they carried their pointand left the cowardl .ce
and treachery Of the Sun 50 conspicuous That
they will never be forgiven for It, The rnean-
ness Of the Sun Is the most conspicuous thing
connected with the history Of the last presi-
Dental election. The greatness Of The object
to be obtained and the audacity with which
the fraud was carried out, In % measure re-
deem Hayes from contempt. But the poor,
pitiful, creeping, craven cowardice Of the Sun
ia the day when the courage Of poodle
would have saved the nations honor coupled
with the staggering outside 1t now affects, is
the meanest thing In American history. 1t Is
dirtier than the lie Grant told Andy Johnson

The Boston police and courts have decided
that, Kissing In theatre in reasonable and
tlecorous manner to express dissent and dis
approval, is perfectly legitimate. Ponce OIL
GERS have therefore been instructed not TO IN
terfere with these Kisses in future even at
the request OF theatrical managers or thelr
agents. II the system proves SUCCESSFUL Ia
Boston, it will doubtless spread to all Amer1-
ran cities. American audiences have less
ssfreedom" in expressing disapproval than
those Of any country on the globe; II they
are expected to applaud everything they see,
and are not allowed to express their disgust
for any insult to intelligence or decency. Line
stage has been suffering so much OF late 1of
lack of patronage, that it will very probably
welcome this change, If it has the effect az
some predict it will, of shelving poor actors
and preventing bad plays.

Indian Agent Livingstone is sustaining the

which he obtained the opportunity OF rob~

I'M opportunity Of which he promptly availed
himself to the tune Of some $4,000, Now,
that his steals have been discovered, he de-
family inquiries what the government pro-
noses to do about 1t. He claims that the ol1l-
Gals at Yankton all belong to him, and that
no Yankton jury can ever be MADE 10 take

any statutes based on the moral law which

The New York SIN, which has constituted
itself chief organ Of Butler, has already
given that distinguished statesman 43,2oo
votes-on paper. Petitions have been in cir
c,,lation in all the chief towns OF the Bay
State requesting the Essex patriot to be a
candidate for Governor; $4,000 signatures
were received in Boston Alone and 1000 more
from that city are confidently counted on.
Butler will not be satisfied with less than
10000 similar prayers to him to enter the gu
bernatorial canvass. He feels confident OF
receiving these and has already announced
his intention to run as the peoples candidate
with a reform platform, without going
through the formality Of being nominated by
a convention.

The Mortmart vs.. Mortmard case shows
how much of republic France is. The
Mortmarts are the oldest family in France,
and can trace their origin farther back than
the Bourbons or Montmorencies. The Mort
mards, on the other hand, are new family
that is cannot go farther back than 1850.
They have, however, in the past century made
an enviable name for themselves, and have
served with distinction in the army and in
civil life. A number of them have gained the
cross Of the Legion of Honor, and all have
won the respect Of their fellow-citizens. Some
wears ago they dropped the ''d' and began to
spell their name with st" like their more
aristocratic countrynlen, the Mortmarts.
The latter objected to this-asserted that
their way of spelling the name with 't''
was their peculiar property, and that no one
had a right to adopt this spelling. They
begged, therefore, for an order compelling
the plebeian Mortmards to return to the I'd,
A republican court has granted this order

The Sun thinks that Hayes would not nave
gone into the White House II the Louisiana
congressman had not withdrawn their oppo-
sition to the Electoral Commissions count.
The Su,, has wonderful idea Of the omnipo-
tence of Louisiana Congressman. we Wtuld
not say word to disparage our able delega-
tion In Congress, but this is cutting it a little
too thick. Yet candor compels us to confess
that our Congressman wanted to show light
for Tflden, but the San oyerawed them by
telling them plainly that the business men OF
the country would not stand Discrimination.
Our Congressman then concluded to take care
