Tue PHILADELPHIA Record, one OF Mr
Cleveand's staunchest defenders, Gays:
"Tbe most announcement legacy left by
the previous to the present administration
is the army of bold over republicans, spugly
epsconced 10 fat berths where they had been
allowed TO remain undistnrbed."
Y es, and the fact that Mr.. Cleveland did
allow these republicans to retain their fat
berths, while many true and working dem
ocrats who wanted them, and who could
have filed them just as efficiently, we're
told that party service could not be reward
ed with office, is the chief reason why Mr..
Cleveland was not reelected. Sad. but
human nature is low and mean.

spection of that opinion will show that it
was case where the best lawyers might
well have differed. There is nothing in the
opinion or the circumstances of the case
which lusti6es the unfavorable criticisms
made. While the I'oSt will not at any time
shrink in discharging its duties, criticising
to the fullest extent dereliction of duty, at
the same time it must enter protest
against indiscriminate and inconsiderate
criticisms of the actions and motives of a
tribunal composed, like our Supreme Court,
of men whose records as citizens and law
yers have always been honorable.
Under this Government vast powers are
reposed in the judiciary: They are often
called upon to discharge their duties and
expound the Law in times of great pubic
excitement. and when just decision may
be, for the moment, very unpopular. In
such emergencies the public welfare fire.
quently depends uron the brave men who
may for the time being occupy the bench.
In private life it is esteemed commend
able for man TO change his opinion when
he is convinced that he is wrong or to cor
rect mistake when he has made one. The
obligation TO do so in that case is a private
one; III the case of judicial officer the Oh
legation is not only private one, but it is
public one-due not only TO his own
character, but due to the rights of the
litigants before him and TO the administra-
ton of justice in so far as it is confded to
him.

IT is difficult to see ho.. Secretary Proc
tor could have acted differently with con-
sistency than he did in declining to dress
the War Department buildings in mourn
ing for Jefferson Davis. The custom of
thus recognizing the death of ex-Secreta-
ries is not law, nor is it u.age that may
not be violated with entire propriety
where the deceased has occupied such a
peculiar relation towards the Government
as has Jefferson Davis The Secretary is
right in his refusal and to be commended
for it. The friends of Davis were mis-
guided in asking the incumbent Secretary
to drape the Department buildings.

BRAZIL.

According to an interview with Dom
Pedro, that ex-monarch confesses that he
has all along been anxious that the people
of Brazil should progress to that stage
where they would be fitted for free gov
eminent and capacitated to insure its per-
manency. But he believes that they have
not been sufficiently educated in that di-
reetion as yet, and he fears, therefore, that
the republic will fail. 1t is absurd, he
insists, to compare the people of Brazil
with those of the United States of North
America in the matter of capacity for self
government. In fact he says, the Brazil
ians possess more imagination than com
mon sense politically. The hope should
be that Dom Pedro is mistaken in his
judgment, and that the exigencies of the
hour may develop political forces and wis
dom that have been latent in the people,
and that they will be so wisely guided as
to insure the life of the new republic be-
yond a mere experimental stage. But it
must be confessed that Dom Pedro is a
man of such cool and careful judgment
that his opinion is entitled to great re-
spect. As wise ruler of the Brazilians
for the better partof halfcentury he must
have studied the capacity of his people
thoroughly and must understand them we'll.
But should the new republic fail, the fact
that it was attempted, and for time sue
ceeded, will forever render any monarchy
that may succeed it unstable, and subject
1t to the liability of overthrow on the
slightest pretext. If not now, eventually,
and in the near future, the Brazilians will
be seIfgoverning people.

A FEW days ago we said that Kentucky's pre-
eminenee among States as producer of equine
speed, endurance and beauty is not less marked
at the present time han it was ten years since,
this statement being applied to quantity as well
as quality We allowed much excellence to
Cali and Tennessee, and gave them due
credit for the honorable places to which they
are entitled in the annals of American breed
ing. but we considered their importance sec
ond1ry 10 that Of Kentucky. and never dreamed
of anyone questioning the fact.-LOuisrille
C0u igr-JoH'HGi
No, We suppose you have not dreamed of
any challenge of that kind being made.
But if the Journal will give attention to
the claims of California and the facts by
which they are fortified, it will understand
why Kentucky's claim of pre-eminence is
questioned. We are young as yet in the
business, but the natural advantages this
State possesses for breeding fine stock will
certainly give her first place in the bust
ness. The stock-growing of California is
certain to do more for her than the Blue
Grass region for Kentucky. 1t may cha
grin the Kentuckian, but he might as well
make up his mind that his State must take
second place, and that very soon.

The road to success in railroad circles
is hard at best to follow. Vice-President
Holcomb, of the Union Pacific, was once q
freight brakeman and did some hard work
turning the cranks. He worked in this
capacity on nearly every Western road,
and it is said takes pride in relating his
experience as a shack" Tom Potter fol-
lowed the same apprenticeship and made
quite a record in turning brakes on the
Northwestern. Ed. Dickinson. now as
sistant general manager of the Union
Pacific commenced railroading at the age
Of eleven years as a messenger boy for the
Cleveland & Toledo railroad at Cleveland
At the age OF fourteen. and during his
career as a messenger. he learned tele-
graphy and took a position as operator
on the Atlantic & Great Western. At the
age of seventeen he was made train dis
patcher on the same road. In 1879 he
came to Omaha as clerk and operator in
the freight Office, but returned to Cleve-
land shortly afterward as assistant train
dispatcher of the Cleveland & Toledo
His wrist giving out he was compelled to
cease operating and went on the road as
baggage and express messenger. In 1877
he was appointed superintendent of the
