The Republicans of Iowa made nc
mistake in electing ex Governor John
II. Gear to the United States Senate.
When the political landslide of 1890
occurred, Mr.. Gear, who was then q
member of Congress- was one of its victims,
But defeat did not daunt him, neither did
it swerve him an iota from the sturdy adj
vocacy of the policy of protection which he
earnestly believes to be essential to the
growth and prosperity of our country. Two
years later Mr.. Gear was again reelected
to the National House of Representatives
and his advancement to the Senate came as
q well meritel promotion. He will be q
valuable member of that body, and one who
will never fail to do credit alike to his state
and to his country.

Loved Tor the Psupsfs Hes Mads.

Our columns this morning contain men
ton Of q gross injustice to brave Maine
soldier, Aaron w. Kelley of Addison. He
was wounded in tine war, suffered 20 years
from gapgcene sore, underwent amputa-
ton of the left leg and was enabled to live
in decent conditions through the aid of a
United States pension. But the "Great Re-
former" came to the throne and he and his
"pull-the- string -I-dance" minister of
the interior decided to suspend this one
legged veteran from the pension rolls. They
hadn't the shadow Of cause for so doing.
They hadn't allowed the brave man the
right of speaking in his own behalf.
There was no question but " hat the man
was in the battle of Petersburg when
wounded that he was good soldier, that he
had lost his left leg above the knee and was
unable to support his family; that he was
face to face with want as the result of fight
ing to preserve the nation. But all these
considerations did not weigh in Democratic
pension balances. Enough that here prob
ably was chance to drop a northern vet
eran from the rolls and they did it. They
took from him his sole means of
support and he has been thrown on the
States bounty. If there is North or South
cantankerous and vindictive spirit that
has not acquiesced in the results of the War
in which he was too cowardly to fight except
with his tongue, he should fall at the feet
of Grover Cleveland and exc.aim hone stly
for once, 81 love thee because Of the north
ern veterans thou hast made paupers.'

A JOURNAL man met Capt. Pierce
Thompson of Southport, at his home few
days ago and was surprised during the con-
versation with him to learn that although his
age is "a years he intends to start his yes
sci again tn, first of March. He COM
menced his seafaripg career at the age of 10.
When he was Is years Of age he was captain
of a vessel. He has been on the water
from that time until the present continually,
except Of course, during some winter sea-
sons. He never has lost man, never has
been shipwrecked or run his craft ashore.
In his early life he was engaged in the bank
fishing, but for the last 20 years has
been in the coasting trade. While in the
fishing business, he never allowed any one
on bis vessel to fish on Sunday. He 10 an
active Christian man and member of the
Methodist church, and on board his vessel
has had scripture reading and prayers
every morning aad a religious service every
Sunday. His son sails with him in the ca.
pacity Of mate. He has family of two
sons and three daughters now living. Capt.
Thompson is q genial, social man, whom
everyone delights to meet and is still hale
and hearty. He proposes to continue his
voyages rs usual and is surprised when
ever anyone intimates that he is to retire.
His record is indeed an unusual one and all
hope that nothing may happen to mar It.

SAME OLD THING.

Sometimes you run across Draln-
spawned, dishrag of thing who be-
lieves absolutely and hopelessly in the
doctrines of the Peoples party but
declines to decorate it with his men,
bership because the leadership is not
up to his standard of responsibility.
We don't know what Popnlists think
of a snipe like that, but we entertain
a private opinion as to what they
ought to think. 1t may be true that
the Populists have been unhappy or
unfortunate in the selection OF lead
ers, but if they have chosen their
principles with discrimination, the
personnel of the of their captains is
matter of minor Importance and
easily remedied. But the thing that
strikes us is the consummate gall OF
the ass who candidly confesses to
every principle, but declines associa-
ton on the grounds of indecency. 1t
is the same old story. Had CHRIST
been born in a palace, there would
never have been a Crucifixion.
