of eating the meat of diseased hogs
grown in that country; and from the
u. S. Consul at Marseilles, France,
stating that highly contagious dis
ease prevails among the swine of
that country. In a message accom-
panied these reports the President
doubts whether our present laws are
sufficient, and recommends the pas
sage of law prohibiting the i'm
portation of hogs from either of the
countries named.
The International Council Of
Women has been the principal at
traction here this week. The only
feature Of it which has caused my
adverse criticism so far, was sen
tence in the opening speech deliver
cd by Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton.
Here it is, you can judge for your
self whether a rebuke was merited:
FIf our Saxon fathers do not give
women the rights they demand they
will strike hands with the labor
unions, anarchists and socialists,
and there will be reenacted in this
country the bloody scenes of the
French Revolution"
Postmaster General Dickinson has
virtually acknowledged 10y the ap-
pointment Of a committee to hives
tigate the inefficient mail service at.
the Chicago postofice, that such in
efficiency exists.
The Senate Committee on Terri
tories has reported resolution de-
claring against the admittance of
Utah as state until polygamy isl
entirely abolished and the civil
affairs of the Territory are taken
from the control of the priesthood
of the Mormon Church.
Mr.. VIM. Dudley Foulke, of Rich.
mond, Indiana, President of the
Indiana civil-service reform associ-
alton made an address before the
Senate Civil Service Investigating
Committee Wednesday, which gives
the Indiana democracy the distinc-
ton of being more open in their
violation of law than those of any
other state. The address Of Mr..
Foulke, who is not republican, was
based upon an impartial investiga
ton made by the association which
he represented, and was supported
by number Of aflidavits. He says
the postofices throughout the entire
state are In a demoralized condition,
and that removals Of efficient men
who are republicans and the APP
pointment Of inefficient men who
are democrats, are open; Postmaster
Jones, of indianapolis, having pub
licly stated that none but democrats
would be appointed, regardless of
civil service examinations. Mr..
Foulke says that he laid all these
facts before Cleveland, not beliey-
ing that he would allow the abuses
to continue if he were personally
acquainted with them. Cleveland
knew all aoout it, and apparently
approved of the action of his party
strikers. He told Mr.. Foulke that
he regretted that his association had
made this investigation Mr.. Foulke
invited the committee to visit lndi-
ana, and pledged his association to
substantiate every statement which
ne had made, with legal evidence.
If Cleveland, who poses before the
country as the great civil service re-
former, were not protected with the
hide of an elephant, this address
would have made him squirm.

SEN. INGALLS,, of Kansas, knows
quite enough TO know how TO defend
himself from all his Democratic and
ex-rebel asssilants. In a letter since
his great speech, giving an explana-
ton where none was really needed
he said:
every man of intelligence knows
that my illusions to Hancock and
Mcclellan were not az soldiers, but
AZ Democratic candidates for the
Presidency. As such, they were al
lies of the Confederacy, as Grover
Cleveland is, and as every Democrat
must be who aspires to that office,
because he must be elected by the
1853 votes of the solid South, whic h
is as much an aggressive and poten-
tial force in our politics as it was in
1860"
1t is true, as he says, that the Re
publicans must wage the coming
campaign not on the tariff alone, but
on the platform Of equal and exact
Justice to all under the law.

The HOARD BooM.-The most
significant political boom Of this
prolific boom period, is the boom Of
w. d. Hoard for governor. 1t is
significant because Of the admitted
merit Of the man doomed. No Re
publican will dispute the qualifca-
tions Of Mr.. Hoard for the Office of
governor, or for any other state
office, and even the opposition admit
that he would be formidable can
didate. He is not appropriately
compared to Abraham Lincoln.
Like Lincoln, Hoard has six feet of
stature, a strong pbysique Of which
a prominent nose is 3 conspicuous
feature; like Lincoln he has a heart
AMI brain proportionate to bis body,
and remarkably like Lincoln he has
a faculty of illustrating great
thoughts and principles by pleasing
stories inimitably told.
1t is suspicioned by some that the
boom for Hoard was designed main
ly to affect the interests of other
candidates, and not seriously in
tended by it's originators to benefit
Hoard. Whatever may be the mo-
tive of others, no one who knows
Mr.. Hoard will believe that he
would be a party to anything calcu-
lated to deceive the people. Some
Of his best friends and admirers
doubt if he would accept the nom
ination if rendered him, and he
himself makes no sign of desiring
it. Hoard as candidate would
naturally most conflict with the in
terssts of McFetridge, and the i'm
portanoe Of diverting the lattsr's
following in the central and south.
ern portions of the state is recog-
nized by the friends Of Taylor and
Ginty, between whom the northern
portion of the state is expected to
be divided.

reputation as reformer that Mr..
Cleveland acquired by his broken

he pretended to espouse, because
doubtless men viii say thatif Cleye-
