IRREGULARITIES in the Bureau of En-
craving and Printing at Washington are
nothing new. The other day a startling
discovery was made by Secretary of the
Treasury, Folger. 1t appears that in
spite of all the spies, informers, watch
dogs, locks, records, and precautions
that cost such untold lots of money,
some parts of engraved plates have late
ly been distracted from the bureau, and
the Secretary does not know whether
they have been used by cOunterfeiters
or not. The whole affair is striking
reminder of the celebrated seven-thirty
counterfeit note which was made up
according to the opinion of experts, out
of parts of plates stolen from the Bureau
of Engraving and Printing. The Secre.
tary will probably have many cold chills
run down his back if he keeps on inves-
tigating the Bureau.

THE STAR ROUTE PROSECUTIONS.

The Star Route prosecutions have beer
on the tapis year, and still no result
has been obtained, Great things were
promised and the guilty were to be
brought to speedy justice, as swift ex-
ample to wrOng-dOers; and to vindicate
the great Republican party. The cOun-
try, however, now realizes that the pro-
ceedings to this time have been series
of professional blunders, and hence, a
miserable failure.
The original programme of Mr.. Mae
Veagh had to be abandoned as wholly
inefficient, and then the statute of limi-
tations applied to some of the gravest
charges against the Star reuters. When
Attorney General Brewster came in he
made public proclamation of increased
VigOr in this prosecution, promising his
personal presence in the cases. He i'm
ported expert counsel from Philadelphia
to frame the indictments against the
alleged criminals. But when the in
dictments were presented in court, they
were found to be seriously defective,
and new ones were considered necessary.
A host of witnesses had been summoned
from the TemOtest States and territories
under these first indictments. They
could not be used until a new indict-
ment was framed, which omitted the
name of the largest contractor, who had
been named in the former experiment.
All this will serve to show how this
Star route business has been managed
and yet Republican papers have be-
slowed free praise and sought public
applause for these men in power who,
with energy, promised great and rapid
results. 1t is doubtful if those in power
have, at any time, seriously intended to
deprive Brady, Dorsey u Co. of their ill
gotten gains and send them to the Peni-
tentiary. Garfield and Blaine knew
what they owed to them, and had little
disposition it may be assumed, to send
them up. Grant interfered and saved
his friend BabcOck in the whisky trial
by handing over to BabcOck's lawyer the
collected evidence of the Government
against him. A similar service, it
would seem, has been rendered Dorsey.
1t is an open secret at Washington that
some of the lobbyists who instigated the
prosecution from reyengeful malice,
and who were employed to aid it, uti-
lized the opportunity and the advant-
ages of that position, after having en-
joyed all its possible profits, to betray
the Government side for a price. The
cost to the Government for special cOun-
sci, for experts, for witnesses and mile
age, for detectives and spies, for nOtOri-
Gus blackmailers, for disgraced contrac-
tors, who were hired to work up these
cases, aggregates enormously. And the
end is not yet.

In the House at Washington last week,
Mr.. Calkins, Republican, Iowa, rose to a
question of personal privilege, and had
read portion of letter written by Mr..
Hewitt, which charges that the Com
mittee on Elections refused to investi-
gate charges of forgery preferred in the
Mackey-O'COnnOr South Carolina case:
Mr.. Hewitt-He disclaimed any inten-
| tlOn of making an unjust charge against
any member of the Committee on Elec-
t1Ons, and stated that in writing the
| letter which had given rise to the debate
he had based its declarations on the
minority report, the petition of Mr.. Dib-
bic, and the assertions of the Democratic
members of the committee. As one of
the foundations of his letter Mr.. Hewitt
desired to have read the affidavit of C.
Smith, United States Supervisor of Elec-
tiOns.
Mr.. Reed, of Maine, objected to this,
on the ground that it was not fair for
the Democrats to discuss in an indirect
way. That was the trouble in this
matter.
Mr.. Whatever the trouble is I
have some rights, on this floor, and |
will assert my privileges in my own
way.
Mr.. Reed-Other people have rights as
well.
Mr.. Hewitt-Aid you know how to
maintain them.
The Speaker ruled that the affidavit
might be read. 1t charges that there
are interlineatiOns, eTasures, and Omis-
siOns in the testimony taken in the con-
test between Mackey and O'COnnOr. Mr..
Hewitt, continuing, submitted that that
was sufficient basis for the very mOder-
ate statements which he had made in
his letter.
Mr.. Calkins then reviewed ibriefly the
evidence in the case and read affidavits
in explanation and denial of that filed
by G. Smith.
The matter was then dropped and Mr..
Calkins called up the contested elec-
tiOn case. Mr.. Randall raised the ques-
tiOn Of consideration, and the filibuster-
ing was renewed.
The effort now is to displace Mr.. Dib-
BILE who was elected after the death of
Mr.. O'COnnor; Mackey, Republican, not
contesting the last election. There is
no disputing the legality of Mr.. Dibble's
election, and seeking to displace him
and give his place to Mackey is certainly
a high handed proceeding on the part
of the Republican majority of the House.

THE POker-Pond Legislature builded
in vain and their work is in ruins. The
Supreme Court on Tuesday morning de-
cided the law license law, and hence,
unconstitutional. This decision is a
surprise to Republicans generally, for
the idea prevails largely that the funda-
mental law of the land is of no conse-
quence when it stands in the way of
these law-making tinkers. They seem
to consider that party requirements are
paramount to all constitutional guar
antees. Courts of law are organized to

THE Stark County DEMOCRAT pretends

congressman are now serving longer

of advantage which the Democracy of

before the late war, and in fact since.

1T MEANS BUsINEss.

The Republican bolt in Pennsylvania
evidently means business. The Inde-
pendents in their State Convention on
the Gath gave fair notice to the Cameron
dynasties that the party is to be relieved
of such rule. The movement, therefore,
is serious.
One of the speakers declared in the
Convention that for ten years the Re-
publicans of Pennsylvania have not en-
jOyed freedom of speech or action, but
have been dictated to by party auto
crat. The wonder is the revolt has been
delayed so long.
The regular Republican State cOnven-
tion a few weeks ago at Harrisburg,
was managed so as to attempt to pacify
the Independents and stop the revolt.
But the sweet platitudes of the platform
| deceived no one; and the nominations
made to please the Independents did
not stick. These sops therefore did not
answer the purpose, and the work of
CamerOn's convention is likely to come
to grief.
While opposing boss rule, the indie
pendents declare hostility to the SPOTS
system also; and intimate that the Civil
Service Reform marked out by President
Garfield, is not to be adhered to by his
successor. This fling may admOnish Ar
thur that the Independents may antagO-
nize his administration at least, that
they do not take much stock in his re-
form, yet we hope to see the Cameron
ian chain broken. This dynasty has en-
shaved Pennsylvania long enough and
Horace Greeley, Charles Sumner, Sal
mon P. Chase and others were disgusted
with such rule years ago; but Grant,
Cameron & Co., were too much for them.
