THE INAUGURAL.

In his inaugural address Mr.. Cleve-
land evidently started out to say moth
ing, and he did not succeed in saving
il well. People who expect 10 find in
such document a fOreshadowiug OF
public policy will be disappointed
when they read it from beginning To
end and discover only succession OF
platiiudes and Bunsbyisms. The first
halt of II is a feeble exposition of the
responsibilities of citizenship. il, i'll
deed, il is an exposition, feeble or
otherwise, of any fhing-and the sec
ond half consists of diluted extracts
from the Chicago Democratic plat
form. There is not, from beginning TO
end of il. what would mass for a
thought ON any subject. and its man
ner is quite rs dreary As its matter.
there not being a single sentence Of
vigorous English in the whole of it. Ii
has the single recommendation OF,
brevity, however. There Is not much
OF il. From this peint of view il will
be indorsed: but from this point of
view only. People who wish TO know
the new presidents views on the vital
questions OF the day-ihe silver ques-
ton, the tariff question, etc.--wiil have
TO wait until the new president shall
have acquired those views by contact
with people better informed than him

THE NORMAL SCHOOL LAND
FRAUD.

In replying 10 the EAGLES charge
that there was evidently croohedness
in the way the State Normal endow-
ment lands were disposed of, the pres
ident of the board, the Hon. Isaac
Sharp, a Click appointee, denied that
there was anything wrong, and sec
onded the EAGLES demand for an in
vestigation by the legislature. We
were afraid this bold front would
throw the legislature off its guard.
But the committee of Investigation
was appointed, consisting of Repre-
sentatives Clogston. Lawrence and
Miller, and Senators Young and Hum
phrey. The committee in their report
found that Z. 500 acres of these lands
were sold for So 50 per acre, as the
EAGLE charged, and that they were
worth from five to six dollars per acre.
and that the body was disposed of for
at least ten thousand dollars below
their actual value at the time thew
were sold. The committee concludes
its report of the whole matter in the
following words:
That all the conversations and nego- |
tiations leading TO and resting in the |
bargain and sale OF the land to Cross |
were had and made bv said Isaac Sharp |
and with a studied effort on the part Of |
both Sharp andCross TO consumate said
sale and avoid the solicitation of COM
peting bidders. as well as in disregard |
of sa' i-factory offers from responsible |
parties t" take the land nj a better
price, and on terms, in Other respects.
as those imposed upon Cross.
Your committee are Of the opinion
that said sale was made by collision
aud fraud: that the same was without
authority of law, and against the best
Interest of the school; and that the
responsibility therefor rests almost
wholly upon the president of said
board That in the opinion of YOUR
the said sale should be set
aside.

VERY SILLY.

Capt. Johnson said in the Uousc
last evening, that Maj HalloweIl and
Capt. Simpson, if they were true TO
themselves, or the party. would send
in their designations at once.''-Iour-
nal.
If Capt. Johnson as speaker of a
Republican House over gave expres-
sion TO any such sentiment we have
been mistaken in the man. Such A
course would not only be an endorse
ment of the spoils system idea but
would be simply aiding and making
smooth the road for the party of
spoils- Buncombe is not particularly
wanted now at the hand of Republi-
can politicians but rather good sense
and patriotic action.

Mr.. Cleveland saws in his inaugural:
Our citizens have the right to protec-
lion from the inconpeiency of public
employees who hold their places solely
as lie reward of partisan services. =
This is all very fine. but we Venture
the prediction that in less than one
yesr from now there will be larger
number of public employees who hold
their places solely as the reward of

THE WEST CUT.

In the eyes of Mr.. Cleveland the
west evidently don't amount TO much.
For the entire section he names inst
one man for his cabinet. and he the
president of the convention which
nominated Grover Cleveland. The
south and east make up this country
n our new presidents ewes. and to
these he looks for the future of the
Democratic party, and in a part,
Sense he shows wisdom. Democracy
has no hope in the great northwest.
