Warren English Assaults Comma ore
Quite in "A Saloon.
There is bad blood between Warren English
and Commodore Isidor Cutie, and had il not
been for the interference of mutual friends
serious harm would probably have come to
English on last Saturday afternoon. The
two men were seated in Periera's saloon
talking politics. English's brother, William,
has gone TO the Chicago convention to hollo
for Hill, and Warren is a very strong sup
porter Of Hill for President Warren was
drinking considerably, and talking more.
Cutie let him talk until il came to ferye o I
outburst in favor of Hill.
"Oh," said the commodore, "he is ma
chine politician"
What do you mean by that % demanded
English.
Just what say" returned the other.
well" cried English. raising his voice to
a high pitch. you're a liar. a man that Is
a machine politician is scrub and -.
and you're another If you say so !"
'0h, you're a - fool, +" said Cutie, In
disgust, rising to take his departure.
You're -" rOared Mr.. English, and
in second the contents of his beer-glass
were over Cutie. Like fash Cutie seized
the bottle which lay on the table between
tho two men and would have Drained his
lHsulteT had not friends seized him
The commodore IS rather advanced in
years, but be proved himself a slayer, and
he veinly tried to reach the younger man.
English jumped about like hen on a hot
griddle, and poured the most insulting
language on the devoted head of Cutie.
Had the men come together English would
probably have had the better of the contest
being larger and much younger man. He
was requested, however, 10 take the outside
Of the house, and hostilities for the nonce
were stopped English seems to be very
valiant warrior 50 far as old and blind men

The claim made recently in San Fran
cisco that real estate agent had a half
ton of boom literature printed that cost
him less than $40, while the freight TO St.
Louis upon it cost $40 90, and therefore
the precious railroads ought to be cursed
lis an absurdity. A half ton of the very
cheapest paper upon which such circu-
lars would be printed would cost not less
than five cents a pound, or $50. Suppose
the paper TO have cost that sum, the half
ton at a reasonable estimate would repre-
sent thirty-four reams, or 1890 sheets.
Any one with thimbleful of brains
knows that no such amount of paper
could be decently printed on two sides
for less than Sl50. It is likely, therefore,
that the story about the half ton of
printed matter is g hollow one. But if
accepted at the value of the complainant,
it cuts no figure in the matter of rates for
carriage several thousand miles. II the
job cost nothing. the logic of the COM
plant would be that the railroad should

HERETOFORE there has been attempted
some concealment of lottery advertising
III this State; some attempt has been
made to escape the law by devices that
might prevent conviction. Now, how
ever, leading San Francisco journal has
thrown off all disguise, put away all de-
vices to whip the devil around the stump,
and boldly advertises a great lottery
scheme precisely as it is advertised in
Louisiana papers, where there is no legal
prohibition. Yet the law of this State
emphatically forbids lottery advertising
and af1ixes penalty for it's violation.
just how newspaper claiming to be an
exponent of public opinion, conserva-
tor of morals and the defender of law and
orderly procedure, can reconcile its pro-
LESSONS to such open defiance of a plain
provision of the criminal code passes
comprehension. However, it is not more
puzzling than the effort to understand
why officials are blind to the violation Of
the law, and why it is that neither police,
prosecuting officers or Grand Juries ever
become aware of such fragrant disregard
OF the statute. The Chinaman who deals
in ten and five-cent lottery tickets, and
whose whole scheme does not foot up
so much as one of the lesser prizes
IN the Louisiana swindle, is periodically
bounced upon and punished, but the
Caucasian, who commits the greater
crime, is not SO much as warned. Kiss
ing certainly goes by favor.

EX-PosTAIAsTER-G GENERAL JAMES ex-
presses the opinion that if Mr.. Cleveland
is nominated the campaign will be one of
cleanliness and not of personalities.
That ought to be the wish of all lovers of
Tree institutions for every campaign. The
contest that is waged with personalities
for weaponry is one unworthy a self
governing people. Electing a President
is one of the offices of administering the
affairs Of a nation, and should be con-
Quoted purely upon the lines of cleanli-
ness, decency and craftsmanship, of
which latter every American citizen
ought to be in some degree capable.

The proposition to adopt a new basis
for representation in National Republican
Conventions is good one, because it
takes the vote cast for the last presidential
candidate as the standard. Now, the basis
is the representation of the State in Con-
gress. But in a political body the true
measure of reprepresentation is the
strength of the party in the district rep
resented. This is the principle upon
which nearly all party conventions are
called inside of State lines, and it will an
ply as well to national party assemblies.
Under the new plan the States contribu-
ting least to party strength will have least
representation, while under the present
system they may have the greater number
of representatives. That is to say. each
State under the proposed plan will have
delegates in the National Convention pro-
portionate to the party vote. Thus, in
stead Of Alabama having Y in the Mime
apolis Convention. she would have cast
but 10 votes, while Pennsylvania repre-
sentatiyes would have been increased
from 60 to IS. Texas, for instance, with
1922 Republican votes, would not be
able to overbalance Massachusetts in the
party convention with her lS3, S92 Repub-
ican votes. Maine gave General Harri-
son in 1888 rs, 734 votes and six electoral
votes, while Alabama, which cast for him
1857 votes less, gave him no electoral
votes, and yet in the Minneapolis Con-
vention Alabama out-voted Maine by
two. 1t would seem that every intend
ment of justice and suggestion of good
policy would demand the adoption of the
proportionate system, instead of the pres
ent Congressional basis, because a politi-
cal convention does not represent State
population, but party adhesion.

PRESIDENT HARR1soN,s CAPACITY

The Cleveland Leader well says that
President Harrison has exhibited broad
and powerful grasp of mind, the
ability to seize hold of questions and
the firmness to maintain positions. That
he has taken an active part in the bust
ness of every department, and made him
self familiar with the interests intrusted
to each Secretary. The Leader adds that
while the Secretary Of State was sick last
March the President conducted the most
important negotiations in the Behrinp
Sea controversy. 1t was he who penned
the concise and defiant ultimatum toward
the end of that month that brought Lord
Salisbury to accept a naodus v5ve,sdi.
These Rotations by the Leader are
well-known matters OF fact. They are
recalled not to detract from the credit due
to any officer of the Government. but
rather to prevent the withdrawal O
credit from President Harrison that is
justly due to him, and which attempt has
Deen made IN some quarters under the
plea that the President was taking to
himself credit due to his counselors. So
far from this being true, all his Cabinet
officers bear testimony to the modesty OF
she man and the fine sense of Justice
that actuates him in all his actions.
In President Harrison the country has.
chen, an Executive of exceedingly broad
grasp; one capable of handling any
public question relating to his Office or
the several departments; man who
makes himself familiar with details of
duty, and who has the capacity and cour-
age to take hold of any work in which
the arm of Government is to be exercised.
