THANKS TO SPEAKER BL.tINE.

Among the last acts of the closing Con-
gress was a vote of thanks to Speaker
Blaine. Mr.. Potter of New York moved
and Mr.. Beck of Kentucky seconded (both
democrats) a vote of thanks to Speaker
Blaine ''for the impartality, efficiency and
distinguished ability with which he has
discharged the trying and arduous duties
of his office during the Fortythrd Con-
gress.' "In the case of Mr. Blaine" says
the New York York Times ''this is some
thing more than merely formal testi-
monial. Probably never since the great
reconstruction debates has Speaker of
the House of Representatives had to face
SO many delicate and difficult emergencies
as have confronted Mr.. Blaine during the
session now about to close His conduct
in the chair has compelled universal re-
spect, and fewer exceptions have been
taken to his rulings than have ever been
recorded during period OF similarly eX-
cited party feeling Certainly not the
least of the losses to the business of legis-

political power in the House will be the
impossibility of finding Speaker of the
ability, courage, and honesty of Mr.
Blaine to preside over the lower branch

THAT CITIZENS TICKET.

The citizens ticket at the head of which
stands the name of William S. Badger as
a candidate for Mayor, calls to mind the
fable Of the ass which put on lions skin
and attempted to pass himself off among
the other beasts as a veritable monarch of
the forest.
Under the guise of a citizens ticket
we discover in the candidates nominated
the bray OF the democratic ass. Mr.. Bad
ger was the Postmaster of this city under
James Buchanan, and would be offended
if at any other time than the present his
democracy were considered cquivocal.
Personally we have nothing TO say against
him, but politically We know what he
is. and would advise all republicans not
to be deceived by the skin he has put on.
He is the same democrat now as when he
held Office under Mr.. Buchanan.
Looking along the candidates for alder
men nominated on the ticket with Mr.
Badger we find them all democrats with
out solitary exception. There isn't the
first peg anywhere upon which to hang a
doubt of their unadulterated democracy.
1t doesn't speak very much for their hon
esty to be concerned in the game of de-
ception which they are playing, but we
leave others to discuss the moral feature
of the position in which they have placed
themselves, while we content ourselves
with warning our friends not to be dipped
by them.

In the second battle of Bull Run Gcner-
General Pope which he refused to obey
While the battle was going on he failed
to bring his corps on the field, shamefully
fell back, retreating without attempt
ing to strike blow or knowing the force
of the enemy. Had he obeyed orders and
brought his corps into action as brave
and true soldier would, decisive victory
would have been gained by the Union
army where il had to endure Notifying
defeat and heavy loss. For his conduct
upon that occasion he was tried by a
court-martial, found guilty and sentenced

The passing of the control OF the House
of Representatives from the republican
party into the hands of the democracy
clicits much comment from the newspa-
pers, and brings the people at large to
thoughtful consideration of the sterling
virtues of the republican party, the grand
deeds which it has accomplished, and the
possible effect OF the transfer of power to

When his last words and the hammer fell there

manifestation of non partizan approval that, for a
moment, the strong man bowed his head to con-
ceal his emotions.
APPROPRIATIONS REDUCED.
The aggregate Of appropriations this year, as
compared with those of last year, it is claimed,
will show reduction in appropriations this ses-
sion certainly of five millions, possibly of seven
millions. One noticeable feature of the sppro-
priations Of this session is the very strict lilnta-
lions which have been placed upon all appropria-
items. The policy OF abolshing indefinite appro-
priations, which was begun last year, has been
strictly followed and greatly extended. The lin
tation is such that with two exceptions there are
no appropriations for public buildings for which
there are not actual plans and detailed statements
of estimates.
