TO PROTECT THEIR PROPERTY,

which they had not gathered for the
purpose of tuI ming over to the receiver
They did not hasten to turn their prop
erty over to him. The receiver pro-
ceeded with his attorneys to unearth
property, and discovered that it had
been distributed.
Judge Powers then went over the
same ground as he did before Exam
liner HARNESS., in regard to the variety
Of property.
JUDGE JUDD-Any butter and eggs?
JUDGE PowERs-Butter and eggs7 Yes;
and pork, and molasses, and honey,
and a hundred other things, which this
court, if it had been in the auction
business. wouldn't have given 80 cents
on the dollar for. The receiver began
pursuing il but found il was disbursed.
There was property discovered. how
ever, in the way of stocks, etc. (; but
this proceeding was SO doubtful that
the chief justice gave an opinion that
the receiver was not justified in the
seizure of that property. Finally q
compromise was agreed upon, by which
the receiver got S25 0O0 more property
than the church had at the time the
property was seized upon. There is no
doubt but the enforcement of the law
and the receivers energy brought about
the compromise.
The property was turned over to the
receive aud the case appealed. The
receiver had not filled the courts with
law suits, but he had secured property
that would have been lost by the suits.
You might as well go out duck hunting
with br So band as for the receiver to
have announced to bose neope that il
they ! MT bring n their property b.
would sue them, as has Deen suggested.
Why, his suits would have amounted to
nothing, because the property would
have been got out of the way. He was
not placed in Office to fay and torture
this people, but to be fair between the
two parties to the litigation.

Political things larguish. Since the adj
journment of the legislatures around us,
fewer politicians drop down here. OF
local interest, the appointment OF Col.
+. c. Loveland to be pension agent in
city and of John F. Plummer to be gov
ernment director of the Union Pacific
railroad are the only current theme of
the kind. Both these men are very pop
uldr here, and thus far few murmurs of
dissatisfaction are heard even OF the
party sort.
The proposed construction of new
Union League club house in Brooklyn is
worthy of mention In this connection,
showing as it does the wealth and ag-
gressive tactics of Republicans in Kings
county, which is to be field for hotter
party battles than ever before. From an
architectural point Of view the new build
ing will be a credit to the city, and so far
as the Republican party may have an
interest in it, or can be responsible for its
erection. it will be credit to the party,
for it will be one of the finest structures
of its kind In the country. Apart from
its political effect there is side of club
organization which excites admiration
and wins commendation even from those
who have no personal interest in them
for they contribute to the Identification
of the city, the enhancement of its tax
values, and the attractions of its social
life; and since the Republicans have de-
termined to establish their Union League
clubhouse, they are at least to be con-
graduated by Democratic citizens on the
largeness of the plans adopted and the
size and imposing character of the build
ing they propose to erect.
An unpretentious house on Henry
street, Brooklyn, attracts unusual atten-
tion, by the way, since 1t became the dom
icie of the much-discussed eX-0ank pres
ident and ex-convict James d. Fish.
Since his occupancy of this quiet retrea.

age and commission business on Maiden

THE Galveston News, like many an
other democratic journal has taken its
own will for the deed, in the case OF
the change in the pension commits
sioner, and pretends a world of COM
miseration for the poor republican
journals that have been left in the
lurch. The News says:
Harrison should at least have
given the republican papers an init
nation of his intention as to Tanner.
Had he done so most of them would
not now have been embarrassed with
the thought that they swore up to the
very moment of his dismissal that he
was the man for the place and that he
would not be relieved of office. These
irritated journals, with the southern
republican politician and the Grand
Army of the Republic, will see Mr..
Harrison later, perhaps about the time
the republican convention meets to -
lect candidate for president"
So! Will the News rise in its place
as a democratic exponent and
inform the country what "most'
of those republican journals
"swore" that Tanner was just the
man for the place? Tanners APP
pointment was acquiesced in because
it was only fair to give the admins
tration appOintees a chance to show
their fitness for office. Corporal Tan
ner never has been considered a man
of wise reticence, and it was his lack
of this, more than anything else, that
led to his dismissal. Tanners policy,
as liberal eXpounder of pension law,
will not be revised and it is not be-
cause Of too much love for the old SOL
dier, but on account of too little dis
erection with his mouth that Tanner
was so soon relieved from office. The
are not condemning the
removal of Tanner. His appointment
like others was acquiesced in pending
a demonstration of his fitness. No
charge of dishonesty or corruption
has ever been seriously alleged
against him. The democracy do we'll
to make this howl and IN making it
demonstrate their fear of getting any
thing tangible to howl over. So long
as men like Warner are called upon
to supply Tanners place or men like
Merrill, there will be no disgruntle-
ment by the Grand Army men.

HE Fort Worth Gazette is among
the number of those of whom it may
be asked: rs Saul also among the
prophets?n The Gazette says:
The new pension commissioner will
find himself between the devil and the
deep sea. If he carries out Tanners
policy, he will have the people to set
tie with; if he doesn't, the Grand Ar
my will be after him bigger than a
wolf. No wonder Warner declined
the office.
The "people" referred to in this pri-
marily means the Southern democra-
cy, for which the Gazette is no doubt
empowered to speak. This admins
tration came into power by no aid of
the Southern democracy; 1T continues
in power by no good will of that de-
mocracy; its policy is not such as is
dictated by that democracy and its
continuance in power will be despite
the effects of said democracy.
