THE morning Republican of last Tuesday
had some excellent anecdotes of Hon. David
Davis and of the fight of Secretary Bristow
with the express companies-very excellent,
indeed, since they We're copied without
change of words from THE SUNDAY HERALD
of two Sundays ago. We could stand it
this far, because we have grown used, as
eels are said to do with reference to being
skinned, to having the Monday issues of
our contemporaries largely made up with
the shears from these columns of the day
before, valuable items being taken without
change, but equally without credit, evincing
that the honesty of our neighbors is ranker
than their wit. But in the above instances
our original matter is divided up and con-
spicuously credited partly Washington
" correspondence, Boston TrdCeicr,n and
partly especial to the Cincinnati CONNER
"ciai." Words can say no more. If this
be not adding insult to injury, then there is
no such process known to the law. We
may, however, be permitted to remark under
strong proyocation that if I" Western
"methods of journalism" consist in re-
printing under wrong credits nearly n
column of matter which the majority of the
newspaper readers of Washington have
read, marked, and inwardly digested ten
days before, our contemporaries spread Of
eight pages is only likely to resemble the
height of the pole on which the traditional
monkey climbed-leading merely to indis-
erect betrayas. But we have hopes of
better things.

The best remedy for deaths like that of
Alexander (" Bud'') Eagleston would be
such law as that of New York and some
other States, giving heavy damages for the
killing to the widow, children, or dependent
relatives, to be recovered by civil suit
AS the common law stands, derived from
barbarous days, it is cheaper for 4 railway
corporation to kill man outright than to let
him escape manned or injured. In fact, by
the original purity of the common law, the
object that killed Il man was forfeited to the
king as a deodand. If railway corporations
lost locomotive and train of cars every time
they ran over a human being, il would not
happen so often. All cOroners' iures are not
SO honest and fearless as that which brought
in verdict against the parsimonious and
ill-managed Baltimore and Ohio concern,
and even corOners' verdicts, as is proved by
the Spuyten Duyvil horror, do not result in
much finally. But a civil suit, if allowed, is
sure to be brought and to be pressed with
energy. Both public policy and common
humanity demand such an amendment to our
laws. The charitable of the District are now
subscribing to a fund which should be paid
entirely by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company.

ANY bill for the reform Of the Civil Ser

Senator Pendleton's, provide for an impair
tial and permanent commission, Independent
of any of the Departments or their officials.
Temporary commissions made up from chiefs
Of bureaux and the like, and without any
supervision, will not answer. In the first
place, it is not fair to expect such service
from hard worked clerks in addition to their
regular duties in the second, they have
neither the experience to fit them for decid-

that the Democracy need the hope of the

publicsns are equally stimulated by the fear
of losing them, and have besides the adyan-

NOTHING could be more perilous to Sena-
tors and Representatives than voting to ex-
tend the time for paying the tax on whisky
If there has been oyerproduction by the dis
tillers, to postpone the payment of taxes will
only increase the evil, which is one of the
kind that must be left to the operation of
economic laws. The whisky tax has stood
as it now is long enough for trade to become
adjusted to existing conditions, and none of
the hardships which distillers may feel can
justly be chargeable to governmental ac.
tion. Distillers ought not to be made the
subject of special legislation any more than
any other class of producers who have piled
up more merchandise than they can sell.

The decision in the Curtis political assess
ment case, like that in the Arlington eject
ment case, is worthy Of the palmiest days of
the Supreme Court of the United States. One
forever protects the private property of the
citizen against the lawless aggressions of the
officers of the Government the other estab-
fishes the right of Congress to put down the
oyer-grown Civil Service. With the accession
of men like Gray and Blatchford to the bench,
and the gradual retirement of the war period
and " legal-tender " justices, we may expect
to see this mighty and venerable tribunal
assume again the place which il once held in
the affections and respect of the people ofthe
country.
