SH'KEJIE COURT JUSTICES.
St. Louis Republic.
Washington, D. C, Aug. 14.
Mr. Cleveland may equal the
most fortunate of the Presidents,
while surpassing all but a few of
them, iu the number of appoint
ments to the Supreme Bench.
No executive since "Washington
has had an opportunity to make
more than live appointments to
this high post of duty and dig
nity. -
Washington, who had to start
the whole machine, made 11 ap
pointments. Jackson, Lincoln
and Grant are the only others
who ever reached as high as five.
Harrison named four, and o
other President ever got beyond
three. Cleveland has already
made three appointments and
has a vacancy to till, while there
is one on the bench who may re
tire before the end of this admin
istration. Cleveland is one of
the six Presidents who have had
au opportunity to appoint a Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court.
The others were appointed by
"Washington, John Q. Adams,
Jackson, Lincoln and Grant.
Three Presidents, William Henry
Harrison. Zachary Taylor and
Andrew Johnson, never had the
pleasure of naming a Supreme
Court Justice.
During the i:ast seven years
the mortality has been great
among these jurists. Field, Gray
and Harlan are the only ones
left whose terms date back be
yond Cieveland's administration.
Field is the only one of the real
old timers left. He has been on
the bench for 32 years, about two
years short of Marshall, whose
term of service was the longest
iu the history of the court. An
ambition to match Marshall is
said to be one of the motives
which keep Field on the bench
when his feebleness of health
dictates his retirement. It is
said by his colleagues that his
age is never made an excuse tor
siiirking work, and that he does
fully his share with the rest.
Iu the history of . the. court
there has been but one instance
of a vacancy being tilled by a re
cess appointment an appoint
ment during the recess of Con
gress, when the Senate could
not have an opportunity to act on
it. This was the case of the
second Chief Justice, appointed
to succeed Jay. John Kutledge
of South Carolina, was appointed
and took his seat as Chief Justice
during the recess of Congress.
At the time he was an Associate
Justice. There were no import
ant cases decided during this
time, however, and when Con
gress met his nomination was re
jected, jl his rejectment was not
a resentment of the manner of
the appointment, but was due to
the failure of the appointee's
mind meanwhile. The incident
made it apparent how unsafe it
must be for anyone to assume the
duties of so important an office
with his title still in doubt,
Though this was the act of Wash
ington, the example has never
been followed, and it is doubtful
whether Mr. Cleveland or any
other President will venture to
put a man upon the Supreme
bench before he has been con
firmed by the Senate.
An Indiana Democrat who
claims to have voted three times
for Mr. Cleveland for President
of the United States, writes to a
local paper suggesting the name
of Ben jamin Harrison of Indiana,
for the vacancy caused by the
death of Justice Jackson. He
calls attention to ex-President
Harrison's fitness for the office.
"While Presidentof the United
States." savs the writer, "he
was broad enough and grea
enough to ignore political con
siderations and appoint Justice
Jackson, who was an ex-Confed
erate and a Democrat, to a place
upon the Supreme bench. The
auestion then presents itself:
Shall tba Democratic party,
through its most distinguished
leader, the President of the
United States, be able to brush
aside party considerations and
appoint this eminently qualified
patriot and statesman to the va
cancv?" It is not likely,' however
that Mr. Cleveland will accept
the sT3T?estion of the Indiana
Democrat.
POLITICIANS IN RALEIGH.
-o-
DEMOCRATS, POPULISTS,
REPUBLICANS.
AND
The l'ops Overliopeful: They Want to
Name the Governor. Minister Han
som in the City,
Raleigh, N. C, Aug. 15. It
seems to be a coincidence that
every time Minister Ransom ar
rives in tbe city Senator Butler
turns up also. The last time
Minister Ransom was in the city,
about two months ago, Senator
Butler placed his name imme
diately under that of the Gen
eral's on the Yarboro House reg
ister. The Yarboro House lobby last
night was a scene of unusual ac
tivity and display for this period
of an "off year." Politicians,
prominent personages and states
men made to order were as
plentiful as red bugs in season.
It reminded one of the eve of a
uight oefore a political conven
lion, or on occasion of a session
of the Legislature. Among
those present was Minister Ran
som, General Cox, Attorney
General Osborne Judge McRae.
Senator Butler, Commissioner
Patterson, Otho Wilson, Treas
urer Worth, Walter Henry, J. J.
Mott, Congressman Stroud, Ed
itor Ayer, Loge Harriss, Collec
tor Simmons, Congressman Shu-
ford and Cy Thompson.
The tact of the presence of
General Ransom and Walter
Henry in the lobby at the same
time brought forth smiles and
reference to Henry's letter of
recent date in which he paid his
"compliments" to General Ran
som. Mr. Henry's Democracy has
been beiore the public tor in
spection for the last few weeks
and almost found wantiug be
cause of the company he kept.
His associates last night will not
tend to raise the public's suspic
ion. Loge Harris had him cor
nered and Otho Wilson kept him
busy a good part of the evening.
It is almost certain that Mr.
Henry has "wheeled over" to the
Pops.
General Random looks like a
new man since he was here last.
He has improved greatly. He
leaves for Blowing Rock this af
ternoon, and in two more weeks
will return to his post of duty in
Mexico.
The Republicans grouped
themselves to one side last night
and discussed the situation in
general. Populists and Demo
crats were also ensrasred. The
Populists are overwhelmed.
They want to name the Gov
ernor, so a well known Populist
says.
I asked a party of gentlemen
the question, "where are we at.
with Josephus Daniels, Jar vis,
Carr, and other leading Demo
crats advocating silver; Senator
ritchard, a leading Republican
and Butler and all the Populists
doing the same thing. The
question brought forth a laugh,
and it was suggested by a Popu
list that the platforms would
classify us all.
Sibley arrived m the city this
morning. He was tauen in cnarge

SENTESCED FOR LIFE.
O
Three of the Murderers of Sinking rlead
Guilty ol Murder and are Sentenced
to the Penitentiary for Life.
Jackson, Miss., Aug. 15. The
following has been received by
telephone from Brandon:
By agreement of counsel, Mar
shall, Fox and Coleman came into
court this morning, pleaded guil
ty to the charge of murdering
Dinkins and were sentenced to
the penitentiary for life. The
case was submitted to an agreed
jury, which returned the verdict
as above stated.
When asked by the court if
they had anything to say why
sentence should not be pro
nounced upon them, Marshall
arose and stated that he desired
to make a statement. He then
said they did not come to Bran
don to kill Dinkins. but to re
ceive a retraction, and that the
killing was caused by Dickins'
action. At the time Marshall
approached him he made a de
monstration and the shooting
commenced.
Fox and Coleman had nothing
to say. The prisoners then stood
up and were sentenced to peni
tentiary for life by Judge May
ers. The scene was most pa
thetic and great emotion was
shown by the friends of the
prisoners. They were at once
taken back to jail.
The verdict is regarded as a
triumph of law over violence,

HON. MATT. W. RANSOM
NO LONGER OUR MINISTER TU
MEXICO.
The Attorney Generat Declares His Ap
pointment in Violation of the
Constitution.
Washington, Aug. 16. Hon.
Matt W. Ransom, of North Car
olina, is no longer Minister from
the United States to Mexico.
The office was practically de
clared vacant to-day by a decis
ion rendered by Mr. Holmes
Conrad, Solicitor General of the
United States, and acting Attor
ney General. Mr. Ransom's in
cumbency was declared to be
contrary to the Federal Consti
tution, and the acting Attorney
General sustained the action of
Mr. Thomas Holcom, Auditor of
the Treasury for the State De
partment, in declining to pass
favorably upon Mr. Ransom's
vouchers for salary and ex
penses.
The decision of the acting At
torney General was based on a
question raised by Auditor Hol
comb as to the legality of Mr,
Ransom's appointment to the
Mexican mission in view of the
existence of Section 2, Article 6,
of the Constitution, which de-
time the kill- elates that "No Senator or Rep
ing of Dickins as one of the foul
est murders in the State's history.
This sentence of lire imprison
ment was asrreed to. Dinkins'
family accepted the proposition
on humane grounds. There is
no hope or chance for a pardon.

Unsuccessful Attempt at .Suicide.
Capt. Alex Wiggs, an ex-po
liceman, made an unsuccessful
attempt yesterday to commit su
icide by shooting himseu with a
pistol, at the residence of Mr.
Robert Moore, with whom he
was boarding, on North Fourth
street, near Nixon. Capt. Wiggs
was alone in his bedroom. He
placed the weapon to his right
temple and. fired it, but the pistol
ball glanced, making a painful
but not dangerous scalp wound,
two or three inches in length.
Dr. F. D. Bell was summoned by
Mr. Moore to attend the wounded
man, and sewed up the cut on
the head.
It is thought that Capt. Wiggs
is insane. He is sixty years of
age, unmarried, and recently has
been morose and melancholy.
He was closely watched last
nisrht, and it was decided that if
his mind was not in a better con
dition to-day an official examina
tion should be made as to his
sanity. Wilmington Messenger.

Don't forget Mr. R. E. Pip
kin's excursion to Richmond, on
A Dollar.
Aphilosopher who runs the edi
torial end of a newspaper that
ought to pay him a salary of $1,-
000.000 a vear sums up the need
of the hour in this wise:
What we need is a dollar easy
to get and hard to let go; a dollar his salary of
that will pay four dollars worth
of debts and then come by means
of a string attachment; a "dollar
that snuggles easy in the sock of
John Smith, but whithers like
manna of old in the safe of a rail
road president; a dollar that will
resentative. shall, during the
time for which he was elected,
be appointed to any civil office
under the authority of the Unit
ed States which shall have been
created, or the emoluments
whereof shall have been increas
ed during such time."
This prov lsion apparently fit
ted the case of Mr. Ransom, for
he was nominated by Mr. Cleve land
and confirmed by the Sen
ate before his term of office as
Senator from North Carolina had
expired, and during that term
the salary or the .Mexican mis
sion had been increased $o,uuu a
year.
Mr. Ransom was elected to the
Senate in 1831 and served con tin
ucuslv from April 24th of that
year until February 23, 1895,
when his nomination to the Mex
ican mission was sent to the Sen
ate and immediately confirmed
by that body, and until March 4,
when his term expired and his
commission as Minister to Mex
ico was signed by the President.
He was a member of the Senate
when the Diplomatic and Con
sular Appropriation bill was
passed which contained a provis
ion raising the post of Minister
to Mexico from a mission of the
second class to a mission of the
first class, and increasing the
salary of the office from $12,000
$17,000 a year. It is due to Mr
Ransom's occupancy of a seat in
the Senate chamber at that time
that he is to-day without an of
fice, and that he is technically a
debtor to the Government for the
amount of salary he has drawn
since assuming his diplomatic
post. Whether or not he voted
in favor of the increase is of no
consequence; the fact that he was
a member of the Senate when it
passed the Diplomatic and Con
sular bill, as stated, operated
against him in holding in a legal
manner any federal civil office
"which shall have been created,
or the emoluments whereof shall
have been increased" during the
time for which he was elected
Senator.
Soon after Mr. Ransom's ap
pointment to the Mexican mis
sion there was considerable dis
cussion in the newspapers and
among public men as to whether
his incumbency of the office was
legal. The matter was consid
ered informally by the President
and members of the Cabinet, but
as no formal question on the sub
ject was raised by any officer of
the Government, the status of
Mr. Ransom's position was not
impaired.
So far as can be ascertained,
Mr. Ransom continued to draw
$17,500 a year, but
he was in Mexico and he was ad
vised by his physician to return
to the United States for treat
ment and recuperation. Follow
ing his counsel, he came toNorth
Carolina in May and has been ac
a health resort in that State and
at his home in Wei don most of
the time since. He is now at
Weldon. While in Washington
last week the Minister paid sev
eral visits to tbe State Depart
ment with reference to the ques
tion raised by Auditor Holcomb.
Just bafore returning to North
Carolina he said his health had
improved sufficiently to permit
him to go back to the Citv of
Mexico in about a month.
The constitutional provision
through which Mr. Ransom has
been deprived of office does not
bar him from being reappointed
to the Mexican mission. He
could have been appointed with
out violation of law or Constitu
tion at any time after the hour of
noon on March 4th last, when his
Senatorial term expired. It is
believed that PresidentCleveland
will, upon being notified of the
condition of affairs, reappoint
Mr. Ransom to the office which
nearly every Senator united in
.king the President to do last
winter.
Hints on Tobacco Curing.
Major Ragland in his treatise
on tobacco curing, says: For
all practical purposes, when
ever the curer has mastered a
knowledge of the effects of too
much or too little heat, as ev
idenced in the color of tobacco,
clearly described heietofore, he
possesses a key to solve the
problem in the science of curing
tobacco. By close observation this
lesson may soon be learned and
then success is easy. There is an
occasional barn of tobacco that
defies all the known modes and
appliances to yellow or cure
bright.
After curing, as soon as the
tobacco is sufficiently soft to
move, you may run it up in the
roof of the barn and crowd it
close, or if the-barn is needed for
other curings, the tobacco may
be carried to the storage barn or
bulked down in any dry house on
the premises. But be sure that
nothing is bulked with green
stalks or swelled stems, for if such
are placed down in bulk it will
be sure to heat and utterly ruin.

it was only recently that Auditor
Holcomb, when he came to pass

pronounced upon Adarrf, reverse
the order of nature and trans-
ble from which he had been suf
fering for many years, Mr
Republicans can be candid on
occasions. They are preparing to
maker the tariff question the "ov
ershadowing issue" of the next
presidential campaign, but thay
are not altogether satisfied with
the outlook and would doubtless
select another "issue" if there
were another in sight, or if their
political exigencies did not com
pel their submission to the dic
tation of their tariff barons.
What the Republicans want
and what they need badly in their
politics, is a genuine calamity.
The country is too prosperous
The growing crops are too
mising. There are too many
advances in wages. Too many
mills and factories idle under the
McKinley law, are resuming op
eration under the Democratic
tariff. They do not regard the
prospect with serenity or com
fort, and occssionally their feel
ings overcome their prudence
and they talk as they feel.
The recent meetinsr of the
New York Republican State Cen-
ral Committee was one of these
occasions. The New York Tri
bune. a iournal consecrated to
the work of promoting a new
tariff campaign and making the
tariff an "overshadowing issue'
in politics, interviewed all, or
nearly all, of the members of the
Committee as to the outlook and
the ways and means of advancing
Republican prospects. There
was an undertone of sadness in
nearly all the contributions made
by the committeemen to our sum
of current political comment and
information. Two of these wil
serve as specimens of all.
Mr. John Sabine Smith had
been to the Northwest, and found
there a boom which led him to
doubt whether the Republican
party could carry the next elec
tions as easily as it carried those
of 1894. Mt. Smith put it engi
matically at first. "Our success
is sure in next year's campaign,
heaid, "if we can only hold our
present advantages." The Tri
bune reporter was indiscreet
enough to ask him what he meant
by such diplomatic phrasing, and
then Mr. Smith threw diplomacy
to the winds and said : '
the last two
gotten.
The dauger, according to Mr.
Smith, is that of an overflowing
prosperity. Such a danger, as
Mr. Smith puts it, is "one to be
guarded against." But how can
it be guarded against? The only
thing we are able to suggest to
the Republicans is the setting
apart a day of prayer for a heavy
frost throughout the Upper Mis
sissippi Valley. The corn crop
has eluded all the other enemies
usually besetting its course from
the hill to the shock or the bin.
It is coming on like an army
with banners, and what the Re
publicans do they must do
quickly.
What does Mr. Smith mean by
saying that in the floodtide of
an overflowing prosperity "the
issue born of the last two years
may be forgotten"? Clearly
enough, we take it, that an era
of continuing prosperity will
sweep from under the feet of the
Republicans the tariff ground on
which they are preparing to
stand. In other words, the
Democratic tariff law will' be
taken by the people as justified
in results. We more than sus
pect that the head of Mr. Smith
is level on that point, and our
conclusion is that the sooner the
Repvblican party goes into cau
cus for the destruction of the
corn crop the better for that
party's prospects.
Mr. Lexow, also of the Com
mittee, went on record to the ef
fect that increases in wages are
ly temporar y and that, if the y
are not, "then we are
and have been in the wrong all
the time." He thou
ever, that the country
convinced of the existence of a
worm at the heart of the fruit it
is eating and induced to throw
away the fruit to' avoid the
worm. He suggested that the
Republican newspapers institute
an investigation for " the worm,
and exert themselves to show
that all the evidence of a return
injr prosperity is nothing but a
bitter mockery.
It occurs to us that it is im
possible for the Republican pa
rsers to do more in that direc-
tion than they have been doing,
The trouble has been, and will
continue to be. that they cannot
maintain a parity between editor
ial jeremiads and telegraphic
hallelujahs. It is impossible to
make a resumption and a wage
advance bear the appearance to
the average mind of a strikeor a
ockout. The most talented
writer is unequal to such a task
And so it happens that an "over
