WHAT TIE PAPERS SAY.
ADVICE TO HARRISON.

ADVICE TO HARRISON.
Cincinnati Commercial, Ind
Now, if Mr.. Harrison has anything in
particular to say, he should speak up
cheerfully and to the point, not with deep
Reluctance" as in the case of Barley, but
promptly and to the point, like Mr.. Marsh.
ADAMS ILL TREATED.
memphis Avalanche, Dem.l
Charles Francis Adams is always can
didste for president, but nobody accuses
him of ever having stolen any thing or in
vested in CROOKED" bonds. Why this par
TALLY toward all the other statesmen?
Nashville American Dem.
1t shows also that there is no room for
the independent" party which nominated
Lsnders some months since, in the ex-
pectstion of forcing the action OF the
and simple against radical usurpation and
corruption.
THE KIND OF MAN TooMBs Is.
Memphis Avalanche, Dem.l
We learn from Georgia paper that Gen.
Toombs called on President Grant during
his late visit to Washington. To men OF
Toombs' stamp there is but a step between
extremes. When Toombs quits holding
the South up by the tail he will make Just
one jump and land in the bosom of North
ern ultraism. That's the way they all do.
THE SCHOOL FUND CUSTOM.
Cincinnati Enquirer, Dem.l
a Republican general assembly of Ohio
has passed q law by which the Israelite,
the Catholic, and the non-orthodox people
generally are to be taxed to support
university in which a particular form of
religious instructions is to be taught a
form in which thew do not believe. Has
the Republican party gone over to the
pope7 Are they In favor of dividing the
school fund among the religious sectsf
THE WORST FORM OF CEsARIsN.
memphis Avalanche, Dem.l
The New York Herald, which started
the agitation over "Cessrism," now earn
estly urges the president to practice it to
the extent of using his official power to
secure Senator Conkling's nomination by
the Cincinnati convention. This would
be practical illustration of one of the
worst forms of "Cesarism."
AN OMISSION BY BLAINE.
The Cincinnati Commercial, Ind.l
We would be glad to believe that Mr..
Blaine had been thorough in this matter,
but, according to our information, there is
an omission that should not be over
looked. We refer to the Joseph B. Stewert
letter, explaining to the officers of the COM
pany his disposition, in the course OF his
services as a Washington lobbyist, OF bonds
Entrusted to him.
REFORM WITHIN THE PARTY.
New York Tribune, Ind.l
Ii the alternative is death or reform,
then, and not till then, shall we see "re-
form within the party" All good citizens
will rejoice to see IL. But no sensible per-
son Will waste praises on managers who
are kicked into deceDcy. Whatever credit
there may be will belong to the voters
who make IL plain that the alternative is
reform or death.
Brookville Democrat, Dem.l
A more acceptable ticket has never been
pres ented to the people of the state, and
one that will carry more strength. 1t is
American poetry in saying that Mr.. AID
rich's poem in the March Atlantic "has the
easy, thorough workmanship which is get

English poetry, with rather more distinct
and solid subject than usual"
GRANT AND THE SECRET SERVICE FUND.
[Chicago Times, Ind.l
The presidents orders for this misappro-
priation of public money were crimes of
the very gravest character. Unless pres
ident is justifisble in robbing the treasury
that is the plain English of ito secure
his own reelection, there is no apparent
posi- bility of justiiying Grants action
in this matter. The committee having the
evidence in hand will doubtless report 1t
soop, with recommendations for appropri-
ate action on the part of the house.
Nashville American, Dem.l
They call him "Old Blue Jeans" over
there. They are organizing "Blue Jeans
Clubs" and "blue jeans" is the campaign
slogan of the Democracy. not only in In
diana, but they are catching the contsgion
over the border in adjacent states. IL Is
healthy honest sound. We shall doubt

is apremonitory symptom of the reeur-
ence OF the old enthusiasm OF the log
Cabin and the Old Hickory campaigns,
when this country was younger and more
virtuous.
THE cARPET-BAGGERs' WORK.
ICincinnati Gazette, Rep.l
The truth is the Republican party in the
Southern states has been broken down.
not by native Republicans. but by the
gang of carpet-bsggers who went there
with commissions, or to seek office for the
purpose of stealing. IL these men had
been called of long ago. the Republican
party of the South would be far stronger
and purer than it is, and the Republfcan
party of the nation would not have. been
demorslized and comparatively helpless,
as it was, in the face OF public opinion
