PARTISAN OR INDEPENDENT.
The following It the opinion f the
Minneapolis Timet on the position noil
occupied by the Independent newspa
per: Ml has become more and mora appar
ent as the Republic grow older, as ede
culon fat mora widely dlffosed and (as a
corollary) men think not only more, bat
more to the purpose, the (unction of the
independent paper is becoming better
and belter understood, the) need for such
a paper Is becoming more widely recog.
ulzed" j"
lu an address al St. Louis b fore, the
meeting of the press association theie,
the President expressed himself as fol
lows, in pretty plain language, regard
ng the strict party newspaper:
"Men who have no use for a paper po
litically are the first to call on it for help
la matters of local Interest. The minis
ter wants lielp to get a crowd at his
meetings; the business matt Wants the
town to boom, and he frequently con
sults the paper about the best way to
procure the result; the city officials want
to keep all the bad things they do oat
of the paper, and want to see the good
ones inserted; in tact the whole commu
nity goes to the newspaper office to help
push alone; different things.
' In all this work the editor la con
sulted, for he is generally a man who
loves his city and country, and It will
ing to be worked to death to see them
improve. Oftentimes he Is the very
head of these matters, his opinion It
sought and his advice taken, bat the line
is sharply drawn when he touches the)
subject of politics; then he becomes as
great a fakir as wis ever graduated
from the new Chinese school. Why does
this condition exist? The answer is
simple. In one Instance both the editor
and paper seek to be. honest, Independ
ent, fearless; in the other the editor
is forced by the paper to line up with
his party he Is not Independent; often
he is not honest, and at general rule
he is cowardly, for fear he may offend
some scheming politician and thereby
lose hs influence with the party."

Possibly the most novel response ever
ttrMe to request to return a vote of
thank to a chairman was that made
by sir. Moody during bta first visit to
England. :;,;'-
He had attended a meeting at which
the Earl of 8haftesbury was chairman.
Tbe duty of proposing a rote of thanks
wat assigned to him and the announce
uentTnade: "Our American eonsln, tbe Rev. Mr.
Moody of Chicago, will now move a
vote of thanks to tbe noble earl -who
lies presided on thla occasion."
.The whole thing was quite out of Mr.
Moody's line. English formalities might
or might not have com, gracefully
from- hit llpa had he attempted there
but be did not With an utter disre
gard of conventionality he burst upon
the audience with tbe bold announce
ment: " , r"" "
"The speaker has faade two mis
takes. To begin with, I'm not the Rev.
Mr. Moody at all. I'm plain Dwlght L.
Moody, a Sunday acbool worker. And
tbea I'm not your American cousin.
By the grace of God I'm your brother,
Interested with you In our Father's
work for his children. ,
"And now about this vote of thanks
to the noble earl for being our chahv
inan thla evening- I don't tee why
we should thank him any. more than
he should thank us. When at one time
they offered to thank our Mr. Lincoln
for presiding over a meeting In Illinois,
he stopped It He said he'd tried to do
bis duty, and they'd tried to do theirs.
He thought It was ( abort an even
thing all round. . t' -rl ,j
That opening fairly took the breath
away from Mr. Moody's hearers. Sack
a talk could not be gauged by any
known standard, Mr. Moody carried
his English andlencea with him from
that beginning to bis latest labors.

From tha&6rtbem and of Chatham
square starts the Bowery, and a few
steps from its commencement Is tbe
building now used as a Oermen thea
ter, which was once the Old Bowery.
Before tbe Bowery theater and previ
ous to the Bevolutloo the tame site
occupied by . a building which has a
place In bistort because Washington
slept In it. This was the Bull's Head
tavern. Being close by the city slaugh
ter bouses, all the butchers who came
to town stopped at this Inn, making It
the first commercial Inn of Its-day.
During the Revolution Henry Aator,
brother of John Jacob Astor, owned
the Bull's Head tavern. He leased It
to Richard Varlaa. But Varlan went
privateering and left' tbe Inn to be
conducted bj bis wife.;
Astor was a butcher and conducted
his business In tbe Fly market In
Maiden lane. He Incurred the enmity
of all tbe butchers in the town by con
ceiving tbe brilliant Idea of riding far
out along the Bowery fane, 'meeting
the drovers as they brought their cat
tle to town aad baying their stock,
which he sold to the other butchers at
his own price. At tbe lane wat really
tbe only road to tbe city, Astor in thla
Way formed a trust and prospered for
many yean. The Inn, too, prospered
until 1820, when It gave place to tbe
Bowery theater. Home Journal.
