It is stated that during tbe last year 25
percent, more people went abroad than
during any other year in tbe bistory of
ocean travel. No doubt the statement is
correct. The shortening of the time for
the trip, and the unusual attractions on the
other side, caused the increase.
The great ball in New York which Mr.
Ward McAllister is arranging for will take
place the night after New Year’s, nnd it is
said that it will be the most brilliant and
exclusive ever held. The social leaders of
Philadelphia and Boston will be allowed to
buy ticket*. It will be a great occasion for
Mr. McAllister, as the leader of the select
400.
Congressman Knapp of New York had
hardly registered in Washington the other
day, when he announced his intention to
smash the civil service laws. Mr. Knapp
should not trouble himself about that. The
President and Brother Wanamaker will see
to it that the civil service laws are not
greatly respected under this administra
tion.
John L. Sullivan has received two chal
lenges to enter the prize ring, one from
McCaffrey and the other from the colored
pugilist, Jackson. He says as soon as
McCaffrey “puts up the stuff,” he will give
attention to tbe challenge. As for Jackson,
Sullivan has several times announced con
temptuously that he would have nothing to
do with him.
The republican organs are saying that
the democrats have cast ex-Senator Thur
man aside, now that they have it in their
power to send him back to the Senate.
Everybody sees through this. The repub
lican org ms want to create the impression
that the democrats have no further use for
*uch a good man as Mr. Thurman. They
know very well, however, that Mr. Thur
man doesn’t want the senatorship, and that
if it should be forced upou him, they would
have something to say about “imposing
upon a poor, feeble old uian.”
Foraker'a Smile.
Foraker smiles over his defeat. His
smile is said to be a ghastly sort of one.
however. Some of his best friends think
that his political career is ended. It would
not be at all surprising if it were. A Phila
delphia admirer suggested that he fansfer
his residence to Pennsylvania, where the
majority of the Republican party is still
large, and where he would still have a
chance of getting a good office in the near
future. He declined the kind offer, and
said that he would stick to Ohio.
A few of the republican newspapers say
that he is bearing his defeat manfully.
They desire to lighten a little the misfortune
which has overtaken him. They realize
how great the misfortune is. and do not ex
pect to see him again prominent in Ohio
politics.
Foraker pretends that b is glad that the
south has an opportunty to get even with
him. He declares that he bas aroused the
south to auger so often that it seems only
fair that she should have a little revenue.
He is mistaken if he thinks the south was
ever ar gry with him in the same way she
would be with a straightforward enemy
who struck manly blows. The south has
no respect for him because he bas acted
the part of a hypocrite. He sought
to arouse in the north a feeling
of hatred against the south,
not because he believed the south deserved
hatred, but simply to gain a partisan ad
vantage. If Foraker were an honest enemy
the south might be angry with him, but it
would not have a feeling of contempt for
him.
Foraker was responsible for the story,
which was circulated by the Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette, ia the recent cam
paign in Ohio, that his opponent for gov
ernor was engaged in a oorrupt money
making scheme to foist on the nation a
patent ballet box. It wag at first supposed
that Halstead, the editor of the Commer
cial Gazette, was responsible for it, but the
statement which Halstead made
a few days ago, shows that such
was not the case. There is hardly room
for doubt that Foraker knew
that tbe story was not true. The document
on which—sbe story was based, and which
contained the name of Campbell, Foraker’a
opponent, also contained the names of
Senator Sherman and Congressmen But
terworth, McKinley and Cox. Only Camp
bell’s name was given to the public, and
yet he knew that it Campbell was guilty
all the others were. Did he believe Sher
man, Butterworth, and McKinley, all
prominent republican leaders, guilty? Of
course not, and neither did he believe
Campbell guilty. He must have suspected
that all the names were forged. He didn't
search for the truth, however. That was
not what he wanted, and in all he has said
about the south he has never cared for the
truth. It is not to be wondered at, there
fore, that the south has no respect for him.
A Very Broad Statement.
The Washington Post makes the very
broad statement that “it was never honestly
intended to enforce” the civil service reform
law. Does the Post mean that the distin
guished republican congressmen who helped
to pass that law were dishonest, and meant
to deceive their constituents? Doesitmea i
to say that the last national republican con
vention, by approving that law in the
party’s platform, meant to perpetrate a
fraud upon the people. Does It wish it to
be understood that President Harrison,
when he declared in his inaugural address
that he would enforce the law, in letter and
spirit, or words to that effect, was not
honest?
It would indeed be interesting to know
whether the Post desires it to be understood
as saying that its political friends are
neither honest nor sincere in the matter of
the civil service reform law, but have been
simply trying to throw dust in the eyes of
the people. If it does mean to say this, and
if what it says is true, it furnishes one of
the reasons for the overwhelming defeat
which the Republican party suffered in the
recent elections. If that party is as bad as
the Post seems to make out it is time that it
was broken and scattered.
The Post assumes to speak for the Demo
cratic party also, with respect to civil ser
vice reform. It Is not able to da that.
Wbat it says of that party is not worth a
second thought, because, seeing the rotten
ness of its own party it would like it to
appear that the Democratic party is
morally rotten also. The Democratic party
is not now in power and is therefore not on
trial The Post, however, is authorized to
speak for the Republican party. Its editor
once sat is toe chair now occupied by Mr.
Wanamaker. The Post therefore knows
wherein the Republican party is want ing.
Wanting in One Thing.
An address, delivered by Sergeant Tims
while standing by the coffin of a policeman,
is attracting a good deal of attention in the
press. Sergeant Tims is a member of the
New York police force, and he and the dead
man were great friends. Many times they
had talked on religious topics. Sergeant
Tims is a Christian and a deacon in a
church. The dead man was an agnostic.
Just before his death he requested that only
his friend, the sergeant, should speak at his
funeral. The sergeant, knowing that his
friend was not a believer in Christianity,
hardly knew what to say, but he determined
that what he said should be the truth. He
arose and, amid breathless silence, with
tearful eyes and voice trembling with emo
tion, said:
He was not what you might call a Chris
tian, but he loved the truth and did his
duty. This was a simple, unpretentious,
unassuming man. He was pre-emiuently
an honest man, who hated deceit and im
posture and loved the truth for its own
sake. He never crawled nor cringed nor
cowered. He was neither a hypocrite nor
a dissembler.
There was only one thing wanting. If
the sergeant, in his simple but eloquent
eulogy, could have said that his dead friend
was also a Christian, he would have pre
sented him as having been a man whose
character was worthy of being held up for
others to copy.
One or two of the Philadelphia news
papers sav that the accounts of Philadel
phia’s ill treatment of tbe pan-American
delegates were incorrect, and that the mat
ter will be brought before the President and
Secrotary Blaine, with a view to vindi
cating Philadelphia. It will strike most
people that Philadelphians had better keep
quiet. Some of the newspapers of that city
have virtually admitted that the accounts
referred to were correct, and the delegates
who have spoken on the subject have sub
stantiated them. One of the delegates re
marked, after his return to Washington,
“It would not have surprised me if some
Philadelphian hid poked a finger in my
ribs and said. ’Well, he’s iu pretty good
condition.”'
THE MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1889—TWELVE PAGES.
An Important Question.
The people are beginning to inquire why
it is that the mayor doesn’t make an effort
to punish those who violate the ordinance
prohibiting the sale of intoxicating bever
ages on Sunday, it is doubtless true that
lo omplnint is made to him that any par
ticular person violates this ordinance, but
he cannot help knowing that it is openly
and flagrantly violated, because the num
ber of persons who are brougt
before him on Monday morning, on the
ebargeof having been drunk and disorderly
on Sunday, is greater than on any other
day. These poor wretches are punished,
but the greater offenders—those who fur
nished them with whisky and beer -escape
any punishment whatever.
It can hardly be said that the mayor has
no means of finding out who violate the
ordinance. The information could easily
be obtained from those who are brought
before him on the charge of being drunk.
They would hardly have any hesitation in
telliug where they got whisky. Let the
mayor ask some of those who will be
brought before him on next Monday, and
there is not much doubt that he will be
given enough evidence to enable him to
reach the offenders. If they refuse to tell
him where they got whisky he has the
power to punish them for contempt of
court
The mayor has another means of getting
information. It is the poiioe. Doubtless
the police know all saloons in the city that
are open on Sunday. If they were instructed
to do so they would arrest those who are
responsible for keeping them open, and
would have the offenders before the mayor
on Monday morning to be dealt with along
with those charged with being drunk.
There is no other city in the state in
which the barrooms are permitted to be
open on Sunday. Indeed, all the cities in
the country require the barrooms to be
closed. In Cincinnati the people took the
Sunday liqu r question into tbeir own
hands, and drunkenness on Sunday was
summarily stopped. Even in so large a city
as New York the barrooms are closed on
Sunday—that is, their back doors as well as
their front ones are closed. Is Savannah
to stand alone in permitting intoxicating
beverages to be sold on Sunday?
An Interesting Local Matter.
Very naturally the question of assessing
the ground rent lots is the leading subject
of local interest since the city attorney, in
a very carefully considered and clearly ex
pressed opinion, bolds that they are not
exempt from taxation. Of course the
owners of these lots question the correct
ness of the opinion, declare that the city
is not acting in good faith in even
proposing to assess the lots and announce
their intention to test in the courts the
question whether or not the lots can be
taxed. It was not supposed that they
would act differently. They are doing
just what others would do under
the same circumtances. and it is
only fair to them to admit that
they are perfectly sincere in the position
which they take. If the city attorney’s
opinion is correct, however, and there is
not much, if any, reason to doubt that it is,
they must pay the taxes for which their
lots are liable, whether they want to or not.
Doubtless they will pay them without un
necessary delay when they become satisfied
that it is right that they should.
Unless the council becomes convinced
that the city attorney’s opinion is not cor
rect its duty is plain. In fact, it can do
only one thing, and that is to order the lots
assessed along with the other property of
the city. If it should refuse to order thorn
assessed it would place itself in the
position of exempting from taxation a vast
amount of very valuable property. Of
course it has no right to exempt these lots
even though they have never been assessed.
The failure to assess them was, according
to the council’s legal authority, a mistake.
The mistake, having been pointed out, must
be corrected. It cannot be ignored, and to
assume that tbe council will ignore it is, to
say the least, a very violent assumption.
There is much said about the city’s break
ing her contract. It is not proposed that
she shall break any contract. If it can be
shown that there is a valid contract which
exempts these lots from taxation it will
doubtless be respected. The great body of
the taxpayers, however, will hardly consent
to bear an extra tax burden for no other
reason than that, through a mistake, they
have been doing so.
The republican newspapers have hereto
fore abused Allen O. Myers, of Ohio, in
round terms, but they have now dropped
that, and it would not be surprising if in a
few days they fell to praising him. The
cause of this change of attitude may be
slated ia very few words. Myers has told
the democrats of Ohio that if they elect a
millionaire for senator, he will stump the
state against them. In this particular case,
the republican newspapers are strongly op
posed to the election of a millionaire, but
they have never uttered a word of protest
whea millionaires have been elected to tfce
Senate by the republicans, and they do not
mention the fact that Senator Sherman, of
Ohio, is probably worth ?1,000,000. One
thing may be said about Mr. Calvin S.
Brice. If he is elected to the Senate it will
not be because he is wealthy, but because
his party appreciates his services last fall
as chairman of the democratic national
campaign committee. Mr. Brice did not
elect the democratic ticket, but he did some
excellent work for it.
Avery unusual scene was witnessed in a
street car in New York the other day—that
of an ex-Fresideat of the United States
giving up his seat to a working girl. Mr.
Cleveland was riding to his office, and
the car was full. When the girl entered
nobody seemed to be goiug to offer her a
seat, and noticing this, the ex-President
arose, politely insisted that she should take
the seat he had vacated, and made the rest
of tbe trip standing. The young girl did
not know him, and doubtless when she dis
covers that .it was an ex-President who
gave up his seat for her, she will admire
Mr. Cleveland more than she ever did be
fore; and she will not forget that the space
that was so gracefully yielded to her was
very comfortable, because it was large
enough to accomodate two girls of average
size.
The New York Mail and Express states
that Mr. Arkell, of Judge, approached
Postmaster General Wanamaker the other
day, and offered to buy tho privilege of
advertising on the backs of postage stamps.
Tbe amount he is said to have offered is
SIOO,OOO a year, and Mr. Wanamaker is
said to have been disposed to accept the
offer, although he was not certain that be
was authorized by law to do so. Judge is
the comic newspaper in which Russell Har
rison is reported to have an interest.

It’s a curious fact that while
the ‘little fellows ’ up the

The knowledge of values to

The baits and decoys that

A Salt Lake justice of the peace was recently
called upon to unite a couple In matrimony.
The name of the groom was John Pill. When
the justice reached ttie point of the ceremony
where the bride agrees to take the groom for
better or wor-e, the justice said: "Clara, do
you take this Pill?” The bride was heard to
respond "Yes” almost inaudibly, while her face
was suffused with blushes.
The “little fellows” who
hold up their hands in holy
horror at the immense strides
which we’ve made in the
dress goods trade of this
town find our pills hard ones
to swallow. Our customers,
on the other hand, seem to
heartily enjoy them. They
find they’re quite rejuvenating
