Hon. Stephen A. Douglas charged
the responsibility for the war on
the Republican leaders in the Uni
ted States Senate, in January, 1861;
Don Piatt in 1867, then a leading
Republican, in an open letter, declar-
ed: "From the hour of Lincoln's in
.auguration up to that of his death,
the thieves acre all IN office. This
vas especially the case with monied
officers. Honest men stood aghast
at the IMMUNITY with which stealing
went on. All cries of shame and out
rage seemed unavailing. All oppo-
sition was thrown away. Thieves
were turned out to be succeeded by
thieves, and colos, al fortunes were
made in an hour" The financial
policy of the Republican party was
calamitous to a degree beyond com
Earison. The country has not yet
recovered from it, as to-day iron
workers are on a strike, and this
strike embraces in it's effects about
half a million people. Ifthere is any
thing specially lovely in the Repub-
lican party we would like to have it
pointed out.

The Democratic Senators whose
terms end next March are fourteen
in number, to wit: Morgan of Alaba-

of Delaware, Ben Hill of Georgia,
Beck Of Kentucy, Lamar cf Missis-
sippi, Mcpherson of New Jersey,
Ransom of North Carolina, Grover of
Oregon, Butler Of South Carolina
Harris of Tennessee, Coke of Texas,
Johnston of Virginia, and Davis OF
West Virginia. The Republican Sen
ators who share the same uncertain
ty as to theirpolitical future are nine
in number: Chilcott of Colorado,
who is merely filling out the brief
remainder of Teller's term; McDill,
who succeeded Kirkwood when he
went into Gen. Garfield's Cabinet:
William Pitt Kellogg Of Louisiana,
who is certainly at the end of his
rope; Frye of Maine, G. Frisbie Hoal
of Massachusetts, at this time the
most anxious of all the anxious; Fer

also be elected in Illinois a successor
to David Davis, Independent, now
temporary President of the Senate.

The detailed news of the discovery
of the bodies of belong and his men
has been waited for, since the first
brief tidings, with a consciousness
that the narrative must prove a hor-
rible one. 1t certainly has fulfilled
these expectations. The story of
the death of man after man, the first
and most fortunate of the victims be-
ing buried, but the later ones leav
ing their comrades too weak to make
this effort, is pathetic in the extreme,
and reaches its climax in these
words:
"None of the dead had boots. Their
feet were covered with rags, tied on.
In the pockets of all were pieces of
burnt skin and ofthe clothing which
they had been eating. The hands of
all were more or less burned, and it
looked as if when dying they had
crawled into the fire, Boyd lying over
the fire and his clothing being burn
ed through to the skin, which was
not burned"

The Chicago Times presents the
following cheerful account of the fl
nancial condition of one of our rich
pensioned widows:
Mrs. Garfield has $500, 900 in gov
eminent bonds, the result of the sub
scription. Then her husbands life
was insured for $4,000, which she
promptly received. She also was
paid the salary of the President for
the unoccupied first year, amounting
to about $4,000. Then add to it
about $4,000, the total value of Gar
fields estate. That makes $500, 900,
does it not? The income from this
total of more than 800, 600 will lie
perhaps $4,000 q year. She is also
put on the pension list at $4,000 a
year. So she is comfortable and can
raise her children well.
With an income of sixteen thou
sand dollars q year from her OWN in
vested means, Mrs. Garfield had more
than she needed without being put
down on the national pauper list for
five thousand more every year.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer pre-
sents views exactly when it says
practically there are but two ways to
deal with the liquor traffic. 1t must
either be prohibited Or licensed
Whether it can be prohibited or not,
that is to say whether the prohibition
a be actually enforced or not is a
question open to d:cussion. Whether
a prohibition that does not prohibit
or a license that controls the evils of
the traffic and produces revenue is
the better plan is also a question
upon which there may be intelligent
discussion. But that one or the 9TH
er of these plans must be adopted in
this State is an undoubted fact. We
have no kesitancy in saying that we
believe a well regulated license sys-
tenn is the only practical method OF
regulating the traffic.

The passage of the Pension A

The passage of the Pension APP
preparation bill in the House, voting
500, 900, 900 for a single years dis
bursements, almost without COM
ment, is a sign of the times. A long
debate in the Senate has resulted in
the defeat of those who sought to re-
peal the Arrears act, which causes
the main part of this prodigious ex-
penditure, while in the House there
had not even been an effort to repeal
it. OF course, it only remained to
vote the present hundred millions,
and to follow it with other hundred
millions when future pension bills
shall come up.

The real intelligent and respecta

der any circumstances support him
again, and if all who now declare they
will not vote for him would stand by
their manhood, he would be beaten
three hundred in the county. The

ly crowd him in again. But is it not
a shame and a disgrace to the old
"Third District" to be represented
by such a man?

Forgery appears to have been one
Of the means employed by the Star

their scheme of public plumber. Pa

proper means to justify An end when
they resorted to forged documents
TO steal the electoral vote of Louisi-
ana to put their candidate in office,

for their crime with the patronage of

that, in the Republican party of

A Conservative Defined.
Pomeroy's Great West.

OulCEOJ . OICdb WOSbs
Brother Gould editor of the Dem
ocrat at Eaton, Ohio, wants the edi-
tor Of this paper to define a c~onserva-
tive if he can.
A conservative? Well he is a nice
fellow. When several of them are
punched together like a lot of wilted
asparagus they make an excellent
David Davis. In Egypt, Turkey
and other countries in that locality
they are called eunuohs. A conser-
vative is a man from whom nine
tenths of all his ambition, enterprise
and usefulness have oozed out. He
is a nice old fellow who prefers visi-
ting sugar camps about the time they
are sugaring off, and who dislikes ex-
ercise of any kind. He is o magnifi-
cent spectacle of what has been in
the past, and who hopes to draw pro-
fits from some person or party on ac-
count of his willingness to hold back
at all times and under all circum-
stances. In the times of Christ he
followed the Savior afar off, and came
shopping around the pans and ket-
ties after the procession had moved
on. If the world were made up of
conservatives, the only advancement
that would be made would be to the
rear. A conservative is a man who
has fallen out of the procession and
is waiting for death to come along
and scoop him in; but death gener-
ally lets him live agreat while, be
cause he is of no particular harm in
the world, and therefore might as
well stay here as to go to some Other
place where he amounts to nothing
A conservative is always hanging
back. He is not q believer in pro
gress and would prefer riding il
Noah's ark to travelling in a first
class ocean steamer. Like an ole
frog pond he becomes full of weeds
sticks, pollywogs, water bugs, bac
smells and malaria. An array of 10,
900 conservatives would devour al
enormous quantity of pork and bean
if it could not get pie, and would re
main in camp so long as the neigh
, bors brought in pork and beans.
