case of personal dyspepsy that few intelligent
readers will be able to agree with it in pronounc-
iny our inferences to that effect either ''reck-
loss" or inaccurate" So much smoke, (chang-

W s not inspired by the consideration Of person al
griefs, its language, both on Tuesday and We'd
ne sday was as strange as it was uncalled for. 1t
implicitly asserted popular censure OF Major
Lofand and Mr.. Pickles for mot bending their
whole energies to GUST from their positions
the whole of the United States officers in this
State declaring it had no doubt that many would
regard their failure to 30 "bend" their whole en-
ergies '.as an exhibition of cowardice Or treach-
cry" Further, it charged by insinuation. that
they had been obliged, in order not to make this
tremendous effort, to break their promises and
forfeit their word
Now what had all this to do with the general
question of good or bad appointments What
public business is it what political promises are
made, and what kept Why did Eoery Eoeling

should not feel warm desire for his success
Tlat would have besn both natural and proper.
Slch protestations Of mo interest" cannot be
accepted, in the face of the known facts.
No one would probably % sneer at the nom

and condemn them for doing or not doing acts
which they had performed Or omitted in their
party relations, upon the exercise of their own
discretion that finally, it should make its dis
