The President-EIecf
From the New York Sun

Mr.Tilden in the character of his mind
suggests Thomas Jefferson. He has been
from his boyhood close political OBJ
server and careful political student
He has the ability, so essential in Gov
ernor, of grasping questsons in their
breadth and also of taking them in their
details. His legal experience has been
that OF counsellor in great operations
rather than rs q pleader or routine
LAWYER. His clear head, astute perception,
sound Judgment, common sense and
rare executive capacity have been prized
by the organizers of cooperate enterprises
OF the country, and he has for years been
accustomed to deal with operations vast
IN their scope and requiring for their
intelligent management exceptional
mower and skill. There is not man in
the country more familiar with the his
tory ofour politics, the diversified inter
ests of the country, its public men and
the tone of the people of the different
sections, and who has more mature!views
in regard to them, thar. Samuel j Tllder.
He is essentially a conservative man.
No one need fear any rash experiments
under his administration. No one need
trembe at the possibility of his making
assault on theIresults achieved by the war.
He is also man who is capahi" "F
using the strong points of his adv'rsarles
to his advantage, and Incorporating what
is sound in their policy in that which he
will himself pursue, We toresee for Mr..
Tilden an administration which will be
conciliatory, but not yielding, and doubt
not that his career at Washington will
be undistnrbed by rancors, .unembittcred
by enmties, except such as he shall in
vite from individual officials whose cor
rupt practices, me shall expose and punish.
Mr.. Ti.den will go into the White House
with NOBLE ambition TO win lasting
fame as the President who harmonized a
country distracted by sectional anlmosi-
ties, who made stronger than ever the
bonds that hold together the Union, and
who helped to swell the tide of his coun-
trysmen's prosperity. His aims are
ststesmanlike, his mind is Of statesman
like build, and his training well fits him
for the high place to which the people
have elevated him. Samuel j. Tilden
will doubtless 60 down to history as one
of our strongest Presidents.

Church Fairs and Lotteries.

Methodist Recorder.
1t is about the season now for church
sociabes. The little games OF chance,
inciplent lotteries, palaver, pious deceit,
and showing of trit1es into visitors pos
session, IN return for their surplus cash
ali this doubtful business is likely to be,
gin. As managed, too many such en-
terprises result in putting brass into
young ladies' faces while taking the sill
yer out of young gentlemen's pockets.
Money so raised Is more apt to be an
abominstion than blessing. Why
should the people be inveigled into
doing their duty? If churches cannot be
built and the gospel supported, without
resortipg to means which are both silly
and demoralizing, let there be no build
ing and 10 preaching. Christianity is
worthy of honest patronage, and is only
hindered by any other. Jesus Christ /;
| not a child, to be amused with trinkets
He is the man OF men, and asks manly
service and candid discipleship.

New York Sun.
Grant has done what was of course to
be expected of him. He has ordered
troops to the doubtful States OF FLORIDA
and Louisians, to influence the count NJ

false or illegal returns. No one who
knows the man or understands the des-
perate mood of his advisers has any doubt
that the purpose of this new use Oh tue

The Louisiana Returning Board.

New York Herald.
They 1.-THE Republicans cannot afford
to forget, either, that the suspicion OF in
tended fraud b. the republican leaders in
Louisiana is well founded; that these
Louisiana republicans, whose partisan
Returning Board is to scrutinize the vote
OF the State, were two years ago detected
in the most glazing and INSCRIPTIONS
frauds, which received the condemnation
ot II republican Congress; that so much
lust doubt hangs about the election OF
Governor Kellogg four years ago that
republican United States Senate has per
sistently refused to acknowledge the
legality of the declared results, and at the
last session finally condemned them by
refusing to admit Mr.. Pinchback TO his
seat. They must bear in mind, too, that
the State government of Louisiana, thus
o. doubtful Legality by their own contes-
sion, and already convicted and con-
demned by them tor election frauds, Is
now accused not merely of q design to
make a false canvass OF the vote, but oil
having purposely and causelessly pre-
vented a part of the pseple OF Louisiana
from voting at all, by preventing the
I Commissioners of Election in several
democratic parishes from making the re-
ouisite and legal preparations for an cleo
ton. and also by ordering multltudes OF
arbitrary arrests just before election day
That is to say, the republican leaders
must not close their eyes to the plain fact
that the republican rulers of Louisiana
who have managed the election and who
are now to canvass the vote, are leglti-
mstely objects OF suspicion to the country,
and that the presumption of fraud hes
against them by the open condemnation
Of two republican houses of Congress: Il
YOU have convicted your servant OF theft
YOU may reasonably watch him while he

Senator Key on the Mississippi
Resolutions.
WAsHINeToN. March 81. 18T6.

" ASHlNGTON, March 81, 1915.
The Mississippi investigation resolu-
tions were resumed. Mr. Key, of Ten
nessee, was the only one of the Demo-
Gratis who voted for the resolution. He
said he was glad the late war was fought
out and was over with. The South was
not wholly to blame in the war Slavery
existed many years ago, and. was pro-.
tected by the Constitution. He spoke
highly Of the colored people and their
fidelity to the whites during the war and
thought the people of his State was will
ling to protect them ard aid them. The
South WAS poor and weak and wanted
peace. 1t was time to forget that there
was South or North. The war was over
and the conqucrors had right to enjoy
the results of their victory. He was viii
ling to admit that the terms granted by
the victors were much more liberal and
magnanimOus than he expected. He was
anxious to have the South acquiesce in.
the result and accept the situation.
Could not the North he asked, bear with
them and help them to overcome their
past difficulties and make this a land of
peace and prosperity? He should vote
for the resolution even though he should
be the only member of his party to do SO.
If this state of affairs existed the parties
ought to be punished and he did not wish
to have it said that he was in favor of
protecting them, but be did not think
the reports were true, yet he was willing
to have the subject investigated. The
speech throughout was highly cOncilia-
tory and dispassionate. After further
debate Christiancy's substitute was
adopted by vote of 24 to 10.

Mems Wives.

The New York Observer, in speaking
Of the Belknaps scandal, says men ought
not 20 permit their wives TO lead them
into wrong-doing and dishonor The
man is the head and ought to control his
own house. As mere specimen of big
talk this is all well enough, but it is all
humbug. nevertheless. Ever since
Adam ate that sour apple and got chok.
ed on the core, men have been doing
what Eve told them to do. Ever since
Sampson laid his big head IN pretty lit
tie Delila's soft lap and went to sleep,
like great fool as he was, and had his
locks shorn, men have been laying their
heads inEDeliIas' laps and going to sleep,
and awatening % fnd their hair crap
ped, !" their power of resistance all gone
and themselves the willing captives for
life in the hands of their wives.
Perhaps they are not always fools,
either. A man cannot be in possession
