A most prominent factor in bringing
about the indictments against Messrs
Stonestrcet and Spaiding for giving
election day breakfast was the Chairman

miltee. H. has contendel with consid-
cradle vim tn / this practice wns in vio-

up. Now that lie has had himself en-
rolled as attorney to defend Spalding it
will be interesting 10 note his line Of
defense 1t may be, he will contend
it vas only wrong for the Republicans
TO engage in the practice, and not the
Democrats, and az Spalding claims TO be-

guilty of violating the bribery law 1t
will be a curious sight to see how a per-
son of his boasted consistency can blow
hot and cold with the same breath.

The Tribune's Jokes Abroad.

nc lIlDuilc . OOheS <ADi Oeblts
A st. Petersburg correspondent OF the
New York Sun concludes, after a careful
examination Of the Russian papers, that the
Russians "know actually nothing about
America" In support Of his conclusion he
quotes the following from the Nopoe Vre-
mia. the newsiest of Russian newspapers:
According to the latest news frOr' New
York concerning the coming election OF a
new President OF the United States, which
is to be held on March 4, 1895, victory will
be on the side OF the Democratic candidate,
Mr.. Cleveland, who had received 2i9 cleo
t0ral votes against 1872 votes for Mr.. Blaine.
With eighteen votes over the required ma
jOrity. Mr. Cleveland can be considered as
the next President OF The Union, provided,
however, that during the four months that
remain up 10 March 4, 1885, there shall not
happen some event which might force the
Democrats to put up another candidate.
IL this is fair sample OF Russian know
ledge in respect OF American affairs, 1t
must be admitted that the SUMS CORE.
spondent Is not far wrong. Yet tie man.
Der Ia which the Aouoe Yrenaia has mixed
matters is very easily accounted for. An
analysis OF the paragraph shows conclu-
sively that 1t is based upon some OF the
mathematical jokes that have appeared
from time TO time recently in the editorial
columns Of the New York Tribune. We
defy any one outside Of the United States,
who is not possessed Of "key" to
the 1ribune's "sums." TO tell from its
figures who is elected President OF
the United States. While the we'll
known aptitude Of the Russians for ac-
curing languages may enable them
to wrestle successfully with the Iribune'S
obsolete style 10 the matter Of words, 1t Is
too much to expect them to see fun in, aud
draw correct conclusions from. lot OF con-
fusing and intricate calculations that APP
pear to have been made in all seriousness,
but which are really cbullitions OF the
1ribttRe's expansive humor. We think,
therefore, that the Suns correspondent is
a little unjust TO the editor OF the Noroe
Tremia. The jokes Of the Tribune are
not half so easy for a foreigner TO see
through as was the joke the sun perpe-
trated during the last campaign in posing
as Democratic newspaper.
