A Common Evil, ?The managing fdltor and the political reportfr of the Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette have been convicted of criminal libel for publishing: an article last summer charging that Hons. C. L. Magec and , .William Fllnn had made a corrupt barfain with Mr. Hannu, by which they ( were to receive n cash consideration for ?4?Aif ?iinnnff rtf XlcWInbi- Y?i?fnr<? thi? St. Louts convention. The trial of the case . developed that there was not a shadow of , truth In the charge and the defense was , that the Commercial Gazette people had . published the story on what they had considered good authority, the word of the son of Senator Quay. The result of this trial serves to call attention to an evil whioo too often prevails In the journalistic fleld during political campaigns. Charges are freely , made, by a certain class of papers, about the use of corrupt means by political | managers, which have no better founda- 1 toin than had this story for which our Pittsburgh con:emjH)rary must suffer ejther the payment of a heavy flne or the Imprisonment of iu editor and political reporter. They are mad-? for effect, usually, and are stuck to thr.?ughout with as much tenacity as if they were capable of priMif. in nine cases out of ten they could not b* sustained before a court of Justice. Bat political managers are 30 ' used to such abuse from their opponents that they seldom appeal to the courts for protection. The fault does nut lie In the,fact that the newspapers Indulging in this sort of reckless campaigning desire to in- 1 Jure the reputations of political leaders, tout in the fact that they grant themselves too much licence in commenting on the actions and motlyes of men. "In the heat of debate." as It w?re. they for_ set the conservatism and fairness which characterises the American press in the discussion of all other matter* and go to the very extremes of malevolence and vituperation in handling the political j managers of this or that party. Charges affecting their honor and integrity are freely mad*; reports affecting their characters are grasped a: iui'l published without Investigation as to their truth or j falsity, and men who have behind them ( long and honorable business careers ure ^ often unjustly held up before the public aa corruptlonlsts In politico, merely because they Iiave been so fortunate, or un- | fortunate, us to have l?een ch?ieen the ( campaign manajrers of their party. This ?ort of Journalism Is calculated to drive out of politics men of character ami ability. for they will naturally shrink from 1 the fate that awaits them at the hands , of those mendaci'?uj enough to go to such i extremes. In the case at Pittsburgh. It Is probable | that a paper so conservative, reliable , npd respectable as the Commerclal-Oa- , zette has always been was imposed upon , and misled into publishing the objection- , able matter. There was no evidence that | the editor kn**w of the untruthfulness of , the story. The mistake seems to have been in the failure to make a thorough Investigation of the chsrse against Messrs. Magre and FHnn before publishing 11. and thU is a mistake that is too 1 often made. A lilt of Wlwtnm. The Pltlsbunih Commercial Gazette , calls attention to the fact that those having so much to say regarding the lavish display of-wealth In connection with the , Bradley-Martin fancy ball are refraining from regretting the big sums of money that will be wasted on the coming Fitzslmmons-Corbeft prize light, and says pointedly: "It will be noted that the Bradley Martins have taken the precaution to have special protection for their property In ease It should be attacked by element* whose base passions have been Inflamed by the sensationalism for which the proposed ball has furnished the pretext: and It will be remembered that those most likely to indulge in ?uch an assault ore ! those who Wave nothing to say of prize fighting extravagance, but <>n the con- 1 ! trary find means to contribute to It. Neither the upper nor the lower cru*t haa any monopoly In (bo possession of the L principle of extravagance.** There li a Rood deal of wisdom In this comment.

All fuurrcMnry Mt??tirr. The bill Introduced Into the house at Washington, by Congressman Dalxell, of Pittsburgh, prescribing a thousand foot span fVir^ill bridges across the Ohio river Id not In the interest of commerce generally but rather of the special coal Interest of his own community. The present minimum limit of 600 feet may be too narrow f.?r coal fleets widely spread out; but the fact that so few accidents huppen to such fleets shows that u very much wider span Is not an actual necessity. The ordinary commerce of the river finds no dltllculty in navigating betnreen tilers In a 600 foot channel. This fact was, of course. well understood ut Che war department when said minimum was prescribed, and It la Incredible that the army engineers in charge of navigation would ever for a moment have recommended that minimum If a thousand foot span was a necessity, or even any approximate of a thousand feet. Mr. Dalzell, therefore, 1* simply undertaking to stop bridge building across the Ohio when he now? us this late day, Introduces his arbitrary bill. It entirely ignores what la due to the people?the large and increasing population?who live on either side of the river and who In winter and In low water have suffered all the deprivations and losses of nonIntercourse. They have rijcht* and interests. much larger In the aggregate, than the mere coal Interest of Pittsburgh. ' They can not afford to build such costly structures as Mr. DalzeU's bill would require. The difference In the cost of a bridge resting on 500 foot spans and one arched and trussed over a inousand foot span is dimply tremendous, and as respects the towns and small ctles of the Ohio valley would be prohibitory. and inlpht as well be called a bill to restrict commerce and enterprise between the two banks of the river. These are th? days of latitudinal rather than longitudinal commerce. Trade Is now across rather than up and down the rivers. The days when the drat Wheeling bridge was esteemed and actually declared a nuisance are ^onc. This fact does not mean that river navigation Is unimportant. f?r that It I* to be harassed. Not by any mean#. Nor d ? s It. on the other hand, concede that the government made a great mistake when 5or th^> sake of'the gnat and growing demands of Inter-state commerce, and neighborhood trade and Intercourse, a policy was adopted Intended to overcome the natural obstacles of ice and low wat er, and to that end to em out .i m proper facilities for trade and Intercourse during those seasons of th. year. The* bridges across tm* nvn that form the Ohio ar? not few In number nor arc they of u height that invites navigation except by the small craft that ply between Pittsburgh a;ul the various landings of tho Allegheny and Mon-nigah?*la. That great city, like England, demands a policy that will make her "mistress of die high sea? and all rivers that empty therein;" which means* all th<* bridges she needs acros.i the upper rivers and as few as possible across the greater rivers below. T'p In Cleveland the Populists refuse to fuse with the Democrats ami have determined to nominate a candidate for mayor on a straight Populist ticket. In many >ther parts of the country the Populists are giving evidence of spotting away from the Bryan Democrats and are leaving these gentlemen In the predicament that everybody predicted they would be In. if they had an Idea that the unh 'ly alliances made In the late presidential campaign would more than make up f.?r th?? loss of the National Democrats whom they have refused to recognlzc as Democrats, they were mistaken. The Augusta county bill hn* been practically killed in the hoti*^ of delegates, a turnrislngly large majority voting for tin* motion (< *trik<? out the marine clause.

Washington Correspondence Philadelphia Times: Presldorft Cleveland has - shown un unusual courtesy of Presidentelect McKinley. During the past few weeks the retiring executive has forwarded to the man who in to succeed him very state paper and every official docunent concerning the business of this aduinlstration which mlg-ht be of value to (ho next. The treaty with Great Britain was In .Major McKinley'* hands long: before the newspapers g??t it, and a great mass of stuff about Cuba which never reached the public ban been forwarded to Mr. McKlnloy with Mr. Cleveland's compliments. In fact, the two have been in correspondence ever since election day. and It Is proper to say that they are better friends now than any other two men ever have been under rtmilar circumstances. Air. Cleveland has had a great deal of experience. both as a retiring and as an incoming President, and he has been In a piwltlon lately to give the major a great many points. That he has not fulled to take advantage of his opportunity if evidenced by the fact that the Presidentelect Is right now in possession of more state aocrets than ever Secretary OIney will transmit to hid successor when the day of the great change comes. The meeting between Mr. Cleveland an<l Major McKinley on the 4th of March will be one of mure than ordinary significance. became the developments of the past few weeks have brought them closer together than the ordinary course <>r events would in as many years. Public men have Just learned of Mr. Cleveland's action, and he Is generally applauded for the common sense view he ha* taken of the situation. That he has given Major McKinley a great many valuable tip* Is not disputed, even by his political enemies. The two men may be said to agree on the currency question, and Mr. Cleveland appreciates fully the difficulties which w til confront Major McKinley when lie assumes tiie reins ?*f office.

This odd story Ih told of old Nick Sampson, the keeper of a lumberman's store in northern Wisconsin. He was a bluff, hearty fellow, educated in the "wayn of the woods*" but unable to write his own name. lie kept a book, however, in which was entered a strange set of accounts in which some pictorial skill was displayed. One day . the dork of one of the logging camps, called to s?*t 11?- accounts. The storekeeper pulled down his old book and began: "On November you had four gallons of molasses; on the 6th, ten pounds of coffee and a cheese?" "Hold on." said the clerk, "we've never had any cheese from you or from any other person." "You must have had It." was the positive reply; "it"s down on my book." There was a hot dispute which almost resulted in blows, when the clerk said: "1 g"t a grindstone of you about that time, but no cheese." "That's it. that's It." shouted the old man. slapping his knee, "it wasn't n cheese." Then lm ]>ointed to a rough circle he had drawn to represent a cheese ' I forgot to put the hole In th" middle," he admitted humbly. 7 Iip <*rmfr?l of All <>lfl?.
