TAKING A MEAN ADVANTAGE.

Now that Robert r. Lincoln is alb
sent from the country as Minister to
England and csunot help himself,
certain newspapers, among them the
Kansas CITY Star aud the Leaven-
worth Times. have nominated him
for the presidency. We are unac-
auainted with the cause that prompt
ed the Star liz this matter. unless it
be general cussednsss and general
unreliable character. IL lakes occa-
sion to heap tsify in uns.iuted guam
titles upon him, assuring its readers
that the great mas OF Republicans
and democrats unite in demand
ing his candidacy. The Star is gem
orally known a. u Democratic paper,
although il is not endowed with SUI
ficient prlnciple to stand ny It's own
political organization. Everybody
in Kansas il fully acquainted with
the Leavenworth Times aud the an
linus OF its action undoubtedly lies
in the fact that ID. X. Anthony is not
postmaster of Lesvenwortl.
or course the support Of newspa-
pers such as we have mentioned Is
enough to kill of any mans chances
for office, and this is where they are
taking q mean advantage o! the man
who Is out OF the country. but let u
look at some of the reasons they give
for advancing Mr.. Lincoln. The
Star says Mr.. Lincoln is not contain
mated by the wicked policy Of pro-
lection. This IL at least strange
when we remember that he has held
Office under two Republican presi-
dents who were pronounced in their
advocacy OF protection. He has
also voted the Republican ticket at
every election aud thus gave his ED
dorsement to the protective policy.
III this does not pledge man to the
idea then IL is impossible for him to
become identified with any principle.
The Times says: "After Blaine
Mr.. Lincoln is the stronges! man in
the party. . "Robert 4. Liu-
coin stands far above where his
father stood In the spring of 1850"
And yet i'm 1860 Abraham Lincoln
had been In Congress, place where
his son never has been To show what
there IL in him. The great Lincoln
Douglas debates had given Lincoln
q reputation few men have reached
in the history Of this country.
Abraham Lincoln had arisen from
the people, while his son is hamper
ed, no matter what his abilities are,
with being open to the charge that
he Is the mere son of great man.
Abrahsm Lincoln was the instru-
ment In the hands of God Almighty
that laid low human slavery. There
Is no giant evil or great principle
that calls forth his son at this time.
A precious pair, indeed, are these
two papers. One a rank and rabid
free trader; yea even worse, an Eng
lish tory, a Northern dough face.
On the other hand you have piper
that has always been rooted and
grounded in the principle OF protec-
ton, and its editor fought in the
Union army to boot. One throws of
the mantle Of Democracy whenever
It is afraid to hold up Democratic
principles. The other tagged after
the Alliance q year ago. In this they
are well suited i'm uniting on one
man. But II is hard slam on the
man they have chosen for their We
tim.

A srAsp-oFr FOR PENSIONS.

The dangerously Democratic"
house has already begun to show its
hand in the pension business. We
all know the position Of the Demo-
cratic party on pensions, and We
know what II to be expected Of it at
all times, but we are not prepared to
receive its assumed attitude upon
the question Of the payment Of south
ern war claims with any degree Of
equinamity. We have had presented
tn us the ayowed position OF the
Democratic party in the house on
the subject Of expenditures, rs en-
bodied in a recent resolution. In
that resolution IL is declared to be
the purpose Of the house TO cut of
unnecessary expenditures" The
only house that ever before adopted
such a resolution was noted for be-
ing the most corrupt and the most
wantonly wasteful of any that
preceded it since the foundation Of
the government. 1t was also Demo-
cratic.
On the calendar OF the present
house there are a large number Of
"war claims" presented by southern
people. These claims are for dam
ages sustained ut the hands OF the
Union army during the war. The
scheme IL to pay these claims ut the
expense Of pensions. The number
OF special pension bills in this con-
gress il far below that of any other
congress for years, and the number
Of war claims il correspODdingly
great The scheme Is at least this In
substance: no claims, no pensions.
The Alliance congressman who are
''tired Of the soldier racket" are also
against pensions, aud II they keep on
practicing their uniform rule of yot-
ing with the Democrats, they Will
vote for the payment Of these rebel
war claims and be very parsimonious
about pensions. How do the old
SOluicEs "uo NrhI ihtp thc hbinhce
like this? Is this what they were
after when they selectsdsuch man
a. John Davis in preference to Cot.
W. A. Phillips?
The southern people began the war
and the north only took 1t up when
IL was forced upon them. There Ii q
statement Of holy writ that says she
that taketh up the sword shall per-
ish by the sword" Are the people
OF Kansas ready to sbrogate the
verify Of the word Of God Almighty,
or ameliorate the condition of
people who chose war as their por-
ton and then got beat at their own
game? 1t requires no extraordinary
learning or perception TO answer
these questions.
We can have no sympathy for
those men who went into this scheme
of voting for their enemies expect
ing them to reward them for II by
laying down principles and ideas
they have contended for all their
lives and even shed their own blood
to substantiate, but il is a warning
for the faithful ones and the ones
who are not strong in the faith to
bend their energies anew toward
keeping their friends in power.
The Republicans had q "billion
dollar congress" to which they can
ever point with pride, regardless Of
its enemies, the adherents OF the
dangerously Democratic" congress.
IL you don't want the rebel war
claims paid and II you do not want
our pension laws abrogated see to 1t
that you vote next fall, not for "re-
formers" OF doubtful and demsgogi-
cal antecsdents, but for those you
know will act for you because Of the
party to which they owe their cleo
ton.
