We sometimes wonder if, during all
this noise about political indepen
dence the people, iho go on about their
bdairiess, on their farms and in their
workshops, bear in mind that sauce
for the goose is sauce for the gander.
Senator DAVID DAVIS; of lllinois, is
par excellence, the independent'Sena
tor. All the others are supposed to _
wear some sort of a collar, to be ser
vile, cringing, and in mortal fear lest
they may vote their convictions.
When Senator Dam arose the other
day to give his reasons for voting to
continue the Democratic Committees,
he went into the facts of his election.
He was elected, he said, by Demo
cratic votes, and in deference to the
party which elected him she voted
frith the Democrats. • And therefOre
the high-jinks independent press went
into ecstacies and declared the course
of Senator DAVIS to be the very es
sence of independence.F
Now suppose that Senator
LINO had arisen and saidtthat be Was
elected by Republicans, and in defer
ence to the men- who voted for him
he would vote for a Republican or
ganiza:tion of the Senate. Would the
higlejinks irulependent press have
lauded Senator CONKLINU for, his in
dependence? The real and the sup
posed') cases are exactly alike, you
pereeive,-but what is independence .
in DAVID 'DAT& would become nar
row partisanship Roscor. CONK
GIN. We hope we have male this
plain to people of common - honesty
and commonsense. We do not ex
pect to reach the other art of peo
ple. Hotiever, these were-two real
cases, ankboth"Sin the Senate. When
Senator Mauottr. arose and declared
that he was= elected by Virginia Re
publicans, anti that' he would vote
for Republican Committees in the
Senate, the high-jinks independent
press put up a yell of disapproval.
MA/10\E was a traitor, it declared,
and a party to a bargain, and all that
sort of thing. It was grand in DAVID
DAVIS to vote with the Demoernts.
It was infamous in MAII9 . NE to vote
with the Republicans. •
What do the sensible people, the
people who have 'no axes to grind
on pseudo-independent grindstones,
think of such independent journal
ism ? These .are the 'newspapers
which have taken the . contract to ele
vate politics above the partisan plane.
They represent ',what they call re
form. But you notice that this- sort
of reform always sets its stakes at
the maintenance, `
of the lines .1: - 71 - "the
Dimocratie, - . party and the Oblitent :
lion of the lines of the Republican
party. Such is " indepeinlencee,
cording to tie weak-cambric-tea order
of political' humbug.: Its apOstles
regard honesty and honor •as un
known beyond their - Own bosoms.
Nobody is honest who does not
straggle along the borderland where
to have convictions is a crime, and
to believe in the existence of certain
fixed principles is a sort of wild in
famy. BUt , - - tull-grosirn men under
stand that what is good tot. Davis is
good for ManoNE, or any other per-'
son, and that there cannot rightly be
two - sauces—one for the Democratic
goose, and another for the Republi
can- gander. There cannot 'be too
kinds of, independence. ,
THE SVP/Pfleall 1117111.1 PM
Such- peOple as limit their readbig
of current news and rumor to Denia
attic and brent-Demoirttic
papers, may conclude that there is
the loftiest sort of a _war going on
between the President and certain
Republicans who are , denominatid
"stalwarts." The report in such .
papers is that'vither Cow.nio, Lo
tJAN, CAMERON, and others' will run
the - Administration, or failing to do
that, will destroy it This is as much
as to say that were Mr.reormaso
President Gen. GARrir.LD and a few
other Republiestus would either run
the Administration, or destroy it.
There is no sense -in either supposi
dog, and there is no war such as
Deinocratte journals
_would ire glad
to have the public ,believe going on
the stalwart leadersand the
President.
The reason why such papers re
port hostilities between the parties
named is that no Democrat lance
Gen. Jecicsox..who, by the' way was
the first Democratic President—has
ever run hie own_Administration.
Certain Democratic leaders, and gem.
entity the worst of the ')ot, hairoal-
Ways taken posweesion of the Presi
dent as soon as he was inkuiptruted:
Hence, to a Democrat, the idea that
Preildent can . run the Executive
office hinue%'fi - pitetosterous. This
is one of the twice in which Demo-
Crate 'sliced not judge others by

or by tubing iri. public service has

''AN odd-looking car has been run over
the eastern part of the Erie railrbad

with windmills and revolving cups, so
that looked like the roof of a signal

the pressure of the atmosphere ottani;
going at different rates of speed, so as to
determine of what shape to make the

Mn. MAYEA'S alleged savings while
President having been made the subject
of criticism in various quarters, the fol
lowing statement in regard to the matter
has recently been published, by authority.
The *lnnate of the ex:President's sala
ry for the fonr.years was $200,000. The
expenses of Abe position during that time
was $134,000. Had Congress refunded
the $4,000 he paid for• the expenses of the
visiting statesmenio L?uisiana, his sav
ings would haie been $70,000. As it is,
he went out of office with 460,000 to be
carried from his account As President to
the benefit ofihis account as a private cit
izen.' When he became President he was
burdened with debts to the amount of
$llOOO, mostly on account of -bequests
charged upon the Btu:cumin estate. Of
this amount he has paid $60,000 out of
his Presidential selary, so that the net
Available result 'in cash of his. Presiden
tial term is 46,000.
