The Chicago Tribune, speaking of Sena-
for Morrill, of Vermont, says; He was in
congress twelve years and has been in the
Senate twenty-three years" Isn't he in
congress when he is in the Senate? The
House of Representatives and the Senate
comprise the congress of the United States,
and the members of both houses are con-
gressmen, but to distinguish them those of
the upper house are called senators and those
of the lower house representatives, although
the term congressman is commonly applied
TO the latter only. In the sense the Tribune
applies the word congress" the distinction
is clearly wrong.

thought re owned the world. His mouth
was seldom shut except when he was asleep,
and it is by no means certain that it was
shut then. He was so generous with the
public money that if be had not been III
vited TO resign he would have spent, in all
probability. the whole of his annual apDro-
priation before half the obligations depend
ent upon it had BEEN hquidated-
It was thought that Commissioner Raum,
being an old politician, would steer clear of
scandals. He has not succeeded, however,
in doing 50. In his eagerness to get rich he
has made himself the subject of three
charges. One is that he mas made special a
large number of pension cases in which that
millionaire pension agent. Lemon, is il
terested and which will put into Lemons
pocket at least 500, 900. For this service,
1t IS alleged, Lemon endorsed RaUm's note
for $4,000. Another charge is that Raum,
who is president Of a company which
Is trying to force on the market a
refrigerator for which patent has been
obtained, promotes those of the employees of
the pension bureau who purchase the stock
of the company. Still another charge is
that Raum has an interest in a pension
claim agency business, which is managed by
his son, and that the cases which this son
handles always have the preference in the
pension bureau.
1t may be that MIR. Raum will be able to
show, when he goes before an investigating
committee of the House, that he is innocent
Of all Of these charges, and that
he is the victim Of some wicked
fellows who own rival patent
refrigerator. 1t will not be as easy a nat
ter, perhaps, to explain why the millionaire
Lemon Endorsed his note for s25, 900. Lemon
is known to be one of the shrewdest men in
Washington. He doesn't indorse peoples
notes without he sees some benefit to him
self in the transaction. He handles more
pension cases than any other pension claim
agent. 1t is natural that he should be will
ing to do favor for the pension commits
sioner, because the commissioner can adj
vance or retard the settlement of his cases.
Mr.. Raum will have to be very watchful
when he gets before the investigating COM
nittee, or the President will have to hunt
for new pension commissioner.

The ways of tickle fortune and the uncer-
tainties of racing were never better illus
trated than in the case of G. r. 1ompkins
the horse reporter of the New York Sun,
who last year won $1,000 on a s. Paris
mutual pool ticket, and who subsequently
made fortune in Similar investments. Out
of his winnings he bought Hindoocraft, and
the horse accomplished wonders for hi S
owner, winning record and many heavy
stakes. Last week Tompkins was laughed
at when at an expense of $1,000 he bought
Paragon, who 70 rmerly made disgraceful
exhibit of himself, and was sold at a sacri-
flee. Tompkins entered him in the Rance
ras handicap, and he won for his owner three
times as much as his purchase money. Mr..
Tompkins is certainly entitled to the sobri-
quet of Lucky.

Europe will be treated to very sensa-
tional divorce case soon. NJ Chrstich,
formerly prime minister of Servia and
later Serviap minister to Berlin, has finally
decided to get a voice from his wife.
Artemesia. 1t is a matter of notoriety that
the political advancsm ent of M. Christich,
and his retention of the several high positions
to which he was raised were due solely to his
acquiescence in questionable relatio ns be-
tween his wife and his sovereign, King
Milan, who was compellei to abdicate his
throne on account of his prohigacy aad
immortality. The matter also formed the
basis of the suit for divorce Of Queen Ma
talie. The latter, who is keenly incenssd
against the unfaithful father of her son,
will now have an opportunity of revenge,
and it is expected that she willy contribute
very largely to the sensational character
of the proceedings. NJ Chrlstich's action
comes rather late. Had nd bsel a self
respecting man he would have sought
divorce years ago.

A Problem to Solve.

To raise the standard of recruits for the
army and navy is one of the problems that
Uncle Sam will have to solve soon.

sertion evil is rapidly decreas.
ing, the number o: deserhons re-
ported for April being about 100 less than
for the corresponding month in 1889. For
May similar creditable showing is made
Recent reforms in the treatment of enlisted
men have brought about this welcome
change. and an order issusd by the Secre-
tary of War some time ago permitting any
recruit, after he has been in the service
three months and until he has served seven
months. to apply for a discharge. state the
reason of his disaffectioa and get an honor
able dismissal, has almost put an end to
assertions at the recruiting posts, where
formerly probably 30 per cent. of them
occu rcd
The most desirable recruits, however,
avail themselves of this open door to leave
the service. They find after a short expert.
ence that there is great deal of difference
between the real and the ideal of a soldiers
life, and even the opportunities afforded for
distinction and promotion after four or five
years service do not lure them on.
In order to render attractive the service to
the class of men it is desired to enlist, army
officers have suggested the revision of the
pay table. They have reached the conclu-
sion that this is the only way the quality OF
enlisted men can be improved. None are
better qualified to judge than the officers,
whose opinions are based on prac sjcal
experience, and congress and the war de-
partment should give the matter considera-
ton. Thirteen dollars a month does not
seem like good wages to the average young
man, and it is not made much mora at
tractive when he is told that in time he may
be made a corporal at SIS per month, or a
sergeant at SIT, or, if he has exceptionally
good luck, a first sergeant, and receive $22
a month
The same arguments apply to the navy,
ard now that aliens can no longer bs
enlisted on American war vessels, it is be-
ginning to be a serious question where the
sailors are to como from to man the ships
kept in commission. Boys educ ated in the
naval squadrons seldom re-enlist, but are
attracted to the merchant service, where
they receive better pay

An Unpardonable Offense.

The MORNING News had occasion to re-
mark the other day that the republican
leaders would hesitate at nothing to remove
faithful henchman who had sacrificed
everything, even his honor, at the bidding
of the bosses, if he got in the way. A case
in point is that of Otis H. Russell, postmaster
at Richmond, Va. Russell was for
merly deputy collector OF internal revenue
and collector The latter Office he held I'D
to December, 1888, when he was removed
by Mr.. Cleveland for using public funds
entrusted to him for private purposes.
When the shortage was discovered he made
good the amount, $500, within an hour.
The special agent of the treasury, who re-
ported the case to the Secretary
Of the Treasury, recommended him to
mercy, and the secretary contented himself
with dismissing the unfaithful officer from
the service, whereas he could have been
criminally prosecuted as an embezzler.
Mr.. Russell, not daunted, sought "vindi-
cation" at the hands of the present
administration, and be was rewarded with
the chief Office in Virginia in another de-
partment. But now Russell is in disgrace.
He has committed an objectionable offense.
and probably must so. The crime he is ac-
cused of this time is closing the postoffice
on the day the statue of Lee was unveiled.
Looting the treasury and embezzhng gov
eminent funds and similar ''indiscretions"
on the part of republican officeholders are
condoned, but an offense against the
"bloody shirt" policy will never be for
given.
But is there anything surprising in the
appointment of Russell, and the present
outburst Of indignation against hima Is it
not in keeping with the nomination for a
foreign post of such men as J. o. Kirby.
and the removal of soldiers widows

his party organs begins early. The New

the case, says: "Gen. Raum has been too
long in public life and his record is too
honorable to be smirched at this late day."
The pious editor was evidently inspired to
take this charitable view of the matter
before the charges were either sustained or
refuted oy the following text, which ap-
peared at the head OF the editorial columns

If Mr. Blaine shall. in the end, succeed III
mpressing his views as to the necessity OF
entering into reciprocity treaties with the
Latin American Republics upon the men,
hers Of the senate who have the Mchnie!
bill in charge, he will have given the pro-
tectiyc system the most serious blow 1t VIII
have received during long period. Logic
ally speaking, the Republicans are rlgh''
from the protective standpoint, in their OPP
position to reciprocity treaties, because
they really open up a course OF Tree trade
by srecial provision. "lf You VIII ADMIT
my agricultural and mechanical products
TO your ports free Of import duty the
United States says to the Latin American
Il will exempt your sugar from
a similar tax when it seeks an entrance
into my ports" such mutual agreement
could be made by the United states ana
any other country on the globe, so that SEN
ator Vance was entirely pertinent in his re-
cent inquiry in the Senate: If a reciprocity
treaty is advisable in our commercial rela-
tons with South ana Central America, why
not with the European powers; why not
indeed, with the whole world:
This inquiry Will be echoed by all VINO
are hostile to the present restrictive tarill'
Why should our reciprocity treaties be con-
fined in their scope especially so far as our
agricultural products are concerned: The
Republicans are shrcwd enough to rccoS-
nize the force of this question as showing
the Inconsistency between protection and
the principles Of reciprocity. A reciprocity
treaty with South America, for instance, IS
an entering wedge that may in the ehd
split the whole protection system asunder'
and for that reason, it is very doubtful
whether secretary Blaine's suggestion, adj
mirable as it is in itself, will De accepted

associates.
