The New York Times in an editor

The New York Times in an editor
ial on the anti-Blaine revolt in Con-
nectieut says it will not do to desig-
nate as s'dudes" the two hundred Re-
publicans of New Haven who have
just announced that they will oppose
the election of Blaine. It says:
''There are in the list the names of
many active business men and manu-
facturers. Dry goods merchants,
carriagemakers and retail dealers
whose names have been well known
in the city for years stand by the side
of college professors, clergymen,
lawyers, doctors and old workers in
the Republican party" Itlooks as il
the land of steady habits win be
rather unsteady in its support of the
Star route candidates. And there are
great many interesting back coun.
ties to hear from.

General James W. Denver, whose
name adorns the great Colorado city,
is quite generally alluded to in Wash
ington as Democratic ''dark horse
in grooming for the Presidency. In
a recent expression of his views on
the tariff question, General Denver
said: ga tariff being a tax, and the
powers of taxation being limited to
the necessities of the government for
revenue, it is gross abuse of legisla-
tive power to so fix a tariff or assess
tax that it imposes great burdens
on one part of the people and confers
great benefits and privileges on
another part, which is sound ''tarif
for revenue only" doctrine.

More frauds crop out in the navy
department. The chief clerk of the
bureau of medicine and surgery and
a clerk in the same bureau have been
arrested on warrants charging them
with embezzlement and conspiracy to
defraud the government. The amount
which has been distracted is not stat.
ed and does not seem to be known,
but it is said the frauds extend over
a period of several years. How beauti-
fully clean that Democratic broom
will sweep the country's business
offices at the capital!
The Bossier banner. [volume] (Bellevue, Bossier Parish, La.) 1859-1952, 1884-07-03

The Baton Rouge Truth has this
to say of United States Senator
Randall L. Gibson's speech in the
late State Democratic Convention:
"He fraud denounced in unmis-
taxable terms. He stated that the
ballot box must be preserved invio.
late; it is the fountain from which
springs the freedom and liberty of
our people, and when that spriug is
poisoned by fraud, the virus per.
meates the whole body polite, and
necessarily produces disruption and
death. This shows what people
think of the manner in which our
last election was conducted, who
view it dispassionately from a dis
tance.n
