General Grant is reported as max

General Grant is reported as max
ing brilliant speech to the Ouch at
Amsterdam. Among other things, he
said "that there was plenty Of room in
the United States for good Dutchmen,
and they could become citizens in five
years, and jocularly said they could
vote earlier if they preferred the Dem
ocratic ticket" This attempt to throw
odium upon the majority of the voters
Of the country he is part representing,
may pass for Grant wit, but it lacks
truth as much as dignity. The proven
frauds upon the ballot are all upon
the other side. He is also quoted as
saying if he thought he would be TAX
en- up as candidate for third term,
he would stay abroad. This might go
down with a Holland Burgomaster,
but it don't fool anybody on this side
of the water.

Here are two laborers starting out
with nothing but their natural powers
Of body and mind. They each carp
a dollar and half day. One de
clares that the wages are not more
than barely sufficient to subsist on,
and therefore spends it as fast as he
makes it, and probably runs in debt
besides for beer, tobacco and other
luxuries which he insists on having.
The other denies himself the luxuries,
and thereby saves fifty cents day
out of his earnings. Wages unspent
are capital and the laborer is accumu-
lating capital at the rate of fifty cents
a day, or one hundred and fifty dol
lars year, while his fellow is con-
Stunning all his earnings in comforts
which he might get along without. In
ten years they are thirty years old,
and one has small shop or factory
of his own, bought and paid for with
the savings from his wages, while the
other has nothing at all, and perhaps
is hundred dollars in debt. Now
according to the doctrine at the bot
tom of the late strike, the shiftless
laborer, who is a laborer still, has a
right to demand an equal share of
the property of his fellow, who from
being laborer, has become propri-
etor and an employer of laborers-a
capitalist, if you will. Is there any
justice in such demand? The one
had no advantage over the other;
both started as workingmen, and both
might have become property holders
by pursuing the same path Of frugal
ity and selftlenial.

The Tramp in a New Role.

The ubiquitous tramp.appeared in
a new role near Winchester, ILL.,, a
few days since. The occasion was q
picnic; the tables had been spread; a
bsnquet of good things was prepared,
the coffee steaming and all hands
were facilitating themselves over the
anticipated pleasures. AS if by mag
ic, horde of tranlps came suddenly
from their copcealment in the bushes
nearby took possession of the viands
and filled themselves in full view OF
the astonished picnicers. After taxi
ing good care to leave nothing re-
main, the tramps marched off in tri-
umpb. The feelings of the picnicers

Committee. In this matter Blaine
will really control the Republican
portion Of the Committee and dictate
the report ofits Republican members.
1t seems to me that regularly pub
lishcd report Of the proceedings Of
the Committee would be a good thing,
and enable Members Of Congress as
well as the people at large to deter
mine what to do when Congress meets.
There was manifest at the last ses-
sion of Congress disposition to dis
courage the presentation Of claims
for Pensions by soldiers Of the late
war and their heirs. The legislation
on the subject can bear no other con-
struction, and the Commissioner of
Pensions, in communication of q
few days since to the Secretary of the
Interior, claims to have originated
the legislation and very plainly and
pointedly commends it. There are
two views to take Of this. One is that
the Radical party is tired Of paying
what it promised to the soldiers and
their representatives The other is
that the soldiers and their represen-
tatives are presenting fraudulent
claims to such an extent as to make
the Pension list q mere record of frauds.
The Commissioners insinuates that the
latter is the fact
In common with fellow sufferers
elsewhere we are rejoicing in the relief
brought with the retreating mercury.
Our losses have not been severe and
those that occurred were among the in
temperate, the very young and the
chronic invalids. Rex.

25th of July, the following resolution
was unanimously adopted:
RESOLVED, That we endorse Judge
A. B. Jennings course, and recon-
mend his election for Judge Of the
Second Judicial Circuit of West Vir-
ginia.
The Wetzel County Democratic
Convention also passed resolution
endorsing Judge Fleming and in
structing Mr.. Wiley to cast their vote
for him in the Judicial Convention.
The Nominating Convention for this
Judicial District is only a matter of
form as Judge Jennings nomination
is a foregone conclusion. He is the
right man in the right place.

As will be seen by consulting an
other column the Democratic County
Convention held here last Saturday
endorsed Hon. B. T. Martin. We
think this sentiment prevails through
out this District. In substance these
ENDORSEMENTS mean that the people of
the second District intend to return
him to his seat in Congress. Hon.
c. j. Faulkner has been spoken Of as
q probable candidate, but he declares
himself off, and now we do not know
the man who would stand the ghost
of chance in opposition to Mr.. Mar
tin. He has served his constituents
with fidelity and efficiency seldom
equalled and his experience gives him
an advantage that it would be utter
ly impossible for a new man to have.
The Keyser Convention will be unit
in favor of Mr.. Martin denomination.
1t will be very short-sighted if it is
not.

There are in the State of Nebraska

There are in the State of Nebraska
alone, over forty-six and half mil
lions of acres of land still unimprov-
ed, while less than four million acres
are under cultivation. Even with
this small proportion improved, the
State raised S0,000,000 bushels OF
corn and 100000 bushels of wheat.
If one hundred thousand idle work
ingmen with their families were to set
to work on the unimproved and unoc.
cupied lands of Nebraska, the labor
problem would be nearer being solved
than it has been since the troubles
commenced.

Oneby one, without making enough
noise to attract general attention, the
Louisiana scamps are dropping into
their soft places under the Hayes adj
ministration, and it is quite remark
able that Secretary Sherman's depart
ment should so often prove their rest
and reward. Marks having had time
enough to get out of sight, it is an
nounced in a matter-of -course way
that Mr.. A. B. Levisee, one of the
Hayes electors, and the one who came
SO near being bribed to vote for Til
den, has been appointed an internal
revenue agent and given rowing com
mission. Levisee has been out in the
cold long while, and might have
been overlooked entirely if he had
not told such nice story to the Potter
committee. Mr. Sherman clings to
the old-fashion notion that the laborer
Is worthy Of his hire. Now let us see
what ofiicc-holders the Atlantic City
session Of the committee will give
III -. Times.
