Tho Honor of Thieves.

San Francico Examiner: 1t is not to
be expected that men who have been
engaged for years in bribery, ballot-b box
stu6ing and every species OF public
crime ahould be able to remain psrman-
emily in touch with the standards OF
honor observed by gentlemen IN private
life. tits not arrange, therefore,, that the
political managers of the Southern Pacif-
ic should have resortsd to weapons OF the
sluma in an attempt to injure Mr.. Budd.
The fact that the Post should have pub
lished yesterday false and scandalous
story about the Democratic candidate
for the governorship can surprise only
those who are ignorant of the fact that,
Mr.. W. II. Mills, the Central Pacific
land agent, is editing that paper during
the campaign. The story has been sur
reptitiousiy circulated by tho Republic
an state central committee for several
days, by means Of anonymous circulars,
bearing not even the name OF the printer.
1t relates to certain blackmailing litigs-
tion which, as Mr.. Arthur Rodgers states
in his letter published in our local COL
umns, resulted in the complete exon
GRAFTON of Mr.. Budd from every charge
which ia now published against him in
connection with it," The suit was con-
cluded neerly tan years ago, and the
records have been public property ever
since. The fact that Col. Burns and
the Southern Pacific literary bureau
have been unable to induce any reput-
able Republican paper to soil itself with
the despicable slander is encouraging
evidence that Republican journalism is
still far above the level to which associ-
alton with unconvicted criminals has
sunk Republican politics.

Reoponing of the Dsputi~a and Senate.
A Monarchist Scare Ignored.
PARIS, Oct. 23.-The chamber of depu.
ties reopened today with a large attend
ance. M. Grousset, who represents one
of the divisions of Paris, moved that
the government inatitute an inquiry
into the plot which, according to Lauto-
rite, was hatched by the Monarchists,
assisted by the late General Boulanger,
to overthrow the republic. The same
deputy also demanded that political am.
nesty be granted to those Imprisoned for
political offenses.
Premier Dapuy said that the Boulsn-
gist affair wes done with, and recalled
Groussst's attention to the fact that the
chamber of deputies had already reject
cd the proposition to grant amnesty to
political offenders.
The order of the day in favor OF the
government was then adopted by vote
OF 315 to 155.
In the senate the president declared
that body formally opened, although

WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-The national
strike commission, appointed by the
president to investigate the great strike
at Chicago, reconvened today in tie
Office Of Labor O3m missioner Wrigh'.
After the last meeting tho members o.
the commission went to their homes TO

gagged in getting il in final shape to re-
port to the president. The sessions are
eecret and no intimation is given es to
nature OF the report. 1t is known, how
ever. that the inquiry will deal with the
strike in such way as to make the re-
port one OF the most valuable contribu-
tions to the literature Of social problems.
1t is said also that the important rulings
recently made by Justice Harlan of the
Supreme court Of the United States in
the Jenkins injunction case, are IN line
with the conclusions drawn from the
Chicago outbreak as to the rights and
limitations OF the strikers. The report

land soon as he returns, and it will re-
main for him to determine as to it's
