The Republican Press ON Robson.

From the NeW York Times.
No public Official can conceal or cover NJ
his record, and once it is made he canno
change it. Unfounded charges will do it nj
permanent injury, and investigation commit
tees can neither blacken nor whiten it.
scrupulously upright man is beyond thereacl
Of ealumny, and the more conspicuous he be
comes, the surer he is of q fair judgmen
of his fellow men. The difficulty with Mr.
Robeson's official record as Secretary of thu
Navy is not that it has been assailed by hi
enemies and subjected to a congressional in
vestigation, but that tits incapable of vindica
ton. The results of his administration abids
with us, and by them it is judged.
From the Utica Herald.
Mr.. Robson cannot redeem his admins
tration as Secretary of the Navy by smirchinl
the characters of any ofthe persons whose dut,
it has been to investigate sandry phases o
that administration. Their character, what
ever it may be, has nothing whatever to d.
with the facts they ELECTED in investigation
and it is these facts, as they are spread upoI
the records of Congress, which have led to tn,
widespread distrust of Mr.. Robson and tn,
popular conviction that the less he has to dc
with the American navy the better for tn,
navy and the taxpayers both. The Hons,

Asleep for rs Hours.

Matthew Mckay, a Young man Is years Of
age, living Nl the corner Of 81. Clair and Ros.
sitter streets. Cleveland. CHG, is possessed Of
. peculiar disease that very often sea,is him
into slanUber from which be does not 4akon
for days. Thursday evening be went to sleer
~ usual and agoke rs midnight Oa Friday.
On this occasion lightning struck the house,
and though Il shattered the chimney aud
made much eommotion il did not disturb the
sleeper A reporter Of the Cieueialsi Voice
called on the young man short time ago and
learned TINT he had been affected IN this way
for three years. He had slept seveniy.iiye
hours at time, and about two weeks ago went
to sleep as usual In the evening, and did not
awaken for three whole days and nights.
DIS. Scott and Carpenter have tried on sncl,
occasions TO rouse him by an application OF
leeches and other means, but without success.
He says he does not feel any unusual sensa-
tons before or after one Of these sleeping
spells, bur gets up rs usual and goes to his
cork.

Civil Service Reformers to Hubbell.

Messrs. Everett P Wheeler and Frederick
W. Whitridge, representing the Civil Service
Reform Association, on Wednesday wrote to
Congressman Hubbell, expressing regret that
he appears to shun judicial decision of the
question raised by the association. 1t has
never been contended by the association that
Mr.. Hubbell himself was indictable, and hence
his allusion to a test as to whether he is
equally responsible with any other contribu-
tor is frivolous. They say further:
SIT is legally of no consequence whether the
payment of the assessments is voluntary or
compulsory. In either case payment is pro-
hibifed, and we trust that this will eventually
become so clear to you that you and your
committee will either act accordingly or else
that you will not seek to evade legal demon
stration of the fact that you are issuing invi-
tations to commit a misdemeanor. If, how
ever, you are quite sure that the contributions
are entirely voluntary, we especially regret
that you have nothing to say to our proposal
that You unite with us in a request to the
President to issue an order that no person
shall be in any manner punished or removed
for not responding to your circular"
1t is understood that the Civil Service Re-
form Association will endeavor to present to
the United States Grand Juries the names of
oficeholders contributing 10 Mr.. Hubpelfs
committee.

The speeches and achievements Of Presi.
dent Garfield are written on the bnghtesi
pages Of our country history, and win serve
10 aid its progress in all time to eome.-Bdi-
tfmore County Herald.
Garfield speeches were only sentiment.
His votes were always partisan in the ma
fionaI legislature. With perhaps one exeep-
mon. Among his achievements was the
fhsta Of the Presidency in 1876, and the
faIsfiyiag Of election returns and evidence.
Then be took some Credit Mobilier stock
and swore he dida.t, and did not come out
Of the DeGoIyer job With his character for
honesty elevated In fact, h bis public
career, Garfield was one Of the worst mep
Of his times, and most dangerous.

SENSIBLE IDEA-A sensible idea was adopt
ed at the opening of the annual meeting in
Boston of the American philologists On Tues
ate with the committee Of the American
Scientific Association in framing memorial
to be sent to four hundred and thirty colleges,
strongly deprecating the comforting of the de-
grees of Doctor of Philosophy and Doctor of
Science hoRoTis caMsa. The practice of Civ
ing these degrees, as everybody knows, has
grown so indiseriminate that they no longer
have any significance. In the cases of some
persons thus distinguished the connection of
their names with philosophy and science might
have been taken for the broadcast satire and
burlesque. There ought to be no such thing
as complimentary degree, and if titles Of
bestowal hoaoris cdtGsa should be abolished.
