THE Boston Herald is of the opinion
that, "aside from an intense partisan
ship, which renders him suspicious of
any good being found in a Democrat"
President Harrison is favorable tt the
civil-service reform principle. 1t is pre-
cisely this suspicion that prevents a
large number of Republicans from be-
coming enthusiastic supporters of the
reform. They would like to believe that
Democrats are competent and honest,
and to be trusted in the conduct of pub
lie affairs, but the facts are so vio-
lently opposed to this belief that
they find practical adherence to
the principle very difficult. If
the officials of the late administration
had made a better showing in the mat
ter of ability it would be easier to give
them a larger share of responsibility
now; but since all, from President to
fourth-class ~postmasters, made such a
mess of public business, prejudice is
hard to overcome. The Herald's party
has itself to blame for the existence of
the suspicion mentioned.

The Grand Army acted very wisely in

a great hue and cry is being made about the

commissioner Tanner is certainly not dis

honest and means TO do right. His unwise
utterances have given rise to the belief that
unwarranted things may be dom by him,

efforts to grant pensions or increase those

gentleman a deal of good, while it will also
correct the misapprehension that he has
been guilty of conniving at a robbery of the

that the Commissioner of Pensions is not a
man of judicial temperament, and it is nec-
essary that the department should be con-

Women and Their Real Rights.

significant latter ~clause!): Husbands, owe

Fathers, provoke not your children to an

true rights of women will be achieved.
We nave much from pulpit or
press to impress upon us the duties of
wives and children: for it is men who
preach and edit; but all duty is of it's own
nature reciprocal. and the other side of
these family obligations is just as stringent
as that commonly preached and written
about. Looking over the social. the con-
jugal, the parental status of the sexes in
this age of progress, it is sad to see that the
true rights of women are SO frequently ig-
nored and set aside. 1t is true we owe the
delay of our restoration TO these God-given
privileges greatly to those '..freedom-shriek-

neglected and their homes forsaken TO rant

who demand suffrage for themselves when

THE Democratic plan of campaign in
the city election is plainly foreshad-
owed. 1t is to consist of Coyism and
Reform. The idea evidently is that
these two elements Will sweep the field,
"Jack Sprat he ate no fat, his wife she
ate no lean, and so betwixt them both
they licked the platter Clean" The
verse is not very elegant, but it fits.
Coyism is depended upon to catch the
toughs, and Reform to catch the respect
able element. Thus the campaign will
be run on distinct but parallel lines.
Publicly Reform will frown ,ron Coy
ism, but priv ately the ex-convict will
be patted on the back and encouraged
to do his utmost. Reform will figure
most conspicuously, but Coyism will be
most active. One will appear on dress
parade while the other is working in the
trenches. After the election, if the
grand old party succeeds, Reform will
drop out of sight and Coyism will as
sumo entire control. 1t is a very SYM
metrical plan.

d. L. MOODY is preparing to open an
evangelistic training school, in Chicago, to
continue throughout the year. The plan,
as outlined in the prospectus. is similar in
character to that Of the summer school,
which he has so successfully conducted at
Mortified. Mass, for several successive
seasons. The main purpose is to give the
best practical instruction in the English
Bible, and in all that has to do with mission
work of every kind. Colleges and theologi-
cal schools already established do not
wholly meet the want. Chicago is chosen
for the location of the school because
it is central. and easily reached
by evangelists. lay preachers, Sun
day-school teachers and others
desiring instruction. and for the further
reason, as Mr.. Moody sagaciOusly observes,
tina the city and neighborhood offer a
grand field for actual work among the
masses of the people. Both women and
men are admitted, and the prospects are
thai the school will open with a large. at
tendance. Students may join the classes
without charge, except for board. and the
best instructors who tan be had III this
country or over the sea are promised. APP

1T is sheer idiocy for the latest and

the News, to intimate that the little

to effect his re-entrance into local poll

would have been released from prison

politics." a very careful inquiry will fail
to discover at just what particular
period Mr.. Coy made his exit from the
field. He was a Democratic member Of
the City Council during the entire period
of his incarceration, and was as much q
director of democratic movements from
his cell at Michigan City as he was when

THE Washington Post is urging the
removal of General Grants body from
Riverside to Arlington, and has adj
dressed letters to the Governors of all
the States, and other distinguished men,
asking their opinion on the subject. Six
teen Governors have signified their ap-
proval of the plan, and ali communica-
tons, from whatever source, favor the
removal. Such formal expressions are
hardly worth while, since there can be
little doubt that the general sentiment
of the country is now, as it was at the
time of Grants death, in favor of his
burial at the national capital. The re-
moval, however, will not be made
against the wishes of Mrs. Grant, and
should not be made, in any event, until

MET AFTER TWENTY-FIVE YEARS.
An Incident ofthe War Recalled at the Second
Wisconsin Cavalry Reunion.

W1bcOuSiu OdS8uy hcuulOus
Milwaukee Sentinel.
A romantic episode of the closing scenes
of the war was revived at q reunion of the
Second Wisconsin Cavalry. The Second
Cavalry was attached to Clusters command
on Red river. The Second had a Colonel
whom they warmly hated, and O request to
resign addressed to him was prepared and
generally signed. The only man who had
the nerve to present it was Len Lancaster,
of Company l., who marched boldly to the
Colonies quarters and gave him the docu-
ment. The result was a c0urt-martial, n
Lancaster was sentenced by General Gus
ter to be shot. Lancaster and an Illinois
deserter, one Wilson, also under sentence,
were hauled to the place of execution,
where a "three-hollow" square of $1,000
cavalry had been formed. The two vic
pinioned and the caps were drawno over
their eyes. The officer in charge of the fir
ing party gave the commands, Ready"
'Aimw and "Fire!" The carbines came up,
the hammers clicked, the SQUAD aimed,
and. a second before the volley was dis
charged, the officer in command seized Lam
caster and jerked him out of range. while
Wilson. the deserter, fell pierced with three
balls. Custer had reprieved Lancaster at
the last moment and sentenced him to three
years at the Dry Tortugas. Lancaster was
handed over to Lieutenant Peck. by him
taken to New Orleans and sent to the Dry
and then pardOned. Lancaster Is 10Y a ST.
Paul contractor. Peck is a Nebraskan.
The two men met at the reunion for the
first time since the incident in 1866, and
their mutual greeting was such as only old
soldiers know.

THE Cincinnati pirates did not buy the

bought the Indianapolis Journal.-Senti-

This refers to the school-book law.
We copy it in order that decent people,
who only know of the Sentinel by hear
say, may see the style of argument it
uses. Papers and persons who make
such charges can always be set down as
corrupt. They attribute to others the
motives by which they are governed
themselves. The person who wrote
this paragraph is probably a rascal. The
paper that printed it is VIGOROUSLY venal.
AS for the Republican press of In

itself about their course. They a do
as they please. AS a plain matter of
fact a majority of the Republican
papers of the State are in entire
harmony with the Journal in its OPP
position to the BecktOld-W Williams
gouge. Time will fully justify
the position of this paper in regard to
the school book law, which, take it for
all in all, is one of the most ill-cOnsid-
cred, vicious, meddlesome and injurious
measures ever enacted in the State.
From beginning to end it is a fraud on
the people and the schools, a violation
of contracts, of popular rights, of local

THERE is a strong saving element of
horse sense about General Sherman that
prevents him from losing his head or
temper when he ought not to. An at
tempt has been made to magnify into an
incident of Importance the fact that he
was elected or excluded from a car at
Milwaukee by members of the G. A. R.
who claimed to control it. The Gen.
erals brother has talked rather freely
about it, but the General himself poo
poOhs it. He says:
1t amounted to nothing. / got into the
wrong car with Senator Henderson and
another gentleman, having been told that
1t was my car. After we had got settled
the people who had chartered the car came

talk, and my brother resented the way in
which the people who had a right to the
car put forward their claim. l took pos
session of what didn't belong to me. and
gave 1t up when / saw my mistake. There
was nothing to it.
Of course there was not. 1t is easy to
see how the thing might have happened
in the confusion of the moment, and
how a noisy crowd might have insisted
on their rights without knowing who
the u~nintentional trespassers were. "Old

not an American living who would offer
him a slight knowingly. He can have

OUR free-trade organs have very little
to say about the great labor strike in
London, 1t is a little unfortunate for
them that the greatest strike of this dec
ade, if not of modern times, should
have come just as they were having so
much to say about the universal pros
perity and contentment in England
under free trade. Perhaps after the
free-traders have got their second wind
they will be able to prove by some
hocus-pocus of argument that ever the
London strike is caused by protection.
It is worth while, by the way, to note
how this strike began and what for. 1t
began with the dock laborers, or, as the
same class of workmen are called in
New York, the 'longshOremen. The
London dock labOrers have been receiv-
ing 10 cents an hour, and they struck for
2 cents more, or 10 cents an hour. The
conditions of their occupation are such
that about 60 per cent. of them are not
employed more than half the time.
Under no circumstances, therefore, could
their earnings exceed 81 a day, and much
of the time they fell considerably below
that. Now, in New York, the l~ongshore-
men get 80 cents an hour for regular
work, and go cents an hour for night and
Sunday work. Some of the steamer
lines pay dock hands So per week, and
25 cents per hour overwork. Yet the
London dock men struck for 10 cents an
nour, and nearly all the labor unions in
the great metropolis are supporting
them. If they get what they are strik-
ing for their wages will still be consid-
erably less than half what the same
class of workers get in New York. Yet
free trade would reduce the wages of
the New York '1~ongshoremen to the level
of the London dock laborer, as it would
the wages of all other American labor
ers, to those paid abroad. For, as Prof.
Wilson says, 'free trade between nations
will, sooner or later. bring the price of
labor-wages-tO the same level the
world over, and that level will be the
lowest figure to which tyranny and mis-
government can reduce the laborers any
where"
