THE CAPITAL CONVENTION,

The second Capital Convention, now
closing at Cincinnati, is failure, simply
because the fow st. Louis managers who
engineer it have SO much more pessistency
than brnins. It in time the people OF st.
Louis, If they would not wholly loso thei.

terrrisc, should suppress hIr. L. q. Reavir
in connection with it, and put forward the
men Who represent Missouri Mr.. neavi.
means well enough, but his persistent me-
.liocri,y will have the same effect upon
the success of this movement as that Of
Mr.. George Francis Train, Connt Joaanes,
or Colorado Je~ett, would have on any
movement in Which they participated.
The first Capital Convention received its
partial success from influences centriue
in Illinois and Iowa, and especially from
the press of Chicago. A man OF tact
would have perceived that the National
Convention, though sufficiently successful
in itself, was not IN experiment to be IT,
leatefs until far wider public opinion had
been created in favor Of the general OBJ
| iect. Failing II see this, the st. Louis
| engineers of this SECOND effort have me-
with Jiaxep. Three OR fur times IL.
many States were represented in tht
| iirsa convention as in this, aud il
a new convention shall be ordered unde,
the sane auspices, it is doubtful if any
| delegates outside Of Missouri will attend il.
This is because ST. Louis hns injudiciousls
assumed to run the machine when her owl
interests would have required that she b.
kept in the background, aud the whol'
Mississippi Valley should have been draw
by cou,mon iudacsmeut to participate ii
the effort The only notable feature Of th'
present convention isaletter from B1r. Gree
ley, favoring the removal Of the Nationa
Capital to New York This is fair sampl
Of Mr. Greeley's sagacity. Though
Republican, he would saturate Congress il
Democratic surroundings; thorgh pro
tectionist, he would bring Congress wher
every local influence Of society and th
press tend toward free trade of the mos
uncompromising type. Though the chic
reason for removing the capital is to locat
it more centrally as to the population an
area Of the country, he would remove
further from both than it now is.

The Republican majority in Ohio on the
State ticket is 16, 1130. Last fall it was only
1901. In nearly all the close counties the
Republicans madc gains. The only per-
ceiyable exceptions arc in those parts Of
| the State where high tarifhte WIS run for
Congress, as in the Dayton and Bellefon-
iaine districts. where both candidates,
sschenck and MeClung, wese beaten by Eea-
son of their adhesion to the interests of
the monopolists. Had revenue reform
candidates been nominated, both districts
wonld hare been saved. This is proved by
the fact that the Republican State ticket
received a majority of l23 in Schenck's
district, and nearly 400 in Meetings. One
of the mcst spirited contests in the State
was that in the Fourteenth District. Two
years ago Weker, protection:st, with
all the MD of General Grants
popularity was only elected by
iGe votes. 1t was generally conceded
that, if he ran again, he would be beaten !;
he, therefore, prndently stepped aside, and
Professor Monroe. Of Ooerlin, pro-
nouncet1 revenue 1eformer, was placed on
the track, end, after spirited canvass
against popular opponent, and on q full
vote, he was elected by nearly Loon ma-
jority. So Genera! Beatty, strong ad-
!, more than 1000 majority in a district that
, no protectionist" could have carried.
And the same was true in the Columbus
district, where Mr.. Shellabarge1, a revenuc
reformer, WIS e1octed over Jcwett, one OF
: The rloss popular Democrats in the State,
: by nearly 1900 majority, although the
district before tho election Was admitted te
> be 81 very doubtful The revenue reform
candidate also ca11lcd the Ninth
4 or sandusky District, by so
- majority, notwithstanding that Dick
-. - inson Oem.) Was elected by 1,Gs
majority two years ago, q part of whic
,a gain wns undoubtedly due to tho prove1
= - tion of the repetition OF the DEN
- ocratic frands pczpctrnted there
!. 1868. But the neatest triumph of II
revenue reformers wns in the two Cincinna
districts, which, last full, gave 1,;'os Den
ocratic minority, and now elect both Il
- publican candidates by an aggregate I
= - .,G00 tnajority. In tho Columbiana disttit
~ Amber, ptotectiouist, fell behind his N

An Unpromisins Year for the Pope and His
Church.

lut lOIIAhH VI oCbAAH "a AhAoAtA
bility upon the Catholic creed certainly
had q weakening effect upon the Church.
1t had the effect to detract from the res
pect in which the Church was before
held by the intelligent outside world.
The outside world is the harvest field,
the ground for proselytism, the great
vineyard in which the servants are so
often directed to labor. That is their
world to conquer. Those they take with
them to the work are merely laborers-
not the grain to be gathered. To
properly impress thinking people out
side Of abe fold, SO al by conviction to
conquer them. is the mission of the har-
yesters. To declare to thinking men,
slaves already to no dictum but hat of
their " good sense, that any man is
the sole embodiment Of the theories and
ethic rules destined to guide a world Of
intelligent men to everlasting glory, is
TO insult the standing grain, and defeat
the plan of the workers.
And now, morally weakened by the
institution of the Infallibility, the Pope
is threatened with physical dangers by
the withdrawal of the French troops,
leaving him only n thousand mortars
and fifteen hundred hard shells with
powder and fuse. It is a bad outlook
for the embodiment of the Infallibility.
We are disposed TO say, in the sacred
language, Physician, heel thyself!'
for Garibaldi will be around.
And Protestant Prussia is making
warm work for Napoleon on the Rhen-
ish border. The Emperor has good title
deeds to all the battle fields but the first,
but Bismarck may turn usurper. The
Pope's influence will be greatly con-
tracted by the war, unless q very great
change occur in the current of events as
presented by the Cable. Austria has
shaken off that influence almost entirely,
and the German States all have declared
their spiritual independence Of Rome.
