The Cincinnati Ne,cs Journal has |
dispatch from Washington, which, ]
true, ought to make Logan Mckee g
into his hole and draw il in after him
Its TO the effect that desiring 10 cal
on the president he got Phil. Thomp
son TO 20 with him. At their first
visit he put was of till later hour
aud at last when they got permission
10 enter into his august presence, Mr.,
Arthur came forward and shook hands
with Thompson. but entirely ignored
Mckee. But we will let the ". j.
tell the story; "Mr. President" said
Thompson, "let me introduce you to
one of my respected constituents, Mr..
Logan Mckee" The president made
the most Of his six feet, snufIed the air
auiibly, jumped over the cuspidore
before he recovered himself and final
ly conquered his equilibrium by lock
ing his hands behind his back. III
refuse TO take this mans hand, sir, I"
he sputtered. "His face is as famil-
lar to me as the front of the White
House. Mr.. Swope has not resigned.
He has right to resign. Who dares
to question that right / know this
man Mckee. He has been before me
fifty or sixty times asking for a place
and say he has no right to ask it
when Swope has not resigned. Swope
is a fixed quantity and he will remain
where he is" Here Mr.. Mckee at
tempted to say that he was not an APP
plicant for Swope's place, when the
president broke out in a violent que
ry, "What he was there for2" Phil.
Thompson, seeing that there might be
trouble, said, "Mr. President, we will
not occupy your time any further"
"Very well, sir" said the president,
as he walked into an adjoining room,
where Mr.. Thompson says he heard
unmistakable evidences that wassail
and wine we're the congenial compan-
ions in whose bosom Arthur sought
refuge" That was pretty bad treat
ment to be sure. Perhaps Mr.. Ar
thur will find out yet that Mckee is a
bigger man than he supposed in view
ing his stature.

The Louisville Commercial, which
try it never 80 hard, can not throw of
its old republican predictions, albeit
it claims to be an independent paper,
and in the present campaign is put
ting in its best ticks for the republi
can ticket. 1t dislikes above all things
to see Col. MOrrow's resolution intro
duced in the State Senate in 1866, in
regard TO negro suffrage, paraded be-
fore the public, because it knows that
sensible cOlored people will refuse to
support a man, who several years al
ter their freedom, wished TO forbid
them the proud prerogative OF the
American citizen and by taxing them
without allowing representation, keep
them in even worse bondage than be-
fore. But If it does act on the Com
mercial like a red rag shaken in the
face of bull, we can not refrain from
again presenting it to the public, and
for the sake ofemphasis we employ the
beautiful italic:

The Mining & Scientific Press pub lished by Dewey & Co. of San Fran cisco is one of the most valued of our exchanges. Whenever we find it on our table we naturally reach for the scissors, knowing from past experience that every fresh number contains something of general in terest to any community. The last issue, containing double the usual amount of reading mattsr, was es- pecially devoted to Arizona and its mines. In this connection we note with pleasure that Mohave county is beginning to attract that attention among mining journals which it has long deserved, but has hitherto been denied.

"More lechery," is the heading of the leader in the last Idaho Avalanche. It has reference to the Mormons. As we see those people in this Territory, they are industrious, frugal and thrifty, and are making our mountain valleys blossom like the rose. So far as we know they do not practice po- lygamy, and for the rest of their religious beliefs and observances, if they suit them, it is their own funeral. Much as we detest the polygamic sell sualists of Mormondom we believe that their chiefest offender is, in all the attributes of manhood, Hyperion to Satyr compared with the foul de- bauchee at San Carlos, whose passions run riot with his reason. Tie Nor mon is by education polygan,ist, and it has been the practice in his church. es; the San Carlos Indian Agent Vii: COX, born a christian, and surrounded by christian influences, is worse than a polygamist, because he makes pros titutes without covering them with the diaphonous drapery of Utah mat rimony.
