IN,A SAP CONDITION. Ik* bHMIeu Ikrtr M Ika Hkon ®f tk* F®o» Mto* Wk* fa Wmlttor tor k**MtkktW Tara fa, A large number of Republican politicians, «t greater and lea* degree, hare beak interviewed in rariom, parte of the country within the last few weeks regarding the prospect for their party in the approaching Presidential campaign. Nobody can have read many each interview* without being struck 'with the unanimity with which all these politicians confess that they are trusting to lock for success next year. As n rale they say that the Republican* will carry the election, bat whan pressed for an explanation as to how they will do it, they alway s fall back upon the theory that there will be a Labor candidate for President; that he will drawoff about twice as many votes from the Democrats as from the Republicans; and that the lie publican nominee will thus slip in. tn other words, they virtually confess that on n square test between the old parties the Republicans are beaten itefpre the light opens, but they trust to lock that something will torn np by which their party may win, without any reference . to the question of merits. It is curious to observe how completely the old “issues,” which have so long been the stand-bys of the Republicans ore now disposed ot There was the * •scare" argument; to begin with, which did such excellent service so long as the Republicans were in power and could fool business men and laboring men into the belief that a Democratic administration “involves financial, industrial and commercial peril,” to quote the words of the Massachusetts platform in 1884. Rut with ■* business better then it was in 1884, and with the increased deposits showing that the laboring men are able to save more than ever before, it is simply red 1culoni to tell business men or iaborihg men that the country will be “rained” if a Democrat is again elqoted.

The “rebel claims, “rebel pension*," end “rebel debt" bugaboos ■here also been done (or. There may be pieces In the backwoods where a Republican stump speaker would still venture to get off those ancient “gaga," but among respectable people nobody longer has the assurance to talk that sort o! nonsense. And it had a tremendous hold upon intelligent people only three years ago. If they would be honest about It, tens of thousands of men, who now sec that there was no foundation for their dread, would oonfeas that they were only frightened into voting for Blaine In 1884, against their convictions, by the “view-with-alarm” plank about the “rebel claim” business. < -The State-rights issue has gone the same way with the “ruin" and the “rebel claims.” That a Democratic President would have the chance to fill vacancies in the Supreme Court with ;. men who believe in State-rights, and that this would be dangerous to the Nation, was once an effective argument. But the ■ Supreme Court itself, while composed entirely of justices appointed by Republican Presidents, has made it of no avail in future, for that court has settled the State-right* issue In a way which no Democrat wants to unsettle, and Justice Miller has declared that “the autonomy of the States, and their power to regulate their domestic affairs" are now established uson a firm basis. The “solid South” cry no longer frightens any body. It used to be urged that if the Democrats came into power, they would virtually re-enslave the negroes, make the South uninhabitable by Northern men, and generally ,*' cutup all manner of mischief. Bat the negroes themselves admit that they better off than ever before, Northern men are settling in the South in steadily growing numliers and the reflations between the rates are found by such observers as General Armstrong of Hampton, a Union soldier and Republican, to be more kindly than at any previous time since ’the war. On - the sectional issue all that the Republicans have'to offer is. the assurance, for which they may appeal with confidence to their record in the past, that if they are restored to power, there • * will be more “outrages" in the South than there hare been since Mr. Cleveland was inaugurated: but it may be doubted whether even “Bill” Chandler or General Tuttle would venture to • stump the country on that basis

Alter an, when one conies to renew the held, it b not *o evil u it appear* at first thought that the Republican managers are trusting to luck in 1888. Ail of their old devices are deed up, and they see as plainly as anybody else that no new ones can lie indented to take their place*. So it is that the organisation. which, as a “party of moral ideas,” elected Abraham Lincoln in 18*0, rests ite hope of rictory in 1888, not upon the promise to the wisest voters of the best candidate, but upon the ehance that a Labor nominee for President will draw more foolish voters from the party than from it* __N. T. Pul. AN EXCELLENT RECORD. Talk Lm*n Several Republican papers have recently taken occasion to deny the statement that more pension work b now being dona ia the IPension Bureau and In Congress than ever before. The ^statement b true, and the bureau has the figures to show it. The aumber of private pension bills whieh have passed Congress and been approved by the President ia two years b double the number Hayes signed, and more than both Grant and Hayes or Garfield and Arthur signed. These fear, in the fifteen years from 1370 to 1888. approved LAM ;private pension bills. President Cleveland, in the two years from 1888 to 1887, approved 888 sack bills, over half as many. If the proportion continues to hold good Hr. Oovelaad will sign two hundred more pension biUs in four years than Grant Hayes, Garfield and Aithnr did in fifThe number of pension certificate* of alt classes issued from July, 1888, to July, 1887, double these from July, to July. MSA and 811000, 000 more paid there are now about 402,000 ewer 5A000 since July, 1888. as against an increase of 4LOOO from July. 1888, to July. 188A —The organs of tthe Republican party have only one motto, and if you keep that ia mind yon trill understand Jt £& we go to the r. in.

THE OLD SOLDIERS. ' In their eager deaire to make out an mrnlial antagonism between President Cleveland and the old soldiers, the Republican politicians undertake to dispute the toot that the present administration has pot more Union veterans in office than were given position under Republican rale. The toot remains. however, a sober, serious, unquestionable fact It is true, and the unalterable records stand as irrefutable evidence of the fact The great Interior Department Which list as its head a fortneT **rcbelv” affords S brilliant example of this fact A comparison of the official register of the department, showing the roster of officers on October L 1884. being the last issued under President Arthur’s Administration, gives a total of 770 veteran Union soldiers and sailors employed under the department at that time. On February L 1087, however, with Secretary Lamar, the ex-Confederate, at the bead of the department there were sixtyfour more Union veterans on the roll the total at that date being 834. The total number of employes at present aggregates 3,GOO. and the list was certainly not 60 large on the 1st of October, 1884, so' that the ex-Confederate Secretary, carryiug out the general policy of President Cleveland with exceptional vigor, has given a much larger percentage of the offices under his control to Union veterans than did his Republican predecessor. A similar comparison of the rolls ot the other departments would show that the same policy has prevailed every where under this Admiais! "ttion. Almost without exception, whenever a Union soldier or sailor has gone oat his place has been filled by the appointment of another Union veteran. This course has been so invariably followed that such exceptions as can be discovered are only of the kind that prove the rule. In addition a number of new appointments have been made to positions not heretofore filled by Union veterans.—St. I Amis Republican.

TUTTLE’S QUEER RECORD. Vtet Omrtl Farrar AMI Iba >'otorloaa Iowa Madiral. General Bernard G. Farrar, who succeeded General Tuttle at Natchea during the war, is one of those who are highly incensed that Tuttle should hare taken the prominent part he did in trving to prevent President Cleveland coming to the G. A. K. encampment here this fall. In an interview General Farrar sa.rs that immediately on taking command of the department at Natchea he began the investigation of scandalous rumors afloat concerning General Tuttle. He found that prominent planters had been frequently arrested without warrant of law and discharged without apparent reason. Ihe testimony of citizens showed that a St. Louis lawyer named Hart claimed to have the ear of General Tuttle, aud to be able to influence the General, This influence, he alleged, could only be exerted by a ••fair divide,’" aud it happened that all arrested planters who paid Hart his- price were as quickly discharged. This sort of thing. General Farrar says, created great scandal in the Union lines, and although the matter was kept as Juiet as possible, it soon became pttbc, and Union soldiers were pitilessly arraigned in Natchez as cot ton jobbers. Gederal Farrar made a report to General Slocnm of his investigations, and on that report Tuttle was asked to resign. a fact which, Farrar says, even Utfiou soldiers considered an outrage, when developments pl.-uuly showed Tuttle should have been dismissed. But in consequence of the incident already mentioned, Tuttle is said to be kuown in Natchez as “Landau Tuttle.” General Farrar is a Republican, a member of the G. A. R- in good standing. and commanded the Thirtieth Missouri regiment. He declares that Tuttle should be repudiated try the Grand Army.—St Lomu cor. Chicagc Herald. DRIFT OF OPINION. -General Tuttle's reputation would have been in better trim to-day if he had defended the Union by means of a substitute.—Chicago Sews. ——Mr. Blaine, it seems, can not prevail upon Mr. Gladstone to come to America. But can't Mr. Gladstone prevail on Mr. Blaine to remaiu in England?—Chicago Times. -Rev. R.K.R Bun-hard has been interviewed on the Grand Army business. He sympathises with Tuttle, but evidently thinks the General has made a fool of himself.—8L Louis Republican. -Now the statement is that “Blaine of Maine—Right" on tile Kansas Pacific documenU was a brother— a long deferred brother If a strawberry mark can be produced the stoyy is complete. —Albany (H.

THK PONY EXPRESS. The death of B«b Halliday continues to Inhi stories at the totals and speculaNotts and triumphs St OveHdnd trans* toorttttiiott before tbs period at tranacoafattsntol railroading, says the Springfield (Maas.) Republican. Halliday was a born apeenlntor and organiser. Back at bim Stood W. H. Russell, at St. Loots, wbo real!]' originated both tbs Pike’s Peak and Overlaad^Kxpress Company and the fasaoos jwmy express .altboegh Halliday was the add-re agent and ultimately became the owner. In 1869 RnsseU sent Halliday to Bali Lake to sublet a contract to supply the Government with floor at three and one-hslf cents per pound. Bat thetransporUlicn was twenty-two and one-halt cents more. Halliday discovered that Brightnu Young bad wheat in great quantity stored op, and bargained with bim to mill and deliver it tor seven cents, fay which Halliday cleared $180,000 by keeping his eyes open. Mr. RnsseU had organised the Pike’s Peak and Overland Express, bat Halliday was made president, advanced $40,000 and then foreclosed on the property, which he after a time sold to Weils, Fargo A Co. for $2,000,000 The pony express was a branch of the overland company. All mail had been previous to 1800 carried by the Pacific Mail Company; A Hew stage rente bad been organised to rta south of the snow line in opposition to the overland express. The time for the trip Was calculated at twenty days^nd after a million had been spent upon it the announcement appeared in the papers that on the tjth of April, 1880, pasties would start bom (in Francisco and from St. Joseph, the ridsrs along the overland express roots being provided with frequent relays. There were no less than ten thousand people gathered at St. Joseph as the pony started west bom the banks of ihe M issonri, and in eight days and four horns the letters were delivered at San Francisco. The pony ex* press walked off with the Government contracts and, as letters were five dollar* beside postage, there was money in it. POINTS FOR THE PARSON.

Theological AMm Imparted to Him by a WMUra Vigilance Committee. A young man who recently graduated from an Eastern theological school went eat to Murray, in the Cosur d'Alene country, to take charge of a church, says the Omaha Republican. The largeet gambling hall in town was cleared for his accommo datlon the first Sunday, one table on which Spanish monte was usually dealt being left for him to stand behind. A large stock register-book was Uld on thiv which was •apposed to represent the Bible. The whole town turned ‘ out, and the young divine preached a powerful sermon. In It he strongly denounced gambling, horse-rac-ing, drinking and profanity. That afternoon he was called on by a committee ol leading citisens, one of whom said: “Pardner, thar’s a little matter we’d likt to talk over with ya.
