MUzzLING DEPARTMENT FOLKS.

When Judge Parker received the editors he took occasion to say some thing about the extravaganza of the government under Republican rule at Washington. When Teddy" acts. he acts promptly and at once. He did not brood over the question of how to meet the charge of his opponent; he issued an order instanter that nothing should be given out at the capitol by any official that would go to show how much money will be necessary to run the government for the next year in any department of the government Estimates are to be kept secret until after the election. Estimates are in tended for Congress and there is no necessity for the general public know ing how much the several heads of de- partments conjecture this or that branch of their work will cost the tax payers.
 We invite any reader to stick a pin right here in what we are saying: the last Congress acted under hurry orders from the President to get through with their work and to spend as little as they could consistently with carrying on the big schemes the Republicans had on hand. Chop. chop" was the motto. Nevertheless the Republicans had been going at such pace that with all their chopping they put out an appropriation act that exceeded in the amount appro- priated any other previous law in our history. The Republican Party is headed straight for catastrophe of some sort. It is spending more money than it is taking in; 1t is exhausting its reserves and it has nothing whatever to draw on but hurrah for a fighty am bilious young man who wants to sue ceed himself in the White House. Per sonally he is anxious to shut up talk for the moment; to give the easy-going optimistic American something else to

THE NEGRO IN ArnIc.

The Baltimore Sun makes merry over petition addressed to the State De- pertinent by certain negroes born in the United States, now sojourning in South Africa. The Dutch settlers there have never at any time treated the natives otherwise than as interiors and one regulation they enforced was that no black man could use a sidewalk: he had to walk in the middle of the street. The English enforce the same rule and hence the complaint sent home by our colored brethren. They want the United States to take up the matter with Great Britain and secure sidewalk privileges for American negroes at the Cape. The Sun thinks this is a golden opportunity for the President still further to solidify his ebony support and strengthen his chances in the doubtful States.
 Of course the administration Is DOW erless to accomplish anything in the presence, but the bluster they are in- dulging in toward Russia in order to Js goes to prove they stand ready to take any chances of being ridiculed. if they can pull the wool over a few voters eyes.
 In Maryland where the race question is the dominant issue this year. there Is naturally much glee over the plight of the colored brother in South Africa. There is no lesson however in this re- monstrance from over the sea, except to make plain what the South has always contended to be the truth that the negro gets better treatment here than in any other quarter of the globe; has more opportunities, Is more prosper ous and more contended. This Is com monplace fact, but 1t Is one that many even of the most intelligent people at the North overlook.

THE PRESIDENTS CONSISTENCY.

In his letter of acceptance the Presi- dent lays much stress upon consistency and he laughts merrily. if he can be taken ever to have laughed at all, at the muddled state of mind amongst Demo- crats, while he holds up to public gaze the perfect unity of opinion amongst Republicans. This is plain conceit on his part. He is unanimous for his own election and he cheerfully believes every member of his Party is in agree ment with him. They may be so, but altogether they cannot deceive the peo- pie generally as to the inconsistent character of their candidate.
 He made his debut into public life as a member of the American Free Trade League and as a member of the Golden Club in London. He accom- plished his election to membership in the New York Legislature and invited the attention of the country by posing there as the enemy of the criminal rich class" He went west to restore his health rand squandered there a small personal fortune he had inherited and returned to the East to earn il he could. a livelihood with his pen. He was able to get a nomination by the Republican organization for the mayoralty of New York City. was decisively beaten and was glad to take refuge in Washington as a member of the Civil Service Commission and butter his bread with the small salary at tached to this post.
 It is not to be disputed he made the office of a civil service commissioner a conspicuous one. He goaded every man he encountered that promised him publicity. He was hot in his pursuit of Senator German, for German was a conspicuous man and to attack him was to invite attention. He got much good advertising in this office of Civil Bervice Commissioner and more than all he learned his lesson of how to put himself before the people as an ambi tious, a willing candidate for any sort of notice.
 It was here he broke with his pro- claimed moral purposes and ideals. He wanted to get on, was so intensely eager to get on, that 1t Is impossible to find in his later life any one bit of conduct that has not written all over it the perfect manifestation of this desire on his part to get on. He has eaten his words about a reform of the tarin he has eaten his words about the re- from of the civil service; he has eater
  dard; there is not one thread that goes through his early political life that car be found in his life of today. unless 1t be an inordinate and ungovernet ambition.

Toombs and Walker.

Editor Advertiser:
 While in Montgomery a few weeks ago. had the pleasure of being shown through the Confederate archieves by the very affable and intelligent Mir. Thomas M. Owen. who is in charge. We naturally fell into a reminiscent mood. eral l.. P. Walker. I told him of one of the numerous conversations I had had with the distinguished citizen while we were in attendance on the Consti- tutional Convention of 1875. He, as President. and myself an humble mem- Der. We both boarded at the Exchange Hotel whose walls, If they could talk, could tell of numerous and wonderful political as well as other escapades. Be 1t remembered that MT: Walker. was Secretary of War in MT. Davis first cabinet. He told me what transpired in cabinet meeting the night before the firing upon Fort sumpter; Mir. Davis separately, to give his opinion of so doing. which each and every one did In advocacy of doing so, until Mir Toombs who was Secretar-- of State was asked for his opinion. General Walker said that MT Toombs arose in that grand style of his and said: MT. President: The firing upon Fort Sum- ter will inausurate the bloodiest war that ever shook an empire" He sat the rest. MT. Toombs was regarded as extreme end cratic by most men. and did say a great many extreme things. The above was given as an illustration of the calmness and discretion dis played by him in extreme moments While referring to General Walker. I must that he was one of the most genial and interesting men 1t was ever my pleasure to know, and I have long felt that the people of Alabama never showed him the consideration and ap- preciation that his ability entitled him to- MT. Owen asked me to pen this Other distinguished men have also asked me to do the same, as 1t Is a scrap of history not before written. I hope that the reason for writing this will be appreciated.

sCHURZ ON THE STUMP.

It will be cheering news to Demo- crats everywhere to learn the Hon. Carl Schurz has been engaged by the National Committee to make a large number of speeches in the State of H. linois. This is good news for two req sons. It shows, first, that the Nation al Committee is not acquiescing in any chicken hearted policy with respect to any of the great Western States. It is plain they will put up a most deter- mined fight in Illinois, and we have felt sure ourselves that the prospects for the Party are as good there or bet ter than in Indiana. A strong contest waged there means a strong costest throughout the Middle West, just as a strong contest in New York means a like contest in Connecticut and New Jersey and throughout the East.
 The second point is the personality of MT. Schurz himself. He Is not only the most eminent German in the Uni- ted States, he is one of the most emil nent of Americans. He is the master of both the English and German lan- guages, speaks as eloquently in one as in the other and has always had a large following among the intelligent German voters in the country. These are a distinctly thoughtful and inde- pendent class and MT. Schurz's work among them is sure to tell on the re- suit in November.

There was nothing for Governor Cunningham to do but to send the troops to Huntsville in view Of the statements made to him and the people at large will endorse the con duct of Judge Speake in so using the attempt at rescue of prisoners.
