PRESSING RIGHT ON.
The Democracy of New York Bringing
Thieves to Justice, as It Has Away
Done-Republican Pretensions.

The Democracy of New York Bringing
Thieves to Justice. as 1t Has Always
Done-Republican Pretensions.
Several occurrences of recent date
signalize the jealous vigilance with
which the Democratic party guards its
own honor and integrity. 1t has never
taken to itself sufficient credit for its
works in this respect-perhaps because
it feels that there is no occasion to
boast of merely performing an oh.
vious duty. Still its dissemination to
make capital out of its reforms has fire.
| q~uently been turned to its disadvant,
age, its opponents impudently arrogat-
ing the merit to themselves as the only
real children of light. The Democracy
never got the honor it deserved for
an~nihilating the Tweed Ring and
sending the chiefs of that bad
band of %plunderers to State prison
or into exife-a publication which was
wrought by Charles O'Conor, Samuel
j. Tilden and other great leaders Of
the Democratic party. Republican
orators and organs always speak of the
Tweed Ring as if it were wholly Demo-
cratic in origin and texture, while they
depict its disruption as the work OF
honest and earnest Republicans.
To-day SO Jealous is the Democratic
party in its desire for pure government
that through a Democratic mayor and
a Democratic Governor it insists that
buffoons and petty tricksters as we'll as
great thieves must be kept out or eject
ed from public office. Yet the Governor
receives but grudging and ~ungracious
praise from a large portion OF the press
for his prompt removal of Squire. who
is still in the net of the same Demo-
cratic district attorney that hunted
down the Broadway franchise jobbers.
Under the inspiration and guidance Of
Governor Hill the Democracy of New
York State takes no step backward and
condones no wrong-doing.-M. Y.
Graphic.
Mr.. Blaine says that he does mot
wish to- be understood as saying that
the recent labor troubles were the re-
suit of a Democratic Administration,
but there is a suspicious contempora-
neousness about the two which the
Democrats should be called Upon to
explain" The panic of 1873. the labor
riots of 1877, and the ye.low-fever cpl
demic of 1873, may likewise not have
been the result of a Republican Admin
istration, but there was a suspicious
contemporaneousness about them
which the Republicans should be called
upon to explain.-Chscago Times.

escaping through the back door, 1 can

and l rushed up the broken steps, spring

perceived my fight, and as 1 reached
the top of the stairs l cast a terrified
look behind, and beheld him rushing
down the hall with the bayonet in his
hand. Just then another lurid flash lit
up every corner of the desolate house
with binding light, then vanished into
redoubled darkness. My pursuer dashed
headlong up the steps-a stumble-a
heavy fall-a deep greenland all was

WHAT THE PAPERS DID.

Two Instances Where they Secure Dis
tant Aid for the Sabine Pass
Sufferers.
When President Cleveland read of the
Sabine Pass disaster his heart WAS
touched and he wanted to add his 500
mite promptly to the sufferers relief,
but he didn't know where to send IT,
But he knew that the newspapers would
gladly act as his almoner, so he sent the
following letter to Col. Belo, Of the Gal
weston News:
EXECUTIVE MANSION,
WASHINGTON, Oct. 10, 1886.
Col. A. Fl. Belo.
Ny Dear Sir: The late terrible dis
aster at Sabine Pass, In the State of
Texas, and the restitution, suffering and
death thereby occasioned have so reused
my sympathy that should be glad to
contribute to the relief of the stricken
people of that locality, who are SO much
In need of help. l have not seen In the
newspapers the mention OF any appoint
ed medium by which my purpose can be
reached, and l have therefore deter
mined to avail myself OF your kno wledge
ofthe place and people and your inter-
ests in all that pertains to practical aid
In such cause, and 10 request you to
undertake that my small contributions
herewith inclosed he placed where 1t
will relieve the most distress and need
Thanking you in advance for what you
will do for me in this behalf, am, yours
sincerely, GROVER CLEVELAND.
Another lady, Mrs. Fred Chase, of
South Stamford, Conn.,, reading in the
New York World Of q poor orphan,
doubly bersayed by the cruel waters,
writes the editor as follows:
~ noticed In this mornings paper an
account of the sad disaster at Sabine
PAS, also Of the little boy left an Or
phsn, the son Of Joseph Paisley. Will
you be so very kind as to tell me how 1
can address the parties who have him
in charge? have long desired to adopt
q boy from good, honest parents, an or
phan without relatives, and thinking
your reporter at that place could give
the desired information, write you.
am able to give the boy a good home
and take good care Of him. We are
hardly middle.aged and have only 9
daughter Of seventeen, who may SCOT
leave for hone Of her own. We shall
then be alone. l will run the risk o.
bringing him up good boy. My daugh
ter has grown up and is a good Christ
ian girl. / think by the help Of God,
could lead the little boy the same way.
Here are two instances Of the practi
cal good that newspapers in Texas anC
all over the world are doing daily. Yet
there are people who abuse them on the
slightest pretext and grudgingly sup
port them.
