GRANTS third term advocates have
lust been reinforced from quarter that
cannot fail to oinspire them with renewed
yigor and hope of ultimate success. The
Duke of Argyll, Scotland, who is the
father of the Marquis of Lorne, the SON
in-law Of Queen Victoria, and now
Eicerov of Canada. was in New York
last week on his return to Scotland from
a visit to his son. On the deck Of Il
steamer about to sail, and in the pres
ence of a party of aristocratic snobs of
American birth, but of foreign sympa-
thies, this ducal head of the house of
Campbell is reported to have said among
other things:
For myself. 1 do not think that the peo-
pie of the United States can possibly do bet

the American people by advising them
to invest Grant with the dictatorship for

visits his son in Canada, as he says he
intends doing, but which will not proba-

and was tired of being fugitive and wanted to

shop, stayed there couple Of years when one
day he saw man from his old home This so

again. Here he stayed two or three years, but

was again frightened out of town and became a
wanderer through the far West for several years
Finally the impulse to revisit the place who're he
committed his crime came over HIM so strongly
that he returnedlto the neighborhood, though he

July. or more than a month earlier,
and since then there has been daily
Increase in the number of cases. All or
nearly all who could do so have already
left the city. and business of every de-
scription is virtually suspended. Only
those us Il general rule who are too poor
to get away are left in the doomed city.
The first case ON the 10th. as before
stated, was that of a man who, it IS said
commenced wearing a coat that belong
ed to another man who had died OF the
disease last summer. This would seem
enectuulIy to dispose of the freeZing-out
theory. It is sad to contemplate the
future of Memphis. and it may be of the

ON the same day in 1896, the memor-
able 4rh of July. Thomas jefferson, the
author of the Declaration of 1ndepend-
euce and John Adams, its ablest advO-
cate on the floor of the Continental Con-
nrress. both died. the one in Virginia and
the other in Massachusetts. y few days
afterwards a public meeting was held III
the city of New York to give appropriate
expression to the great loss the country
had sustained in the death of two OF her
most hOnored and patriotic sons, ana
Rev. Stephen y. Rowan, the orator OF
the dav. recommended in the course OF
his address that "a copy of the Declara-
tion of independence, elegantly engroSS-
ed on parchment, be transmitted, ere 1t
be too late, to the venerable Charles
Carroll. of CarrolltOn, its sole surviving
signer. to be certified by him and used
by our Common Council ON every sue
ceeding celebration of the 4th of July. "
This suggestion having received the ap-
proval of the Mayor and Common Coun-
ell. Mr.. Rowan, in company with Rev.
Carroll at his home in Maryland on the
ID of August, 1926, exactly fifty years to
a day after he had signed the great
charter of American liberty. Mr.. Car
roll, then 80 years of age, received his
visitors with great warmth of feeling,
and after they had made known the OBJ
iect of their mission and presented to
him quarto volume containing the De
claration of Independence, executed in
the neatest style of penmanship, he ap-
+ pended to it his certificate of approba-
. tion. This copy of the Declaration,
with Mr.. Carroll's certificate, is care
I fully preserved in the library of the City
/ Hall, New York, and is used as original
" designed on every celebration of the
4th of July. Following is the certificate
written by the venerable patriot. Charles
Carroll. of CarrOlltOn, the ministers
named therein being the witnesses:

THE Commissioner of Pensions is au thor

summary of the operations in that branch of
the service during the last fiscal year:
As many .4s5 cases were investigated Pen
sioners 1873 In number were dropped from the rolls
The monthly rates of fty-five others were reduced

criminal offences were discovered. only I29 Of
which, however, could be prosecuted, for the rea-
son that the others were barred by the statute of
limitation. OF the 129 still subject to prosecution
fOrty-seven were committed by claim agents. The
appropriation for the expenses of these investiga-

money during the year; but what has it es-

THAT the maintenance inviOlatc of the
rights of the States, and especially the right
of each State to order and control its own
domestic institutions according to its own
judgment exclusively, is essential to that
balance of power on which the perfection
and endurance of our political fabric depends;
and we denounce the lawless invasion by
armed force of the soil of any State or Ter
ritOry. no matter Jrldt the pretert, as among
the 5TuSSeSt of crimes. "
In view of Republican speeches and
Republican votes in Congress during the
late session on the question of military
interference by the government with
elections, the acreage Republican, after
having read the above paragraph. would
not hesitate TO ascribe to it democratic
origin, since it proclaims the same doc
trine advocated 10y the Democrats ever
since the days of jefferson. And yet it
is one of the resolutions of the platform
adopted 10y the Republican national con-
yen.iou at Chicago in 1850, when Abra-
ham Lincoln was nominated for Presi-
dent. Grant, however, during his two
terms taught the Republican party that
the bayonet was the most effective i'll
strument III coercing State Legislatures
into submission to unlawful authority,
as well rs in protecting Governors of
States in their usurpatiouS, and the
leaders of that party at the extra session
claimed that the only salvation for the
ills of the country was the free use of
the strong arm Of military power in af-
fairs which are peculiarly the subject Of
state control.
