His own vanity.

Lancaster pa New Era.
If Corporal Tanner comes to grief, a
circumstance by no means improbable, he
will have only his own vanity to thank
for his misfortune. With his elevation
TO the head Of the Pension Bureau, his
true character seems to have blossomed
into maturity. 1t was great thing for
him, and he at once reached the conclu
sion that he was about the greatest man
in all the nation-''a bigger man than
old Grant Unfortunately, he was
afflicted with the failing so common to
men Of his type, the inability to keep all
his grand ideas of his self-importance
to himself He not only began
to talk about the wonderful things he
meant to do, but he began to do them in
reality In fact. he went ahead with such
rapidity, that before his immediate su-
periors could persuadelthemselves he was
only blowing he had already .sowed a
plentiful crop Of mischief. The result has
been that commission has been ap-
pointed to investigate his methods.
Meanwhile halt has been called, and
for the present he will no doubt be less
ELUSIVE II all that has been charged
against him be true, he will have to walk
the plank II he has been maligned, the
country will rejoice in his vindication.

WHEN Roswell G. Horr of Michigan
was in the House Of Representatives he
posed as a rival Of that inimitable wit
and admirable statesman, Sunset" Cox
of New York. President Harrison was
in the Senate at the same time and still
he offered the witty Horr a consulship at
Valparaiso which nobody would think Of
suggesting to Cox. Hence it seems that
wit, at least Michigan wit, does not make
an impression upon the grandfather of
the Mckee baby.

Fundamental Rule.

Harper's Weekly.
The wisdom Of the fundamental rule
that the limit of taxation should be the
honest necessities of the Government is
shown by the consequences of its viola
tion. There is an uneasy feeling that
the surplus may cause trouble, and that
an extra session may be found desirable
to provide against disaster The surplus
is money withdrawn from circulation, ar
to trust to bond purchasing to le-
duce 1t is to depend upon the Treasury
for business relief The consequences Of
such dependence are obvious. Besides
placing the business Of the country at
the discretion of the Secretary. it stimu-
lates confidence in the certainty Of
relief which is often delusive. It is an
abandonment Of sound principles at
tended with the possibilities of catas-
trophe which would precipitate
panic. The interference OF
the government with the money
market is also to be deprecated. And al
though there is no special apprehension
arising from the actual situation, there
is undoubtedly feeling that the de-
msnd for money viii be presently very
large, and the condition Of the Treasury
even If the Treasury were proper re.
source in an emergency, is not altogether

Wine and Temperance.

A certain class of people, them
selves generally the dovotees of @s-
thetic wine-drinking, argue in favor
of increased Interpretation as one
method of lessening the evils of in
temperance. They not only ignore
the fact that alcoholic wines stim-
ulate the alcoholic appetite on the
part of those who uso them, but also
that brandy distillation is an impor-
tant adjunct of the wine e-making busi-
ness in all wine-producing countries.
1t is just now announced from Califor-
MIA in leading liquor journal that
las the demand for brandy is on the
increase, there is talk of the erection
of several very large distilleries, which
will tend to relieve the market of in
ferior wine and procure better name
for the California brand generally"
Thus is the increased wine-production
of California attended with an in
creased demand also for brandy, and
accompanied by largely increased IA
cilities for brendy-making. 10th
mean, in the ultimate outcome, untold
suffering and ruin in many an Amer
lean home. National Temperance
Advocate.

Heavy Robbery.

BELToN, Tex, Sept. 2l-At three O'Clock
yesterday morning the Missouri, Kansas
& Texas train arrived here and while it
stood on the track in front OF the depot
the Pacific express car was entered, the
safe quickly opened and $4,000 deftly
taken out The express messenger was
asleep and unfortunately for the company
he had left the car door partly open.
The train men and people about the
depot did not see the robbers at work and
the supposition is that theyeither found the
safe open or quickly picked the lock. Tne
train stopped here fif cen minutes and the
robbery was accomplished and the thieves
gone fore the signal to start was given.
few n ght ago the safe in the depot was
opened in a mysterious manner and $500
taken. The express robbery is supposed
to have been done by the depot robbers.
