WHO SHALL KEEP ORDER IN
MEXICOs

We shall probably have advices, In few
days, that the Mexican Liberals have cap
tured Vera Cruz, and Macmillan, and thus
ended the existence of the slckly creation
known as the Empire. What will happen
then is not so readily indicated. Whether
Juarez and his followers have the power, or
having the power, then the disposition TO
re organize the miserable wreck of Govern
m entail power, and afford competent protec-
ton to life and property, remains to be seen'
and is at least questionable.
We doubt very much whether there will
ever be settled condition of things in Mex
leo, till the United States takes the control
into its own hands, in manner more or less
direct. What the manifest destiny of Mexico
and Canada is, with reference to our Repub-
lie, we presume no rational person with his
eyes open doubts. That their absorption is
only question of time there can be nc
question. A healthy growth always crowds
out sickly one.
This being the case, we hope to see oul
Government send men or money, or both, In
the right way and at the proper time, to en-
force and maintain law and order in Mexico
Our Protectorate is not only our right, bu
it will doubtless be our duty.

PRESIDENT MAKING.

We have already indicated our opinion
that no obstacle lies in the path of General
Grants Presidential success, except the
doubt Of his political opinions, inspired by
his remarkable reticence. Should his friends
urge his claims and this objection be rcmov-
ed, the next Presidency is settled.
But suppose either Of these contingencies
does not occur. In that case, we have the
choice OF other military men, and to our
mind nothing is more just than that either
the President or Vice President must be one
of the national heroes of the war, and moth
ing is palmer than that the people will insist
upon their having this reward. We have
then among eligible military men, Generals
Thomas, Logan, Sherman, and possibly
others, their availability and popularity
ranging probably in the order in which
we have named them. General Thomas i
a strong man his war record is second t.
none in our army; he is personally very
popular; while his views on national ques
tions are in an eminent degree satisfactory
General Logan has these advantages. ant
some which General Thomas has not. Fl,
is not only soldier but an eloquent speake
and skilled leader in public life familia
with political platforms, and party manage
ment.
As for Gen. Sherman, we confess to NOR
admiration for his military genius, and gra
itude for his magnificent services to ii
country, than thorough confidence in his pr
litical theories. His brother, the Senate
2 is sound Republican, perhaps, but he is nj
an ardent Or distinctiyely radical one, {

THE CONSISTENT BA YARD.
The Philadelphia Telegram says:-


1.-The present Bayard is not chevalier
sans peur ct sans reproche.n Courageous
as was the knight, he must certainly have
possessed decision of character, and been
consistent with his principles. But the Hon.
James A., OF Delaware, seems to have lost
the qualities Of him of the same name, and
wanders through labyrinths Of principle and
policy until he loses himself When the
United States Senate adopted the iron-clad
oath, and applied il to all its members, the
then Senator from Delaware, after battling
against its consttutionality, declared his de-
termination to forever quit body thus de-
graded, and, after taking the oath with melo-
dramatic effect, rendered his resignation.
We naturally supposed that the country had
seen the last of Bayard as Senator. But
now, however, he ''revisits the glimpse of
| the moon, and returns to the same Senate
he quilted in disgust, and quietly takes the
same iron-clad oath that drove him from his
seat three years ago. How is it that the
constitutional spirit that could not brook the
illegal oath then is willing to take it now p
The truth is Mr.. Bayard finds that the

DIAMOND PEOPLE.


The time has passed by when diamonds
are owned only by sold families" coming
down from one generation to another as heir
looms. They no longer serve to distinguish
aristocracy and blood" from the vulgar
"us" who compose the democracy and are
not bloody. What distinguishing mark re-
mains to divide the sheep from the goats,
the no5iesse from the canailie, we scarcely
know, but it is very evident that the possess
sion OF wearing of diamond jewelry fails
of its ancient importance.
Thus we find in recent publication CIV
ing list of the persons in New York who
own valuable diamonds, that the Living
stons, the Schuylers, the Van Renssalaers,
the Stuyvesants, and others of the true blood
of New York are totally unable to make a
show by the side of people of other extrac-
ton. In the latter list we have Mrs. Barney
| Williams, the Irish actress, who "has fine
diamond pin, worth $1,000" Mrs Helmbold,
wife of the great advertiser, the Buchu'
druggist, s'has some fine solitaire diamonds,
and necklace of beautiful workmanship,
valued at $4,000. Mrs. Barreda, wife OF
the Peruvian gentleman who used to be the
agent of Peru, in this country, for the sale
of guano, .has superb diamonds, valued at
upwards of $4,000, including some magnifi
cent necklaces and earrings Mr.. Udolpho
Wolfe, of g Schiedam Schnapps" fame, the
father of all the "Btters' tribe, !" wears {
splendid solitaire pin and ring worth $4,000
each, and the ladies Of his family connec
tions have very elegant single stone ear
rings and other diamond jewelry wortl
$4,000
Beside all these, there are others Of still
less distinguished origin. to be included
in the diamond list. Adah Isaacs Menken
.the Mazeppan has $4,000 worth; Mel
Bryant, of Bryant's Ministries, wears clus
ter pin worth $4,000, and a cluster ring
worth 81 800. John Morrissey has soil
taire vafiously valued at 81 900 to $4,000
and Mrs. NJ, is said to have large collec
tion of fine diamond rings, estimated Q
$1,000.
Thus the parvcnues beard the respects
bility in their very strong holds, and GU
carbon the very diamondest Of them all.
this direction there is no encouragement f
the aspirations of any one, be he boot-blae
or scavcnger

NOT POSTED.

We find in the DcidOarean, clipped from
venomous sheet in Eastern Pennsylvania :
1.-THE bumpers have spent the winter dis
cussing plans for republican constitutions in
States where they are in the minority; bu,
as yet they have refused to give republican
constitution to the Providence Plantation
alias State of Rhode Island, in the place OF
its present Royal Charter from the King OF
England. Under it no poor white man can
vote; hence the enemies of democracy
always voted down any attempt to change
it. Little Rhody may be truly said to be
the only loyal State in the late Union. -
DoylestoDn Democrat.
1t so happens that this little argument,
like many others from the same sources, il
not founded on fact. Rhode Islands Con
stitution is not one derived from the King
of England, but from the framing and adop
ton of the people Of that State, in 1912
Under it poor white men are not prohibited
from voting.
These facts of history, these astute Demo
cratic preachers would do well to consult
before expressing themselves with sucl
assurance.
