BOurke Cochran as a Republican.


AS tending to show how fast and how
easily Democrats fuse with Republicans
when occasion seems to require it, let us
refer to the case Of the Honorable
BOurke Cochran, Of New York, a distin-
guished member of the Tammany So
ciety. He supported the Republican
candidate and platform in 1896, and in
the late city election for Mayor Of
Greater New York he took an active and
conspicuous part on the side Of General
Tracy, the Republican candidate. We
submit herewith the opening paragraphs
of the New York Suns report Of Re-
publican meeting held about the close
Of the campaign:
with elOquence unsurpassed and sur
rounded by a cheering multitude, which
by the power Of speech he swayed as the
wind sWays the trees in the forest,
Bourke Cochran, the Democrat, last
night renewed the pledge for national
honor that he made last year and took
his stand, solid and unyielding as
sturdy oak, beside Gen. Benjamin F.
Tracy, the defender Of national honor
In this campaign, the candidate Of the
party that saved the nations honor a
year ago. It was memorable meeting.
It was the greatest meeting that has
been held by any party for any candi-
date during this campaign. Packed to
the doors by a crowd whose enthusiasm
needed but to be stirred to become al
most boundless, the Grand Central Pal
ace presented a picture the counterpart
of which could seldom be found, even
in a national campaign. It was at once
a sight to fill with confidence Of victory
the loyal Republicans who stand with
Gen. Tracy and to strike CONSERVATION
to the crew Of mugwump Democrats who
are sailing Seth Lows ship Of destruc-
tion. Alternately the orator had this
crowd roaring with laughter or cheering
enthusiastically as he darted sharp
shafts of sarcasm at the defamers OF
Gen. Tracy or arose to flights OF elo-
Quence in his defense. For an hour and
q half he held them. A dozen, yes,
twenty times, in the course Of his speech
he had half the crowd on their feet,
roaring, whooping, bowling, cheering,
and waving flags, handkerchiefs, hats
and umbrellas and anything else which
they had. They were scenes not common
in municipal campaign; they were
scenes such as are most often seen at
national conventions, when crowds are
swept with enthusiasm for some popular
favOrite OF the nation. Bourke Cock
rams speech was great 1t was convinc-
ing. It was an argument from first to
last, and an unanswerable argument
from the standpoint Of every loyal Re-
publican"

them, too. Take it, as you ought, when
you feel the first symptoms (languor,

To the Editor of the Journal and Courier;
From Mr. Linsley's communication in
Mondays issue, one would suppose that
he and his fellow veterans had been
engaged in saving the country, not as
patriots for themselves and descen-
dants, but as mercenaries for a third
party by whom they had been made
uately paid and from whom, therefore,
large sums were still due.
The very worst feature of the pension
laws as they exist to-day is that they
maintain, encourage and continually
enlarge, vast body of people whose
position leads them to regard the gov
eminent as a debtor and who are,
therefore, in danger Of losing a sense
Of the self sacrificing and ennobling
duties of republican citizenship. The
government should be as % mans own
household. AS well look for pecuniary
reward for defending the honor and
sanctity of the one, as for preserving
the integrity of the other. These are
the sentiments on which the country
was founded: these are the only senti-
ments which guarantee permanence of
republican institutions; sentiments,
alas, which seem fading away amid the
murk and mists of modern cupidity and
selishness
The notion'of n money equivalent may
as we'll be applied to one side as on
the other. How much does Mr.. Lins-
ley owe the government for being able
to shine as a veteran amid his less for
tunate townsmen? For how much in
hard cash would he sell his experiences
in the army; the memory OF heroic SER
vice; the consciousness of valiant con-
duct; the proud satisfaction of duty,
we'll done. What are these things
worth to himself and his children?
Would he part with them all for ten
thousand dollars. or for ten times ten
thousand? Let Mr.. Linsley himself an
sWer. .t
No people on the face of the earth
have larger and warmer hearts than
the Americans. No veteran of any pat
riotic war will ever be neglected. But
he must be worthy, and his pension
must not be extended to those who have
not shared in his sacrifices 1t would
be infinitely better to relegate the care
and honor Of veterans TO the States
from which they volunteered, leaving
to the United States the care of it's own
regulars. Then pensions would be on
constitutional basis and the pension
bureau would cease to alarm with the
decrease of its enormous power and
patronage. Then too, pensions would
be better equalized; for a pension to-
day in Connecticut will not go half as
far in supporting "a family as the same
pension in Texas or Oregon.
The wide interest taken in the pen
sion question is a most healthy sign,
and encourages the hope that Aneri-
can common sense will triumph in this,
as heretofore 1t has in other matters Of
f-government

OUR LONDON LETTER.

The late George Bunsen, the accom-
plished and delightful son of the baro-
ness, whose Life and Letters are we'll
known in America, once told me an
aneodote Of the Princess Mary and the
celebrated Banting. The princess be-
came, in her middle life, enormously
stout, and finding her weight a.
burden, tried several methods of redu-
cling it. At last, having heard much
of Banting, she sent for him. She was
surprised to see that he was still ex-
tremely bulky and after a few civil
preparatory remarks, she said, But
your system has not made you very
thin, Mr.. Banting?"
ALLOW he, madam" said Banting-
and proceeding to unbutton his coat,
he disclosed large wire structure over
which the garment fitted. Inside was
the real Banting, encased in another
coat,
This, madam" said he, pointing
with pardonable satisfaction to his
cage, twas my size before commenced
dieting" He then nimbly disembar-
raised himself of his-fralne work, and
stood before the royal lady exhibiting
his elegant figurel
Apparently the interview led to moth
ing but amusement, for the good Ouch
ess of Teck remained very stout to the
end of her day.-Harper's Bazaar.

A Yacht as n Monument.

1t is reported that the cabin of the
old yacht Dauntless, the floating
monument" was entered by thieves,
and that many articles of value were
taken. Soon after the death, few
years ago, of the owner of the Daunt-
less, Commodore Caldwell H. Colt, his
mother, Mrs. Samuel Colt, of Hartford,
had the yacht taken to Essex, Oonn.s
and moored in n cove.
The rigging was stripped from the
vessel, but no changes were made in
her interior, and tho big saloon and
staterooms present the same appear
ance that they did the last time Com.
modore Colt trod her decks. This
was in accordance with the expressed
intention of Mrs Colt to retain the
Dauntless rs floating monument TO
the memory of her only child.
Many offers have been made for the
yacht, but sho has refused them ell,
and has announced that never again
shall the anchors be raised or sail
bent to the spars. Every summer since
her sons death Mrs. Colt has journeyed
down from her Hartford homo and
spent two weeks aboard, accompanied
only by her servants and refusing to
entertain any callers. New York
