THE New York Republicans have
selected Chauncey NJ. Depew as Uni
ted States Senator to succeed Senator
Murphy. Mr.. Murphy hasn't been
much Of representative, but in our
opinion the matter hasn't been mend
ed by sending Mr.. Depew to take his
place. Depew is the mouthpiece and
tool of the Vanderbilts, and knows
nothing so well as how to serve the
interests of monopolies and corpora
lions. He will OF course be useful to
his masters in the Senate, but as a
representative of the people he will
be worse than Murphy.

ONE of the disgraceful incidents
connected with the management Of
affairs by the War Department has
attained white heat the past week.
General Miles, in his testimony before
the investigating committee, spoke Of
the character Of the provisions fur
nished the soldiers in Cuba, and re-
ferred to "embalmed' beef as part Of
the food supply. Commissary-Gener-
al Eagan, who is responsible as the
head Of this department Of the service,
has been violently angry at General
Miles, and his rage reached the cul-
minating point few days ago when
be read most disgraceful paper before
the investigating committee. In his
testimony he called General Miles al
most every sort of liar-said che lies
in his throat, he lies in his heart, he
lies in every hair of his head and ev-
cry pore in his body-he lies wilfully'
deliberately, Intentionally and malic-
iously." General Eagan also said
General Miles should be drummed out
of the service and put in prison that
he ought to be denounced by every
honest man and that he ought t2-De
so ostracised that ever a bootblsck
would refuse TO speak to him. Gen
eral Eagan is said to be protege of
Secretary of War Ayers, who doesn' t
like General Miles because he speaks
too frankly. President Mckinley has
determined that General Eagan suall
be tried by court-martial for his out
rageous language, and it may be that
Secretary Alger will resign,

The entire neglect of legislative
matters by the Legislatures Of West
Virginia, Pennsylvania, Delaware,

swerable argument in favor Of the

presented of valuable time that should
be devoted to the public business be-
ing absolutely wasted in log-rOlling
