AND now the Argus astonishes its readers
by declaring that John Morrissey has been
Republican for several years. Does it forget
that for two terms Morrissey represented the
strongest Democratic district in New York
In Congress and was at last defeated by Mr..
Roosevelt because Boss Tweed wlled it?
Last year the argus might have found that
illustrious name on the lists of Democratic
rallying committees vigorously at work for
Greeley and Herman, though he went with
Apollo Hall ring in city affairs. Does the
argus not know that Mr.. Morrissey was
delegate in the late Democratic State Con-
vention and during the last canvass was
leading member of the Tammany organiza-
ton, and as a member of the executive COM
mittee Of that organization moved the expul-
sion of Police Commissioner Charlick on the
ground that he officially used his influence
against Tammany candidates election day?
The editor of the argus must be absent from
his post, for it is not possible that the gen
tleman who has for years conducted the lead
ing Democratic paper in Maine could allow
himsefto exhibit such profound ignorance
respecting the magnates of his own party.

Two of Gen. Ryan's recruits captured on
the Virginius were New Jersey boys only sew
enteen years of age. When we look for the
inspiration that led these boys to become
filibusters, it is found that for long time
they had been together reading over and
wondering at the marvels of the perncious
dime literature. The influence of this trash
completely upset them and they left comfort
able homes, thirstiug for some adventure that
might give their names a place in ten cent
pages. Accordingly they enlisted with Gen.
Ryan. One on account of his youthful ap-
pearance has been liberated, but the fate of
the other is uncertain. When one considers
how great part of the attempt to secure uni
versal education has only resulted in sufficient
knowledge to make these books Ineligible
and is devoted almost exclusively to the pc
rusal of such books, he has very good cause to
conclude that the portion of the young who
thus use their education had better been left
in state of nature.

GEN. MYER Familiarity known as ''Old
Probabilities is making arrangements to ex-
tend his valuable system of weather reports
so as to include daily report of the principal
navigable rivers in the country. To illus.
trate its importance, the Mississippi river
may be taken as an illustration. Its source
is everywhere, and any where; from
all the little creeks in Western New
York reaching the Pennsylvania rivers
that flow into the Ohio, from the
streams in Montana and Wyoming that find
their way into the Mississippi and from In
dian territory, Texas and Arkansas the river
finds the ''Father of Waters" To the ship
pers of the vast products of the Mississippi
valley the stage of the water in the trbuta-
sizes of that river is of great Importance. Also
in giving notice of the rapid rise o. trihuta-
ries of rivers, great losses of property may be
prevented. Last year the sudden rise of the
Shenandoah was foretold in time to secure
large amounts of property in Washington and
Georgetown. Gen. Myer has no appropria-
ton for this branch of observation and pro-

without expense. To that end he has issued
circular giving instructions how to take ac-
curately the stage of water in rivers and such
other matters in connection that may be val
liable. The system has been started at sew
eral stations en- the tributaries. Any person
desiring further information on this subject
should address the Chief Signal Officer of the
Army, Washington, d. C.

The OYerthraw Of THEIRS

A special from Paris gives the following as
the text of President McMahons' address to
the prefects:.
1 have been called, through the confidence of
the National Assembly to the Presidency of
the Republic No immediate change will be
made in the existing laws, regulations and in
situations rely upon material O1der and
count upon you, upon your vigilance and upon
your patriotic assistance. The ministry will be
formed to-day.
There was extreme excitement in the Nation
al Assembly chamber pending the discussion
which resulted in the deposition of Theirs and
the exalting of McMahon. In the Presidents
box were Theirs, the Project of the Depart
ment of the Seine and others, who were gestlcu-
lating quite wildly, and once the Project was
called to order for the ardor of his enthus-
iasm.
The diplomatic corps was well represented,
but Lord Lyons, the British Minister, was not
present, being engaged in giving dinner and
reception in honor of Queen Victorias birth
day. Many celebrated women of Napoleon's
court as well as IF the Republic, occupied con-
spicuous places and remained until the politi-
cal change was consummated.
AS soon as the vote was taken deposing
Theirs the representatives of the different
countries Immediately left the chamber and
telegraphed the news to their respective gov
ernments
Theirs sat a close watcher of the events and

THEEE months ago the lumber dealers and
manufacturers of Maine were promised an
unusually busy and profitable season, las build
ing was to be carried on very extensively in
New York, Brooklyn and in other large cities.
But events then unforeseen, have since trans
pired that make the lumber market unusu-
ally dull, with no immediate prospect of fav-
orable change. In March, some of the mis-
chievous leaders of the carpenters unions in
New York began, in view Of the promising
season for labor, to organize for a strike in
case of refusal to pay such wages as the car
penters should demand. In consequence of
this, hundreds of those proposing to build ex-
tensively, abandoned the idea until such a
time as it can be done without the risk and
expense involved in a strike. Now thousands
of joiners are idle, thousands will still be
obliged to pay high rents for poor accommo-
dations and the lumber business which gives
support to thousands of men, as well as
many other industries are stagnant. The
general comment must be that the action of q
few leaders has been most unwise and deplor
able in its results.
