WASHINGTON, March 27.-The special
committee of the Senate TO which was re-
ferred the report of the Pacific Railway
Commission, resumed its hearing yesterday.
Greed Raymond. counsel for the Central
Pacific. continued his remarks and Senator
Stanford submitted brief address TO the
committee. Senator Stanford said he de-
sired to emphasize a single statement,
which would sufficiently answer all the
vituperation which had been east upon
the builders of the road. He wished
the committee to he divested of the preju-
dice which the false stories about the con-
structiOn of the Central Pacific left in the
minds OF all who heard them. The state
ment which he wished the committee to
understand thoroughly was that the Cen
tral Pacific railway company had fulfilled
every obligation to the Government and
the people, imposed upon it by the acts of
Congress creating il. In not a sin
gle instance is it derelict. Up to
this hour it has been mindful OF
every duty it owed both 10 the public and
10 the Government. He then detailed what
the obligations were that the acts OF Con-
greSs imposed upon the company. In con-
cluSion Senator Stanford said he desired the
Committee in framing new legislation for
the company to bear in mind first, that the
company had performed all its
obligations. Second, that it had
saved enormous sums of money for
the Government. Third, that it never
made cent at the expense of the govern
ment or the people. Fourth, that the cost
of the road was doubled by the tremend-
Gus expedition OF its construction, from
which the government received great bene-
fit Fifth, that the debt owed 10 the gov
ernment will not be due for ten years, and
sixth that the relation OF the United States
to the Central Pacific is that OF a contract
which the government has nowno justifica-
ton IL violate

Gen. Robert p. Kennedy has been hon
ored with a denomination as candidate
for reelection, by the republicans of the
Eighth Ohio district, by acc!amation. The
General has served nearly through one ses-
sion and he has shown the good qualities
for which ne has become famous through
out the country. For arriving at his des-
tnation promptly, with both of his pedal
eXtremities, he has a reputation that
spans the continent. The General has not
spoken often on the floor of the House, but
when he has made an utterance it has been
timely and effective.
We may say something even better than
this of the General-nsmely-th he has
made personal efforts to acquaint himself
with the needs and wishes OF his cOnstitu-
ents and has been active and aggressive in
his work OF furthering them. He has
proved good, useful representative, thus
far, and he deserves the very high honor
th7t has just been bestowed upon him and
th9 warm welcome given him by his con-
Stituents.

Senator Ingalls, thinks that the style of
United States language he used in his late
speech. that has sawed into the solid south
so terribly, is not without precedent. We
infer this from the following remarks which
he made recently to Philadelphia gentle
man:
When | recall the course of the demo.
cratic party toward Mr.. Lincoln, whom
they habitually characterized as bab0on
and clown; toward Grant. whom they
styled butcher and drunkard: Hayes,
whom they described as fraud and thief.
and Garfield, as public plunderer, and
Arthur as a wine-biber and glutton. il is
interesting to inquire upon what theory Mr..
Cleveland is entitled to absolute immunity
from anything but praise and eulogy. l
adhere to my definition of Mr. Cleveland
and shall never hesitate TO say that when
he was elected to the presidency the public
service reached lOw-water mark, both NOR
ally and intellectually.

There is no question that the democratic
party is absolutely Indifferent as TO who
may he the nominee of the republican par
ty. Democratic hopes are firmly based on
Cleyeland's strength and party strength,
not on the republican weaknesses, which
are innumerable.-Toled Bee.
The democratic party has great deal
more sense than the Bee credits it with.
Its members who are wise cannot be indif-
ferent. They want the democratic
candidate TO be the strongest man in
his party and the republican candidate the
weakest in his party. They want and
need all the advantage that can fall TO
them in the nomination of each and all
parties. The same is true of the republi-
cans. They want the democrats to re-nom-
mate Cleveland because he is weak, and the
republicans to nominate Sherman because
he is strong.

Aud ended each letter with X. NJ. Q.
But alas the duration of true love was
short,
And was promptly invited to court.
Where he tried to explain. II was only a
trick,
For X. NJ. Q. simply meant, Come Kiss

Alas all their engineers went on strike
They can't get car moved. try as they like;
You see they've been paying poor wages

And that's why they lost all their best

Then the C. b. q Q. need not feel so sick
The letters will then mean Come Back

Contained in the monogram b. c. q.

The lowest priced clOthier is J. NJ. Knote ;
The spring line he bought is the finest in

And the goods are all marked with the
