The Presidents Domestic Affairs.

Some of the newspapers are trying 20
make it appear that MI. Cleveland is
guilty of great social offending because
he does not tell them and the world
whether or not he is going to marry Miss
Folsom. They represent him as putting
her In a very awkward position for
they CONSIDERABLY say, what a terrible
modification she will suffer and how
she will be compromised if after all the
talk, she fails to become White House
bride 1t is notable that the news
papers which have been least considerate
CT Miss Folsom's feelings and least re-
gardful of the presidents right to
privacy about his private affairs, are the
most distressed about this lasC phase Of
gossip. They would doubtless give a
big price to get exclusive" informa-
tion oD the subject whereas they do
not like to venture too near the toe of
the White House boot in search of it.
The president is under no obligation
to break the reserve which he has thus
far kept on this purely personal and pri-
vate matter. He is in no way response
bic for any of these reports; some OF his
relatives and more of hers have talked
a good deal and probably most that
has been ascribed to them is the inven-
tion of the news -mongers. It is their
way.
The president rightly complains that
he has not the right of private citizen;
some of them, of course, he cannot ex-
pect to have; but the one inalienable
privilege, which neither the constitu-
tion nor the newspapers can take away
from him, is to marry whom and when
and how his fancy pleases and his judg-
ment approves; and he is under no obli-
CATION to submit his programme in ad
vance.-LdncdSter IlttelLige1tcer.

the anarchy and murder he wished but
in which he had not the courage to lead.
Having inhamed his followers to law

to mislead working men into crime as a
cover to them In rapine and death.
While no public necessity can excuse
any departure from the settled policy Of
the law to reach exceptional criminals
In a government founded in the liberty
of law, the cases of the foreign anar-
chists and murderers now under arrest
for crimes against both persons and
property, should be prosecuted to the
uttermost and the extreme measure of
legal punishment inflicted upon them.
When they are proven accessories to
murder, as in Chicago, they should be
tried and executed as promptly as the
proper administration of justice will
permit and where they have failed in
intended murder, as in New York, but
are guilty of melting to riot, they should
be speedily convicted, imprisoned to
hard labor. and thereby taught their
first lesson in honest work. The ouly
possible way that any of these foreign
anarchists can be made to work, is to
put them In prison and the law against
melting to riot should be rigidly en-
forced until these brawling, cowardly
criminals are driven from the land.

Much unreasoning complaint is made
that the present Congress IS doing moth
ing. The merits of Congress in these
times are best tested by the bad meas
ures which il stiles. rather than by the
good legislation which 1t accOmplishes.
In this point of view the Forty ninth
Congress is doing a great deal to com
mend it to the favorable judgment Of
the country. On Tuesday the Hennepin
Canal scheme was so badly crippled that
1t will hardly again make It's appearance
in the House. The Eads Ship-railroad
project has gone by the board, and the
Tehuantepec Canal has not been able to
lift its head. The Blair Educational
bill, with Its gigantic appropriation OF
seventy seven million dollars. is vainiy
struggling to get through a committee
OF the House. There Is a considerable
number OF other jobs, great and small,
whose certain prospect of defeat attests
the spirit Of the present Congress. What
enhances the merit Of the majority of
the House Is the fact that there is par
tisan disposition In the Republican
minority TO promote bad jobs in order to
throw the responsibility on their oppon-
ents. This was seen conspicuously on
Tuesday In the vote on the Hennepin
Canal bill. The great body of the Re-
publicans voted to suspend the rules in
favor Of thebill less from friendliness to
the Job than from a desire to help the
Democrats to swell the expenditures Of
the Government. This may be smart
but it is bad statesmanship.
The people of this country are not so
dumb as not to know where TO place the
for reckless and extrava-
CANT legislation. PhilHdelphid Record.

Charges Against a Judge.

The work of attacking evil Influences
in political places seems to be spreading.
from the reports that are heard concern
irg the charges of bribsry and corrup-
tion against Judge Wilson, of the CIar-
ion-Jefferson district. A legal test of
the charges is to be made, it is said. bv
a general information, that will be pre-
sented to the Attorney General. as a ba-
sis for him to apply for writ of quo
warranto from the Supreme Court.
Upon the charges that this Judge used
improper methods In his political can
vass, it is hard TO see how any other
course than applying for such proceed
ings coul1 be taken. The vital point
Is, of course, as to the truth OF the
charges, for the decision Of which we
must wait for the evidence in the case.
But the bench should be placed above
even the suspicion of such practices /:
and until public opinion removes judicial
elections from the field of political In
f1uences, the only way left is to have
such accusations promptly tested. to
punish the person If he is guilty, and to
vindicate him II innocent.-P pittsburgh

What SedaIitIes Are,

The word sodality signifies a society,
but it is generally applied to Catholic
societies having for their object the
spiritual advancement of their members.
The sodality, like many other great in
stitutions of the Catholic church, origi.
mated in a young mems religious gath
ering st Rome, but to-day it embraces,
in separate societies, married mems
sodalities, married ladies' sodalities.
young ladies' sodalities and young mems
sodalities. Though existing as separate
societies. they are all partakers of the
communion of spiritual benefits derived
from membership of the entire amalga-
mated sodalities the world over, but
this is subject to the condition of affilia-
alton with the original sodality, or
Prima Pumaria, at Rome, The sodalisy
is the largest society under the Hgis of
the Catholic church, and in every land
is fostered zealously by the clergy so
that to-day hundreds of thousands are
numbered in its ranks. Nearly all of
the Catholic churches of Boston have
sOdalities, which are separated accord
ing to age and sex, the young men g
sodalities proving by their vitality that
it is the only society which can attract
the young men permanently to church
affairs.
The sodality is not "beneht" associa-
tion in the usual Interpretation of the
word. 1t is simply devotional, and in
tended to keep alive the spirit of reli-
gion in the young man or young woman
after leaving Sunday school, neveIthe-
less, they often engage in puplic enter
prises for some deserving object. The
mode of election in sodalIties is quite
limited, the council or officers OF the
society being invested with the power of
choosing their successors; but socialists
never mind such affairs as they consider
the sodalitY society where individuals

its cause. The meetings are held once
a week for about one hour, when the

AS the United States is IN the hands
OF the railroad corporations. the land
monopolists do not take on very much
agony about the land bills now before
Congress. The Senate Is their strong
hold. They feel safe, let the House do
what it has a mind to in regard TO the
matter. 1t is estimated that il the Land
Grant Forfeiture bills now before Con-
gress are passed there will be restored to
the public domain nearly If not quite
120 900. 600 acres of land now wrongfuIly
withheld from the Government and the
people. A majority of the measures for
recovering this immense domain Lave
been reported by the House Committee
on Public Lands. and all OF them should
be passed by that body before this present

have these lands in their possession are
entirely confident that the Senate will
stand by them in any emergency. Ad-
mitting this to be true, the House still
has a duty TO perform which should not
