then suffering from her recent severe affection

Princess children died in 1873, in conse-
quence of a fall, and another, recently, of

that the Princess herself contracted the afro.
cious disease which has just resulted in her
death, in spite Of the best surgical skill. The

THE MODERN STATESMAN.

The modern statesman, so-dubbed, as rep
resented in james G.. Blaine and men of that
type, is upon examination strange anomaly
of the parlizan demagogue, fanatic and blath-
erskle--a gathering together of all the direct
oppusites of the characteristics Of genuine
craftsmanship. BY the selfish political parades
of such men the Congress of the nation is
converted from its legitimate purpose TO pro-
tect the interests of the people into a patent
process of turning out political capital for
their own benefit. There is no sensible man
who can conclude after the recent gyrations
position to the amendments for an open in
vestigaton to his original resolution, and af-
ter his purposed neglect 10 make his iuvestga-
ton applicable to all parts, but instead only
applicable TO sections hateful TO himself that it
was aught else than shrewd move TO draw
| the attention and admiration of Radical Re-
publicans to himself and 10 fan the fire of Sec
tonal hate which for some time has been the
causeway 10 the power of the Republican par
ty. Blaine looked for his resolution 10 bene-
fit him and his party from the character Of
the debate on the part of the Democratic Sen
ators. But he was disappointed. That such
was his object is shown in his constant effort
through the debate to goad Southern Senators
into bitter sectional contest. Blaine's &C
cusatons and insults were iearessly met, but
always with prudent emphasis. and the words
of his bate were made poiniless by clear logic.
The Republican press is not as usual over
feet of the howl from Blaine.
The resolutions passed, but by Democratic
amendments the investigation is to reach into
Northern as well as Southern States No
harm can result from it, for if there have been
fraud and wrong the law should be vindi-
Gated but it is matter of considerable con-
graduation 10 all sections of the land that the
ovsrweening devotion of Blaine to Blaine and
the bloody shirt was met and laid bare by the
GOODNESS, temperatures and devotion to the
general good ofsuch men as Thurman, Bayard,
White and the Southern Senators. The whole
business of Southern Outrages'' has been q
farce; it originated in the charges of a fraudu-
lent President and was champoined by a.
political fanatic. In his heart the champion
is right glad that there is even a pretext for
such howl as be is INDUCING over violence
and intimidation, &c. 1t serves him well;
but he should remember that every commu-
nifty is disguised with man who is glad of a
disaster because it can be turned into his ad-
vantage. II wrongs there be- let them be
nation as BlaiIe's.

The Washington Capital publishes the fol.
loving to illustrate Blaine's object in kicking
up a row : There is legend of horticulture
10 the East, to the effect that the natives gath
or the fruit Of certain tall trees by pelting
stones at The monkeys which abide in them, ex-
citing the narwinian links to re,aliaie by pelt-
ing the natives with the coveted arboreal pro-
ducts. That is precisely what Blaine is up TO
at this juncture. The true way 10 suppress
him is to lie: him alone. Let him fling stones
sntil he gets tired. The trees, in the present
instance, are very tall and he can never get so
much as sample Of the fruit, unless one Of
the monkeys gets mad and throws it at him.
Moreover, there is no danger to be apprehended
Rom bis dornieks, because none OF them can
reach, or, ifhaply he should get the range,
there Is plenty Of chance to dodge.

The total reduction of officers proposed by the
recognizing army bill amount 10 1913, which
will leave !, 1929, or one to every thirteen en-
listed men, which will still be large proper
of officers.
The bill is a very volumnous one, but
apart from its reduction in the number OF Off
GERS, its provisions made no radical change.
In its preparation the committee had the coun-
sci OF high army officers, and the recommended
tons seem to be judicious. The provision that
the government shall cease the manufacture of
small arms and get its supplies by contract
with private manufacturers is in the interest
Of economy. The government cannot make
arms as good or cheap as it can buy. OF
course there will be an opposition TO the bill
from the class whom it affects. The expert
leaders of the german and society galanis
ION duty at Washington" can exercise n very
strong social influence. The retirement of
such considerable proportion of the staff
will strike blow at the social professions OF
so many people that the influence brought TO
bear against IL will be immense but 10 put
off the day of reform will only make II the
more sweeping when il does come. II may be
pleasant 20 live in elegant ease at the expense
Of tho people, but it is not a just or digniied
position. During the ten years from 1868 to
1878 the appropriations for the army have
amounted to SPOT, ECO, 1915 81 for the ten
years between 1851 TO 1860, inclusive, the APP
preparations Cor the army, which then includ-
ed appropriations for rivers, harbors and for
ii6cations, that are now made separately,
amounted to only Sal, Oil, 05l 10.
