They described the condition OF the JAN as
terrible. No one doubts that they told the
trutb. On the other hand, the Grand
.Jurv of this county finds nothing to con-
denim. The men who compose II are
also of the best in this community anu
undoubtedly they told the truth as they saw
it. The simple explanation is that the federai
Jury took the Sheriff and the Warden In
Ludlow-st. by surprise; then these shrewd
men cleaned the place up and were quite
prepared for the county Grand Jury. Inc
preseutments offset each other, and the warden
and the Sheriff smile knowingly. Presently
the old abuses will be fourishing as OF OLD.
Then somebody will expose them, and then
the Jail will be whitewashed again.
Captain Baker of the steamship Niagara,
which took fire and was scuttled ON thursday
off the Florida coast, seems to have performed
his dnty fully. He acted with cOOlaess and
discretion. lost none of his passengers, and
saved as much of the ship as any one could
have done. He apparently energies from the
disaster free from the burden of any duty or
precaution neglected. Whether the owners OIL
the line are equally free from responsibility
is another matter. The fire originated, IL Is
supposed, in the ignition OF petroleum. TAR
spirits of turpentine, or other highly infam-
mable substance, which was stored near the
engine-room. 1t is not yet stated whether the
combustion was purely spontaneous, or due TO
the proximity of the hot engine-room.
Primarily, at all events, it was the petroleum
OF the tar or the turpentine that made the
trouble. The golden days when passenger
boats shall carry nothing but passengers are
yet distant; but the owners and agents o,
such lines even now should know enough ana
be careful enough to refuse petroleum ana all
other dangerous freight

Governor Cleveland says he VIII not GU
deayor to shape tho course OF the coming De"''
ocrau,c State Convention, or words 10 tha'
effect. In explanation of his determination ne
states that he finds plenty to do in the Executive
Chamber, and that he believes Democratic con-
veptiops are accustomed to take care OF them
selves. In other words, the Governor VII,
make no canvass looking to The exclusion Oh
Tammsny from the State Convention, notwith-
standing the fact that her three representatives
in the last Senate administered to him as severe
n snub as was ever publicly put upon Governor
nv prominent members of bis own party. Smit-
ten upon the right cheek, he-giyes out that ne
will attend strictly to official business.
Well, such q course will gain him the favor Oh
all the members of his party who love Demo-
GRAFT upon whose head the bump OF amiability Is
abnormally developed. But unfortunately lor
Mr.. Cleveland that element in the Democracy
of this State is 80 small as hardly to be worth
considering. The great majority OK Democrats
reserve their enthusiasm for plueky Leader
leader who under no circumstances Will allow
himself TO be fooled with. The mild-tempered
Mr.. Cleveland, who suffers John Kely to hit
him between the eyes without protest, save such
as is contained in message as impotent as it
was angry and undignifed, is we'll calculated to
arouse the good-natured contempt OF Democ-
racys rank and file A leader that acts so as to
convey the impression that he is terrified oovl-
ously cannot look for the admiration OF those VINO
are known dstinctively as 2the unterrified.'
They will see in the Governors solemn asser-
ton that his official duties engross his atten-
ton merely the lame excuse OF conscious weak
ness-the confession that he does no. care to try
conclusions with John Kelly.
The rejection of Mr.. Murtha Is to go IN
avenged. The three Tammany Senators are
not to be disciplined or otherwise punished. In
deed, It is already understood that the chief OF
the three, Mr.. Grady, is to be renominated.
As for Mr. Kelly, all he has to do when 1t is time
for the Democratic State Convention to come
to order. is to enter the hall and pick out his
seat. He will find no obstacle In his path. IL Is
more than probable that he will be greeted with
cheers AZ he walks down the aisle. The Uticd
Herald lately took occasion to call attention to
the large measure of unpopularity which Mr..
Cleveland had achieved. 1t sounds extrava-
CANT in statement" The Herald wrote, but it
. Is the fact nevertheless, fact ascertained by
personal contact with Democrats OF every de-
gree In all parts of the State, that Gov
ernor Cleveland is to-day the most unpopular
Democrat among Democrats in the whole
State, So unpopular and yet so tremendous
ly good-natured Evidently the brand OF
familiarity that Democrats take to is made up
of stcrner stuff than the Cleveland stuff.
