The New York World is ''grievously
impressed with suspicion that the grand
national centennial exhibition of 1876 is
but little better than grab" and it cites
these fac's in support of its suspicion:
"The Philadelphia City Council appro-
pristed $4,000 ON the 4th of November
last to defray the expenses of the Centen-
NAL Commission, and on the lst instant
$4,000, of the amount had been spent. In
some cases centennial officials had as much
as $500 salary per week. The PennsylVa-
mia Legislature having added S25O,OOO to
the municipal donation the Commission
has $500, 900 cash TO start on, but al the
rate of expense shown will swallow up that
sum and be $11S,000 in debt by the time
the 4th of July, 1916, arrives. A little
more patriotism and little less money are
.edeG>in this thing"

Coneress:

b "There can be DO doubt but the indorse-
ment of any of the Credit Mobilier specula-
tors and back-pay grsbbers would prove not
only damaging TO the parties immediately
interested, by making them the targets for
all manner discharges of corruption; but
would also greatly diminish the strength of
the party. If the Republican party would
maintain its ascendancy, it must repudiste
even the semblance of corruption, to say
nothing of positive guilt" TZgaEq

Il appears. an effort is TO be made to gal
vanise Credit MobiIier CoIfsx and get him
back into public life. The Baltimore
American Of the 2ist inst, in an editorial
expressing the hope that Colfax will allow
himself to be nominated for Congress In
the South Bend (Indiana) district con
cludes IS follows:
"Mr. Colfax is one of those men whom
we can not spare from public life. An in
telligent, conscientious and dilgent appli-
cation to public affairs entities him to
position that be should accept for the sake
of the country, and there is the other con-
sideratioh that it would be the most crush
ing reply to the ISLANDERS which have been
heaped upon him. BE owes it to himself
to hold out his hand TO this vindication
which it offered him. We earnestly hope
that be will permit himself to be returned
by bis district by the largest majority it has
ever given"

thusiastic 40 admirer ofthe Credit Mobilier
disciple. That paper says, with particular
reference to Col!ax, for it appears to be un-
