The Presidents Insincsritv.

When Gen. Harrison made his notorious
speech in the United States Senate, de-
nouncing Mr. Cleveland for turning Mrs.
De Ia Hunt out Of a fourth-class postofice
IN Indiana, he put himself on record as ia
vorirg the retention in Office Of women who
were found to be reasonably acceptable to
the public as office-holders, aud who needed
the Offices. When he had an opportunity TO
reappoint Mrs. DE la Hunt. and not only
failed to do so, but appointed the
chairman Of a county republican com
| mittee, whose chief recommendation
was that be worked hard for the success of
the republican national ticket, he virtually
| abandoned that position, and showed that
he was inconsistent. A few weeks later he
had chance 10 reappoint woman to the
Huntsville, Ala, postoflice. This woman,
Mrs. Clay, needed the Office, and although
her husband, a paralytic, was democrat.
she was Endorsed by many republicans.
There were no charges against her, but she
was not reappointed. The office Is now held
by republican worker.
Still another woman has Just been re-
moved from a fourth-class postoffice, and a
republican worker has just been appointed
IN her stead. Miss Mooney, the daughter
OF republican, was made postmaster at
Masleth, n. Y, a suburb of Brooklyn, by
MIR. Cleveland. She performed her duties
satisfactorily, and majority of both the
democrats and the republicans of the town
wanted her re-appointed. Notwithstanding
there was not n word of complaint AZ INST
her, and she was dependent upon the posi-
ton for her support few republican poll
ticians Of the place succeeded in having her
removed, and having a machine politician
appointed
Perhaps the President will say, in the
cases of Mrs. Clay and Miss Mooney, as he
did in that of Mrs De la Hunt, that they
were appointed by Mr. Clarkson, and that
he knew nothing of the appointments until
1t was too late to interfere. 1t is true that
in each instance the office was fourth class,
but has the President reflected that he held
Mr.. Cleveland responsible for the failure Of
Mrs De la Hunt to be re-appointed to a
Nourth-class office few years ago. Ii Mr..
Cleveland was responsible then, why is not
President Harrison responsible now? He
certainly could have had these women re-
appointed, and the fact that they were not
IS sufficient evidence that he was not sincere
In the position he took in the speech defend
ing Mrs De la Hunt

A Man of Honor
One Of Don Piatrs Stories.

VIC " LON ftQtt STORES.
Don Platt is great story teller
heard yesterday this tale Of his ex-
pSrlence as a lawyer in a country town
Oh ONO; He had gone down TO the Jail
one Jay, hoping to get stray case. A prisoner
nad Just been brought in who asked Piatt 10 I'M
uer cake MS defense. Got any money! asked
Jhe lawyer. Not a cent" was the reply but
l am innocent. and man Of honor, and il you
set me on you will not regret il. - His asSer-
Ion thaJ he was "a man of honor was repeated
over ana over again. PiatJ asked what the
prisoner @aS charged with and found it was
arson. There had recently been erected on the
opposite side OF the street from Patt's Office a
cHurch FOR colored people, from which
nightly and three or four times a
week during the day, the most inces-
sahI noises Of these noisy worshipers were sent
I D ihuch TO his annoyance and disturbance.
iiatL laughingy SAID to the man. IN clear you
II you born down that Niger church." Oh. but
can 10 that, Mr.. Piatt, was the reply. Il am
not man or That kind, and | am Innocent of
thls charge. But, sir, am man Of honor, and
you VIII De well repaid, sir if you defend me
me result OF the fellows pleading was that
Fiatt undertook the case and made the plea of
lbs youthful career as a lawyer. So well did
ne pIedu MS case That the fellow was not only
cleared, but purse of $40 was made up IN the
courtroom, out of which the man walked as a
perfect hero That night, as Piatt relates it,
the darby church was destroyed by fire and
three days later he received a letter from his
late client, dated St. Louis inquiring if the
colonel was now satisfied that he was "a man
of honor
