Here's libel suit in prospective. The
Rochester cypress asks how ''Shyster Cly-
mer' would sound?
The Boston transcript nominates Richard
Il. Dana, Jr., one of the delegates at large
to the Republican national convention "sub-
ject to the decision of the Upited States Sem
ate."
The New York Herald nominates a new
candidate for the presidency every day. The
last fossil it exhumed was Asa Packer of
Pennsylvania.
The Rochester Whig mentions the de-
parture of large cargo of slate for New
Orleans. Kellogg is beginning, you know, to
figure us the state debt of Louisiana.
Postmaster General Jewell has practical
sense OF the situation. Speaking of the in
vestisations, he is reported as saying: II do
not care how severely they go for us. The
man that can't stand it had better get out Of
the way.'
A Des Moines special says that Blaine is
supported by the majority of the Republicans
in the Iowa House, and that well informed
politicians consider him decidedly ahead in
that state, and most likely to receive its SUBJ
stantia! support at Cincinnati.
Mr.. Robinson gave Mr.. Dana a first class
notice in his New Haven speech. and said he
respects ex-President Woolsey of Yale more
than for anything else because of his "noble
utterance in the cause of our conntry in his
support" As the case now stands, Mr..
Robinson remarked, cit is not Dana on trial,
but the Senate of the United States"
The Hartford Post expresses the hope that
the Connecticut Democrats will send better
men to the Legislature this year than last,
aud adds: Men who will sell out for a five
dollar note, or even oeffr to sell for S25 apiece.
are altogether too cheap for law makes in
Connecticut. We beg them, if they must
send men on the make to choose those who
have self respect enough to demand a respect
able price, and not peddle themselves on the
Market"
They see this thing clearly over the water.
Says the Dundee Advertiser, observing the
reduction by the Senate of the salary of the
President of this great and glorious nation
from 1000 TO $25,OO0: ''This is surely econ.
omy run mad. The president is looked upon
to keep up the dignity OF the nation, and it is
beneath the dignity OF a great nation to
grudge his stipend. This plan of starving the
public service-as recent events 60 to show
does not always turn out to be the hest
