light. For instance, it is now quietly
whispered by those who know that the
Cleveland administration intends to
abandon the Sandwich Islands to the
mercy Of the lamb-like natives and the
wolf-like Englishmen In fact, it
seems to be the studied effort, if their
own juniors can be relied upon, to
abandon every foreign policy origin
ated or carried out by the late la
mented James G. Blaine or Benjamin
Harrison in order to show that they
are tormented with stiff back bone to
be discovered from their management
of a weak and uncertain foreign policy.
Not only this but rebel claims the re-
peal OF the federal elections law and
the repeal of the State bank issue tax
are yet pet issues evolved from the
ca binets of misty brains not yet used to
the practice of genuine craftsmanship.
But the real straw which breaks the
camel's back Or perhaps the asses back
OF the Democrats of Minnesota is the
appointments of Grover in the North
Star State. I never recollect in the
history of the State when there has
been so much dissatisfaction over State
federal appointments as there is in
Minnesota to-day. The statement
made by McDermott who was trying to
become superintendent of the railway
mail department. in St. Paul that, he
was endorsed by the Democratic party
Of the State and Doran's reply that
me and Kelly are the Democratic
party'' holds true regarding the spirit
of Cleveland's appointments all over
the country to-day, from the appoint
ments of Indian commissioner at the
suggestion of certain church powers
down to the State appointments, gen
orally controlled by bosses instead of
congressman, the legally elected rep
resentatives of the people. The last
election in New York gave the verdict
of the people upon bossism, Tammany
McShane and the rest and it has no
uncertain sound to- Grover.

James deserted his parents and chill

Strengthened circumstances and barely
managed to subsist. Anyhow, they be-
came desperate and abandoned their
two little grandchildren in the streets
OF a California village. A few DAYS
ago Mrs. Ed James received letter
from lady out there who is caring for

had been abandoned, and how the

poor mother is destitute of means and
her heart yearns for her offspring.
First she intended to send for them if
she could raise the money, but now she
intends going to where they are if
means are provided for her to Get
there. To-day a subscription paper
will be circulated, and it is to be hoped
that sufficient sum will be realized
to enable Mrs James to spend Thanks
giving with her children. There
would be no kicking on the part of a
single taxpayer if the county poor
fund was drawn on for a limited sum.
The county certainly should assist in
this matter.
M. S. Rutherford, the real estate
man, tells a good one on Jim Ward.
Mr.. Rutherford had arranged for the
sale of a section of land north Of Milaca
to Minneapolis parties and he took
Jim along to point out the boundaries
of the tract in question. jim lost his
bearings in the woods and did not
know where he was at. The would-be
became suspicious, the
trade was declared off and Mr.. Ruther-
ford lost fat commission.

Representative Tawdey, Of the First
district, always was somewhat doubtful
about the proper policy to pursue on
the silver question, and he got around
it nicely on the last vote. He had him
self paired with Lawson of Georgia,
who was already paired with Taylor
OF Tennessee. Jim is shrewd enough
to catch them either way. Those law
yers make sharp politicians.

I wonder if Commissioner Lochren
appreciates the fact that the old soldier
is alive, and that he resents the injuries
and insults Of a southern secretary and
his underlings against his old com
rades. There are good many lessons
to be learned from the election.

The Democratic office-holders are
the bluest lot you ever saw They all
have elaborate explanations OF how it
all happened. Local issues, they say,
and a dozen other things besides, but
none of them say it is because the peo-
pie are disguised with the Democratic
party. The ofice-holders would not be
blue if they did not know that it means
that their lease of official pap is not for
all time, but for only four years.

From the Unions Special Correspondent

How about Mckinley for president?
He would make a good one. But it is
to be feared that the politicians will
combine against him as they have COM
bined against Blaine in the past, and
prevent his nomination. u. William Nc
Kinley would sweep the country in 1896.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND has stated his
position again in DO mistakable manner
upon the money question. His reply to
the letter Of Governor Northen, as given
in another column, is as clear and ex-
plicit an answer as could be given. He
only expresses perhaps little more
clearly than heretofore, the principles
upon which he stood when he accepted
the nomination of the Democratic
party to become it's standard bearer.
He Is opposed to the free coinage
of silver by this country, independently,
and although he is friend OF silver, be
believes its best interests and the none
tary interests can best be served by the
immediate repeal of the purchasing
clause OF the Sherman bill Hsis right
when he says that the delay in the pas
sage of the repeal bill in the Senate
should not be attributed 10 the Demo
cratic party. The lesson is obvious. 1t
is that Senatorial courtesy has been ex.
tended far enough and it is now time
for action.

PERTINENT POLITICAL POINTERS.

In telling the Democrats in Congress
what they should do President Cleve-
land is simply minding his own business
and reminding them of theirs.-Chicago
Herald.
Gen. Tom Rosser has broken out
again. lie is now in hot pursuit of Col.
O'Ferrall, the Democratic candidate for
governor of Virginia. Tom is great
patriot-in his way, but his way is
usually calculated to promote the inter
ests of the Republicans. He is one of
the Democratic fools that seem to 90 up
and down and mouth and scribble, Just
as the Republicans like to have them
do The chief aim and end of the Ros-
sers is notoriety, which they mistake
for fame.-Cnattanooga Times
If the silver mon for silver's sake
once combine with the Democrats to de-
feat the federal elections bill, will tho
silver men, also for silver's sake, now
combine with the Republicans to defeat
new tariff bill and the repeal Of exist
ing law concerning federal elections?
This is the next exciting Senatorial
question. Washington Star.

MONEY MARKET TIGHTENING.

From Special to the Washington Post
NEW YORK, Sept 2G.-When the re-
peal of the Sherman act was'thoug ht a
certainty the borrowing and lending
m arket began to improve. 1t has been
said, since the delay in the Senate be-
gan to be felt, that the Improvement in
the money N arket has now ceased The
greatest of the big money lendi rs is
Russell Sage, and this afternoon he was
asked il 1t were true that the lending
market was effected.
Yes" he said, sit is true, and il
the delay continues, or if the present
week passes without repeal, predict
there will be greater caution than ever
necessary in lending and borrowing
money. AT present both parties to the
contract in money transaction are OK.
ceedingly courteous about it. I find
by my own inquiries that the uncer-
tainty over the repeal is the RESPONSE
Bile cause. Just those conditions
that prevailed where money
was tight, and it cost
great deal to get the use of it, are
slowly returning now. If the symptoms
continue to grow as they are now 1
don't see how we can avoid the conse-
quences. Business is now very dull,
but it will be very greatly depressed
if repeal does not soon take place
THE Senate is in grave error, for as
the money market is affected go will
be affected the whole business world
of the country. very much wish tina,

THE railroad robberies on trains east
of Chicago have been so frequent lately
that the authorities are beginning to
tire of the bold interference of the des-
peradoes. Hereafter armed men will
accompany every train hauling express
or mail cars from Chicago to any point
East or South. Winchesters will be
supplied to the train men, and it is ex-
pected that wouldbe robbers will keep
out of range of those weapons in the
future. In the meantime little or

triumphing of tho forces OF law

at work since the time OF the
unfortunate outbreak OF mob VIC
