To the Editor of the Press:

is so wholly inaccurate in it's statements
that must beg a little space to correct
them. Dean Stills sailed for England
not in December, but January 81, and
not Oh the Vancouver, but on the Labra-
dor. He was called to England by the
death of near relative. and will return
not next Monday, but as soon as praoti-
cable, probably on the first week in
March. He cannot have written to any
one here in the terms of the item referred

Acearsed All. Saws Hastings.

Governor Hastings has refused to con-
cur in the recommendation of the Pardon
Board in the cases of Richard Hughes.
James Calill and Charles Mcconnell, Of
Philadelphia. The applicants pleaded
guilty on November IL, lSa6, to an indict-
ment charging them with making false
returns as election officers of the Twelfth
district of the Fourth ward at the gen.
eral election held November 5, 1885. and
were sentenced TO six months each in
prison and deprived of the right of suff-
rage for four years.
The applicants served the fall term of
Imprisonment and were discharged some
time ago. The application was to relieve
them from the sentence of disfranchise-
ment. The Board favored this. But
Governor Hastings, in refusing to concur,
sharply says:
''He who, either as election officer OF
Driber, contributes TO the spoliation OF
the American ballot should be accursed
of men; and the stain which discolors
him should be reflected upon every per
son. high or low, who profits by his
crime refuse to concur in the recon-
mendation of the Board of Pardons, and
| decline to exercise Executive elem

The "common People. -

Public speakers, especially in the
course of political campaigns, are prone
to make frantic appeals TO the common
people," boast of their sympathy with
the common people," and otherwise
seek closer relations for the time being
with the common people" Take the
common people, out of Bryan's politi-
cal speeches, for instance, and there
would be little left except residuum of
fervid. fetid, over-done rhetoric and
few smouched and uncredited quotations
from orators and statesmen who are too
dead to resent the liberty taken with
their property. comments the st. Paul
dispatch" The same may be said OF
the most of Democratic and not few Re-
publican orators
Now, who are the common people" TO
whom all these distressing appeals are
mades 1.-THE reader wants TO know let
him go 70 one OF those humid, melan-
choly orators and ask: "Am 1 one of the
common people?" By pursuing this
course Of investigation he will learn that
the common people," like mosquitoes,
malaria, populist majorities and other
popular pests, are located in the next
county. The term common people"
and the profession of great concern for
them, sounds well to certain ears, but
they mean nothing or they mean some
thing that is positively an afIront. The
speaker himself. though he may make a
contrary profession, never feels that he is
one ofthe common people" are thu un-
| thinking but honest masses, who give
themselves up to manual labor and the
earning of a living, who are too busy to
/ think for themselves and who need a
guardian of about the dimensions of the
speaker. That is the demagogue's true
estimate of the common people"
In this country of ours there are no
common people, of the kind that the
demagogue has in mind. Every citizen is
an integral part of the nation and every
voter is a sovereign. There are plenty ol
them who are common" enough. heaven
knows, and simple enough and confiding
enough, but there are few but would re-
sent the favorite phrase of Mr.. Bryan
and his school of political economists i
it were applied to them in the course o
a personal conversation as it is from the
hGstings.
