TIME TO STOP THE DISGRACE.

The country has for twenty or twenty
five years closed its eyes to personal fit
ness in Presidential candidates and gem
erously elected Republican candidates.
IL has been repaid for this blind trust by
the presentation and election by the
party in power of the most corrupt, dis
reputable characters that lave ever oc-
| cupfed the Executive Mansion. The
country has stood by the Republican
party, but that party has basely in re-
turn betrayed the country.
GRANT was a notorious .jobber Will
President, and rings grew up with a
mushroom development until the whole
people were chagrinned, disgraced and
disguised with the rottenness of his ad-
m~inistrations. And such a man was
| selected over fIoRATIo SEYMOUR!
HAYES, a fraud, and a non-compos
mentis, a block Of wood, was then given
to the Union by the Republican party,
in exchange for the Unions continued
devotion to that party. And that miser-
able fraud was selected in preference to
such a statesman and reformer as SAM
uEL j. TIEDEN!
Then this party again rewarded the
people for their confidence by foistina
jas. A. GARFIELD upon them, a Credit
Mobilier. DE GOLFER .iObber, who had
periured himself most shamelessly in
the attempt to hide his rascality. And
this iobber was chosen as against. that
incompatible gentleman and soldier
states man, WINFIELD SCOTT HANCOCK!
GRANT in disgrace, HAYES in obscur-
ity, GARFIELD slain in a struggle over
spoils, and BLAINE, the present nomi-
nee of the party! Could a record be
more discreditable?
The pertinent question now is will the
masses of honest men in this country
continue to countenance such party
shamelessness and take any man whom
the Republican party selects for the
Presidency? Having insulted the
honesty and intelligence of the
country ahd betrayed public con-
idence so grossly in these strik-
ing instances, can the wrong and
ingratitude be further excused? Isn't
it about time to stop disgracing the Ma
ton and debauching the Presidential
office by the elevation of such men? If
the people have lost ali interest in pub
lie affairs and all sense of propriety or
shame, let them go on choosing such
men for rulers; but ii manhood n de-
cency are still at a premium or even par
in the United States, let the shameless,
corrupt Republican party be once for all
hurled from power.

IRELAND AND THE CASH BAL,
ANCE.

denomination with evoryshow ofsuccCss
Is striEingly illustrated every nov and
then. Old files, are, disagrocable often,
and in the event of "iop," are used
frequently TO great advantage.
Before the Houston convention the
News, OF Galveston, the Statesman and
other papers bitterly opposed IEELt%D,
and among other things had especially
II great deal to say about the reckless cN-
pcnditurc of the big cash balance left
by RpBEErs TIE JONES and MORTON
following may he calculated upon with
absolute certainty 10 reproduce those
editorials of the News. And in some
quarters they will have their effect.
4 few weeks since the News insisted
that the IRELAND administration had
squandcrcd most shamelessly the big
balance left by the RoBERTs adj
m~inistration. The HERALD demurred
10 this proposition and gave some fig
ures in these columns to refute the dec
la~rations of the News. T%hereupon the
News thought the HERALD quite YER
dant and wholly astray on figures. The
HERALD is not in the habit of running
off at Il tangent. IL generally knows
whereof il speaks.
In the issue Of Saturday we printed
the official figures from Austin. They
came from the books and may be de-
pended upon. The balance when IRE
Land wentin was 100000 in round num-
bers. Deficiencies were $l0l,0OO; Terrell
asylum, to build, was $l2S,00O; build
ing the addition of the Austin asy-
lum was $G5, 900; Improvements ut peni-
tentiaries, etc., S260,0OO, and various
other minor items that not only On
bausted the balance, but ran into the
appropriations for thel first IRELAND
year.
These are facts and indicate that not
only has the HERALD been here
tofore dealing fairly with the
pubic in it's discussions of the
work of the IRELAND administration,
but that that administration has been
one Of the most economical, patriotic,
conservative and satisfactory that the
State has had for years. 1t is well
enough for the public to treasure up
these facts. 1t is well enough to know
where to go to get the most authentic
news, undressed, uncolored, coldly i'm
partial and accurate when such news is
an item.

A GOOD LAW AFTER ALL.


If the civil service law had done
nothing more than check the inroads OF
Republican Campaign committees upon
the department employees at Washing
ton and the Federal o~tiiceholders
Throughout the country it ought to be
hailed as a good law, and meet with the
honest and enthusiastic supporter every
patriot in the land.
In 1850 The robbery of these various of
ficials by JAY HUBBELL and his crowd
was notorious. Several hundred thou
sand dollars were raised in this way and
used as a corruption fund by DORSEY
and company. 1t was money alone that
saved GARFIELD. 1t was the victory OF
corruption, open and shameless, and the
departments were forced to become a
party to the disgraceful proceedings.
Since then the civil service law has
rome into effect and daily is becoming
more effective in the special field which
it controls. The commissioners are APP
parently in earnest in their expressed
determination to see that the law is
strictly enforced, and are bravely and
honorably protecting employees from
these assessments.
PROF. GREGORY, II of the Commits
sioners and a Republican, has just re-
Gently written a letter with reference to
this matter of assessments that entities
the Professor to the respect OF his coun-
trymen and illustrates both the utility
and honorable, ~reformatory character Oh
the Commissioner. The following results
by the Professor are especially worthy
Of attentions:
"The grand intent of those sections Of
the civil-service act which relate to con
tributions for political purposes was
twofold: First, to prevent the use OF
Government places and Government
funds as forces to control
election; and second, to pro-
tect the Government employees from
compulsory contributions to political
funds. The government clerk is en-
ployed to work for the people, and not
for party, and his pay comes from the
people. and not from his party. What
lie Carl" l. tilflttilb MS OFI hiu ~ 10
the grosscst tyranny to cxtort from him
any part of his earnings by threat of re-
moval or by promise of promotion. The
clerk, outside his clerkship, is still.a
citizen, and as a citizen has a common
interest with all good citizens in the
progress and welfare of his country; the
common right to vote and express his
opinions; to form associations with
those of like opinions, and to use his
money, IN all lawful ways, to propagate
his opinions. As an officer
or employe of the government,
he is strictly under the authority
of Congress in all his official work and
relation, and must not violate any n
of the four prohibitions of the civil-ser-
vice act. The Interpretation of the civil
law is easy, and the path of duty
required by it is plain, to all who will
honestly regard its two grand aims:
