from the fact that one of the most decor

offered few weeks ago by Senator Bayard,
condemning The use OF dynamite, has given

PORTER AND PoLYeAMY.

Ex-Governor Porter does not propose to
be shelved yet. Under cover OF an "inter-
view" in yesterdays Journal he managed to
rid himself OF quite stump speech. 1t is
somewhat "stringy," and floats out on the
cool March breezes in detached sentences.
Here is a gem-not genuine, but snowy and
Iinohback from Mr. PorterIS effort:
The Presidents views on the suppression OF
polygamy are not in harmony with what mas been
me growing sentiment of his party, which has
hoped, by being neutral, II not tolerant on the
question: to make itself popular with Mormons
ana by admitting tab 10 make sure of an add
tioral Democratic state,
This looks very much like some OF the old
attempts of the Ex-Governor in the line of
demagogism. The Republican party were
in power twenty. five years. Why did they
not make movement during this quarter
of century for the suppression of polygamy?
During this entire period the Mormons
have fiourished and increased as they never
did before, and now comes one of the Repub-
lican army OF great expectations and
intimates that the Democratic party are re-
sponsible for the present status of polygamy.
How is it possible for Utah to be admitted
to the Union by the Democrats with the
Senate Republican?
Another point on this subject. Does Mr..
Porter not know that the only serious and
aggressive movement against the Mormons
was made by Democratic Administration
that of Mr.. Buchanan?

WE AGREE.

Reading the comments OF the Chicago News
On the inaugural address, reminds the Sem
tinel OF the statement Of the Virginia co..
ored minister after q white clergyman from
Baltimore bad just preached to his congrega-

to whom the pastor said II 'spsct you all

the Chicsgo News editorial, but it has the
ring of our own comments on the inaugural,
as read: "Grover Clevelands inaugural mes

partisan zeal. Not for party but for country
is the sentiment of one portion OF his mes

THE WASHINGTON correspondent of

THE Washington correspondent OF the Cincin-
natl Gazette makes this startling revelation
To an old Ool-bOy friend of his in New York
Mr.. Cleveland said that he had no objection to
legitimate assault upon him In a political way,
but that he is almost abnormally sensitive upon
any attack upon him personally, and particularly
in the Halpin matter. Every paper that men,
toned that matter he hiss the name down in his
pocketbook, and his blacklist contains the name
of every man who was instru mental in circulating
that story. He said to Mr.. sprague, formerly of
the Emery Hotel in Cincinnati, and an old per-
soIral friend:
"I will never forgive the men who aided In the
circulation OF this scandal about me. | do not
deny the allegations and never have, but they had
nothing to do with my fitness qualifications
for the Office to which have been elected
This blacklist rules out all the Republican pa
pers, including the Chicago Tribune, and those
Democratic papers which first told the Halpin
adultery story. There will be no pie or plum
pudding for the men who circulated the scandal
Gus truth, thus showing 1t is not safe TO tell the
truth az all times; and yet Grover was credited
with the heroic saying to his friends: Tell the
truth about me and Marian" But ii seems now
that he did not mesn it.-Chicago Tribune.
There was about a ton of other scandals
and lies piled en- the original allegations
The Chicago Tribune never missed the dirti-
est of the lot. 1t very properly takes its
place in line-gravitating with unerring in
stiDct to its own place. How happily nat
ural law works when let alone.
