THE trial, at Cleveland, of Gorsuch, the
professional anarchist from Chicago, is set
for July o. If he gets his deserts he will be
sent to the penitentiary for term of years
Some of his utterances in his recent attempt
to incite striking laborers to begin riot were
as follows: death to capitalsts;' death to
the Chisholms;" "The workingman must
murder the C cal operator and the capitalist;
defy the city authorities, defy your en-
ployers, and use your weapons ''The laborer
must have his revenge, and the way to &C
complish this is to murder the capitalist,
murder his wife, murder his child;' awe
must fight the capitalist and the authorities
with the sword, powder and ball, and the
weapon of the anarchists dynamite" A man
who can deliberately give utterance to such
undemocratic un-American sentiments is unfit
to enjoy the privileges of citizenship. He is
the greatest enemy that the honest working
man has

THE President is having a monkey and par
rot time relative to diplomatic appointments
to Austria. Kelley made such an ass of him
self that he could not expect to be acceptable
and now the appointment Of C. D. Jonas, of
Racine, as consul atPraguc seems equally un-
fit. Jonas had the assurance to want to 90 to
Vienna and explain himself, but he will now
be disposed of by being sent elsewhere. In
reaching down into the Democratic grab-bag
the President has made some serious mistakes.

THE Washington Post, administration or
gan, was burned out last Thursday, but rose
from its ashes next day to proclaim that Mr.
Cleveland enjoys the cordial sympathy and
profound approval of his party in his efforts to
inaugurate purer practices and to establish a
higher standard in politics. Mr.. Cleveland
has set out, says the Post, to demonstrate the
possibility of republican form of govern
ment in which the demagogue and the trick
ster shall have no place; in which honesty,
good repute, the peoples welfare and the
eOuntry's prosperity will overshadow all other
considerations. "He is, ;" says the organ &C.
statically, approaching his purpose prayer
fully and with full realization of the obsta-
cles which usage, custom, party morals and
human selhshness have prepared for him. "
BY singular oversight the Post negle,ts TO
cap this climax with certified diagram of the
prayer used by the President when seeking di-
vine guidance on the matters in question Owing
to this omission and the we'll known propensity
of the chief executive for using those script

THE meanest man Of the season lives in Bos-

How much wood did l have leftl Wood 81 per

question, or, in fact any question of puzziing
nature at this time of excessive heat should be
pillored. 1t will be observed, too, that his fiend-
ish malignity was not satisfied with proposing
an abominabe conurdrum in vulgar fractions.

COMPLAINT comes from various portions of
the State, notably from Wabash and Della
ware countless that fire insurance agents are
giving farmers great deal of trouble in in
ducing them to cancel policies in one COM
pany in order to make application to another.
One case is reported where farmer who was
insured by perfectly solvent company was
induced to have it Cancelled because Of reports
by the agent of another company He took a
policy in the company this agent represented,
and in few weeks was told by the agent of
still another company that it was not fair
company, so he Cancelled again, and in two
weeks, being convinced by a fourth agent that
the last company swindled its policy
holders, Cancelled a fourth time. lie
has now learned that each company is per-
tectly sound, and he is swearing mad about it.
Companies allowing their agents to make false
representations of other companies in order to
induce cancellation of existing policies,
should be reported to the Auditor Of State,
and if the offense is repeated license to do
business in the St4e should be revoked. In
surance agents are diligent in season and out,
and for this they deserve credit, but there is
such thing as being too Jealous and they
should be restrained by their companies at
that point. The Auditor of State might do
well to keep an eve on companies seeking
business by traducing other companies.

A number of Democratic politicians from Ken
lucky and Indiana are at Washington seeking to
induce the Navy Department to authorize the
construction of some of the new steel cruisers
at New Albany and Jacksonville, on the Ohio
river This scheme may partly explain why it
is that the Democratic administration and press
have shown more anxiety to break down John
Roach than make a point against the late adj

THE OFFENSIVE CRAFTSMANSHIP FARCE.

IHE 'UFFENSlVE PARTlSANSHlP" FAkOE,
Partisanship scoundrelism, intent on manu-
featuring reasons for its preparation, can
hardly go further nor descend to lower depths
of meanness than has the present administra-
ton since its advent to power. Not content
with gathering in the spoils of victory, it
must put stain on the honor, cloud on the
title Of the faithful and honorable men who
are ousted to make room for Democrats. This
outrage has become so bald that even honest
Democrats are disguised with it, and Mr.
Hendricks;- the champion Of the spoils
idea, shines by contrast with the men who
are pusillanimous enough to want to put the
badge of shame upon those thrown out in
order to make poor apology for the rapacity
that impels them. Even the Washington
Post. admitted to be the administration 5
organ, is disguised and sick of the pitiful
farce, and declares itself in the following
wholesome fashion:
''The now hackneyed cry Of offensive par
tisanship' has become a mere scandalous pre-
text. 1t has outgrown the definition Of its
author, and become an unmanageable peril
instead Of an instrument Of good. It has
bred meanness, persecution, falsehood and
cowardce. Employed to further personal re-
venge, TO- wreak injury upon the innocent, to
divert attention from the guilty and TO serve
the ends of spoils-seeking rapacity rather than
Of honest and upright government, it ought
to be stricken from the vocabulary of the
Cleveland administration, as it has already
been from that Of every fair minded and
equityloving citizen
1t is libel on ordinary intelligence to think
that such a pretense would deceive anybody
with sense enough to eat when hungry. TIE
Democratic party is proving Itself an uncon-
says of this ''scandalous pretext, it is but a
mask worn while wreaking injury upon the
innocent 'to divert attention from the guilty
and to serve the ends of spoils-seeking rapac-
ity rather than of honest and upright govern
ment." The mask has been torn
off, and the dirty business is
becoming such a stencil that decent Demo
Gratis are fastening to disown responsibility.
The same fell spirit has been maifested in the
relentless warfare made upon the builder of
the dispatch boat Dolphin until at last he
succumbs, closes out his business and goes
into bankruptcy in order to escape further
persecution. The contest is wholly one-sided,
and Republicans can do nothing but submit
TO these rereated ouiraCes We fniSiudoe the
temper of the people if this does rot produce
a reaction on the perpetrators. The Jack
sonian idea is infinitely more dignified, more
decent than this. The meretricious parade
of.reform is farce played to the end. It no
longer deceives nor amuses, and those who
have chosen to act in it will be obliged to come
out of it and show their hands. Anything is
preferable, and almost anything must prove
more profitable in the end.
