vc1rltIyS Figure or SPEECH

General Mcclellan whom the Democracy OF
New.Jersey are urging for Secretary OF War
under Cleveland. has been making speech at
n Democratic iambOree. This Is the way he Is
reported.
General Mcclellan was received with prolonged ap-
plause lie spoke for about forty minutes lie hened
the Democracy to an army that siy times I'm succession

Nevertheless Americans with memorioa VIII
be- surprised that he u,od II, Can II be possible
that the Democrat Mcclellan speaking to Dem
ocrats would talk as il ho or they really APP
proved of an army advancing boldly to an at
tack after it had been repulsedR In the light
of history we should say not. For it was this
same Mcclellan that ran for President in 1864
on Il platform which deprecated any further adj
vance of our boys i'll blue to an attack and spoke
of the attacks which they had already made
as failure"
However, Psychologists tell us that the human
body is entirely renewed once every seven
years. Perhaps in some organizations a similar
change takes place in that period in the incor-
poral parts In that case the Mcclellan of 1884
who is 50 much delighted with Democracy's
seventh attack possibly is not to be con-
founded with the Mcclellan of twenty years
earlier who stood on the platform in which his
marty asserted that the attack fol the Union
was failure.
We may add that we believe that General Nc
Clellan would be first rate Secretary of War.

THE c1TTLE News CONTENTION.


The convention of cattle raisers at st. Louis
has not yet developed so definite policy as to
allay the natural curiosity excited by this
gathering, but it has shown its intention to ask
Congress for whatever measures it may consider
necessary " for the protection of the stock in
terest generally" and especially for the
establishment of a stock trail upon which
cattle may be driven from one part of the
country to the other. No doubt both
this and all other novel propositions of like
nature will be more fully explained before they
are seriously laid before Congress And it is to
be hoped, "a most certainly it is expected, that
the latter body, while not refusing to enact any
legitimate measures for the protection OF the
national stock interests, will see to Ii that the
interests OF the country generally are effectively
protected against the aggressions and usurpa-
tons of the cattle men. The country indeed
mas heard little or nothing hitherto OF wrongs
suffered by this interest, but it has heard far
more than it likes concerning the abuses imputed
to the cattle men themselves. Ii is much more
than an idle rumor that in some Of the Terri
tories cattle kings and powerful semi-foreign
corporations have Systematically deGed the law
by&fencing In and holding large tracts of public
land to which they possess no title that they
have in like manner seIzed and nclosed water
courses, In order to get possession Of the
neighboring ranges, useless without access TO
water that they have driven out poor settlers,

Constitutional Amendment, ont of the ], ,lO7,-
lG9 persons who voted At the late election only
6O3,042 expressed themselves ON the amend
ment limiting the Indebtedness OF cities OF over
100 900 inhabitants. In 1882, when the Judi

1t is gratifying to know that those three cities

the amendment, and less than one-third OF the
1O,3O4 given against it. In some of the coun-
ties no ballots either for or against the amend

SETTING DOWN ON KslFER.
A Washington Correspondent Gives
Him nu GycrhauItng.

Ex.Speaker Keifer, who discharged one
of the House stencgrapke-s 81 the close Of
the last session that he might give the
place to his nephew, who is not steno-
grspher, in order that the latter might
draw s., $50 during the recess for doing no
work at all, was before the committee on
accounts last week and told il the reason
the correspondents had raided him so
severely was because he had refused 10 help
some Of them put through a private bill
in which they were interested. This re-
mark brought Gen. Boynton, of the Gin
cinnsti Commercial Gazette, out in card
Yesterday in which he states that the pri-
lief of William MeGsrrahsn, which
he had, without promise of
or acceptance Of consideration but from
pure sympathy with q man despoiled OF
mis- property by q million aiTe corporation
supported for years past in his puollc cor
respondence. Toward the close Of the last
session he wrote q note to Keifer asking
that the Speaker would recognize some
member to ask for the test OF vote, to
which Keifer promptly replied, saying that
the REQUEST was taiE AOu ptOPer duu tuaI ue
bad already made promise in accordance
with it. The money interest was opposed
10 such test vote and Keiter failed to keep
his promise. In reviewing the matter Gen.
Boynton says that unless the e1+Spesker
had virtually declined before the commit
tee that he violated his promises, and went
over to the side of the corporation OF mil
lionsires. il would never have been suS
D, Cted, as the general supposition Was that
the four hundred private bills on the cal
endar failed because in the rush of the
closing days It was impossible to resch
them.
IF the request made in this case was
proper General Keifer's use of it is dihonor
able and cowardly. II il was improper 10
any degree he neglected his sworn duty in
not INN ediately revoking his cards of sd,
mission to the press gallery for all CORES
popdents involved. Instead OF this he
promptly replied that the request vas fair
and that be had already promised compli-
ance. Now he says he defeated the bill.
which implies that il wss improper, since
for a Speaker to defeat q proper measure
would be to prostitute his oaics to i'm.
proper interests.
