OLD ISSUES.


The Democrats and the Assistant
Democrats Gate Liberals) don't
want to hear anything about the
issues of the late war. Those are
all settled, they say, and belong to
the past. It ''harrows up their
souls" to be referred to their war
record. But with characteristic
consistency, they go back ten years
further and rake up Henry Wilson's
Know Nothing record. Oh, no,
they don't believe in discussing old
issues. They Thick Mr.. Wilson's
Know Nothing record ought to kill
him politically. But say a word
about their attempt 10 resist the
government in putting down the re-
bellion; to buan northern cities to
inject the people of the north with
fatal diseases; the doings of their
secret-bound rebel organizations,
and they fly to pieces at once.
Now it happens that their dearly
beloved Horace also has a Know
Nothing record to explain. The
New York Express has a ceres
pendent who brings to light q
speech made at Kingston, New
York, as late 1858, in which he ad-
vocated the passage of ga law ex-
Guiding the foreign born citizen
from a vote in that State until he
resided IN 1T as long as the american
born citizen, exercising the same
franchise" That is, that the intel
ligent immigrant fleeing from the
despOtisms of the old country
try should remain here twenty-on
years before he was clothed with
the privileges of citizenship.
We guess the less mongrels say
about past records the better they
will como out of the fight.

The conflict between the New
York strikers and their employers
seemed to have subsidized to some
extent. The men seemed at first
bound to an easy victory-but the
vigorous stand now taken by the
employers has somewhat changed
the face of affairs. The success of
the great strikes has not been COM
mensurate with their extent. The
piano-makers confessed TO failure,
and the coach-makers returned to
work at ten hours day; and al
though the instances OF success in
obtaining the desired reduction OF
hours are many, the failures are
more. The most important strike
that of the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS not
settled at last accounts. The iron
workers are thoroughly organized,
and 1t is said that they have half a
million dollars at their disposal, so
we may suppose they will hold out
well. But as the Employers Board
of Iron-Founders recently held q
meeting, in which they announced
their determination to make no con-
cessions in wages or hours, we sup
pose there will be a tough contest.
There were some collisions between
the strikers and the police, and
meetings were held by q number of
workmen to protest against the al
legged unnecessary violence of the
officers in dispensing assemblages of
strikers. 1t must be said, however,
that the strikers have not been al
together lamb-like in their treat
ment of workmen who have refused
to join them. We sympathize fully
with every movement that will i'm
prove the condition of working men
in any respect. Capital is arbitrary
and oppressive. But we think the |
strikers made q mistake in demand
ing too much at once. They ought |
first TO have attempted reform by
adopting the eight hour movement. |
After this wns accomplished, it /
would have been easier to advance |
wages to what they now get for ten |
hours of work. Tho demand for /
eight hours work and ten hours
pay was too much to undertake at |
once.

France is hard to strap. There
really appears to be no end to her
financial resources. Not yet ex-
hausted by the immense payments
already made to Germany she has
just paid Switzerland two million
francs toward the expenses of
Bourbakis army incurred there,
and proposes to pay the remaining
two million two hundred thousand
almost Immediately. In addition
to this France also undertakes to
pay Germany two milliard of francs
on or before February 18th, 1873,
one milliard more before the close
of 1873, and the remaining one mil
lard during 1874, the Germans con-
senting to evacuate the departments
of Marine and Haute- Marine when
half milliard of the February in
stallment shall have been paid,
which will be done very soon, and
to reduce the army of occupation
by one-third its present numbers
on the full payment of each install
ment. All of which is simply won
derful, and shows the French spirit
better than anything else connected
with their history since the war.
France will be heard from again.

1t must be very announcement to
owe the Germans any money. 1t
appears that the Government OF
Hayti was indebted TO the German
merchants doing business in that
Republic, by reason of several fore
ed loans levied upon them during
the revolution there, and as the
Haytian government was disposed
TO be slow in the matter of pay
ment, German fleet went to Port
au Prince, in the capacity of col
Letting agent, and got fifteen thous-
and dollars by bombarding the city
and capturing the entire Haytian
navy. The dun was rather a novel
one, but it proved very effective.

We have before us an article
written by Dana, of the New York
Sun, in 1865, which makes Grant, in
all respects, the greatest man this
country ever produced. Now there
is nothing too mean and low for
this same Dana-this'sam liar and
villifler of the characters of public
n, to say about the President.
WI Dana wrote the article first
allua to, he wanted an Office.
He di not get it. Hence the change
in his tune. This is the elevated
motive which induces him to villify
Grant and his cabinet. Is such a
man worthy the confidence of hon.
est and impartial voters.

Among the candidates mentioned
for Governor are John NJ. Price, of
Atchison, T. A. Osborn, of Leaven-
worth, Elijah Sells, of Douglas, and
Charles w. Eskridge, of this city.
Without wishing to disparage the
other gentlemen, we must say we
believe Eskridge is the best one on
the list. He is the only man from
Central and Southwestern Kansas
mentioned for the important Office.

New York papers make light of
the Boston Jubilee. They say the
performers on the stage outnumber
the audience; that big crowd goes
out daily to the Coliseum, where
they get a chance to see the must
clans without paying, buy five
cents worth of peanuts, and go
away. There is q little of the "sour
grape" tone in all this on the part of
New York. They may be just a
mite jealous, for so far as we are
able to judge, the jubilee is "big
thing"
