Ok Win Pitt Kellogg a Republican

report that Gov Kellogg thought tho
government case against him failed
becauso ho held that tho offense con
sisted In the receipt of drafts and was
barred by tho statuto of limitations
No denial Ismade that ho was guilty
of conspiracy to rob tho government
but the crime was committed so long
ago that the law will not punish him
Ho will make a model congressman to
work with a Republican administra

What Will They Do With It
A correspondent wants to know how
It Is that Democrats In Texas nre
asked to seud money to Ohio for cam
palgu uses and how It will bo ex
ponded The Gazette cannot clve
nspeclflo answer as to what purposes
it will ho applied to but infers that It
will bo Invested so as best to advance
tho partys Interests In that stato Mr
Arthur P Gorman chairman of the
national Democratic executive com
mittee makes tho request for n gen
eral contribution of money to ho used
In tho very close states andsays Tho
number of our opponents la small but
their wealth is great nnd will be un
scrupulously used An active and
vigorous campaign must be made
against them Their paid advocates
must be met and defeated In debate
upon the platform The organization
of nil who nro opposed to
them must bo perfected In
every state city nnd county In
the land Money is needed to do this
honest work Your committee reus
ing to adopt tho inethodB by wjlch
tho Republican party tills Its roasury
calls upon ull good citizens for tho aid
which it requires
Wo aro not of those who hold
that tho cud Justtllcs tho means
and maintain that tho corrupt use of
money In Inllueuclug elections Is not
Justllled becauso tho opposing party so
uses money There Is no ground Tor
suspicion that money sent to Ohio to
forward tho Democratlo canvas will bo
so used Tho chairman distinctly
points out that such funils aro to bo ap
plied In honest work
If our correspondent has a dol
lar or two which ho wants to con
tribute to tho common cause lu Ohio
ho need not be deterred by any consci
entious scruples as to tho uso whloh it
will be put to It will doubtless be
laid out lu n Judicious mnunor and
whero It will do tho most good
The Drummer System
The Gazette prints elsewhere n re
ply to an article that appeared In tho
Galveston News on the 20th ult Tho
Nows may bo correct in part for Gal
veston may havo employed more
drummers than Us wholesale business
Justified Other places also may huvo
been compelled to shorten sail But tho
stringency of tho times not n defect In
the drummer system Is perhaps the
occasion of economy Every lino of
business Is keoplug olo o to shore those I
hard times nnd It Is not strange I
that drummers na well ns other em
ployes must go till times grow
better But this dos not Jus
tit any expectation thnt
tho system of drummlug will go and
i docs not furnish any argument ngalnst
I tho system That sj stem has its ban
fits too clearly recognised now to bo
ever cast aside Tho drummer U a
necessity to tho mercantile buyer and
open orders would novcr glvo tho sat
isfaction that tho drummor does He
rights all wrongs between seller and
buyer and is a guarantee of competi
tion as it were to the buyer The
merchant in Fort Worth himself pre
fers to buy from drummers and open
orders nro as objectionable ns to tho
man to whom he sells in turn The
Gazette Is not speaking of
drummers but of tho drum
ming system and cannot bellevo
that the push and cnterprlso which has
been Injected Into the American busi
ness world will over let that system
go The retail merohnat would
never permit it for to him the drum
mer is an educator a necessityand a
guarauteo Tho system Is without
doubt tho outgrowth of competition
but that same competition will main
tain it and if to safe to expect that the
drummor Is n fixture lu the commer
cial life of America Thedrammof
will not go nnd If ho did and became
a farmer as tho News suggcBts what
would wo do with his productions such
a year as this
Tho Blaine Scandal
If tho Dcmocratlo party cannot de
feat Mr Blalno on his puollo record if
his letters to My Dear Fisher aro
not sufficient to turn from hiin tho
rightthinking members of his own
party If he is not to bo
beaten on tho ovldonco of his
thrift In ofllce then ho cannot bo
by assaults on his social life Newspa
peis which harp on these things only
detract from the forco of the record
ajralnst him nud evluce their own pru
rient tastes Tho following from the
Chicago Herald is cordially indorsed
by The Gazette
The attacks which Democratic organs aro
making upon Mr Blaines private character
cannot bo defended in nny manner Mr
Elaine Is a married man with a family of
grownup children In private llfo ho has
long had tho admiration nnd cstoom of thou
and of pooplo without reference to their po
litical inclinations Ills homo has been a
happy one nnd his domestic relations so far
as tho public could Judgo have at trays been
lngulailvple Rant No man has taken
greater pleasure In his family nnd peoplo
who hnvoknown him Intholiomocliclebear
testimony without exception to tho conll
dence and contentmont which prevail be
neath his roof
The revival of old scandals of asocial na
ture with which his name has beon connect
ed cannot Injure him In tno estimation or
tho public but they will cause much pain to
those closely rclatod to him whoso feelings
It will do no political patty any good to
wound HIh children are now grown and
his wlfo Is an aged woman Every Insinua
tion cast against him strikes them with
greater forco than It can him nnd will be
sure to icsult In drawing sympathy to them
rather than III will to him It Is a shame
that nner twenty years of publlo lifo a man
whoso domestlo relations havo been wholly
pleasant should bo confronted with Idle
Bcandats circulated during hi youth and
which whether truo or false can hnvo no
possible bearing on his character to day
Mr Elaines political career Is pub
lic property Tho letters ho has writ
ten the speeches he has madcv or tbo
votes bo has given in coagross nro all proper
ly enough subjeots for Inquiry Whatever
his most renlovu defenders moy iave to say
probably no man will bo mere willing to no
accord to his adversaries tho right to oritl
clsothofothlnsstbauhlmsrir Ho has ben
long enough In publlo life to know that the
acts of a public servant aro common proper
tynud thai fair discussion of them Is legiti
mate enough Hut beyond these thine no
man bns n right to go
Ills to be hoped that the scandals I raked
uprromnmuntyand nlmot forgotten past
nirccllog tho honor of one of our foremost
men and of a woman long since dead will bo
permitted to drop by nil newspapers making
nny pretense to decency
A Newspapers Dnty to ItaEcaders
The editor of tho Waco Examiner
has a grievance against tho editor of
the Houston Po3t and entertains his
readers with reciting how ho hns been
abused by the Post and what excef slve
provocation ho has hnd to excito 11
feellng toward that Journal
The Gazette does not meddlo in
other peoples huslness nud 1 not
reudy or disposed to venture nn opinion
as to the merits of tho esse between
tho two gentlemen who control tho
columnsof tho Post and tho Examiner
Without referring particularly to
tho presont Instance but discussing
tho matter from tho point of journal
istic ethics wo consider tho airing of
personal feeling In tho editorial col
umns of tho press n decided lowering
of Journalistic tone and an Invitation
to the publlo to regard editorial expres
sion as merely tbo individual predilec
tion of the editorial manager put in
type That lnipersonnllsni which
should distinguish editorial utter
auce nud which nlone gives influ
ence to tho editorial page cannot ex
ist lu tho midst of personal
recriminations We do not say
that tho editor should exclude from
his columns everything that ho feelB
and that he should bo faultlessly an
selfl9h for that would require a virtue
that is not human But selfdUplay
nud tho seeking of personal ends
should find no place there Still lees
should tho respontiblo manager of a
newspaper intrude his private affairs
Into Its columns and make of
only a vehlelo for tho expression of his
hates nnd his likes So far aB a news
paper Is his property ho has tho
i undisputed Tight to speak as bo choos
es therein but so fur as it is n publlo
Journal luvltlng tho contldonoe of the
public claiming to bo an expositor of
thing as they ooour and asking favor
as a uowspaper ho has no right to in
flict upon his readers tho relation of
matters personal to himself except
Indeed as a matter of news in the
news columns nnd as n distinctly
personal concern Strict Impartiality
should at least bo tho pretense If it li
not the practice lu all editorial com
ment nud dlsciiBslon Least of all per
sona in the world should an editor
wear Ids heart on his sleeve
The Gazette does not contend that
no personal discussion of any kind
should bo allowed Buoh a proposition
would carry with it a denial of the
propriety nudduty of consurlugrogues
or recogulzlug merit Tho distinction
to bo borne In mind Is that in rebuking
rascality and pointing out the rascal
tho editor is using tho power of his of
fice lu the publlo behalf Ho is not
supposed to speak In resentment of tho
wrong practiced upon himself as a citi
zenhut upon the entire commonwealth
of whloh ho was a member mounted
on n watchtower to detect the ap
proach of tho enemy and sound tho
alarm Hamuel J Tlldon ueyercom
plained that ha had beeu defrauded of
his Jut t rights iu the seating of Hayes
ho properly recognized that great
wrong as nn Injury to every citizen of
tho United States nnd so donounced
It Had ho parndod it as an infringe
ment upon his rights as between him
self and Mr Hayes tho country would
have taken little Interest in his com
plaints
