Very Suggestive.

The Pennsylvania ant-BLAISB Republi.
cans have issued an address. which is pub
lished In the Philadelphia Evening Tie
graph. The address reviews Mr.. BLAIss's
public record; states that above all in inn
portance is the tissue which the Republi-
can party raised when II nominated as ii.
candidate man convicted out OF its own
mouth OF prostitutng for gain the public
trust confided IN him." and declares that
the authors Of the address Z" fail 10 see how
any citizen can read the correspondence
between Mr.. BLAINE and Mr.. WARREN
FISHER, Jr., with the evidence taken by
the Judiciary Committee OF the Forty
fourth Congress, and not be convinced that
Mr.. BLAINE was eager to sell his official po-
sltion and use bis official influence as
Speaker Of the House In whatever manner
might serve best his personal Interests"
The address further states tina! the ticket

candidate, and adds:

OHIO AND WEST VIRGINIA.
ONE WEEK BEFORE TIE FIGHT.

Two Views or the Situation In the Buckevs

Virginia MI RiHht.
In order that the readers OF the Dispatch
may be in position to form impartial iudg-
ment as to the probable outcome IN Ohio
on Tuesday next, we give below special
kilograms from two different sources re-
gsrding the situation In that State. These
specials are in response TO instructions TO
send facts. Our only comment JUS, here IL
that our readers should bear in mind that
while our Cleveland correspondent accom-
panied Mr.. BLAINE. and therefore necessa-
rily received his impressions amid great ex-
citement, our Columbus correspondent
was at the headquarters OF both political
PARTIES, where hurrah and enthusiasm could
be counted and discounted for exactly what
they are worth. We also present comnre-
hensive special. summing up tie situation
IN West Virginia, Which fully sustains the
position we have always taken that that
state will 90 Democratic on next Tuesday

Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1884-10-07

We are requested 20 state In the Dispatch
whether General LEWIS CAss ever acted as
President Of the United States for any
time, however short. We have examined
LaumGn, SpOford, Hickey, and appleton.
Neither makes mention OF any such event
in his history. Besides, we can ourselves
recollect all the Presidents who have
served since General CAss returned from
France. Again; he never held any office
that would have entitled him to serve as
President in any case. He was only
Secretary Of War under General JACKSON.
We once heard General CAss speak in the
United States Senate. We may claim to
have had a slight personal acquaintance with
him. We recollect distinctly that he once
wished 30 send by us (his prooi-resder) five
dollars TO the printers who had put INTO
type some Of his bad manuscript.

The Indianapolis journal., 1884-03-12
THE COST OF GOVERNMENT.
The Extraordinary Cost of Insanity In
quests to the General Treasury.
The Amount of Stationery Used in the
Clerks Office and in the COurtS-Al-
lOwaRces for the Year 1888.

The greater portion of the revenue of the
Office of county clerk comes from htigated cases,
as any person who has indulged in litigation al
ready knows but in addition to this no incon-
siderable amount, as the figures appended show,
is derived from allowances made by the county
commissioners directly out of the general treas
ury. In looking over this account for the year
1883 it will be seen that many hundreds of dol
lars worth of stationery are paid for, and it is
evident that IN the item of stationery there is
great extravaganza and waste. There may not
only be more of it bought than would be under
circumstances where the county was not the
paymaster but there may be less regard paid to
the price, and the quality is always the finest
and most expensive. The consumption of sta
tionery, paid for by the county is increasing year
after year, not only in the clerks and other
offices, but in the courts, lawyers sieze upon
county paid paper and other stationery and
make it their own with an obliquity that fire.
quently comes of long and intimate association
with the law, just as the crow at length grows
familiar with the sham man in the
cornfeld The depredations of lawyers are
chiefly upon supplies paid for by the county for
the courts, but the county clerks Office also
tributes to them. As matter of right there is
no more reason why lawyers should be fur
nshed stationery, much or little at the county's
expense, than that they should be furnished
shirts or shoes in that way 1t will be necessary,
however, to treat the court expenses and abuses
at another time. Attention is called to the
amount of fees paid the clerk in insanity in
quests Here are the allowances made to the
county clerk for the year 1853 by the county

THE COMMODORE'S REPORT.
W. P. Gallups Estimate of the Amounts
Needed at Lately Flooded Towns.

Mr.. w. P. Gallup, who has returned from a
trip along the Ohio river between Patriot and
Madison, reports that the money required to
make habitable the wrecked and damaged houses
of people actually deserving aid, in the six towns
that he visited, will not exceed $500. In the
places where the water was blown against the
houses by the gales during the flood, the damage
is far greater than when it was blown from
them. All along the river. however, an inordi-
nate greed is manifested to get all
that can be obtained. One small
village which asked the relief committee for So,
000 after dispute as to whether the amount
should be $4,000. had been, it was found, only
slightly damaged. Seven small frame houses
had been carried from their foundations, and all,
with the exception of two, were owned by men
in afluent circumstances The two houses could
be repaired and placed in better condition than
they were before for $35 ''Fhe idea seems to
be-" Mr.. Gallup remarks, that the losses of
everybody are to be reimbursed, not that the
relief fund is to make habitable the homes of
those who are without the means to repair the
