up righteous eyes TO heaven, and hatulcntly pro-
claiming that their committee recognizes that
no person in the public service is under any OBJ
legations to contribute TO any political fund.- and
especially that " no person in said service has
any right to use official authority or influence 10
coerce the political action Of any person." Mr..
Larry Godllin, the wel-lnown Democratic boss
of the Second Ward, is reputcd to be dcvoting
his life to calm and devout contemplation OF
tho saintliness Of the Cleveland Civil Service
system We earnestly exhort him to take the
above facts home to his heart of hearts; and
then make broader yet his phylacteries
An astonishing feature Of the German Chan
cellor's official report on the publication OF the
Diaries is the holiness with which he casts as
persion upon both the father and the mother
of the Emperor. lie does this, too, in document
addressed to the Emperor and made by Royal
command. The Emperor evidently wishes his
subjects to understand that he is the grandson
Of his grandfather rather than the son Of Fred
crclx Ill and the obnoxious English Empress,
who persisted in employing an English surgeon.
Has Mr. Cox remedy ?-The NewYork World.
Yes. That was fOur-pound package. 1t
could not have been dropped in q letter-bOX, nor
even through the slot for large packages at the
post Office 1t is a physical mpossibility that
il could have been mailed except by actual deliv-
cry at post office and to a post Office clerk or
official. This package was mailed, together with
scores like it, at Station E. and they were sent
there beyond all shadow Of doubt in huge bags
by the clerks of the Democratic Committee and
handed over to the clerks at Station Il. Don

Henry G.. Pearson knows it; The World knows

il. Now then. for Mr.. Coxs remedy. Let him
60 to Inspector Byrnes and tell the Inspector the
tale he told us, swear out warrant accusing
John Doe of forgery, and leave the rest Ia Byrness
If there was forger, Byrnes will have him as
sure as guns The Inspector will only need to
question Mr. Pearson and the post office clerks
at Station f to learn who brought the packages
there Then he will go to the Democratic head
quarters and ascertain who prepared them for the
mail, who addressed them and who franlled them.
Barnum can tell him. German can tell him.
Brice can tell him. Cox has all the remedy
he needs, and far more than he will dare to use.
Instead of going to Inspector Byrnes he will get
up in Congress and shuttle and dodge and whine
and check the thing out as he is doing in " The
Worll" Remedy Bah!
