MANY of those papers which assailed
the treaty with Russia. including the
Louisville Courier Journal, have seen a
great light since the facts werc made
known. The Russian treaty, they find,
was originally negotiated by Secre tary
Bayard, under Mr.. Cleveland, was modi-
fed by Republican Senate and Presi-
dent SO as TO remove the Objectionable
features, and is now all right. One of
these days Democratic papers will learn
that General Harrison never made or
agreed to a treaty which did not protect
the rights ola citizens or maintain the
dignity of the United States.

BEFORE the appointment of Mr.. Burke
and while the Sentinel was engaged in
the work of encouraging the faithful,
1t gave hope and buoyancy to many a
Democrat in over four hundred cities
which have free-postal delivery by de-
claring that the order of General Har-
rison putting the route carriers under
the cover of the civil-service law would
directly be revoked. Now comes the
intelligence that nothing of the sort

THE excellent Democrats who are
fighting Carter Harrison, the regular
Democratic candidate for Mayor of Chi
cago. have discovered that the Demo-
cratic heelers now in the employ of Mr..
Harrison have put five thousand bogus
names upon the voting lists. Last fall,
when the heelers were for Cleveland
and reform, these excellent Democratic
gentlemen were not indignant because
they stuffed the voting lists with ten
thousand doubtful names. The truly
good Democrat can never learn how de-
PRAYED his party workers are until he is
forced to take sides against them to
save a city from pillage.

THE case of MIR. Currie, of New York,
whom the fresh and jealous Quincy,
before he was himself confirmed, made
consular agent TO Yarmouth, Nova
Scotia. upon the letter of the Presidents
private secretary, and who was dis-ap-
pointed by Mr. Cleveland when he
heard about him, is still attracting the
attention of the press. Currie would
have been all right and would now have
been on his way to Nova Scotia had not
a newspaper man met Assistant Post
master-Renera Maxwell, the anti-Hill
headsman. and told him that the ap-
pointee is Hill machinist." Thereat
Mr.. Maxwell rushed to the President
with the story and he at once recalled
the appointment. The affair has made
the excellent Mr.. Quincy very unhappy
and the unfortunate Currie wretched, rs
he was prepared to go to his place at
once.

ABOUT three-quarters OF century

Can it be possible that Senator Voor-
hees is trying to Burke Mr. Cleveland
politically? A motive might be found
in the Senator's openly expressed dislike
of Mr.. Cleveland during his first term,
and his determined opposition to the ex-
Presidents denomination. If he wanted
to shelve Mr.. Cleveland and sfspti.er
him politically it would be in accord
ance with the Senator's methods to do
it by indirectiOn, and what more effect
i've way could there be than getting the
President to make unpopular appoint
ments9 Every such appointment is a
twist in the Presidents windpipe, and
shortens his political life without leav-
ing any mark of violence upon HIM. If
Senator Voorhees, can induce Mr.. Cleve-
land to make few more appointments

THE STATE TREASURY.
The State Treasurer has mailed TO the
county treasurcrs throughout the State

The State Treasurer has mailed TO the
county treasurcrs throughout the State
a circular letter, in which he says:
On the lst day of April the State Treas
urer Is expected 10 paw In New York, on
account OF bonds of the State maturing on
that day. the sum of $40 900; and for inter
est maturing same day. S5l.2SL5O; total,
SSS1.5S7.50 The quarterly salaries. together
with maintenance needs OF the benevolent
institutions maturing at the same time. TO
say nothing of additional demands upon
the State treasury, Will add thereto at
least $500. COO. The credit and good name
of the State is involved in the payment OF
all these obligations. and they can only be
met through the assistance of county treas
urers. I therefore appeal for this needed
assistance to the treasurers of the various
counties, etc.
On the strength of this showing the
State Treasurer appeals to county treas
urers to make advance payments of
taxes to him, thus replenishing the
treasury and enabling him to meet the
States obligations.
The circular discloses a disgraceful
state of affairs, and one for which the
Democratic party is wholly responsible.
The people of Indiana paid more taxes
last year than ever before. and if the
State finances had been properly man
aged during past years there would be
large amount of money in the treasury.
Instead of that, it is empty. and the
State Treasurer says that 100000 will
be needed to meet maturing obligations
and current expenses. This condition
of affairs is the direct result of Demo-
cratic financiering during the las. ten or
twelve years, which persisted in creating
deficit year after year, borrowing
money to pay current expenses and
accruing interest, without making any
provision to pay debts when they became
due. except to borrow more money. This
is not the fault of the present State
Treasurer. but of the policy pursued by
his party for many years past.
