Oct 29, ’97- Mr. McKinley. and his adminis— tration have nobody. but them- selves to blame for many persons regarding. their now you see it, now, you don’t see it, manipula- tion of the Union Pacific Hailroad question as a thimble rigging game in which the people have been buncoed. First the sale of the road was to. be postponed and tiien it wasn’t.’ Those who haye Gdrefully studied this matter say that the administration deserves no credit for the rise of $8,000,000 in the bid for the reorganization committee for the property ; that ibtwas a question with the reor- ganization committee of losing all the swag or of giving iup enough of it to hush the public clamor which kd compelled. the announcement: that the govern- ment would ask the court to postpone the sale of the road for six weeks, in order to give intending competivg bidders 9 chance, and that Mr: McKinley was in too great a hurry to with- draw the application for a poat- ponement of the sale. No inter- gat could possibly. have suffered hy the postponement of the sale, and the creditors, other than the government, of ‘the road might Have been greatly benefitted. Members of the administration may throw bouquets at each other ever this business, as they try to ‘wiake the country believe that they accomplished. something which deserves praise, but the ' country has a way of getting at the inside of things, and it will do so in this case. There must be something about the New York. city campaign which provokes men to profanity. Secretary Blissis nct ordirarily a profane man, but he has been using ugly cuss words in public to emphasize his denial of the charge that funds of the Repub- lican National committee, of which he is Treasurer, were being used in behalf of Gen: Tracy, the tatt-McKinley candidate — for greater New. York. Mr. Bliss should read his Shakespeare, and ponder his comments upon the fellow who protested too much. ‘The screws’ have never been turned vpon Ohie Republicans employed in the government departmen s barder than during tke present week.

This séeme.an astounding state- ment to make, batjt ig.the Mc-|\ Kinley: tollowers. who are making it in Washington. Spain’s reply to the McKinley policy, which reached Washington this week, s2ems to have broken the main apring of the policy, it there really ever wasa defivite policy, which many doubt. It is sermi-officially stated that. the. communication from Spain will, as a result of an understanding be between the two governments, be kept from both the Spanish and the Amer- ican people until after it has been submitted to Congress by Mr. McKinley. Last pring Mr. Mc- Kinley said in effect to Congress: keep your hands on this question ; ; I can handle it without your as- sistance, and in December he will appeal fo Congress for orders as to what he shall do withit. This sort of thing would be humilia- ting to a sensitive man.

Rabbit Chase Interrupted the Funeral. “The most exciting rabbit chase I ever saw was one day several years agoin one of our suburban cemeteries, ’’ remarked a well known undertaker a. few days since. “I was attending the funeral of an old friend, and while the mourners and others were gathered at the grave listening’ to the minister one of the men, who was cross eyed, saw a rab- bit. hopping in the grass several yards away, and, forgetting the so- lemnity of the occasion, yelled out, ‘By jingo, boys, there’s a rabbit!’ And, pushing his way through the mourners, he jumped across the grave, nearly knocked the preacher down and rushed after the rabbit. The next thing I knew more than half the men had forgotten the dead and joined in the chase: The rabbit ranina circle, and as it returned toward the grave most of the wom- en climbed on top of the tombstones and railings. After nearly half an hour’s excitement the rabbit disap- peared 1 in a stone pile, and the burial services wére conoiuded: ”—Cincin- nati Enquirer.
