CRITICIsING THE ADMINISTRATIONS
A Washington dispatch OF the Goth
ult. says that men OF all parties are
severely criticising President Cleve.
land and Secretary Gresham for their
absence from public duty in this criti-
cal period of our country's existence.
Aside from the tumult within our Dor
ders, important questions affecting
foreign interests are under considera-
ton at the State Department. The
action Of the British in Bluefields and
conduct of the Nicaraguan govern.
ment are matters of very great i'm
portance at this time, and the State
department is receiving dispatches
frequently on the sub ject, and Secre-
tary Gresham and the President are
absent and have been absent for a
week, out OF reach OF the telegraph,
and will probably be away for nearly
another week. The Samoan question
is also one OF supreme Importance at
this time. Developments are daily
expected in Hawaiian matters; but
there is no one now in Washington
authorized by the administration to
pass upon any OF these questions.

The Oreg0nian may be a great
newspaper, but when it ignores in its
local columns such prominent
speaker as Claggert, who addressed Il
large assemblage on the plaza Monday
night, and yields two columns OF space
to a Republican harrangue in one Of
the suburbs OF the city, its character
for fairness and impartiality suffers,
and it initiates the ostrich which when
closely pursued, hides its head in the
sand IN the hope that it may thus
render itself invisible to its enemies.
