Trouble for oen. Greely.

Gen A. w. Gresly stands q pretty good
chance OF being called 20 account for
q violation Of the general orders OF
the war department The part Of
the orders that, il is claimed. he
has violated provide that no officer, without
being called upon BY proper authority, shall
solicit or recommend any action by
members Of congress for or against legislA-
tion pertaining 20 military affairs
Il seems that Gen. Greely does not want
the new military bureau Of information
placed under the jurisdiction Of the adjutaut
generals Office, and he wrote a letter to the
Secretary Of War with respect to the matter,
and also 10 members Of the COMMITTEES on
appropriations. He suggested to the Secre-
tary Of War that il the chief signal officer
could not be placed at the head OF the
bureau the secretary himself should retain
control OF It until Gen. Greely could get
his friends Ia congress to take an interest in
the matter. To the members of the COM
mittee on appropriations he suggested that
no appropriation for maintenance Of the
new bureau be made until the question Of
the right of the chief signal officer TO con-
troll it was definitely settled.
Such unusual conduct on Gen. Greely's
part was very naturally resented by the
adJutant general, who promptly brought
the breach Of discipline of which Gen.
GreeIy is guilty to the attention Of the war
department And in the letter in which he
did SO he INDUCED In some rather caustic
comments on Gen. Greely's conduct.
1t is hardly probable that the offsnse with
which Gen. Greely is charged is serious
enough to justify the convening Of a court
Of inquiry, but it is extremely probable that
Gen. Greely will be severely rebuksd, since
1t is claimed that his offense amounts to a
threat of insubordination.
1t is charitable TO presume that Gen.
Greely did not intend to violate any rule,
regulation or order. The chances are that
he is not as we'll informed about the general
orders OF the war department as he ought
to be. Nevertheless, ignorance is not an ex-
cuse that will have much weight with his
superior officers. It Is his duty to be ac-
quainted with the orders of the war depart
ment.

party for trip into the woods One day when
several ladies had gone with the party thev
were lett on shore to amuse themselves while
the gentlemen went on the lake. A gaunt, tall
YANKEE woman appeared shortly. She was
bright. just as all yankees are in their native
condition. but her ignorance was dense enough
to put native of Madagascar to shame She
had even worked In one of those factories down
there on the coast, but that had not improved
her education. This was part of the dialogue
between the summer boarders and the back
woods lady:
I'm democrat"
Very sorry. We are republicans. and some
OF us come from Washington"
That didn't seem to make the least impres
sion.

''I dunno much about him. He knows about
it. Who is hei"
And that woman actually did not know that
Cleveland was President

The ladies were getting very much interested
In the specimen. At last they chorused, "Of
course You have heard of Mr.. Blaine?" Not
bit OF 1t. And her face was even blanker than
before, while the Washington woman collapsed
into silence at the apparition of the woman
from Maine who did not know Blaine. Then the
woman turned inquisitor. where did you

It was look of superb surprise on the Maine
face, and she retired for meditation. But no
one wants to mention to this Nebraska senator's
wife the ignorance OF the wild and woolly West.

The Coal Roads in a rangle.

1t looks very much as If the bill passed
by the New Jersey legislature to legalize the
combination between the Reading, New
Jersey Central and Lehigh Valley railroads
would not be a valid act even II 1t
should receive the signature of the
governor. 1t is charged that 1t
cost the parties interested in the
bill as much as $500.0O0 to get it through
the legislature, and this charge is causing,
throughout the state, q great deal of COM
ment unfavorable to those who voted for
the bill. But the charge Of bribery is not
what Is troubling those interested In the
bill. 1t is the doubt whether the governor
has authority to sign the bill. the legislature
having adjourned.
In 1880 an act was passed which permits
the governor to sign a bill at any time
within thirty days after the final ad djourn-
ment Of the legislature. The constitution
of the state, however, provides that bill
to become a law must be signed before the
legislature adiourns. 1t has been the
custom for years for the governor to sign
bills at any time within thirty
days after adjournment, and they
naNo O0oh AcCOAhAASU DO laws OL tu6 sbaCe,
but it is now asserted by good lawyers that
bills signed under such circumstances are
not valid. An act Of the Legislature cannot
change the constitution Of the state.
II this is the right view Of the matter the
$500, 600 spent to legalize the deal OF the
coal roads, If, in fact, any money was spent
for that purpose, was thrown away. The
men who got the money will not return
it even though it becomes evident that the
service they rendered was of no value. And
no one will sympathize with the managers
Of the coal roads combination because,
whether the object they have in view is
good or bad, they adopted methods to ac-
complish their object that are deserving of
the ssverest condemnation.

Working SacratIv.

The MORNING NEWS has a number of
times recently called the attention Of demo-
Gratis to the necessity for organizing. 1t is
well understood that the promoters Of the
Peoples party are at work In almost every
county. They are working secretly, and
therefore. II is impossible 10 form a correct
opinion as 70 their progress in making con-
verts. 1t is believed, however, that they
are meeting with considerable success
1t is certainly time that democrats were
showing more activity. The Peoples party
has very little, IL any, foothold in the
towns. It Is in the country it expects to
find support. and it is there that it is now
putting forth extraordinary exertionA I'M
less the democrats get to work and counter
act the third party influence they will have
a great deal Of hard work later on to win a
democratic triumph.
1t must not be overlooked that the Peo-
ple's party invites the cooperation of the
black voters, and there 10 no doubt that if
1t undertakes to make a campaign IN this
state it will strive to organize the blacks and
get the benefit OF their votes. II it should
succeed In getting the support Of the blacks,
it might make a strong showing at the polls.
The thing for the democrats throughout
the state to do is to organize and prepare
for contest. The MORNING NEWS has
never wavered in its support of democratic
principles and the Democratic party, and
its ADVICE at this juncture should be needed.
While some of its contemporaries were dali
