COMMENT AND OPINION.

In spite of the Democratic simplicity of the
President it is always pleasant to note that he
travels in the special cars rendered by the presi-
dents of the raroads.-Boston Record
THE old plantation melodies are said to be
giving place to Moody and Sankey tunes among
the negroes This tends to throw doubt upon
the advancement of the colored race. Lowell

"Garlands days as Attorney-general are num-

complains of-Chicago Mail
THE Chicago Anarchists lawyer admits that
his clients have been guilty of good many bad
things. but thinks they should be acquitted on
technicality. Nobody has accused them of tech
nicality. Philadelphia Inquirer.
IT is reported from Washington that Secretary
Bayard is very sensitive over newspaper criti-
cisms of his course in dealing with Mexico. If
Mr. Bayard is addicted to the habit of reading
newspapers it is not probable that he is enjoying
himself at present-St Louis Post Dispatch.

The proposition Of the Iowa Democratic
paper to raise a fund to secure the defeat of
Mr. Hayes, in case he is nominated for Con-
gress in the Tenth Ohio district, is a good one,
and should receive the support and encourage
ment of every good Democrat. 1t would
naturally suggest itself, however, that the
business be conducted secretly and By means
Of cipher, as the party's leader did in the
memorable years 1907. If Mr.. Hayes is

WHEN Postmaster Veazey, of Baltimore
who was appointed by President Cleveland,
resigned his position a few months ago, it was
given out that he did so "by request" and
because his violation Of civil-service reform
rules was offensive to Mr.. Cleveland. The
mugwump organs thereupon crowed loudly
and triumphantly over this reform victory"
and have since pointed to it with pride
The disastrous failure this week of two bust
ness firms with which Mr.. veazey was con-
aected brings out the fact, however, that the
resignation as postmaster was demanded by
his bondsmen, who had become convinced
that he was financially embarrassed. The
two failures were caused by remarkable
series of ''bad investments by Mr. Veazey,
and indicate that not only was he no reformer
but that he was unfit as business man for
she responsibilities of the Office given him.

the cigarmakers were commanded to give up

spirits are despots striving to place all members

TILDEN made a great mistake in not having
his monument eected before he died. A dead
man stands slim chance of ever obtaining a
monument in New York. 1t seems the soil is
not adapted for the proper growth Of such a

In Pennsylvania whatever is accomplished by
the prohibition party will have the same effect
OF weakening the support of the Republican
party which has declared in favor OF submitting
prohibltory constitutional amendment to a
popular vote and aiding the Democratic party
to just that extent-Pittsburg Chronicle.
WHENEVER in any community the officers OF
the law become EASY and careless in the perform
ance of their duties, and public sentiment does
not bring them to prompt and strict account we
find the taste for low amusements asserting 1t
SELF and its qualifications becoming more and
more bold.-C;ncinnati Commercial Gazette
In the second year of his administration.
President Cleveland is decidedly weaker with
Office. Those whom he has pleased, and whose
support he may rely upon by reason of appoint
ments to Office. do not begin to equal in numbers
or influence those who are disappointed and ais
gruntled. -Albany Express.
JUST why prohibition should have been ex-
pected to prohibit in Rhode Island when it has
failed to prohibit anywhere else, is mystery
but the experiment has been tried. with the
usual result After the prohibition craze has
passed away, perhaps Rhode Island will come to
its sober senses, resolve not to become intoxi-
Gated with theories or liquor either, and become
strict hgh-license State. -Philadelphia Times.
WE by no means favor the idea that the
Treasury is to exercise paternal supervision
over the business of the country and protect it
from harm. But it ought not to interfere with
the natural course of things and aggravate a
natural monetary stringency by locking up gold
and greenbacks as 1t has been doing for moro
than year past, and as 1t still continues to do
1t is high time its policy was changed
York Sun.
In is easy to see that the Mexican difficulty
might be used with great effect and it be
kept alive or brought to head, as may please
the President Plainly, territorial aggression
would be as popular at the South now 1t was
forty years ago. IL the President were a man
of lofty patriotism or of undoubted and spot
less sincerity, such suggestions would not arise
in the mind But his conduct in other matters
has made it sufficiently clear that he is not above
using the tools which fortune puts ready to his
hand. New York Tribune.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL.
IT WAS NEVER SO GOOD.

1T WAS NEVER so GOOD.
South Bend Tribune.
The Indianapolis Journal was never so good as
it has been under the present management In
the gathering and presentation OF news and the
conduct of its editorial columns 1t is second to
no paper East or West. The consolidation gives
it increased advantages for getting news and
enables it to make it's editorial force still
stronger, if it were possible.
THE PEER OF ANY IN THE COUNTRY.
South Bend Register.
The Journal is the peer. editorially, of any
paper In the country, and besides giving all the
important general news pays special attention
to State affairs, making it for Indianians, the
best paper published.
NOT SURPASSED IN THE WEST.
Lafayette Journal.
The Indianapolis Journal has become daily
newspaper of life, enterprise and ability not
surpassed in the West, and is the paper to
which the Indiana Republicans look every morn
ing for their political pabulum.
CREDIT TO THE STATE.
Cannelton Gazette.
The Journal has for years been a credit to the
state and its conductors, and under the new ar
ton of patronage will take the front rank as the
great daily newspaper of the West
STILL GREATER HONOR TO THE PARTY.
Columbus Republican.
The journal, always an excellent paper. will
now be still greater honor to the party and the
State, and will be patronized accordingly.

Woman Suffrage and Temperance.

Boston Journal.
Mrs Abigail s. Dunniway, one of the woman
suffrage speakers who took the stump for the
saloons in the recent Washington Territory
elections, writes that it was necessary Ito prove
that the women of the Pacific coast will not go
wild on prohibition or any other one idea" and
adds that whisky will now call off its dogs"
from woman suffrage. This shows that if a ma
jority of thu women in the various Washington
Territory precincts voted for temperance they
did it spite of the advice of the woman suffrage
leaders, who were ready to sacrifice temperance
principles to their own cause.

THE Chinese are an ingenious people when
they set their alleged minds to anything. A
cockroach tournament has just closed at Chicago,
in which fifty of these formidable but airy in
sects participated as combatants. The intellect
that could succeed in training reaches to fight
might do something else if it should happen to
think of it. If these 'tournamongs" should
result in war of determination of reaches by
internecine strife, the heather Chinee will have
won an honorable niche in the temple of fame.

THE rioters at Belfast unhesitatingly con-
denim the police, just as all violators of the
law do when their bloody work is interfered
with. The Anarchists of Chicago had moth
ing good to say of the police. and when the
attempt was made to dispense their meeting
which was decidedly hostile to law and order,
they resented It by throwing dynamite
bomb among the police and began firing on
them, killing many and wounding many more
1t is a homely adage that
No rogue eer felt the halter draw
With good opinion of the law.
It is the same with violators of law and
order of every grade. 1t is the prime duty OF
the law-abiding to so enforce the law and to
support the official defenders Of the law as to
compel respect for it, and thus preserve the
peace and render the government better for
all good people, rich and poor. The Anarch-
lists at Chicago and the rioters at Belfast are
the kind of people who must be suppressed, in
the interest and welfare of others less dis
posed to violence and disorder. That the
thief the murderer, the assassin, should find
fault with the law and its enforcement is its
very best Endorsement. Unlawful violence,
organized or unorganized, must be put down
before anything like progress can be made.
The grand chance to enforce this truth at
Chicago, in the case of the Anarchist as
sassins, should not be lost lest the harm done
will be greater than if these miscreants had
never been molested in the bloody work.
