UNLESS Bardsley makes clean breast
of it, there is little probability that the
truth regarding the robbery of the state,
the city and the wrecked banks will
ever be known. The administration is
in the scandal up to the neck, and has
carefully arranged that the investiga-
ton shall bring out as few facts as pos
sible. One of the first duties of con-
gress on assembling next winter will be
to appoint a committee that will probe
to the bottom facts. Federal officials
high in station are involved, the reputa-
ton of the government has been
smirched, faith in the national banks
has been weakened by the proof that
the so called examination can be made a
part of the machinery of swindling, and
without such an investigation there is
no probability that the guilty will be
exposed and punished. Postmaster
General Wanamaker, Assistant Secre-
tary of the Treasury Nettleton and
Comptroller Lacey must be examined
allowed to get off with ex parte estate
ments." Light must be turned into the
dark places, even if it should disclose
the fact that the Wanamaker corruption
fund with which Quay bought Harri-
sons election was stolen from the tax
payers of Philadelphia and Pennsyl-
Vania.

on corporations, but urgently re-
quest that bill be passed encour-

CIVIL SERVICE.

The proposition recently made tc
pension civil officials after a term Of
public service has not met with
much support in this country, and
has, on the contrary, called forth
more or less objection to the civil
service system itself, says the New
Orleans Times-Democrat. There is
no reason why government officials
should be thus favored with pen
sicns beyond other persons. The
employee who works for a corpora
ton, firm or private person must
manage to save out of his salary
enough to support his family in lat
ter life, for he cannot expect to be
pensioned by his employer. Why
should brother clerk working for
the government at perhaps better
salary be thus favored out of the
pockets of the tax payers and retired
on pension.

ANEW rARIrR sYsrEM.

The tariff '.in kind" is q new idea
the suggestion of the National Demo
crat, which itsays it is proud of hav.
ing invented and advises VIM. Nc
Kinley, ir., in the leisure he is hav.
ing since the 4th of March, to study in.
The tariff in kind would be q
unique gem in the Republican plat
form of 1892. The idea itself is
not new, but its application is en-
tirely original The idea itself is
borrowed from the toll mill. The
miller takes his toll in kind. Out of
each bushel of wheat or corn he
takes a certain measure and grinds
the rest for his customers, As ap-
piled to the tariff the plan is to let
the custom houses work on the same
principle.
When the collector gets hold of q
peace of silk cloth let him tear off
one-third of it and hand two-thirds
to the importer who would then pay
a so per cent duty on the piece Of
silk that reached him. When box
of window glass reaches the cnilec-
tor let him take out half of it and
deliver one-half to the importer. In
the case of q box of tin plates let
him take out about 60 sheets, after
July next, and deliver 50. This
system of collecting duties would be
simple and easily understood, and
the entire force of appraisers could
be dispensed with, and the collector
would always get just exactly the
right amount of duty.
AS the avowed object of our re-
cent tariff laws is to reduce the
the tariff in kind would |
make it extremely easy to attain this |
end. If this foreign merchandise,
seized in the New York custom
house, were taken to the Battery and
burned up, the revenues would be
reduced, the sale of foreign goods in
the country would be curtailed, and
the most effective lesson of the wick.
edness of foreign trade would be
taught.
But if this cut off the revenue too
effectively, a part of the merchan-
1ise might be sent back to Europe
and sold there. The Government
would, of course, pay the freight,
and this would promote American
shipping, to the intense delight of
the subsidists.

THE DEADLY oIaARETrE.

] The latest victim to yield to The
ravages of the cigarette is reported
from San Antonio. The victim il
Ernest Ameling, a young drug clerk
who was on Thursday last examined
by the county court as to his sanity
and adjudged insane. The testlmo
ny of two physicians was that exces
sive cigarette smoking was his
mania and this had probably pro
duced insanity.
This is only the last aud most re
cent OF many similar instances slight
ly variated, some dying from the ef,
fects of over indulgence in the habit
before going crazy, that could be
pointed out to the cigarette smokers
as warning to let up, before it is
everlastingly too late.
1t is needless to appeal to parents
to prohibit the boys from indulging
in the cigarette smoking habit, for
no parent would allow it, was it in
their power to prevent it, but kids
all the way from five to fifteen years
of age indulge their depraved taste
for the weed" in the form of cigar
cites when out of the sight of par
ents, and it is no uncommon thing
in this city to hear, ''Give me CT
garette," as the first salutation when
two small boys meet, so we appeal
to the boys direct.
Boys, in the numerous papers We
glance over every few days We read
of similar instances of this San An
tonic boy, of some boy who goes
crazy, dies of nicotine poison, or
,atarrh brought on by cigarette
smoking. 1t weakens the mind,
gives you the pale emaciated appear
snce of consumptive, and if it
ioes not run you crazy will drag
you prematurely to the grave.
While young, the habit is more
'asily broken and you should drop |
at once, or in the end it will drop |
-ou. If you must use tobacco don't
moke cigarettes, for that is the
worst form, and will more quickly
uin your nervous system, run you
razy and ultimately kill you than
ny other way.
