Some diflcruntled politician who baa approached a paper with an unclean proposition and repaired a rebuff mounts the roatrum and tears bis hair in denouncing the "venal press. Another man who haa attempted to malign hia neighbor over the signature Tro Bono Publico" and been angered by learning that his contribution went to the office cat, inveighs thenceforward against a "venal" f rees.

If it were to: aale,"even to the extent the lawyer is, it influence would be gone. There is no sum of money thut would induco a newspHjicr to shield a burglar or a ropwt and to misconstrue the !uw in his behalf. The lawyer's training is to make him salable, to give his taloats a value. Unless worth buying ho ia not rauked as a good lawyer. Yet because hero and thero way be fuiind an editor who will accept a "retaining foa" the lawyer is very certain that tho press is "venal," nnd his sorrow about it is very touching indeed. The nowspapers of this country can always be found upon the side of that which they dcorn right They err, of coureo, at times because there is nothing but human agency behind thoai. The is "venal" is unfair c harge that tho preuntruo and filly.

Where are tha eons? Gone west In Nebraska and Kansas tha farmers as a class, are hopelessly in debt A fair crop will permit them to pay interest on their mortgagee and have three rather poor meala daily. But tbey only get a fair crop once in several aeaeoita, It would seem that they had not gained much by leaving tha old place back in Vermont and Massachusetts. The farmers rind that tbey have been abused in various ways. They have been producing wealth for others to handle and hoard. Legislation has beau ahnied not to protect them, but to protect a richer class, and at the farmer's expense. Laws are made in favor of the moneyed power of the East Natioaal statutes are moulded by Wall street magnates. The farmer has been thinking about these things. He ia tired, and perhaps in the scramble after bread, has not had time to think as much as he should. He has accepted what came, as a mutter of course, only bowi:ig a little lower as the burden grow hecvier and heavier. Today the farmer is roused, and little less than desperate. He is casting about for some measure of relief. Who offers it? The same wily politicians who have offered it countless times before. Who is ready to help him? Himself. Hsmust rely hpon himself. This he if endeavoring to do. He is not exactly certain as to method, but he is ready to take a stand for his own rights- - something Dew to him. Because he is doing this he is abused, and tho limited aristocracy that would like to rule this country is disgruntled. But the farmer will survive it till. He will not be beaten nor browbeaten. Those who think to senro him would be wise to take a new tack. "Heroism in Journalism" is to tho title of a magazine article. The author is supposed to be J.

It may develop sufficient magnitude to change the result This all depends upon whether or not the farmers will accept pledges from those who have before given them only to break, aid to be absorbed by organizations that have hitherto ignored them. BLOOD AT LAST. According to telegraph reports there has been more fighting between the troops and the Indians, and the statement that some soldiers were killed lends to the report some color of truth. It is easily spread abroad by correspondents that Indians have been slain, but the correspondents would hardly lie concerning the other side. It is to be feared that the dispatch is correct If yesterday's engagement shall end the turmoil the price of peace has been lcea than was reasonable to hope. The Engiueers riding upon the cowcatcher of a No. 11 boot It was a thrilling episode, that shook journalistic circles, 83 represented by Mr. Hirsh, from stem to stern, and also fractured the pavement.

There would be no chance for hope save that the duke will be able doubtless to marry some rich girl who will liquidate the present bill and become responsible for countless others. A title is sometimes sufficient uot only to protect the wearer against a oharge of vagrancy, but to got him into the 400. An exchange finds fault with another exchange on the ground that it is being run for revenue only. It would be difficult in this wicked woald to specify anything that is not run for revenue oaly.

TH3 SIGNS UNCHANGED. Much has occurred since then, and every cveat bearing upon the subject but confirms the hasity formed opinion. Unless there shall be a very docided chaDge, and one not at present to be foreseen Blaine and Cleveland will once more lead the respective hosta. Men of all parties recognize in Blaine a man of genius. He towers so above his colleagues that some of them appear who do almost pitifully small. The-Fnot like him are still forced to admire him, and that he could command more strength than any other republican, goes without Baying. Cleveland is the prominent figure of tho democracy. His enemies may deny this, and such venomous old people as Dana may deride him, but they cannot shake the fact, Hill ia the principal op ponent, and Hill, to use the current phrase, is "not in it" By the side of Cleveland he is a mental as well as physical pigmy.
