few men who appear to be afraid
to let the public even of their
own State know what they are doing, and
upon what allegations they are proceeding.
Least of all is it likely that SO fragrant a
wrong would be done Colonel Mendell as to
accept the secret accusations OF these timid
prosecutors, without informing him Of the
nature of the charges. In truth the whole
affair is as irregular and suspicious as it
could well be. II the Anti. Debris Asso-
citation has anything to say against Colonel
Mendell which ii is not ashamed OF, and
which will bear investigation. It ought TO
make its charges publicly. Bat II 1t has
no more to allege against him than MT.

dress the other day, it is easy to uhder-
stand WHY il may have been thought best
not TO publish the memorial. Inc Sc
cresv in which this matter has been envel-
oned thus far certainly warrants suspicion
that the Executive Committee does not
care to submit its alleged charges to the
public. for no better or more creditable
reason than because it knows they are not
of character to justify the demand based
upon them. But the public and Colonel
Mendell have right to insist on the re-
moval of the veil Of mystery, and the pub

The progress of Kansas in population
and wealth during the past ten years has
been extraordinary. That State has been
applyin well.devised immigration sys-
tenn, and as result has outstripped all the
rest of the Union in growth. A recent dis.
patch gave some interesting statistics OF
her prosperity and prospects, but the GEN.
sus shows most clearly how she has been
advancing of late. For instance, in 1870
she had but IS, 302 farms, and in 1880 the
number of farms had risen to lS3, OO01
This shows an increase Of nearly $50, 600
farms in ten years, and no other State ap-
proaches this rate of growth. California
during the decade ending in 1850 only
added 1900 farms to her list. II there
were no other States to make comparisons
with, this might have passed as evincing
fair rate OF growth, but when we see that
Kansas had more than twelve times as
many new farms in the same period, it is
necessary to realizs that we are being
very literally left behind in the race. Hill
nois, with $4,000 new farms, Indiana with
&c, 900, lows with 10000, Kentucky with
80, 600, and several other States, have all
beaten us, but Kansas by far the most
badly. If, however, we have the sense to
adopt her methods, and advertise and can
vass for settlers, there is no reason to doubt
that we shall in the next ten years very
largely increase our population. 1t ia GER
tainly time that we went about the work
seriously, and wish spirit equal to the
Importance of the undertaking. Already
several private efforts are being made, but
it is desirable that the State should be en-.
listed openly and fully in the work, and
we hope that the next Legislature will
take measures to this end.

JOHN RoAcH's DILEMMA.

John Roach, the notorious subsidy beg
gar, is just now between the horns of
dilemma. For years he has been asserting
that he could not compete as ship-builder
and engine and boiler. maker, with Euro
pean manufacturers, because the workmen
he employed demanded higher wages than
the "pauper labor" of Europe received.
He therefore required special protective
measures in the form of navigation laws
and high tariffs, and his demands were
acceded to. He got all he wanted in the
shape of obstructive legislation, in fact,
but it seems that he has two policies, one
for Congress and the public, and the other
for his private business. For the New
York boiler. makers have struck for higher
wages, and they have asserted that there
was only single obstacle to their success,
and that was John Roach. So it appears
that this patriotic gentleman, who cannot
compete with European labor because he
has to pay higher wages to American
workmen, will not pay those higher wages
if he can avoid doing so, but will resist the
demands Of his men for an increase Of pay,
even while he is being assisted to pay such
higher wages by the whole country. This.
however, is fair example of the humbug
and fraud which characterize all the Pro-
tectionist practices.

THe SENATE AND THE TARIFF COM
MISSION.

1t is most probable that the Senate
will confirm the Presidents nominations for
the Tariff Commission, but if Van Wyck
can get his resolution for an open debate
passed, it will be quite possible for the
Free Trade members to show that such a
Commission ought to be rejected. The
Senate, on the Republican side of it, has
here an opportunity to do wise thing,
but we do not expect that the wise thing
will be done. In spite of the danger
signals hung out all over the country in the
form of labor strikes and depression in
manufacturing and commerce, we fear the
Republicans will go on blindly clinging to
that inequitable, stupid and futile fiscal
system which has already done SO much
harm, and that even this palpable impost-
ure of d Tariff Commission will be con-
firmed and allowed to contribute its share
to the precipitation Of convulsion which
threatens to destroy the party found up
holding the tariff. The sagacity of poll
ticians in these days appears to be an
unknown quantity, but when the storm
they are preparing bursts upon their heads
they will perhaps retain sense enough to
realize that it might have been averted.

WHAT WAS IT FOR.

It is gravely stated in a dispatch that
the sum of 800, 600 for secret services, put
in the Appropriation bill, was not called
for by Blaine, but by Secretary Freling-
huysen, who, it is said, needs it " to watch
"the Panama Canal scheme in American
Interests" We do not gee that the sub
stitution of Frelinghuysen's name for
Blaine's renders this demand any the less
Objectionable. What can Mr.. Freling-
huysen do with ninety thousand dollars
unless he uses it as corruption fund in
South or Central America? Why is such
sum necessary to watch American in
"terests % Is it intended to keep a
brigade on the Isthmas to do the watching?
And what does an American Secretary of
State in time Of peace want Secret Ser.
vice fund at all for? 1t is well understood
that such fund is employed for under.
handed and immoral purposes. Whom
does Mr.. Frelinghuysen wish to purchase
or debauch Altogether the proposition is
ugly, and it requires explanation.

COLONEL WENDELL AND HIS SECRET
ACcUssRs.

The Executive Committee of the Anti.
Debris Association, at meeting in this
city last week, adopted certain mysterious

remove Colonel Mendell from his official
position. The aforesaid memorial has not
been published, nor have the alleged
reasons or charges contained in it been
given to the press. This is a very remark.
able line of procedure, and we hold it to be
not less improper and unfair than singular.
Colonel Mendell is public officer. He is
in the employ Of the Federal Government.
II any body of men have any accusations
to prefer against him, the public and the
accused have right to know what those
charges are. Nothing can be less just or
manly than to formulate such charges
covertly and mysteriously, and send them
to Washington without allowing either the
accused officer or the public to know what
they are. Nor is such covert and under.
hand proceeding at all likely to give the
concoctors OF this hole. and corner memorial

partment. The Executive Committee of
the Anti-Debris Association must be very

For long time it has been our aim to present
thoroughly good work, at prices no higher than is
usually charged for inferior sorts. We believe an
inspection of our stock will show that we have sue

and that none but skilled labor is employed in the

taste of the day in such things We aim to have our
UNDERWEAR used where such work is now made
at home We can do this only way: First, to
have our goods equal to homemade work in every par

committee appointed by the act in con-
iuuction with the Board in so far as the
expenditure of the $4,000 recently

over and amicably settled.
Three sets of plans we're submitted
