man, whatever his politics may be, whose
attention is called 10 it. What had Mr..
Cleveland TO do with Mr.. Fosters failure2
Absolutely nothing. Mr.. Foster,
in the statement he published,
giving the cause of his failure,
did not hint in the remotest degree that the
administration of Mr.. Cleveland had any
thing to do with it, He said that his
failure was due to the stringency of the
money market, and that the stringency
was owing to "a lack of confidence in the
ability or capacity of the government to
maintain gold payments" This lack of
confidence was apparent when Mr.. Foster
was Secretary of the Treasury. Gold was
was going out of the treasury during
the whole period that he was
at the head Of the treasury
department, and it was a question
whether he would be able to maintain the
gold reserve intact until the end OF the
Harrison administration. 1t is probable
that Mr.. Fosters private business was in
a shaky condition before he retired from
the treasury. Secretary Carlisle has
been trying to do just what Mr.. Foster
tried to do, namely, meet all demands for
gold without permitting the gold reserve
to be encroached upon to such an extent
as to cause uneasiness in financial cir
Giles.
Who is responsible for the lack of con
fidence in the ability of the government
to maintain gold payments? Surely not
'the Cleveland and Carlisle democracy
as the New York Press asserts. The
cause of the outflow of gold is believed to
be the Sherman silver purchase law, and
that law was enacted by a republican con
gress and signed by republican Presi-
dent.
1t is a source of satisfaction that there
are comparatively few newspapers in the
country that have so little regard for
truth and fairness as the New York
Press. There are some others, however.
They do not hesitate to try to mislead
their readers. They seem to think they
are not required to deal fairly and
honestly with the public and that they
are justified in making misstatements
and drawing erroneous conclusions from
them to gain a point. Nearly always,
however, the public detects their true
character and has very little respect for
them.

She Likes Nonsense verses.

One Of the committeeman who had the honor
OF dining with the infanta on Saturday even
ing told this story to New York Sun writer
He happened while at the table to show the
intanta picture of herself riding on a mag
nlhcent Tammany tiger. The picture was
called The Lady and the Tiger" The in
fanta caught the idea at once, and turning to
the committeeman she said, with laugh:
70, hope that shall not be like the young
woman about whom IL was written:
There was young lady of Niger
Who went out to ride on tiger.
They came back from their ride
With the lady inside
And smile on the face Of the tiger. f"
Even her grave husband laughed as she
reeled of the dOggerel Before the laughter
had subsidized she added to the committeeman:
But have no fear if the smile of the tiger
is as pleasant as that of the mayor who has
been so courteous and polite"
On the day the princess came up the harbor
ana first went aboard the Dolphin, she hap
pened to see one of Nast's cartoons of The
Lady and the Tiger" with the nonsense verses
written below. She was so amused by the
lines that she committed them to memory.

iuE the campaign they VIII NOS make

issues. They viii attack Gov. McKiuley's
administration, which is claimed to be
the most scandalous that has been known
in Ohio FOR years.
Quite a number Of scandals have
cropped ont for which he, it is said, is
responsible. One Of his appomtecs is said
TO be short in his accounts $1,000 His at
torney general was compelled to resign on
account Of charges against him. There
has been discraceful mismanagcment in
the pcnitentiary and the asylums, accord
ing to published accounts of the affairs
of these institutions. 1t is unnecessary
to enumerate other scandals, the
foregoing being enough on which
TO base a vigorous campaign against the
governor.
1t is said by the governors friends that
he'is not responsible for the appointment
of the officials who have brought disgrace
upon his administration, but he permitted
Senator Sherman to name the officials be-
cause the senator was a candidate for re-
election as senator and needed all the help
he could get to succeed.
Senator Sherman, it is said, filled the
offices with his henchmen. They helped
him, but it has been pretty clearly dem
onstrated that in Ohio henchmen are sell
dom good business men or good officials.
If Gov. Mckinley had made appoint
ments to suit himself he might have
avoided the scandals 1t is of no use
now, however, to say what he would have
done had he been free to do as he pleased.
The stubborn fact is that his administra-
ton is one his party is not proud of, and
it will be a hard matter to get out
the full republican vote for him. The
situation, therefore, for democratic sue
cess is excellent 1t is pretty safe to say
that the crop of scandals the Mckinley
administration mas developed is a heavier
burden than the governor can carry and
win

Prospeots OF Tariff Legislation.

1t is not at all unlikely that under the infu-
ence of the administration bill to repeal the
silver purchase law will be pushed in ahead
OF the tariff in which case the conclusion of
the latter may be greatly delayed. But even
without making much allowance for the silver
question it is very improbable that a tariff
bill can be reported to the House before De
cemberfor passed by both branches of con
gress before April or May. OF course, greater
expedition Is within the bonds of possibility
but the history of tariff legislation. in 1888 as
