One would think, to read the Lawrence
Nandard, that that Journal had taken the con-
tract to convict DR.. Medlicott. Every week
it repeats that the guilt of the prisoner Is es-
tablished beyond q peradventure- although
the trial is yet in the future. This may be
Justice, but it doesn't look like it to fair
minded people. Police Gasette notoriety Is
cheap in this country, and We are sorry to
see the Standard exhibiting an inclination to
invest. 1t is a fine looking journal, and
ably edited, but it ought to dispense with
that class Of reporters who impress the reader
with the belief that they are more enterpris-
ing in peeping through keyholes and getting
bold Of private letters than in compiling use
full information.

"Pafnful DefuEcaffon.o

Such are the sentiments Of the
oditor of the Philadelphia Press, upon
learning Of the removal of ono of his
"butties" from office for robbiDg the
government treasury. Hear him in
his wocGul mood:
1t is with very deep regret that the community
will learn this morning Of the new trouble in the
pension agency In this city. Major Calhoun, al
though not a Pennsylranian, has been 50 iayora-
bly, known among us that most persons willingly
discredted the rumors aaoat some time since.
Now that they have eliminated in his removal by
The President, 1t seems impossible to gainsay their
truth, and the fact .hat they will give pain to
others than himself is strong testimony to his
previous standing, The misuse OF public moneys
is becoming common that II seems almost n
trite reflection to urge home the lesson Of these
painful deialcatlous.
"Painful" reflections What pity
that rogues should continue to pain
the editor of the Press
To our mind the only way to cure
these painful reflections is to turn
the party out OF power which harbors
and breeds them; and then, in the
language of "the government" itself,
'1ct us have peace" and honest men
in Office, and if they turn rogues, too,
like those in position now, turn them
out.
