Under the above heading the Chicago j Tribune devoted a jirt of the third and lourm coiuihiih oi us lourtii page in us tssue of May 8, 1892, to the following: 'C. W. Pavy, the salary -grabbing tate anditor, is not wise in permitting his relatives and hypenated henchmen to rush into print for the purpose of set ting up a technical but untenable de fense against one of the minor and the least imjiortant of the charges preferred against him. Such a course directs fur ther attention to the graver charge that Mr. Pavy had annually grabbed S5.000 of insurance fees in defiance of the law and the cotiotUution. It also tends to bring into notice his secondary grab of 3"25 each year from the state board of equalization. "The technical defense set up by Mr. Pavy is that lit reported the insurance fees collecu-d by him ami that he turned aver a certain sum as fees to the state treasurer. This he admitted. Hut he did not report the fees as required by law, and he held out grahljcd, hooked, fobbed, whateve r he choses to call it $3,1)00 of these fees for his own private use. Mere pet itoing by the salary grabber's oran cannot meet the accusa tion. "Does Mr. Pavy deny that he hooked the $5,000':' Does he deny that he col lected fees as e.-o!lico member of the state board of equalization contrary to the law aud the constitution? Does he deny that he resorted to lobbying, to wire-pulling and to more reprehensible methods to defeat the bill recommended to the general assembly last year by Governor Fifer which was intended to prevent the misiaiangement of the audi tor's office by Mr. Pavy and illegal grabbing by him of fees and other per quisites? "These are the questions that Mr. Pavy will have to answer in order to obtain the hearty supjKirt of the Re publicans of thit state for re-election. "It would be criminal folly on the part of the convention which meets tiiis week at Springfield to nominate Mr. Pavy until he hits refuted the grave charges pre. erred against him. The convention cannot alTord to load down the ticket with the name of a law-defying, constitution-ignoring salary grabber. It can not aflord to nominate a Republican state officer who sought the aid of a Democratic committee chairman to pro tect him in his misappropriation of the public funds and in defeating a neces sary legislative bill recommended by the governor of the state. It would be ri diculous to place the name "of Pavy on the same ticket with that of Joseph "W. Fifer, for the latter can lie quoted from every Democratic platform in condem nation of the methods of the former. 'The Republican convention is not called together to continue salary grab bers in office, but to nominate honest, capable, law-abiding, faithful men for state officers. It is its duty to condemn salary grabbing and repudiate s.ilary grabber. There ought to be no place on the ticket for Mr. Pavy. lie may drag it all down to defeat if he gets on it; for the ticket will be no stronger than its weakest, and if the convention renom inates Pavy it will be in the position of apologizing for and excusing this salary grabber." .. . 1 lunul "staKtiiaiiiK'i.-" The president, il -o uis, favored total prohibition oi' immigration as long as the cholera existed iu Euroean ports. Secretary Foster and some of his other political counselors argued strongly against it, because that would have necessitated an extra session of congress, and an extra session they thought would lessen his chances for a re-election. The peril of the nation in the es timation of these politicians -was not wf bo much importance as the winning of the election. Savannah News. Everything Going for Cleveland.
