things when bUmptious Freshman has his

an arrogant Sophomore suffers IN turn from
an uprising of the oppressed. Indeed lively
game of fsticuffs does far more good than
harm. But it is well to draw the line at fire.

Our Candidate.

The denomination of Mayor Butler des-
pite his expressed desire not to serve another
term, is but a fitting recognition Of the great
and positive merits of his administration.

given to the finances of the city has satisfied
our property-holders that its continuance will
be for the good of all concerned. Now let us

1t is evident that he will not be permitted to

ELSEWHERE we present the Hon. Eugene
Hale's speech on the Louisiana question de-
livered in the House last week. 1t should be
read by all our readers as forcible yet calm
and unimpassioned view of the situation.
Mr.. Hale's words will have much weight, for
be has been hopeful that the southern policy
of the President would result in good, and
he considers it from the standpoint of a
friend, disappointed it is true but 10th to give
up his faith. His arragnment of the Louisia-

tits this unreasoning impatience which
gives the greenbackers their chance. They
promise the people all fine and glorious things
if they will only revive war measures in time
efpeace. And many are led away after
strange financial gods because they cannot
wait. 1t is too bad that when we are SO near
the end of our weary waiting that an inter-
ruption should come. For, should the meas
ures sought for by these new financial oracles
be tried, the time of permanent and healthful
prosperity will be long postponed. 1t seems
impossible that they can succeed; but when

We have at last discovered what the
menaced British interest in the East is. 1t
is the interest on the Turkish bonds held by
Englshmen. England thinks it very strange
that Europe does not fly to arms and help
her collect that interest from the Bu,garians.
True the Bulgarians had nothing to do with
contracting the debt and received no benefit
from the expenditure of the money bor-
rowed. That money was used to buy arms
to shoot Bulgarians. But then England has
got to be paid, else Europe will be ruined by
the ambition of Russia.

be believed or disbeleved according to the
sympathy of the hearer. Gen. Grant has
added nothing new to the controversy in his

unaware that the dispute about the treaties
has already been settled by the publication of
the record, the Senate removing the obliga-

CERTAINLY James Barron, the murdered
cashier of the Dexter Bank, has won by his

this is probable, Mr.. Barron by death has es-

THE report that President Hayes will ap-
prove the silver bill may be at once dismissed
as false. There is not the slightest reason to
believe that he will withhold veto. The
declaration in his message leaves no room for
doubt. There is a growing belief that the
veto will be sustained by the Senate, chiefly
because of the Objectionable Mcdonald

vote of 81 to 36. This, however, is a slender
