CREAM OF THE PRESS.

fNeW York Times

A correspondent calls attention 10 the
sharp contrast in the results Of crime IN
two conspicuous instances. \ man who
was State Treasurer of Penns, lyania has
been openly charged with the embezzle-
ment OF public funds while in Office, with
offers of proof, and the charge has not been
denied by the person implicated. That
man is now a member Of the United States
Senate, and aspires 10 ''0wn "A Governor"
and is recognized leader in the party Of
grea, "mOral IDEAS" A man who was State
treasurer of Maryland was charged with
embezzling the public funds Of that State
10 a much smaller extent while in Office.
He was indicted, and on being brought 70
trial pleaded guilty, and was sentenced 10
five years in the penitentiary. There il a
great difference between six years in the
Senate and five years in prison. The differ
ence In the facts la the two cases appears
20 be that the first man succeeded, by pOlit-
zeal influence in the party Of 'moral ideas,v
in having the stolen money replaced The
other was not so favored with rich and DOW
erful political friends. The difference in
the moral guilt In the two cases il nil.

New York Herald

When the summer comes and the silly
season opens we expect our share Of sensa-
tons from irresponsible newspapers--as a
general rule about prize Strawberries,
snakes, fayorte actors and sea serpents,
varied with stupend0us stories as 20 ''cif-
culati0n." Sometimes these stories take the
form Of the aqueduct breaking and drown.

The usual midsummer madness on the
seal question has broken out little ea-ier
than usual. 1t was very hot and bitter on
Monday, but Gained down yesterday. Ac-
cOrding to first accounts, the interference
with Canadin sealers in the Behring sea by
our cutters was 20 be the signal for an on
slaught by the British cruisers. sir Julian
Paunceforte denies these allegations, and
SAYS that the seal fishery is just now the
subject Of friendly negotiation between him
and Mr.. Blaine. The only American war
vessel now in the Behring sea is a steam
tug, the "Pinta." The British squadron
there consists Of several vessels, and is
concentrated at Esquimault, b. c., as is
usual in the summer.

If Malone had accepted that command of

insisted that the Republican State Central
Committee, of Virginia, should meet on the

that ''where am there is the Virginia Re

The Hon. Thomas Bracket Reed must be
about ready to adjourn himse The WORK
that he cut out for the House has been
mostly done. and unless the silver men
break away, il has all been done 10 his sat
isfacti0n and in accordance with his specl-
fcations. Mr. Reed has had very lively
session, and be must begin 20 long for the
breezes OF Portland Bay. His record as a
House of Representatives entities him 10 a
vacation. He can look back ON himself WIN
considerable pride and eii-cOngrdtulation.
lie has changed the House rules so that the
minority have no rights. lie has unseaied
Democrats ina quantities TO suit. lie has adj
mitled two Republican Territories into the
Union. He has passed q Tariff bill which
nobody in particular seems 10 want, and
which many Of the men who were made 10
vote for il didn't want. He has scOtched
free silver coinage. although The west, the
South. and at least part OF the East, want
free silver coinage. lie has driven through
the House "A BayOnet bill, which Southern
Republicans do not want and many North
ern Republicans are afraid OF.

hcit. II has come 10 the pomt where a
change Of policy is imperative. the sub

are all ieoparded by the narrowing margin
Of unspent treasure.
