The old aJ.ifre. 'u'.t is cheap," is not true, iiS is veritied by the proceedings of the Senate on the silver repeal bill. The daily cvneumption cf time by ta'.k, talk, talk, is costing the country many thous ands of dollars.

How to raise the money to make good the deficiencies left by the last Demo cratic Congress and to defray the expens es of the government U what is bother irg the Administration. Just wait nntil this Democratic Congress has " smashed the robber tari2 " and you will e-. the Ieaiocracy in a tight place. There most lie money to ran the machine, but where is it to oorne from. If Republican speakers in last year's campaign bad warned the people that within six months after the seond inan piration of I'resident Cleveland business would le derangtd, and a half million laborers would be locked out from the hhoi , there w ou id have been a chorus of derisive howis from Iemocratic throat. And yet a niucli worse condi tion is the visible result of that political revolution. When they contemplate the 6i!er.t mills, closed shops and idle mines of ).e country, and know that many thousands of laborers are oat of work, while other thousands are working at reduced wages, the workingmen w ho voted last Kovem ir for "Cleveland and a change" mart f-el just alittie unhappy w hen they think of "what mifcht have been" had they not listened to the Voi'? of the Democratic demagogue. A year since the Xew York WtMJ, that valiant organ of the Democracy, was orbing workinzmen to "vote in gtxxl tiiiies" and ' send the tariff robbers the rear." Now it advises the id.e work ing multitude to "Mat rice; it is good w holesome food and is cheap." At the same tiae it is calling for "bread to keep the workinguien from starving." It will not he sixty days before this Democratic organ will le again shouting in favor of f.-ee trade and deuoancing Protection as unconstitutional. l'.tHi;K Lieutenant Wilson begins to smash the robber tari ff be should imitate the example of the Chinese. A China man buys a colli n liefore his death and keeps it in his bouse as a most valuable article of furniture. The most cherished present a son can mak to bis father is a hindsome coffin. So Wilson should move for an appropriation for a suitable Iemocratic ecllin, and have it ready. The people w ill bury the, corpse, head down. Ohio will begin to dig the grave liefore the ground freezes. l.iU-r Or, Ilv the death of Hamilton Fish, of New- York, the country loses one of its oldest and most honored statesmen. Mr. Fish was an historic tigure- iu the couutry's rll of faithful and eminent men and oc cupied many important public positions daring bis long and useful life. He w as elected Governor of New York and af terwards a Vnited States Senator from that State, previous to the war, and after years of retirement to private life was called by General Grant inU his Cab:;.et as Secretary of State, wbicb poeuion be tilled with great honor to himself person ally, and to the advantage of the country. Casti.v; about for subjects of taxation where ith to make good the deficiency in the government revenues which will be caused by the repeal of the present tariff, the I Vmocratic organs insist that "n important article should escape tax ation," which of coarse means ti.at tea, coffee and sugar must 1 taxed. Evi dently it is contemplated that if work ingmen are to " eat rice" because it is cheap, tea, coffee and sugar are superflui ties. It may go pretty hard for working men who for thirty yearn Lave been re ceiving g.tod wages under Republican laws and been able to provide their faro ikes among other things w ith table luxu ries, but "rii is cheap" and they must live on that if they want to enjoy the blessings of free trade and a Demxratic govern ment. A FtHLADEifniA workinman male a brief declaration, the other day, that pats ithin the compass of a nuUhell the argument against the proposed tariff smaabins of the present Congress. Said be : "The simple truth is that our fami " lies are fcangry and we want bread. We "don't pretend to understand the fine "svstem cf free trade, bat we do know "that we can and did earn a living on " der a protective tariff, and now many of "nsareeaming nothing." This is not logic, but it is the voice of experience. At the annual t.rand Ann encamp ment held at Indianapolis last week Captain J. G. B. Adams, of Massachus etts, was unanimously elected Commander-in-chief to succeed Commander We'is sert, of Wisconsin. The new Commander-in-chief was born in 1341, and in 151 enlisted in Major Den IVrley Toore's ritle battalion, which was the nucleus of the Nineteenth Massachusetts regiment He was promoted to captain for his valor. He participated in every battle of the ar my of the IVtornac in which his regi ment was engad. At Fredericksburg he saved the colors from capture after eight color bearers had been killed. He was captured in and held prisoner for cine months. He has held several of fices of trust since the close of the war and is now sergeant at anns of the Com monwealth. He has always been active in the work of the Grand Army of the Re public and has been at the lat twelve National encampments as a delegate. It is very evident that the silver men in the Senate are determined to taik the repeal bill to death, or by persistent de lay force a compromise. By "courtesy of the Senate," any blatherskite or senile old duffer w ho has managed to secure a seat in that body can ol "Struct business as long as his wind will hold out. Stewart, of Nevada, occupied all of three legisla tive days during last week, and when forced to stop from sheer exhaustion gave notice that he would submit further re marks at a subsequent time. The present outlook is that the cea-less flow of bab ble, babble on this subject will outlast the month. It is claimed and not denied that there is a majority in the Senate for repeal, but a vote cannot be reached be cause by "courtesy of the Senate" every "win.l-bas" mt be permitted toexhacst itself before "discission" doses. This, by "courtesy of the Senate," and by it alone, is called legislation. Formerly the cry was "look to the Senate" when any important measare was before the coun try, bat of late the Senate has fallen into disrepute through its own folly, and but few are cow found to do it reverence. Whek the Democrats compose their differences and ceae rcauling each oth er, we may look for some legislation, beneficial or otherw ise, to the country, ! and nat before. With every branca cf ihe government undertheir control, like '' children in the market place, they won't ! play because each one cannot have bis own way. The aati-C'eveknd faction is icr.cu nnre inwni upon pu.nr.g viroer "in a In ,ie" than it is trying to rolieve the distress of the country. Self-willed and mulish a he i. known to be, they are apparently determined to force him to yield to their demands or let the coun try go to wrack and ruin. On the other hand, the President apparently assumes tnat he is the government, and not con tent with dispensing the patronage and approving or disapproving such legisla tion as ruty be accomplished, he assumes to dictate that legislation, and bis wishes and deeirts, bis views and bis opinions are communicated to bis follower and are received as commands. It is a strug gle between "one man power"' and the cranks and kickers and party wreckers gathered into his support at the last elec tion from the political slums of the coun try. And so, bile these' factions war, the people suffer. Was it not for the shame cf the thing, and for the dire dis tress and coining want that is rap idly approaching, Republicans might look on with complacency at the warring factions, and laugh over the fact that op on bis rdvent into supposed untrammel- ed nower. the President finds himself actually powerless to control bis own par ty. But it is a sad and mortifying s;ec tacle to ( ontemplate; sad for the lovers of popular government, sad for the coun try, ami sadder still for the toilers who want for employment and bread, w hile the warring Lemocratic factions contend for mastery. Ceneral "Bob" McCoy Suicides. Ttro.nk, Pa., Sept. 11. (ieneral Robert A. McCoy, cashier ot the Itlair County Itjr.k, committed suicide here this morning iy shooting hinioelf ia the rght temple.

Just as the balloon started sky ward one of Say res' feet became entangled in the ropes between the balloon and the parachute. In an instant he was jerktd from the ground.

The drug worked a marvelous enre inerery eise. However, last week one of the wooian died and nine taei the other two. All had luieo the medicine freely and it is said that it killed them. Hoke's Back Down. Ohio State Journal : If Hoke Smith will keep his eara to the ground he will hear something to his advantage from Indian apolis this week. Wheeling I.UeUiijencer : Meantime the friends of the veterans and of fa r play will rejoice that the light has broken ia on the administration. It was time. Springfield till.) JuanMi: There will be a good deal of enthusiasm at the Grand Army encampment at Indianapolis, but it is per fectly safe to assume that not a single cheer will be beard for Hoke Smith. Esv City Ti&wie : Secretary Smith Las evidently discovered that the people are not disposed to tolerate wrongs against Uiose who defended and preserved the government when it was in imminent and deadly peril. Pittsburgh Xtirpilrk : Secretary Hoke Smith has doubtless discovered that pension reform niu.Nt be con J acted along coaserva live line. Wholesale onslaughts upon the veterans is sure to.rai.ie a storm in the north ern states at least. Bxkford i, Ills.) EepvLliaut: The feeling the present administration entertains for the defender of tne flag, lioever, has been dis played and it should be watcned from this time ou to prevent it from.l-rpetraling other acta of injustice to ihe veteraua. Pittsburgh Chniui.u-Tclfffrah : Hoke Smith was the only member of the cabinet absent from Friday's meeting. He was in retirement sad mourning over the way in which the country fails to appreciate Lis energetic efforts in veteran suspending. Cleveland L'ader ; Hoke Smith has dis covered that ibere is a democratic party at the north as well as in the south, and that northern members of the party ate friendly to the old eoldiers. That is one reason why his infamous pension order was modified. Worcester (Mass.,) Spy : In making this modification the secretary of the interior Virtually confesses that hisorginal order was wrong. Now the question arises whether he will repair the wrong he has done to sev eral thousand worthy jtensioners by restor ing their names to the rolls. Springfield tMass.,) (.'.- It makes no ditli-renoe whether o& not Commissioner Lodircn was a braver soldier than those who criticise his action. The fact that he has taken back water in his pension purging business, is pretty fair evidence that those who have criticised bis action were right. Burlington Iliu-ktyt : An anti-Hoke Smith gathering occurs at Indianapolis this iretk. The twenty-seventh National en campment will be held tieptember a, G, and 7. It is expected to be one of tne largest gatherings of old soldiers si.-.ce the war. There is no evidence that Mr. Cleveland or his secretary of the interior will be there. Boston Journal : The change appears to have been made just at this time with a view to anticipating the denunciations of the Grand Army at its national encampment, end the Indianajtolis corresjondvnt of the New York 7i.a expresses the hot that Ihe Grand Army pension report will be re written when this new order is read. Albany Journal: By issuing this order Smith and Lochren confess that they have been wrong. But they do not propose to re instate the veterans who have been suspend ed already, and it remains to be seen wheth er they will fulfill their promise or whether their iuod:il:-tion of the first ruling is only made for the purpose of disarming criticism and allaying public ind:gnation. Wichita (Kan..) Bijk: So Hoke Smith gets down from his high horse and hauls in bis horns. He swallows his own ollicial orders and backs down. Fnion soldiers after all, can't be robbed by the gentleman from Georgia. He msy rotten egg Mrs. Lrase or any other unprotected woman with impunity, but when he attempts to override and outrage the patriotic sentiment of the American people he essays too big a job. Pes Moines (Iowa) St ite F.cftstrr : Con scripts and copterheads are great cowards, and they are about as badly scared now as they were when drafts were being made during the war, but they are vindictive and will be certain to stab disable ! veterans in the back every time they have an opportu nity. They have run up the white flag, and they will keep it up until the elections ate over, but tbe pension suspensions will pro ceed at a steadily increasing ratio. All tbe veterans should keep their eyes on the pen sion bureau, aad hereafter soiidly vote as they shot during the war of the rebellion against the same prinsiples and the same men they shot at in lil to 1 j'jo.

Rumor liret placed the amount attTO.OOO, but Agent Elliott denied that so much bad been taken. He would give do figures, but simply said : "Everything in the safe is gone." From tbe manner in which tbe robbery was effected it is certain that the guilty parties wens thoroughly familiar with every thing in and about the office, as well as the habits of those in charge. Three men were arretted tbis morning on suspicion of being iaiplicati! ia tbs robbery. Liter informa tion says tbe amount taken is npwarj if ITO.OUO. .
