The Philadelphia Record put out lis
Sunday edition, in size and general ap-
pearance like the daily edition, but with
considerably more reading matter. The
Sunday Record comes to stay Of course.
A GERMAN in Philadelphia has dis
covered that the expansion by heat OF
bisulphide of carbon is the great mechani
cal power of the future. He proposes to
move mountains with it.
IT having been suggested that there are
:, 900 millionaires in the country, the New
York Ledger, which is published by one of
them, says $50 would be nearer the mark.
There arc probably as many as 500.
The New York Sun repeats the story
that when things looked blue for Gar
field 500, 600 we're raised and sent to Ohio
by Jay Gould, through Whitelaw Reid,
for the Republicans the candidate bind
ing himself to appoint Stanley Matthews
to the supreme bench to reverse the ap-
proved constitutiorality of the Thurman
railroad act.
The New York Globe, edited by colored
men, says: when a party cannot main-
tain its supremacy without corrupting the
public service by bargaining away Offices
and taxing poor employees, and when
party is unable to correct these evils by
forces within its organization, we cannot
see why it should longer hold the conf
dence of honest, thoughtful citizens

FIRST ASSISTANT PosTM AsTER GENERAL
HATTON wants it understood that he has
no objection to the Federal officers in his
department responding to Jay Hubbel's
blackmailing assessment. He writes 81

duty to dictate to the employees under me

employee of the government, decide for
myself whether or not will make VOL
unteer contribution to aid in meeting the
necessary and legitimate expenses of the
campaign, and am quite willing to con-
cede the same right to all other men,"
This is plain encugh to be understood at
any cross roads.
EVEN the New York Tribune is suspi-
cious of the persistent demand of the state
department for 100000 for secret SER
vice." Very naturally and properly free
people feel jealous of the public purse,
and they demand that sufficient vouchers
shall accompany all expenditures. OF

year a larger sum will be asked next year,
and VIC shall very soon find ourselves
launched on a sea Of doubtful and danger
