The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1884-12-25

The pension list is steadily grow
ing. and an enormous draft On the
public purse is made to meet the in
creasing obligations. For the pres
emit quarter the sum of SIT, 900, 600 is
demanded. Should the bill pass the
House, which has already passed the
Senate, the present pension claim
payment will be increased about
twenty-five millions a year. Much
doubt is expressed, however, as to its
becoming a law.

PendIeton and the Cabinet.
Buffalo Courier.

II COurier.
If Senator Pendleton's name is con.
sidered in connection with Cabinet
appointments it will not be done fol
the reason that he represents Ohio
but because he is an eminent Demo
C. atic leader, respected throughout
the country. But if a seat in the
Cabinet is not rendered to him the
reason viii! be in other circumstances
than in the hostility of the Cincinnati
politicians. The latter may rest as.
sured that President Cleveland i:
strongly committed to the mainten
ance Of the PeudIeton act, and that
his Administration will enfore the re
form law in its letter and spirit.

Considerable has been said by the
Republican press about the undue
representation of the South in the
Electoral College. Texas has Ii Flee
toral votes, aud gave Cleveland 223,
2O8 votes. Maine, New Hampshire,
Rhode Island, Vermont, Colorado and
Nevada-all Republican States, have
81 Electors-ll Electors more thar
TeXas-while their vote for Blaine az
gregated 2l9,369 less than Texas gave
TO Cleveland. 1t thus appears that the
Republicans i'll these six Republican
States are about twice as potential in
the Electoral College as the Demo-
cratic voters of Texas.

Just before the recent Presidential

Just before the recent Presidential
election a Democrat in Toledo bet
with a Republican that there would
be more men killed North of Mason
and Dixon's line than South of it on
election day. On the oath inst, the
result was canvassed and the Demo
crat won easily, there being two men
murdered at the polls in the North to
where there was one in the South.

Blaine will again lead the Republi-

mistaken. The Republican candi-

Our farmers should sing songs of
praise to the "good old party for the
glorious privilege of getting CT cents
a bushel for wheat; 80 cents for
corn $3.50 to $3.7 for hogs; 1915 to
$4.00 for clover-seed, and all their
other products in proportion. If the
Democratic administration, don't so
manage the National finances SO as to
"booss" the above prices within one
year after the 4th of next March, we
will then say that the "g. o. p" was
not to blame, and that the God of our
Israelite is not at his post. But with
the overgrown surplus in the Treas
ury paid out for bonds now due, the
wheels of trade and commerce must
and will be quickened. Let payments
begin after the 4th of March.

his family with his life, if need be-"
That this was done for political effect,
no intelligent person ever for a mo-
ment doubted. The Sentinel has re-
tracted nothing, and Mr.. Blaine has
ordered the suit Withdrawn and in
his letter says "the Democrats of In
diana are prejudiced against him aud
he knows he can't get justice in In,
dianap Before he makes such a
slanderous assertion he had better
try it.

The anti-Cleveland men are putting in their last
ticks with the hope OF defeating his candidacy. Not
only the Flower men are working against him, but
all those who have other candidates are uniting
their forces to cry him down.
The Bayard men are making desperate effort
to counteract the effect OF the publication OF the
Dover speech and the more recently discovered
speech In which the Delaware statesman referred

pudlation.
Those, however, who have for some time been
fearful OF the Senator's strength I'm New York,
growing out OF the supposed preference OF John
Kelly, seize upon this quite eagerly, and refuse TO
accept any explanation, saying that what they
want Is man who will not have to explain. The

generally that 20 present the name OF Flower

is that the delegation will go to Chicago unin-

The western men, however, say that Cleveland
