THE PLAN TO GUST POWDERLY.
In the Election OF the Executive
Board.
CLEVELAND, O., June 2.-The entire morn
ings session of the Knights of Labor con-
vention was devoted to the election of the
executive board. The election was by Sc
cret ballot and it is evident from the actions
of the delegates as they filed out of the con-
vention hall and the significant utterances of
some of them, together with the fact that
only three of the members were chosen, that
a lively time was had. The three members
elected are: James E. Quinn of New York,
Hugh Cavanagh of Cincinnati and William
H. Molten of Richmond, Va. From what
can be learned from delegates who SO
far relax their vigilance as to an
swer question or two, it is gathered
that the principal fight was over the election
of Quinn. 1t is strongly intimated that his
election is the shadow which the coming
event of internal dissension and perhaps dis
Indignation has cast before. Quinn is a
member of the New York Home club, the
notorious select assembly within District
Assembly 40 which has for its motive the
ousting of Powderly from the grand master
workmanship as well as other prominent Of
fcers to make room for its aspiring leaders.
As the election of officers does not occur I'M
til the annual convention at Richmond next
October, it was not presumed that the con-
fct would invade the precincts of the pres
ent session. Quinn, who has been promi-
nently identified with the Home club since its
origin, was unexpectedly put forward
as candidate for place on the executive
board, and much more Unexpectedly sue
ceeded in being elected 1t is now thought
that the candidacy of Quinn was simply
feeler to determine the extent of the Home
club sentiment with the Knights of Labor.
Powderly's friends are surprised and cha
grined at the success of a man who was
known as representative of the anti Pow
derby feeling. The friends of the Home
club movement on the other hand are daz-
zled by the success they have achieved, and
it may now be expected to be more arrogant
and persistent in it's purpose than ever.

But aside from the worry which NAV
or may not be connected with it, there
is such thing as overstudy, study
which may be carried to an injurious
length. Many student has continued
his intellectual pursuits with unalloyed
and untroubled pleasure until wearied
brain has compelled him to stop. Study
such as this, long persisted in, will al
most inevitably result in an oyerworked
and possibly enfeebled brain, unstrung
nerves, and consequent loss of bodily
health. The brain is physical as well
as mental organ, and, like all human
organs, will endure only limited
stress. Moreover, the intimate con-
nection between the brain and the
nervous system seems sometimes to
give them an almost equal share in
each others affections. SO true is this
that it would be difficult, if at all posi-
BILE, to define the difference in the emo
tons produced by mental exaltation and
high nervous pressure; and the ex-
haustion following each OF these emo
tons is the same or similar, The dam
ger of great and continued mental pres
sure is of the same kind. Those who
have had an acquaintance with children
supposed to be victims of overstrldy or
of a school system, know that their
trouble is, rs rule, If not invariably, a
nervous affection. They are often IL
ritable, easily excited, and lacking in the
power of self-control. If they do not
die or lose their minds from the strain
to which they have been subjected,
their health is often irreparably in
iured and they pass the remainder of
their days in a state of semi-invalid-
ism. -ChicaoO Current

the third party Prohibitionists. They desire q
party OF their own, just small enough to have
no effect at ali, or possible, Just large enough
to throw the state into the hands OF the Demo-
cratic party, which has been az constant In its
hostility to prohibition as the Republican party
OF Maine has been constant in its fidelity to
prohibition.
The pos ton and platform in the third party
might, in fact, be thus abbreviated. Whereas,

amended it as a majority of the friends OF tenn.

| have through ull these years opposed prohibit

SENATOR BLACKBURN, of Kentucky, is
a Democrat without flaw from one end of
his record to the other. He declares that
in q conversation with the President few
days ago he made use Of the following
vigorous language Mr.. Cleveland"
said, IF / were President of the United
States l would call my Cabinet together and
say, Gentlemen, if there is single Re
publican otficeholder in your departments
at the expiration of a period of ten days
Your designations will be accepted forth
with. Briefly, consider civil service the
biggest humbug ever perpetrated upon the
American people" Mr.. Blackburn doubt
less speaks the sentiment Of ninety nine
Democrats in every hundred, but the trouble
is that the administration does not dare
make clean sweep. The experience of
the President has not encouraged him to
attempt such thing. Even as it is, the
public service is all but demoralized, and
the postal service, at least, is worse con-

How the President "Sat Up Nights" to Veto
soldiers Pension Bills.
Since the adjournment of Congress some
interesting facts have been developed
touching the manner in which many of the
veto messages which accompanied the re-
turn to Congress of pension bills disap-
proved by the President, were prepared.
IL appears, as soon as bills were introduced
in Congress in behalf of claimants whose
cases were rejected by the Pension Office,
all the papers filed i'll the Pension Office
were Immediately turned over to board
composed of three clerks in the office, none
of whom were soldiers. This board went
over the papers, sitting in the room of the
chief clerk for this purpose, and, after
making condensed briefs. actually prepared
the veto messages, many of which were
sent by the President to Congress. In n
number of cases it is reported that the
vetoes We're thus prepared prior to the pas
sage of the bills. Thus there was kept on
hand at the Pension Office ready. made
vetoes to fit cases on the merits of which
Congress had not acted, and when the
Legislative act of relief was received at the
White House the required veto would be
promptly supplied by the Pension Office

plain the leyity contained in many of the
Presidents vetoas of the claims of desery-

The Question Of the Dar.

The question Of this year is whether the
people have any dsfnite judgment TO ex-
press regarding eighteen months of Demo-
cratic government other than that which
they expressed when Democrats were max
ing profuse promises in 1884. If they
have not, if they are as ignorant or indif-
ferent as ordinary Democratic politicians
suppose, there will be Democratic ma
jority in the next House. But if the peo-
pie lave an intelligent opinion about what
has been going on, it they are indignant
at the discovery that Democratic reform is
cheat. if they are Inundated at the re-
aovals and appointments which have been
made in the name of reform. if they are
outraged because their interests have been
neglected while Democrats have wrangled
and played the demagogue, then we shall see
change of votes and a political revolu-
ton. 1t will amaze the ordinary Demo-
cratic politicians when it comes, as usual,
because they calculate that the people are

careless about public honesty, and rs ignor-

with Southern town with hard name. 1t
will he remembered that Hazlehurst, Mis-

sassination of Prent Matthews, promi-
nent Republican, who was murdered by the
Democrats. Matthews brother, who was
Postmaster, was removed to make room for
Meade, who was nfterward removed for
having participated in tue murder Of Mat
thews. Then the President appointed one
McMaster to be Postmaster, and he, with
true Democratic instinct, has turned up
defaulter to the amount Of $1,000. He in
turn has been removed by n postoflice in
spector, and the patrons of the Office are
anxiously waiting to see what will be the
