A PARAGRAPH is going the rounds of the
newspapers that bears the Impress vi
ialsehood upon its face. II is to the
effect that Senators Vest and Cocklell
called on the president TO urge the APP
pointment of ex-Gov. Crittenden of Mis-
souri, 10 an Office that he sought The
president replied that he could not think
OF such u thing; IL was believed in the
East that Gov. Crittenden had conspired
with the Fords to assassiuatc jesse
James, and on that account the appoint
ment would be so unpopular that he dared
not make It. There are two very good
reasons to discrodlt the truth Of this,
Mr.. Cleveland is not the man TO think OF
the popularity or mpopularlty OF an APP
plIcant, II he is otherwise qualified for the
place he seeks; aud II Crlttenden did have
anything to do with Kidding the state Of
Jesse james 1t was the best act of his
administration,

Mr.. Reagan scored bull's.eye shot at
the demagoguos when he said TINT sin
bills relating to pensions the contest was
not SO much one about doing justice to
the soldiers as il was contest for politi-
cal supremacy and bid for the votes OF
soldiers He further asserted, as are
suit OF his own observation and knowl-
edge, that Democratic congressman urged
Democrats 20 vote for the arrears OF pen
sions act because II would give them the
soldiers vote, and Republicans urged
Republican congressman to vote for Il be-
cause e would give then the soldiers
vote and enable them TO heat the Demo.
Gratis at their own game. Nobody who
has watched the course Of legislation
upon pension bills can doubt the correct
ness Of Mr.. Rcagan's statements. The
country has been shamotully robbed by
demagogues for their own personal or
partisan advantage. They have voted
hundreds Of millions Of the public

One would think any man or child in
these days knew enough to discriminate
between the revenue, marine and naval
services. The navy has no more to do
with the revenue cutters than IL has to do
with the Apache war. The navy of our
country has never been accused of lacking

with which our so-called statesmen sup
ply it. We suppose the writer came from

THE true inwardness of the efforts
Of the Iowa Prohibltlonists TO inn
peach Judge Hayes on Che charge
Of eyading the enforcement Of the
liquor law is now explained. More
than that, he was the Democratic candi-
date for supreme Judge of Iowa two
years ago, and came near defeating his
Republican opponent. Such an offense Is
sufficient to carry his impeachment TO
trial. and probably TO convict him. To
be a Democrat Is, in Iowa, the worst of
crimes, but to be elected to Office as a
Democrat, defeating Republican, is be-
yond the pale Of forgiveness.
