SEPTEMBER FAIRS.


During last week began the succession of
State Fairs, twenty-throe States holding an
nually these mammoth GATHERINGS from that
time until October 8. In this city, which is
one of the worlds great caravansaries, and
where conventions, religious, scientific or po-
Htical, meet every year, hold their sessions
stormy OF peaceable, and melt away again
into the shifting crowd without causing rip
pie of excitement or adding sound to the
noise on Broadway, we can have no idea of
the agitation which one of these State or even
county fairs creates to the furthest limit of an
inland community.
The Fair, US pretext for bringing people
together, has for twenty years taken the place
of the ancient political Mass-meetings of the
North. and the Barbecues and Camp-meetings
of the South. All the tribes of the farm dis
tricts 20 up to it. Not the fancy stock raiser
alone, with his fashionable Clothes high
crowned hat, shining sulky and thoroughbred
mare, or his neighbor the Squire, solid and
keen-eyed, in his muddy "Jarsey," the broad
back of his coat burned dozen shades /;
but their wives and their daughters also, the
storekeeper with whom they trade in the village,
the lawyer who expounds greenbacks OF the labor
question TO them in the drug shop of an
evening the editor Of the county paper, and
his young cOllege-bred man-of-all-work, who
writes leading articles, gums wrappers and
mails the paper by turn. Specimens of all
the farm stock join the great caravans mon

neys and miniature bantams, famous imported

THE PATH or DUTY AND SAFETY

Mr.. Eugene Hale is right. The path of duty
is the only path of safety for the Republican
party. That it will be annihilated if it falters
or bubbles, on questions OF the currency or
the public faith, is as plainly declared by the
vote in Maine as il has been by THE TRIB-
UHE for years. Those who would not believe
before, those who sought personal safety in
straddling fences, those who hoped that a
great question Of National honesty would
somehow elbow over" or settle itself with
out inconvenience TO them, will now be forced
TO take position, either for public faith or for
public swindling. Such men will have to bear.
moreover, all the disadvantages to which their
prolonged refusal TO confront error manfully,
and their weak disregard of solemn pledges
of the Republican party, now subject them.
Their only hope is to make amends, by cOur-
ageous and earnest effort, for the harm which
timidity and indecisiOn have done to them
selves and their party. In any attempt to
compete with the Nationals for the favor OF
those who want more greenbacks, no bank
notes, taxed bonds, or partial or total repudia-
ton, the Republican party would be thrashed
out of existence. In any attempt to
rival the Democratic party in cheating
voters, pretending to be for honesty in
ono district and for knayery in another,
for hard money in Eastern and for soft money
in Western States, the Republican party would
be not only thrashed out Of existence but for
ever disgraced. Its voters are not Of the sort
to be fooled by the shallow tricks which

Democrats
At the moment when Chief Moses is
bargaining for a promised land within
the big bend of the Columbia, the
dreadful rumor is borne across the con-
tinent that General Miles and an ex-
cursion party have been treacherously at
tackled and massacred by the Bannacks in the
Yellowstone Park. 1t is reported, or rather 1t Is
reported to have been reported, at Keogh
that twenty-seven of the party were
killed. The rumOr has not been con-
firmed and may prove to be some crazy
Indians tale. Aside from the reOpening OF
hostilites with the Bannacks, which q
plot of this kind would render unaVOid-
able, General Miles is one of our plucklest
soldiers. Next to General Crook, who has
grown gray in service on the Plains and In
the Wilderness, he is our best Indian fighter.
The Berlin Congress should have given
Epirus, Thessaly and Crete to Greece. 1t
would thus have served to unite scattered
race and given the Hellenic people broad
basis for National development. But the Con-
gress assumed that Turkey would resist this
concession to weaker power, and as there
was no great nation to uphold the Hellenic
cause, the treaty makers merely awarded Greece
a small strip of land on her northern frontier
The Congress made this transfer in pro-
tocOl but distrusting Turkey, it declared IN
the treaty that If the "agreement" were not
carried out the Powers would offer their
"goOd services to the two peoples Ottoman
and Greek. When the Greeks proposed to annex
the territory in question, the Porte responded
by circular to the European Powers, showing
that the Greek claim was preposterOus. The
Greeks have answered by proposing to
invoke the promised mediation. but they have
likewise put their army on war footing. with
force and diplomacy thus combined they may
win. But Europe longs for repOse. and unless
the Helenes prove extremely restless, II Is
likely to intervene very tardily. 1t knows
that they are not equal siugle-handed for
Turkey, and 50 will not apprehend prolonged
conflict from their efforts.

It is evident from the Maine returns that a much
larger percentage Of the Democratic than Of the Re
publican vote was absorbed by the Greenbackers.
This result may be looked for generally, and in
many sections which have been controlled by DEM
ocratic majortIes there viii be fair prospect OF
gaining Republican representatives. In the
lid New-Jersey District. for example, this
Democratic zeal for soft money together with the
under-tow of hostility TO the Honorable Miles
Ross. will be- likely 10 make things unpleas-
ant for that foxy statesman in November.
Mr. Washington Hope of Shrewsbury, the Green
back candidate. is a gentleman who has the ad-
vantage of some pretensiOns TO a character,
and those Democrats who tried TO inject vigorous
Greenback doctrine into Mr. ROsss alleged declara-
ton of principles at Mr. Rosss TiotOus convention,
and were heavily sat down upon by Mr. Ross
unciyil engineers. will find little difficulty
IN persuading themselves and their kind
TO help along the canvass of Mr.. Hope.
The Republicans have behaved wisely in nominat-
ing so widely known, elean-handed, and so popu-
lar q man as the Hon. Amos Clark, jr. Mr.. Clark
has served the State with perfect honesty and rare
efficiency in many capacities, notably IN the State
Senate and National Congress, and no man In his
district can hold the Republican vote more steady
which is n matter of considerable moment when

sistency it will not now DO advisable for them to
recall all tho endearing opithets which they have
applied to General Butler or to take an inventory
of all the shames and crimes with which they have
charged him under oath or affirmation during the
past sixteen years These would be unpleasant
things for the allies of the Solid South to remember
when they are about selecting the General as their
gonfaonier.
There is great Democratic rejoicing over the fact
that Maine has probably sent one statesman TO
Congress who holds that because q man has never
been able to make living for himself he therefore
ought to be intrusted with the investment Of the
savings of his thrifty neighbors.

The Widow has been asked. Inc MaSsa-
chusetts Greenback party has stretched out
its arms and embraced her with transports OF
frenzy and gush. Not only embraced her but
the baby as well for the Chairman Of the
Convention tenderly remarks, =" We have wooed
q" General Butler, and If he has baby, we
are going to 'legitlmatize the child"
"Legitimatize Is @ hard word, but If it re-
fers to the victualng of the rag baby with
soft food, the Widow certainly knows how to
handle a spoon. The platform on which
she is to rock the cradle is so tiex-
ible and yielding that she is liable
to put her foot through it if she
brings it down hard in mounting it.
The plank, for instance, in which the repeal
of the Resumption Act Is demanded, has the
consistency of June butter. The Widow will
find her best foOthold on the newspaper clause,
which has evidently been framed for her
special accommodation. The Convention not
only dispenses with commodities of shifting
values like gold and silver as a basis
for money, with Understanding bonds,
taxes on debts and accumulatiOns Of capital,
but it attacks the Associated Press as "A
monopoly whose deadly hand must be torn
from the throat of public intelligence, and
" the telegraph companies must be forced TO
" sell daily news on equal terms to any pa
"per." Keaney suggested the other night
that the compositOrs and the reporters
should "pOOl their issues and run the news
"papers." His friends in Massachusetts, go a
step further and demand the collection and
distribution of news by the telegraph opera
tors on a cooperative plan. 'ris mad world,

as the Butler movement in the noble old Com

Allan Campbell, Commissioner of Public
Works. has not taken sufficient interest in
municipal politics to please John Kelly. He has
found plenty to do in his department and has
not taken politicians reporters into his conf
dence and gossipped with them about the Sc
crets of political trade. HIS plain talk with our
reporter, however, shows that be has not been
silent from having nothing to say. If our
readers will turn to the report of that
conversation, on another page, they Will
find much good sense compressed IN the
narrow compass of half a column. Mr..
Canpbellis friendly with the old man." and,
accordingly, he sees some ground for the
charges against the County Clerk, Register
and Sheriff; but there can be no doubt that

tuition of salaries for fees, or for some
material modification of the present sys-
tenn in two, at least, of those Offices
He has no reason to love an Alderman, and he
evidently doesn't; but the portrait of the Mu-
nicipal Father which he draws is not a carica-
ture. When he declares that the Board is
controlled by ignorant men, who in great
measure are, or have been, liquor sellers or
corner groggery-keepers, and that it is actually
considered disgrace by decent citizens to be
called an Alderman, lie says what nobody
can DENY.
