A blunder was made i'm turning the
body of Ezra Ebright over to the mcdi-
cal college before the dead mans friends
had been notified according TO requests
made. The sensational features of this
case, however, will doubtless cause the
county commissioners to exercise more
care in similar eases that may arise
The disposition of the remains of a
county ward is a serious matter
and should be attended to by the hos
pital committee and county physician
under such regulations as will render
impossible such protests as were made
by the friends and neighbors of Ebright,
who had purchased a lot in a cemetery
in Union precinct and had requested
that he be buried therein.

from The present congress. In short,

TALK ABOUT MORTON.

Globe Democrats Secretary Morton enjoys
| the distinction of having had more speeches
made against him than any other member OF
the cabinet.
Detroit Free Press: II Secretary Morton
had no views except as to farm crops and
stock raising he would be accepted as one
of the most capable men ever called to the
hsad of the Agricultural department. But
he is guilty of thinking and talking about
all the vital issues before the people of the
country. Hence the fierce attacks to which
he is subjected by those who cannot think
or talk as we'll
Minneapolis Tribune: The members of
congress are carrying their grudge against
Secretary Morton to undlgnifed and unwar-
ranted lengths when they cripple the i'm
pOrtant branch OF the service devoted to
meat inspection simply to embarrass him.
II Is perfectly proper to instruct the secre-
tary to obey the laws governing his depart
ment but to try to cut of his salary and
reduce his appropriation for needed public
work is puerile in the extreme.
Indianapolis News: We fear Secretary
Morton has no realizing sense of his parlous
state. One would suppose, after his hcinous
conduct in refusing to squander public
money In valueless seeds had been held up
to the contumely and scorn of the nation by
great orators in both houses Of congress,
that he would be cast down and dismayed.
But not so. Just after the house had been
rebukng him and arraigning him, and dear
knows what he actually entertained at
dinner the president and the members Of the
cabinet. Did one ever see such insens-
bility to virtuous congressional criticism?
Louisville Courier-Journal The truth is
this effort. which will probably be success
full. tc force the secretary of agriculture to
distribute old and worthless seed in the
name of the members of congress simply
a mean little salary grab. They wish these
seed for their own use and they seek to
repeal the law which confines the distribu-
tion to seeds that are of some value They
are raising row about the conduct of Secre-
tary Morton in order to conceal the mean
ness of their own action in the matter.
They are simply raiding the treasury in
their own interest and crying "stop thief!'
in the hope OF averting attention from
themselves. But the men who vote for this
mean little grab will be remembered.

Rrrryrr nrLL N rHe SENATE.


Another effort was yesterday made
IN the senate to have the revenue hill
taken up. but II was defeated by the
votes OF five free silver republicans aud
the six pOpulists. The resolution of
the chairman OF the finance committee,
Mr.. Morrill,. TO take up the bill seems
to have been unexpected. and there was
a quite sharp debate as result in
which some strong feeling was eX-
hibitcd Mr.. Teller, who voted against
taking the measure up. declared that
the bill was never presented with amy
purpose OF passing it, asserting that
the sham effort to pass Il tariff bill was
degrading to the senate and those who
took part in It, Mr.. Morrill, said he
would not ask further time OH this
measure, so that il may be regarded as
dead, ana probably there will be no fur
ther attempt to provide more revenue
for the government. since 1t seems TO
be absolutely certain that nothing can
be done.
The republican house passed n rcvc.
nuc bill in good faith. No one has ever
questioned this. There is every reason
to believe that measure would have
given the government sufficient rcvc-
nuc TO al least stop the monthly deficits,
if not supplying a surplus. 1t was
framed for IN emergency and every re-
publican In congress should have felt
it to be his duty to support it, regard
less of the question whether or not it
could become a law. 1t was intended
to save the government from running
more deeply into debt and no repub-
lican can justify himself for opposing
such n measure. Fortunately for the
of the party, there are but
five republican senators who put them
selves in opposition and it will be sur
prising if the record they have made
does not prove to be the beginning of
the end of their political careers

According to Senator David b. Hill
there is decided difference between an
official inquiry and an official invcstiga-
tion. An Investigation is understood to
signify that there Is a strong suspicion
of irregularty, while an inquiry does
not necessarily disparage the office or
officer involved. SO far as the public is
concerned, however, it does not care
whether it gets its information through
an inquiry or an Investigation. What
1t wants is that all official action be
furnished with reference to every
questionable proceeding.

BOER RESENTMENT.

The bitter feeling of the people of
the South African republic toward Eng
land has been Enthusiastically manifested
since the Jameson raid, but it remained
for political association which is said
to be in high favor with President
Kruger to give expression to this feel
ing in the form of resolutions denounc'
ing Great Britain as the arch-cnemy of
the republic and declaring that there
should be no fraternity between the
Beers and the English. 1t appears from
this enunciation that the Beers believe
that the end of strife has not been
reached. thus showing that they have
no confidence in the cOnciliatOry atti-
tllde of the British colonial secretary,
Mr.. Chamberlain, or in the apparent
disposition of the British government
to respect the independence and the
rights of the South African republic.
In this they may be right and certainly
the wisdom of being prepared for a
possible eXigency is un1uestionable. but
at the same time they should be careful
apprehend. 1t is not at all probable
that the British government has now in
contemplation anything more than in
sistence upon maintaining such rela
tiOns to the Transvaal republic as We're
established by the treaty of 1884, which
gives that government authority over
the foreign policy of the republic. 1t
is undoubtedly the desire and the de-
termination of the Beers to annual this
relation and be absolutely Independent
of British authority or influence, but
they may not find it easy to do this at
once because other countries will hardly
be disposed to aid or uphold them in
breaking faith in this particular. Even
Germany, Notwithstanding the con
gratulatOry dispatch of Emperor Will
liam to President Kruger. would hesi-
tate to enter into relations with the
South African republic without the ap-
prOval of the British government. and
that is the only power which would be
at all likely to take course inimical
to the partial protectorate of England
III lIe II 10 poSSlDle llut
the British government will be found
willing to surrender this, rather than
intensity the enmity of the Beers, but
it has shown that it is prepared to re-
sist any efforts to force concession. 1t
would seem that the true policy of the
South African republic is to institute
such reasonable and practicable re-
forms as the Uitlanders ask for ana
which would make the government
more republican than it now is, hav-
ing done which it could appeal more
to the world for support in
its independence and for
protection against any aggression. The
Beers should recognize the fact that
they are no longer isolated and that !
they cannot safely ignore the demands |
Of political progress.

1t was introduced into Pennsylvania
Crawford county system. There is a
great deal to be said i'm its favor, al
though it may prove disappointing in
its result. Its efficacy as Il reform
measure depends upon the character of
the men who are put up as candidates
and finally upon the character of the
people who participate in the primaries.
Where two or three unfit men pit them
selves against one another and the
respectable and modest men do not
crowd to the front the voters will be
confined to Hobson's choice. They must
either choose between two evils or
throw their votes away. In conven-
ton it is possible to bring forward good
men who are not open aspirants and
get them nominated after playing the
bad men off against each other.
After all. the stream never rises above
its source in politics as in all pursuits
OF life. When caucuses are abolished
and primaries are purified so that every
body votes his honest convictions, un-
trammeled by threats and uninfiuenced
by promises or bribes, and when every
intelligent partisan voices his sentiments
and wishes at the primary election, the
party nominees will be truly representa-
tive of the party, and the party that
sets the highest standard of good citi-
Zenship will carry the day.

Hurter and Sound Money,

The late Hon. M ID. Harter of Ohm was
a man of honest convictions, and had the
courage of them. Though a democrat, he
criticised his party severely for it's short
comings, especially its financial vagaries
Just after the campaign of 1894 he said to
a reporter:
II am weary Of these pretended democrats
who have attempted to commit the party to
fanatcism and fraud, and whose leadership
has resulted in a merited defeat The party
has been betrayed by lot Of selfish poiti-
clans in New York and set of befuddled
cranks in the west. There is no speedier
way to oblivion for democracy than to fol-
low the dictation of traitors in one part of
the country and the counsel of fools in an
other. Here in Ohio we permitted ourselves
to sanction the folly of free silver, and the

New York RetRlintes.


New York is the first state to retaliate upon

provides that If any foreign government shall
refuse to permit any insurance corporations
Of New York state to do business In it's ter
ritory, the state insurance superintendent
shall refuse to allow the companies of such
foreign country to do any business in New
York. 1t appears that the German prohibit
tion applies to the two largest life COM
panies Of New York; but the act of retalia-
tion will apply to German fire companies
now doing business in New York as well
as the life companies. If there are any The
practical effect Of the measure will be to
drive out of the state or into the hands of
domestic companies a considerable volume
of fire and marine business now being done
by German companies. The retalatory
measure Is a sweeping one, and will prob
ably bring out warm protest from the
German government.
