Mr.. Shellabarger, Republican Congress
man from Ohio, allowed the announce
ment to so forth that he had turned in his
extra pay, and he was making some pro
press as Il candidate for the United States
Senate, when it was discovered that he
had drawn the money and secretlyinvested
it in bank stock. And this is all the reas-
on he could give That refusing the pay
would be an act of vulgar demagoguery,
with an imputation that his comrades were
thieves Somuch for the late Hon Sam
ucl Shellabarger, nt So. The Columbus
lOhio State journal says
This case is peculiarly unpleasant, not to
say distressing as it places all Mr. Shella-
bargors friends in the position Of having
based high toned moral sentiments upon 4
false foundation. We tender shame faced
apologies to all the honorable salary grab
bers whom we have sought tohumiliate by
holding up the bright and shining example
