Sam Randall Saves the Treasury.

A gigantic plumber of the treasu-
ry under the guise of increased pen
sions was in the act of being re-
ported from the pensions commit
tee last week. 1t gives 100000, 900
the first year and $100,O00,000 an
nually thereafter, in addition to the
present enormous amount paid out
thus The last bill was a bid for
soldier votes, unjust and unnecessa-
ry squandering of public moneys,
and the party that did it was beat
en- at the polls the next election.
Now it is attempted in even more
enormous extent, the republicans
doing 1t to swamp the democrats.
If the democrats reject it there will
go up a howl from a hundred thous-
andpension agents and boot-lickers;
if they pass it, the treasury is sacked
and they are held responsible. The
great Sam Randall came to the res
cue and he saved the party and the
treasury at one sweep. He de-
manded of the democrats on the
committee that they withhold the
report, and then he brought author.

The GAINESVILLE Democrat says
Some of the railroad organs are labor
ing fearfully to prove that the decision
of the U. S. supreme court in the Mis-
sisippi commission cases is not directly
counter to the position assumed by the
opponents of the commission in Ten
nessee.
This is equivalent to asserting
the converse. 1t was to counter
act such perversions as this that
the CITIZEN called attention to the
points decided. This is too serious
\ matter TO be treated ignorantly
or perversely. The unity of the
party and many thousand dollars
are involved. The decision clearly
decides the Tennessee case against
the commission and the democrat
and all other papers ought to let the
people know it so the agitation may
stop. What's the use of making
democratic platforms out of out
lawed planks? We challenge the
Democrat to show otherwise than
by it's own idle assertion that the
Tennessee case is not decided by
inference if not in terms. If SO,
why push it longerP

The large majority of farmers
cannot afford to keep q cow for
milk alone; they want to raise the
male calves for feeding steers, and
. COW which will raise large calf
is more valuable than one which
will make large amount of butter.
Then the best cow must be
large and q good breeder, and then
the larger quantity of rich milk she
can be got to yield is much the
better. There are plenty of such
COWS to be had which win raise just
as good calves as those which will
not give enough thin milk to raise
herNown calves.

The issue is made between the
president and the republican senate.
The senate arrogantly asked for
the papers bearing upon each case
of removal of office-holders by the
president and statement of his
reason for removal The president
considered the demand in cabinet
and replied formally and back
bonedly that he was the president
and they were the senate, and he
was capable of managing his end of
the government and they must con-
fine themselves to their end.

Gen Sherman is caught in a
downright lie. He wrote last fall
in a private letter: ''If Gen. Smith
had lived Gen. Grant would have
disappeared from history after Don
elson." Gen. Fry quoted this Ian
guage in an article in the Century,
whereupon Gen. Sherman waxed
wroth and Indignantly denied it,
saying Fry invented it, calling for
proof and demanding that Fry be
dealt with by court martial for Sian
der. Then Fry quietly had Sher-
mans letter stereotyped and printed
it and it showed for itself that
Sherman had lied.
