight. Ikwey was put down In Washington t.s a dude admiral. They say thnt Blanco, who went to Havana poor. wiU return to Spain with a vast fortune. 'He resolutely declines to admit that the war was a failure, ov anything like It. so far as his own in terests were concerned. The Ohio statesman insists that he was. consulted in all war movements, that “There never was a minute When Hanna wasn’t in it.” Well, there Is this about it: Aa gfista boys who enlisted won't tire their neighbors and friends about the stories of battles.

It t* a grievance which al most ull the newspaper* tnlllct, but t write to you. as the Times I* pre-emi nently my paper. This Is what I have to complain of. Every few day* I no tice a heading about nn aged man or woman lilt by a trolley or cable car or wagon, or aorm'itaingr TNt kind, auo Immediately upon reading the word "aged” there comes Isidore the mind a vision of bow-backed feebleness or *loh tierlng Imbecility that eeerns to have In vited such *tn accident. But when I come to read the paragraph I often find that this so-called “aged" person Is only 48 or 50 years old. Now, all this Is extremely discour aging to a large number of your read ers who range, say. from 50 to SO yours of age. and so far from regarding them selves as aged." or .•'venerable." or ■advanced in years," feel themselves not only quite Strong, but even lively. If not frisky, and capable of much work yet In life. It Is for you to calculate how many of your readers you ran afford to ex asperate and possibly lose as subscrib er* by representing them as being of the feeble and helpless class Indicated by aged. Cannot the Times lead off tn the reform by instructing Its reporter* to describe none of the ages I have In dicated as tn any sense aged or vener able po t pie? Why not draw the line, say. at*7s> and class alt under that age ns juvenls nnd only those above It as senis. nnd so spare the feelings of a large number of your reaae J r ®r ? VBNls Hudson. N.

Miles here five or elx years ago a re tired army veteran resident on the hill, said; “The country is preparing for war. We will have it in less tha i ten years.” The New' York Sun thinks Hogan may win in Georgia. But wasn t it the New York Sun that once said Boast Butler would win? It is understood that John Sherman wants to be Governor of Ohio, but it is not so clear that Ohio wauts him. Lieut. John W.
