.. PARTY niscinline. -


Hon. c. W. Wizards paper, the Mont
pelier Freeman. seems TO sympathize to some
extent with Mr.. Sumner in his controversy
with the President. In It's last leader, under
tie above title. it maintains at some length,
that the President is not the dictator Of the
policy Of the party; that it is foolish and
wrong TO use party machinery to compel
acquiescence on the part Of republicans in
the policy Of the President; that the Presi-
dent has 10 exemption, as president. from
honest criticism and that there is no more
disloyalty to republicanism in Senator Sum
ner's differing from President Grant, than in
President Grants differing from Senator
Sumner.
These are all very true, We might say self
evident propositions; but they do not seem
to Us to be the points at issue. The Presi-
dent has 10 right to assume the dictatorship
Of party policy; and few presidents have
been less open to such charge than Presi-
dent Grant. Buthe has the right, and it is his
duty-to recommend public measures which
he deems Of importance and his recommen-
dations are entitled to respectful considera-
ton at the hands of Congress, and to fair
and candid investigation when investigation
is asked for. The Presidents recommenta-
ton in reference to San Domingo, was an
open and souaro one, and entitled to respect
faI treatment at the hands Of its opponents.
Senator Mortons resolution asked simply
f5r an investicatioa-and 1t was, in our
humble Judgment, the true policy for Mr..
Sumner and Of the opponents Of the treaty,
to second. rather than TO resist it.
Again, the President is ofcourse as open to
criticism as any other mortal; and by virtue
O. his high position, Is moro subject TO it
than other men. Bat Lc has the same right
to fair and unprejudioeI criticism, that other
men have. The weakness Of Nj. Summers
present position before the country, is that
be has clearly shown to tie public that he Is
in a state of personal evaporation, in which
fair and unprciadiced criticism on his part

L seems hopeless to expect impartial or
lust verdicts from jury in New York City.
On what possible evidence could the coro-
ner's jury which was supposed to investigate
the circumstances attending the death Of the
four men who were crushed by the fall Of
the piano factory in that place the other
dsv. have brought in verdict generating
the builder and contractor, when it was no.
torious that the wretched shell was built with
so utter q disregard TO all considerations Of
safety, that even some Of the workmen de-
serted the place as TO- dangerous, and the
contractor was repeatedly warned that the
building could never stand. Tie require
ments Of the law, it was said, were com
piled with in the construction Of the blild-
ing, and the ju-y by their suggestion that q
special law be framed with regard TO isolated
structures seem to imply that the law and
not the building was defective. This is mere
su5tsrfuce. The letter of the law might
have been observed, but assuredly its spirit
was violated and it is to this tie jury
should have looked. Besides, if no building
law stood on the statute book Of New York
State, the case fJr the responsible persons
was no better, since it is obvious that in put
tin. UP a building ia 50 cheap and fimsy a
manner as to be a constant danger to all in
it, they were morally and should be legally
responsible for the death Of the men who
were crushed by It's fall.

from the wounds inflicted by assatsins, has been
FOR many years a prominent man in Spanish

Prozresistss in their opposition to the Dictator
ship Of Espartero he vas ACCUSED ofcomplicity in
the insur1ection Of Saragossa in 1912 ard took
refuge in France. In 1913, elected deputy to
the Corte. from Barcelona, he returned to Spain,
again opposed Espsrtero and headed an insur-
rec,ion in his native city, but was defeated. On
the return Of the Queen Mother to power, he was
made a general and governor of Madrid, but was
shortly after diszraced by the Queen, tried for
high treason and sentenced to Few month"; i'm
nrisonment. In 1S59-6O he distinguished himself
in the war agsinst Morocco and was made
rraudee Of Spain. He was sent in 1862 to Vera
