P. rmlroad bridge does not afford the necessary facilities for the constantly increasing traffic and travel between the two cities and something must be done in this direc- tion during the present year. It was a shrewd dodge of the wo man suffragists to place their petitions on the desk of every senator, instead of combining them all in one. This was done in order that a spontaneous demand of the enfranchisoment of the down trodden sex might seem to come from every section of the country. Senator Ingalls, in presenting one of these documents, said ho was only contributing his part towards the farce, in which he had no heart, Dn. Mary WaLker, who has re- turned to Washington for the season in lifurcated garments of the latest cut, has been interviewod by a reporter and flies to the defense of Guiteau, “I think it would be a burning dis- grace to the country,” she exclaimed vehemently, ‘‘if that man should be bung. He is a monomaniac on that subject and has shown himself to be insane throughout the trial. His banging would disgrace me and all other citizens,” “But you are not a citizen,” put in the impudent repor- ter. ‘O yes, T am,” she said. “I voted at the last school election in New York.” It is lucky that the feir Mary is not citizen enough to set on the Guiteau trial, Tur idea thay delinquent contrac- tors on the siar route seryice could be prosecute d on their bonds, has fallen to the ground since the discovery that most of the bonds are worthless’ Since the revelation of straw bonds as pert of the system of defrauding the postofice department, it is an open question whether there was any hon- esty in dealing with that department at all. The interior and postoffice de- partments appear to have been centers of Jthieving Zoperators to a remarkable extent. The star route business was only one of the rascalities. Straw bonds are, if anything, worse than straw bids, because they break the hold of the government on its con- dractors, ACCOMMODATING GENTLE~ MEN. The fact that some of our most re- ans have endorsed the spectable citi petition for a license to sell liquor for # notorious resort like the Saint Elmo affords a striking illustration of the recklessncss with which many of our business men are signing petitions for everything and everybody, Many of our business men sign petitions cith a reckless disregard of all con sequences, and it is just as easy to procure their names to a petition ask or p don and let loose on the community ing the governol ident to par the m dangerous criminal, as it is to get their endorsement to appli- cations for appointment to positions of trust men whom they have rofused credit for five dollars. Tn fact it has become a common practice with some of our best business men to sign every paper except a promissory note or a pledge for a contribution to some public charity. These accom modating gentlemen do not realize that they often assume a grave responsibil ity as endorsers of p itions They do not realize that public men and especially executive officers often regards these endorsements as personal requests which they do not feel prudent to refuse. They do not comprehend that the signers of a pe- tition to parden desperadoes and murderers out of the penitentiary are fully as responsible for the conse quences of liberating a criminal as the executive who grants their request When business men sign the peti- tions to license notorious disorderly houses or immoral resorts, they be- come indirectly responsible, not only for the bad influsnce exerted by such disreputable resorts, but for the vice aud crime that is fostered in such es tablishments. We know the accom- modating gentlemen are very anxious to please everybody, and many of them cannot muster courage enough to say mno to any request that only requires them to sign their names to a petition, but they have no right to be so accommo- dating when their signatures affect the welfare of the whole community. What would boe thought of the busi- ness man who would vouch for a no- torious dead beat and swindler as a man 1 good standing commercially, and yet reputable business men have vouched for the respectability of Dick Curry and the St. Elmo. The only natural explanation is that they have signed those vouchers thoughtlessly idering the gravity of the act. True, the mayor and hoard have full authority tion for comes from a disorderly resort; but that fact does not exonerate the en- dorsers of such applications. When it is once understood, however, that men who sign such petitions do so with full knowledge that their action will be made public, and when these accommodating gentlemen compre- hend that they are assuming a dan gerous responsibility in signing peti- tions promiscuously, they will exercise greator discretion in their endorse- ments, and without for a moment cor to reject any appli liconse which notoriously THE MARCH CONSPIRACY. Every friond of the late President Garfield will indignantly repudiate any defense of his official actions based on the theory that he was a mere ‘‘puppet’ in the hands of his friends. Such a plea is at once an in- sult to his memory and a slur upon his brave and manly character. The charge that General Garfield was a weak man wus used before and very thoroughly exploded during the late prosidential campaign, It was again taken up by a faction of the republican party after his in- auguration as prosident and contra- dicted to their own satisfaction. Dur- ing the weary three months succeed- ing the assassination, when the pa- tient sufferer lay battling for life, no voice dared raise itself to accuse the dying president of & lack of either physical or moral courage. The poople of the United States wore hardly in a fit humor to listen to such a charge, at that time. 1t is a shame and a dis- grace that to-day, while soldiers are still guarding the flower-covered cof- fin of the dead president, partisan malignity has again raised its hand to stab the friends of the lato administration from behind the shadow of the dead chief, and *'to excuse the errors” of the president on the ground of weakness of character and dependenco upon the opinion of others, The New York Commercial refers to what it terms ““The March conspiracy,” referring to the nomina tion of Judge Robertson, Taking ita cue from Gorham's star route organ, which shamefully abused Gen- oral Garfield during his lifetime, it endeavors to cast odium upon Mr. Blaine as suggesting and en- gineering the change in the New York oustom house which resulted in the resignation of tho New York senators and the assassination of the president. No other answer to the chargo is necessary than the frank and maply lotter of General Garfield, which was printed a fow days ago in these col- umus, in which he declared that the attempt to shift the fight to Mr, Blaine's shoulders was as weak as it was unjust. and asserted that Mr. Blaine's whole influence had been to| [ auest o early” in ity proce build up and unite the whole party irrospoctive of factions.

Our public lands arerapidly passing from out of the hands of the govern- ment. Tho land office reports that the arable lands open for pre-cmption will soon bo exhausted, and the state- ment has caused an investigation, which shows what every western man has knowa for years—that vast quan- titios of lauds hayo been taken up and are held under false pretenses. The desert land grab in California, the evorlasting Spanish land grants in Now Mexico, and the enormous quan- tities of alleged “swamp” and “over- flow” lands in the south which have been grabbed by the land sharks aro instances in point. All these discov- cries seom suddenly to have flashed upon the minds of certain c men, although the press has been call- ing attention to every essential fact in During this time the general Jand office has slumbered onin peaceful but y ngress- the cases for years. sistent ignorance of the scandals affecting 1ts manage- ment, Special agents are now called for to investigate the subject. Be- twoen the land grants to railroads and the land sharks outside of the rail- roads it is a question whether much of the public domain will be left by the time these agents get down to busi- ness. Tue Buffalo Bxpress sums up the whole matter when it says ‘‘No man who w in a position to give conf- dential advice to President Garfield would have dared to make a dishonor- able proporition to him,” Conaress will ke flooded with schemes to appropriate oa behalf of the railroads the most available sec- tions of the Indian territory on the plea of necessary right of way. Sena- tor Edmunds will be on hand to ob- ject. Axorner infernal machine has ex- ploded in an English vessel, placed there, as Mr. O'Dynamite Rossa states, by Irishmen in Liverpool. Every such explosion does more damage to the cause of Ireland than it does to England or her Irish policy. POLITICAL NOTES.
