A half dozen negro dandies arranged a
novel excursion in Washington a few

The Rev. George Dana Boardman, a
Baptist divine of prominence in Philadel
phia. delivered a sermon the other day, in
the course of which he remarked that the
tariff was a device to rob Peter to pay
Paul. He further added that the free
trade theories of vo-day would be the ac
cepted dogmas of to-morrow. The tariff
ami theology may not be germane, but
Dr. Boardman certainly had as clear a

others have to deify Grant.
Dennis Kearney is known as
the sand lot orator, he hasn’t much of
what Californians call “sand." Mr. Chin
Foo, the editor of the Chinese American ,
has ’challenged Kearney to fight a duel
because Kearney lately made some dis

Kearnev declines to fight because, he
says, “some of those interested in slave
labor are trying to get him off on a side
issue.” Mr, Chin Foo will not have an
opportunity to render the country a ser
vice.
The Indian Problem.
It is believed that the plan that has
been adopted, of permitting the Indians
to lease their reservation for a term of
years for grazing purposes, will come
nearer solving the troublesome Indian
problem than any other that has yet been
tried. Several of the tribes in the Indian
Territory have leased immense tracts of
their lands for a period of ten
vears to companies engaged in rais
ing cattle. They receive their
pay in silver and cattle. The
money is distributed by the Indan agents
among all the members of the tribes inter
ested, in accordance with the claims of
each one. The Arapahoes and Cheyennes
leased 600,000 acres of the western part of
their reservation, a week or so ago, for
something over $60,000 a year. One-half
of the amount was paid as soon as the
lease was completed. The money was
taken from Caldwell, Kansas, to the
agency, where each member of the tribe
was paid, on an average, about five dol
lars. The money weighed nearly
two thousand pounds, and was
guarded to its destination by
four Indian scouts. The next payment
falls due Jn January, and will be paid
partly in cattle. The Interior Department
which has sanctioned the leasing of these
reserved lands prefers that payment should
be made in cattle for the reason that it is
believed the Indians, having the example
of the white cattle men constantly belore
them, will be incited to give their atten
tion to the cattle raising industry. 11, for
instance, the Arapahoes, Cheyennes or
Usages receive one half of the yearly ren
tal of their lands in cattle and give proper
attention to their herds, in ten years, the
date of the expiration of their lease, they
will be worth millions of dollars in cattle
alone. Their increasing wealth will turn
their attention more and more towards
agriculture. As their property accumu
lates their desire lor law and order, and
even education, will increase. The scalp
ing knife and war paint will lie discarded
and the habiliments of civilization will be
donned. The Interior Department pro
poses to keep a close watch on this new
method of civilizing the Indians. Care
will be taken that they are not swindled
by the lessees. They will be
assisted, and encouraged in every possible
way. The department has already ad
vised the lessees to employ Indians as
herders whenever such employment is
]>ossihle. In this way the Indians will
become familiar with the business of
raising cattle. If the plan is a success,
it is not improbable that in less than a
score of years many full blooded Indians
will be numbered among our cattle kings.
The Buffalo Courier , after perusing the
Dorsey revelations in the Sun, has this to
say; "We rise trom the perusal of this
miserable narrative with the conviction
that Garfield had no moral right to prose
cute Dorsey; that Arthur had no moral
right to prosecute him; that the Republi
can party had no moral right to prosecute
him. He was the hero of a shameful and
v enal canvass, in which the leaders of the
party bargained for the spoils of office,
assessed the government employes, black
mailed monopolists, accepted the booty of
thieves, and purchased the vote of a
State. And the whole organization ap
proved of the work. Dorsey should be
restored to the pedestal on which the
speech-makers at the Delmonico dinner set
him. He is the typical Republican poli
tician of this generation, and if the party
is fit to be in power, he is certainly tit to
sit in its high places. It is to his credit
that he refused a Cabinet office when
others were engaged in a wild scramble
for spoils, and that, although threatened
with disgrace and the punishment ot a
felon while others were only threatened
with the loss of patronage, he took little
share in the quarrel that culminated in
the murder of the President.”
Is not this all true? A stream cannot
rise higher than its source, and a politi
cal party is no better than its trusted
agents and tools. The Republican party
repudiated Dorsey after it had used him,
and now let the people repudiate the Re
publican party.
Dr. Rauch, the Health Officer of the
State of Illinois, is one of the most active
emissaries of the delunet National Board
of Health. He has been exerting himself
to the utmost to destroy public confidence
in the Mississippi Valley in the Marine
Hospital Service, and to resurrect the
National Board. He hopes that Congress,
next winter, will make appropriations
and enact laws that will restore the in
fluence and jtower of the Na
tional Board. The Louisiana Board
at its last meeting passed resolutions re
questing the Governor of Louisiana to
confer with the Governor ot Illinois on
the propriety of confining Rauch within
the limits of his own State. Rauch is ail
irrepressible sort of an individual and the
Governor of Illinois will have his hands
full if he undertakes to keep Rauch home.
The only successful way to tackle Rauch
is to cut off' his official head.
The man who writes gushing letters is
sure to be brought up some time with a
short turn. A day or two ago Judge Ad
vocate General Swaim said that Garfield
regarded Dorsey as a man who had a
screw loose in his moral nature, and
thought him a cheeky, scaly sort of chap.
Swaim indicated that he concurred in
Garfield’s opinion. In January, 1881,
when the celebrated dinner was given in
New York, in honor of Dorsey, and for
the puri*ose of celebrating his Indiana
achievements, this same Judge Advocate
Swaim wrote:
“My Dear Dorsey? Believe me, 1 am
glad clear down iu my boots at the fitting
and merited compliment you are to re
ceive.”
When Swaim began blackguarding Dor
sey the other day he undoubtedly forgot
that he had written the above letter, and
that Dorsey does not destroy letters,
Some of the most idiotic excuses imagi
nable are given for the excursion which
the President and his friends, as guests of
General Sheridan, are about to make
through tlie Yellowstone Park. It is
said, for instance, that “the amount of
forage that will lie saved during the ab
sence of the government horses from their
usual stations will more than pay the en
tire cost of the trip.” Why should the
President or Sheridan offer any excuse
for making the trip. Sheridan would
make the trip any way on a tour of in
spection, and as the President and friends
will bear their own expenses, thecopt will
be nothing to the government.
A gentleman by the name of Elliott,*
now one ol the proprietors, and the editor
of the Dallas (Texas) Herald, is the di
vorced husband of Mrs. Commodore Van
derbilt. Lately, it is said, Mrs. Vander
bilt invited him to visit her in New York.
He accepted her invitation, and discov
ered that her early affection for him had
revived. Indeed, it is said, she indicated
pretty clearly that she would not object
to marrying him again. She is very rich
and could give Mr. Elliott a splendid
home. The story is that Mr. Elliott de
clined to consider the matter, because
Mrs. Vanderbilt’s mother is still alive.
Was the mother-in-law the cause of the
divorce ?
We are indebted to the New York Times
for an explanation of the game of “fly
loo." It is called a seaside game for rainy
days, but it may be made interesting any?
where. This is the game: “Each player
obtains a lump of sugar and places it on
his or her knee, upon a nickel, or a dime,
or a quarter, or on SIOO, if they feel so dis
posed. Then they gather in a circle, and
the player upon whose lump the first fly
alights takes all the money from the oth
ers." The charm of this game is that it
requires no mental effort. It exactly
meets the requirements of dudes and
dudesses of the summer resorts.
Editor McLean, of the Cincinnati En
quirer, which is rather lukewarm iu sup.

to take things coolly during the heated

ton bill, McLean’s bete noir, has gone into
effect, he may feel less dyspeptic.
Our readers will learn with regret of
the serious condition of Judge Martin J.
Crawford. The distinguished jurist has
served the commonwealth with dignity
and distinction, and his place upon the
Supreme bench would be difficult to fill.
It is to be hoped that he may be spared for
many years of usefulness.
Get at the Facts.
The public was satisfied before the star
routers were brought to trial that they
were guilty, nor did it need Dorsey s dis
closures to beget the popular conviction
thatthe election of Garfield and Arthur was
procured by a draft upon the resources
of corruption unexampled in our pre
vious political history. The Republican
organs affect to discredit Dorsey’s state
ments. They sneer at Brady’s confirma
tion of those statements and
pretend that the campaign of
1880 was fairly conducted. They argue
that as Garfield is dead, his memory
should be held sacred.
No Democrat wishes to pluck one justly
earned laurel from the crown the dead
President won, but every patriotic citizen
has a right to pass judgment upon the
methods which his trusted lieutenant
avows that Garfield approved to secure
the Presidency. The public is pret
ty well satisfied as to the cor
rectness of Dorsey’s statements,
but confirmation can be had in the
near future. A Democratic Congress will
meet next December. IV hat greater ser
vice could it render to the country than
to probe the scandal of the star route
trial and investigate the Republicans’
conduct of the campaign of 1880? The
truth can l>e gotten at, the w itnesses are
at hand, and the basis for the several in
quiries is established.
The Republican party is steeped in in
famy. It has been repeatedly ex
posed, but the corruption of the
Garfield campaign, and the shameful
taroe of the star route trial, of themselves
invite the turning down of Radicalism.
Let Dorsey’s charges be proved by direct
evidence, and let the secret history of the
acquittal of himself and his fellow’ con
spirators be given to the world. Should
the people,when brought face to face with
the proofs of the guilt of the grand old
party, hesitate to turn out the rdscals,
they would merit the fate that continued
Radical supremacy would entail upon
them. Get at the facts.

It Won’t Work.

The Republican press is anxious to fos

Democrats who believe in the vitality of
the "old ticket” so as to create disgust
and indignation in the breasts of the other
Democrats, and thus tend to prevent any
thing like unanimity of sentiment and
mutual confidence within the party. This
policy will not succeed.

THE WESTERN UNION.
A Brief Sketch of the History of a
Powerful Monopoly.
Washington Post.
In view of the general strike of the tel
egraphers a brief history of the Western
Union Company is interesting. It was
organized in 1836 with a capital less than
$400,000. By agreement it obtained the
control of nearly all the railroad tele
graph lines, the 'agreement generally be
ing that the railroad companies should
furnish operators and have all their busi
ness tree over all lines, the Western
Union to take all other receipts and keep
the lines in repair. The railroads still
own the lines.
In 1858 the Western Union made a stock
dividend of 414 per cent., amounting to
$1,598,300. In 1862 another stock dividend
of 27 per cent, was declared; in March,
1863, another of 100 per cent., and in De
cember, 1863, another of 33% per cent.
Then an issue of $2,000,000 stock was
made to pav for purchased lines. In 1864
the stock, then $11,000,000, was doubled
by a stock dividend. After 1864 other
lines were purchased, and without regard
to their actual cost the Western Union
stock was increased to $41,073,410. Upon
the purchase of the Atlantic and Pacific
stock at the rate ot $25 per share, and
representing $3,500,000 as the value of the
whole plant, and then consolidating that
and.the 3lutual Union, the latter not cost
ing for construction over $4,000,000, the
Western Union stock was increased to
$80,000,000, with a bonded debt of over
$5,000,000.
As to cash dividends, the company paid
74)4 in the first ten months and prior to
the great stock dividend of 414 per cent.
After 1838 and up to 1866 the company
paid average dividends of nearly 7 per
cent. From July 1, 1866. to June 30,1877,
the net profits were $82,598,336 43, out of
which $12,121,987 34 were paid in cash
dividends aud the balance mainly ex
pended in constructing new and purchas
ing competing lines. Since 1877 the divi
dends have been 6 per cent, on the whole
stock, and the company lias besides kept
on constructing new lines. In addition
to all this the company lost in 1864 about
$3,000,000 in a Russian line, made useless
by the Atlantic cables.
Humor of the Strike.
Yew York Mail and Key tress.
About 11 o’clock this morning, an old
man of about seventy years, arrayed in a
laded duster and clutching a gripsack in
his hand, entered the Secretary’s office in
the Western Union building. He deposi
ted his gripsack on a chair, and, after
placing his ancient headgear on a table,
remarked to one of the clerks: “I heerd
there was a strike and that youse fellers
was in need ot men. I live over in Jersey,
and I’ve been misfortunate, and I thought
I’d jist come over here to work.”
“Have you ever been in the telegraph
business?” inquired the amused clerk.
“No, to tell the hull honest truth, I never
was. But I’m kinder handy, 1 am, and
can pick anything up right quick. 1
guess 1 can learn all about the telegraph
in two or three days. Say, boss, do you
think I kin ketch on?”
The clerk blandly replied that he did
not believe there was “a ketch” for the
old man. The company had engaged
enough men already.
“Just my luck,” exclaimed the old
man, spitefully, as he took his departure.
Mr. Cobden and Free Trade.
London Times.
An American visitor put the matter on
Saturday in its true light when he said
that moral or political arguments have
comparatively little effect upon the adop
tion of free trade, but that the “actual
pinching of the shoe” made England a
free trade country. 31r. Cobden belonged
to the class which felt the actual pinch
ing of the shoe more acutely than any
other, and his opinions are due to that
circumstance more than to the unparal
leled effort of constructive intellect which
is sometimes assumed by his ad
mirers. It is not very important
to settle his exact place among
the pronhets, though there can, we
imagine, be very little doubt that his ex
pectations of free trade doctrines were
much more sanguine than events have
justified. Like a great many of his fol
lowers, he failed to perceive that while
the free trade theory is irrefragably dem
onstrable on the assumption that to buy
in the cheapest market is the sole or par
amount object of national endeavor, yet
it is totally inapplicable in other circum
stances. If it does not commend itself to
Prince Bismarck, the reason is not that
his mind is inferior in strength and scope
to 3lr. Cobden’s, but that his ideal
is entirely different. The means
appropriate to organize England as
a huge workshop are not suited
for the organization ot Germany as a
gigantic camp. The shoe that pinched
England, a country dependent upon the
sale of its industry for the food it could
not produce at home, did not pinch
America, which contained within its own
far-reaching territory the means of satis
fying every human want. Protection was
theoretically defended in America upon
the ground that though free trade incon
testably favors the growth of wealth.it does
not tend to effect its just distribution,
which for an intrinsically wealthy country
was the more important end of the two.
The Americans have now discovered
that protection is at least as far
as free trade from preventing the
accumulation of enormous fortunes
on one hand, and of great masses of
poor men on the other. A large popula
tion, apparently unwilling to abandon
life in towns and to occupy the lauds
which strangers are rapidly appropria
ting, is further discovering that it must
find foreign markets for its manufactures.
The food producers in the West are find
ing that they are heavily taxed to main
tain a state of things advantageous only
to a minority of wealthy men. lienee
the Democratic party is adopting free
trade, though cautiously, as a plank in
its political platform, and in a few years
more we shall, no doubt, see “revenue re
form,” as it is judiciously called, pushed
to great lengths.
The Grave of Garfield.
Cleveland Herald.
The final resting place of the late Presi
dent Garfield, and the site for one of the
grandest monuments ever erected in the
United States, has at last been determined
upon. The view from this hill is the most
beautiful imaginable. It is indescribably
grand, and undoubtedly the most magni
ficent spot in the State! It is in a south
westerly direction from the original Gar
field knoll, about 100 feet higher, and near
it is a cluster of trees. Looking in a
southerly direction, rich, rolling, farming
land, bordered in the distance by dense
woods, is visible, 'flic cemetery, with its
countless monuments, is immediately at
the foot of the hill, while a straight look
ahead discloses to view a beautiful land
scape, with old Erie in the background.
Cleveland, with its many spires and
domes, can be seen, and an unimpaired
view as far west as Rocky River Point
obtained, with Wade I’aVk and Adelbert
College standing prominent on the fore
ground of the picture. The village of Col
linwood is plainly visible in a northeaster
ly direction, while countless homes, farms,
lovely gardens, winding roadways, and
Cake Erie, dotted with boats, can be seen
at a glance. The work of improving these
grounds, three or five acres of which, or
whatever shall be deemed necessary, is to
be given by the Cemetery Association,
will begin immediately. Convenient road
ways, easy of access, will be laid out.
Trees, flowers and shrubbery are to be
planted, and it is thought that the work
on the structure will begin in about one
year. That part of Lake View chosen is
quite a distance from the cemetery proper,

London Truth.
The Emperor of Russia, in his mani
festo, granted a free pardon to 20,000 or
30,000 political offenders, mostly Poles,
who had taken part in the insurrection of
1863, and to 10,000 or 12,000 thieves and
cut-throats, mostly Russians, The politi
cal offenders have not benefited much by
the Imperial clemency, for most of them
are dead; the thieves, on the other hand,
have thoroughly enjoyed themselves since
their release, cutting purses and cracking
cribs as of vore. Fortunately for honest
folks, the ‘police have displayed great
energy, and ninety per cent, of the par
doned' prisoners are already reinstalled
in their former quarters, to remain there
till a social earthquake or anew corona
tion grants them another brief spell of
liberty and crime.
A South Carolina Claim.
Washington Poet.
The claim of the State of Sonth Carolina
to its share of the proceeds of sales of land
for direct taxes made in 1863 has been
submitted by Mr. Trescot, of this city,
and Judge Campbell, of South Carolina.
A report will probably lie made by the
branch of the Treasury having charge of
the matter to-day, recommending that one
fourth of the amount, $50,000, be refunded.
The law of 1862, under which the sales
were made, provided for the retention of
one-half of the funds realized, one-fourth
being for aiding in the removal of slaves
and the other quarter to compensate loyal
citizens. There are no slaves now, but a
number of loyal citizens are known to
have existed,'and the latter will be en
titled, on coming forward, to their share
of the fund,

A Royal Food Preservative.—Tribune.
“REX MAGNUS,”
fi'llE MIGHTY KING.)
What it is, and What it Does.
IT IS THE
Humiston Food Preservative
and, as its name signifies, is a Mighty King,
an invincible conqueror. It is safe, tasteless,
pure and harmless. Its special field of useful
ness is in the preservation of food, such as fish,
meats, oysters, cream, etc., either in large or
small quantities —and it does it.
Stubborn and Incontestible Truths.
Cream, oysters, meats, etc., preserved by
this method may be carried across the conti
nent. or shipped to Europe, retaining their
freshness and purity without the use of ice or
any refrigerating appliance; or they may be
kept at home for days and week's even in the
hottest weather, improving in taste, besides
saving much time and expense in the cost of
ice and trouble in going to market.
A 35 Days’ Test, in a Temperature
Averaging 70 Degrees.
Prof. Samuel W. Johnson, the well-known
chemist, and for more than 25 years identified
with the Scientific Department of Y’ale Col
lege, furnishes the following report concern
ing Rex Magnus:
"My tests of 35 days in daily mean tempera
ture of 70 degress, on meats,’ etc., bought in
open market have certainly been severe and I
am satisfied that the different brands of ltex
Magnus, the Humiston Food Preservative,
with which I have experimented, have accom
plished all claimed for them. So far as I have
yet learned then are the only jrreparations that
are effective, and at the same time practicable,
for domestic use. At the banquet on ’treated'
meats at the New Haven House I could not
distinguish between those which had been 16 days
in my laboratory and those nevly taken from
the refrigerator of the hotel. The oysters were
perfectly palatable and fresh to my taste, and
better, as it happened, than those served at
the same time, which were recently taken
from the shell. The roast beef, steak,chicken,
turkey and quail were all as good as I have
ever eaten.
Rex Magnus fc* safe, tasteless, pure, and Prof.
Johnson adds in his report: “I should antici
pate no ill results from its use and consider it
no more harmful than common salt."
Thousands of Trials.
k'itch a test, and it is but one of many which
have been made, ought to satisfy the most ex
acting skeptic. Ample corroborative testi
mony can he furnished.
Rex Magnus is a perfect and reliable substi
tute for ice, heat, sugar, salt or alcohol, in
preserving food, which retains its natural
flavor andsweetnesß, in all seasons and clim
ates, after having been treated with this Rex.
Destioys Germs of Disease.
Rex Magnus opposes and prevents putre
faction by the utter destruction or holding at
bay of those parasites that prey upon organic
matter. In the same manner it destroys all
germs of disease, thus rendering the food
wholesome and healthful.
It is Safe, Tasteless, Pure, Harmless.
The different brands of Rex Magnus are:
“Viandine,” for preserving meats, poultry
and game, 50c. per to.; “Ocean Wave,” for
preserving oysters. lobsters, etc., 50c. per tb.;
“Pearl,” for preserving cream, SIOO per tb.;
“Snow Flake,” for preserving milk, cheese,
butter, etc., 50c. per tt>.; “Queen,” for pre
serving eggs, $1 00 per tb.; “Aqua-Vitae,” for
keeping fluid extracts, etc., SIOO per tb.;
“Anti-Ferment,” “Anti-Fly” and “Anti-
Mold” are special preparations, whose names
explain their uses, each 50c. per tb.
Do not confound this with the worthless
compounds wliicli have preceded it. This
succeeds where all others have failed.
How to Get It.
You do not have to buy a costly recipe uor
county right. We sell neither one nor the other!
If your grocer, druggist or general store
keeper does not have it m stock, we will send
you a sample pound package, of any brand
desired, except Aqua-Vitae and Anti-Fer
ment, which we put up in bottles, upon re
ceipt of price. Mention the Morning News.
Rex Magnus is cheap, simple in its use, a
chibi can use it, unfailing in its effects and
healthful. Try it and you will say so too.

[From the Boston Globe.}
Mesm *. Editors :—
The above is a good likeness of Mrs. Lydia E. Pink
ham, of Lynn, Mass., who above all other human beings
may be truthfully called the “Dear Friend of Woman,”
as some of her correspondents love to call her. She
is zealously devoted to her work, which is the outcome
of a life-study, and is obliged to keep six lady
assistants, to help her answer the large correspondence
which daily pours in upon her, each bearing its special
burden of suffering, or joy at release from it. Her
Vegetable Compound is a medicine for good and not
evil purposes. I have personally investigated it and
am satisfied of the truth of this.
On account of its proven merits, it is recommended
and prescribed by the best physicians in the country.
One says: “It works like a charm and saves much
pain. It will cure entirely the worst form of falling
of the uterus, Leucorrhcea, irregular and painful
Menstruation, all Ovarian Troubles, Inflammation and
Ulceration, Floodings, all Displacements and the con
sequent spinal weakness, and is especially adapted to
the Change of Life.”
It permeates every portion of the system, and gives
new life and vigor. It removes faintness, flatulency,
destroys all craving for stimulants, and relieves weak
ness of the stomach. It cures Bloating, Headaches,
Nervous Prostration, General Debility, Sleeplessness,
Depression and Indigestion. That feeling of bearing
down, causing pain, weight and backache, i9 always
permanently cured by its use. It will at all times, and
under all circumstances, act in harmony with the law
that governs the female system.
It costs only sl. per bottle or six for $5., and is sold by
druggists. Any advice required as to special cases, and
the names of many who have been restored to perfect
health by the use of the Vegetable Compound, can be
obtained by addressing Mrs. P., with stamp for reply,
at her home in Lynn, Mass.
For Kidney Complaint of either sex this compound is
unsurpassed as abundant testimonials show.
“ Mrs. Pinkham’s Liver Pills,” says one writer. " are
the best in the irorld tor the cure of Constipation,
Biliousness and Torpidity of the liver. Her Blood
Purifier works wonders in its special line and bids fair
to equal the Compound in its popularity.
All must respect her as an Angel of Mercy whose sole
ambition is to do good to others.
