The French Crisis.

The ultimate results Of the overthrow Of
the French Cabinet are hard to predict II
may lead to nothing except some exchange
II big words IN the Versailles Assembly, and
II INA! hv the beginning Of u Low comp d'fdi
or possibly II new revolution. The Chamber
IS divided between Royalists and Republi-
cars. The army is divided between lmpe-
rialists and Republicans. There are, consc-
quently, three parties in the field, and that
is what makes it hand to forecast the issue
Of the struggle.
There are, however two OF three points in
this crisis which deserve special notice on
accohat Of their being particularly charac-
tcristic Of French political manners and
ideas.
The first point "a that the crisis IS cvi-
IDENTIFY conspratory work Of the Mon
archists Of various shades. Marshal MAC
MAHON is an honest soldier, who would have
stuck to the original arrangement under
which he was called TO power. But he has
pretty wife, who controls him completely,
and who is a thoroughgoing Monarchist.
The Monarchsts. aided by the clericals
have accordingly set to work upon the Pres
idont through his better half They wanted
TO have a MOuarchlst Cabinet for the pur-
pose Of manipulating the forthcoming cleo
tions for the General Councils and Municipal
Councils. A Cabinet headed by a man like
JULES SIMON would have managed to put
representatives. of republican principles
into all the Influential Offices throughout
France. This would certainly not suit
either the Right in the Assembly, or the
clerical party, or the Monarchlsts at largo.
Therefore it is that the Monarchi9ts have
forced Marshal MAoMAHOSs hand at this
moment.
Another curious point about this crisis, Is
the attitude Of the liberal JULES SIMON
toward the press. He never pretended L.
| oppose the obnoxious press law of 1915
He simply asked that press insults to the
/ President or foreign sovereign should be
/ tried by jury instead Of being subjected to
summary jurisdiction. A Republican Min
lister, who has been always considered Il
thoroughgolng radical in religious as wei
as in press matters, IS now begging that Ne
attack upon ruler should be left with
ont formal trial by jury. The fact that
JULES SIMON agreed 10 maintain any press
law Of this kind is an eloquent proof Of tn,
fear with which all mon in Office regard tn,
possibility Of Germany being offended a
anything said in the French papers.
The last, yet not least, Characteristic poln
Of this crisis is that the same radical JULIE,
SMoN acknowledged in the Council Of Min
listers the danger Of the publicity of the sit
tngs Of the Municipal Councils, provision
for securing which the Assembly has jus
passed in the new municipal law. The Oh
lection 10 the publicity of these sftings Il
based upon sheer fear Of the city mob
We see thus that Franco is AT this mo
ment laboring under at least three yer,
fatal Influences: the fear of the Germans
the fear Of the mob, and the iutugues o
clcrlcalism. Whether or not the Repub
lican elements are strong enough to carr.
the country through this trial, remains to b.
seen.

The Supply Bill.

Tho good use that Gov. ROBINSON has
made of that section Of our amended Con
stitution which empowers him TO veto some
items in an appropriation bill while APP
proving the rest, ought TO encourage other
States to adopt u similar provision The
Governor has stricken from the supply hill
about forty items that amount to more than
a million and half Of dollars. This bill, as
Is usual contained large appropriations that
are absolutely necessary to carry on the
Government; and the bad items We're
spriukled among these. Under the Consti-
tuition as II stood Of old, Governors were
powcrlcss and the State was plundered We
believe the Constitution Of every State In
tho Union remains in this respect as ours
was before the amendment. They should
make haste to copy our example.
Gov. ROBINSON has Disseminated wisely in
the application of the veto. If he has made
any mistakes they are by Withholding the
pruning knife. For the present at least,
and We hope forever, he has stopped the
waste OF money upon that gigantic swindle,

promoters OF other moro worthy public
structures TO wait till the State treasury is
in better condition. lie knocks in the head

and they applaud the pluck of the official
who saves their money.

Tho Saturday Rerieio finds great fault
with the press Of this country for what
it regards as its intrusive personality. 1t
thinks the press Of the United States med
dies with private matters which do not con-
Germ the public, and in which, if they have
any interest at all, the interest is morbid.
In fine this London weekly journal discovers
that our newspapers are very unlike the

ought 10 be.
