to me that 1t wonld be we'll if our
general pension laws should be
revised with a view of meeting
every meritorious case that can
arise. Our experience and knowl

"In the absence of such re-

The President also returned
without his approval, the Senate
bill to grant a pension to j. B.
Morton, of Nebraska, as depend
ent father of Calvin Morton. The
father CLAIMED that his son was
killed in the battle with the In
dians in the Custer massacre, in
1876. The President in his mess

"His name does not appear in
any record OF the soldiers engag-
ed in that battle. Considering

THEN AND NOW.

In 1882 tho Republicans had con.
troll. of both branches of Congress,
and appointed a tariff commission tc
overhaul the duties in the interest
of reduction and retrench hment. II
was protec,ionist committee save
one member, and largely Repub-
lican committee. The commission
finally presented n tariff schedule
which, the preamble of their report
asserted, made "an average reduc-
ton of 20 per cent. and it was the
opinion of the commission that the
reduction will reach % per cent" I"
Tho reduction in many cases from
40 to so per cent.
In 1883 this party IN convention
assembled, at Chicago, thus plank
ed the tariff business in the party
platform, the tariff of 1888 being
the same as that of 1882: eve fa-
vor the entire repeal of the internal
revenue system" Which means that
It is now more than ever a party of
reaction. and that it is moro than
ever bossod by capital and monopo-
ly.

Although there will probably
be no formal opening of the Ohio
campaign on the part of the Dem
ocrats before the last of August,
there is nothing TO prevent Dem
ocrats from forming clubs and
arranging in every section of the
state for an efficient working or.
ganizauon. Indications 90 to
show that Ohio may well be
classed among the doubtful
states. In 1876, when the Re
pubiicans had a negative man
like Harrison on their ticket for
president, the Democrats came
within a thousand votes of carry
ing the State for Samuel j. Til
den. The outlook for Democrat.
ic success is brighter than it was
in 1876 or 1884, and all that is
necessary TO win a victory is de-
termination and organlzation.-

Cheap Chinese Labor Harrison

We call the attention of our
readers generally and working
men especially, TO the article on
our first page from the New York
Star, and headed "Harrlson's
Friends" Read this article care
fully. 1t shows that Harrison's
Chinese record is no political
myth, but an actual living real
Ivy. 1t is one of the most pracli-
cal features that ever entered in
to any campaign. Harrison is
the friend and champion of Chi
nese cheap labor, and thus nec-
essarily the enemy of American
labor. The Chinese of this coun-
try recognize this fact. and, as a
very natural consequence, are
enthusiastically ratifying the
nomination of Harrison, The
Chinaman's friend. This is the
kind of a man the Republicans
have nominated for President
the Chinaman's friend. and the
advocate of cheap Chinese labor.

Death from a Gu, Bite.

Columbia Is. C) Special Globe Democrat.
j. r. Bolch, young white man, %
years of age, oyerseer Of r. II. Corn
wells plantation in Fairfield county.
died yesterday morning o. hydropho.
bia,. caused by the bite of a cat. One
day last fall, while passing along the
road. he saw beautiful black eat.
Thinking it would be nice present for
his young sister, both spoke to and ap-
preached the animal. 1t permitted him
to handle it without Offering any re-
sistance, but Immediately after being
lifted from the ground it became furi-
Gus, and scratched and bit him On the
right hand. Bolch killed the cot, and
went on his way, thinking no more of
the matter, with the exception of q very
sore hand for about week.
Bolch experienced no i'll effects from
the bite and did not think of hydropho-
bia in connection with the matter until
Thursday Of last week, when he was
suddenly taken i'll, experiencing great
difficulty in breathing. 4 physician
was summoned, but by the time he ar
rived Bolch was unable to swallow any
thing. When glass of water was
handed him he went into commissions.
Convulsion followed ronvulsion and the
physicians skill failed to afford him
any relief. During the intervals be-
tween the commissions the unfortunate
young man was perfectly rational, and
often piteously begged his friends to
kill him and end his sufferings. His
paroxysDs were so violent that it Wa S
necessary to keep him tied hand and
foot. He fingered in great agony fer q
week, until Friday morning last, when
he died.

The Lynch LRsy In Kansas:

The Eync,, LRyy In Kansas:
Syracuse Heraid.l
The frequent iynchlngs In Kansas
are attributed TO a curious provision
of tho State law, whereby murder
ers escape the moose. The statute
provides that persons convicted of
murder in the first degree shall re-
main IN the Penitentlary one year,
and after that they may be hanged
whenever the Governor signs war
rant. No Governor has ever signed
such a; warrant, and as q resnlt there
are: fifty four murdercrs under the
sentence of death IN the State. In
dignant communities have therefore
arisen and taken the law into their
own hands. fhe course of wisdom
for the State would be either to abol
lsh the death penalty or distinctly
to place its enforcement with the
Judiciary, the Governor simply to
have the usual power Of exercising
executive clemency.
