We have advocated the nomination of
Senator CoNKLINo, but not his election.
While MIR. BLAINE would be far easier
candidate to beat, and is more thoroughly
in harmony with the true inwardness of
the Republican party, such rs GRANT has
made IT, we have preferred the selection
of Mr.. CoNKLINa at Cincinnati, and still
prefer IT,
The nomination of Mr.. BLAINE for Presi-
dent would be n disgrace to the country,
and we have sought TO avert 1t. ROSCOE
CoSKLINo, on the other hand, Is man of
character as well rs OF ability. No job
berry, no corruption, no dealing In gun con-
tracts, no selling Of his influence and his
vote as a member OF Congress for railroad
bonds, has ever been brought to his doors.
Yet, such is his fidelity to his party, that he
has identified himself with Grantism, and
while he thus represents the Republican
organization and system, his nomination
would bring no shame on the country
upon the ground of his personal character

opinion concerning tho important issues Of

WAS vigorously debated. Mr.. BoEHM Of Cincin-

ating apparently as n sort Of side show to the

A recent order Of the United States Court
Of Claims In relation 10 the Hot Springs OF Ar
kansas has created great indignation In that
state. These springs, lfty-seven In number
have acquired much celebrity for their remedial
effects in various disorders, and town OF some
liza inh abtauts has been built up In the narrow
valley Of the creek into which the springs now,
while eight or ten hotels have been built for the
accommodation o. the invads who resort
thither annually by al act passed ia 1892 Con.
gress directed that the Hot Springs with the
four contiguous sections Of land, should be re-
served for the future disposal OF the Govern
ment Of the United States, but since then the
land has been taken up and occupied by settlers
who claim TO have acquired valid titles To the
property In various ways. In 1870 Congress un-
dertook to provide for settling the conflicting
claims to this property, then estimated to be Of
the value Of $l,OOO,OO0, end passed a law giving
the Court OF Claims jurisdiction In the matter
aud providing that II, upon the final bearing Of
any cause provided for IN the net, the court
should find the equitable az well as the legal
title To any OF the lands in controversy to be In
the United states, then the court should be au-
thorlzed to order such lands into the possession
OF a receiver who shall take charge Of and
rent out tho same for the United States
until Congress shall by law direct how the
same shall be disposed OF. Tho Court OF
Claims decided that tho title to the dis
puted property lies In the Government
and, this decision having been sus tanned by the
Supreme Court, the former court has appoi nted
one ALBEIT .. MORGAN OF Massachusetts, re-
ceiver under the act Of 1870 and has ordered
him not only to collect rent for the land, but
has also directed him to collect rent from the
people OF Hot Springs for the use OF all the i'm
proyements which they have made ut their own
expense. and even for the uss OF the water from
the springs. Thus the United States takes pos
session 0f the springs aud the town, directs otl-

zens to pay rent for the houses which they have
built upon what they supposed to be their own
land, and further orders all persons In posses
sion of property affected by this decision to exc
cute and accept from the receiver leases OF
the premises occupied by them, and to give
security for payment Of whatever rent ho IN
prescribe. People in Arkansas believe that there
Is a huge job at the bottom Of this business
They assert that the Court of Claims for years
has been run as a political machine, and claim
that Congress never intended to permit anysuch
sweeping seizure Of improvements as Ia now at
tempted. II it Ia true, as asserted In the Little
Rock Gazette, that MORGAN, the receiver, was
formerly the private secretary Of POWELL CLAY
TON, the carpet-bae Senator from Arkansas,
that fact Is certainly suggestive of ioboery. The
extensive discretionary powers vested In this
receiver would open nne opportunities for one
who should be looking for them.
