with the aid of the police, counted him
out in all the uptown wards"
The reporter has thus attempted the
forlorn enterprise Of representing grand
personal quarrel where there was nothing
more than the ordinary anxiety for per-
sonal success.
The election Of delegates on Wednes-
day turned upon the most efficient repre-
sentation of nationa! Republican princi-
Piles, with the best possible cooperation
with the lead-off at Cincinnati. This
will merely devolve upon the convention
the duty of nominating candidates as
near like Hayes and Wheeler as possible.
The State is now being carefully sampled
for that purpose.
The Times reporter suggests the i'm
probable joke that the author and original
employer of the Returning Roard law had
denounced its interference in the conven-
ton elections. As this body is composed
Of voluntary representatives Of party opin-
ion, it is not obvious how the obnoxious
institution referred to could have affected
the result. We have indeed been told Of
Bloody instructions which, bel taught, return
To plague the inventor.
We can, however, see no occasion or
evidence for any such acknowledgment.
We therefore regard this insidious attempt
to create dissensions when there are no
parties in recognized antagonism as a
feeble failure. The reported remarks, 50
imputable as to have constituted almost
self-reproach shows mischievous pur-
pose to disturb Republican equanimity
with immaterial absurdities Let US have
no more bogus interviews. A Times cor
respondent has said "that the average Lou
isiana politician will cultivate the Asso-
ciated Press agent in such a bountiful
manner as to transmit intelligence or dis
patches framed by the parties themselves"
Such devices of bogus interviews and
fast dispatches are Of no force. Such de-
vices may sell two editions of the sensa-
ton press, that which publishes the
bogus, and that which contradicts the
same bogus, but the people put no more
trust in the telegraph than in the sensa-
ton press. If Franklin brought down
the lightning from heaven, he did not
bring down the eternal venters with it.

Two girls went out to the lawn to play
croquet. They were schoolmates and were
never to be separated. They walked to-
gether with each an arm about the waist OF
the other, as young ladies will walk for
want of better employment of arms. 1t
was agreed between them that if one got
married first the other should come to live
in the same house as con- pany. The croquet
game progressed as far as making the sec
ond wicket by the first player, when some.
thing was said about cheating, and some
thing else which sounded like . different
opinion, differently expressed. Then 81
lence ensued, and one mallet was thrown
away in tho grass plot and another over
tho fence. The girls will not speak to each
other again until they both get new dresses.

A PREMIUM ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY.

A PREMIUM ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY.
Tie administration of the city govern
ment, though four or five times as expen-
sive as that of the State, is not held to any
responsibility. 1t is Democratic, and, as
such, has been free from comment, GER
tainly from censure. The whole RESPONSE
bility for the loss of trade and burdens OF
taxes is thrown upon the Republican
State government. Democracy is infalli-
bic.
when said Administrator Burke, "we
assumed the reins of government in De-
cember. 1874, the city was upon the verge
debt from the results of past improvidence. "
He adds:
The average expenses of the city gov
eminent under our control for the past
eighteen months is One.half Of the aversge
expenses for any like period within the past
ten years.
Yet, we learn, from the same authority,
that the amount of money actually paid
to employees, and the amount of work
done to show for it is over twenty per
cent more than the records of previous
administrations exhibit.
1t is also said that the present city ad-
ministration will have reduced the public
debt three million dollars, reduced the
expenses of government to ope-half of
previous expenses, and reduced taxation
from two and one-half to one and one
half per cent per annum.
This is a very favorable showing, but it
is undoubtedly at the expense of Mayor
Wilt and his Democratic colleagues, in
common with the other predecessors of
the present administration. We can not
forbear to do justice to Mayor Wilt by
remarking upon the peculiar economy
with which this reduction of the public
debt and taxation has been in part
effected. The successors Of Mayor Witt
first refused to pay the interest on the
public debt, and then proposed to the pub
lie creditors particular mode Of scaling
their debts, which would seem to have
been successful to the interests stated.
Mr.. Burke speaks for the Admin
istrator of Finance, when we be-
lieve he represents Disturbing
agency only; but we do not suppose
our secretary Of the treasury would say

BOGUS INTERVIEWS.

The Democratic reporters have been
very busy attributing to politicians
speeches and interviews which have no
other foundation than rumor or inven-
ton. The Times has reported promi-
nent politician as appearing confident
that he had won the day unless by the
Returning Board process his opponents,

Richard Grant White knows more than
Daniel Webster ever knew. A meddlesome
person said to Webster: "Are you Chris
tian!' The statesman replied II hope and
trust l am" trying to combine future
realization, expressed in hope, with pre-
sent condition. Mr.. Webster evidently
wanted to say that he hoped for Christianity
when out of politics.

It is said they live longest who have
moderate ambitions. The man who quits
work and commences to whittle in front of
. grocery store at the age of thirty is likely
to whittle and be blessing to his family
for fifty years.

A great truth writer, one who would look
for moral in mutton pie, referring to the
death Of George Sand, says: "a kind Of
retribution seems to overtake female writers
who cloak themselves in masculine Names"
Considering the fact that Nine. Dudevant
was seventy-two years of age, and had no
particular use for herself when she died, it
does not appear that retribution skirmished
about very lively for the old lady.
