PITH OF THE PRESS.

Washington Post Uem.); Cincinnati
Aldermen make the city pay their carriage
hire when they attend funerals. This will
hasten the coming of their own political
funerals.
Philadelphia Press Rep,); 1t is stated
that eighty-live imitation journals have sus-
pended since the fall elections. Honest
money Journals, on the contrary, are I'M
usually prosperous.
indianapolis Journal (Rep.); In Iowa
the Democrat and Greenback combination |
is called ''the succo ash party" The refer
ence, of course, is to the mixed corn-and- |
bean character Of the combination. ltls
altogether too good a name for such
mess.
New York Star Dem.): 1t seems good
deal like favoritism to give Col. Fred
Grant wears leave of absence to go on
iunketing tour with his papa but if there
| is to be ain Indian war next spring, perhaps
the departrtent ought to respect the solicit
tude of Fred.'s parents and get hlm out OF
harms way.
| New York Sun (Dem.): John Sherman
posed before knot of gentlemen the other
night as the guardian of the national honor;
but we can assure him that Congress ana
1.-THE people will exact from him very
!, much clearer and more satisfactory account
of his stewardship than he has given.
Pittsburg Telegraph Qnd): It's to be
regret ed that Secretary Sherman thought
it necessary to say, as a correspondent re-
ports him as saying, that he didn't care q
blank for the First National Bank of New
York His explanation has clearly con-
futed the charges of Mr.. Hewitt, and pro-
fanity was not necessary to emphasize MS
innocence.
Chicago News Qnd): The old argument
"Don't punish him-don't do it, Ii you
, have no respect for him, remember that he
, has a wife and chldren'-has saved many
, an American scoundrel. 1t is no argument
at all! A man who has wife and chlldreh
should so conduct himself as not to bring
: disgrace down upon them. Justice must
+ be done.
{ New York World (Dem.G One OF the
+ features of the sessions of the next Con
j, gress will be the contesting of the seats OF
the Northern Republicans on the ground
u of intimidation. In these matters, nov
: ever our esteemed Republican coiltempo
y raries will not take the absorbing and tero
oious interest -ma1ifes ed in Southern
y "bulldozing."
II New York Times (Rep): Whatever
g claims Mr. Bayard may have on the conn
Is dence of his party, these are, III one regard
= Of capital importance. He has been faith
es fnl among the faithess found" on the vita
"a question of finance, and the adoption OF hi
~ name bv the Democrats in lSSO would g
al far toward taking the currency questlo
to ont of politics, and in the right way.
in Utica Observer (Dem.): More than tw
re wears AGO Mr.. Tiden, in his letter acceptin
ba the Democratic nomination for the Pres
&c dency, pointed out that the fixing OF Ga
:: for resumption was hndrance rathe
u than an aid to the act ITSELF lime n'
abundantly vndlcaled the WISDOM N Oh !, n
nosirion. If the first of January, 1888, ma
use not been specified, specie payments mlSl
ok have been resumed in August or earlier
IL st. Paul Pioneer Press (Ind.): The II
ke publicans in Congress ard the Republic9
,,o nrcss of the country exhibit an entire wi
~ inoness to let the cipher business rema
US inst as it is. Their listless attitude nils IL
he democratic camp with perpleXlty and {
rs yided counsels. They perceive that th'

ere Springfield Republican Qnd.): 1t mar
to a long step forward when Southern Den
.bo Gratis reach the point Of nominating al
electing "niggers' to the Legislature. '
pe have already called attention to the IA
ing that no less than six of the South CaroIl
,de Represen, ,atives are coloreu ,"@mocrats a
avn now comes the news from Texas that !.
CAV new Legislature of that State contains Fl
Tor black men elected on the Democra
rill ticket. The color line can't stand this sc
o+- of thing great Whlle.
an New York Tribune (Rep. y Senator Lam
~ remarked in the opening of his unfortunt
oiu replv to Blaine that if the latter would p
III nose a scheme for the Advancement of &c
in cation in the South, every Democrat wou
bo has on 10 support it. THAT is in the line
arpument habiually adopted by Southe
my statesmen. They object to anything i
his interference, bat they are heart and soul
ad- favor of any scheme which tends to lmprt
M. the South at the National expense. IL
he negro can be educated at the expense OF
pom Government the South will consent to
nall Improvement, but when the South und
takes to educate him with club, tn
lia. must be no interference.
olu New Haven Register (Dem.): While B
tne ard is able and brilliant he is also youn
his too young to be President-and he h
from Southern State. Bayard is part
larly obnoxious to the Greenback De-
trio Gratis, and for that reason is not safe {
ears didate. Seymour has made no recent
g., ord on the subject. He is a Democrat {
loi easily chief ofthe party. No Democrat
. IL. object with reason to supporting him.. /
Itisb ard contains the making of great De
tho cratic leader and statesman. But !
Viie mour is a great Democr
ator leader and statesman. He occuI
hich a commanding political situation.
.vo,s York must be carried to elect Democr
'"l' President True, he was defeated once,
yet he had no chance of election. With
vent South in sl,ackles Seymour was ha
o1oo capped. With the South free. he is
