PRESIDENT GARFIELD.
DAVID DAVIS Is na relation to Chief
Justice "Weight"
SENATOR OONEUKO'S top knot IB
twisted tighter than ever.
THE disappointed cabinet makers
can now devote their energies to news
tlnkerings.
GENERAL GABFIELD'S administra
tion began in storm and will end in
sunshine. *
HAVING finished up the storm busi
ness , Yennor Is now giving Hazen &
quiet pointer on gales.
WE mbs the usual democratic remarks -
marks that the new president isn't.a
man of strong convictions.
THE veto of President Hayes on
the funding bill was short and to the
point At leist the'bankers think so.
THE Inhabitants of the Transvaal
are expert marksmen. The English
now appreciate the efficacy of small
bores.
AKD now the rural exchanges have
ceased to cepy the stereotyped remark
about the new administration marchIng -
Ing in and the old March-ing 4th.
A DEMOCRATIC lobbyiit In Illinois
Is named Buzzard. He frequents the
legislature about appropriation time ,
because "where tho.carcass is , there
the buzzards do most congregate. "
ALL the prestige won by Hitchcock
and through his literary bureau ,
couldn't dlepel the odor which hung
about his record. Hence the failure
of that cabinet appointment scheme.
PRESIDENT GAKFIELD enters into of
fice M the chief executive of a nation
of 51,000,000 Inhabitants. He will
retire , eight years hence from a gov
ernment ruling over 65,000,000 of pee
ple.
THE state board of discrimination
will be watched with close attention
at their coming cession and the plausi
ble arguments of railroad managers
will not be accepted by the people as
an excuse for another steal from the
tax-payers of this state.
CHARLES A. DANA , of the New
York Sun , has lost his occupation ,
and the stereotyped "His fraudul-
oncy , " will be melted up and cast
Into type more befitting the presi
dency of the United States.
THE farmers in and about Middle-
town , New York , have organized a
company fet the purposa of selling
milk. Its capital stock is $10,000 , in
shares of $1 each. In the interests
of consumers , it is to be hoped that
they will refrain from watering their
stock. v
THE Milwaukee Republican thinks
that the orthography of Joe Me dill ,
of the Chicago Tribune , would be a
fatal objection to his appointment a8
Indian commissioner. It wouldn't dote
to introduce the Medillian system of
spelling among the Indians.
THE monopolies are chuckling over
the fact th'at freight rates will in
some instances be advanced nnder the
new railroad law. The people will
have an opportunity to learn baforo
two years are over , what freight rates
are just and equitable and having
provided that they shall ba uniform ,
they will next make them reasonable.
THE railroad managers are likely to
fail la the conspiracy which they are
now orcanlzing to make the operation
of the Doanc'rallro&d law at distaste
ful as possible to the shippers of this
state. Two years' trial may serve to
show its defects , but the' corporations
may ba certain that those defects will
finally be remedied In the interest of
the producers of { this state and not for
the benefit of the monopolies.
No greater evidence of the growing
strength of the anti-monopoly move
ment throughout the country is need
ed than tha petitions which have
poured into Washington protesting
against the confirmation of Stanley
Watthowa and Eliot F. Shepard.
Shepard is a son-in-law of Yanderbilt
and u district attorney would have
the supervision of cases now pending
against the Central railroad company
for shirking taxes to the amount of
? 137,000.
ENGLAND li becoming alarmed over
the increased emigration to America.
The London Standard after estim
ating that during the past year Great
Britain has presented this country
with nearly $300,000,000 , laments
.bitterly that the vast stream of emi
gration cannot ba diverted to the
colonies. "We m y need our bono
and sinew yet , but the bold peasantry
once destroyed cannot be supplied
againv says the Standard In conclud
ing its article on the subject. When
Great Britain ceases making her
country impossible for a bold and
liberty peasantry to reside In , it will
bo time enough for her journals to
lament their departure.
MB. FINK , the commissioner of the
Eastern pool , is making the vain at
tempt to proro that the railroads of
the United Stales are paying less than
fonr per cent , on tbo capital invested.
Mr. Fink ingeniously brings in the
thirty or forty roads partly built or
abandoned which are paying no inter
est on their capital , and thus reduces
the overage on roads like the Union
Pacific which is paying nearly forty
per cent , on the actual money
invested. A glance at the stock list
' gives the lie direct to Mr. Fink's im
plied assertions that the majority of
American raU roads are not p&ying
heavy dividends on stocks watered to
twice and three times their actual
value.
THE LTE ADMINISTRATION.
The four years administration of
Ex-president Hayes will over be
classed as o-e cf the purest
and best in the political
history of the United States- .
Entering the White House amid
the trying circumstances of a dis
puted electoral vote , enduring
throughout his term of office the con
stant and unwearying hostility ot an
opposition who held control of the
legislative branch of the government ,
and hampered in the execution of his
policy by a factious antagonism in the
ranks of his own party , the ex-presi
dent has nevertheless left his impress
for good upon our national politics
and retires with a record of which
no American need be ashamed.
Four years ago , when the
reins of government were given
into the hands of Presidon Hayes , the
csuntry was staggering under the
effects of financial , commercial and in
dustrial depression. A depreciated
currency wasstill in circalation.eleven
years after the clcie of tbe civil strife
which called it into extstenca. Amer
ican industry was producing but half
its capacity , our mills and furnaces ,
forges and looms were working on re
duced time. Our laborers imd mechanics -
chanics were earning reduced wages
and our merchants receiving reduced
interest on their business investment.
The late administration found the
republican party disorganized and In
ahopeless majority in the national con
gress. The reckless extravagance of the
preceding administration , corruption
in public office and countless scandals
among office holders some of which
had stained tbo skirts of the outgoing
members of the cabinet , the dishonett
distribution of federal patronage as
the reward of personal service to con
gressmen and senators had created
within the rante ot the patty an op
posing element. It converted a three-
foflrlhs republican majority in con
gress to a helpless minority and
alienated from the party thousands of
its former supporters and a number of
its founders. President Hayes enter
ed upon the discharge of his duties by
calling around him a body of advisors
of high reputation , acknowledged
ability and unquestioned integrity.
Every branch of the public service
has felt their influence for good. The
nation at large owes a greater debt of
gratitude to the late secretary of the
traasury than it can ever repay. Re-
jsumption of specie payments and
financial , commercial and industrial
stability have taken place since the
dark days when the administration of
President Hayes first cimc in power.
The civil service has never presented
a purer and cleaner record than dur
ing the past fonr years and carping
foreign criticism has bean forced in
to a tone of outspoken praise when
the subject of the govenment , the
financial or industrial condition of
the United States has been under its
discussion.
To his own party the late
administration has been of equal ser
vice. It found th ? republican party
disorganized and weak from a drawn
battle in which congress had been lost
and the presidency hardly won. It
leaves it once moro in control of
the legislative branch of the national
government , strong in the confidence
of the people of the union and with
a chief executive whose tenure of of-
fioo cannot bo questioned ? It loaves
It with a pirty from which the most
corrupt of its leaders aud henchmen
have been dethroned , with factional
estrangement almost eradicated and
with an executive fully in harmony
with the best elements of republican
ism. To the record made by the ad
ministration of President Hayes more
than to any one other cause was due
the triumphant election of General
Garfield , and the republican parly
will ba indeed'ungrateful if they fail
to recognize his jreit cervices in their
behalf.
That the late administration
made serious mistakes cannot detract
from the praise which is justly due it.
Sad President Hayes and his cabi
net accomplished nothing moro
than resumption and the revival of
Business which followed its operation ,
ilstory would not have neglected the
recitrl of the event ta ono of the great
eras in 'our national annals. But to
.his must be added the remarkable
funding operations of Secretary Sher
man , the maintenance of peace j < t home _
and abroad , the elevation aud purifies *
tion of the civil service in all its
iranches. When these are taken into
consideration , no fair and unbiassed
citizen of the country will deny that
.he late administration gave up the
government , leaving behind them a re
cord no less creditable to thcmselyes
.ban honorable to the whole nation
whose Interests for four years they
watched and administered with abi
lity , fidelity and spotless integrity.
ALBERT FIKK fears the "dangerous
temper" of the producing classes to
wards the corporate enterprises of the
country. Mr. Fink ought to know
whereof he speaks. As commissioner
ot the eastern pool which has raised
and lowered the rates on produce with
a reckless disregard of everything but
; he corporation coffers , Mr. Fink has.
iad as much to do with exciting a just
eeling of antagonism towards the
railroads as any ono other railway
subordinate in the country.
GOVERNOR NANCE has vetoed Re-
) resentative Schick's bill which im-
powered counties , precincts , villages ,
school districts , towns and cities to

ernor Nance deserves commendation

"Are you the general passenger
agent of this road. ' '
The inquirer was a young man who
seemed terribly in earnest. His
hair was long , his clothes shabby gen
teel , and his remarks were addressed
to the manager of one of our leading
trunk lines.
"Yes sir. What can I do for yon ? "
"I would like a pass to Baltimore
by the wav of Cleveland. "
"On what account ? "
"I am an inventor , sir. "
"Who are you ? "
"S. Edison Hershel , rf Oshkosh. "
"Don't know you. What have you
Invented. "
The young man looked around un
easily , and said :
"Are wo alone ? "
'We are , proceed. "
Lowering his voice to the key of a
stage whisper , he said :
"I am the inventor of the"'Luna-
' "
scope.
"Luny what ? "
"The ' ' the most
'Lunascope ; won
derful invention of the nineteenth
century. "
"What Is It for ? "
" it is Refiectome-
"Why , au Optical -
ter , whereby I can throw the term
St. Jacobs Oil in scintilating letters
acroes the face of the moon. "
A peculiar sclntilation was observ
able around the corners of the official's
eyes , but otherwise his countenance
was petfegtly mobile.
" 1 have just come , " continued the
inventor , "from a confidential inter
view with Mr. Peter Van
Schaack , of the 'Old Salamander Drug
House. ' I entrusted my secret to him.
Ho commends mo to yon most warm

am that the invention will save over
three hundred thousand dollars a year

the pass at once. I may be able to
overtake Messrs. A. Vogeler & Co.'s
advertising manager at Cleveland on

the invention for $200,000 , which is
very low. "
