PARTISAN BLINDNESS.

About the most remarkable case OF
deliberate aud persistent partisan
blindness that has ever been exhibited
in this country, IS shown by a glance
at the history OF thaiast three years,
in copnection with the contemporary
statenents OF certain Republican poll
ti<lAns and papers In 1890 the tariff
act was passed and pronounced TO be
IN the most delightful harmony with
the party platform OF issS. But lo'

year came along aud swept out OF
public life nearly every man who was
a prominent advocate OF that measure.

The tone Of the whole utterance, the
statement that much depends upon
the action of those engaged in finan-
cial speculations and business enter
prises," and the intimation to the
people that IF, instead of being
frightened, they are conservative,
and If, instead of gloomily anticipat-.
ing immediate disaster, they contrib
ute their share of hope and steadi-
ness, they will perform a patriotic
duty and at the same time protect
their own interest,"" show that the
purpose of the document is to hum
bug the masses of the voters into the
belief that in some mysterious way
business men themselves are account
able for the paralysis that has fallen
upon credit and enterprise.
This manifesto is particularly
shabby piece Of demagogy. Voters
of common intelligence know very
well that prevailing conditions are
not the fault Of the business men of
the United States. The Harrison
administration turned over solvent
Treasury, an unSnaken credlt, ana
state of unparalleled prosperity to
the Democratic party. Under Re-
publican rule the Treasury reserve of
gold was not allowed to fall below the
500, 600, 900 mark, and there was 20
question as to whether the govern
ment would maintain the integrity OF
It's currency. The party of destruc-
tton has promptly manifested its in
competency by its failure to take a
single decisive step to maintain pub
lie confidence. Its representatives at
Washington have gone from blunder
to blunder until they have alarmed
the whole country. The response.
bility for loss to the people and con-
traction Of business belongs to the
Democratic administration, and 1t Is
folly for the President to try to con-
vince the people that they are the
ones at fault. ,asa.F "~sszlas.. d

Democratic Jayhawkers.

Two months before Commissioner
Raum left the office he was advised OF
fraud suspected with an attorney and
two doctors, members of pension ex-
amining board in New Mexico. He at
once planned an investigation, and that
has been going on ever since in the line
directed by the office at that time. It
has now reached point where it is nee
essary to send out a special force to do
the final work. This is covered by send
ing out Lafferty in charge. 1t is claimed
that the frauds perpetrated in New Mex
leo will possibly show that number of
Mexicans have been placed on the pen
sion roll.
The work commenced about seven
years ago, after one year of the Cleve-
land administration, and has been going
on until about six months ago, when
the matter reached the attention of the
department. No more frauds have been
successfully perpetrated on the govern
ment after that date by the parties sus-
pected of being connected with this COM
bination. There are 5000 claims under
examination. It is necessary to examine
the entire list of claims in order to find
out those not entitled to pensions and
for this purpose the force of six pension
examiners and three surgeons have been
detailed and placed under Lafferty.
It may be of interest also to state that
the wonderful pension frauds discoverd
at Norfolk were discovered by Commis-
sioner Raum, and most of the evidence
secured and used in the prosecution was
secured under the last administration.
The matter was not made public then
for the reason that the case had not been
completed. The present administration
gives it out as it's work, and with the
emphasis that the last administration
was in fault in not discovering the
frauds. In due time, doubtless, the New
Mexico matter will be dumped on the
country in the same way, if it happens
that frauds have been committed.
