DEATH OF EX GOVERNOR Rus
SELL -Ex.Gov. VIM. E. Russell,
of Massachusetts, died very sud-
denly last Wednesday night, it is
supposed from heart disease. He
had gone to st. Adelaide, De Pa
los, Quebec, for the purpose of
fishing aud recuperating from the
exhaustive labors of the Chicago
convention and was found dead
the next morning in his tent by
his brother and another compan-
ion. He was only 80 years of age,
but had been twice Governor OF
Massachusetts. Indeed, he was
the only Democrat, with the single
exception of CASTOR in 1874. who
had ever been able to wrest execu-
tive control of the Bay State from
the Republicans. The premature
death of IL man with such a bril-.
liant future before him, is griev-
Gus shock to bis immediate family
and is a source of sincere regret,
not only To his political and legal
brethren in Massachusetts, but
throughout the United States.

An Honest Man.

1t is said that Gan honest man
is the noblest work of Gods crea-
tion,n from which the inference
might he drawn that this particu-
lar kind OF man is a rayn aris, al
though all men are held to be hon.
est in the eye of the law, until
they are shown by competent and
legal evidence to be dishonest.
But the proposition that Mr.. X.
Ii. Lewis, OF Raleigh, N. c., is AL
honest man, cannot be successfully
cOntroverte1.
An appropriation of s4l, 7Ol.95
was made at the last session OF
Congress, to pay the assignees OF
the New York and New Orleans
Steamship Company, from@which
the national government purchas-
ed in 1861 the steamships DeSoto
and Bienvile for war purposes.
1t seems that the parties i'll inter
est had been paid from a congress
sional appropriation for that pur.
pose twenty years ago, a fact en-
tirely Unknown to Congress or the
present Secretary of the Navy, on
account of erroneous bookkeeping.
After about $4,000 he'd been paid
out to various beneticiaries under
the appropriation, Mr.. Lewis wrote
to Secretary Herbert, returning
the money and notifying him that
he had received his pro ruth of the
amount twenty years ago and did
not propose to mulct "Uncle SAM
out of it second time.
An investigation soon revealed
the fact that the statement of Mr.
Lewis was true. 1t is not likely
that the parties Who had already
received the money, can be made
to disgorge.
AS it is customary to hold Pres
ident Cleveland responsible for thu

thousand other ills with which the

"Neither shall any person be eli
