Walt for the Result,

There is a good deal Of wild talk about
the economy of the administration. 1t
is said to be saving thousands in one de-
partment, hundreds of thousands In another,
and millions in the public service generally.
Much Of this is mere bosh, suggestive
of "COl, Sellers" and his great eye water
scheme.
Without desiring to detract one iota from
whatever of credit may be due to the ad-
ministration, it is pertinent to suggest
that the discharge of employees is not neces-
sarily saving of public money. The close
of President Cleveland's term will be the
time to foot up and compare accounts,
If the places vacated by discharges re-
main vacant without detriment to the SER
vice; If the revenues are faithfully collected
and honestly disbursed If Democratic
hatred Of the revenue system does not show
itself in decreased collections; II the turn
ing out of tried and competent collectors
and putting in new men from party that
avows its hostility to the revenue laws does
not prove disastrous-ifnone of these things
happen, the Cleveland administration will
have earned the gratitude of the country
for sound economy.

What tIle veterans Demand.

In an editorial commencing the Grand
Army of the Republic for opposing the
movement to pension every survivor of the
Union army, the Lawrence american says
"If Congress docs not right speedily heed
the voice Of three hundred thousand vet
Grams, pleading for such q modification Of
existing laws as will secure a settlement of
the quarter of million Of pending cases
before the applicants are in their graves,
there will be such demand for the cutting
of the red tape by the passage of a uni
vcrsal pension bill that it cannot be re-
sisted.n
The New York Herald, heartily approving
the above, remarks that "every veteran who
needs and deserves pension, which is de-
layed year after year, has scores of sympa-
thizers who would urge the passage of al
most any law which would compel de-
cisions before the applicants are in their
graves Indignation and despair at the
intolerable delay to which thousands Of
needy veterans were subjected induced
the principal backing of the movement
which the Grand Army has just con-
demned.n
1t is fact that honest claimants of PEN
sions, in large numbers, are now suffering
extreme penury because their claims have
not been adjudicated or have been "hung
up" by reason of trivial technicalities.

Concerning Two Parties.

The New York WOrld, which generally
docs its funny business with serious intent,
gravely remarks that sit will be fortunate
for the United States II the Republican
party remains alive as powerful and vigil
liant opponent Of the Democracy
''If the Republican party remains alive"
is good The party that defeated the
Democracy in six successive quadrennial
campaigns, and a small detachment OF
which, in single state, saved the Democracy
from defeat in the seventh; the party which
has I'm IFS membership large majority of
the voting population, and which would
hold the executive Office and the national
House Of Representatives to-day II murder
and fraud had not destroyed elections in
eight states; the party whose record chal-
lenges the admiration OF enlightened minds
in all lands, whose past Is full of glory, whose
present is bright with hope, whose future
is big with promise; the party that saved
the country, restored the Union, wiped out
the one great curse, guided the nation
through the grandest era Of its history,
this party, let us assure the World, Is not
going to turn its face to the wall and die,
but proposes to resume its rightful place,
at the head Of national affairs, when the

The United States government has begun
the new fiscal year in far better condition
than that of any other nation on the globe.
While the strongest nations Of Europe are
having hard time to pay current expenses,
and some are actually getting deeper and
deeper in debt, we are steadily and rapidly
paying of our debt and hopefully looking
forward to the happy time of its complete
extinction.
With an income that Is ample for all uses,
with the balance of trade In our favor by
handsome margin, with peace at home and
the good will of all foreign powers, we can
look the world In the face unshamed; not
cxultng over the misfortunes or miseries
of other countries and peoples, but justly
proud Of our great achievements and firmly
confident in the strength Of our govern
ment and the bencflcent character of our
institutions.
1t is true that we have q short rop Of our
great cereal product, and that there is de-
| preston in some Of our industrial pursuits
by reason Of over-productlon or under-con-
sumption, II the latter phrase be preferred.
1t is fact that too many millions Of money
are idle in bank vaults for lack of chances
for profitable employment. 1t is true that
there is not much activity in the marts of
trade
But these facts do MT make gloomy
situation. They are incidents Of frequent
recurrence, for human wisdom cannot so
plan affairs that the tide of business will
flow on as regularly as the tides of the
| ocean.
The greatest privilege that any human
being can enjoy is that Of American citizen
ship. With all our political, social, and
financial troubles, coming and going us they
do, and as they will continue to do, we still
have the richest, freest, best governed, most
progressive and happiest country on which
Gods sunlight falls.
We are closing out the Tooth year of our
national independence with such past,
such a present, and such future as no other
nation in any age of the world has ever
! known.

Sir Nathaniel Rothschlld's father, Baron
Lionel dc Rothscbild, was the first Hebrew
elected to the house Of commons as early as
1s47. lie was prevented, however, from
taking his scat until 1853 on account OF the
obnoxious oath, which led TO repeated dis
cussiuns and numerous bills before parlia-
mont. The baron was nevertheless re-
elected TO represent the city of London In
the years 1sl9, 1862, and 1851. One of the
earliest and most daring of the Jewish mem
bcrs was the late Sir David Solomons, who
had the boldncss TO take his scat and vote
three times on the question of his right to
remain I'm the house. Among other jewish

PATENT orr1cr p1cruRrs.

The Contract Rcverts to Norris Pctors,
After an Attempt to Iirent His Mo-
nOpoly.
Mr.. Norris Peters has been awarded tho
contract for the photo-lithographic work
for the patent Office for the ensuing year ut
a figure slightly below that for which he
did the work last year. When the time
drew near for giving out the work for the
coming year, which involves the oxpendl-
ture Of many thousands Of dollars, the pat
ent Office received many propositions, the
lowest being that Of Bell Brothers, Mr.. Pc
ters coming next. The law approprlatlng
the money for payment Of the work speci
fies that IL shall lie done IN this city, pro-
vided the price is reasonable and that II can
be done In as iirst-class workmanship here
as elsewhere.
The question Of contention was the price,
and when the propositions were examined
II was found that Washington fell In It's
figures beneath the Graphic Company and
other outsiders. AS the Bell Brothers were
the lowest in their offer Commissioner
Montgomery was inclined TO give them the
work, provided they had the facilities for
performing II aud II was done in an accept
able manner. Before, however, entering

to give them trial. Accordingly the
plates for the issue of the Office for the 9TH
instant were decided TO be sent to them,
probably numbering some 800 IN ALL Very
little spare time is allowed for preparation.
The work has to 'bo done with
all speed possible in order to have
everything ready for the issue at the
appointed time. The first proofs sent to
the Office by the Bell Brothers were not
satisfactory, of which fact they were In
| formed, and the work was not done with
the expedition demanded by the Office.
After other trials Commissioner Mont
| gomery became satisfied that this firm were
not able to do the work to the satisfaction
of the Office and from that heretofore done
believed Mr.. Peters was, so contract was
entered into with the latter, who takes up
the work with the issue Of the 14th instant.
The Bell Brothers having entered upon the
preparing Of the plates for the issue of the
18th Instant will finish II at the request Of
the commissioner.

The justice of the verdict should not
serve, however, to shut the eyes of the
authorities to the fact that Mrs. Dudley is a
dangerous woman to be at large. Had she
killed Rossa there would have been few
tears shed, because of the dangerous and
outrageous character Of the man. But
there is no certainty that she may not take
it into her cranky head to shoot somebody
less Objectionable to the general public than
sorts Of freaks and delusions. Mrs. Dud-

picious that something was going on on ac-
count of the carriage waiting so long at the
corner. The crowd Of boys soon attracted

men came up. The crowd looked at the
