The body of a tough customer was
found in a New Jersey canal the other
day with a bullet hole in the stomach. 1t
was a jew tramp named Lavner, who
was hanged by a mob in Bulgaria two
years ago, and was Exchanging two days,
when he was taken down and resuscita-
ted BY physicians, so it is alleged. He
then came to America and made $4,000
exhibiting himself throughout the coun-
try. He breathed through a rubber tube
in his throat.

The clear and evident intent of the CIVIL
service law is to put an end altogether to the
practice of making any call or request. which
in substance amounts to a blackmail demand,
for political subscriptions from persons in the
government service. If the artful plan of
evasion cOncocted by the Republican Con-
gressiOnal Committed is to be permitted, the
law is waste paper. 1t might as well never
have been enacted.

1t is asserted that ex-State Senator Ora
dy, Of New York, who recently resigned
his place on the Democratic State Central
Committee, will also leave Tammany
Hall unless it deserts the Democratic
party. 1t is reported that he will become
a campaign orator for Butler. It's thought
that he has forfeited all chances for politi-
cal advancement, and the question in
New York is whether he is cooked goose
or a dead cock in the pit.

We knew Butler would inject some fun
into the campaign. His latest joke Is
statement that he will retire from the
race if the Democrats and Republicans
will take both Cleveland and Blaine down
and make the newspapers quit calling
him Butler names. 1t is quite liberal
proposition, if anybody was very anxious
to get him down.

Both Blaine and Shoemaker appear to
be DESTROYS Of keeping their dirty law suit
before the people. The better elements Of
the country can feel little interest in it.
If Shoemaker has slandered Blaine, he
ought TO be made to respond in pecuniary
damages, which seem to be what the
plaintiff is after, with political capital in
addition. AS the Democratic party is in
no wise concerned in the charges, whether
false or not, there is no ground for making
the scandal case an issue in the campaign.

The New York Herald insists that But
Ter stole most of the ideas in his long adj
dress to his constituents from George
Francis Trains letters and speeches.
One day last week a Herald reporter in
terviewed Mr.. Train on this point. Mr..
Train has some queer notions that might
lead people to think that he isn't as sane
as he ought to be, but his memory APP
pears to be very good. To the reporter
Mr.. Train said:
Anyone can see that my short, peculiar
epigrams are scattered all through the
letter. 1t is the most cOnsummate piece
of robbery | have seen for long time.
To tell you the truth, Gen. Butler mas
been stealing my ideas and living upon
them for 10 years. 1t has been proposed
to have me run for Vice President on the
ticket with Butler because he has adopted
my speeches and political arguments. In
the first place, / would not accept the pc.
sItiOn on account of my repugnance to
communication with grown persons.
could not transact official business
through children very well. But, in adj
dition to this, l have another reason
which would be sufficient to make me
decline the nomination, and that is the
contempt l have for a man who would
steal my speeches. Butler made a speech
the other night in which he had the cool
assurance to tell two of my old Jokes,
which 1 told over 80 years ago. One of
them was about the fox and the flies, and
the other was about the manner in which
the politicians take into their camp men
who are possessed Of worldly abundance.
Now, if it is possible to insult me it is by
proposing to put me on the same ticket
with the biggest political fraud in the
country. Why, Butler is a regular fraud.
The idea of calling himself the working
mans friend!
Blaine is political jobber and Butler is
a plaglarist and fraud. They are very
pretty pair. Let the people beware of
them,

delays to which lumbermen are subjected

their boats with minimum number OF
sailors. OF course sailing vessels will
utilize their canvas when the wind is IA

That court martial of Cadet John A.
Logan, Jr., at West Point, appears to
have been a very quiet affair. Nothing
has been made known to the public eX-
cept the mere fact Of the acquittal OF the
accused. Since many army officers have
become mere politicians it is suspected
that the acquittal was not based on the
fact that the charges against Logan were
not true. but on a desire to shield the son
OF the Republican candidate for Vice
President. Under Republican rule the
army has become almost as corrupt as
the other departments Of the government.

The reputed father of the Republican
party has confessed at last. His name is
Joseph Warren, and he is a clerk in the
pension office at Washington. He says:
Il claim to be the originator of the Re-
publican party myself. 1 was the owner
and publisher Of the Detroit Tribune at
the time, and on July 6, 1854, one month
and one day before the sO-called founding
of the party at Stone, Me-, L called
Republican convention at jackson, Mich.
1t was after the repeal of the Missouri
compromise. 1 not only called the con-
vention to combine the old Wing and the
Free Soil parties, but 1 named the cOmbi-
nation the Republican party. Zach
Chandler and other Republicans IN Michi-
gan opposed this idea of the combination,
but it succeeded. No, sir, the credit of
founding the Republican party belongs to
Michigan, and not to Maine or Massa-
chusetts. which also claims it. Henry
Wilson, in his Rise and Fall of the Slave
Power gives Michigan the credit, as
well as myself the credit of calling the
convention. So does Judge Tourgee in
The FOOLS Errand.'" What a pity Mr..
Warren has been so retiring! He ought
TO have come into the last Republican
National Convention as a candidate for
the Presidency. What would be more
appropriate than for the originator of the
party to lay it away to rest next Novem-.

During the last few years the excellent
department of the negroes of the South
has often been remarked upon. There are,
of course, a good many bad negroes. There
are great many who are vagabonds,
great many who are thieves, a great many
who are drunkards, ETC., but the great ma
iority are devoting themselves with COM
mendable diligence to the improvement
of their condition and the education Of
their children.
AS an evidence of the progress of the
negro race in the United States, 1t sup
ports over a hundred newspapers, pub
lished by negroes, and subscribes for and
reads thousands Of copies of other papers
and periodicals. The large majority of
these negro papers are conducted in an
intelligent and conservative manner.
They appear to be making honest efforts
to elevate and improve the race.
There appears to be four or five negro
papers in different parts of the country,
however, that have fallen into evil hands.
They are no doubt run in the interests of
narrow-minded and INSCRIPTIONS politi-
clans, either white or black, who wish to
cause trouble between the races in order
to advance their own corrupt schemes.
They are filled weekly with in
cendiary appeals, which can have
effect only on the baser and more
ignorant members of the race. Even
these, it seems, can hardly be so obtuse
to the condition of the South and the
ability of the authorities to enforce order
as to be led into insurrectiOn by these
appeals. There is scarcely doubt that
these negro insurrectionists would be the
last to take part in the villainous move
ments they encourage.
Some of these fellows may. by their at
tempts to incite insurrection, place them
selves where the criminal laws can reach
them. Parties guilty of this crime are
severely punished under our laws. These
insurrectionists once convicted would not
be likely to attempt to disturb the peace
of the country again for good many
years. 1t would be well for them to take
warning before they go too far, and it is
too late, and to heed the advice and fol-
low the example of the Industrious, intel
ligent and influential members of their
race

A Good Man Going Wrong.

Senator Dawes made remarkable state
ment in a speech at EnglewOOd, New Jer-
sew, few days ago. He said: 81 should
be false to my duty and to the truth if did
not declare my solemn conviction that
there Is no man in public life whose pub
lie and private character is more free
from stain than that of Mr.. Blaine"
Dawes claims to be a very good man.
His strong point is his alleged piety and
purity. He Is so good that he Will not
listen to Senator Vance's stories, because
he thinks that life is too short and too
earnest to give any time to trifles and
amusements, and he is so pure that he pre-
tends to blush if any one of his brother
Senators happens to tell an anecdOte that
is susceptible of a rather broad cOnstruc-
ton, and yet this good man says publicly
that he is convinced that there is no man
in public life who is more free from stain
Of any kind than Blaine.
One of two things is certain: Either
Dawes has lived in Washington with his
eyes and ears closed, or else he has the
most elastic conscience of any
man in public life. Perhaps Dawes does
not think it wrong to play the part of
political jObber while occupying the re-
sponsible place of member of Congress.
IL so, then he is not good witness for
Blaine. But if he has a delicate sense OF
what an honorable and honest member of
Congress may do it is difficult to see how
he can sustain .Blaine's action in the
Little Rock bond business. If there is
any truth in what Blaine himself has
written Blaine proposed to use his posi-
ton as Speaker of the House of Represen-
tatives to aid the Little Rock scheme pro-
vided he was given certain
amount Of the bonds and stock of the
Little Rock and Fort Smith Railroad.
Dawes may not mean to deceive the au-
diences which he addresses, but to pre-
serve his own reputation for truth he
ought to read the Mulligan letters in order
to correct his apparent moral obliquity.
There is certainly something wrong with
l.
