A WORTHY

Congressman Pulitzer. of the ninth
New York district, has taken a very
commendable course in regard to the ap.
pointment of q cadet to the West Point
military academy. He has concluded
not only to select the candidate by a
public competitive examination, but to
limit the competitors to fatherlsas boys,
now and for a year past actual residents
in his district, and who have received
their education In the free schools of New
York city. Should a candidate be Sc.
lected and subsequently pass the exam.
instion for admission at West Point, the
expenses of his proper outfit will be
borne by Mr.. Pulitzer, who has placed
| $500 In the hands of the committee,
1t Is not often that congressman treat
their constituents as fairly as Mr.. Pull
itzer has In the selection of a West Poin'
cadet. As g rule congressman regard
cadetships In the came light that LEY d.
other eff ial perqulaites, and accordingly
use them In the payment of politica
debts, without any attempt to aware
them by competitive Examination. TIL,
liberality of Mr.. Pulitzer in promising t.
pay the outitting expenses of the cue
c~essful competitive candidate is probabl
the first Instance of the kind on record
He has certainly set a worthy example t
congressman generally, with whose usua
course in the disposal of cadetships hi
conduct is in most pleasing contrast.

AN STORY.

1t is currently reported from Washington
that every night by 10 o'clock Mr.. james G
Blame is aPprised Of what has been done
during the day in every department of the
government. This information is impaired
to him by republican Office holders who are
retained in office. While protesting non.par.
tisahism in order to retain their place, these
fellows are acting as spies upon an admins
trstion to which they are at heart bitterly
opposed. The sooner the official ak is ap.
piled to their heads the better for the admin
istration, which should be in the hands of its
friends. These republican spies at Washing.
ton frequently boast that they are quarter
ing on the enemy" and g~leefully jingle the
dollars they receive from the treasury in pay
ment Of their salaries, declaring that they are
pulling the wool over the eyes Of q demo-
cratic administration that was chosen in order
that there might be o radical change in de-
partments that were known to be corrupt
under republican rule. Cleveland Plain
dealer.
Aside from the malice displayed, there
never Was q more absurd canard Get
aAoat than the above. Even If true,
what earthly use would Mr.. Blaine have
tor any information such as is referred
tot We Imagine that Mr.. Blaine Is not
losing any sleep over what is going on In
tho departments. SO far as the republi-
can ofice.holders are concerned, the
charge that they are acting az spies Ia
maliciously false. That they should wish
to remain In Office as long as possible Ia
but natural, but how they are "quarter.
ing on the enemy is something we can
not quits understand. We sre not aware
that there 10 an enemy In this country
just OF present. There was o time, how
ever, when the national capital was full
of spies in the interest OF an enemy
Those spies were democrats, and thu
enemy was the ~confederacy of rebels. l
is true that the republican ofice-holder
''g~leefully Jingle the dollars they receive
from the treasury In payment o
their Salaries" but they earl
these salaries, and the dol
lars do not come from tn
pockets of the democrats alone, but iron
the people. The democrats will Eool
have the full benefit of the dollars in tn
treasury, thanks to an honest republican
< administration of the treasury depart
. ment. When the republicans came int
l power tw%enty-four years ago they foun
u the treasury empty, every dollar hsvip
Il been stolen by democrats. 1t will hardl
g do for democrats to talk about corruptio
under republican rule. So far but con
! paratively little corruption or dishonest
has been unearthed. If the democrat
n party remains in power a quarter of
= century it will indeed be fortunate If
d the end of that period 1t can show 9
n clean a record as that of the republican,

RED CLOUD not only wants McGilli,
cuddy's scalp, but he is still bsggiug for
that ancient claim of $4,000 for ponies
taken from him by Gen. Mckenzie in
1876. 1t is understood that DR.. Bland,
who has made himself conspicuous as an
agitator in the affairs at Pine Ridge, has
been promised $4,000 by Red Cloud in
case the claim is allowed and McGilli,
cuddy ia removed. This explains the
deep interest taken in Red Cloud by DR..
Bland, who has declared that he viii
practice medicine among Red Clouds In
dams in the event of his success. 1t II
not likely that the claim will be allowed
and when this Is definitely settled w
shall see whether Bland continues such
warm friend of Red Cloud as he pretendI
to be.

PARTING OF THE WAYS.
Democratic Leaders Make "A Plain
Suggestion & the President.

The Washington correspondent of the
New York Sun says: The conference of
democratic leaders gathered here from q
number of states for the last week have
had In view the vatal necessity of placing
the administration on a line of policy
which cannot be better described than by
saying that II Is the same as has been
steadily advocated by the Sun. The
president has been kindly and plsinly
told that on no other can his administra.
ton hope for success, and that by going
ahead on q line displessing to the repre-
aentatives of the democratic sentiment oil
the country, he will speedily come to the
parting of the ways.
In these conferences such democratic
leaders as Randall, Barnum, Smal!ey,
Beck, Voorhees,, Payne and others have
taken n prominent part. Mr.. Kaudalli
r. coyery SO far "a to able to be active wa
the signal for q comparison of views, Tit
Illustration, they hold, must b.
democratic or mugwump. If it is to b.
democratic it must take more distinct,

action rather than that of the presidents
1t is one thing to have democrats ap
pointed to ofl.e, but another to hav'
democrats appointed In accordance will
the wishes of those democrat
to whom the party, If i
Is to prosper, must look to fgh
Its battles in the future. If there is tt
be no mistake about the grounds of pres
ent expectations, the latter idea is to pre-
vail, and the mugwumps will have to b
content with what they have got or will
get hereafter only by common consent
1t can be distinctly asserted that by III
leaders of the party who ere active 1
their efforts to place the administrator
on the line of safety, the wisdom of tn
Suns views and counsels Is fully recog
nized. On hat line alone can succer

THK city council has decided to make
extensive repairs and improvements in
Hansoom park. This action is timely, as
the park has been altogether tco much
neglected of late. The fences have been
broken down here and there and cattle
have been allowed to make q pasture In
the park. Hsnscom park should be kept
up In good condition, and bs made an
attractive resort, so that 1t will be a pride
and pleasure to u citizens, and the ad-
miratlon of visitors. This can all be done
by the judiOious expenditure of a com
paratively small sum of money every
year. There Is no rsason why the park
should not be made one of the most
beautiful resorts In the country.

OUR heart goes out in sympathy for the
alleged hall club hailing from Omaha, The
nine men who hold positions in that athletic
combination ought to throw up their jobs and
hire out to work on a FARM Fremont Tri-
bune.
There has been altogether too much
sympathy wasted upon omsha on &C
count of that base ball nine, which Is ar
Omaha club only In name and not II
fact. 1t was not organized here but ir
Kansas City and was given the name o.
the Omaha club simply because the west
ern league wanted TO use Omaha as 81

Washington Correspondence New York
World.
/ heard of a popularity of Gen. Sher-
man the other day which should be noted
by those who are to write bis future his
tory. The general Is very fond of good
whisky. When he was on the active list
every morning before he started out for
the war department be used to stop atthe
bar just above Wizards hotel for a morn
ing drink. In Washington a single drink
OF whisky is fifteen cents. Two drinks
are given for a quarter. Van Vltet,
when he was quartermaster general, used
to start ont with Sherman at the same
time 80 that they could take their morn.
ing drink together. They lived next
door to each other, and through this ar
rsngement of starting out together
they were able to save two
cents and q half upon each of their
morning drinks. Sherman would pay
one day and Van Vlies another. There
WAS always o dispute between them as t.
who should pay, each insisting that he
had paid upon the day previous Ooca-
sionslly Sherman would come in alone,
having missed Van Viiet. Then a funny
little comedy would always ensue. The
general of the army of the United
States, after having tossed off four OF
five fingfr,, would begin to tumble in
his waIstcoat; then he would say; ~
have changed my waistcoat this morn.
ing. l have no change" He would next
say: "Chalk 1t dawn and l will pay you
tomorrow morning." The next day he
would come in for his morning drink
and then put down a quarter
in satisfaction for the two drinks
the owner of the bar said he wa!
never able to get whisky q. a low enough
wholesale rate to get his money back ou'
of Sherman. Up near the war depart
ment was another restaurant. This wa
a military resort, chiefly ~patronizsd by
officers of the army and the officials Of
the war department. General Sherman't
lunch here was a big drink of straight
whisky. He would come over about II
o clock and call for his special bottle. He
weuld pour out q stiff drink, and then
would lay down ten cents and walk out,
He was the only patron of the restaurant
who got his drink for this price. The
generol Of the army used to be Just as
economical In his smoking. He would
never buy cigsrs for his W use hat cost

THE city council has very properly
taken steps to confer with the board Of
education in regard to the erection of q
city hall building. The board Of educa.
ton Is now located In q private building
and is obliged of course to pay rent for
it's quarters which are at best not as com.
modlous, convenient and safe as they
would be in a substantial fire-proof pub
lie structure. 1t would be eminently
proper for the board to join the council
In the erection of the proposed city hall
SO as to be able to designate what portion
of the building 1t desires TO occupy.
This can be done much better when the
plans are being drawn than after the
completion Of the building. The city
hall will probably cost in the ~neighbor.

THE city council has appointed a com.
mIttee to locate q market house on st.
Mays Avenue. This action has beer
taken, we presume, on account of the
property owners on Capitol avenue hav.
Ing protested against converting that
street into a market place. If the market
is to be located ON private grounds, or
grounds set apar! for that purpose, there
Is no doubt that the most available spot
would be the old linton Pacific base ball
park, between Sixteenth and Twentieth
streets. There is room enough there for
all time to come without blookadirg the
public ~thoroughtare. The location Is
central, the approaches are excellent
from all directions, and the street rail-
way Is already there. The only question
will be as to the cost of these grounds,
unless the city decides to lease them. 1t
seems to Us that a long time lease would
be almost a. good as q purchase. Mr..
Kountze, the owner, certainly ought to
be as willing to lease the property to the
city as he was to let q bsGs ball club have
1t. AS a matter of fact Mr.. Kountze
could retain considerable ground in the
immediate vicinity of the market house
which be could improve SO that 1t would
be worth almost as much as the whole
property 10 valued at to-day.
