The Inter Ocean oditorlally answers oorre-
apondent who wants to know what is the mean-
ing Of tho word "1nter-ocean'' and who en-
forces his inquiry by saying that thore Is bot
pending GU tho a,,swor. Tho editor replies that
tho word .'Inter" is q Latin proposition signify
ing botweon-anong-and that lnteroceanlo"
moans existing botweon or connecting different
oceans lying between two seas and that Inter-
Ocean Ia tho same thing with the terminal Byl-
lablo cut OF, creating noun from an adjective.
We foar that tho bot cannot be decided In thta
way, for the Latin proposition " intor" " can only
apply to noun iu tho plural, or two nouna in
tho singular. Intor-Oceana would have tho
siguidcation Of lying batwoen two seas, but H.
ter Ocean CAN only moan Aalf.seaa over.

MIR, DAWES AND THE PARTY,

Information from Washington disclosos tho
Consideration produced thoro by Mr. Dawos
speech showing tho actual condition of tho
financial affairs of tho Government and tho d.
rect responsibility Of Congress for that conli-
ton. His exposure Of tho reckless and wasteful
expenditures voted by CongrosB. and the equally
wasteful nannor in which tho expenditures were
made. is rosonted as crimo. As Ia usual In
such cases, tho "party" is outraged. That no
man In any ofloinl position is justified In saying
anything, or doing any acs no mattcr how truth
full and necessary. that Is calculated to e1poso
or injuro the party,-hns long boon recognized
nsparty law. Mr. Dawes hnvtng, aa Chairman
Of Tho Committee Of Ways and Mems,
laid boforo tho country truthful etate-
mont Of the aotual condition Of arairs,
Ia guilty Of an net for which tue party
admits no extenuation. no ID denounced on all
hands, and, to escape tho storm, he has left
Washington for a fortnglt's rest in MueBachu-
eotts. Among those who donounco him, Butler
Ia couspiouously active. OF tho many oxproa-
aionB freely made by Butler, the following aro
quoted and published:
!" Tho Id fool, Dawes" "The ID old Texas
ateer that il cternaly breaking Into somebody ese's
cornfeld." 1.-THE old gray-whiskerod rat that Is try
Ing his best to Hcutlo tho ship In mdocean by gnaw
ing through tho hulIn The cowarlly old dcserter
who tries to mako poople boloyo In his pat1iotlam,
| etc.. etc.
| That tho alternative llas been presented to
Dawes to retraot his speech, to givo = new ver-
sion to hia facts, and clear the party OF all re-
sponHibility, or bo kicked out Of the party is tue
present outlook. We greatly fear that Dlr
Dawes has not tho moral courage to meet thit
proposition as it should DO met. Ho has or
several previous occasions mude manly protest
! against abuses, and then permitted himself tt
bo frightened out OF his opposition. That ht
has tho intelligence aud honesty to discover
frauds and mismanagomcnt, and 10 donounc
them, has frequently boon shown; but he ha
repeatedly shown d lack Of courage in maintain
ing his position, md by yielding to the demand
Of party that ho retract. In his present oflicia
position, he could have the moral support Of th
entire people il no would faco his enemies ant
defy them; but We question whether he can d
this. We fear TINT he will prefer to retain hi
nominal standing in tho party to tho other an
higher poaition Of great statoaman feariessl
performing his duty to his country.

THE EDITOR

A contemporary says IA news
paper and newspaper editor hat
people don't talk about and some
times abuse are rather poor con-
cerns. The men and business that
an editor sometimes tails this du-
ty to defend at risk of making
enemies Of another class are often
the very first toshow ingratitude.
The editor who expects to receive
much charity or gratitude will
soon find out his mistake; but he
should go ahead and say and do
what ne c0nscientiously thinks
right without regard TO frowns or
smiles"

A Jefferson county correspond.
ent Of the Baltimore Gazette says,
"There is a move on hand look
ing to the change Of our County
Court system, against which there
is expressed great dissatisfaction.
1t will be remembered we now
have the old Virginia County Court
system-that is, the magistrates OF
the county in turn comprise the
court, one of whom acts as Presi-
dent. The move is decidedly in
favor Of doing away with this, and
substituting a system Of justice
similar to that now existing in
Berkeley county, and the reason
given is that it is too expensive
and not calculated for the expidi
tious performance of court bust
ness.
The correspondent must be a
"new man, or else lamentably
ignorant of affairs in Berkeley, not
to know thatour people are cursed
with the same county court system
which he says the people of Jeffer-
son arenow soanxious to rid them
selves of
