Bright Republican Outlook

The Democrats. started ont In the
Flfty-ninth Congress with q majority
OF forty-one. They had just elected
and inausurated their first President
they had for twenty-four years and the
Indications were that they had come to
stay. But the tirs. Congress of the
present Democratic administration has
drawn almost to close and what is
the situation? This strong, defiant
party, that came into power with so
much hope and promise, has been shat
tered by its own folly and the obs.ina.
cy OF Its own President. The indu.-
Trial interests OF the nation have been
attacked, business confidence has been
destroyed and hundreds OF thousands
OF working men are either out OF EN-
ployment or are working for a pittance
that scarcely sufi,es to keep soul and
body together Democratic rule has
sickened upon the hands OF those who
placed 1t In power. 1t is offsns i've to
che loyal heart OF the nation to 20 TO
Warrington and find the Con tederate
Generals who fought to destroy the
2ation, In the saddles OF governments.
1t Is offensive TO find these same Con-
federate Generals and Colonels of the
oid confederate army voting solidly for
aree trade, that being the best known
method by which they could break
down the National industries and Grip
pie the loyal North. But these alta ,ks
are bringing forth fruit. The people
are finding out that they have made a
great mistake by placing the Demo-
cratic party In power, and they intend
TO undo that work at the next election.
There seems to be but little doubt now
that o Waterloo awaits the administrs
tion. A correspondent writing from

that there Is hardly any doubt that they

The North Pole Crank.

In former years the expeditions In
search OF the North Pole were lo1 ked
upon In the light Of scientific discoy-
cries, and as such received the patron.
age and support OF the government.
Those W no persisted In the futile a,tem ut
to cross the Polar Sea and reach the
other side OF the world were looked
upon rs martyrs, and their names have
been held In venerAted remem brance
by grateful nation. Bnt there have
been 30 many ineffe ,tual attempts to
reach the North Pile that 1t has not
been deemed feasible for any more ex-
petitions TO be sent out on o fools
errand," for that Is really what those
expeditions have become. The last
North Pole crank Is Colonel Glider, who
has star ted on an expedition on his own
account. He started, however, with q
pretty clear understanding that he has
no sy mpathy from any body, and II he
gets into trouble he will be left to get
ont Of 1t unaided. Colonel Glider starts
with but one companion from the
States, and expects to depend upon
such Esquimaux parties ~ he may
meet for escort to the trading stations
In the far North. According to his pre-
dictions, 1t will be two years before he
reaches q point from which to make q
dash for the North Pole"
He thinks that one or two men would
have better chance to reach this goal
than . large, heavily-equipped party.
This may be true, but the one or two
men may find it more difficult to con-
vince the world that they had accom-
plished their purposes, even though
they hAd really succeeded. Even II the
North Pole Is ever discovered it will
never be Of any practical benefit to the
mercantile world. 1t can never be
made direct route to the other side OF
the world, owing to the dangers tina.
lie In Its course. Its discovery might
contribute something to the cause OF
science, II any body would be so fortu-
nate IS to be permitted to return from
that death trap, but that would be all.
Every attempt made to reach 1t yet
where any advance has been made has
resulted in nothing but death and dis
aster. Daring the rapids Of Niagara
and jumping from Brooklyn Bridge |
have been more successful.
The Philadelphia Ledger evidently
has no faith in Colonel elders scheme,
and forewarns the people of Baron
Nun chausen stories among travellers, |
especially In regions from where no de.
NAL OF their tales, nor confirmat lion |
either, could be obtained. Colonel Gill
der's plan, moreover, involves nothing |
more than the mere reaching OF
higher point than has yet been reached
by Civilized men. This Is feat that
might be appreciated in dime museums,
but has little interest to the practical
world.
The only plausible and not always
rational excuse for previous costly az.
tempts to reach the North Pole has
been the possible additions to the store
OF human knowledge to be obtained
from such expeditions Colonel elders
plan promises nothing OF this sort. HsI
trip Is on par with Graham's voyage
through the Niagara rapids in barrel, |
or that other man with q cork Jacket,
or with the leaps OF Brodie and Dono-
van from the Brooklyn Bridge. They
are all cranks together.

Reasons for the Senator's Bitter Attack on
the Pensions Commissioner.
Special to the Indianapolis journal.
WASHINGTON, May 28-Some comment has
been created by the attack recently made by
Senator ingalls, upon Commissioner of Pensions
Black. The attack was not surprise. 1t has
been expected for some time Black, whose posi-
tion is rather an ambiguous one, has been ac-
cused. and there is no doubt that the accusation
is very well founded, with retarding final action
upon pension cases, to the best of his ability.
One member of Congress asserts that he has had
upwards of twenty notices from the Pension Of
fee in which he has been informed that the cases
to which the notices relate have been proved up,
as far as be judged, up to the time of writing,
but that further investigation" is to be made,
and If nothing is found against the claimants
their claims will be allowed at once. This
was one of the reasons that induced
Mr.. ingalls, to open fire upon the great
reform Commissioner of Pensions; but the most
potent reason for it was the fact that Mr.. 10
gals was induced, some years ago, to report fa-
vorably the bill which placed Mr.. Black on the
pension rolls with the exceptional pension of
$l00 a month. Ingalls, was led to believe that
the General was mentally and physically incapa-
BILE of doing anything toward the support of his
family. Ingalls, feels that he was imposed upon,
and that the friends of Black, in their zeal in
his behalf, lied to him without cause. It is this
that caused him to open up so bitterly upon the
gentleman from Illinois. There is a very
prevalent feeling in the House, as well as in the
Senate, that Mr.. Black should report his own
- =
as Commissioner of Pensions he is certainly not
entitled to draw 81, 200 year as a totally dis
sbled pensioner But, then, Black is one of
those men who believe in getting all they can
and hanging on to all they get.
