Mr. Coen, at the head of the treasury In the absence of the secretary, finds occasion te get himself quite prominently before the country and In a creditable way. lie seems te be a positive man, with settled convictions as te what is the right thing te de and determination in doing it. He appears last as refusing te approve the plans of the architect of the Minneapolis public buildings, who proposed te erect a five hundnil dollar structure out of the $100,000 voted by Congress for the pur ' pose. Mr. Coen could net see that this could be done. The people of Mlnneap oils said that it could be done in the way in which it has heretofore been done in ether places, namely : by an additional appropriation when the first one was ex hausted. Aud '.no doubt they are right in their observation of the method by which the great public buildings of the country have been erected. It is the plan upon which its costly ships have been built, and by which the greater part of the money in the treasury is drawn out of it. The appropriations have been in fact made net by Congress, but by the secretaries. Congress it asked for a modest sum in the first place. The plans and contracts are made en a mere magnificent scale ; and then Congress has te supply the funds te finish the job. The Minneapo lis people asked for $190,000 for a half million dollar building, intending te get the remainder after they had their hooks in and the buTfifting started. Act ing Secretary Coen, who does net seem te be running for president nor te have any friends te buy or pocket te fill at the public expense, tnkes what strikes the Minneapolis people as a very strange aud cruel position in suggesting that Congress when It gave them the $190,000 they demanded, intended te take them nt their word and te require them te complete their buildings with that money. They think it se Incredible that they have appealed te the attorney gen eral te knew whether it can possibly be the law that they cannot rope the y IJnilcd States into a half million ex ' pendilure when Cengiess has raid it should be but $190,000. It Illustrates effectively the distorted view of a very plain matter which is naturally taken by n public that has been used te tha contemplation of the devious methods of the elllclals of the country, adopted te worm money out the treasury into their own pockets and these of their f i lends and patrons, despite the en actments of the people's representatives. Of course no money should be expended en liability incurred beyond the sum authorized and appropriated. It is the simplest duty of the secretary of the treasury te keep the architect's plans down te the appropriations ; and it speaks badly for the department hi the p ist that Mr. Coen's ceuise eheuld be deemed u new departure "Male Old Scandals." The JIarrisburg Telegraph, a narrow minded and superserviceable organ, is ene of the exponents of Stalwart Repub lican sentiment which would be em barrassed in this campaign by its pre vious attacks en Blaine if it were net 'Mtteriy lest alike te any sense of utxnCy or consistency. It indulges in a tirade-mainst what it sees lit te call the revamping " the old scandals against Mr. Ulainevthe Democratic and as slstant Democrat press," and declares that " with their usui Want or common honesty, they rely upon he sreneral for getfulncss of the details of scandals after the lapse or sk or eigh sears, te give these revamped the effect et new charges." New, mark hew plain a tale shall set this impudent pretender down : It hH8 net been two years since this same Harrisburg 'telegraph endorsed us "truthful" the declaration that, with the advent of Mr. Blalne In the depart meat of state, "jeblery seemed te be installed in the vacant throne of slavery ," the Telegraph anneuueed as "truthlul" the opinion thai Mr. Jaine's policy would "lead te foreign Laud Internal corruption and eveutu ally tStaatleiml ruiti" ; aud it endorsed the chncterzitleii of Bltinelsin as subservjencje "personal ambition" and " audncloLjebbery." What has the frgruph te say ? l,lnr then or liar new i Butler's Deem IV uenerai iiutier uiu net nana very large audience In New Yerk en Saturday evening te hear hla widely advertised oration. The evening was inclement, but the werklngmen he champions are net supposed te care for rain. We fear Butler's boom Is net going te be a very big eue. He will get nothing like the vote which ftt. Jehn la going te poll. It leeks a though that would be very respectable. The temperance feeling is growing un deubtediy among us and rapidly. St. Jehn is a very respectable candidate, being a man of ability and marked era tericat power. He makes u geed im presslen upon these who hear him. He has been a Republican of the stilctest sect, and of the original Kansas company of shotgun abolitionists, we believe. He says that Jehn A. Legan once sought his arrest for giving feed te a runaway slave. Evidently St. Jehn will poll a great many votes of Republicans who de net like Blaine, even though they de net care for temperance. His candlaacy will hurt the Republican ticket far mere than tla Democratic ; and we can regard It with complacency. It may be important at this time te call attention te the duty of registration by the voter who desires te exercise the right of suffrage at the presidential election in November. The constitution of the state provides that te entitle te the voting privilege the citizen " shall have resided in the election district where he shall offer te vote, at least two months immediately preceding theelec , Hen." Such resldeuce Is proved by the try of the veterVi namn In the registry book whlcU In Irea i r lrmc ,,, u $hepelIL4'pUcea of Ihetuaeiul wutda. It is net tee much te nsk of thn citizen who believes In the supremacy of re publican institutions te personally assute himself that his name is en the registry book ; nnd if it is net en te see that the assessor, whose duty it is te attend te this work, enters it. These books will be open for the convenience of voters only until Thursday next, September I. ienu te tuts important dutyat'ence, With te-day's lss ue the dallvlNTKt. liebxcer enters upon its twenty first volume, nnd as with the veuth attaining that manly period it deems a refereuce te the event fairly pardonable. The paper was established as a daily when the nation was in tue threes of evil r but its weekly edition flourished under wnsuingten's administration. It has ever labored in the, causa nf lineal Journalism, and Its devotion te the cause or the Democracy has known net the shadow of alteration. That It mettts have been appreciated is Illustrated by its increasing circulation and extensive patronage, both of which are greater new than at any former peiled of the papers history. Ann jeu registered? If net, you have until Thursday te attend te this important auty. Tun Camereulan honchmen de net scern anxious te put thcmselves en record as Blalne enthusiasts. Even Vermont feels the. nauea of uiatne's nomination aud will lessen her old lirae Republican majority. If Butler really desires te be president, he should go te Chill, where brazen effrontery in the ohlef oxceutivo is essential. Feuakeii will speak for Dlaine iu Lin caster.
