If there is anythingthat should arouse
the just indignation . of the American,
people against the hypocritical cant and
pretense of the present “reform ('1’) admin-_
istration” it is in the. series of wicked and
malignant persecutions, which culminated
on Saturday in the financial ruin of JonN
Roacu. And who is JOHN Boson? He
was a poor and friendless Irish boy, who,
full of pluck and energy and love for his
adopted country, has fought his way up
step by step until he became the, largest
ship builder in all America, and the em-
ployer of the largest number of working-
men of any man on this side of the Atlan-
' tic. He believes in his adopted country,
and in its power to regain its position on
the seas, and finally to become the chief
maratimc power of the world. He believes
in protection to American ships, to Amer-
ican manufactures of every kind, and to
the American laborers. For this he has
been traduced and lied about by the free-
trade papers and partisans till in the
minds of many, who do'not know him,
his name has become the synonymof hall
that is base and fraudulent. Yet every
man who has ever known John Roach
will take his oath that a more honest and
walk God's green earth. Because he had
the largest and bestjacilities he was able
to make the lowest bids for the govern-
ment’s new vessels, , and so was legally.
awarded the contracts. But William E.
Chandler happened to be secretary of the
navy when these bids and awards were
made, and though he had no more power. ,
to legally change the result, than the
Mikado of Japan,~he it was who once
wrested Florida’s electoral vote from the
shot-gun democracy. He it was who
thwarted their practice of registering the
southern vote, not as it would or should
be cast, but as the democrats elect it
shall be cast, and therefore he, Mr. Chand-
ler, must also be villified, slandered and
punished, and all his acts as secretary of
the navy have been subjected to micros-
copic search and scrutiny. Mr. Whitney,
President Cleveland’s secretary of the
navy, in searching Chandler’s record,
could not with all his partisan zeal and
rancour, discover even a missing two
cents, as was the case when the millions
of the treasury were so critically counted
and which two cents were afterwards
found to shame the democratic campaign
lies of republican frauds in the treasury.
So to reach Chandler, Roach must be
sacrificed, innocent though he be of any
other fault than a too patriotic desire to
advance the glory and welfare of hi
country. The indorsement once put upon
the appeal for justice to President Lincoln
by Nathan Seeley, of Betliel, who .wa
threatened with ruin by the act of an arbi-
trary ofiiccr of, the war department, should
be written in letters of burning brightness
above the closed doors of John Roach’s
great workshops : “Surely this government
cannot afford to wantonly ruin an honest
contractor.”
What are the exact facts in the present
secretary of the navy’s conspiracy against
John Roach? Roach agreed to build
naval dispatch boat after plans, not his
own, but the navy department’s. Aboard
of naval experts supervised the work, and
officially declare it to be done fully up i
the requirements of the specifications.
The speed has been repeatedly shown to

government’s contract, thus certified 1
and approved by the naval advisory board
having the work in charge. But John
Roach, in an interview with 8. represent-
ative of the Tribune, states his own case
better than any one else can tell it for
him, as follows":—
“I tell you, my friend, that those boats-—
were condemned before their keels were
laid l They were condemned in congress.
The democracy dared not oppose the plan
of a. new navy, because it had become a
very popular notion. The people in a
mass wanted a navy. But they opposed
the appropriation because, as they claimed
in their congressional speeches, the money

I have now told the Tribune, and
through it, the people, all I can now say.
When the true facts are laid bare in time,
and the public have had an opportunity to
make a candid judgment of them, they
will see that no man has tried harder than
I to be of service to his fellow man as well
as to himself, and no man has been more
cruelly persecuted and lied about.
If the people understood this matter, if
the mendacious free-trade press had not
so extensively deceived them, the failure
of John Roach would be recognized from
ocean to ocean as a national calamity.

Housatonic railroad, secured his services
as clerk and private secretary at the gen-

- There is a general feeling in base ball
' circles that something must bedone if our
nine are to win‘the pennant. They are
good ball players too, and that makes
a difference. What is really wanted is a
pitcher that nobody can hit, and .as that
requisite is easily obtained it is high time
it was done. We suggest that a young
- lady pitcher be engaged. If any batsman
can hit a ball thrown by a woman he, will
do better than we think he cap. Of
course if a young lady pitcher is engaged,
we mean secured, all the players and most
of the spectators will be compelled to wear
masks and :wind chest protectors the
same as the catcher does now, but that
trifling inconvenience can be put up with.
Nobody can tell, of course, how a female
pitcher would pitch, but if she handled
the ball at all the same as she does a stone
when she throws at a hen in the garden, it
might become necessary to have eighteen
players in the clubs instead of nine, so
that she could be surrounded—Bridge-

Bridgeport discovers that it ,has a- popu-
lation Of 47,000. This almost equals, (if
it does not quite), the population Of Hart-
‘ ford. Thus Bridgeport is the third, if not
the second, city in the state, And if it
continues to grow in the next fifteen years
as it has done in the last fifteen, it will
exceed New, Haven in population, and
rank No. 1. Bridgeport has many advan-
tages. It is on the Sound with a good
harbor, it has a great variety of manufac-
turing concerns, and it has immense
wealth. There need be no limit to its
grOwth.—Danbnry News.

To the Public—A Protest. _
In some of the papers it is stated that
the position of superintendent of the
Soldiers’ Home gives general satisfaction.
This is‘false and the truth is exactly the
reverse. The members of the G. A. R.,
who claim to be a portion of the public,
are not only dissatisfied, but feel that in
Mr. Pclham’s appointment every veteran
been, to say the least, severely snubbed.
the following facts: In the face of general
orders issued by Major-General B. F. Blit-
to the lines, Lieutenant Pclham gave an
order for a canteenful to a sergeant. The
men got drunk, committed a murder, and
the issuing of the order being traced to
Pclham, he was on December 29, 1864,
The members of the G. A. R. feel sure
that had these facts been known to the
gentlemen who got the appointment for
Mr. Pclham, they would have hesitated
before placing in a, position of authority
over honoarble veterans, a man whose
w'ar record ended in the manner above
stated. We, ‘the members of the G. A. R.,

Modem‘armies do

cartridges are quite as much part and -
parcel of a modern army as the soldiers
who fire them off, and run' pretty nearly
similar risks. The methods of modern
warfare are exactly the same as of ancient .

actually gone back again to one of the
most ancient naval manoeuvers,
of ramming. The siege trains of the
present day are just as cumbersome as
siege trains in times when, as the Bible
tells us, “ Mountains and hillswere made

CARE—It is now mid-summer, and I still
. have on hand a large variety of summer gdods
more than I want to carry over to another season,
and I have determined to offer them to my regular
customers and to all cash purchasers at prices that
will speedily close them out and allow me to fill
their place with cloths for the fall trade. This de—
termination to reduce prices does not mean that
the workmanship is to be permitted to fall below
my well-established standard. but every garment
will be as well made and as fully guaranteed as
heretoiore. The .reduction is in the prices of ma.
terials, only that, and nothing more. But I shall
mark them so low that no one in need of custom
clothing can afford to buy elsewhere. Give me

To The Public 1 --—.B. CARD.
I have recently learned from creditable au-
thority that statements are 'being industri-
ously circulated, with the evident intent of in-
juring my business, to the effect that in my use
of the new process of onlbalming the (lead, an
exposure of the remains is usual and rendered
necessary for its efi‘cctual application. Noth-
ing can be further from the truth. [have used
the system which is now adopted by all the
leading and best undertakers of this country,
for nearly two years, during which time I have
not need a single mind of ice for preserving
the bodies oft 0 end. And 1 am‘the only lin-
dertaker who has not used it. . But in no in-
stance has it been necessary to expose any
nlore of the person of the corpse than is seen
after it is laid out in the casket for public view
and burial service. The process Ot'administer-
ing it is as delicate as the injection of a by 0-
dermic needle in the wrist -or hand to al ay
pain in the living subject. I confidently aleeal
to every friend of the more than a. bun red
subjects I have used the process upon and who
have witnessed its administration, to confirm
my statement in this respect, and to aid in re-
futing the injurious. cruel and heartless false-
hood to which I have been forced to refer.
