for state, county, town, road, bridge,

;;eIuse To BE Satisfied with the Report
of the Manner of His Death.
LONDON, June JS.-Dispatches received
from Munich show that affairs there are
more threatening than at any time since the
deposition of the late king Ludwig. The
authorities fully recognize this fact, and
have largely increased the number of gems
d armes and regular troops The guards
around the residenz Schloss, where the dead
king il lying i'll state, have been doubled,
and, as it is, they are hardly able to con-
troll the mob, which persists in linger-
ing near the remains. Some of the
citizens who are so anxious to ex-
anime che face of the corpse are
seeking to find some bruse or other mark
which might furnish clew to the manner
of the kings death The story of what
happened in the lake when the king and
DR.. Guddcn were drowned, which can be
verified by no one, is accepted as a pure
conjecture by the burgherrs. They say that
the oifIcial onjecture was made up by the
very conspirators who had deposed the
king. OF course these conspirators would
represent the kings death as case of sui
eide, SO as to increase the evidences of his
having been insane, but there are various
other theories involving accident and even
murder which have been advanced and are
sturdily adhered to by many of the
burgherS
None of these theories involved Dr.
Gudden in any act of treachery but ali
agree that he attempted to save the king, OF
that he was the common victim with Lud-
wig Of the conspirators
1t IL expected that the popular tumult
will eliminate on the day of the king s
burial If the burghers Can do nothing
else, they Gun at least arrange huge pro-
cesslou to march in the rear of the cortege
carrying banners and badges and calling for
revenge
The people who are engaged in this agita-
ton are not of the scum and riff-raff, but
are among the best citizens of Munich, and
the city authorities who are themselves well
represented in the movement and can not
openly take any severe action against the
burghers, unless the latter commit overtacts
OF rioting
Among the documents which have been
submitted to the diet TO prove the insanity
of the late King Ludwig is decree of the
dead monarch sentencing all the ministers
to death, copies of which were sent to all
the members of the government and de-
cree sentencing a number of the ministers to
Punishment to America. The affidavits of
thirty persons have also been submitted, in
which it is stated that the king in iured them
by throwing at them knives, china and
glass There is also document relating tc
a proposal Of the king to form cabinet
with his valet as president

THE letter of Secretary Manning re-
signing his office should be carefully
lead by every thoughtful citizen. Every
democratic congressman, especially
should paste it in his hat while Mr.. Ran
dali is making some of his speeches. Mr..
Manning entered the treasury department
with the reputation of being, perhaps
the shrewdest political manager in the
country. He will leave the Office with II
reputation for craftsmanship second to
that of few, if any, men in public life in
this country. Nothing better for his
party or for his country could happen
than that summers rest should so far
restore his health as to enable him to re-
sumo his position.

ter of Roger E Harding, the wealthy dis

there, and that they were to be married

news and refused their consent The bride
was sick abed when her husband came, but
took his part and said she still loved him,
and was ready to share his lot again. A
truce has been patched up between Mulliken
and the old folks, and he was permitted to
have an interview with his wife. A perma-

pected.

THE opponents of the policy of Presi-
dent Cleveland in congress make good
deal of noise, but 1t is well to remember
that he also has supporters there who are
perfectly competent to sustain him when
the occasion makes it worth while. The
following remarks by Mr.. Cox. of North
Carolina, are well worth reading: MY
friend from Illinois (Mr Cannon) said
yesterday he believed the present chief
executive was now the most popular
compliment, coming from an opponent,
and supplement it with the opinion that
he is not only the most popular democrat
but the most popular man of either par
ty in this country. And why? Because
he is recognized as an able, fearless, and
honest public servant, a man of the high
est integrity and the loftiest purposes;
one who. when he gives his pledge to the
people will stand by that pledge. even
though he fall in the attempt to fulfill it
applause; man who, while covetipg
popularity, runs not after it, but by
worthy acts leaves it come to bim. When
man stands by his integrity,
when an official gives to the public
his best services, he may make mistakes
all are liable to do that-but the peo-
pie will make all proper allowances for
the errors he may commit We
have an executive who is endeavoring to
faithfully execute u law the civil service
law which we placed upon the statute
book, and the question arises whether we
will stand by him or embarrass him in
fulfilling his and our own public pledges.
