CURRENT COMMENT.

The Philadelphia Record (Dem.I says:
'It makes very little difference to the
country or to the course of justice
whether Judge Swayne, OF Florida has
charged expenses that he never incur
red in holding court outside his dis
trict. Improper as il would be, II would
only amount to a. small robbery of the
government. But this is the charge on
which lawyers believe his impeach-
ment is most likely to be ordered by
the House and sustained by the Senate.
The really serious charges against him
are acts of Partially and injustice. but
the lawyers say that II is difficult to
make crimes out of these or to secure
the removal of a judge for misdeme-
anors."
The Louisville Courier Journal (Dem)
says: 1.-THE principles OF the old party
Of Thomas Jefferson will survive in
this country so long as II shall remain
a republic. and they will inspire some
political party, whether that party be
called Democratic or by some other
name. II there are wise Democratic
leaders at Washington they will see TO

principles rather than to flock on any

Mr.. Carnegie's Prize Letter.

andrew Carnegie is the best adyer-

received more than 100000 begging

Bureau is an overworked institution.
OF all these communications not more
than two or three in thousand ever

the community could do to take care
of its own corporate necessities; that
it was to the moral and physical well
fare of the people to improve their
waterworks themselves, etc. The an
