Calling Dorsey Bad Names.

There is disposition, we regret to
note, among our Democratic contempo-
raries to cali the Republican Press to
account for speaking of Dorsey as
sstkief," sliar, .'sneak," etc. There
is force no doubt in the suggestion that
be is precisely the same man he was
| when the Republican party could not do
him too much honor If he --ttihicf5-
liar and sneak" now, he was thief, liar
and sneak when he was in the Senate,
when he was carrying Indiana, by cor
ruption and when he was banqueted
therefor in New York. There is force
also in the suggestion that representa-
tives of the Republican party in the
press or elsewhere do not appear to
good advantage in condemning Dorsey
| for the attributes and characteristics by
which they and the parry have profited
in the past.
But at the same time they ought not
to be blamed for calling Dorsey names,
They can not help it. 1t is human ma
ture. When one member of "gang"
turns informer the rest always denounce
| him without any reference 10 the fact
that that he is no worse than they. They
denounce him for ''giving the gang
away" and in one aspect of the matter
they are perfectly right. II there Is 10
be no honor among thieves there can
be no successful thieving; and thieves
must therefore be held to the code by
their pals.
There is nothing else to do in Dor
sev's case but to denounce him. His
stories can not be successfully contra
dicted-at all events the persons imph-
Gated carefully refrain from contra
dieting them. He can not be punished
by refusing to keep him in office, for he
is out of Office, and did SO well while he
was in that he has no need to go in
again. If his Republican fellow-rascais
can not abuse him and villify him what
can they do? Are they to let him go
wholly unpunished for his terrible ex,
position OF the party's rottenness and
iniqu.ty9 And if they do let him go
wholly unpunished how are they to keep
other of the party rascals from follow
ing his example and telling what they
know?-Detroit Free Press.

Enough to Make a Horse Laugh.

When leading Republican paper
soberly declares that lone of the most
prominent and commendable features
of the Republican party is its readiness
and its determination to abolish abuses
within the party" we are necessarily
reminded of the joke that made horse
laugh. This declaration Is Of that
measure, for there assuredly was never
a party of any influence in American
politics more notoriously incapable OF
abolishing abuses which are calculated
to weaken its hold on the country than
this same Republican party. For some
thing more than a score of years it has
ruled the country, and within that
period has developed an infinite cata-
fogue of abuses, not single zone of
which has the party as party ever
sought to abolish until it was carried
unwillingly into the work of reform by
an irresistible whirlwind of public. sem
tinent. Seek the records and not
single trifing exception will be found
from the beginning of the catalogue to
the end. Yet that tells but half the
tale, and the best half, for the Repub-
ican party, as it is equally true, to the
eternal humiliation of the Republican
party, that the uniform and invariable
failure to secure adequate punishmenr
of those who have been guilty of
the abuses it is claimed have
been abolished, has been due
to the active and efficient
sympathy of the highest officials of the
Government with the guilty offenders.
Let Babcock and Belknap and Dorsey
and Brady speak for the truth OF that
charge. Who can question what would
have been their portion if there had
been any readiness and determine
tion'' in Grant, Garfield and Arthur to
"abol sh abuses within the partyPp
Where Is the exception to this continued
and persistent course of resistance to
all reform, even where public opinion
had compelled action? 1t will be sought
in vain in the records of the Credit
Mobilier, whisky-ring, Belknap and
Star-route reforms, and it would take 6
powerful microscope to find to-day any
readiness or discrimination to carry out
the reform of the Civil Service, which
the emasculated Pendleton bill was pro-
fessedly passed to secure. There was
considerable readiness and much de-
termination exhibited in every depart
ment of the Government when the time
approached for the law to 90 into effect,
but as the whole country knows it was,
as usual, exclusively exercised to pre-
vent and not to accomplish reform. 1t
is this inerad cable characteristic that
is fast driving voters out of the Repub-
lican party, convincing them that moth
ing can be worse. and anything must
be better than the rule of party SO
