IleRlntrntlon OfTlclnln Alunt lie Nnincil br the City Council Uurliiu the CoinlnK Month. At scene meeting during September the city council will have to appoint tbo upervlsors of registration to conduct the cglstratlon for the fall election ? . The fact hot the city will not elect a single- officer oca not relieve It from the burden of urnlahlng registration officials. There has > een some speculation of late whether , In vlow of the scarcity of labor of all kinds , hero would not ho connldcrablo difficulty mot with In lllllng the 2SS positions on the 'cglstratlon boards , and the absence of any nlk or Inquiry concerning the appointments a been taken as an Indication that such vould be the case. Whether the city must furnish voting xxUhs for the fall elections Is still a qucs- lon at lesuo between the city and county. t the condemnation of tbo old booths by the Joard of Public Works Is construed to crmlnato the contract binding the city , ounly and school district the field In lear for n now agreement between the hroe Interested administrations. But the ounty commissioners , when last they ox- ressed an opinion , wcro Inclined to hold lie city for repairs on the aid booths and note o regard the contract ns abrogated.

To the Editor of The Jco : The dally paper has como to be doomed j i as essential to American life In Us best con- | dltlons as the dally mall delivery or rapid rauslt In municipal car service. But as tho' I ' rapidity of Us succession , so Is the attention ; enerally glvci. to Its Items by Us patrons. Such ought not to be. Wo are a fust people of a fast age and generally as selfish as wo are hasty. There are Items in every Issue of the dally press which should receive much moro attention than a passing notice , for many of thorn , within the space of a few Miles , contain the basic Ideas of Important and far-reachtug national , social and re- Iglous problems. A fo\v such are here cited from a single Issue , to stimulate , It possible , a moro careful attention to uomeutous subjects : Now that the funds have been raised to jrlng the First Nebraska home , It 13 con sidered proper to remark , editorially , that ho policy so enthusiastically supported was rom the beginning "wrong and pernicious. " Why was not the truth of the matter editorially noticed at first ? We all of us cringe at the dicta of public opinion , and 'or fear of Us frowna we shirk our known duty. We all knew , from the beginning , that the method devised was absolutely wrong and our duty to God and the public de manded that we should give utterance to our convictions. The troops' expenses had al ready been paid , and the more suggestion that we would defray the expense of trans portation was morally Injurious to the soldier. Ho was no sufferer demanding our sympathies. Ho should stand on his man- I lood and courteously refrain from accepting | i a double remuneration for his services. Nor should the peopte at largo , through their agent , the state legislature , be forced to payer or what has already been adequately satis fied. Not an lota of patriotism Is sunken In wltholdlng contributions to a fund now acknowledged to be Improper and unjust. Let our future bo governed by the lessons of the past. Our vaunted title , "A Christian Nation , " ought to mantle the cheek of the professing Christian with shame as he scans the Items pertaining to the- shirking of .taxes , which can by no means bo charged to Chicago citizens alone , but the dishonest and criminal practice Is everywhere prevalent. "Tho stream cannot rise higher than Us source. " No law that can be enacted will avail fufly to remedy the evil , for so much of personal property Is of such a nature that U can readily bo > > liiden speedily and In such various ways as to elude Its detection by the wisest and sharpest. If the masses were honest , the minority , perforce , would have to be. The millionaire , trust or chartered corporation do not seek to evade taxation more sedulously than the small merchant and the farmer. All classes belong to this ; 1 syndicate. Whence th remedy ? Ask the 1 IS.000,000 professing Christians of the ' United ; States for an evidence of their Influence In this particular , And the profane'- aid with their own contributions to the shortage will place the state ami municipal treasuries In n plethoric condition without any attention to other law than wo have. A girl of 14 wn arrMtcd In the Bluffs recently for drunkenness and profanity. A flno of $50 and coats was Imposed , which was held In suspension during good behavior on account of her youth , That's all , She has a local1 habitation. Somebody knows whero. The vicious and depraved In her Im- mcdlato vicinity know. Docs any Christian thereabout ? Does anybody care for that poor girl' * soul ? The public has been taxed to pay for her apprehension , arrest and Im prisonment. From the Item It Is Inferred she has no parents , relatives or friends. What of her future and the public' * financial and moral responsibility therefor ? Any real Christians In Council Bluffs ? A homeless and friendless girl of U out In the current of crime 1 Will anyone do his or her duty and "throw out the life-line ? " "Died Intestate , No real property. Per sonal property , $10,000. " That's all the notice. That was Bob Ineersoll to whom the Item referred. What a lesson does dead Bob teach to us Christians ! It Is far from n bellttllns thought that wo thus familiarly refer to him. In his largeness of heart and philanthropic purposes hd deserves the plaudits of all humanity. The divine monitor within him. but which for some inscrutable reason ho failed to recognize , prompted Ihe magnificent generosity of his being and the pure , unadulterated love he ever exhibited for his family , a model hus- Ixind , lather , friend. The recipient of a princely salary for more than a third of a century , not a dollar of which came through dishonest methods , all but what the notice states , was expended In supplying the wants of an unostentatious home and In assuaging the hardships of penury and woe wherever found. In all proper reason , ought not Ingersoll dead to bo a greater factor for the world's good than Ingot-soil living ? May wo profit by his example. It Is suggested that the government raise colored troops for sen-Ice In the tropics , as auch soldiers made an excellent record In the civil war and In the Cuban campaign. They would thus uphold the national honor and save the white troops from the fearful slaughter which the climatic conditions en gender. They could easily bo secured from the thickly populated region of the south. In calmly considering this proposition one Is astounded that It should proceed from a northern journal. What moral effect has that Journal put forth during the last quar ter of a cantury to secure to the colored population of the south their Just rights of citizenship under the law and abolish the reign of terror and mobocracy which has characterized that territory during all this time ? Wo can encourage them to take our place on the dead line while we deny to them our friendly support In acquiring dis tinction In the arts of peace and civil llto ! If this bo not a Brutus' stab , where can we look for one ? If the enemy , the southern Journal , had made the proposition , It would bo In accordance with the eternal fitness of things , but from a professed friend It Is ( sorrowful to contemplate. There Is no single power In this nation so mighty for our weal or woe as the public press. Even those questions which are con sidered of a purely religious nature , when editorially noticed by the secular press , carry a weight with the masses. Including the ecclesiastical representatives , of far greater potency than the strictly religious press and the ministerial army combined. Con sidering the gigantic power thus wielded , of all men the editorial staff of the secular press should be the most courageous , abso lutely fearless of public opinion , for , to a large extent , they fire 'the "moulders of that opinion. It seems to be'tho general falling of humanity to be 'derelict In duty. There are none of UB who-'cbmo ' up to the full measure of our knowledge or capacity , and It Is In the hope that all whose eyes may catch theae remarks may be stimulated tea a closer scrutiny of the columns of the press , to a more earnest effort In the per formance of duty antt a higher regard for the Inherent rights of man.
