From the Kansas City journal of Commerce
And now it comes out that gauger, a
orCtcgc OF x-Senator Schurz, and who was
t ansported from St. Louis to New York to
Civ him . place. turns out very crooked
operator in crooked fluids. Now this
fact does not at all implicatc Mr.. Schurz in
anything wrong, but it does teach one thing
that man may be deceived in selecting men,
without being q criminal. And it does teach
another thing that Senator Schurz should
treat the President as in this case he desires
to be treated himself, and as we treat him.
If Mr.. Schurz, out of half dozen men Sc
lccted from his personal recommendation and
knowledge, cannot get each an honest man,
how can General Grant, who has to appoint
thousands on other peoples recommendation,
be expected to have no black sheep put upon
him:
The time for the whole truth in regard TO
st. Louis appointments will soon come. Mr..
SchurZ knows, Others know, that the President
did not overrule the remonstrances of himself
and others because of individual preference for
the appointments made. but because of more
influential and personally trusted Iecommenda-
tionS in their favor.
Yet the President has had to bear all the
censuTe and all tie abuse. and upon an as
sumption of fact that had no foundation what
ever. 1t is due from those who criticise his
action and complain of it, who have full
knowledge of the facts, to state the whole
case. They do not do this, and to that extent
show their willingness TO iniure him at the cost
of fairness and common justice.
How would it look for the opponents of Mr..
SchurZ TO attempt to fasten unworthy motives
or moral completely upon him because this man
whom he favored turns out TO be a rascal!
Nothing could be more unfair, yet we are
obliged to say that has been exactly the course
pursued toward General Grant

Meannets of Carl SchurZ.

The Kansas City journal Of Commerce., ed
tied by cx-Congressman Il. 7. Van Horn, one
of the truest Republicans in the country, says
that carl Schurz has written an open letter
to say that he does not believe the President
knew anything about the whisky ring-that
it is impossible the incumbent of the Pres;-
DENTAL Office could be guilty OF pecuniary cor
ruption. The ineXpressible meanncss Of this
letter lies in the fact of the suggestion itself.
1t is the refinement Of hypocrisy and hate to
suggest a thing TO another's injury, merely to
say it cannot be. And the next meanest thing
in his letter is to retail the stories he heard in
foreign travel TO the discredit of his country.
No man has had half the power to poison Ger.
man opinion against the American people aud
the administration Of its Government than
Carl Schurz, and no man has tried so hard to
do it. Now he comes back from Europe and
retails the opinion he himself created, as that
entertained of his adopted country-rcHecting
back the ISLANDERS he himself sent across the
water. more discreditable miSsive than
this open letter has not issued from a public
man for many years. But its malice has
neutralizcd the cunning of its inception. Mr.
Schurz has damaged his own reputation most
seriously in the estimation ofevery gentleman"

THE New York World is exceedingly
anxious to embroil the Republican
party in a quarrel with the Catholics
With this object in view it describes Mr.
cx-Spcaker Blaine as a Republican leader,
which he undoubtedly is; but insin-
yates that he is an apostatc CItholic 1t
then proceeds TO bring forward General
Sherman, under the obnoxious name Of
"Tecumseh Sherman, as possible Re-
publican candidate for President, and shows
that he, too, is connected by marriage with
an excellent Catholic family. 1t quotes
from General Sherman: My creed is the
CONSTITUTION of the United States and the
"Ten Commandments and adds, eve

Both Mr. Blaine and General Sherman will
undoubtedly feel thankful to the World for
these ill-natured illusions. They will do
them no harm; but may serve to cali atten-
ton TO the fact that mans religion does
not always interfere with his duty as a pa
triotic citizen.

II WILL BE SEEN 10y our special dispatch
from New Orleans that the Democratic
State convention, held there a few days
since, was sham gotten up by the Ban

influence on the Democratic House of Rep

fectly clear that the Democratic organiza-
ton there is under the control of the des-
peraGoes who were so fifty denounced by
General Sheridan as ''Banditti men who

THE New York World calls particular
attention TO the fact that the Texas delega-
ticn in the House will 'be compelled to
vote against reduction of the army be-
CAUSE the people of Texas claim that there
is not suficien: force in the army now to
protect them from depredations by Mexi-
can bandits. The World, in commenting
on this point, says;
"Of course, therefore, this failure to pro-
tect the Texan frontiers must be charged, not
to the inadequate numbers Of the Federal
army, but to the Indifference with which the
Administration has regarded and still regards
the interests of that part Of the Union. How
is the source of the evil to be corrected by doing
precisely what the Administration desires: So
long as the army is kept larger than il ought
= he for legitimate purposes. the army VIII be
devoted to illegitimate purposes. Men like
Mr.. Reagan, of Texas, ought to be well aware
of this and We doubt not are aware OF it. If
Texas desires TO see justice done TO her in
terests, she must begin by giyi II her help
to measures founded in justice to all her sis
ter States, and to the permanent interests Of
the whole people,
Evidently the World lorgets that not long
ago, when its Texan friends called upon
the Administration to decide between the
respective claims Of Messrs. Coke and Davis
to be Governor of Texas, the result was
favorable TO Coke, the Democratic con-
testanf, and unfavorablc TO Davis, the Re.
publican claimant. "Men like Mr. Reagan,
" of Texas, ought TO be well aware of this,
land We doubt not are aware OF it." Being
aware of If, they will no doubt agree that
the ministration has not always regarded
"the interests Of that part of the Union"
with Indifference. The truth is that the
special pleading of the World in behalf of
a reduction Of the strength of the army is
not founded ia justice, nor in the interests
Of the whole people. 1t is nevertheless
natural that the leading Democratic organ
of the North should appeal to an ex-mem-
Der of the ex-ConfederSte States Cabinet
for support in this matter. We invite the
attention of our Sunday Democratic cotem-
poraries to this subject.
