The Rebuked Petitioner.

The rebuke administered by President
Cleveland to the man who signed the petition
and was surprised to find it complied with, is
one which good many respectable citizens
of the republic can take to themselves with
justice if not with profit. 1t is not very often
as the President intimates, that petitioners
are as frank in confessing as this particular
one is-though the same confession has been
made before. But it is one of the commonest
things in political life for men to sign recon-
mendations of applicants for Office whom
they we'll know to be unfit and whose ap-
pointment would disgust them unspeakably.
Often this is done carelessly, simply because
the request is made and it is easier to comply
than refuse; but almost as often it is due to
cowardice. The applicant is in some way in
huential or so regarded and the persons ap-
piled to for recommendation are not brave
enough to take the risk of offending him by
refusing. They would like, as did the man
the President rebuked, to have the appoint
ing power take the responsibility of treating
the applicant as his merits or dement's de-
serve. But for themselves they shirk the res
possibility. They belong to the same class
with the men who are always wanting the
newspapers to expose somebody, but are
never willing to put their names to the ex-
posure.

~ A sergeant of cavalry on active servi-
ces in Arizona against the Indians tries to
answer the inquiry, "Why don't the United
States troops catch the the raiding Apaches?'
He says that the Indians have from five to
seven good saddle horses each. The soldiers
are compelled to follow with one horse each
loaded down with blanket, overcoat, two can
teens, lariat, picket pin, side lines, nose bag
currycomb and brush, sometimes four to siz
days rations, pannikin, tin cup, and mum,
erous other little traps that are of no use, but
always in the way. Then comes the gun and
field belt, with fifty rounds of cartridges
with 1C0 more in the saddle pocket; then the
pistol and belt, with twenty -four pistol cart,
ridges. "Weigh man with all this" says
the sergeant, "and then turn him loose after
an Indian pony, with shell of a saddle a
gun and ammunition, and an almost nude
buck and see which wins in the race of SOC
miles, to say nothing of the bucks remounts
and perfect knowledge of the country.

- There are ominous mutterings of an
other strike in the Hooking Valley, and it is
liable to come at any time. No doubt the
wages paid the miners are small and should
be larger, but with all kinds Of business
struggling against the general depression,
and with thousands of men out of employ
ment in all directions, and on the. verge of
starvation, it seems to US that strike in the
valley now, which is still suffering from last
years troubles, would be the acme of folly,
and could have but one result--practical ruin
to all who are concerned in any way in the
industries Of that district.

General Grants Kindness to His Con-
quered Foes Never Forgotten.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, Aug, General
Joseph E. Johnston, who is to officiate
as one of the pallbearers at General
Grants funeral, will arrive in New
York tonight. On learning of his Sc
lection as pallbearer General Johnston,
who was in Portland, Or, took the first
train for the east. and his stop in this
city was very brief. He is reported as
having said while here:
".The first time I ever saw General
Grant was during the Mexican war.
He was a lieutenant then, and of course
no one saw in him the great general
which he proved to be. 1 know the
southern people feel kindly and have
always felt kindly toward General
Grant. They never forgot his kindness
the promptings of good heart-in
making the favorable conditions to
General Lee at the time of his surrender.
l don't speak from official information
but it was generally believed in the
south that Mr.. johnson, then president,
determined to make an example of
some of the southern generals. Cen
eral Lee was selected by him as one of
the men to be sacrificed. General
Grant resisted such proceeding. He said
that the nations honor was at stake as
by the conditions of the surrender Gen.
eral Lee stood in the way of Johnson's
scheme and saved many confederates
from death. The southern people re-
membered that. They knew that he
had soldiers heart, and they re-
spected him living and honor him
dead.U ~ If4 ~

~ Business men are wearing brighter
faces. The universal report is that collections
are coming in well. year ago when the
wheat crop was ready for the market there
was such an unsettled. condition of things
that farmers would not sell unless compelled
to by reason of crop mortgages. This year
there is nothing to indicate excessive chan
ges, and the farmers are letting go their pro-
duce, and it is to be hoped are paying their
debts to the storekeepers. Nothing can be
more helpful to general trade.

- The Republican platform of Virginia
declares in favor of pensioning Confederate
soldiers. The Democratic platform of the
same State does not. J. B. Foraker endorses
the Republican candidate and platform in
Virginia and wants to see them successful.
Let's see-what was it that the Republicans
used to say about "pensioning rebel soldiers?"
They used to have something in their plat
form and speeches ON that subject. Will
some one of them please tell the people what
it was?-Ohio Eagle.
