Mr.. c. +. CREHoRE has written AN in.

alton for this special instruction involves m a
necessity OF giving to them "A good general
education, wh ich will be equally applicable
TO other and personal objects, but it should
ever be borne in mind that these advantages
are incidental TO- and not the main object OF
the establishment The pupil should be
taught TO realize that he owes debt 10 the

unblushing corruption and fraud never ex-
perienced even here before. Both sides
admit it: neither claims exemption, each
pleads the more extensive and more effect
i've crooked work on the part of the other.
Two well defined instances are developed,
either of which ought to suffice for the
foundation Of criminal proceedings, whether
for punishment of the offenders or vim
dication Of the accused. DIR. Roe
buck, ex-senator and aspirant for Con
gress, has accused himself; and being con-
fronted with his own alleged testimony is
in position where, if he fails to bring a
libel suit, he confesses his guilt. Now, on
the other side, reputable newspaper,
with responsible editor, charges specific
frauds upon one Of the election boards, and
supports the allegation with a priH11 fdcic
case of testimony.
1t will not cost the two sides to this con-
troversy one tenth as much to investigate
these charges as it did to run their ca ndi-
dates !; and the organization itself can do
it at far less cost than it incurred to hold
the election. 1t seems To be plain enough
that the functions of the return judges
cannot be terminated by the proclamation
of their president. 1t remains to be seen
what a smirched party will do about it.

Close TO IL.

Henry q. Davis, who is entertaining the
president at Deer Park, came very near
being as close to Mr.. Cleveland officially as
he now is socially.
After Mr.. Cleveland had been nominated
and his friends controlling the national
convention had paused to look about for
man for second place, there were three
names prominent in the minds and on the
tongues of the three OF four score persons
who met and counselled ON that subject.
These names were William f. Villas,
Thos. A. Hendricks and Henry G. Davis.
The discussion settled down to a choice
between Hendricks and Davis, and by a
narrow margin the decision was for Hen
bricks. Two considerations may have in
fuenced enough minds to determine the
selection. Davis state of West Virginia
was considered safely Democratic in any
event his social and business relations
with his son-in-law, Stephen B. Elkins
Blaine's manager, weakened him with
some Democrats.
Had Davis been nominated, however. in
stead of Hendricks, he might not have been
elected and it is seldom the candidate of
a party for vice president is defeated, and
its nominee for president is chosen.
The trout fishing on ex-senator LAWS,
Deer Park place is excellent, and even a
president could not find pleasanter place
for honeymoon.

A Feeble Subterfuge,

Some Of the apologists for the anti
oleomargarine law which has just passed
the House of Representatives, undertake
to justify it upon the ground that I" the
bill does not affect the manufacture or sale
OF oleomargarine as such, but when it IS
mixed with any other substances and sold
as butter it is subjected to a tax of five
cents per pound" The measure which
has been adopted by one House of Con-
gress admits Of no such construction,
neither by the terms in which it is drawn
nor by the avowed motives of those who
have pressed it TO passage. They aimed at
oleomargarine, by which they meant to
describe everything" made in imitation or
semblance of butter y; and no matter
whether it purports to be butter or what
it really is. There can be no reasonable
objection to requiring by law that oleo-
margarine shall be sold as such, and
that its sale for butter shall be an oifense
But there is no more occasion nor justii
cation for this than for the regulation by
federal law of all other limitations. w,
have imitation teas and coffees, imitation
sugars and candies, shoddy cloths and
bogus silks, veneered woods and colored
marbles, doctored wines and diluted drugs,
and thousand other things that are not
what they seem. Good morals and good
health require regulation of them
just as much as they require new laws for
the protection of butter and the preven-
tion of its imitation. But the congress
sional law is passed to prevent competi-
tion of one manufactured domestic article
for another, and this is its essential vice.
This was the purpose of the bill,
and this is its object in clear
distinct terms. If it did not
achieve this purpose the dairymen would
not care farthing for it. The law lays a
tax of cents a pound ON g all oleomarga-
rine manufactured or ordered" besides
prescribing penalty 50 for the purchase or
reception for sale of Oleomargarine not
branded or stamped according to law" If
to prevent deception was its only aim, this
last clause would be ample but in addi-
tion this outrageous and exorbitant tax is
laid on all substances made ''of oleomarga-
rine, oleo, oleomargarine oil, butterine,
lardine, suene and neutral; all mixtures
and compounds of olemargarine; oleo.
Oleomargarine oil, butterine, lardine, suene
and neutral all lard extracts aud tallow
extracts, and all mixtures and compounds
of tallow, beef fat, suet, lard, lard oil, veg
etable oil, annotto and other coloring mat
ter, intestinal fat and offal fat made in
imitation or semblance of butter, or, when
so made, calculated or intended to be sold
as butter or for butter.n
And yet this very law protects the frauds
of the dairymen themselves when itdefines
butter to be butter, even with additional
coloring matter ~ They may make any
they please of milk and annotto.
carrots or yellow paint and it is 80 but
ter" as defined by law. The skm-milk
statesman must go.

Mr.. Manning's RESIGNATION.

The correspondence between Mr.. Man.
ming and Mr.. Cleveland does great credit
to them both. Mr.. Manning shows him.
self actuated by very high sense of public
duty, broad conception of the response
bilities of his office and loyal attachment to
his chief Mr.. Cleveland sets proper store
upon the ability of his minister of finance
and he shows only due regard for the in
terests of the country and the success of
his administration when he asks Mr..
Manning to take leave of absence and de
fer his resignation, until reasonable lapse
of time and change of circumstances will
show more clearly whether or not it is
necessary.
Mr.. Manning's career as cabinet Off
Ger has been most agreeable surprise. He
was accepted by the country rs essentially
the politician of the council. His career
had been that of an astute political mana
ger, and while the Democracy generally
knew his worth and recognized that broad
craftsmanship was entirely consistent
with adroit management, many ele.
ments of Mr.. Cleveland'S supporters
viewed Mr.. Manning's appointment with
undisguised alarm. The Philadelphia Rec-
| ord, whose frankness is nearly always ad-
mirable, while its judgment OF men is often
wrong and its prejudiees uncontrolled, de-
nounced Mr.. Manning most sayagely and
declared that for the president to associate
him with his cabinet would be like ventur-
ing upon swim girdled with gas pipe.
Mr.. Manning very soon disappointed his
adversaries and silenced his critics. He
has alike satisfied the country and the De-
mocracy. His administration of the de-
partment has been emineutly successful: !:
and he has organized it with efficient men
of the party to which the president says he
and his secretary belong. Because of such
organization his leave of absence may be
taken without disturbance much more
safely than successor could be appointed.
