Public Documents not Private Property.

The New York Independent, which
has always supported the President in
his pretenses of civil service reform.
cannot stand his claim that certain
public documents are his private
papers. 1t makes the following points
against his pretensions:
That while the President, like every
other person, has the exclusive right to
his oton private papers, no such papers
can with any propriety DE placed on
the official files in any Office of the
government. The President has no
more right to put them there than the
humblest citizen in the land.
2. That all papers addressed to the
President as such, relating to public
affairs, and by him, either in whole or
in part, made the basis of his official
action, should be placed on the official
files in the proper executive depart
ment, and are to be regarded as public
papers, belonging not to the President,
as his private papers, or to the head of
the department in which they are de-
posted, but to the people of the United
States for any proper public use.
3. That it is the right of either house
OF Congress to call for, inspect and
examine certified copies of all such
public papers, for any purpose, which,
IN its Judgment, makes this expedient,
and that, when either house of Con-
gress makes an order to this effect, il is
the Imperative duty of the department
having the papers in custody to comply
herewith, and that any order of the
President interfering with such COM
pliance is grave improperly.

A Great Victory
A Terrible Case of Scrofula
Cured by
Hoods SarsapariIla

In the winter of 1879 1 was attacked with
Serofula in one of the most aggravating forms.

assesses over and aroundmy neck and throat.
continually exuding an offensive mass of
bloody matter disgusting to behold, and
almost intolerable to endure. 1t is impossible
to fully describe my sufferings, as the case
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
three years of misery, having been treated by
three physicians, was worse than ever.
Finally, on the recommendation of w. j.
Huntley, druggist, Of Lockport, 1 was induced
TO try Hoods Sarsaparilla. And now, after
having taken twelve bottles, within the last
twelve months, the scrofulous eruptions have
entirely ceased, and the assesses have all
disappeared, except the unsightly scars, which
are daily becoming smaller by degrees. and

the papers in the Duskin case, on file
in public office-papers of which he

one could complain If he saw fit to
destroy them, he would lay himself
liable to a heavy fine and imprisonment

Senator Pugh's reply to Senator
Edmunds' speech of Tuesday is largely
n juggling of words, and was hardly
worthy of the subject or the occasion.
The President had declared that there
had been no official papers or docu-
ments in the Duskin case filed with the
attorney general, and that statement,
Senator Pugh maintained, ought to
settle the whole question. The Senate
had not called for public, but for "pri-
yate documents relating exclusively to
an official act of the President Ac-
cording to Senator Pugh's theory the
President is the sole judge as to what
papers filed in the various departments
are to be regarded as public and what
as private. Carried to its logical con-
clusion, such a doctrine would be full of
danger. Senator Pugh also thinks it
wrong to criticise the attorney general
for obeylng the orders of the President,
for had he not done so, be would have
rendered himself 'liable to instant
dismissal from the cabinet" This
would doubtless have been very I'M
pleasant alternative, particularly for
Mr.. Garland, but whether it would
serve as valid excuse for disregarding
n duty, is quite another question.
