The Presidents Vetoes.

The President is using his veto power
quite freely. If he continues to use it at
the present rate he will stand a good
chance of becoming known as the Veto
President. Last Saturday he sent three
veto messages to Con gress, and on Mon
day he sent three others.
There has been no complaint, however,
that the vetoes are not just and right.
An inspection of the veto messages will
show that the President studied thor
oughly the bills which he vetoed, and that
the reasons he gave for refusing tosign
them are good ones.
OF the bills vetoed Saturday and Mon
day four are individual pension lis, and
two are public building bills. The facts
show thai Congress could not have exam
ined the pension bills because the bene-
ficiaries mentioned in them are entitled
TO nothing from the government. With
reference to the public building bills the
chief argument in their favor was that
the towns in which the buildings were to
have been located wanted them. That
argument. however, If regarded as suf-
ticient, would give every town and village
in the country, in which there is a post
office, public building.
The conviction is growing that the
President is trying to administer his
great office wholly in the interest OF the
people. He doesn't do one thing ana re-
fuse to do another for the purpose Of in.
creasing his popularity. His aim ap.
pears TO he 90 do what is right.
The people are quick TO recognize integ-
rlty and genuine purpose TO act from
pure and disIn'erested motives. II may
be 'bat Mr.. Holman, who a few days ago
said that If the next President we're a
Democrat Mr.. Cleveland would be that
Democrat, Ia right.

The ExneIIed PRINCES.

The Princes have got to leave France
Our dispatches yesterday stated that the
Senate had adopted the bill for their ex-
pulsIon just as it came from the Chamber
OF Deputies. 1t was evident from the mo-
ment the bill was introduced that it would
pass.
Premier De Freycinet stated in his
speech on the bill in the Senate that there
was not room for two governments in
France, and that the government Of which
he is the head would take all the RESPONSE
bility for the expulsion Of the Princes.
Of course the Princes viii be able to
intrigue against the government outside
Of France, bur not so advantageously.
In France they have maintained press,
and have been active in promulgating
IDEAS calculated to open their way to a
return to power. 1t is believed that they
had undertaken to cause a rupture of the
friendly relations existing between Ger
many and France, with the hope that
France would become so weakened IN the
struggle thatIt would not be difficult to
overthrow the republic.
The republic does not rest on a very
III III iouuudbiOns IL udS pOWtIlul Sue-
mics at home and abroad. The exercise
of great judgment on the part of those at
the head OF affairs is required to protect
it against internal dangers. Indeed, it is
question whether greater danger is not
to be apprehended from the anarchists
and Socialists than from the Princes.
II the republic were strong 1t could
afford to ignore all of it's enemies. But it
isn't strong, and the expulsion of the
Princes is an acknowledgment of that
fact. However, it is wiser to admit a
weakness than to make pretensions of
strength when strength does not exist.
The whole number of persons-men,
women and children-affected by the act
of expulsion is about thirty-tive. 1t is
probable that they will go to England.
There is no other European country where
they would find their surroundings as
pleasant. 1t has been suggested to some
of them that they make their home in this
country, but there have been no indica-
tions that the suggestion is likely to be
adopted. The Count de Paris has many
friends in the United States. He served
with credit on the Federal side during our
civil war, and proved himself to be an ex-
cellent soldier and man of great intelli-

Boston Letter TO the Precedence Journal.
Mr.. Thompson had for a client a man who
was accused OF selling liquor unlawfully. The
prisoner was OF an appearance perhaps best
described as alcoholic, and his nose might
have served as beac m on Eddystone ledge
on the darkest night. The testimony was
taken, aud the case went on until Mr.. Thomp-
son rose TO make his plea.
"1-y-your Honor" he began, 'l-l-look at
the j-j-jury. G-gentlemen OF The Jury, l-look
at his Honor. l-your Honor, l-l-look at the
n-p-prlsoner. P-p-prisoner, l-look at his

the accused outweighed all other testimony.

More PraIae for Mrs. CLEVELAND.
From the Baltimore American.

No one has attracted so much attention at
the national capital during the past ten DAYS
as Mrs. Cleveland, and IL is improbable that
any future mistress of the White House will
have 80 many persons eager TO see her. The
ladies who made study of Mrs. Cleveland at
the two receptions held IN the past week say
that she VIII he credit TO the White House,

for the better. There is ali the difference In
the world between the general character OF
Mr.. Cleveland and bis wife. lie Is slow and
phlegmatic, while she Is very energetic. lie
Ia methOdical and meditatiye. while she Ia
somewhat gay and quick 10 act. But those
who have seen most OF Mrs. Cleveland say
that the match h a very good one.

A Boston BOY.
From the Boston Record,


One evening in the mountains, lust as the
sun was setting, the San Francisco lawyer,
when about a mile from his ranch had dis
mounted to get drink from a stream that
rushed down the hill alongside the trail. He
was STOPPING over. holding his horse by the
bride, when a mounted ranger came tearing
down the trail, and refining up in front OF the
lawyer presented a pistol straight In front of
his eyes and shouted:
drop that bride and skip out o. here, or
the gun goes off!'
The lawyer, who had no weapon more for
mldable than penknife in his possession, re-
maned as cool as II he were cross-questioning
a witness IN San Francisco. He held on to the
bride too.
"Blaze away" said he,
The ranger held the pistol where it was,
only moving 1t a little nearer and a little
nearer to the lawyers gittering black eyes.
The lawyer never flinched, or trembled, or
or paled. The ranger meant business. The
muscles of his finger upon the trigger tight
ened-and then he dropped his arm, as if he
had suddenly recognized stronger will than
"Well. hev yer own way about it. stranger"
said he, 'but that's far sort of boss you've
there"
''The lawyer had in the meantime glanced
at the rangers animal. 1t was clean-cut,
ng-limbed American" as good as his
own.
"How'll you swap?" he asked.
The ranger laughed
"Well, he said. ''seein' it's you, how would
about ever do?"
THAT suits me-" said the Yankee
So the ranger dismounted; the lawyer got
upon the horse of the man who five minutes
before rode up to rob him, an unarmed man;
the ranger, mounting tine other animal, gave
HIM good night with the cowboy counterfeit
OF military salute, and rode of through the
fast falling darkness.
VIII that serve for California story of a
Boston boy? The strongest point of 1t is its
truth. The lawyer not long ago visited his
brother In Boston, and never told him word
of the story about the highwayman, for he
never relates his own exploits unless pressed
TO DO so. But some time afterward a Califor-
MIA neighbor of his in the mountains-he lives
only fifteen miles away from the lawyers
ranch-came to Boston on his travels, with an
introduction to the doctor, and told him the
story.

A Scheme That Won't Work.

The postal clerks OF some OF the great
Western railroads have, it seems, COM
bined to keep themselves in their places.
According to the story published in our
dispatches yesterday, if one of their num-
Der is dismissed they will call for the rea-
sons for dismissal. II the reasons are not
furnished, or if furnished and are not salts
factory, all the clerks in the combination
will resign and let the postal service get
along the best way it can.
1t is probable that the Postmaster Gen.
eral will prove himself able to deal with
this postal clerks combination, and it is
also probable that the clerks who have
Joined it will wish that they had keptout
OF it before they are many months older.
The government will hardly permit itself
to be dictated to by postal clerks. When
it wants to dismiss postal clerk for in
competency or for other reasons, or for
no reason whatever, it will probably do
1t Notwithstanding the determination of
the clerks to resign in body unless their
wishes in the matter are consulted
The government will have no difficulty
in getting clerks to fill all vacancies that
may occur in the postal service. Indeed,
it is probable that the Post Office Depart
ment would be rather glad to have a
good many of the postal clerks to send in
their designations. 1t would then be able
to get rid of some of the pressure for
places, which for months has been strong.
Doubtless the postal clerks combina-
ton is the work of incompetent and care
less clerks who fear dismissal for good
cause. They hope to keep their places
Notwithstanding their unftness for them.
1t is safe to assume that postal clerks who
attend to their duties conscientiOusly,
and who are competent, stand much bet
ter chance of being retained in the postal
service than those who propose to bull
doze the government into retaining them.

A Difference.

From the Pitts6ur0 DispdtcA.
The play was done. and toward the stage
Impatient 10 be gone,
The pleasure lovers turned their backs,
With many a smothered vawn.
The hour was late. and each man strove
To make his exit through
The crowded door, with tooth and nail,
As well bred people do.
And one. a husband, as he pushed,
Was aided in the strife
By her whom he had sometime made
His lawful, welded wife,
Whose zeal, a woman's zeal, outran
Her reason as she wrought,
Who lost her husband in the crowd,
Nor found him when she sought.
But he, all painting from the fray,
Espled slender form
Arrayed in robes whose cost he knew;
He seized her by the arm,
And being somewhat wOrsted in
The competition past,
With angry words he greeted her,
And gripped her hard and fast,
She answered not as some might do,
But with tImid grace
She lifted toward his redeemed phiz
A sweet, reproachful face;
A face that made his conscience sting
HIS manhood like Knife:
"FOrgive my rudeness, MISE" said he,
II thought it was my wife,"

The anxiety Of some of our contempor-
aries to show that the MORNING NEWS is
not as impartial as it is possible for
it to be in it's reports of the
progress of the Gordon-Bacon cam
paign are somewhat remarkable. Is this
anxiety due to a feeling on the part Of
these contemporaries that their partisan
course is not so generally commended as
the bipartisan course of the MORNING
NEWS is?
Failing to find any evidence in the
columns of the MORNING NEWS of dis
position to do either Gen. Gordon OF Maj
Bacon an injustice, they seize upon
paragraph in the Valdosta Times which
stated that the MORNING NEWS sent to the
editor of that paper for a report OF the
Gordon meeting at that place, which was
sent and not published, but that a dis
patch sent by two Gordon men was pub
lished. We explained the matter with
respect TO the two dispatches in last
Mondays issue, but our esteemed con-
temporaries, who claim to be anxious
TO do nobody an injustice, entirely ignored
tue explanation.
The Valdosta dispatch was sent by a
gentleman who represents the MORNING
NEWS throughout this State, and has
represented it tor years. 1t was in hand
when the dispatch OF the Valdosta Times
editor was received, and it was not
thought matter OF sufficient Importance
TO substitute the second dispatch for the
first. ills 10 be hoped that this statement
will set the minds OF our esteemed con-
temporaries at rest.
