THE FOREIGN MISSIONS.

The Constellation of Nobodies Appointed
by tho Grandson of His Grandfather.
All tho charlatanism Of the Repub-
lican party expressed itself in Gar
fields choice of Robert L. Lincoln for
Secretary of War. The persistence Of
that idea was most notably proved by
the retention of Lincoln in subsc-
quent Cabinet, whence all but he had
fled. 1t was in keeping with this bo-
gus Republican spirit that Frederick
Grant, partner OF Ferdinand Ward,
was nominated for Secretary of State
in New York in 1887. Harrison 5
haste to send Grant to Austria-Hun-
gary exhibited his faith in Republican
humbuggery.
The mission to the court of st.
James is now given to Robert T. Lin
coin, gentleman who. left to his own
resources, would remain in an obscure
station through life. Mr.. Lincoln
goes to fill a place such as was in
trusted to the Adamses, Franklins
and Je1fersons when the Republic was
feeble The idea must be that in its
might, this Nation needs a lower type
of ability.
Why Mr.. Harrison should pass out
side of politics to resurrect the son-of-
his-father idea as a joss for fools
worship can also be explained with
the drgumentum al hominem. Mr..
Harrison is himself the beneficiary of
the son-of-his-father's propaganda.
Democratic Republicans should not be
thankful for such step toward mon
archy and aristocracy.
The appointments of Editor Rice, of
the North American Review, to Rus
STA, and Patrick Egan to Chill are in
the nature of wages due. Both these
gentlemen damaged their own reputa-
ton for fairness and intelligence in
upholding the war tariff.
The mission of Mr.. Halstead &c
Germany was not to be idly criticised.
Mr.. Halstead, once out of Ohio, be.
comes statesman. Doubtless he
would have reflected honor on his
country-at least the Herald has no
other thought. Merit and service to
his party award him a conspicuous
place in our blue book. If he could
not have shone alone when set in such
constellation of nobodies as now for
the first time adorps our diplomatic
heavens, he would have disappointed
even those readers whom he has al
ready disheartened by his overweening
spirit of editorial partisanShip. Chi

PRESIDENTIAL LOOT.
The First and Second Harrison and the
Half-Starved BuZzards.

haH-StafSeu buZzaruS.
1t seems popularity of Presidents
of the house of Harrison that they at
tract to the place where the spoils car
cass is more of the buzzards called
oifice-seekers than do Presidents Of
any other family. During fifty years
from the organization of the republic
in 1899 the capital never witnessed
any thing like the countless hordes Of
the hungry and the thirsty that
swarmed there upon the accession Of
Harrison the First Their numbers,
their opportunities by day and by
night, their incessant, ravenous, hid
eous clamor for the loot and booty of
public places and emplOyments, drove
the poor old man who held the ap-
pointing power to delirium and death
in thirty days. Says a historian of
his brief reign: Sometimes in his
delirium he would say: My dear
madam, did not direct that your hus-
band should be turned out. l did not
know it. tried to prevent it, On
another occasion he cried out in broken
sent!-itis unjust! These applications
will they never. never ceaser" In
deed, it is an accepted fact of history
that the resistless assault of the army
of office-beggers was the cause of the
death of the first Harrison exactly one
month after his Inauguration.
The horde of buzzards by which Har-
rison the Second is now environed ex-
ceeds in number, as well as in raven
business, those that killed his ancestor.
And it is the openly expressed opin-
ion of the Northern Senator from Hi
nois that they will drive this Harrison
also to his death, unless he shall pro-
coed at once to farm out the appointing
power to the Senators-"which ought
to be ours by right" says that Senator.
MIR. Farwell overlooks the fact that
Harrison the Second is much younger
man than was Harrison the First, and
the further fact that, being a graduate
of the political school of Indiana, he
is tough, sir! very tough!' There is
not SO much danger, therefore, that
the spoils-beggars will kill him; but
the likeness in other respects between
the conditions following the installa.
ton OF the two Harrisons suggests
some occult and mysterious relation of
the house of Harrison to the Unsuitable
lust OF the Presidential loot and booty.

No Chemicals.

IN THESE DAYS when food adulteration is
so common, it is comfort to find an article
for the table that is thoroughly reliable.
Walter Baker & Co.'S breakfast cocoa is
eminent In this limited class. No chemicals
are used IN its manufacture and it is abso-
lutely pure. 1t forms moreover delicious
and healthful drink, as refreshing, and more
nutritious, than tea or coffee, and free from
tho injurious effects that those beverages
sometimes produce. And 1t is very cheap
withal. The house of Walter Baker & Co.
has maintained for more than 100 years a
great and honored repute by the excellence
and purity of its manufactures.
