A DUDES AWFUL FIN.
Is IL . Movement I'm Favor of Eads'
Scheme:
Fron, AZ RnEtlnlors q nletiol,..

From the Baltimore Anlsttous.
The President wss not IN good humor
when he came into the East Room to-day.
Something evidently had ruflied him, and he
seemed determ ned 10 outvit some Of the
newspaper men, who generally watch the re-
ception room from point Just behind where
he apds. To-day quito number OF the
men had gone across the room Oppo tic to
where they gener ally stand. When tine PFest-
dent came IN he WAS g idCntly intent upon
getting out of earshot OF the newspaper men,
and so. without looking at the corner where
the men generally stood, he remarked,
Pm stand over here to-day" and as
luck would have 1t, he vent directly
toward the group gathered on the other sue
OF the room. But the reception was a very
dull one. Nothing of interest occurred until
It was nearly over, when dude came into
the East Room leading pair of beagle
| hound. They were chained together, and
looked quite lnnocent. The young swell had
to wait a few minutes, because the President
was nusy talking to some friends. SO he
stood In the IN ddle of the room. The dogs
first sat down on their launches. Then one
began 10 payfully bite at the other leg. The
bitten dog returned the bite, and soon the
Two were rolling over the floor, biting and
snaFling at each other. The young dude
at the chain in his hand to mae
them stop. Some evil minded persons
In the crowd began to urge the dogs 10 hercer
combat by maAing Kissing sounds with their
no 1uths. the ushers looked uncomfortable.
Finally, the Presidents friends moved on,
ana IL was the dudes turn to speak to Mr..
Cleveland. The dogs were still so much en-
crossed with each other that they did not he'll
his all. So, when he moved off, he pulled the
chain in his hand, the other end belLg at
tached to their collars. and the sudden jerk
threw tne dogs of their ieet; but the young
man walked on, the dogs following, being
dragged past the Presioent on their backs.
very audible smile passed over the faces #
the people IN the East koOn as the dude re-

Hke they were at a skating rink.

Pesstnism.


There are matters whose existence
DO not count for much resistance,
Or for wear;
On the adv mt OF au issue
Like the frailest Il m of tissue
They will tear.
There's the pompous resolution
With Its iron -clad constitution
People make;
When 1t jars against trial
Or tho rocS OF self denial
1t will break.
There's the definite assertion
That defies all controverSion,
TIL it's tried;
When some intellect sagacious
Shows the maker l. mendacious
And has Lied.
There's the friendly protestation
or devotion sans cessation
That we hear;
Turn by tria INFO treason
With It's own autumnal season.
Dead and sere.
There's that youthful dream ambition,
An e&plosIve-one ignition
Will destroy;
And the golden-huedi ideal
Sadly tempered by the real
ltn aIOys
There's the stolen kiss enhancing
Whom the thri | is madty dancing
Through the nerves;
And the Subsequent revealing
OF some other Eel ow stealing
Your preserves.
There's the palliative of trusting
Until unmerciful adjusting
Sets you straight;
And the pnilosophic plaster
You apply to this disaster.
Is, ''it's fate,'

The observation-disclosures interview.

The Lowell-HawthOrne interview.
The New York World undertakes to
excuse Mr.. Julian Hawthorne for pub
fishing in that journal, in the shape of an
interview, a conversation that he had
with Mr.. James Russell Lowell respect
ing certain matters relating to English
society ard politics, on the ground that
Mr.. Lowell must have known that Mr..
Hawthorne was interviewing him, be-
cau-e he was questioned upon such a
variety OF subjects.
This Is certainly a very poor excuse
80 poor, in fact, that IL amounts to no ex-
cuse at all. MIR. Hawthorne, who is not
a journalist, and as far as Mr.. Lowell
knew had no connection with any news
paDer, called upon Mr.. Lowell in
friendly way. and engaged him in a yerv
lengthy and interesting conversation
Mr.. Lowell talked very freely with Mr..
Hawthorne, whose father was one Of his
warmest friends, because he bad a very
high regard for him, and, besides, Mr.
Hawthorne is quite well known as a
writer of fiction. Under these circum-
stances, how was Mr.. Lowell to now that
Mr.. Hawthorne was interviewing him |?
MIR. Hawthorne took no notes, and, as far
az any one knows, gave no hint that he in
tended to make Mr.. LoweU's views the
means of putting money in,o his pocket.
1t will be generally admitted that Mr.,
Hawthorne's conduct in this matter is
not creditable to him, and journalists
who feel just pride in their profession
are doubtless glad that he cannot be
classed as a journalist. Mr.. Lowell has
good reason TO complain that his hos
pitality and confidence were grossly
abused. He has also another ground for
complaint against Mr.. Hawthorne. 1t is
that he Is made to say In the interview
things which he did not say. Views are
attributed to him which are directly con-
trary to those which he entertains. Mr.,
Hawthorne did the friend of his father
and his host a double injury, all for
the sake Of putting few dollars
into his pocket. The Boston Post
says that the only thing that can be
pleaded in extenuation of Mr.. Raw
thorne's ofense OF making Mr.. Lowell say
things ne did not say is that he is story
teller by profession. IL further says,
which is true, that if MIR. Lowell had
opened his budget of gossip in the expan-
siveness of the after-dinner mood to any
trained newspaper man, instead of to a
professional writer of fclion, he would
not have been betrayed.

Respectfully Referred to Southern Pro-
tecttoniats

From the PhjiadelD6iG Tunes (Ind.)
Between such great party leaders as james
u. Blal ne and John Sherman and the people
there should be truth, and unless words mean
nothing in party platform, they and their
party are soIemnly pledged to the people to
TeVise the tarf and reduce the revenues.
Under the administration OF President Cleye-
IAN the revenues have increased and the ex
pendltures have diminished, and the call is
all the more impera i've for the reduction of
the treasury surplus and thus les en- the bur-
den of taxation where it falls upon
our Industry. Why are Mr. Blaine and Mr..
sherman silent on this obi gator. they gave to
a nation thar is needessly faxed ana that has
seen its legislation corrupted by scores of
millions OF unwanted money in the Treasury2
l. they could not attain just tariff revision
they could be excused, but they could have
attained it: they could have redeem Ell their
pledge to the oppressively tsxeH industries of
The lana. but they would not. They not only
refused to do so, but they denouuce every
effort made TO attain the tariff revision they
declared public necessity. Be honest with
the Larih; be honest with the people, and just
tarlff revision will come with just protection
TO our industry.

Blaine Not n Statesman.

! Two Republican leaders who are very
close 70 alr. BiaIne are reported as hav-
! ing sad tnat he is not a candidate for the
Presidency, and that his name will not be
| presented to the next national convention
/ of his party unless there's such a demand
| for ais nomination that it would not be
wise 10 resist it. J; Will be f1icult TO
make anyone believe that Mr.. Blaine is
rot now doing all that he can TO make it
impossible for his party to nominate any
ore else. His aim Is to keep himself
PROMINENT! before the country. so that
when the time for making nomination
comes the rank ard file of his party will
favor him.
Mr.. Blaine is not a statesman in any
sense OF the word, but be is an able, bril-
amt man, and an exceedingly adroit poll
TIC an. lie has succeeded in pushing aim
self to the front, where men who have
much better claim to b. considered states-
men have been passed by almost unuo
ticed. Mr.. aine's admirers, OF course,
consider that he is a statesman, but they
would be puzzled to point to anything
that be has ever suggested or done which

When be was in Congress ne made
smart speeches, but he proposed no great

net he proposed a foreign policy which
tickled the fancy Of few, but which was
regarded as impracticable by the really
able men of his party, ard which, per-

life be has written letter proposing that
the surplus in the Treasury shall be dis
tri6nted among the States. 1t does not
command the serious attention Of any
body, either in or out of Congress.
When it Is said that Mr.. Blaine is
fine orator and a brilliant and magnetic
man, everything is said for him that can
be said. That be is not a man or great

much OF demagogue that ne lie ready to

his speeches in Pennsylvania plainly
show. His statements respecting the
wages of negro laborers at the South have
been proven to be without foundation, and
vet he keeps on repeating them. Doubt
less he has known all along that they were
not correct. They answer his purpose.
however, because they alarm the white
workingmen at the North, and tend to
make them believe that their only way to
save themselves from a grinding poverty
is to give the Republican party their
united and enthusiastic support. II Mr..

Our Indian Policy.

Jefferson Davis has very interesting
article IN the North American Review for
November on 1.-The Indian Policy of the
United States" This is subject TO
which Mr.. Davis has given a great deal Of
study, and what he says about It. there
fore. is valuable and worthy OF careful
consideration. He reviews the history or
this policy and reaches the conclusion
that while il is more humane than that OF
any other country which has Rad savsgts
to deal with, it has been Disappointing
because It is inherently defective. More
could have been done. be thinks, towards
weaving the Indian from the precarious
occupation Of trapping ard hunting and
leading him by slow degrees towards the
habits OF civilized man.
The following extract from the article
OF Mr.. Davis has especial interest. in
view OF the efforts that are
now being made to open the
Indian Territory 10 settlement:
Wherever the general government
yields to the pressure OF people who de-
mand that the land OF the Indians should
be opened for settlement, by removing
tnem from place which they had so far
reduced TO cultivation as to make them
selves self-sustaining, the mask of pur-
pose thereby to benefit the Indians should
be pulled OF tor very shame at its hypoc-
risy. The reports OF commissioners and
agents, CLOSED over as they have been,
sufficiently show the cruel injustice and
hardship inflicted by the policy of re-
peated removals.
1t is true that in most cases where the
Indians have been removed from reserva-
tons an attempt has been made to create
the impression that the government was
acting for the good of the Indians, when
the truth was that the interests and well
fare of the Indians were only minor con-
siderations. Doubtless the efforts to open
the Indian Territory will finally succeed,
but the indians who inhabit the greater
part OF il are sufficiently civilized to take
pretty good care Of their own interests.

added to the rolls, and the names OF ., l29
were restored, making 40,0S6 added
during the year. During the same period
22,0S9 were dropped, leaving the net in.
crease 2065S. The annual aggregate
value OF all pensions is Sii.1OS, OF A. The
amount paid for pensions last yeat
was S63, 797, S3l 81. Since 1861 the num-
bAr Of pension claims fled tor disability

ing Il ted by widows, children and depend
