THE shareholders of the Centennial
Exposition Company have employed an
immense lobby to secure the passage of
an act refunding to them the 800, 900
loaned by the United States to aid in or
ganizing the exposition. A third of the
money in case Of Success will be given
the lobby. There is no good reason Why
this donation should be made to the
stockholders. 1t was an enterprise in
which they hoped to realize something
II the government derived any advantage
indirectly from the exposition, that is no
reason why such vast sum should be
given the stock holders.

THERE is something touching in the
filial affection of De Young. Charles
purchased a house for his mother and
had it fitted up in elaborate style, al
though he himself lodged in plain
room. Mrs. De Young had a very warm
affection for her son, and he carefully
kept these newspapers from her sight, in
which her reputation was attacked.
When the De Youngs had trouble with
Naphthaly and shots were exchanged,
De Young's paper gave an account of the
affair. But paper was struck off fegu-
larly in which no reference was made to
the trouble and delivered to Mrs. De
Young.

Tine Sprague- Conkhng scandal ''that
for space did fall has now broken out
with redoubled fury. Mrs. Sprague ran
away from Canonehet last Sunday, and
there are various reports as to the cause,
some insisting that Sprague was very
ymkind in his treatment of her, keep
ing her confined and denying her inter
course with her friends; that letters
aud kilograms addressed to his wife were
read by him before being delivered to
her. Others insist that Gov. Spraeue
treated her very kindly and that 1t is
Ms. Sprague's inherent badness that
prompted the runaway. She took three
of the children with her leaving one TO
the father. A divorce suit Will now be
probably instituted, certainly q suit for
tie recovery Of the children.

Manufacturers in Massachusetts will
hardly dare again practice the same kind
of intimidation IN working against Butler
that they did last fall. Workmen were

ENGLISH journals quote with satisfac-
ton the assertion of the New York Her
aid that the American people will not
extend much aid to the Irish in their
struggle against the landlords. The
Herald is previously in error The gen.
erous sympathy and substantial aid given
by Americans generally is glad sur
prise to Irishmen everywhere. 1t is
highly probable that before the winter
terminates America must send aid to the
Irish people, not in the direction OF agi-
tation but to save them from starvation.
The potato crop Is almost failure. Peat
has been greatly injured by the rains
and the tenant will find it not only i'm
possible to pay the rent, but difficult to
find the necessaries of life. The English
government has shown how Indifferent it
can be to Irish famine. The United States
in AS was prompt in extending aid and
during the coming year if the emergency
requires it their charity will be equally
prompt. But in case famine should
again invade Irish homes there are
enough of kin in this country to contrib
ate aid quietly and help the suffering.
The Irishman is naturally generous and
impulsive and seldom turns aside from
suffering. He should be the first to feel
for the sutferings of his unfortunate
countrymen and not wait until suffering
comes that would appeal even to miser.

NOTHING will be done with national
finance until after the holidays. 1t was
the genral opinion that successful re-
sumption would end all further efforts at
changing or improving the currency of
the country. But it is the leading cues
ton in congress just at present. Who
knows what good the southern brigadiers
might have done by claiming the entire
attention of congressman. While re-
publicans We're in Imagination charging
upon hosts of rebels and saving the
union by patriotic speeches the finances
of the country were adjusting themselves.
Now the elections are over and the ex-
element of the presidential contest is
not yet strong enough to conjure up Wis
ions of southern outrage. Jim Blaine is
the only hope of the country, now that
Zach Chandler is gathered to his fathers.
Let Jim mount his Rozinante and charge
upon the south. In the gathering of the
clans for the attack and defense, france
will be left to much needed neglect.

SENATOR VOORHEES, has introduced q
bill to pay all soldiers the difference in
value between gold and greenbacks at
the time they received the latter for
serving the government. 1t is fully as
proper, nay more SO than, to do this for
the man who risked his life for the gov
eminent as it is to do it for the man who
risked his shekels. The government
promised to pay its soldiers SO many dol
lars and paid them in deprecated cur
rency. If the currency was not good
enough for the bondholders it was not
good enough for the soldiers. But re-

though when the bondholders were to be
the benifciaries they never tired of
speaking of the nations faith. Which

We this week publish the prospectus
OF the Springfield Republican and give
1t the most cordial endorsement, We
rank the Republican among the best
papers III the United States and our
opinion is formed from acquaintance
with the journal. Many papers claim to
be independent but not neutral; the Re
publican is the only paper we know of
whose practice is consistent with its pro,
fessions in this respect. 1t is the clean,
est and most impartial paper published.
Lit gives the news III the most concise
form and its editorials are models. We
give the Republican this notice for the
benefit of our readers. If you want..a
paper published in any of the Atlantic
states subscribe for the Republican and
you will never regret the choice made.

The difference in partisanship between
the members of the democratic and of
the republican party in matters affecting
the public welfare is shown in the unan.
imous confirmation of McCrary and
Ramsey. During the last session of
congress the republicans used the presi.
dent to block ali legislation which was
distasteful to them in party sense and
50 determined were they in their opposi-
ton that an extra session was made nee.
essary. Then they sought 'to make
their evil good and told the people the
democrats did it with their little Ratchet
Rumor says McCrary was active in pre-
pari1g veto messages, but the democrats
of the senate did not abuse their power
as did Hayes in the matter of th appro-
priation ILLS. The democrats might
nave said "Give us democratic nomin.
alton or no Judge with as much pro-
priety as Hayes said..by his acts: Give
rs supervisors and deputy marshals or
nc appropriations.
