SOME GOOD PLUMSLEFT
The President Hasn't Filled All
the Fat Offices.
THE SENATE SOON TO ADJOURN,

A Hard FIgls on For the District of Co.
lumbia Judgeships-A Number OF I'm.
portant Foreign Missions Yet TO he
Supplied.
WASHINGTON, April 10.-The final ad.
iournment of this special session of the
senate seems near at hand, Many sena-
tors are Of opinion that the session will
close by Thursday.
The president has filed large part Of
the important offices and there are not
many places now remaing to which it is
essential he should nominate and the
senate confirm nominees before final ad-
journment. Per haps the offices which
1t is most imperative he should fill prior
to dissolution of the senate are the
judgeships of the newly created court
of appeals Of the District of Columbia.
There are to be three of these judges.
The offices are life ones with an annual
salary of $4,000 each attaching and $500
extra to the chief justice. The struggle
for these offices has been great and con-
siderable pressure has been brought to
bear on the president to induce IN to
select various persons not residents Of
the District of Columbia. There has
also been pressure exerted on the other
side to secure these offices for local men.
James s. Ewing of illinois was warmly
urged for this place, but was given the
Belgium mission instead. The president
also stated to friends Of Benton Hall, of
Iowa and Chicago, that he would not
appoint his former patent commissioner
TO IL IS Office. The outside man who is
thought to have the best chance of Sc
lection is ex-Representative Hemphill of
South Carolina, whose devotion to Cleve-
land cost him his seat in congress. Mr..
Hemphill has served on the District
committee in congress and has become
so well identified with its interests that
there has been comparatively little local
objection to him. Martin +. Morris,
Richard Merrick's old law partner, who
lives in the District, is also thought q
probability for ono Of the places. 1t is
important that the president should
make these judgeship nominations very
soon as the court should organize at once
under the law and confirmation should
precede the judges taking the oath Of
office.
Among the important foreign mis-
sions yet untitled are those to Russia,
Italy, Turkey, China, Persia, Brazil,
Hawaii, Hayti and the Netherlands and
the Argentine Republic. Minister Den
by may be permitted to remain as our
representative to the Flowery Kingdom,
he having been appointed by President
Cleveland originally and retained
through the Harrison administration,
owing TO the refusal Of China to receive
Henry w. Blair as minister.

If the volume of bank clearings may

If the volume of bank clearings may
be taken as true indication, the busi-
ness of the country is larger than ever
before at this season, and improving.
The March total for the 6fty-6ve cities
which have been making returns for
three years or more was $5,377, 100000,
round figures, which was the largest
ever recorded for that month. 1t was
an increase of 23 per cent over the total
for March last year, This indicates
that a Democratic administration is
wholesome.

SAN FRANCISCO is the banner city
for saloons. 1t has one such institu-
tion to every ninety-three persons. Al
bany comes next with one to every 10
persons, and New Orleans one to every
12l persons. In Canton we have one
saloon for every 30 voters. This indl-
Gates that the temperance missionaries
and agitators. who have been at work
for over 80 years in this country, have
still gigantic task before them.

A German of wealth and education,
who has lived in this country for a
number of years, says he is convinced
that most of the suicides of his country
men, both on this side of the Atlantic
and the other, are caused by adulter-
ants in beer that have depressing
effect upon the nervous system and dis
pose the subject to melancholy. The
use of beer that was chemically pure
would, he thinks, produce no such
effects.

sENATon GoRMAN Of Maryland, ais

SENATOR GoRMAN of Maryland, dis
cussed Judge Ricks' decision in the
senate yesterday. Senator German
dissents from Judge Kicks views. The
Senator said the decision undertakes to
decide not only what railroad employees
shall do. but also what they shall not
do. We quote from Senator German:
"Those decisions were the first great
step on the part Of the judiciary to
make serfs OF the men who were em.
ployed by railroad corporations. The
recent judicial decision that railroad
employees might be restrained by an
order Of the court, might bs fined and
imprisoned if they resigned their po

1t ought to be inquired into carefully
by men who had but one motive and
that was to see, while protecting thoin-

be armed with powers as arbitrary as
those of the Car of Russia"

THE Cincinnati Commercial Gazette
is painfully anxious to have the legis-
lature get home as soon as possible, in
order to save the Republican party this
year. Here is one of the comments:
"Why does not the Ohio Legislature
adjourn? If the members persist in
holding over in May, in order to go on
a junket to the Worlds Fair, they will
ruin themselves and greatly iDjure the
party. They should adjourn at once"

SOLVING A MYST ERY
Alleged Reasons Why William
Casper Made Himself Scarce.

Alleged Reasons Why William
Casper Made Himself Scarce.
Facts which have just come to lightseem
to indicate that William Casper, the Sparta
farmer disappeared at an opportune mo-
ment, as 1t is now alleged that he forged
some paper amounting to 5000, using the
name Of his father, George Casper. Will
liam is still missing, and all efforts to find
him have thus far proved futile. II is al.
legged by some parties who claim to know,
that Casper had 5000 with him when he left
his home. A NEws-DEMooRAT reporter
called at the residence of,Casper's brother
on East Second street in this city, today,
and he was informed there that not even
the slightest clue had been learned con-
cerninR CAsper's whereabouts. These al.
legged forgeries are accepted as good
reason for Casper's disappearance.

DO YOU WANT TO CO
TO THE
WORLDS FAIR?
WE WILL GIVE you
A FREE TICK Ell.

Our offer of free round-trip tickets to the
GAR. National Eneampment last year was
SO successful that We nave decided TO repeat
the plan upon larger scale for the benefit
of intending visitors to the Worlds Fair at
Chicago.
Last year hundreds of our readers got
frst-class rouBd-trip tickets from their
places of residence TO Washington and
return by little effort in making up clubs
for THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE.
Our plan worked very successfully
body was more than satisfied. Very many
were able TO visit Washington who wanted
TO do so very much, but telt that they could
not incur the exp nse, aud we gave them an
opportunity which they gladly improved
There was nowhere a single expression Of
dissatisfaction.
We will do the same thing this year
with regard to those who wish to visit the
Worlds Fair. We wiH eiue a frst-eldss
sound-trip ticket from any point in The Uaited
States TO Chicago and return for a club Of
subscribers, pr0p0rtioHdte TO the distGace the
point as from Chicago.
This ticket viii be for the most direct
route between the two places, and il viii have
all the advantages in regard TO the time for
which it will be good. length of stay in
Chicago, speed of trains, etc, that any first
class ticket will have. In bTief, it will be
the best kind of ticket, which viii be a
great superiority, as there viii doubtless be
many tickets offered by various parties
which will be only for very slow trains, in
ferior cars, limited as to time, etc. Our
tickets will ali be for frst-elass fast trains,
aud have every privilege given the best class
Of tickets
The carrying out of this scheme involves
an immense amount of correspondence and
clerical work on our part, and We are now
prepari e a schedule of the sizes Of clubs
which we viii require from different points
We will publish this as soon as completed
which may be some time hence.
In the meanwhile, those who intend to
work for these tickets should begin at once
They can send in their subscribers as fast
they obtain them, notifying us that they
are for a Worlds Fair Ticket" and they
viii be properly credited 10 them. II they
afterward change their minds they can have
the subscribers sent in applied on any other
premium that we offer.
We should very much like TO have those
who expect to get up clubs for these tickets
write 10 US immediately of their intentions.
as this will help ms in raking up our
schedule. We will send them any number
of sample copies they wish to show friends
and acquaintance in the work Of soliciting
subscribers
Remember, all names sent to
count on this offer must be yearly
subscribers at ST each. No SUBJ
scriptions sent prior To April 4
Will count OH this offer.
We ask all our friends who want TO go to
Chicago TO 90 to work at once. They can
easily secure round-trip ticket by little

OUR CARTOON.

Our cartoon expresses the general senti-
ments Of the veterans. They have not the
slightest opposition to or fear of any honest,
impartial investigation. On the contrary.
they will welcome it. They want the coun-
try to know every detail and feature of the
pension system. Nowhere is there the
slightest thing that they dread to have the
fullest light of day turned upon. They have
the utmost confidence that the more the
country is informed upon the subject of
pensions the better will it be satisfied that
every dollar that now goes out of the Treas
ury in payment of these has been well
earned, and that vastly more, instead of
vastly less, is due the men who saved the
Nations life, and their dependent ones.
The country has been flooded with the
ISLANDERS aud lies Of the pension-haters.
Nothing more villainous ever polluted the
columns of papers and the mouths of public
speakers than has been said about the much
deserving men who are recipients of PEN
sions. Now we demand an investigation;
we demand that The whole story be told
all the facts he laid before the people. We
do not care how the investigation is made
or by whom, 80 long as the inquiry is made
full and completssand by men as to whose
ability and lruthfulness the country can
have some mssdrs Of respect.
Turn on the light, President Cleveland
and gentlemen of The dominant party. We
are entirely ready for all that it may reveal.
