ANARCHY.

New York Tribune.
People have been making excuses for
Emma Goldman and the rest of her
crazy fraternity on the ground that they
are too irrational to do any harm in this
country. 1t ought to be true, but un-
happily it is not. The creatures who
have tried to assaSsinate once or twice,
and have publicly justified the Chicago
massacre of policemen, need tight
rein Anarchy has no more excuse for
being in America than the fifth wheel
to coach. Republicanism makes an
archy absurd. In this country Goldman
and her followers have no business to
exist, because their only aim, if they
have any intelligent aim, is to overturn
the social and political organization
under which millions of men and women
obtain well-earned liberty.
Anarchy in this free country is not
merely the stupidest of all stupid blum
ders. 1t is a rebellion against the right
of free people to govern themselves.
1t is wicked attempt to deprive the
millions. working men and women, of
the right to make their own laws, to
protect themselves and to defend them
selves against every form of oppression
by hereditary privilege or by accumu-
lated wealth. Presumably the Anarch-
lists, being capable of 80 many absurd
things, will say that the people have not
the intelligence now to protect them
selves against the domination of wealth.
But anarchy has no such excuse.

PUBLIC OPINION.
ORE TOOTH. PULLING NONSENSE.

MORE TOOTH. PULLING NONSENSE.
Cleveland Leader.
Banker Benedict, President Cleve-
lands New York friend on whose steam
Yacht that much discussed operation
was performed two months ago, says
that one of Mr.. Cleveland's teeth bad
to be pulled and that this was done on
the Yacht to make sure of perfect quiet
and plenty of light and fresh air. The
whole thing, according to Mr.. Benedict,
amounted to nothing more serious than
the work which dentists do every day in
their offices. Banker Benedict would
have done more to hush up the matter,
which he wants dropped, if he had said
nothing about the Presidents case. II
is impossible to make the American
people believe that any man, and least
of ali Grover Cleveland, would have
taken so much trouble to have a tooth
pulled, and then kept the fact that any
dental work had been performed SC
carefully hidden from the public. Ii
would be queer case of tooth pulling
which required light, fresh air, and per.
feet quiet; not to speak of two physl-
clans besides the dentist. 1t is more
than ever clear from Mr.. Benedict's alb
surd statement that the account of the
operation on the Presidents jaw, which
was given by DR.. Hasbrouck in the
Leader, was entirely correct. Fortu
nately, the success of the efforts of the
surgeons to eradicate the morbid growth
appears to have been complete, and, a;
we said the other day, there is nothing
in the story of the whole case which i:
at all inconsistent with the President
enjoyment of good health for an in
definite period.

THE TARIFF HEARINGS.

Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette.
The representatives of the protected
Industries, so far as they have been
heard, have given good reasons in sup
port of the wisdom and beneficence of
the Mckinley tariff. They may not be
able to defend the duties in all cases,
but they will have no difficulty in
demonstrating that the tariff is not
what the Democratic party would have
the people believe it is. 1t is easy to
charge that protection, as embodied in
the present law, is system of robbery
by which the rich are made richer and
the poor poorer, but when it comes down
to details the proof is not forthcoming.
Since the ostensible purpose in de-
stroysng protection and substituting for
it tariff for revenue only is to benefit
the wage-workers by giving them more
work and cheapening to them the neces-
saries of life, the committee should not
fail to invite intelligent mechanics, arti-
sans and laborers to show wherein they
have been injured, or robbed, by the
high duties, and wherein they are to be
benefited by a revenue tariff. If the
wage-workers are being robbed, as free
trade orators contend they are, they
ought to be able to make the fact clear.
We have never yet known of repre-
sentative of labor, either in his own be-
half OF as the agent of trades union,
appearing before committee for the
purpose of showing wherein he or his
fellow workmen has suffered as result
of protective duties in any form. Inas-
much as the whole question of tariff re-
form has been discussed on the assump-
tion that protection is an injury, partic-
ularly to the working classes, it would
seem but fitting that at least a few
witnesses should be called In support of
that allegation. We venture to say,
however, that no such testimony will be
asked for or offered. The reformers will
rely on the free trade theorists and their
own statesmen" to make that statement
clear. The wage-workers will not figure
on that side.

thankful.

LAST year thousands of workingmen
all over the country were not satisfied to
let well enough alone, and, to rebuke the
Republican party for fancied grievances,
they voted the Democratic ticket. Six
months of Democratic times has been
sufficient to convince them of their error,
and this year they are coming back to
the party which believes in America and
American industries. With wages re-
duced or mills stopped entirely and NO
cheering outlook they have come to the
conclusion that tariff reform is not what
it was "cracked up" to be.

1t is proposed to give pensions to su-
peranuated civil officials of the govern
ment, and the proposition is hailed with
delight by Democratic papers, claiming
that such officials deserve as much as old
soldiers. Such claim is unpatriotic and
false. A civil official does not give up
home and family and risk his life in per
lis for his country as did old soldiers.
He sits in an Office, draws a reasonable
salary, and if he has not laid up some
thing against age it is his own fault.
Democrats hail with JOY anything that
will divide up the old soldiers well-earned
rewards.

A YEAR ago we were told that the
State bank tax repeal plank meant
nothing, but it now seems to mean
something, since there is a move to re-
peal the ten per cent. tax and establish
some sort of Federal supervision for the
State banks. The President is said to
be favorable to some scheme of that
nature, and nothing is more probable in
politics than that ere long that tax will
be repealed, opening the way for State
banks of issue. But we will have none
in Ohio, since our Constitution forbids
it, and that is one thing for which to be
thankful.

Holding for Higher Prices.


Pittsburgh National Stockman
There are times when farmers, Just
like men in other pursuits, are a little
too much inclined to hold what they
may have to sell on high market for
still higher prices. This policy perhaps
sometimes proves profitable, but in the
long run is apt to be anything but satis-
factory in its outcome. Just now there
is strong disposition to hold hay for
hoped-for still better prices, notwith-
standing hay Is selling for an unusually
good figure. We do not want to advise
anybody as to specific course In this
matter, but we submit that it is much
better to sell hay for the cash on the
current market than to take chances
land there is certainly much of chance in
the matter) of doing better at later
date There are just few things in
the possession of the farmer which are
now especially valuable, and when he
can dispose of them at what are con-
fessedly good prices he is pursuing
policy which in our Judgment is wise.
If he wants to hold anything at this time
it should be sucff products as are ab-
normally low, and which it would seem
could not go lower.

Let Him Trust to His Own.

The Republican newspapers. which
for several weeks past have considered
it their patriotic duty ''to strengthen
the hands of the President" will not
unlikely find that they have been chief
ly successful in weakening themselves
AT any rate there is no longer occasion
to help him ''out of his hole" 1t is in
deed queer business for Republican
Journal TO devote its efforts to strength
ening the hands of President who is
using his strength and his hands to
drive the knife deep into the vitals of
the Republican party and of the great
principles for which it stands. Better
leave him to the tender mercies of his
own party friends and the mugwumps
who are always engaged with him in
fighting American interests and pros
perity. Mr.. Cleveland is first of all a
free trader. When he has persuaded
Congress to sweep the silver purchases
out Of the way, his energies will doubt
less be concentrated upon an attempt
to overthrow the tariff for which the
Republican party contended last fall
and to break down and to destroy the
industries of the country that are con-
Quoted under the encouragement of the
tariff. Because of the certainty that he
will engage in this wrecker's work hun
dreds of mills have closed their doors,
tens of thousands of workingmen are
idle, and blight and paralysis have
stricken the business of the Nation.
The responsibility for all the harm that
has been done-for all the ruin that has
been wrought-lies directly at the door
of Grover Cleveland, who in 1887 began
the present relentless war upon tine men
who direct our great industries. That
he should desire to persuade the people
that the injury has been done by a sill
yer law prepared and passed by Repub-
licans is comprehensive, but why Re-
publican newspapers should continue
any longer, whether Intentionally or
unintentionally, to help him so to shift
the blame for the consequences of his
own action, and should clear the way
for him to begin to play havoc with the
industries of the Nation, is not plainly
manifest. There is no danger of his doing
anything that will really benefit the
country. Let him trust to his own.

provisions. The majority of the Mexi-
can soldiers We're from the South, hence
a majority of the pensioners are South
ern men, and as many of them were in
the Confederate Army, the anomaly
is presented of men who were in the
rebel army receiving pensions from the
United States Government! Not for
wounds and disabilities received in the
Mexican war, but a service pension,
which is not conditioned on wounds,
disability or incapacity to make liv-
ing; simply the condition of having
borne arms for the country. The total
number now receiving this Mexican
war service pension is 1925 soldiers
and 1882 widows. Thousands of the
former were in the rebel army as pri-
Yates or officers. Among the widow.
are to be found those of a number Of
noted rebel generals The National
Tribune gives the following partial
list:
The widow of Mai. Gen. George E.
Pickett, who commanded a division in
the rebel army.
The widow of Maj. Gen. Gideon J.
Pillow, who commanded a division in
the rebel army.
The widow of Lieut.. Gen. A. P Hill,
who commanded one of the three corps
of Lees army.
The widow OF Maj. Gen. James R.

The widow of Lieut.. Gen. "Stone-
WALL jackson, Lees sblest lieutenant.
The widow of Mai. Gen. Dabney II.
Maury, who was dismissed for going

The widow of Commodore Sidney

in the rebel navy.
The widow of Mai. Gen. Samuel
Cooper, who left the adjutant- generalcy

CoMMANDER-IN-CH CHIEF WEIssERT, of
the G., A. R., in his report read at the
late National Encampmont uttered the
following singing rebuke to this ad-
ministration because of its unsympa-
thetic treatment of soldiers and illegal
suspension of pensions, and also ex-
presses the sentiment of the G.. A. r. on
the subject in forcible language:
Recently we find scores of worthy veterans
some above the age of three score and ten-yes
four score years-many suffering from wounds re
ceved on the battlefield or disease incurred while
in the service of their country, or other disabilities
which are covered by law, cut of from the pension
roll without first making proper investigation
During the past three years some OF those who
were not the friends of the country during thai
mighty contest from 1861 to 1865 have taken ever.
means within their power TO create public sentl
ment against pension laws and pensioners. Un
warranted statements are made against the pen
sion roll. No facts are advanced to substantlatt
the statements made. The pension laws OF oul
country affect the interests OF veterans of varou:
wars, but somehow this indiscriminate taking
away of pensions affects only those who served il
the war against treason and rebellion.
Neither does it (the G. A r. favor any system
that permits those whose loyalty was justly ques
toned to pass upon the merits of veterans who
served honorably in the Union army, or which
takes away or cancels the payment of a pension
lawfully granted, without first investigating the
case, and permitting the pensioner to be heard
which should be done at the expense of the gov
eminent which demands the additional proof. In
such cases, it would be but justice to inform the
suspended pensioner what further steps the gov
ernment demands in the premises. No pension
should be cancelled until the government has
proved it fraudulent undeserying. Action shOulC
be taken to secure the reinstatement of all worthy
veterans who have been dropped or suspended
