1t has been frequently asserted BY
those who are familiar with the fruit in
terests OF the United States that Cali
fornia will ultimately raise substantially
all the deciduoua fruits consumed in
this country. The extent to which the
eastern orchards have suffered during
the past twenty years 10 scarcely realized
by those who have not given special at
tsntion to the matter. The eastern
cherry has practically become thing OF
the past. TO say nothing of the whole
sale destruction of the orchards, the
quality of the fruit itself has detsri
Grated until it has become mockery.
Acrid, wormy and without body, this
exquisite fruit has become rather an
aggrsvaUion than source OF enioym ent
to the palate. No wonder that the
plump and rich California OK hearts
should excite furore in the east, and
that the market there should be prac-
tically unlimited. There are extensive
regions of the east where it has besn
found impossible to grow peaches. Even
in NJ ssouri the patience of the orchard-
ists has been exhausted. To cap the
climax the old and reliable peach states,
such as New jersey and Delaware, are

CONGRESSIONAL SCANDALS.

Things have come to q pretty pass in
the United States when senators can
arise in their places in congressional
marble halls and announce that they
have been approached by the bride.
giver. 1t is now these many years since
every body knew that seats in the United
States senate have been purchased by
coin or its equivalent. The first melan-
choly incident of that kind was in the
case of the contest between John w.
Forney and Simon Cameron for . seat
in the senate of the United States dur
ing the first year of Mr.. Buchansn's
administration. That shining light of
the Republican party, the Winnebsgo
Chief, bought three Democratic MEM
bers OF the Legislature, Minssr, Lebo
and Wagonseller, and was elected by
vsnal majority of one. Since then the
infamous precedent has been frequently
followed. 1t is but one step from buying
q seat in the senate OF the United States
to an attempt to buy United States
senator. The individual who sought to
approach General Hunton evidently did
not know his man. OF all senators he
would have been the last that q sensible
person. lobbyist or other, would have
sought with a corrupt proposition.
People who resort to devious and crimi-
nal ways are often struck with judicial
blindness, however. General Hunton is
satisfied that he could have obtained
500, 900 for his vote il he had agreed to
cast il against the tariff bill which is
now before the senate, in course of
amendment as received from the house.
No one who knows Senator Hunton OF
Virginia will doubt for moment that
the affair was precisely az he represented
it. His character for verscity and in
tegrity is too high to be questioned.
No public man in America or anywhere
else has a more spotless reputation than
General Hunton.
We are also told on reasonably cred
ible authority that Senator Kyle OF
South Dakota has been approached by
the bribe-giver, though, in his case, the
figure is much lower. Here are two
cases in which an exhaustive investiga.
ton should establish the fact whether
or no the senate of the United States
has lost its old time august character,
which, for hundred years and more,
has protected it even from the imputs-
ton of scandal.
Truly the present is an unfortunate
era for the dignity OF congressl 1t has
been asserted by no less parsonage
than Senator Coke OF Texas that senators
have been specializing in sugar as the
tariff bill has gone through its various
He even offered to name
the men but was persuaded not to do so.
We will just add that this knowledge is
by no means confined to Senator Coke.
1t is melancholy fact and the indigns-
ton OF the people cannot be too great at
the base betrayal OF their trusts which
has signalized too many member of both
branches of congress.

day of reckoning ahead

APART from the somewhat ponderous
verbiage that, somehow or other, seems
to creep into all his utterances, the pres
ident's speech at the Mary Washington
monument dedication, down in Virginia,

duction. Especially SO when he said
that "a clean and benefcent popular
government must have its source in pure

and moral health are in nothing better
exemplifed than in love and reverence
for motherhood" Mr.. Cleveland never

THERE is NO question OF the fact that

who has abused public trust. He will

has done good thing in initiating and
