Parker a Disappointment.

lPittsburg Times,
The farther the Presidential cam
paign progresses and the better the
people get to know Judge Alton r.
Parker. the Democratic nominee Tor
the chief magistracy OF the Nation,
the more firmly it is established that
OF ali the men named by the Democ
racy in the past forty four years tbs
least acceptable and the least fitted
for that exalted position is the mar
running In the year 1874
1t Is not merely partisan exaggera-
ton to say that Democrat has
never, during that period, named for
the Presidency so wholly incarabl.
and incompetent a candidate as Judge
Parker, by his own words and acts,
has shown himself to be. His iguo-
rance OF public affairs Is something
astounding. 1t seems almost unbe
lisvsble that a man Of his years, and
having held the position he occupied
in the judiciary of the State OF New
York, could possibly be so grossly
ignorant of questions aud issu upon
which even the most unlea ned aud
uncbservant OF our citizenship have al
least such 2 knowledge as enables
them to cast their ballots with ordina.
~ intelligence and Judgment
Judging solely from his public ut.
tefances as a candidate tor the high
est office in the gift of the people,
Mr.. Parker must have for years led
the life OF political hermit. 1t Is
uncomfortable that any man who kept
in the faintest touch with events
could know as little alb out them as he
seems to know. Not one of his de-
liverences upon those E uestions which
most deeply concern the whole peo-
Pile, and OF which, as possible Pres
ident, he should certainly have
knowledge and understanding, has
escaped the just and successful criti-
cism of his opponents. or has failed
to evoke the feeble defense of his
friends. Apology, explanation and
REPUTATION have marked everything he
has said.
His speech of acceptance was a fat
failure, and required his own expla
nation to his friends before it was
hardly more than laid before the
country. His formal letter of accep-
tance was no more successful. His
recent speech on the Philippines met
with immediate contradiction, both
as to facts and figures, capped by the
statements Of Gov. Wrig hit, the exec
utive of the islands, and himself
Democrat. His speech on the tariff
called forth only ridicule. None but
the nlerest amateur in political econ-
omi,s would have been guilty of it.
Judge Parker's latest utteiances on
governmental expenditures--and in
this he was but tame follower of his
Anticipated colleagues on the National
ticket, Henry G. Davis--has met no
better fate. In fact, it scarcely need.

Street Car Conductors Not to Be Tried.
in Police Court.

Prosecuting Attorney Mullowny in the
United States branch Of the Police SQUIRT
today abandoned the cases against the five
former conductors of the Washington Rail-
way Company, who were arrested recently
for alleged embezzlement of car tickets
from their company. That action, he in
formed Judge Scott, was necessary be-
cause an indictment had been returned
against the men by the grand jury yester-
day, and the matter is pending in the up
per court.
Attorney Campbell Darlington, counsel
for the defendants. protested and declared
that 1t was an extraordinary thing for an
indictment to be returned against n person
while the charge was pending in the Police
Court. He called the courts attention to
the treatment given his clients at the time
of their arrest, and told of hearing held
at the fourth precinct police station, when
they were refused counsel. The matter. he
said, had been laid before the Department
of Justice by his clients.
Judge Scott sustained Prosecutor Null
lowry and hearing Of the cases in the
Police Court was dropped Those under
charges are: Floyd Holland, French G.
Miner, William H. Flaherty, William +.
hewitt and William E. Shaver.
