PRESIDENT GARFIELD said, in re-
Spouse to a colored delegation, the
other day, that being a negro was
neither a bar nor recommendation
to Office. That they must take
their chances with white men, and
fitness must be the test. This is the
correct doctrine, but it strikes us
the republican party is rather late
finding it out.
Syggignoscism is the name given
by DIR. Hammond to that condition
wherein n person is compelled to
agree with another of greater will
power. 1t is a pity to see the great
republican party afflicted with this
terrible disease and agreeing with
little Billy Malone in his repudia-
tion principles.

IT has been remarked that neither
of the Minnesota senator's seem to
take much interest in the attacks on
southern states for the alleged repu-
diation of their debts. We should
think the recent brave and bold
stand taken by Tennessee on this
subject would put an end to all such
unfounded charges.

THE legislator bribery investi-
eating committee did not find the
charge of bribery sustained but it
"disclosed the fact that at least two
members of the house were guilty
of conduct fearfully at variance
with good morals and the rules of
strict propriety." Now let's hear
the report of the Whitaker ear
clipping committee and the coun-
try will be happy.

ONE of the most potent argu.
ments urged by the low-taxers in
opposing the passage of the state

were made receivable for taxes, the
bill could never be altered by future
legislation, and now they cry out,
we and the dear people, will read.

The grounds were purchased in
four lots, from as many different
parties, viz: Mr.. Drane, agent for
Mrs. Johnson, Mr.. Whitfield, A.
Ewing and John Bailey, (colOred).
For the Whitfield, Ewing and Bal
ley lots cash was paid, amounting
to $3.50; but the Drane lot was
purchased, on five years time, for
81, 500, with interest from the date
of purchase. By adding the third
years interest, which IS now near
ly due, to the cost of this lot, and
then adding both principal and in
terest to the 1880 named, we have,
as the actual cost of the grounds,
the sum of SIT 800.
Contracts have been made with
the Edgefield & Nashville Manu-
featuring Co., of Nashville, for all
necessary furniture Except chairs),
at a cost delivered on boat or cars)
of $1,422. The chairs necessary,
which have not yet been contracted
for, will probably cost about $3.50.
Contract for the steam heating APP
paratus, which is guaranteed to
warm the entire building, was
made with O'Connor & West, of
Louisville, for $3.50.
1 propose now to make an esti-
mate of the entire cost of the build
ing, including extras, and all neces-
sary attachments when completed.
AS a matter of course, I cannot
vouch for the exact correctness of
this estimate, as the actual value or
cost of many of the items named
is not yet fully known. Each item,

FRIDAY, JUNE "a, 1881.

IN HIS celebrated pronunciamento, pub
lished in the Philadelphia Record of last
Saturday, the Attorney General declared
that Bob Ingcrsoll had been retained with
view to his influence with Blaine but
that is all lost, for the reason that Mac
Vcagh has taken full charge of the matter
and Blaine cannot control him." This is n
direct insinuation by the Attorney-General
against the Secretary of State. Apart from
its rude and vulgar discourtesy, this decla-
ration of the Attorney General is u con-
structive impugnment of the personal pro-
bity of his colleague in the Cabinet. We
know that it is utterly false. The only
question is whether there is any way OF
muzzling such wild and irresponsible de-
famer.
The Evening critic. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1881-1885, 1881-06-24

Hon. FRANK HURD has quietly announced
to his friends that they are pouring water
through sieve in mentioning him us the
candidate for governor. He recognizes the
fact that religion is in such demand out in
Ohio that his being Catholic would embar-
rass the party's fight. Frank is no doubt
correct. There are gentlemen out that way
whose breeches never bag at the knees
through excessive devotion who would feel
suddenly infringed upon, not to say out
ragged, by the nomination of a consistent
believer like Frank Hurd.
The Evening critic. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1881-1885, 1881-06-24

A CUTE Canadian circus man proposes to
add to the present comicalitics of classfica-
tion by passing his elephants through the
custom-house as "tools of trade" Tools is
a good descriptive term in the case, and
would meet the approval of those famous
and admired officials, Dogberry and Verges,
but perhaps it should rather be brought to
the more modern criticism of Samuel We'll
Ter, who would consider it, not as more
tenderer word, but as meaning more.
