gage in manufacturing public sentiment iE
favor of or against pending legislation in Con-
gress, but it is infinitely worse for a bureau of
the government to engage in such business.
Tho Interstate Commerce Commission has
been sendiue out thuuSan Of circular lette rs,
printed and mailed at public expense, asking
that letters be written to Senators and Repre-
sehtitiHfs 10 ma Ike them support the Cul"m
bill, for the enlargement eff the power OF thai
Commission. The exposure of this oili"idi
lobbying has caused Il sensation in Congr, :,
and it ought to cause the summary dismissal oil
every official who either participated therein or
countenancCd 1t; bat sir. Mckiniey's back
bone is hardly equal TO such heroic treatment
of the case.
A bill to make more Republican patronage,
which can i,e. utilized III the coming campaign,
has been reported from the House Census
Committee. Ii provides for the creation of Il
Census printing Office, wi.h suerinteDdent at
S2,AGa IL year, and Il large force of printers
and book-biuders. In previous cenSuses, this
work has been done at the government print
ing Cfiice, and there is no other reason than
greed for more patronage on the part of he
publicans why il should not be done there for
for this census.
Under orders from the Republican bosses,
who wish to keep down the total of appropri&
tions at this session of Congress, the House
Military Committee, which mad previously
agreed to increase the annual appropriation
for the support of the National Guard of the
States to 81, ,000, 900 has reduced the amount
to 81 100000.
Only one Democrat in Congress is publicly
supporting Admiral Dewey for tho Democratic
nomination for President. That is REPRE-
sentative Levy, OF N. Y, who is q very nice
gentleman, but who his not been recognized
as one Of the Democratic leaders. Admiral
Dewey now openly says that it is the anti
Bryan Democrats from whom he expects sup
port enough to get the Democratic nomina-
ton, but where he expects to find enough Of
that brand of Democrats to come within hun
drcd miles OF nominating him, is something
that is beyond the comprehension of ordinary
folk. A proposition in connection with Ad
miraI pewey's CHndidacyis being talked about
N Washington and il would bc & good thing
TO carry cut. II i3 that Admiral Dewey and
Col. Bryan shall pledge themselves TO support
the ticket nominated by the Kansas City Con-
vention, before thei" names are presented as
candidates. Every Bryan man to whom this
proposition has been submitted has endorsed
it. Admiral Dewey says he will make public
this week u statement Of his position on public
questions. Itis awaited by the public with
more curiosity than anxiety.
