The leason which the traction companies might have been expected to otter lu explanation of their course In postponing the franchise question Is now urged by one of their representatives, it Is In substance 1I10 plea that they find the city administration uu-reasonable and unfair In Its demands.

Lest till pretext be made to take oil Mime color of plausibility let the fact be repeated that Chicago has never asked and does not Intend to ask anything more than It consistently ought to demand In falrneis and Justice. The public docs not require impossible things; nor will It seek to Impose such terms as tho corporations cannot meet with fair regard for whatever legitimate property Interests may bo at stake. It wants, only what Is Us due and Its estimate of what Is duo contemplates no conditions which the traction companies need consider unreasonable. The city oillclals In subsequent negotiations would do well, while llrmly maintaining their light lor Chicago's Interests, to deprive tho companies of the pretext that they are being unfairly dealt with. Tho present municipal administration has been maintained lu power because of Its position on the traction Issue.

It Is Mnyor Harrison's attitude on this question that litis, caused his re-election lu spite of other considerations. Manifestly, therefore, the street railway Interests have a plausible argument retnly to hand when tliej declare thnt an admlnlstintlon which profited so much by the traction Issue ilnds It desirable to keep the Issue alive, even to the extent of Imposing lniMisslbIe conditions upon the coin-panics. Mnyor Harrison should sec to It thnt tho corporations find no opportunity St Mr9smWmWam vfi UniRRK jk- K'lBb Prrrm lv B'y (iRRRB aRJHp mvxRRRRRt RRRRRRRRRRRk1 RRRRRRRR to take refuge behind this ni'isumoiit. I'ho Mnyor, like the entire public, wants a settlement that shall give Chicago what It needs. There Is no IIiit ilt Ion anywhere to exact tortus which the companies could not reasonably meet.

It should he Impressed upon them that, while they are dealing with an administration that will Insist uiiou Chicago" rlght, there will he no of fort to make the terms of settlement out of reaon, New. DON'T GO BACK ON THE GROOVED RAIL. When the committee recommendation that the Union Traction Company bo permitted to substitute tlange for grooved rails when It repairs Its right of way on Desplalnes street and waukee avenue comes before the Council It should be 11 mended to Insist on the grooved rail. The tight for grooved rails In Chicago has been too long and stubborn and their superiority where adopted too manifest to permit of any such backward step as that proposed by a bare majority of the Committee on Streets and Alleys West. The Union Traction Compauy gave no reason for Insisting on laying the llange rail beyond Its own desire and the slight difference In cost of the grooved rail, liven If this difference was a material amount the city authorities would still be Jttstliled In Insisting upon the street car company providing the rail least obnoxious the free traillc of the street In return for the privilege of laying any rails at all.

The llange rail Is and always has been a nuisance In the public streets. It has only been tolerated because of the great convenience street car lines have been to the general public. Hut the grooved rail has provided a means of reducing the obtrusion of street railway tracks on public thoroughfares at very slight advance In cost. That the local sentiment Is against the continuance of the llange rail Is proved by the fact that (he traction company had to go outside of the district through which the right of way Is to be repaired to get an Alderman to Introduce Its ordinance. The Mayor and the Commissioner of Public Works have very properly refused to grant a permit for laying the llange rail In Desplalnes street or Milwaukee avenue, and if the Council Is equally zealous In guarding the traillc of those thoroughfares from Injury It will taken similar stand In favor of the grooved rail.

Itecord-IIerald. NEW WARDEN OF THE COUNTY HOSPITAL. the appointment of Daniel D. Healy to the position of Warden or the Cook County Hospital the public will Hud 11 gratifying promise that mismanagement lu that institution Is to cease. President Hnnlerg deserves credit for his choice of an olllelal who has tho public coutldcnce 111 a high degree and whose career lu otllce has.

been of a character to entitle him to respect and esteem. Mr. Ilealy's abilities In the conduct of executive or administrative olllccs have been proved. He Is familiar with every phase of I lie County's airairs and with Its public Institutions. He will take control of the hospital at a time when, as the Investigation Instigated by The Dally Nows has shown, It Is suffering from Incompetent management and the natural effects of political Intriguing.

The abuses In the Institution merely lellectcd the inilu-once of the agencies that encourage fa-vorltlsm lu the distribution of County olllccs. lu the admission of bogus "patients' and damage-suit attorneys, and lu the scamping of public contracts. Ii will be Mr. Ilealy's duty to put mi end to this condition. Mr.

Healy should prove to be well lilted both to ascertain how reforms can best be set under way ami to carry them out successfully. News. J. J. MITCHELL BUYS NEW HOME.

John .1. Is the latest addition to the colony of Lake Geneva property owners and cottagers. on Monday night he purchased from I'. It. Chandler of Chandler Co.

his beautiful Ceylon Court, the building brought from their native country by Hie Coy Ion commissioners to tho World's I 'air and afterward bought from them by Mr. Chandler. Sixty acres of ground, covering Ceylon Point, one of the most charming spots on the lake, go with the house. The place famous, bolli for Us quaint and stately Interiors and Us gardens, which have been laid out with semi-tropical plants lu conformity with the character of the building. Mr.

Chandler, who with his brother-in-law, II. (i. Sell'rldge, own several hundred acres at various points "ii Lake Ceneva, will at once begin the construction of another summer place there for his own use. Mr. offer was accepted Just as he was about to move out to Ceylon Court with his family.

Very little change, with the exception of lining It for the puipoM's of a mod ern American dwelling, has been made lu the structure since it was brought lu sections to Chicago from Columho. The famous octagon hall, with Its massive carved plllais and oil painting on wooden walls has been pro served complete, ami the graceful cupolas and wide verandas have been also rot alued. WALKER WILL CLEAN COURTS. UP POLICE It Is geneially n'groed among the best lawyers that there Is only one ell'cetlvo remedy for the Police Court evils and abuses lu Chicago, and that Is the complete abolishment of the system. This much deslied reform must be accomplished by an act of tho Legislature.

It Is not necessary to wall, however, for the Legislature to abolish the system to slop some of the practices that have made the courts a travesty of Justice. These couits, so far as their Jurisdiction over police cases Is concerned, are within the teach of the city administration. It Is In tlio power of tho Mayor to call the Police Justices to account and to step some of the evils thnt have certain police stations. The assistant prosecutor have been guilty of neglect and Irregularities which call for a complete overhauling, lu oino station, lu fact, their conduct Is more censurable than that of the themselves. Itcccnt occurrences lu the Harrison and Desplalnes Police Stations especially demand prompt and vigorous treatment.

Person have escaped punishment through carelessness or dishonesty on the part of prosecutor nnil Justices who should now be serving sentences In the penitentiary at Innocent persona accused of offense ngolnst city ordinances have suffered grievously because tlicy Imd no "Inilu-clue" or no money wltli which to employ competent attorneys. Many of the Courts are the scenes dally of undignlited and Improper proceedings that should not be permitted It Is gratifying to note the determination of Acting Mayor Walker to Inaugurate 11 thorough house cleanlier in all the Police Courts itnl tli.it he will the vigorous co-operation of Chief O'Neill In bringing about needed re-tonus. Many of the assistant prose-enters should be promptly relieved of their duties and honest, capable nttor-nejs put In their places. accord-Herald. THE PRESS CLUB EXCURSION.

Potter's ability and success as a lluniiclcr Is demonstrated by the great progress which the American Trust anil Savings Hank has made since his election us president, lu January, 1MW.

His aggressive but conservative policy has expanded the In ilueiice of the bank steadily. Its deposits have grown from the total when he entered the presidency, until, at the date of the last call from the Slate Auditor. May 11. mill, they amounted to In the last year alone nearly was gained In deposits. The bank outgrew lli'st Us old quiii tcrs at Madison and LaSalle streets, and moved to new banking rooms 011 the ground iloor of the New Vorl; Life building.

space Is required now, ami the trust department of the bank Is being moved across die hall lo the olllce formerly occupied by Jamicsou Co. According lo Its last statement, the hank has a capital of a surplus of Sam 1,11110, ami undivided roll is of SI to.Si'.il. Mr. Potter was limn lu Hath, lu IS and was educated lu the public schools. When Abram French Co.

Potter Is prominent as a clubman, being a member of the Chicago, the Union League, Hie Chicago Athletic, the Kenwood, and the Midlothian Country clubs. EAGLETS. Mr. Edwin A. Potter has always been a winner ami a success lu every enterprise or business concern that lie has been connected with.

Since he became president of the American Trust and Savings Hank lu January, INe), he has ably demonstrated his great popularity with Hie best business men of Chicago, and also his ability as a financier, by having more than trebled the bnnk's deposits. Hon. P. Mellugh Is one of the best lawyers Jn Chicago mentioned us a Democratic candidate for Judge next year. Of all tho applicants for appointive olllccs under Oovernor Yates, It.

M. Patterson, of the First Wnrd, seems 10 be having tho hardest luck. After being defeated In the effort to get sev-eral places, ho nt last was offered the position of First Assistant Pure Food Commissioner. When It became known that he was to be appointed members of the Dairymen's Association began to circulate protest. They claim that under the law this place must lie filled by uu export In the buttertnaklug business.

Governor Yates appear to have appointed another relative to office Tuesday. The way the olllccs ami the relatives hold out suggests the Inference that there must be a good many of both. "1 have received many letters from men who think thVy can win my fljNNi, but 1 am not afraid that I will ever have to pay It. No man can succeed In business ami be honest under the conditions that prevail today." In these words before the Social Economics Club, Tuesday, Mrs. Nancy II.

Irving, reformer ami publisher, repeated her challenge of the commercial honor of the day. Among others who hud written her were two bank president. "1 am going to take these men at their word," continued the speaker, "ami eo how they nppear after an investigation. 1 am going to look up their tax receipts for hist year, and then ascertain the value of their property and see how their sworn statement lu regard to their wealth compare with the facts in the case. I will bring the matter to the attention of the Hoard of Assessors and sec whether they are as truthful as they would have the world believe." Mr.

Irving hud been asked by the member of the Economics Club to stale her reasons for the belief that no business man of the day could conduct his affairs one month without lying, ami Instantly she declared that "the dollar had become the god of the business man." "I have received letters from two Chicago bank presidents, and they tire amusing to inc. One says that 1 am a hysterical woman seeking advertisement. The other says that 1 am wrong lu my estimate ttf men In commercial life and that a large majority are really honest." Congressman George P. Foster represents the old Third District. Ills new district Is called the Fourtli, and It Is now more heavily Democratic than before.

A large number of Congressman Foster's constituents live lu the levee, because his old district' took lu the First Ward, ami the Congressman hail unusual opportunities to get acquainted with the people of the levee during the years when lie was Police Magistrate at the Harrison Street Police Court. He Is now serving his second term, having won his seat by defeating Congressman Hugh It. Helkimp lu IN The new County oillclals whom President Haubergof the County Hoard appointed Monday will not wait mil II July 1 before taking possession of their olllccs. Edwin W. Sims walked Into the County Attorney's olllce at 'J o'clock Tuesday afternoon and Introduced himself to County Attorney Julius A.

Johnson as his successor. The first task the new County Attorney will have to decide Is the question wheiher the newly created positions of Assistant Superintendent at Dunning ami Assistant Warden of the County Hospital are appointive or civil-service positions. President Hanberg of Hie County Heard holds that they are clearly administrative olllccs. Hut If the County Attorney decides that they must be tilled by chil-servhe rules President Hauherg says lie will ohify the ruling without question. Daniel D.

Healy, the newly appointed Warden, was not Inclined to talk about his tq polutiuciil. He said simply that If he accepted the olllce he would be Warden lu fact as well as lu name and that he Would do Ills utmost to lend clcilll to the administration of President Han berg. His friends say Unit lie will take the position, although It Involves a loss of from his present salary as County Superintendent of Pub-lie Service, and that lie will take the place about June The day Superintendent Healy sue-cecils James II. Graham as Warden of the County Hospital will be the same day on which William McLaren will succeed Mr. Healy as County Superin tendent of Public Service.

La ron Is now President of the County Civil-Service Commission ami his suc cessor hi Hint position will he appointed by President 'llnnberg at the next meeting of the County Hoard 011 Monday. Politicians complimented President Hanberg 011 his appointment of Healy ami McLaren. There Is general agreement Hint the long count ct Ion of Healy with the administration of County affairs Is certain to give lilm a splendid acquaintance with the needs of the County Hospital ami the requirements of 11 Warden. The selection of Piosldciit Hunberg's close personal and political friend, Mr. as County Superintendent, Is read by the politicians as a declaration of the President's Intention to keep a close personal watch for the next year and a half of the administration of County ail'alrs.

La lluy should be appointed a Police Magistrate. How' much suffering Is caused by fear lu tills world and how much useless suffering. All the terrors of superstition are utterly useless yet they have intllcted suffering beyond calculation. The dreadful fear of ghosts that never existed has probably caused more actual suffering" especially among children than any dozen Illnesses. The great mission of civilization and nf religion Is lo do away with the reign of fear In the heart and the Imagination.

It Is comforting to know that each century sees some step taken toward free-lug men fear and Its accompanying torture. We believe that the keenest suffering through fear comes from drctid of being "found out." What man or child has not dining life suffered keenly the dread of exposure? Who has not lu dreams suffered from fear so keenly as to make the dream seem real for hours after waking ami leave a genuine sensation of agony In tho mind? The mother suffers the agony of fear when her child Is Medical science Is constantly and successfully struggling to eliminate that source of suffering through fear. The working man with wife and children depending on him lives lu constant dread of the notlco In his pay envelope: "Hereafter your services will not bo required." This fear causes him Intense and useless suffering, which weakens ids mind and prevents his best effort. That form of fear Is gradually fading out, tliauks to Improved Indiistilal conditions, and especially to the growing power of trades unionism, which compels tho employer to share the risk and the worry. Tho animals, living lu a constant struggle for life, know fear, but only when danger Is actually present.

There Is no ret son to think that they suffer the agony of anticipation, which so often tortures men. They are mercifully spared. There Is much encouragement -for all In tho gradual extinction of fear us 11 factor In our dally lives. Kvery one who helps along this extliiutlon helps to free mtiiikliidi.l'rom slavery most painful. Kvery person can do something toward minimizing the suffering caused by fear.

Free children from their dread of durUness and of ghosts never Inillct fear upon them by forcing them to do that which frightens them. Cheer up the despuud-cut man or woman whoso fear for tho future makes the present dark, Haulsli fear from your own life, and decide with the old Greek that by living Justly you will put yourself beyond tho power of any man, and, therefore, beyond the reach of fear. -Tho excludes typewriters, machine ami female, from the Turkish dominions because, ho says, ho cannot delect seditious writing If It Is lu tlio form presented by calligraphic uniform characters. Ho will have 110 form of written couimuuieatlous within Ids sul-tnulc Jurisdiction except such as his detectives ami experts can trace to Its authorship by peculiarities of chlrog-iiipby. This opens up a new Inquiry as to how many suspects may have perished by the bowstring lu Turkey 011 the testimony of handwriting experts.

Where suspicion mid prejudice loud experts along the crooked paths of a criminal trial Injustice Is not among the least of tho events to lie expected, in Turkey, where human life Is cheap. It is the opinion of the Chicago Chronicle that the mistake of an expert may bo of llttlo account. Hut lu this couu-try to hung a mini on the testimony of a handwriting expert Is to hang him on tho most uncertain kind of guesswork. The learned uicii of to-day are taklug such high matrimonial grounds nud are placing the bail of their disapproval upon so many feminine types, that It would seem as If a social panic of soiuo kind could hardly ho. averted.

In certain lofty elides It Is decreed that an artist must not limit his freedom by any kind of a marriage, mid again It Is declared that a man' had better go to tho dogs than to go to tho butterflies. The sclety girl is placed lu this latter category ami Is the latest to bo counted among the matrimonially coudeiuued. Just what Is iiiennt by "a society girl" It Is dltllcult to explalu, but tho traditional Ideal Is one who paints a little, plays, "pours," and shops in the same useless fashion and owes her glitter entirely to tho gold thnt a father or a brother has won for her. Hut this traditional typo Is fast disappearing and Is to bo, put on tho storeroom shelf along with the glass-cased, wax pond lilies that once graced the parlor center tables, and In her place will bo a capable creature of Infinite possibilities. One of the most pathetic spectacles In life Is that of the so-called society girl deprived of the luxurious background thnt she had lenrned to take as a matter of course and compelled to put some of her little odds nud cuds of accom plishments to account.

It Is familiarity with this spectacle thnt has caused wise parents to dig deeper when they are laying the foundations for their daughters' education. What might lw called the chiffon age is a natural stage lu every glil's career, but unless hers Is a case of arrested development she will pass by this epoch as naturally as she did the dolt stage. When she has passed through all these phases successfully she Is no longer society girl but a sociological girl. Has anybody nny objections to marrying her? It Is an encouraging sign for the health of the modem American that the popularity of outdoor life lu this country seems to be Increasing. The number ami variety of sports and pastimes which allure to open-air exertion, has grown greatly.

Not very ninny years have elapsed since the time when tenuis iuuI football were unusual and golf and tlie bicycle were nluiost unknown. the Influence of these mid other sports has been so strong lu recent years that open-air llfo has come to be enjoyed for Its own sake and apart from the amusements associated with it. It Is a great mistake to suppose that the pleasures of outdoor life are especial privileges of youth or of any given t.vpo of summer niuusemeiit-seeker. The Immense advantages they confer should bo shared by all alike. In tlio present state of our social development they are among tho richest of the blessings within the reach of the people.

Au interesting temperance measure was presented In tlio New York Legislature, recently adjourned, but fulled of passage. Its purpose was to oblige all saloonkeepers to sell ten, coffee, milk and chocolate as well as Intoxicants, TJio theory of those who drafU ed It 'was that many men who seek tho saloons for warmth nud light nud so ciability, ami drink from a sense of obligation, would bo content with temperance beverages, anil perhaps prefer llieiu, If they were to be had. The opponents of the bill argued that tho saloonkeepers might easily defeat Its purpose If they wished by serving tea ami coffee of so poor a quality thnt no one would drink It; but plan similar to that provided for In the bill has been tried In certain saloons lu England, and with considerable success. The lu variable custom colleges have of bestowing tho title of LL. 11.

on men they desire to honor, regardless of th recipient's Ignorance or knowledge of the law, leads to the conclusion that the colleges regard It ns the only one of the traditional learned professions for which previous preparation Is entirely unnecessary. One never hears of a complimentary degree of D. D. being' bestowed on a layman or M. D.

on a man who has no acquaintance with the tscicnco of medicine. Winikciiiin llruwlui: It Is with plcasuro that wo call the attention of the trade, ami prlvnto families, to tlio fact that owing to the Increasing demand for bottled ale and porter of undoubted purity nud of the finest quality, wo aro now bottling the same under our own supervision. Tho frequent use of adulterants and substitutes for malt and hops lu the manufacture of malt liquors has resulted lu an Inquiry for au article of domestic manufacture, wholly frco from anything of a harmful or deleterious nature, and at a price that would commend Its Use to all. The failure hitherto to obtain such an article has led consumers to purchase imparted goods at a high price. Therefore wo aro prepared to place 011 tho market bottled ale and porter unexcelled lu quality, equal lu every respect to tho Imported, nt a much lower price.

Our goods being manufactured from the choicest barley malt and the best hops In tho market, no substitutes Whatever being used, and, being bottled by ourselves at Waukcgau. enables us to offer to our customers an absolute guaranty of their purify and quality, Families cnu obtain these goods of all tho lending fancy grocers, the principal hotels, restaurants and druggists.
