PHENOMENAL SUCCESS.

Partisan Newspapers and comments:
The foregoing is an editorial from the
Topeka State Journal That paper has
achieved such phenomenal success as a
newspaper that it is independent from
a business standpoint as well as a pO-
1itica1 one, and it is this position that
has brought down on its head the dis
pleasure of the Lord Mayor of the capt.
tai city.
Wichita. it appears, is not the only
city of Kansas whose chief executive
wants to take all the city administra-
ton to build political fences from, for
Topeka seems to have one OF the same
kind but, unlike the Wichita AIikado.
he no longer has an organ to do his bid
ding and defend his every act, so he
proposes to have one if he has to trade
the city printing for it, and ride rough
shod over the council in order to do SO.

PRESIDENT CLEvELAND's COTTAGE GRAY GABLES.

Not all of these remained with the presi-
dent throughout the journey, and others
Joined the party en- route.
Travelling by special train, the presi-
dents party went from Louisville to Chat
tanooga, to Murfreesboro, to Knoxville, TO
Atlanta, across the Blue Ridge mountains
to Lynchburg, to Charlottesville, to Mon
ticellO and then to Washington. Undoubt-
edly that journey created a kindlier feeling
toward Mr.. Hayes in the south. There is
an innate reverence for the president in ev-
cry American heart, whoever may be the
incumbent of the office, and that feelalG
asserted itself when the southern people
came into personal contact with Mr.. Hayes
Personally, too, he was a most dignified
and Iovable man.
President Hayes was a great traveller.
Perhaps he felt the need of getting nearer
to the people because Of the bitterness
growing out of the circumstances of his
election. Whatever the reason, he gave
more time to opening state fairs and pre-
siding at monument dedications than Gid
any other of the presidents. In September,
1879, he opened a state fair at St. Paul and
another at Toledo; in October he opened a
fair at Winchester, Va; in September of
1879 he attended a reunion of his regiment
at Youngstown, O., and on the following
day he opened the Michigan state fair at
Detroit. By far the greatest part Of his
vacation, though, was spent in Fremont,
and in this he emulated the examples of
his earliest predecessors.
The difficulty of reaching the seat of
government at New York or Philadelphia
from his Virginia home made it necessary
for President Washington to spend great
deal of the time when congress was not in
session away from Mount Vernon. But he
visited his estate as often as he could and
spent there all the time that he could spare
from public duties. He was so fond of the
place that he always left it with deep re-
greet. 1t was the sight of beautiful Mount
Vernon that made him write to Madison
near the end of his first term, saying he
was determined to retire from public life,
and only the united pleas of Madison and
Jefferson persuaded him to reconsider that
determination.
Washington and his immediate successors
viewed the demands of the executive office
as the members of congress did those of
the Legislative branch of the government
Vacation Days of John Adams.
John Adams, as soon as congress ad.
journed, would fly to his home at Quincy
and settle there for the summer ready,
however, to return to the capital if any
emergency required his presence there.
His family remained at Quincy while he
was at the seat of government. Mrs. Adj
ans was in poor health, and the president
spent the summer Of 1898 watching at her
bedside. In the following yea< Mrs. Ad-
ans illness called him away at a critical
time, and his secretary of the navy, Mr.
Stoddert, had to recall him to the tempo
rary capital Yellow fever was epidemic at
Philadelphia, and the seat of government
had been transferred to Trenton.
Jefferson visited his home at Monticello

whenever he could leave his public duties
Indeed, he drove down into Virginia di-
rectly after appointing his cabinet and
spent some time arranging his affairs and
giving minute orders for the care of his
estate in his absence
1t was not possible for the early presi-
dents to gallop around the country as some
of their recent SUCCESSORS have done Irav-
cling was slow and tedious work a cen
tury ago, and most of the early presidents
knew more Of foreign countries from OBJ
servation than they did of their own land
During the peSzod between the Declaration
of Independence and its recognition by for
eign powers most of them had been on dip
lomatic missions to the courts of Europe,
while no business demanded a visit to
the wilderness that lay just beyond the
borders of the new states.
The Hayes Pilgrimage.
But, then, how many of the presidents
have seen their own country since the rail
road reduced the time between oceans to
week or 1essS Hayes was the first president
to travel clear across the continent He
made the journey to San Francisco in the
fan Of 1880, just before the elections, and
no doubt took a broader view of many ma
tional questions from his observations OF
the great west
Harrison was the only other president
to make the trip TO the coast during his
DoEIu VI O1IHGS III one Oh Sk1GOCllA4oAA-
ing trips which he took before he planned
his transcontinentalt tour he said he thought
congress ought to send the president and
his cabinet on a tour Of inspection every
summeF-that the country would be better
governed if its executive officers knew
more about it Mr. Harrison made every
effort to acquire that knowledge. He made
one trip through Illinois, Iowa, Missouri,
Indiana and Ohio, another through Yer
mont and another through the southern
states and to the Pacific coast.
But travelling was not President HaFri-
sons chief recreation. Unlike Mr.. Hayes,
he did not spend his vacation at his home
in Indianapolis. One summer he spent at
Deer Park Afterward, when Mr.. Wanna
maker and his misguided friends tried to
give him a cottage, for which the president
felt bound to pay, he went to Cape May
Point for two seasons. He was likewise
very fond of duck shooting and often took
a succession Of holidays engaged in this
rare sport
Grant was very fond Of the seashore, and
he spent a great deal of time at Long
Branch That was where Garfield was go

While H. E. Gaines, the ex-police-
man who shot Cruger and killed him,
may have been guilty of granddaughter
as the jury decided, and he doubtless
was guilty, as the evidence showed,
there We're extenuating circumstances
This paper, Immediately after the
conviction of Gaines, favored his par
don and it still favors it. The lesson
was taught by the conviction of Gaines
that policemen must not use their fire
arms too hastily, and that hot headed
men should not be employed on the
police force. The sending of Gaines to
the penitentiary could not impress this
lesson any more forcibly than 1t had
already been impressed.
Nothing can be gained by the longer
incarceration Of the unfortunate man
in the penitentiary. He should be re-
stored to his family, and permitted to
become a useful citizen. 1t is to be
hoped the board Of pardons will re-
commend his release to the governor

There is likely to be a bolt at st.

pursues. Many Popuhsts have al
ready made up their minds to support
Bryan regardless of the action of their
convention. The time which has
elapsed since they left the Republican
and Democratic parties has been too
short for party lines to bind them very
tightly. Many who have been politi-
cal bushwhackers for 20 years have
grown to believe that reform can't come
through one of the old parties, even
though it reverse its entire history and

An effort is being made according to
reports from Topeka, to force Hon. A.
H. Ellis to repudiate his Hill City plat
form and come out boldly for the fin

The same tactics are being used against
Hon. c. Curtis of the Topeka district.
It seems to US that this is the worst
case of bulldozing We have ever heard
than q month before the St. Louis con-
gressiOnaI district in convention, more
than a month before che St. Louis con-

same money plank of the national
convention of four years ago. Two
years ago Mr.. Ellis made a gallant
race on about the same platform and

been elected. Now, perhaps at the in
stigation of the bosses he is command
ed to cast aside the will of the Repub-
leans of this district as expressed in
their convention and hamper his can
didacy by cowardice at the instigation
of those who by their acts say they
intend to rule or ruin. Shame on such
political methods! Let A. H. Ellis and

Tia Voioa of Pain.

A doctor ia the Pennsylvania hospital
has made a study Of the different express
sions of pain as CALCULATED by the people
of various nationalities who come to the
hospital to have their wounds dressed or
their bones set. Almost invariably Ameri-
cans relieve their feelings by profanity, the
length and quality of the oaths varying
with their expressions to "Owp or
'tOuchP' but even mild hammered Aueri-
cans feel that they are privileged to swear
when in pain. The italian murmurs a
continual string of words that sound like
g Aa-ma-na-map - and the Russians who
come from the sacred precincts of Middle
alley and vicinity sway their bodies to
and fro while painful operations are being
performed, and sound like "Oyer-oyer-

has much to say while preparations are
being made, but when the pain grows in

Cleveland for going on a fishing trip when
the Venezuelan crisis was imminent an
noyed the present executive. Mr.. Buch-
anan would have been termed today
crank on the subject of Bedford Springs.
1t was his constant topic, and an old
timer who remembers an informal visit
he made to the White House IN Buchanan's
time tells how the president discoursed on
his favorite theme until one of his visitors
kicked over the andirons, and 50 diverted
the attention of the company and changed
the current of conversation.
1t is the almost invariable fate of presI-
dents to be criticised and condemned for
leaving Washington. Grant was much
abused for going to Long Branch, which
was his favorite resort ia the summer. Mr.
Lincoln was not open to this criticism
The condition Of affairs at Washington
made it necessary for him TO remain at the
capital, and he spent the long hot summer
days at a cottage in the Soldiers home
grounds on the outskirts of the city. This
was known as the presidents cottage, and
it was used by successive presidents after
him until Mr.. Cleveland's time. Mr. Cleve-
land set the fashion of owning summer
home in the country, and his purchase of
Oak View was a boon to real estate dealers
at the capital. 1t created q demand for
country property and set all Washington
specializing IN suburban real estate. The
ues, by which Mr.. Cleveland was one of the
chief gamers, for he sold Oak View at q
profit of many thousands of dollars. His
present summer home, Woodley, is worth
more for having been the home Of a presi-
dent, and no doubt when Mr.. Cleveland
retires to private life he can sell it for a
good sum above what he paid for it, but
not at the profit he realized on Oak View.
Mr.. Cleveland and his wife were much
more interesting figures eight years ago
than they are today. The glamour of TO
nance hung over them then. They were
counting popularity, too, and doing all
that could be done TO make the first Demo
cratic administration since 1860 notable.
1t was with a view to increasing the pop
ularity of his administration that the pres
ident ard his young wife accepted the in
vitation to visit St Louis and made their
triunphal trip in that gorgeous special
train half way across the continent. Pos
sibly If Mr.. and Mrs. Cleveland had been
disposed to cultivate popularity more and
recreation less in the last three summers
there would be more Of the kindly feeling
of eight years ago in the popular mind as
represented at the Chicago convention this
week GRANT HAMILTON

Suppose Senator PETER or John J. IN
gals should be advertised to speak in
Manhattan on free silver, the demon
stratiOns would be very different from

Charles Grosvenor is as a rushlight

Ingalls, as an attraction, and even Sen
ator PETER with his knapsack full of
figures is more entertaining than
Grosvenor. It is not surprising that
the people of Manhattan did not turn
out to hear him.
