CLEVELAND AS A FINANCIER.

1t is not SO long ago-Some seven
land, then president OF the United
States, Was greatly perplexed over the
accumulation of money which he found
in the treasury when he took the Office.
His Republican predecessors were held
UP to The indignant gaze of the whole
people for the stupid folly of holding a
large amount of cash for emergencies,
when the whole matter could be cor
rected by Democratic hnanclering. Since
March, '92, We have had a sample of the
latter. The surplus has evaporated all
right enough, but the rule has been such
pronounced success that it kept up a
sort of automatic motion after the money
was all gone, and the president, unable
to stop the thing, finds 1T necessary to
issue 100 millions in bonds to keep things
running, before his term is half out.
Surely his plan for depicting the treasury
has been a sure winner.
One feature of it, however, is not so
favorable. The Republicans had been
steadily reducing the debt every year
since it was contracted, which. of course
is stopped by this necessity for going
deeper in. 1t makes some difference to
the people whether the interest is grow
ing less under Republican rule or greater
under the Cleveland policy. Voters will
look at these things Notwithstanding the
guarantees and assurances of presidents
and party platforms.
Mr.. Cleveland is said to be incubating
a new financial plan now. He will. nc
doubt, see that it has no back action at
| tachment, and that it has no reference
TO, or connection with the Republican
policy which the people yet seem 81
willing TO endorse.

AMERICAN TITLE
From the New YORK Tribune.

from the New hofA 4IIOuusr
Say" said the Kicker" when he
gas in an unusually critical mood,
don't tell me that we Americans do
not like titles. Why, hang it, we dote
on titles. Just see how many of the
rich girls go cunning for titles abroad
and are willing toaecept broken-down
specimens of humanity for husbands
simply because they call themselves
dukes or marquises or count or what
not. Only recently young Irish earl
came here. He was absolutely with
out distinction. but a paragraph got
into one of the papers about him, and
simply because he was an earl people
began to pour invitations upon him for
dinners and things. He couldn't
understand it. OF course he
couldn't. but can. He had
title. 1t didn't make any differ
ence whether he was a member of the
British, Irish or any other aristocracy.
He had title that we haven't got, and
hence the Invitations Now, l don't
mean to say that we Americans are
anxious to have any orders OF nobility
good ma nv of Us would like TO be
dukes and earls and viscounts and all
that, but we would be ridiculed so
much by those who couldn't get the
titles that the glamour of them would
ne much dimmed But we make up
for the lack OF noble names You bet
We do. Any other sort OF a title we
can get hold Of is used with
vengeance. Consider military designa-
| tions, for instance. Look over the
/ lists Of people who are present az suy
public functions. The number Of milf
tary men IS astounding. Where do
+ they come from? The war has been
o-er nearly thirty years. and vast
number Of the officers who came out OF
F il are dead But the number OF gerer-
ais. majors and captains seems stu
/ pendously large still OF course,

Z week In q state camp. He makes his
living as a business or professional
man; his military associations are
merely an incident Of his career. But
to all the world he is the colonel and
be remains the colonel forever.
Now, am not kicking about this,
you understand. Nobody of sense
would kick about it. l simply cite it
to illustrate how a title, especially a
military title, sticks. Then look at
the military stats of governors. These
ere usually made up Of civilians They
don't know any more about drills and
tactics and strategy than a South Sea
Islander does about the constitution OF
the United States; and, moreover, they
don't learn any more while they hold
their offices, but they get to be known
as the colonies and majors and cap
tains; and the titles stick. Nobody, l
presume, is going to kick very
hard over this; but l, for one,
DO kick against magnifying or manu-
featuring titles. A man may some
how or other be entitled to be called
lieutenant or a captain, but 1t ire
quently happens that in some inexpu-
cable way he sooner or later be-
comes a colonel or general. This
is especially the case when he runs for
political Office, and in these in
stances he rarely stops short of being
full fledged general, with the infer
entail record of life imperlled, forts
stormed and battles won. Then, we
actually manufacture these titles
without the slightest excuse. Gen
eral officers of all kinds, attorney-gen-
erals, paymaster-geDerals, solicitor
generals and SO on-sometime or other
get big military rank, and very often
the title persists in staying by them.
But we have other titles. Some
one has said that the only salvation of
the republic was the fact that there
were so many societies of various kinds
in the country, and thus almost every
body could have an Office OF some kind
and title of some kind. 1t is sort
Of safety valve, suppose, for man to
be grand master, or high priest, or
most worshipful this or that. or a
grand mogul of something or other. 1t
does no harm, and perhaps some good.
But the title that l kick against in
earnest is the one for which some OF
the newspapers are largely response
bic. How thu practice ever started l
don't know, unless it was to save
space. 1t is the habit of making a
title or prefix of mans occupation.
This is becoming extremely prevalent,
especially among certain newspapers
in this city. We have Lawyer Smith,
Banker Jones, Broker Brown, etc. |
have even seen Butcher Green in print.
/ The worse case / recall was Driver OF
the Canalboat Mary Jane Timothy
Black, capital letters and all. A man
Is very rich; he is frequently dubbed
/ Millionaire Jones. He is a singer; he
is called Tenor de Throatstrings. He
! coils ropes on steamboat and he gets
/ into print as Deckhand McGinty. He
is law-defying crank and he is writ
! ten up as Anarchist Smithkins. And
so on. 1 don't believe they do such
silly things as this anywhere else on
earth. The only designations of any
! kind we should have in this country
are official ones; except in Ketueky,
and, of course, there everyone has an
! inalienable right to be a colonel"

STATEHOOD OR NOTHING.

The press of the country seems to nave
taken up the matter of statehood 1or
Oklahoma in earnest. The Indica ions
are that congress will be memoTlaiiz+u
by all political parties, and from al
quarters. There is but one sentiment,
SO far as we have seen. ana that Is 1or
statehood. but there should be no hali
way business about it. Ii The question Is 10
be disposed Of piece-meal, IL were better
deferred till il can be done right. lhere
IS. however, no occasion for delay.
With a population Of over quarter OF
million, large proportion of the land In
cultivation, thriving cities and towns In
every county, railroads and daily mail
facilities in every part OF the territory,
schools. churches and a well organized
community Of industri us, thrifty peo-
pie-why are they not entitled to come,
as state, into the Union. a map OF
the territory and it surroundings shows
the absurdity of longer withholding
state privileges. With only an lmagl-
nary line between dividing ii from two
prosperous states, the problem is solved,
both to the north and the south OF 1t.
If the people of Kansas and Texas are
capable of self-goyernmeDt, Oklahoma
is equally qualified.
There are hopeful signs that the cheap
sentiment, harbt red by eastern people
toward few Indians ard half breeds Is
diving out. There is neither reason, JUS
tice or common sense in the government
supporting these WARDS, and furnishing
them with this large area OF choice farm
ing land for so-called hunting grounds.
The land is not utilized for that, or any
other purpose. the policy adopted has
simply taught the Indians to draw their
rations of flour, meat and sugar, while
the game preserve has served only IA a
rendezvous for outlaws. Nothing short
of suspending the tribal relation of these
Indians, making them a liberal ailot-
ment of land and teaching them the
arts of husbandry as means of sell
support, will do them any good. There
is got d redskin in the whole territory
who would not be better off with quar-
ter section of land under cultivation
than he is under his present pauperized
condition.
The talk of ownership of these lands
is all nonsense. This territory was only
set apart in the first place for the use OF
the Indians. This was done by the gov
eminent, and If the government had the
right to make this provision for them it
certainly has the right to amend the
agreement now. Even if these tribes
had occupied the land prior to white set
tlement, there is the old question of
whether simple pre-emption gives them
the better right than that of those who
develop the country.
If the recent outrag s against law and
order serve to open the eyes of congress,
and the people at large, to the cohdi-
tons which are well nigh intOlerable. 1T
will serve as temporary blessing IN
disguise. Statehood for the whole of
what was embraced i'll the Indian Ter
ritory, with provisions for he people to
govern themselves, will settle the ques-
ton once and for all. Anything short
of that will be but temporary and in
effectual

The latest advice from headquarters is
that number of defeated Democratic
candidates are to receive government
appointments in return for the sacrifices
they have made. This will. no doubt.
be very satisfactory TO the beneticiaries,
but ii it is done as compensation for
TIE loss Of time or money, such appoint
ments will hardly meet with public
favor. Certainly these men wera not
forced into the race for Office. The pro-
liability Is that most of them sought the
nomination. bringing every influence TO
bear to attain it. Even worse than this.
not a few o. them proved an encumb-
rance 10 the ticket. Mr.. " lsln, it l. said.

Other applicants will, no doubt. have
views on these matters. and such ap-
pointments may prove only auoiFer mai
in the coffin of Democracy.
