Mr.. CLEVELAND in vetoing the
seigniorage bill starts out in his
old strain of hostility to silver then
he says he might forego his own
convictions and sign the bill but
for his patriotic regard for the best
interests of the country; he pleads
that to raise the suspicion that we
are returning to silver would check
the tide of prosperity which he
sees setting toward our shores; he
finds the Bland bill collection of
blunders. The document seems
to our obtuse intelligence both la
bored and lame. The Presidents
attitude toward silver and toward
this bill is not the attitude of the
masses of Democracy, who are
not committed to his money policy.

THE PRESS.
FRIDAY, JUNE 1.

That strain ed relations existed be-
tween the President and some of the
Democatric Senators has been common
talk for good while. Senator Vest OF
Missouri has just given conclusive proof
Of the truth of the story SO far as he is
concerned In letter to constituent,
who had asked him to use his influence
to procure him consulship, he writes,
AFTER the President gave me to dis
tinctly understand that he did not de-
sire my advice in regard to appointments
in Missouri, it was simply impossible
for me, without FORGETTING my self re-
spect, to approach him upon that sub
ject" And further: When Mr.. Cleve-
land deliberately made appointments
at Kansas City, which no one in our del
egation had recommended, and did so in
the most offensive manner, made up
my mind to leave public life rather than
to sacrifice my self respect by approach
ing him upon the SUI ject of patronage"
Evidently the relations between Mr.. Vest
and the President are not merely
strained; they are broken.

ON TOP OF MT. ARAFAT.
Nothing but Snow Covers the Peak Where
The Ark Was Moored.

"Mount Ararat has two tops, few
hundred yards apart, sloping, on the
eastern and western extremities, into
rather prominent abutments, and sepa-
rated by snow valley, or depression,
from SO to 100 feet deep.n Thus, in the
Century for June, write Messrs Allen
and Sachtleben, the two young Ameri-
cans who made a bicycle tour round the
world.
The eastern top, on which we were
standing, was quite extensive, and 30 to
40 f ct lower than it's western neighbor.
Both tops are hummocks on the huge
dome of Ararat, like the humps on the
back of camel, on neither one of which
is there vestige of anything but snow.
There remains just as little trace of
the crosses left by Parrot and Chodzko,
as of the ark itself. We remember the
pictures we had seen in our nursery
books, which represented this mountain
top covered with green grass. and Noah
stepping out of the ark, in the bright,
warm sunshine, before the receding
waves; and now we looked around and
saw this very spot covered with perpetu-
al snow. Nor did we see any evidence
whatever of former existing crater,
except perhaps the snow-filled depres-
sions we have just mentioned. There
was nothing about this perpetual snow
field, and the freezing atmosphere that
was chilling us to the bone, to remind
us that we were on the top of an extinct
volcano that once trembled with the
commissions of subterranean heat.
1.-The view from this towering height
was immeasurably extensive, and al
most too grand. All detail was lost
all color, all outline; even,the surround
ing mountains seemed to be but excres-
cent ridges Of the plain. Then, too, we
could catch only occasional glimpses,
as the clouds shifted to and fro. At one
time they opened up beneath us, and re-
vealed the Aras valley with it's glitter
ing ribbon of silver at an abysmaI depth
below. Now ana then we could descry
the black volcanic peaks OF Ali Chez
forty miles away to the northwest, and
on the southwest the low mountains that
obscured the town of Bayazid. Of the
Caucasus, the mountains about Erzerum
on the west, and Lake Van on the south,
and even of the Caspian Sea, all of
which are said to be in Ararat's hori-
zon. we could see absolutely nothing.
