MAJoRITIEs FOR HARRIS.

MUSCLE vs. BRAINS The editor of the
New York Commercial seems to have attend
ed palltieal primary election or committee
meeting lately, for he writes ut is sad to
know that our very best young men take SO lit
tie interest in political Matters but permit the
unwashed and short-haired muscle men to con-
troll the politics of the city, both democratic
and republican. 1t would be hopeful sign for
the country if our educated young men could
be induced to bear their part iu al matters re-
lating to the government Of the country. 1t is
muscle and poor whskey, not intelligence. hon.
esty and virtue tina control our politics :"
What the Commercial here says is too true
and applicable in some degree or other to more
parts of the country than one.

And her shield, Omnipotence,
Blessed for the Lamb shall feed her,
All her tears shall wipe away.
