TO SUBSCRIBERS.
The management of The Post is
making an earnest effort for the
prompt deliver >’ of the paper to every
subscriber. Anyone who fails to get
his paper, will confer a favor by re
porting the fact to the business office,
114 Richmond street.
to Advertisers.
All contract advertisers will please
arrange to have the copy for any
changes or for new advertisements,
sent to the business ollicc of The
Post the day before the change is
t> be made. 'J he management will
esteem it a special favor if this re
quest is complied with.'
The census gives the state of Ver
rnont a population less than that of
n city of respectable size. Senators
Morrill and Edmonds, however, will
not retire from the senate for this
reason.
There are many in this city who
will learn with sincere regret of the
death of Mr. R. 11. Brumby, formerly
connected with the press of this citv.
Mr. Brumby has recently been en
gaged as the managing editor of the
Americus Times, and has been pub
lishing one of the most attractive
papers in the state. His untimely
taking off in the Hower of youth
Situs the fair bud of promise ere its
have matured.

this is to be found in the trend
legislation in this country, which
s discriminated against the agri

THE CpOWTH OF CITIES.
The city is the nerve center of onr
civilization. It is also the storm
center. The fact, therefore, that the
census shows that the cities of this
country aic growing much more rap
idly than the whole population, is
J full of significance. In 1790 only ‘
o.ie thirteenth of the population le
i sided in cities of over 8,000 inhabi
tants. The ratio has steadily In
creased at each census, until in 1880.
■ early one fourth of the entire popu I
lation found their homes in tiie cities. '
How much this proportion is in- |
creased by the present census is not |
yet known, but the indications are, j I
that under the influence of unjust |
legislation, the city lias become a
place of refuge to an ever increasing
proportion of the entire population.
The city has become a serious men
acc to our civilization. It Las apc
culiar attraction for our unassimila ■ i
ted emigrant population, whom the i
debauching influence of municipal j
politics feeds upon and grows with
, its growth. Il is the city where
. wealth is massed, and where are the,
( tangible evidences of it piled many
stories high. There the sway of
Mammon is widest, and his worship
’ most constant and eager. There the
congestion of wealth is the severest,
■ and Dives and Lazarus are brought
face to face evi ry day. The poor of
I a city of 8000 inhabitants arc well off
> compared with many in New York;
I aid there are few such dephts of
■ poverty to be found in New York as
abound in London.
Socialism not only centers in the
city, but is almost confined to it,and
the mateiials of its growth are mul
tiplied with the growth of the city.
There is heaped the. social dynamite;
there lawless and desperate men of
all nations congregate; men who
upon any pretext are toady to resort
to riot for the purpose of destruc
tion and plunder. Under such con ,
ditions, smoulder the volcanic tires
of deep discontent.
It is commonly said in Europe,and
sometimes acknowledged here, that ,
the government of large cities in the
United States is a failure. In all of
the great American cities, there is
to day as clearly defined a ruling
class as exists in the most aristoera
tic countries in the world. Its mem
bers curry wards in their pockets
make up slates for nominating con
ventious, distribute oilices as they
bargain together, and although they
toil not, neither do they spur, yet
they are clothed in line linen and ■
fare sumptuously everyday. It has |
actually come to the pass that hold
ing a municipal office in a large city
almost impeaches the character of a
man. Known integrity and compe <
teucy hopelessly incapacitate a man
for any office in the gill of the city
rabble.
As a rule our largest cities a;e
the worst governed. It is natural,
therefore, t > infer that, as our cities !
glow larger and more dangerous,
the government will become more
corrupt, and control will p iss mo • |
completely into the hands of those
who themselves most need to be con
trolled. The only remedy which is
suggested for this cougestjou of po| -
illation is to so shape legislation as
to render the conditions of life easier
to i. rural population, The adjust
ment of this question will remain one
of the vexed social problems to tax
, the powers of patriotism and states
manship.
The members of the president s ,
inmily will have the opportunity of
making a good deal of money, if they
continue to trade upon the oppor '
tunities of the presidential oilice
Ln persuing such a course, the liar
risons are not exactly .dishonest, but
' one of the safeguards of integrity
which custom Las thrown aronud the
presidential office is discarded, when
the position is used, though indi i
rectly, for bettering the pecuniary
fortunes of the incumbent. Hai t i
son would merit greater respect, if
be retired poor, and devoted himself
to the poultry industry, as Hayes
has dome, rather than attempt to .
grow rich by an unbecoming, al .
though indirect use. of his position.
Such charges have, heretofore, not '
been brought agaiust the executive '
of this country. Let us hope that
the day is far distant, when it can
be said, that any man. to whatever
party he may behmg. who occupies
the executive chair of this great na
tion. is personally corrupt. Yet with
Hamlet, we may exclaim: •‘Thrift.
| Horktio, thrift.”
( Alas! and who would have

Aim the J
We aim to make it, you aim to save it. That's
all right. Your place to trade is where the mer
chant is willing to divide profits, so that you
save while he makes. That place IS Ol R
SI’OKE. We prefer a sm»ll profit on a big
trade to a big profit on a small trade; ten cents
profit from ten people rather than one dollar
profit out of one purse. Do you object that it
takes more* time to serve ten people than one.
and so cost more? We answer that good goods
at small profits sell quickly. It's the haggling
over iaige profits takes the time. Me sell good
eoods at small profits.
