this contempt into a shape more offensive to
voters in this city and Brooklyn than ap-
pointing a liquordSlng Alderman to any
particular sanimal is0 the embodiment of all
that is worst in both New York society and
politics. 1t is, therefore, an offence which
the friends of reform can neither pass over
or explain away. After Captain Bacon has
been restored, and Sterling sent back to his
liquor shop, it will be for the President to
say whether men who have so grossly abused
his confidence and have shown themselves so
far out of sympathy with his views about
government, can be allowed to remain in
an establishment SO important as the New
York CustOm-house. We do not for our part
see how. he can leave them there for even
thirty days. Whether he keeps them in
place or not, however, he must correct and
restrain them promptly. To accept or con-
done their action in this Bacon case would
be a virtual abandonment in the eyes of the
whole country of the attempt to reform the
service on which Mr. Cleveland has entered.
If this thing can be done with impunity in
the New York Custom-house in the seventh
month of his Administration, it will show
that the time has come for reformers to con-
fess that they have been again deceived, and
must renew in other fields the old battle, so
often baffied, but so sure in the end to be
won

The controversy between the Cincinnati
Commereial-Gazette and the Rev. DR.. Leon
ard wakes hotter and hotter. The Doctor is
denouncing the Gazette on the stump, and
the Gazette is denouncing the Doctor in its
columns. Such epithets as liar and sneak
are freely used by both of them, and alto
gether the quarrel is not at all edifying and
not likely to be profitable. In recent issue
the Gazette proposes to submit its charges
against DR.. Leonard to three Methodist bish-
ops, agreeing if they find them false to pay
$500 to some worthy charity on condition
that DIR. Leonard will do the same if they
find them true. 1t is very doubtful if the
cause of prohibition or the election of Judge
Foraker is likely to be advanced by this style
of warfare.

PROGRESS MADE BY THE DEMOCRACY.

This summer Senator Vance has killed a
very large bear, Senator Ransom has killed a
very large snake, Senator Whitney has killed
a very large business industry, and President
Cleveland has caught very large trout.
And yet some persons pretend that the
country under a Democratic administration
is not booming.
