them something substantial in return"
II Boss Croker and his gang do not like

may make the most Of it.
incidentally Mr.. Hall aims dart ut
higher game. When the TUeod expo
sure came Samuel j. Tilden, "still
smarting under the slight TINT Tam
many had inflicted upon him by pre-
ierrlng Hoffman for governor" inspired
the organization OF the famous commit
tee OF seventy. This organization made
Mr.. Tilden governor and came near
making him President. The comptrol-
Ter held an office OF great importance.
Its incumbent, Connolly, was in the
steal. Mr.. Tilden wished to control the
comptrollcrship. He discovered that
under the law, in the absence Of the
comptroller his deputy could perform
all the duties OF the office. The great
reformer arranged with Connolly to alb.
sent himself and escape prosecution.
Mr.. Tilden made his faithful friend An.
drew II. Green the deputy comptroller,
and Connolly got away.
Mr.. Hall admits that Mr.. Tilden de-
MED the agreement with Connolly, but
insists that the agreement was fact in
spite of the denial In support OF his
statement Mr.. Hall recalls tho fact that
Mr.. Tilden busted himself to have
Tweed extradited from Spain, with
which We had no treaty under which
his extradit!on could be compelled, and
never thought of having Connolly ex-
tradited from France, with which we
did have a treaty under which an en-
bezzler could be brought home.
This is not adding new laurels to the
memory OF the great reformer," but it
deals with the history of very inter-
esting episode in American politics,
and it is worth while TO have the real
history. II Mr.. Hall has not given it

Upon the whole our paper was an at
tempt at conscientious and sclf-respect-
FIJI journalism it addressed itself
seriously to the minds of its readers; it
sought to form their tastes and opin-
ions. ] do not know how much it in
flucnced them, if it influenced them at
all, and us to any effect beyond the cir
Gle of it's subscribers, that cannot be
imagined. even in fond retrospect.
But, since no good effort is altogether
lost, i am sure that this endeavor must
have had some tacit effect: and am
very sure that no one got harm from Il
sincerity of conviction that devoted it,
self to the highest interest of the reader,
that appealed to nothing base, and fiat
tered nothing foolish in him. 1t went
from our home to the homes of the peo-
pie in very literal sense, for my father
usually brought his exchanges from
the Office at the end of his day there,
and made his selections or wrote his
editorials while the household work
went on around him, and his children
gathered about the same lamp, with
their jokes; there were apt to be good

West virriuians Embarrassed.

WHEELING, May 27.-The West Virginia
congressional delegation is confronted with
an embarrassing situation. President Har-
rison gave to that state an extraordinary
amount of patronage, beginning with a
cabinet position and running down through
al the qualifications CT the public service
Now the Democrats in the state naturally
look upon the positions held by the Repub-
licans from West Virginia as properly be-
longing to them. They want West Vir-
ginia Republicans turned out and in every
instance West Virginia Democrat put in
his place. This would involve giving to
the state n great deal more patronage than
is at this time felt to be her just proportion.
But it is very hard for the West Virginia
delegation to make their constituents I'M
derstand this
