prSpFcTtBLE GO-BETUEEys

II is not a new thing to find persons of so
called respectable standing acting as go-he-
t,gccns for thieves and burglars, bat the dis
coycry is never pleasant one. From the nature
of the circumstances, the person selected for
this office is almost necessarily lawyer. The
Stewart cravc-robhing ease furnished a notable
example Of this. The recent jcwcly- store
burglary in Brooklyn, which was easily effected
in spite of the fact that the store WAS brightly
lighted has Just furnished another, which Il
as,nrcdly legitimate subject of public dis
cuSsion.
It,ccms that the victim. VI. Wise, lately offered
a reward, upon the advice of the police, for the
return of the property, "no questions to be
asked Thcrcupon person said to be law
YER and who, Mr. Wise states, " stands well
in the community" appeared to negotiate for
the return of the property. Mr.. Wise Was IN
duccd to double his reward under the threat
that in twenty -four hours the property would
be- forever beyond his reach if he did not ac-
cent these terms. The money WAS paid the
stolen goods were returned through IN express
office. with the exception of some minor ar
ticlcs which it seems had been distributed 10y
the thieves among their friends, and which, they
gave the most polite assurances, would bc
promptly forthcoming and the eo-bctwccn will
no doubt continue 10 stand well i'm the cOmmu-
nity." The whole process Of compromising the
felony seems to have been conducted in the most
dignificd and exemplary manner, and with great
consideration for the feelings of the gentlemen
who committed the mOmcntlry lndi>creuon oi
stealing the goods.

excepting that the assent of the holder 10 a
lower rate of interest is stamped thereon al
notification to any who may wish to buy IT.
The only change that the Secretary has made
ia to obtain this agreement from the holders
in connection with their request that payment
should be postponed
A trustee, who must be quite Ignorant OF MS
duties and of the plan of the Treasury wants
tn know what he can do if the Treasury
should see fit to pay off his extended bond be-
fore July 1. A bond not extended, he says
would then draw principal and per cent IN
terest while a bond extended would then
draw only principal and GIG per cent interest.
Evidently he does not know that the Treasury
offers TO prepay interest at the old rate up to
the LIST of July on all bonds that may be ex-
tended. If he requests extension, he gets per
cent to July / at once, and the holder OF the
non-extended bonds can get no more, then or
afterward But, after July l, the non-extended
bond, having been called in for payment, viii
draw no interest while the extended bond, II
called Mt any later date, would draw interest
from july at the new rate. The best proof
that all these qubbles and blunders have little
weight in the minds of sensible men Is the
fact that very large proportion Of the hold
ers of six per cents voluntarily ash that pay
ment of them be deferred.

ton of officers, and that the old officers should
remain in place because there is not a majority
without him for putting them out
This is the latest Democratic argument
First we were told that the proposed change
sbould not be made now because this is not a
regular session, and that no resistance would
be made to the election of new officers II inc
Republicans would let the matter go over until
next December. Now a claim of parliament
arv right is set up which will be just rs valid
next winter as now The truth is, however,
there il no validity in it. The Vice President
ia given by the Constitution a casting vote IN
cases where tie occurs in the Senate for the
very purpose of determining such controVer-
sizes "a this. In case of an even division his
single voice can pass measures OF legislation
affecting the interests of every citizen OF the
limited States. How absurd, then, is It to
claim that he has no right to vote on the tn
fling matter of changing a few clerks and
doOrkeepcrs
The argument only needs to be stated to re-
flute itself 1t is on par with all the other
interpretations of the Constitution we have
had from the Democratic party during the past
quarter of a century. Boiled down it amounts
to this: Thirty eight Senators without the Vice
President count for more than thirty-eght
Senators with the Vice President. The thirty
eight, plus the presiding officer Of the body,
are not to have the power to appoint single
messenger or page, but the other thirty eight
are TO have full control. Time was that when
the brains were out Of a party it got under
the sod. The Democratic party has long sur
vivcd its brains II lives on its spleen and its
capacious stomach for political plumber.

4 RR1LNLESS PARTY.l

The Senate is composed of rs members.
According to the Democratic statement of the
present controversy 80 Senators are i'll favor
of electing new officers for the body and 80
are opposed. This statement makes no account
of the fact that David Davis announced sew
eral weeks ago that inasmuch as the Republic
cans had the committee organizations he should
vote to give them control of the Offices Per-
haps the great fence-straddler has changed
his position since he made that announce
ment. His way of showing his indepen-
dcnce is by nimbly vaulting from one side
to the other, and it is never quite certain where
he stands. Surprising him to have lcaped back
into the Democratic corral, the Senate is di-
vded exactly in the middle on the question of
changing its officers. OF course the Vice-Pres-
ident has the casting vote, and he being a
Republican, the Republican Senators are right
in claiming that, on this question, they COM
mand a majority in the body. But the Dem
ocrats assert that the Vice-PTesidcnt ought not
to vote Oh such question US that Of the cleo
