A Man Who ram. Too Much.

Col Waring the new street commits
sioner or New York city. Is a man who
talks too much. He has views upon all
sorts Of subjects 20 which he gives utter
ance upon very slight provocation- They
may be very sound views. but it doesn't
follow that he should go out OF his way
10 give them publicity.
TIE Grand Army OF the Republic is just
now making life a burden to Col. Warlns
because he declared the members Of rhe
grand army to he lot Of pension
buns" However good a street commits
sioncr he may be- and he seems to be
very good one, the grand army people are
not going TO stand that sort of thing. and
so they are demanding that the mayor Of
New York shall demand his resignation.
il is hardly probable that the demand win
be compiled with. because his criticism of
the grand army has nothing to do with his
duty or his efficiency as a street commits
sioner If he were gifted with a little more
tact however, he would not be continually
having a squabble with somebody or
other.
Although there may be some truth In
what Col Warning said about the grand
army people there is not enough truth in
It to justify the sweeping criticism he
made. The great body Of the members Of
the grand army are industrious and thrift
ty citizens. There may be some buns"
in the grand army camps but It is pretty
well understood who they are
II will hardly be denied. however, that
the raid on the treasury by pension claim
ants and their attorneys justihes TO some
extent Col Warnings criticism. The in
crease in the pension charge within the
last few years has been enormous. In
1875 pension payments amounted to only
$29. 456,2l6 year. Up to 1883 they amount
ed to only $S7.s2i.779 year. but last year
they reached the enormous sum of SlH.-
III 2S4. Such an extraordinary increase
seems to Justify the conclusion that grand
army influence must have been used very
freely in behalf of pensions Still. it will
not do to say that the grand army men
are pension buns" And it is probable
that Col. Waring did not mean TO include
all Of them, or even very considerable
portion of them. He meant, doubtless, to
refer only to those who have been partic-
ularly active in getting pensions for all
sorts Of reasons. However. Col Waring
is a republican and a union veteran, ana
he and the other veterans can fight on.
their quarrel without exciting great deal
of interest in this section in it. The only
interest the southern people have is that
they would like the pension burden kept
within reasonable bounds, since they have
to help pay it.

Sir Arthur Sullivan tells this story on
himself in the Strand Musical Magazine:
Together with a party of friends, I was
once traversing rather uncivilized dis
trict in the state of California, when We
stepped at a mining camp for some refresh
ments. The driver informed me that
was expected there. and, feeling rather
gratified to hear this, / made my way to-
ward the whisky store. Three or four fell
lows were lounging about, and one ap-
preached a big, sturdy man. who was
standing near me, and said to him: Are
you MIR. SULLIVAN" The man shook his
head and pointed his finger in my direc-
ton. After looking me up and down. the
man demanded What do you weigh 2?
About $50 pounds. was my reply. 'Poohr

a French physician has ascertained by
experiments upon himself that the scale
of variation in weight of a person forms A
sort of barometer of the condition of
health of the person. Thus, according to his
theory, any sudden increase in the weight
of an adult that amounts to one pound
per diem shows tendency to disease. on
the contrary, when PERSONS weight does
not vary more than two or three-tenths OF
a pound in twenty-four hours his health
may be considered good. or normal Large
variations of weight in either direction
indicate a disturbance of the functions of
the organization. When the Frenchman
gets his new system perfected it will fill
a long felt want. Presumably diagnoses
will be made on the scales. There Will be
no more scrutinizing, of tongues or count
ing of pulses. The patient will weigh in"
every morning. the doctor will make his
calculations from the avoirdupois showing.
and there you are!

EnsIand's Trouble with Nicaragua.

EngIand's Trouble with Nicaragua.
If the facts are as they are understood
to be, there is no good reason for sympa-
thy with Nicaragua in the difficulty she
has with England. quite recently there
was war between Nicaragua and Hondu-
ras. and the Mosquito reservation was
occupied by Nicaraguan troops. The peo-
pie of the reservation resented the pres
ence of the troops of Nicaragua, as they
claimed they had a right to. conduct their
own affairs, native prince named Clar-
ence being regarded as their chief They
therefore offered considerable resistance
to the Nicaraguans. They were quickly
subdued. however, and Prince Clarence
was expelled from the country, and Mica
ragua undertook to administer the govern
ment.
The Nicaraguan government concluded
that there would have been no opposition
to the troops of Nicaragua if the people
had not been melted to attack them by
British residents. That government de-
cided that the chief promoter of the dis
turbance was Mr.. Hatch the British vice
consul. but there was no evidence that
this was fact. He and several other
Englishmen were arrested and expelled
from the country without the formality
of trial 1t is alleged that Mr.. Hatch
was subjected to great indignities For
this arbitrary and unjustihable action the
British government demands for Mr..
Hatch an indemnity of $4,000.
The Nicaraguan official who got the Mic,
I araguan government into trouble is Senior
Madriz He appears to be altogether too
dictatorial for his position His hasty ac-
ton will cost his government $4,000, If
the Nicaraguan people feel any bitterness
in this matter it ought to be against their
own government. Our dispatches yester-
day stated that there were fears that II
the indemnity was paid the present gov
eminent would be overthrow. II it con-
tains other members having as little judg-
ment as Senior Madriz Nicaragua would
lose very little ~ tho government were
overthrow and new one established in
its place

Maybe it was a good thing for beef eat
ers in this country that Germany shut out
American cattle. The republican papers
asserted that the discrimination of Ger
many, because of our new tariff law, would
work all kinds of hardships upon Ameri-
can cattle raisers. So far from that being
the case. however, beef cattle are worth
more now than they were before Germany
put up her bars against them, and the
packers allege that the supply is not equal
10 the demand. Had Germany continued
TO take American cattle there is no telling
bow high the price of beef might have
gone.

Secretary Morton may be able to show,
through the inquiry of the agricultural de g.
partment, that the advance in the price
of~beef has been pretty much all in the
dressed article and not in beef on the
koof. If he can show that, it will be pref
ty strong evidence that the boom is the
result of a combination of the packers
According to the law of supply and de-
nland the price of cattle and the price of
dressed beef ought to go up together. 1t
may transpire that the secretary will put
into the hands of the department of JUS
tice facts that will lead to an enforcement
Of the antitrust law in the case of the
beef trust.

The Income TnN Cnre.

There is a prospect that the income tax
will be satisfactorily adjusted next month.
The court will hear argument on May 6
as to whether rehearing shall be grant
ed, and there viii be a full bench present
on that occasion. MIR. Justice Jackson
has announced that he has so far recov-
cred his health as to be able to take his
place upon the bench to assist in settling
this most important case.
Nothing is said, of course, as to the
time of hearing argument of the case
should a rehearing be granted. In respect
to that matter much will depend upon
whether rehearing is granted.
The court can form a pretty good
opinion as to Mr.. Justice Jackson's views
of the case after he has heard the appl-
cation for a rehearing and will be in a
position then to decide whether it would
be advisable to have the rehearing at
once.
1t will hardly be doubted that the case
should be clearly and definitely settled
without unnecessary delay. If the whole
law is unconstitutional it would be folly
to go on collecting the tax because it
would have to be refunded. As the law
stands at present, there is so much doubt
in respect to it that no one is
going to pay the tax if he can avoid do
ing so. The sooner the question of the
constiutionality. of the law is settled
therefore the better 1t will be for the
country.

Self Classified.
From the Arizona Republican (snver).

The best way to toll hogs is to drop
a little corn along the ground and allow
the animals to eat it, IN that way they
can be induced to go almost anywhere,
even when il would be impossible to drive
them. If Mr.. Cleveland and his fellow
gold bugs wish to lead us into thes "sound
money corral the easiest way would be
to toll" us. Let us get a taste Of
little of the money. So long as we do not
have any we do not care whether il is
a chance to hear the sound of money
then we will all be favorably inclined
to some process for making it sound.
