POOR. FALLEN TANNER.

pudiates Harrlsou's scapcsoat'
When Caesar lay dead under the
daggers of Brutus, Casca, Casslus and
the rest, Mark Antony proclaimed
that there was none SO poor astto do
him reverence, though yesterday the
word of Cesar might have stood
against the world. The Roman SEN
ators are like the Roman populace.
History repeats itself. Officially

envious Window made! Through this
the well-beloved B. Harrison stabbed
and as he plucked his cursed steel
away look how the blood of Tanner
followed him. as rushing out OF doors
to be resolved if Harrison so unkindly
knocked or no Judge. Dye Grand
Army mon, who dearly loved
him): mark how the blood OF Tanner
followed him. We'll, Tanner is as
dead as Julius Caesar himself.
And here comes Henderson, Senator
from Nebraska, the recipient OF Ian
ner's favor, the Senator rerated with
arrears and rejoicing il the discrlm-
mating attention bestowed upon MS
case by the legless but whole-hearted
if wrong-headed Commissioner, sur
rendering his certifcate-the certifi-
cate which he accepted with thanks.
Truly, poor Tanner is stretched
upon the bier, and not only are there
none so poor as to do him reverence,
but there are actually those who
trample in supposed self-preservation
on his corpse, and Henderson, OF Ne
braska, is one of them. - Chicago

sock the Republican Party.
president Eliot is at home at last
is the way the Chicago Tribune an
nounces the conversion of Harvard's
scholarly president to the Democratic
faith. The only wonder is that a man
of his intelligence and practical ideas
had not found his way home long ago.
The Democratic party is the only home
for those who believe as President
Eliot believes, that 1.-The principle OF
protection is false and opposed to the
possible development of the country"
The fact that President Eliot. who has
all along been indoctrinated with this
faith, could have so long remained in
the Republican party is an illustration
of how firm hold party ties and asso-
Citations retain upon men and warp
their conduct in opposition to their
convictions. The fact that he has at
length burst the bonds of party preju-
dice, and has openly aligned himself
with the Democratic party. is an evil
dence that the thinking meu of the
age recognize the Importance of the
tariff question, and deem it to be the
duty of all citizens to place themselves
in position where they can accomplish
the most in support of the principles
they advocate. The Democratic party
is the home of the taritf-reformer, and
it is matter of surprise that the Chi
cago Tribune and some other news
papers we could mention, who sup
ported Judge Gresham for the Presi
dency because of his liberal views
have not followed the example of Pres
ident Eliot. If they have honest con
victions, the time will come when they
will break into the Democratic party
in self defense. st. Paul Globe.

General Raum's Appointment.

While the appointment of Mr.. Raum
is altogether out OF the line of re-
form, the country has right to ex-
pect, and does expect, the Secretary
of the Interior to prevent the PEN
sion Bureau from being used as a
means of emptying the treasury for
partisan purposes. 1t is in Mr..
Raum's favor that he has not been
blatantly identified with the most
vociferous element of the G. A. R.,
but he is not the man to stand on
principle or to construe the law
scrupulously against his own views of
partisan expediency. He is capable
of doing more mischief than Tanner
because he is much ADLER man, but

public sentiment against the surplus

PREVALENCE OF TANNERlSM.

Tho Corporal Has Been Removed, but
His Principles Still Prevail
The same trafficking and huck-
storing for Office which compelled
President Harrison to appoint Tan
ner continue to disgrace the Adj
ministration in the eyes of those who
look to the realization of a prin-
ciple as the great object of govern
mont. From the very inception of the
new Administration to the present the
division of the spells seems to have
been the principal task OF the Presi-
dent and his Cabinet. Were the world
to Judge the American people by the
action OF this Administration half OF
the country would have to be credited
with citizens who have neither ability
nor character or honesty to admin
lister any office. This half according
to tho practice introduced by President
Harrison's Administration, who hap
pencd to cast u handful of votes less
than their opponents. The unseemly
haste with which the Government
goes to relieve efficient officials be-
cause they are Democrats. and put in
their places men of the Tanner tribe
who have no other merit than being
Republicans, is degrading to the
whole system of Government. Nor
was in the division of offices higher
rule observed than reward or equiva-
lent for political services rendered.
Never were so many newspapers sub
eidized as now in the shape of patron
ago to editors, nor was nepotism ever
pructised to such an extent. Does the
function OF government really cul-
inmate in the appropriation of spells?
from The practice of the present Ad-
ministration it would seem so, and
every patriot would have cause to
grieve at the decline of our public life
if it were not for the faith in the good
sense, the rectitude and justice of the
people, by which the money-changers
will be driven out OF the temple, and
principle be called on the throne where
Tannerism now sits.-Habraw Stand

Through sunny lanes our way we wendell,
Repeating now and then rhyme
Oflovers' joys and sorrows blended,
How very light Of heart were we,

There was no bliss like unto oursl
