A writer in the Chambers Journal
figures out from official data that the
number OF Smiths in England and
Wales is 355, S14 and that "there are
more Smiths in England and Wales
than there are people in Dublin-in,
deed excluding London there are only
four towns in the United Kingdom
namely; Birmingham, Glasgow,
Liverpool and Manchester
more people than there are Smiths,
while twenty-slx out of the f1ity-two
counties of England and Wales, or
one half, have fewer people than the
immortal house of Smith has repre-
IsentatIves."

The Soldiers Friend.

In ell his utterances, public and pri-
vate, Mr.. Cleveland has shown deep
interest IN the ex-soldiers and has fa-
yored generous recognition from the
Government. His acts have sustained
his utterances- He is entitled to the
gratitude of the men who are being led
by selfish politicians to criticise his
pension record. Republican Senators
and Representatives have taken the OPP
portunity since Mr.. Cleveland took the
oath Of Office to sneak in a lot of frau
dulent and 1imsy claims, with the
idea that If they became laws certain
constituents would get money and be
pleased, and if the President vetoed
them a howl about enmity 60 the
soldiers could be raised. Every body
knows the carelessness with which.
under the name of courtesy, members
of both houses vote for these private
bills. The responsibility was thrown
upon the President, and he met it with
the firm sense of responsibility he has
never lost for moment. The country
will applaud him and honest soldiers
will be first to extend commentator.

WHY L,TChMAN LEFT.

knights Tell Why Their Secretary Sold
Himself TO the Republican Party.
Charles II. Litchman, who is now
known among the Knights of Labor as
s'the creature who has sold himself 60
the Republican party" is the same
man who was denounced before the
General Assembly of the Knights of
Labor at Philadelphia in 1854 as ga de-
faulter and a thief by James E.
Quinn of this city. If Senator Matt
Quay gets the worth of his money out
of Litchman there are scores of Knights
of Labor in New York who will be
willing to subscribe their names to an
affidavit that Quay has done more than
ought to be expected Of him. The
Greenbackers tried him and tired of
him, and Ben Butler found him want
ing and kicked him OUT of che Butler
camp. He became Che grand scribe of
the Knights of Sc. Crispin and chung
to the Office until Che order was alb
sorbed in the Knights of Labor. Litch-
man was shrewd, and in spite of the
shadow chat enveloped his character,
he got a grip on Powderly through his
connection with elements of the order
that were in for what they
could get. The treasurer's report
presented to the General Assembly at
Minneapolis in 1887 showed that the
receipts of the order for the previous
year had been $497, 900. The report
did not show, in detail, how this vast
sum of money had been spent, and
those who attempted to obtain de-
tailed report were frowned upon by
Litchman and his gang. It is known
that S6, 900 of the half-million was ex-
pended for printing and supplies
and that Litchman did much of the
printing, The report showed that
only $17. 1000 remained in the treasury,
and this amount dwindled down to
81, 200 after the mileage of the mem
bers of the General Assembly had been
paid. It is well known that the treas
ury of the Knights of Labor is bank
rupt and no salaries have been paid.
Litchman has not received any salary
for six weeks, and this fact, added to
the knowledge possessed by him that
the Knights are tired of paying money
to people who will not account for it,
is generally considered sufficient reason
for his sale of himself to the Republican
party. Powderly is known to be in

The Senate's Treacherv.

President C1eveland's best efforts
for amicable settlement having been
rejected by the Senate, there remains
but one other means OF protecting our
INSTRUMENTATION. 1t is amazing
that the Republican Senators did not
see the yawning pie opening just be-
fore theme that they did not realize
that the President had but to write
this message to push them into it.
They had meant merely to throw dis
credit upon the Presidents diplomacy;
they forgot all about the necessary al
tentative. They have rejected enc
method of settlement; the President
simply asks them for authority to
take the other. But this. we may be
sure, the Republican Senators lave
no notion of giving him if they can
find any way of avoiding it It would
be political suicide. It would tie up
millions upon millions of capital, it
would throw thousands upon thou
sands of men out of employment, it
would bring this great and peaceful
Nation to tho verge of terrible war,
not because our difficulty with Canada
can not be peacefully and honorably
settled. but because the desperate and
unpatriotic Republican faction in the
Senate have. in their blindness and
stupidity. not to call it treason out
right, refused to let it be thus settled.
