4 CONTEMPORARY WITH A BAD MEMORY

A CONTEMPORARY WITH A BAD MEMORY.
The Ner- York Times says that "Mr. Clcvc-
land was smirched from head to foot only by
the filth which his enemies poured out upon
him" Oh, no. One Of the most ardent oil Mr.
Clcvcland's supporters in his campaign for the
Presidency was The Times, and 1T was IN thc
columns Of that paper that Mr.. Cleveland was
ssnirchcd from head to foot" The public has
not forgotten that significant circumstance al
though we can well believe that 1T serves the
purpose OF our contemporary not to remember
it. When Cleveland began to bc talked about
as Presidential candidate The Times had thiS
to say on the subject:
Nothing instance could be more preposterous than
for the Presidency OF Governor Cleveland VINO
ar ago was Mayor of Buffalo has been known
even IN state politics whose canvass was conducted ny SIN
gle enthusiastic newspaper anil who WAS elected "o'eo
over man far higher standing as public man simply
because disgust Of considerable number OF RepuD
caps with considerable number things chiefly with the
methods by which nomination Of tho Republican eand
date was brought about And yet the nomination oil THIS
rAgocHIAL STATESMAN is quite on the cards.
Nor is this by any means the worst thing Inc
Times had to say about Mr. Cleveland. 1t not
only spoke contcmptuously Of his ability but 1t
sharply assaile1 his cha acicr. 1t denounced
hin, in connection with his approval OF the
Aoucduct bill as "authoriMng the robbery CT
the public on a great scale" Referring to his
treatment of the architects Of the Capitol. 1t
branded Inn as being willing to swlndle
Ohcm) out of money which the State owes them
for work done for the State, in order TO gam 4
repu'aton as q refoImcr." And it addcd
"ThIs is about the cheapest and scurviest trick
even of this very low priced rcformer." When he
nut his Signature to the Ludlow Street Jail bill
il excoriated him for aiding and abcttins :" "A
poltical ob for the enrichment Of political
gang"
We might reproduce other tributes to Mr..
Cleveland from The Times of the same purport
But these will do What shall be said OF the
foolhailinoss Of newspaper which had thus
repeatedly held Up Mr.. Cleveland TO the condcm-
pation of reputable people, which had snecfed
at his requirements public man, stiSmatI-
ing him as a parochial statesman now turn
ing around and brazenly asserting that MI.
Cleveland was smirchcd from head to foot
only by "his enemies >?
There is a point beyond which lying gets TO
lie monumental stupidity.

TIE CHANCES OF U4R

The details of the bulgarian coup d'etat are
Cbscurely related in the caiie dispatches The
new Secretary of the Interior has evidently es-
tablished a rigid censorship Of news at Sophia
aud it is not by any means clear that Prince
Alexander has actually abdicated. 1t is plain.
however, that the revolution has not been so
widely organized or so thoroughly planned as
was at first supposed; that it was conspiracy Y
formed under the shadow of the palace and
that public opinion is divided respecting Prince
AleXander's downfall. AT Widdn, Shunla
and other military posts there is said to be deep
dissatisfaction and in Sophi.. and other cities
hostile demonstrations against the provisional
Government have been made. The National
party Is apparently offering resistance to the
conspiring Minister'S and Prince Alexander If
he were to return to his realm would find a
great body Of supporters ready to follow his
fortunes. The present dIsorganized condition of
the Prmclpallty Is a fact Of very grave Sig
nticancc. With the army insubordinate and
the people divided civil war may Immediately

the Russian army. With. the Cars troops

Constantlnope open, diplomacy would have
startling surprises in store for Europe.
The most rc-asslrng feature OF this danger
Gus situation is the amiablity and nonchaan @
of the official press in Berlin and Vienna
Prince Bismarck s journals have not expressed
resentment nor even regret, but have accepted
Prince Alexander's reverse as an event that was
deferred for season, but has always been III
evitable In Vienna his deposition is regarded

In the hearing at Albany Squirc's connse'
have taken their cue from some remarks which
Governor Hill is reported to have uttered belore
he received Mayor Graces Recommendation
for the removal Of the Commissioner. lneS
saw that in view of the indictment OF Squire
and Flcnn il would be improper for the Cover
nor to pass upon The charges, since Ii he should
remove Squire the jury before whom the con-
spi,ators are TO he tried would be preludiced
by that fact. That result might follow, 1t IS
tIue. but this should not make the Governor hes
itatc. Besides, the thing works both ways.
If the Jury should convict Squire, that circum-
stance might influence the Governors decision.
Mr. He'll is to decide upon Sqlirc's fitness or
unftness to Re the head Of great city depart
mcnt. The jury is to determine whether
Squire has teen guilty of criminal acts. This
distinction should he made sharp and clear.
Squire's lawyers virtually asked for a postpone
ment of the case and promised to produce
Squire, Flynn, Judge Glldefsleeye, Mayor Ed
son and oihcr witnesses. Governor Hill will
doubtless welcome any excuse for delay until
he secs his way clear TO serve bis political
future by making a decision. But it Is his
PLAIN duty TO act on the case promptly.
