OUR DISTINGUISHED VISITORS.

The Hon. WhItelaw Reid and the Hon.
Chauncey NJ. Depew, who are making a
brief stay in the State, and who will
speak in this city tonight. are typical
Americans. Ii would be hard to find
two persons who in their characters and
careers are more representative of the
best elements of American life and citi-
zenship than these two brilliant and dis
tinguished men. To begin with, they
are good representatives of American
versatility and aptitude for success. 1t
is an American characteristic TO be equal
to every emergency and TO succeed in
whatever he puts his hand to. In other
countries it is supposed to require life
time for a man to succeed In one calling,
and it is seldom that any person achieves
distinction in more than one. The law,
journalism, craftsmanship, diplomacy,
and distinct career, and their lines do
not often cross. In this country n man
who has ability, tact ind perseverance
may achieve distinction In several fields.
Both of our distinguished visitors to- day
have done this. Mr.. Reid had
more than national reputation as
journalist before he entered
active politics. Appointed minister to
France. he began at once to graphic
with difficult questions of international
commerce and ended by proving him
self the equal of the best-trained diplo-
matists of Europe. Returning to ac-
cept the Republican nomination for
Vice president. he has shown in his pub
lie speeches that he possesses the grasp
of statesman and the graces of an
orator. Turning from one career to an
other. apparently without previous prep

Do the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
What administration has built the greatest
number of war ships and spent the most for
coast defenses-that OF Arthur, Cleveland or
Harrison! Y.
: The first bill appropriat,ng money for
modern ships was passed during the last
session of the Forty sixth Congress, after
Garfeld's election, by the insistance of the
Republican Senate. The next Congress
made liberal appropriations. being Repub-
lican. and the Republican Senate favored
the largest appropriations for ships and de-
lenses during Mr.. CleveIand's administra-
ton. Arthur only got under way when Mr..
Cleveland came In. He did little for two
years. but much later. The present admin
istration has expended more money and
launched larger number of ships than
any of its predecessors. The test should
be rather the record of the two parties In
Congress regarding new navy and coast
defenses. The Republicans have favored a
new navy for years. and have voted for all
measures to create one and give adequate
coast defouses.

A letter is published from Mr.. X. G..

they pay in the Fall River mill are more
than double those paid for the same
work in Paisley. He adds:
1t Is the tariff, and the tariff only. that
enables TO pay the wages we do In Fall
River. and should the same be taken of
thread and cotton yarns we would have to
do one OF twO things-we would either have
to arrange with our operatives here to pay

In its anxiety to defend Cleveland's
pension record the Philadelphia Times
resorts to falsehOod. 1t says President
Harrison, during the three years of his
term, has not signed half as many pri-
vate pension bills as did Cleveland.
The facts are these: Mr.. Cleveland,
while President, signed 1,246 private
pension bills and vetoed 524. President
Harrison has signed 1876 and has vetoed
none. Democratic papers will do well
to say as little as possible about their
candidate and pensions.

ONE of our Republican State ex-

law against betting is very strict and
that any person betting or holding

anybody in betting. but the penalty does
not include the loss of the right to vote.
