Conflicting Views.

When Mr.. Blaine takes snuff, the rerub-
lican press sneezes. The other day, in De-
troit, ne turned aside from the consideration
Of the tariff aud attacked President Cleve-
lands pension record. What he said OF
that occasion was the utterance Of a dema-
gogue. He attempted 70 make it appear
that Mr.. Cleveland is about the worst enemy
| tho ex-soldiers have, when in fact he is about
| their best friend, as the report of the pen
sion bureau will show. He made no men
ton of the fact that the President has signed
more pension bills than any of his prede-
cessors, but he made pretense of being
highly indignant in speaking of the pension
bills which it became the duty of the Prss-
dent to veto. In short, he perverted one side
of the record and held back the other.
1t seems to make no difference to the re.
publican organs, however. whether Mr..
Blaine is right or wrong. When he speaks
they follow him blindly. The Philadelphia
Press, which for some time has remained
silent on the pension question, said, a few
days after Mr.. Blaine's speech: "IJ speaks
volumes for the supreme assurance of the
President that he has in his brief term of
office used the reserve power of the veto
four times as often as all of his predecessors
together ventured to do. OF the 300 bills
vetoed by the President 206 are vetoes of
pension bills of "a, S. and S12 Il month to
| needy and deserving soldiers of the union.
Ex-soldiers of whatever politics are not
likely to overlook fact whicrtouches them
so nearly as this" Possibly the previous
silence of the Press on this question is ex-
planned by the fact that, in February, 1886,
it had the following to say concerning Mr..
Cleveland's pension vetoes: 1.-The lavishness
and recklessness with which congress votes
pensions are not approved by the country
at large, and this feeling finds exprei sion in
the very general approval Of the Presidents
veto of the dependent pension bill Even
if congress is not convinced by the argu-
ments of the President. it can hardly fail to
| be influenced by the evidence that the coun-
try is with him in reprobating the present
tendency of congress to pension extrava-
gance."
Voters who want the truth may be
puzzled to decide which one of these con-
flicting statements to accept. Let them re-
member that there was no presidential
campaign on hand when the Press com
mende1 Mr.. Cleveland's pension record and
that, therefore, that journal was better
prepared then to speak conscientiously and
to view the pension question dispassionately.
Let them also examine the record itself.
They will find that Mr.. Cleveland was
clearly right in his pension vetoes, and that
he is the real and not the pretended friend
| OF the veterans

TOO Confining a Life.
From The Philadelphia Record.


''This bein' married don't suit me, nohow.
It's too confinin'. Give me divorce aud say no
more about it," said Stephen Phifer, as he
walked into the Office of Justice R. NJ Wright
at Medford, N. J. Phifer is a well known resi-
dent of the "Hill," and the squire had been
called upon only two weeks before to marry
him He looked disconsolate when he pre-
sented himself TO the justice, and all over his
face was weeks growth Of sandy beard AS
he sank heavily into the nearest chair, he
had the appearance of being thoroughly used
up.
WELL" said the squire, whats the matter?"
Mr.. Phifer heaved sigh and looked more
disconsolate than ever. Squire" said he
cant you take my name off that paper!'
''You don't mean the marriage certificate, do
you, StephenY" asked the squire, quickly.
That's it, exactly, said the visitor with
dubious shake OF his head. II want it taken off
or rubbed out"
The squire, with a shake OF his head, said
I'm sorry, but l can't do that; l haven't the
power"
Don't say that, squire" said Phifer, you
kin do it easy II you want to, and 1t would take
a good deal off my mind. I'm willin' to give
bail that won't get married no more"
BUT the justice was unable to assist him. and
he left determined to have the nuptial knot
severed at all hazards.

attack.
Helping Him Out of His Dilemma
Frona the Pfttsbnrq Dtspatch

An unkind story, even If true. was told me
while was in England, of a young lady who
married a suffering man.
The young man was undoubtedly a sufferer
of the most positive order, for have heard him
90 through paroxysms to get out a simple
Coed morning. The lady whom he subse-
quently married was of an eminently practical
turn of mind. No maiden modcsty or bashful-
ness cloyed her methods. She spoke to the
point and never left a thought unexpressed il
She deemed it pertinent. After he had called
upor her some three or four times, she decided
that it was about time for her to know his in
tentons. So the next time he called. after they
had seated themselves as usual on the sofa, she
very much fiattered by the interest you have
taken in me, and the flowers you have just
given me are very pretty, but feel that
should be not doing my duty if | delayed any
longer asking You what your intentions ara /;
whittier do these attentions and presents lead?''
Young Mr.. Smith rose to his feet and blush
rose to his cheek. He essayed to speak For
moment his lips and tongue seemed paralyzed
Then he managed to get out M-M-M-MM-y
d-d-d-d-d-n-but he could get no further. The
might have stood for any number of words,
but Miss Smith, justitaby, perhaps, inter
preted it to stand for darling, and the youths
acute embarrassment to a modest confusion in
making formal proposal.
Anyway she took Mr.. Smith by the hand,
and, looking into his eyes, exclaimed: Mr.
understand what you wish TO say You may
speak to papa and if he approves, so do l."
They were married few months later, but
Mr.. Smith has never explained satisfactorily to
his friends whether he suffered into matrimony
of his own free will or against 10.

Some months ago the New York press
commented on the absence Of high church
spires in this country, compared with those
elsewhere. The highest spire in the United
States has just been completed. 1t belongs
to st. Patrick's cathedral in New York,
and reaches 1872 feet up into the air. The
church cost 100000. and the steeple cost

Several months ago a man living in
Charleston, ILL.,, was lynched for a crime he
was supposed to have committed. Now the
fact has been clearly established that he
did not commit the crime, and ten well
known citizens of the town, who took part
in the lynching, have been indicted for
murder by the grand jury. 1t would have
been great deal better if those citizens had
allowed the law to take its course Almost
invariably, it is better in such cases to rely
upon the law.

The election of Mr.. James L. Wolcott to
succeed Eli K. Salisbury as United States
senator from Delaware is not assured, but
it is said that enough is known to warrant
the statement that Senator Salisbury will
not be reelected. Having become con-
WINGED that he cannot, the senator, it is
stated, is trying to find some man who,
with the Salisbury votes and his own infiu-
ence, can defeat Wolcott. The contest is
becoming interesting.

The Monticello Road.

The Townsville and Monticello railroad
was opened for business ON Monday, an &C
count of which was published in our dis
patches yesterday. This road connects
Monticello and rich and prosperous section
Of Florida with the railroad system of the
entire country. 1t will help Savannah's
trade, because Savannah is the natural mar
ket for all the territory tributary to this
new artery of commerce.
Monticello had been trying for thirty
years to get direct railroad communication
with Savannah, and had it not been for the
liberality of the Savannah, Florida and
Western railway she would be trying yet.
The first committee that was appointed to
seek a conference with Col Haines, the
general manager of that railway,
met with very cordial reception. 1t
was told that if Monticello would
furnish the roadbed, to either Quitmau or
Dixie, the Savannah, Florida and Western
would furnish the rails, put them down,
equip the road with rolling stock and run
ii. 1t was thought that the roadbed could
be constructed fer about 81, 800 per mile.
An investigation showed, however, that
Qultman was not disposed to aid the enter
prise for the reason that shs was looking
for railroad connection in another direc-
ton, and Monticello was not flvorably
di posed toward the Dixie connection.
The committee informed Col. Haines of
its failure to get sufficient assistance to con-
struct the roadbed to Quitman, and sug-
gested that tine only chance for Monticello
to get direct rorthern railroad connection
was by means of road to Townsville
Col. Haines again considered Monticello's
needs, and finally proposed that if that
town would build the roadbsd and bridges,
and provide the crOs'ties, Of "A line to Thomas
vile, the Savannah, Florida and Western
would construct road to that point,
and equ,p and operate it. This offer was
accepted by Monticello, and about $4,000
IN al was subscribed A survey was
ordered, aud it appeared that Monticello
would have to raise $4,000 to keep
her part Of the contract This, it
became evident, she coajd not do.
Her citi2eJs were in despair, and
again Col. Haines was appealed 10, and sue
cessfully. lie promised t,... tl'e Savannah,

Joseph jefferson, the veteran comedian,
announces that he is going to cast his first
presidential vote this year, and that it will
be for Cleveland and Thurman. He is now
5S years old. He says: mir. Cleveland has
given the American people such safe and
conservative administration that it should
win Tor him the respect of every thinking
man in the country" Mr.. Jefferson's three
sons, who, like their father, have never
voted in presidential election, will vote
also for Mr.. Cleveland. These four demo-

Mayor Hewitt's declaration that he doesn't
like Mr.. Cleveland is causing good many
republican organs to rejoice. They will
feel sad, however. when they learn that the
mayor likes Mr.. Cleveland's administration
very much, and is going to vote for his re-
election. There are a large number of repub-

who don't admire his public record. Are

Lend a Helping Hand.

The members of the press Of this city yes
terday appointed committee to solicit con-
tributious from the newspaper men of the
country to fund which it is proposed to
raise for the widow and children of Edwin
Martin, the late editor of the jacksonville
Times Union. lie was victim of
the epidemic in that city. He re-
manned at his post of duty, although
urged TO leave, because 1T was not believed
that he could battle successfully with the
disease if he should be attacked by it, on &C.
count Of chronic trouble from which he
had suffered long time. Having placed
his wife and children in a safe retreat he
determined TO remain in the infected city,
and not only discharge his editorial duties,
but to assist in alleviating the sufferings of
others. He did his duty faithfully, and en-
deared himself to many of the afflicted by
kind offices in their behalf.
His wife and children are without pro-
vision for their support. Is not this case
in which the newspaper men Of the country
will feel it privilege to lend a helping
handl We believe it is, and that they will
show by their contributions that they
appreciate the courage and high sense Of
duty which Edwin Martin displayed.
The Central Labor Union Of New York
has issued a ringing protest against trusts.
The union is composed Of democrats, or
