Another Dose of Mugwump Civil Ser
vice.

A little more than a year ago q
vanracy occurred in the United
States Consulate at Buda Pesth, Il
city of Austro Hungary, and after
Il careful search by the President
with his mugwump parasite gath
erer, he discovered that the proper
man to fiji the place was Mr.
Joseph Black, il cloak manufacture
er, of Cleveland, o.
True, Mr.. Black was a Republican
not in accord with the Democracy
in any degree, but no matter that
did not initiate against his chances
in the least. If Mr.. Black wished
to go, no Democrat need apply, for
under The benign influence of Mug
wump Civil Service, fealty to the
principles of Democracy did not
count for anything, and SO Mr..
Cleveland gathered the obscure
cloak making serpent to his bosom
and warmed him into political life.
The result transpires as any real
sonable mind would anticipate. He
has been giving free expression to
his ultra Republican ideas and has
been recalled.
In Il letter under date of Oct. l6
and published about IA month later
in German Democratic paper, of
New York city, he severely criti-
cizes the tariff policy of the Aus
trian government and says further
"The European manufacturers now
pay an absorbing attention to the
political battle in the United States
and in case the cable should bring
the news that Mr.. Grover Cleve-
land is reelected all industrial re-
gions of Europe will be jubilant."
There can he no doubt but hat the
above, written by an appointee of
the President, for publication in
the public prints Of the ountry,
was in extremely bad taste, but
what more could be expected. Mr..
Black made no promise to refrain
from expressing his political senti-
ments or to change his political
views. He was asked for no such
promise, but was appointed by Mr.
Cleveland, with full and complete
knowledge of his political bias.
Grover Cleveland in thisinstapce
has sown to the wind" and has no
,apse for complaint. i

The proposition to pay bounty

The proposition to pay a bounty
TO sugar-growers is Il perfectly ligi
innate 0utgrowth of the policy of
protection. 1t is only so far an in.
novation that the money comes
directly out of the public treasury.
The bounty paid to the makers of
steel beams comes from the pOckets
of purchasers; but there is no diff
ference in principle. Either form
Of bounty Is "A tax upon one class
of citizens for the benefit Of another
class. The farmers who raise
wheat are as much entitled to II
bounty on their product AZ the
farmers who raise sorghum or sugar
beets; and as they are made to pay

At IL Again.

The advent of II Republican ad-
ministration is foreshadowed by
the resumption of the centraliza.
tion ideas that predominate in the
the Republican party, and which
were illustrated in the carpet-b bag
period at the South, and the dis
astrOus results to those States.
Senator Sherman was ruling
spirit then, and he proposes to Gre
sumo business in the same line"
now. He has devised Il scheme to
rob the States of the right of regu-
lating the election of their repres-
entativeS to Congress. II is aimed
against the South in particular and
comes with II good race rom the
ex-champion of Eliza Pinkston.
With all the election machinery
in the hands of the Presidential
appointees, the South would be re-
duced politically, to the helpless
condition it was in during the
dark days of reconstruction-th
of II conquered province. 1t would
be but Il short step further to IL re-
newal of the carpet-bag regime,
which would have an absolutely
paralyzing effect upon the great
industrial boom progressing and
developing for so many years in
the Southern States. 1t virtually
takes out of the hands of every
State control over the precious in
terest, and renders the executive,
tn - great extent, the arbitrr Of
what Congress viii represent
Apart from the Vindi,ii,r ,,..
shown towards the South in tHis
bill, it is equally an in

Northern States. 1t Iaces the

D this precious scheme it does not b

A Dastardly Outrage.
[Gallipolis Bullitin.l

We little thought that any citi-
zen of Gnlliu County would be 20 un-
pripcipled and vicious as to per-
pcntrate such n diubolicnl outrage
MS the following, the account of
which was related to US by a gentle
man in whose veracity we have
perfect condolences:
One day last week, George w.
Hawkins, a colored resident of Adj
Olson Township, and past three
score years of age, had occasion to
take n grist of grain to the Old
Watson Mill, and while he was
ther" Il prominent Republican of
of the neigbborhood came about.
AS soon as this Republican saw
Hawkins he opened II yolley of
abuse using foul-moutbed Ian
guage-to0 indecent for publica-
tion-and berated the poor old
colored man for being II Democrat
and voting a Democratic ticket.
Hawkins stood his talk as long as
he could, and then asked the man
If here wasany difference between
white man being Il Democrat and |
Il nigger being Democrat. The
man replied that no decent white
man would vote the Democratic
ticket; that the Democrats were
from the slums, and the offscour-
ings of the earth. Not satisfied
with the vile language he used, he
sought to grind it into poor Haw-
kins with force and rushed upon
him with an upliltrd club to strike
the old man upon the head. Haw-
kins warded off the blow, but re-
ceived an ugly wound on his arm
n doing so. Bystanders then in
erfered and the member of the
j. o. p. did no further mischief.
Hawkins has been Democrat
III his life; he is quiet, unoffend-
ng old man, and enjeyes the r.
pert pf all his n"ighhurs, white a.

driven through his evil heart. "and
over him surges forever the noise and
uproar of unreSting London"
1t was not surprising that, lost in the
contemplation of such wholesale butch
cry, De Quincy felt himself rather
"spoiled" for murders in general, and
pronounced them all to be, by contrast.
trivial and commonplace affairs. The
McKeanS, for instance, were in his
eyes two pitiful blackguards, mere
bunglerS, in fact, who suffered Que OF
their intended victims to escape. failed
to give the coup de grace to the second
and were promptly hanged for the kill
ing of the third.
Even Thurteil, who appears to have
inspired such horror in Scott and Lamp,
was to him only vulgar British gam
bier. who, out of spite and avarice,
killed another gambler no whit more
preSentabie than himself. "There was
something falsetto in the style OF Thur
tell,'' complains De Quincy, peevishly,
adding, however, with superb patron
age, that he left "an unfinished design
for the murder of a man with PAIR OF
dumb-bells, which | admired greatly.
1t was mere outline that he never
filled in; but, to my mind, it seemed
every way superior to his chief Wofk."
This ''mere outline" by the by, is des-
to the reader of to-day. The record of
ThurtelPs life and crime gives no hint
of any proposed murder with dumb
bells.
1t was only in the famous Burke and
Hare episode of Edinburg (already re-
lated in the Press that De Quincy rec
ognized that atmosphere of smothered
doubt and horror which gave so dark
background to the Williams murders,
and which are now reproduced with
such terrible emphasis in the crowded,
panic-stricken lanes of Whitechapel.
The victims selected by Burke-the
weary tramps and friendlesS beggars,
the haymakerS out of work, and poor.
abandoned girls, lost to their homes and
families-were easily lured into his den
by the promise of food and shelter.
Once trapped, their doom was sealed.
Those black and hideous walls gave
forth no whisper Of their fate. OF the
midnight terror and struggles, OF the
slow and deliberate Strangulatlon, the
anguish of the dying, the pitilesS pa
tience of the murderer crouched at his
work, the shameful hustling OF the
corpse into filthy bag, and the price OF
blood, the 10 or Is guineas paid by the
surgeons for the body, which they fondly
fancied had been rifled from the grave.
1t was actually deposed by Burke at
his trial that neither he nor Hare had
ever dug up single subject" All
they had sold had been the fruits OF
their own foul murders, and had been
| done to death by the same cruel process
which has now passed into byword OF
reproach. The fame of bequeathing
his own name to his own chosen crime
belongs but to this one man. and, like a
second Cain, he goes branded forever
