In the Oth and Bth wards of Wheeling
150 German Republicans liavo bolted

A recently organized Cleveland and
Hendricks Club at Whitewater, Wis.,

(mostly from Republicans) will be 50,000.
If so, tho Democrats will have 10,000

C1.1.X EI.A MI’S IlKCOKI).
lit this same spirit of exact and
equal justice, which has demanded of
corporations compliance with the pro
visions of law binding upon them, the
governor has observed the express
rights given to them by law, His
principle has been “The public faith
must be scrupulously kept.” Upon
this principle lie undertook to act in
the matter of the veto of w hat has
come to he known ns the ‘ h ive Cent
Fare Bill.”
The Elevated Railroads of New
York City, under their charters,
charged an uniform rate of fare of five
cents during certain ol the morning
and evening hours in which the great
body of workingmen went to and from
their homos, arid ten cents for the rest
of the day. In 1883 the legislature
passed a hill to make the rate of fare
live cents throughout the day. This
hill the governor vetoed, upon the
ground that it involved a breach of
faith on the part of the State. The
general law, passed in 1850, and for
nearly a ipurter of a century declaring
the |K>liey of the State, had promised
that the legislature would not reduce
the rates of any railroad until its
reduced rates should produce a profit
of ten per centum on the capital
actually expended. The governor
declared that until the profits of these
roads should have been ascertained to
exceed this limit, the policy ofthe State
forbade their reduction. A subsequent
examination by the railroad commis
sion, consisting of one Democrat, one
Republican, and one Anti-Monopolist,
showed that the earnings of the roads
were not such us to justify the pro-
of fare, thus justifying
the action of the governor.
Another reason for Ids veto was
found in the express | rovisions of
special acts applicable to these roads.
It was i herein provided that the com
pany should under bonds pledge itself
to pay a certain per cent age into the
city treasury which should “cons itnle
an agreement in the nature of aeon
tract hetwet n ti e city and constructing
company, entitling the company to
the legalized rates of fare, which shall
not he changed without the mutual
consent of tho par ies. ’
The railroad company having made
these payments to tin: city the governor
considered that under tho-” terms of
this act there had been constituted “an
agreement :h the nature of a contract”
between the city and the company,
w hicli the State void 1 not in good faith
abrogate.
It also appeared that still another
contract in witting, to the same effect,
had been made between tbe rapid
transit commissioners and tbe railroad
companies, before the roads were built
and to induce th 'ir construction, thus
constituting a third promise on the
part of the public which this bill pro
posed to break. The governor did not
believe that the people of New York
nor the legislature, when brought to a
knowledge of these tacts, would desire
this great State to be even suspected
ot trifling with its obligations, and so in
a message -o explicit as t" necessarily
reach great length, he transmitted to
the as- tnbly the reas< ns why he was
unable to approve the bill. The effect
justified his estimate of the honor ol
the Mate and of it- legislat- r \
majority voted to sustain his veto,
while two-thirds would have been
necessary to overrule it.) From every
side came expressions of commenda
tion for the scrupulous attention that
had been given to the maintenance of
the public faith, and (though there was
dissent from the governor’s conclusion
that a contract existed), none doubted
but that, this being liisho nest conclu
sion, he was by his oath hound to dis
approve the bill.
1 HE LOSS OF V\ .VIST.
\Y omen, especially those of the
upper classes, who are not obliged to
keep themselves in condition by work,
lose after middle age—sometimes
earlier—a considerable amount of their
height, net by stcoting, as men do, but
by actual collt'ijwe, sinking down,
mainly to be attributed to the perish
ing of the muscles that support the
frame, in consequence of habitual and
constant pressure of stays, and de
pendence upon artificial support by
them afforded. Every girl who wears
stays that press upon these muscles
and restrict the tree development of
the fibres that form them, relieving
them from their duties ot supporting
the spine, indeed incapacitating them
for so doing, may feel sure she is pre
paring herself to be a dumpy woman.
A great pity! Failure of health
among women when the vigor of youth
passes away is but too patent, and but
too commonly caused by this practice.
Let the man who admires the piece of
pipe that does duty for a human body
picture to himself the wasted form
and seamed skin. Most women, front
long custom of wearing these stays,
are really unaware how much they are
hampered and restricted. A girl of
twenty, intended bv nature to be one
of her finest specimens, gravely assures
one that her stays are not light, being
exactly the same size as those she was
first put into, not perceiving her con
demnation in the fact that she has
grown fnc inches in height and two
inches in shoulder-breadth. Her stays
are not too tight because the constant
pressure has prevented the natural
development of heart and lung space.
The dainty waist of the poets is
precisely that flexible slimness that is
destroyed bv stays. The form result
ing from them is not slim, but a piece
of pipe, and as inflexible. But, w hile
endeavoring to make clear the outrage
upon practical good sense and sense of
beauty, it is necessary to understand
and admit the whole state of the case.
The reason, if not a necessity, for some
sort of corset may be found when the
form is very redundant; this, however,
cannot be with the very voting and
slight, but all that necessity could
demand, and that practical good sense
and fitness would concede, could be
found in a strong, elastic kind of
Jersey, sufficiently strong, and even
stiff, under the bust to support it, and
sufficiently elastic :.t the sides and
back to injure no organ and impede
no functions. Even in the case of the
young and slight an elastic Land under
the false rib would not be injurious
but perhaps the contrary, serving as a
constant hint to keep the chest well
forward and the shoulders back, but
every stiff', un\ ielding machine, crush
ing the ribs and destroying tho fiber of
muscle, will be fatal to health, to
freedom of movement and to beauty;
