A Military Feature for the Fair.

The suggestion OF Adjt. Gen. Douglass,
OF Maryland, that congress appropriate
81 600. 600 20 provide for an encampmeut Of
100000 federal and state troops at the
Columbian fair does not seem TO meet with
much favor from Gen. Schofeld. There is
no doubt that such an encampment would
be a very attractive feature of the fair, but
Sl,0OO,000 would not 60 very far toward
paying the expenses OF it. Adjt. Gen.
Douglass does not say in his suggestion
whether IL IS contemplated that state
troops shall pay their own expenses. If it
is his idea that they shall il would be q
pretty difficult matter to get together SUI
ficient number Of state troops to make the
whole number in the encampment 100000.
Gen. SchOheld, commenting on the sug-
gestion, says that it would be difficult to find
territory near the fair for so large a body
Of men, and that the expense Of preparing
the encampment grounds, providing trans-
portation, maintenance of troops. etc. ,
would Ear exceed the amount Of money that
could, in all probability, be raised for such
purpose.
He also says that the instruction the
troops would get would not be very valu-
able, because the exercises would have to
be confined 10 elementary maneuvers on the
parade ground and marches in review ". And
even the elementary maneuvers could not
be made effective, because in the limited
time the camp would be in existence it
would not be possible TO give commanding
and staff officers the necessary instruction.
Adjt Gen. Douglass suggestion will do
well enough to talk about, but there does
not seem to be much probability Of its be-
ing acted upon tavorably. There would not
be any difficulty in getting the necessary
number OF troops if all expenses we're borne
by the federal government. Each state
could be depended upon for its quota, but
unless Uncle Sam footed the bills It would
be about impossible to get 100000 troops
into camp at the fair

Tweed WORK in Brooklyn.

That the taxpayers In many OF the large
cities are robbed by those elected and ap-
pointed e positions OF honor and trust will
hardly Be denied. One Of the great dir
cultlcs in this country, ana doubtless IN
other countries, is 90 keep dishonest men
from getting into positions that afford them
opportunities for stealing from the people.
The lsss against dishonesty In Office are
Eot enforced a. vigorously as they should
be. The people stand good deal before
thev hand together and demand the punish
men; Of officials who pillsge them.
The grand Jury Of Kings county, New
Nork-the county in which Brooklyn Is
situa;ed-indictei seventy Of the officials Of
that city a day or two ago for getting
money out Of the city treasury on frsudu-
lent claims. II seems that the city sppro-
priated quite large sum
Of money for the Columbian
celebration which took place last October
The officials who had charge OF the prepare
lions rendered bills that are alleged to have
been fraudulent For instance, In one bill
they charged ell, 400 for stands" 1t is
said that the stands did not cost as much as
sS,000. Other bills of like outrageous
character were rendered.
The people Of Brooklyn doubtless have
had reason for a long time to question the
integrity of their municipal government or
they would not have shown such indlgns-
ton at the Columbian celebration swindle.
They may not, however, have been able to
get the evidence Of wroug-doing that would
justify them in taking steps toward pun
tshing the suspected officials. But
it seems that they were able
to get the evidence in the Columbian cele-
brstion affair. They ought not to show the
indicted officials any quarter. They should
prosecute them vigorously, and if they sue
coed il convicting them they should insist
upon having them punished to the full ex-
tent OF the law.
It is astonishing what easy oonsciences
many officials, who are regarded as honest
men, have when handling the public money.
They will allow without question claims in
volving tens of thousands of dollars that
are. in a measure. obviously fraudulent,
SIMPLY because the claims are to be paid out
Of the money of the public. The percentage
Of officials who do not think it wrong in
practice to defrsud the people is remarka-
ely large. Whether the indicted Brooklyn
officials are convicted or not, the action
taken against them will have q selutary
effect Il will be a warning to them and
to others Of their kind that the people of
that city do not intend to be robbed without
an effort to protect themselves,

It is estimated by members OF the New
York Southern Society that there are In
New York about $4,000 southerners, most
OF whom are making fair living. More
than II 900 OF them voted in the late cleo
tion, an increase of 5000 over the vote OF
previous years. Commenting on the south
ern man at the north, the New York Tri-
buRe says; ITO the southerner starting out
in life it is serious question whether he

Recently the MORNING NEWS clipped
from Philadelphia paper and commented
on the following alleged expression by Mr..
Hamilton Disston, the rich saw mauufact-
urer, and owner of extensive real estate
interests In Florida: II trust the demo-
Gratis will give the country free trade, wild
cat currency and anything else that can be
coDcocted TO menace trade and manufact-
urers. Give the democrats opportunity to
legisate against the interests of the country
by all means. You'll see a republican tri-
umph Of astounding magnitude in 1893"
Mr.. Disston has written letter to the
MORNING NEWS, in which he says he never
made such a statement to any newspaper.
And further, he says: 81 do not believe
that the democrats intend TO do anything
which will injure the business interests of
this country. We had four years OF Mr..
Cleveland's administration, and during
which time the country was prosperous. l
believe it to be the duty of every American
citizen to do ell in his 20 wer to strengthen
the hands of the President, no matter
whether he be democrat or republican. and
] for one propose TO do everything in my
power To make the administration Of Presi1
dent Cleveland a successful oue" Mr..
Disston's statem Of purpose is indeed,
gratifying. If other rich republican manu-
fHcturers would do as be says he will, the
second administrator of Mr.. Cleveland
would stand out IN history as marking one
Of the most prosperous eras the country
over had.

The Panama Disclosures.


1t is expected that at the meeting Of the
Chamber OF Deputies in Paris today, there
will be fresh disclosures in the Panama
scandal and attacks upon the government
more virulent than any that have yet been
made. The government, however, seems
TO be strong enough to take care Of itself
The anarchists and socialists are not as
loud-mouthed as they were a week ago.
That is due to the fact partly that the man
who announced he had taken charge of the
public movement that would sweep parlia-
ment into the gutter to-day is now locked
in a prison cell. He will stay there until
there is no danger Of his doing any harm

ents Of the government would like to have
the world believe. III. Andrieux, who pre-
tends TO know a great deal about the
Panama scandal, says that for "the last
twelve years there has not been one single
important undertaking with which the
public authorities have had anything to dc

The action Of the Pennsylvania railroad
in discharging employees merely because
they are union men means much TO the
labor organizations. Heretofore, In a
largo majority of instances, fights between
corporations and labor organizations have
been begun by the union involved striking
the first blow. Lockouts on the ground
that the men we're unionists have been CONF
paratively few, while strikes because OF
the refusal Of employers TO recognize the
unions have been quite frequent. The
Pennsylvania road is one OF the largest and
most powerful railway SYSTEMS In the
country, and if its management has de-
termined to declare and make war upon
organized labor, the chances are that the
struggle will be very costly to those of its
employees who refuse to accept the COM
psny's terms of employment.
