MALCOLM HAY, of Pittsburg, who
was appointed First Assistant Postmas-
tel General by Mr.. Cleveland soon aft
er his Inauguration, and who, since
then. has been staying at Aiken, S. o.,
in order to build up his health which
was very much impaired. has informed
Postmaster General Villas that his ply
steal condition is greatly improved and
that he would be in Washington either
on Yesterday OF to-day. The position
for which Mr.. Hay was selected is one
which can only be properly filled by a
man in perfect health, since it invests
him with plenary power over the Off
ciaI lives of about forty-five thousand
deputy Postmasters for most of whose
places Democratic aspirants are patient
" waiting. The work, therefore, which
Mr.. Hay is expected to accomplish Is
almost equal TO any one of tie twelve
Iabors of Hercules, to the performance
of which a giants strength and endur-
ance were necessary. Mr.. Hays sp-
pointment commanded universal ap-
proval and we trust that wheE be re
turns to Washington and gets down T.
business, he will be able to stand tn
pressure. His most intimate friends
however, entertain a fear that he Wi
not be physically competent for the tas
and that his resignation is only ques
tion of time.

ETERNAL VIGILANCE is said to be
the price of liberty" 1t is sometimes
also the price of success at an election
as was conclusively demonstrated in Hi
nols couple of weeks aLo, at a special
e'ectlon to fll vacancy caused bv the
death Of a Democratic member of the
STATE Senate. When the Legislature
met there was tie on Joint ballot and
more than three months have been sna,t
IN vain attempt to elect a successor to
Logan in the Z. 5. Senate. The district
IN which the election was held was so
strongly Democratic, that Iogan,s
friends did not put a candidate in the
neid until the day before the election
and having full secret understanding
among themselves throughout the dis
trict as TO the candidate when the vot-
ing was to be dOEe, they swarmed to the
polls and elected him by a small maiori.
Iy' This broke the tie and on Tuesday
last Logan was elected. If Colonel
morrlson who was Logan's opponent
had gone into the district a week before
the election instead of going to Wash
ington. Logan could not have been
elected. Democratic stupidity alone
enabled him TO win.

THE anti-discriminatiou bill was de-
feated in the lower branch of the Legis-
lature last week, the vote standing 50
yeas, to 81 nays, the bill lacking thirteen
of a majority of all the votes in the
House. 1t is a singular fact that while
the Philadelphia and Allegheny county
members voted nearly sol1diy against
tue bill, not single representative from
any of the counties between Philadel-
phia and Pittsburg along the main line
OF the Pennsylvania railroad, including
Cambria, voted for il, with the excep-
tion of one of the members from Hun
tingdou. AS old Sam Weller would
say, this is a very ''hexfranrdinarv CO

/ the President has violated a promise OF
[ done anything on which to form the
{ charge of bad faith How different is
this from the usual experience with new
Administrations Promises on the
stage on which our President is acting
are not only made freely, but freouent-
ly only TO be broken with deliberation.
1t is hard thing to say, but experienced
politicians are witnesses to the fact
that 1t has been no uncommon thing to
hear men in numbers declare that in
former times the President did not keep
his word-onlY that the language would
be much stronger. One fact stands
out above all others, to wit : That
nothing of the kind is heard of Presi-
dent Cleveland. The fact is worth
dwelling on. 1t is rock on sure foun-
datlon. The fact goes far to decide
what IN an important aspect the future
will be.
HIS PERSONAL TRAITS.
The Presidents personal traits as
they are brought out are causing him to
wear well. His incisive bard sense is
never at fault. He is hard man to get
IN corner. Taking bis stand for good
and suthcient reasons he never lodges
from pillar to post for momentary shell |
ter. lie can deal heavy blow. such.
Tor instance, as remarking to the I'LL
Lois delegation that their presence at !
helping to win a Democratic United |
States Senator would become them |
quite as much as office-seeking in Wash 1
ington. The idea that Mr.. Cleveland is
a dull man will have to be given I'D.

sing the patronage of Michigan proves
how strong the Presidents friendships
