Not the Okalona Crank.

If 1t were not pretty well known who
Col. Elliott F. Shepard is, there would be
some ground for thinking that he is the
crank who attracted so much attention
few years ago by editing, in little town of
Mississippi. a paper known as the Oklahoma
States. 1t was the craziest kind of a bloody
shirt sheet, and it amused the people of
Mississippi immensely. Indeed, they rather
encouraged the crank to do his level best to
make q sensation. They had no fear that
the influence of his paper would be harmful
TO their state. In fact, it had no influence,
because everybody with grain of common
sense knew that the stuff it printed was the
production of some one who was mentally
unbalanced.
OF course Col. Shepard is not the Okla
Iona crank, but he makes his paper so much
like the one that was printed by that crank
that he is liable TO create the impression
that he is the same fellow. The people of
the south, against whom his rawlings are
directed, do not mird him in the least, but
it would seem as if the Vanderbilts, with
whom he is connected by marriage, would,
in self-protection, have him suppressed as a
nuisance.
Col Shepard wants his readers to be-
lieve that the south is getting ready for
another civil war. In his paper, the Mail
and Cypress, the other day. he said: THE
war is coming again, and will come, as in
1861, with democratic ushering." Not
being satisfied with this assertion, he said:
1.-THE student OF history must be indeed
both blind and deaf. if he will not see and
cannot hear all the deep-mutterei threats
against the life of the natl IN that come up
from the politicians of the southeast, and
vows of vengeance and conservation to the
cause of the confederacy which they are
encouraging all through their regions"
Col. Shepard ought to make trip south
and invest some of his money in southern
lands, forests and mines. If he really has
a reasonable amount of common sense he
would be SO disguised with himself for pub
fishing such idiotic stuff about the southern
people as fills his newspaper, that he would
be ready to hire a Mississippi roustabout to
kick him into a condition of speeches. in
activity.

The Tail Of the Cabinet.

1t is reported that a few days ago at
cabinet meeting, Secretary Rusk remarked,
when some suggestion Of his was not re-
ceived with favor, that he knew that he
was the tail of the cabinet, but that the tail
might be found IN be extremely serviceable
before the summer was over in keeping the
flies off the administration. What the
Secretary meant for a bit of humor, not
entirely free from trace Of bitterness, may
prove TO have contained a good dsal of
truth.
The administration is not very popular
with the republican leaders. aud the pros
pect is that it will become still more IN
popular with them. Some of them are
hunting for excuses to attack it. They are
saying some uncomplimentsry things about
it, and it is certain that if the President
doesn't show them little more considera-
ton they win do their best to make the
administration so offensive that the fies
will bother it good deal.
The members OF the cabinet do not APP
pear to be very well pleased with the course
toe President pursues toward them They
would like to exercise the powers and
P'A'NSSCo Ioe@OiulntClJ "
their respective departments. but 1t seems
they are not permitted to do so. 1t is re-
ported that Mr.. Blaine remarked the other
day to a senator. who asked him for a small
consulship for friend, that he had not the
power to dispose of even the least import
ant consulships without the consent of the
President, and that the President took it
upon himself to make all the appoint
mentS
The impression seems to be that the Presi-
dent wants the idea to get abroad that he is
very independent sort of a man-such a
man as he understands Mr.. Cleveland is
in order to force denomination in spite of
the politicians of his party. If this impress
sion is correct the chances are that the
President will find that he has made
very great mistake. He is not the
sort of man that Mr.. Cleveland
is, and he is, therefore. likely to fail where
Mr.. Cleveland succeeded If he isn't very
careful he will be, before the summer is
over, what President johnson was, viz, a
political dead duck" In that event the
tail of his cabinet will not be of much
service to him, because the keeping the flies
off him will do him no good

To Whom the Credit ia Dine.

The Samoan question is settled An agree
ment has been signed between England,
Germany and this country which is under
stood to be satisfactory to the President
and his cabinet.
1t is the understanding that there were
some minor points in the agreement that
were not satisfactory to Mr.. Blaine. He
waived his objection to them, howev er.
rather than run the risk of having the OBJ
iect for which the conference was called
defeated. One of these minor points is said
to have been a claim by Germany for q
nominal amount for the attack on the Ger
man soldiers by Mataafa'S men in Decam-
Der last. The effect of the admission of
this claim is TO place Mataafa in the wrong.
1t seems to be understood that Malietoa
is to be restored as king. He was defeated
by the Germans, and his restoration is an
admissi IN that the Germans acted wrongl y
in deposing and deporting him.
The peaceful settlement of the Samoan
matter on the lines marked out by this
country, cannot be claimed as diplomatic
triumph for Mr.. Blaine. Mr.. Blaine took
up the matter where Mr.. Bayard left it,
and followed the programme the latter had
mapped out. Whatever credit, therefore,
there is, growing out of the Samoan set
Element, is due to Mr. Bayard.

snaalls, GOOD Fortuna.

Congressman Robert Smalls, of South
Carolina, who has just been given the col
lectorship of Beaufort, has a great deal
more luck than merit. In fact, if he were
dealt with according to his merits, he would
not be preparing to take possession of a very
comfortable public office.
His appointment was, doubtless, some
thing of surprise to the people of the
congressional district in which he resides.
The republican candidate for congress in
that district, at the last congressional cleo
ton, was a man named Miller. When
Smalls applied for the Beaufort collector
ship. Miller filed charges against him. One
of them was that he was not true to his
party, hut was kicker and disorganizer
and, therefore, was not entitled to political
recognition of any kind.
Smalls managed to convince the Presi-
dent, however. that he was very excellent
man, and that the charges against him had
no other foundation than malice and a
desire to ruin him. How he succeeded in
getting the favor of the President is one of
the many mysteries which appear to en-
velop this administration.
The colored Office seekers are jubilant
over Smalls' appointment, not because they
care particularly about Smalls, but because
they think the President, having appointed
one black man to good Office in the south
will appoint good many more black men.
They are confident that the appointment of
Smalls opens the door for them in all the
southern states, and that in few days
other black men will be appointed to good
Offices.
They may be right, but the chances are
they are mistaken. Unless the presidential
mind has undergone a very great change
the black brigade will not capture many of
the offices, although steadily charging on
them.
