The president has defined his position
ments and reaf1irmed his intention to
MAINTAIN the secrecy of the charges un-
der which republican officials were
removed. The minority Of the senate
judiciary committee in the same breath
endorses the position OF the president.
Mr. Cleveland takes the ground that
| documents which effect the removal of
| officials are not official documents, con-
sequently he feels bound to
consider them as private and per-
sonal eplstles to himself in his
individual capacity. With him it goes
for naught that these productions have
an important effect upon the official
status of parties who are surrept1tionsly
arraigned and clandestinely condemned.
The truth which the administration is
endeavoring to conceal is that ma
lority of the charges upon which officials
have been removed are false and ma
licious and that many of them involve
the perjury of the principal witnesses.
Treating the subject in the abstract, the
| New York Sun gives this effective pre-
sentation of the case.
II an officer is removed from his post
| at the pleasure of the appointing power,
and for purely party reasons, if you
| please, the removal casts no dis
credit upon his character. II this rule
is laid down, however, that no removals
are to be made except for cause, it be.
comes distinct imputation against q
man to remove him from Office. Where
this rule is adopted; therefore, justice
| demands that the acts
which led to removals should
be made known not only to the
officer affected. but to the people, in
order that they may Judge whether the
accusation has been established or not.
from Office should be exercised In such q
manner as to make removal possible
| without reproach to the removed officer
or the reason for turning him out should
be stated in every instance as a matter
of public record. To say to the world
II have removed this man from Office TO,
cause"-that Is, because he has proved
unfit and unfaithful as public servan.
and at the same time to say, "bnt
will not let the people or their represen
tatives know what misconduct is alleged
against him" is to assume the despotit
power to destroy character without
question. "Ob, it is excellent to have {
giants strength, but it is tyrannous Il
use it like giant"

LOOK UP.

Look upi the world is wide. On land and
sea,
On ship or shore, there is no rust, no rest;
A heart throbs outward from each human
breast,
And moves it onward to its destiny.
What if it's hidden doom must end in death?
Why, meet it bravely, with the honest
thought
Of no good deed undone, no ruin wrought
To kill the hope that soothes dying breast
He who would soar from darkness into light,
And, like Icarus, mount on waxen wings,
Will never reach and touch the golden
springs
That open the gates which close upon the
night
Who rises, lifting others up with him.
Is strong indeed. Within his call or reach
Are hands that aid hi,m-hearts that help
him teach
What he has learned himself, and taught to
them.
We build our thoughts like mountains to the
clouds,
The mystery of our being still unsolved.
Save that we know our lives are not
evolved
For the sole end of filling empty shrouds.

Nea.ness in Girls.

Neatness is good thing for q girl,
and if she does not learn it when she is
young, she never will. 1t takes great
deal more neatness to make girl look
we'll than it does to make boy look
passable. Not because a boy, to start
with, is better looking than girl, but
his clothes are of different sort, not
SO many colors in them; and people
don't expect a boy to look so pretty as
a girl. A girl that is not neatly dressed
is called a sloven, and no one likes to
look at her. Her face may be pretty,
and her eyes bright, but if there is a
spot of dirt on her cheek, and her
fingers ends are black with ink, and
her shoes are not laced or buttoned up,
and her apron is dirty, and her collar
is not buttoned and her skirt is torn,
she cannot be liked. l went into a
little girls room once, and all her
clothes were on the floor, and her play
things, too. ] earn to be neat, and
when you have learned it, it will almost
take care of itself.

For n long time we steadily refused to pub
lisi testimonials, believing that. in the opinion
of the public generally, the great majority
wore manufactured to order by unprinciped
parties means OF dsposing of their worth
less preparations
That this view of the case is to a certain ex-
tent true, there can be no doubt.
At last, several years ago we came to the
conclusion that every intelligent person can
readily discriminate between spurious and
bona tide testimonials, and determined to use
advertisements a few of the many hur-
dreds of unsolicited certificates in our possess
sion.
In doing this we published them as nearly as
possible in the exact language used by our cor
respondents, only changing the phraseology, in
some cases, so as to compress them into a
smaller space than they would otherwise
occupy, but without in the least exaggerating
or destroying the meaning of the writer's.
We are glad to say that our final conclusion
was a correct one-that a letter recommend
ing an article having true merit finds favor
with the people.
The original of every testimonial published
by us Is on file in our office, an inspection of
which will prove to the most skeptical that our
assertion made above, that only the facts are
given as they appear therein, is true.
But as it would be very inconv enient, if not
impossible, for all of cur friends to call us
for that purpose, we invite those who doubt df
there be such), TO correspond with any of the
parties whose names are signed to our testi-
monia!s and ask them if we have made any
misstatements SO far as their knowledge eX-
tends, in this article. In other words, if we
have not published their letters as nearly YER
