THAT Is a very striking remark of the
Buffalo Courier, that Mr.. Cleveland is re-
solved to break up the spoils system, so that
it can never be resuscitated If that remark
had been made by the Courier in July, 1884,
Mr.. Cleveland could not have been elected
New York Sun
The striking feature Of the remark of the
Buffalo paper is surpassed by that of the Sun.
Is the Sun an apostate, that it dare advance
such heretical Yiews7 And can it be possible
that any considerable number of reformers
would have refused to support Mr.. Cleveland's
candidacy had they believed that he would
seriously attempt to break down the spoils

IT is rather odd to read on one day New
York interview with Secretary Whitney in
which that gentleman makes grievous COM
plant of overwork and of the impossibiItv of
taking rest, and the very next morning to
read of the arrival at Newport of the govern
ment steamer Dispatch with the Secretary of
the Navy and other members of the Cabinet
and a party of ladies on board. Possibly Mr..
Whitney regards the leisurely inspection of
coast fortified tons, varied by visits to fash
ionable summer resorts as work; but during
Republican administrations this was known to
Democratic organs as junketing The changes
from the Tallapoosa to the Dispatch and from
Chandler to Whitney, important though they
be, hardly seem sufficient to alter the nature
of the service performed.

JOHN ROACH has already got all but about
500, 900 of the contract price Of the Dolphin,
and there is no reason for the non acceptance
of the other three ships he is building except
their inability to meet the requirements In
dianapolis News.
If the News were less savage, it might be
little more impartial Mr. Roach has been
paid call but about 500, 900 Of the contract
price Of the Dolphin" and the News would
like to have it appear that therefore he was
safe at any rate and that there was no excuse
for his failure. Is it possible that the OPINION
of the Attorney general is so soon forgotteni
He says that every dollar paid on the Dolphin
and on the other three vessels may be recov-
cred. This is the implied threat that broke
Mr.. Roach. With an administration avowedly
hostile to him, and condemned already on ex
parte evidence, he knew that he stood no
chance at all. He could not hope to make
the other three vessels building meet the re-
quirements for the reason that the require
ments would probably be stretched from time
to time, as they were in the case of the Dol
phin. The almost advertised intention of Mr..
Whitney was to down Mr.. Roach, and in this
he was evidently supported by press hostile
to Mr.. Roach, and the bankruptcy
of the ship-builder was hailed with
evident satisfaction, and in some
instances the expressions of joy were similar
to such as are vented when a party wins in a
campaign. If that is the purpose of the Dem
ocratic party, to drive out of business all men
who have had anything to do with govern
ment contracts, and to do it on preiudiced
evidence and no evidence at all, it NAV be-
come one Of several issues that will make up
approaching campaigns. 1t is hard to under
stand how any man but the meanest partisan
can take any satisfaction in the downfall of
Mr.. Roach. With the tightening rope of a
thug about his neck, he was powerless to de-
fend himself The highwaymen have had it
all their own way in this case. Being judge,
jury, law prosecutors, and executioners in a
certain sense it would have been madness to
stand out against them.

WE do not exactly understand how this can
be. Mr.. Roach must have understood when
he took the contract to build the Dolphin and
the other boats now on his docks that the
government had perfect right to refuse to
accept any OF the boats if they did not come
up TO the contracted standard. Chicago News.
There are several things you seem not to
understand, and one is that the Attorney
general gives 1T as his opinion that Mr..

In this part of the world the Democrats that 7
see are tolerably indignant about Miss Cleve-
lands publications. They think that it will not
take many of them to make the head of their
party about as ridiculous as the Guteau family
was only four years ago, when the brother-in-
law and the sister of Guiteau wanted to be d.
vorced in order that each might write book on
the wonderful performance of their kin. A new
Democrat IN high condition sat down by me YES

of character he would sit down on his sister He
thought 1t highly indecorous for his sister to be

few months of the old mans taking federal

her husband brother or father ridiculous by
doing anything after he reaches the important
situation of the presidency. With all the smart,
in the power of masculine writing she has been
an unquestioned injury to Mr.. Blaine, ty her
controversial work, which his small minded
and small-waisted enemies have attributed
to Blaine himself. Gail Hamilton

but for her being in Mr.. Blaine's household She

VANDERBILT seems to have changed his
tune. A few months ago he freely declared
that the public might be ID. He now talks
in different vein, and speaking Of the South
Pennsylvania line, says that whatever he may
do relative to his interest therein, it will be
for the benefit of all who are with him, and
for the public good, too. The world moves.
1t would move just the same, however, what
