NOBLE IMPULSES

The baleful influence of too much sur
plus and the supreme effort that the
statesmen Of the majority party are
making ''to bust" it has struck the occu-
pant of the White House. 1t will be seen
from the following letter that President
Harrison has gone to work with reck-
lessness that would startle ex-President
Hayes and impair the fecundity Of the
poultry crop, to bust his own surplus
The Washington Critic says
President Harrison received polite note

charge OF the proposed testimonial in marble
or bronze 10 be presented to France as a token
OF gratitude for the men and ships she iuT-
nished the struggling colonists during the
Revolutionary war. The note requested a
contribution from the head Of the American
nation as a very proper start for the fund.
The president promptly contributed, as the
following letter will show.

Of your letter of March last, with the ac-
companying documents, the President directs
me TO enclose 81. as desired, TO the propo 5ed
memorial from America to France.
"E w. Halford, Private Secretary"
Now of course nobody could object to
an exhibition of exaggerated and intense
gratitude toward those noble Frenchmen
who assisted us in our struggle against
England. That shows Mr.. Harrison &
pure and lofty patriotism. 1t goes up
like the sweet incense of prayer and
carries all patriotic hearts with it in one
common and universal pean of thanks
and admiration as the only fitting recon-
pense we can offer to the heroes WHIT
risked their lives to establish thiI
country in its glorious freedom.
But we do object to this reckless anC
unnecessary expenditure of treasure

GUS patriotism has deprived him, for th,
moment, Of his customary prudence ant

WE print letter from Rev. ]. S.
willis Of Milford in reference to the
post o6ice fight there. Mr.. Willis states
that he endorsed one applicant while the
Milford News and Advertiser prints his
name among the endorsers Of Mr.. sipple
and the Daily Republican Of this city
prints his name among the endorsers OF
AIR. Thomas. These statements ars not
consistent, but neither one of them has
been denied. Mr.. Willis admits that
he endorsed one applicant, but his
party friends print his name among the
enaorsers Of two rival candidates. 1t
would likely be impolitic for Mr.. Willis
20 admit that he endorsed the wrong man
gr to deny that he endorsed tbs man
whose political friend he is supposed to
AaFe been. Hence the matter is in
doubt a. 20 which one he endorsed,
though It IS certain that be did endorse
one. This delicious doubt leaves the
matter in such state that everybody

THE clamor against the census ques-

atty Of 800 for refusing to answer
them. As in the Tanner affair it re-
quires show Of great and universal
Indignation TO induce the present admin.
istration to act with good sense Those
census questions were outrageous, USE
less and illegal. They invaded
the personal rights Of citizens,
could not have resulted in any
benefit to the scholars or historians
Of the country and they were not author
ized by the constitution. Notwithstand
ing all this an intense public clamor was
requisite TO procure their withdrawal. AL
Of this shows that this administration
is entirely Republican affair Il does mo-
feel any responsibility TO the people
Unless a great clamor is raised IL nevel
considers the people.
