A Rule that Doesn't Work both Ways.

For good many years the United States
was much exercised over the nnenlight-
ened policy of the Chinese in excluding
Foreigners. These short sighted barbarians
in shutting out us and our wares, shut out
al,o the benign influences of civilization.
At last the barbarians threw open their
gates. We rejoloed for CANA. We joined
in the international jubilee of dlsinterested
JOY at this evidence Of growing enight-
enment. In other words we joined in tho
rush 10 get inside and turn an honest
penny.
Is 1t not n little funny thar the Senate
which ratified the BuRLINGAME treaty
should now be discussing the propriety Of
restricting Chinese lmmlgration2 Has iho

Political News.

The Cincinnati Enquirer credits Mr.. Thur
man with willingness to consent to the
Democratic advocacy of an unconditional re.
peal of the Resumption bill.
The Republican convention in Chester
County, Penn, refused, by vote of 33 nays
to 27 yeas, to instruct its delegates to the
National Convention to labor for the nomin.
alton cf Gov. Hartranft for President.
Considering the vote in Congress on Mon
day, the Cleveland (Ohio) Herald saws:
"The position stands thus: Against the
right of secession, the Republicans in solid
phalanx. For the right of secession, the
Southern Democrats. On the fence, or hid
ing behind it, the Northern Democrats"
Mr.. Watsons, a prominent member of the
Union League Club informs a newspaper
man that 1.-The Reform Club is not pressing
the claims of any Presidential candidate. 1t
contains men who would like Bristow at the
head of the ticket, others who favor Blaine.
or W. A. Wheeler, or Hamilton Fish. The
members only demand tnat the man chose n
shall have no ambiguous antecedents on re-
form principles; also that the New York del
egation to the national convention shall be
unpledged and uninstructed.'
"And now Pendleton is gone. All our
great men are breaking down. am doing a
little forging myself" said Jones, pensively,
yesterday.
Among the men mentioned for the Repub-
lican nomination for Governor of New York
are A. B. Cornell, Judge Robertson, Con
gresham Wheeler and Speaker Hustled.
