OF all the unworthy means resorted
to, to displace Republicans, the "ofen-
sive partisan dodge is the worst. Even
as bitter a partisan as Dana of the N.
Y. SIN protests against as mean sub
terfuge. To remove man from office
because he is an offensive partisan is a
bad idea. Every citizen ought to be
an offensive partisan, deeply interested
in the political principles which he has
adopted, and ready at any time to exert
himself to the utmost to gain predomi-
nance for them among the voters. 1t
appears that the Jefferson Club at
Washington has preferred charges of
offensive partisanship against eight hun
dred clerks in the departments, and
that a great number of them have been
removed because of those charges. If
this be true, we trust that the process
will speedily be stopped. Indeed, of
the two kinds, the offensive and the
inofensive, the latter are more objec-
tionable; and, besides, it is not right to
put peculiar stigma upon any man
who is honest and does his work rea-
sonably well. Turn them out because
they are earnest and jealous Republ-
cans

1t WAS considered by the Democratic
press during the Republican admilistra-
tions great scandal whenever on official
party mldc use of government ship for
travelling purposes. Whenever 4 sccre-
tary of the navy made use of a ship OF
navy for making Il tour of the navy yards
or naval stations, it WIS always called
a '..iunketing' tour.
When president Cleveland declined in
vitations of passes and palace cars from
Albany to Washington, and paid his fare
like any other citizen, the Democratic
press was greatly charmed. 1t took
great pride IN the contrast, as 1t pleased
to call it, between the Democratic and
the Republican methods in that regard.
1t did this, notwithstanding the fact that
Mr.. Hendricks. the most democratic of
Democrats. accepted the hosptalities of
the railroads, and came like millionaire
in private palace car.
But on the day following the funeral
of General Grant, President Cleveland
went up from New York and Albany on
a government ship. and thus saved the
fare that he would otherwise have been
obliged to pay. 1t does not appear that
he '.junketed, though any cold luncheon
he may have partaken might have sub
iected him to that accusation. Secretary
Whitney. who is so greatly admired for
his .sbnsiness like administration of the
affairs of the navy, has also been guilty
of voyaging on government ship, and,
for all that we know, eating and drink
ing on it. There are thus at least two
clear and well defined cases Of .junketing"
brought home to the present administra-
ton, and vet we listen in vain for an out
burst of Democratic Indignation on the

FREE-TRADEO VERPRODUC
TION.

To the astute philosophers of the
free trade school, who trace SO clearly
to protection the existing industrial de-
preston in this country, we commend
these few words of wisdom, SO aptly
put by the N. Y. T1bune:.
zone of the commonest free-trade
pleas against protection is based upon
overproduction. 1t is frequently as
serted that the effect of artiicially slim
ulating manufacturing industries is dis
astrous, since the market is rapidly
overstocked and capital soon ceases to
be productive. Under the high tariff
system, the free trade professors affirm,
manufacturing is constantly anticipating
the actual requirements of consump-
ton, there is Cutting of the home mar
kets, and business interests suffer from
reaction, depression and panic as the
result of crude economic theories.
GAS this is one of the stock argu-
ments against the American economic
system, it is interesting to note what
Senator Edmunds has to say about the
commercial outlook in England. He
| remarks that wherever he went during
his recent tour in the United Kingdom
he found business very much depressed;
and the cause was everywhere the same,
reproduction. England has gone
on manufacturing, he adds, until she
has glutted all her markets. There is
already wide feeling that England
can only save herself and prevent star
walton or emigration among her work
ing people by following the example OF
this country and adopting protective
tariff policy
"Senators Edmunds, albeit pro-
tectionist, is regarded with great favor
by the free-trade doctrinaires as an
ideal statesman. Possibly his plain and
incisive commets upon the present
condition of industrial England may
induce reflection on their part. If over
production has caused unexampled de-
preston by Cutting the English mar
kets, it is not altogether safe to con-
denim protection in America as a sys,
tenn that inevitably leads to the same
| result F."

TEMPERATE drinkers who urge beer
as a substitute for whiskey will not find
much comfort in the opinion of the
Scientific american which asserts that
the use of beer is found to produce a
species of degeneration Of all the or
gans; profound and deceptive fatty
deposits, diminished circulation, condi-
tons of congestion and pelversion of
functional activities, local inhammations
of both the liver and kidneys, are con-
stantly present. A slight injury, Sc

WHILE the reports of the cholera
plague in Spain and in Marseilles daily
grow more distressing, no cases have
yet been reported in any section of the
United States. While few cases have
attracted attention as indicating cholera
symptoms, yet those conversant with
the disease have pronounced them
only such cases as are incident to warm
weather. We can only hope that the
sanitary precautions that have been
taken at our seaport cities and towns.

ward off this dreaded scourage.
