Does Mr. Cleveland wish the dem
ocrats To lose control OF uhe House?
He has certainly done a number OF
things recently which indicate that
he does, and quite a number of the
shrewdest observers of things poht-
zeal at the national capital have stated
their opinions to be that Mr.. CleVe-
land would be glad to see either the
republicans control, or the popuiists
hold the balance of power i'll the next
House. His last act before leaving
Washington was to appoint long list
of postmasters, three fourths of whom
were opposed by the democratic Con-
gressmen from their districts; thus
apparently adding all he could to the
difficulties already being experienced
by the aforesaid democratic Con
gressmen.
He is also at the bottom of the row
in the democratic congressional cam
paign committee, which will probably
result in that committee not sending
out any tariff documents at all, leav-
ing every democratic candidate free
to decide for himself whether he will
defend or abuse the sugar trust
tariff law.
The theory of those who believe
this to be Mr.. Cleveland's position is
that he has had quite enough demo-
cratic legislation, and wishes to see
Congress in a position where it can
do nothing for the next two years
except to pass the regular appropria-
ton bills.
He hopes by that time that the peo-
pie will have forgotten the disastrous
first two years of his administration,
and that he will have at least a fight
ing chance to be reelected should he
succeed in getting the nomination
again. which he is egotistical enough
to believe that he can easily do, not
withstanding his being on bad terms
with nearly every prominent member
of his party There is one little
drawback certain to defeat this
scheme. even should all the rest of it
work-the people will not forget.

commissioner. made vacant by the
death of Col Wildes. Mr., Spofford
is already well known in public life,
having been one of eX-GoV. Bur

could make no better appointment
than to name Mr.. spoford for the
vacancy. Hancock county has at
present not single representative
in the State government, outside the
legislature, or on any State board, or
at the head of any state institutions.
The fitness of the candidate, combined
with the propriety Of recognizing this
county, would seem TO be sufficient
grounds for the appointment of Mr..

Gresham's Short Memory

Secretary Gresham either has a
short memory or he thinks the Amerl-
people have. When the tariff bill
was pending in the Senate news was
cabled from Europe that if the sugar
trust schedule became a law Spain
would retaliate by abrogating the re
ciprucity agreement under which
American products were given special
rates toy Cuba an Porto Rico. So
great an impression did that cable
gram make on the Senate that reso-
luton was adopted asking the secre-
tarv Of state if he had any knowledge
of an intention upon the part of Spain
or OF any other country to retaliate
upon the United States because of the
tariff bill.
In answer to that resolution Seere-
tarv Gresham said he had no such in
formation. and intimated that nobody
else had and that he did not believe
any country contemplated such
action. Now, when the State depart
ment is in possession of the official
notification of the abrogation of the
reciprocity agreement with Spain for
Cuba and Porto Rico. he says he is not
surprised and that he expects other
countries to abrogate the reciprocity
agreements made under the Mckinley
law 1t looks as though Mr.. Gresham
also allows the interests of the sugar
trust to regulate his official utterances.

A Correction.

In reading the Jasper COURIER vi
have frequently noticed card from DIR
\. IL. Wilson, in which he warns tho
good people of this section that he is in
no wise connected professionally with
either Drs. Downs, Green or Brown
Speaking for ourselves We hasten to as
sure the Doctor that We feel under many
obligations To him for the explanation
We are frequently called upon by hi,
old customers, who have his "forty-dol
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS" teeth
which are in need OF repairs, ETC., and
the Doctors explanation may save III
this annoyance The only explanation
We can give these old customers of his i,
that DIR. Wilson is now located at Wash
ington, Ind, and that they could fine
him there, unless he was practicing with
his brother at Wichita, Kansas. To
further set them Alright, we also tel
them that DR.. Wilson is much Older
man than ourselves, although he does
not look it. He can readily be recog
nized by his short heavy build, luxurian,
black (sometimes) hair and beard, and
general well-fed appearance. He il
now a married man, although he used tc
be single.
DR.. Wilson is certainly a very "profe
sional' man, especially when he takes
occasion TO stigmatize regular graduates
of recognized dental colleges as ''squirts'
etc. II may be that in his greatness to
do all the dental work for this section he
fails to take into consideration the fact
that himself, and one or two others, are
the only non-graduates in the county,
and such being the case that they are
entitled to all the work.
DIR. Wilson'S continued objections 10
our practicing in this section has only
shown him up as being very greedy, and
in reading one Of his newspaper notices,
as published from time to time, in which
he draws on senile imagination for
facts to carry him out, one would natur-
ally come to the conclusion that he was
in his dotage, and INDUCING in q favorite
act Of childishness.
DR.. Downs desires to say in answer to
DR.. Wilson's repeated insinuations as tc
the merits of his work, that he DIR. d.
guarantees his work as the best. II
speaks for itself. And further that he

concentration in his possession, signed

fess we are ut loss to understand his
