 The Prescott Miner changed the politics of an enthusiastic DayIs man of this place in the twinkling of an eye He wrote a letter to that journal as full of hope for Davis as an egg is full of meat. It ws printed, but instead of an euIogy on Davis, 1t laudcd the virtues of WoOlsey. This was a go, and no mistake-another evidence that the best laid schemes O mice and men gang aft a-gley. /" We knew the writer, saw the point, and accused him of apostacy. He bristled, and swOre he could lick any man with the temerity to rliik, much less to charge, that he'd go back on Davis We appreciated the danger, and would have hedged had We not looked into the benevolent face and read his aversion to shedding human blood, and thus assured, We mildly asked did you not write a political letter to the Miner and sign il ..Globe?a He acknowledged the corn, when We pulled the letter 1T

 "The proposition pending at Sac ramento to cripple independent jour nalism in California meaus this, and nothing less Heretofore, if the pub ilsher of newspaper vas charged with committing 8 libel, a jury sat upon the case, and they were per mitted to say whether a libel. had been committed or not.

NUMBER 35

erlng OF secret dispatches, Mr.. Tilden
would have been immeasurablv the
strongest Democratic candidate: as
matters stand, he is sheer impossi-
bility. Not even Denmark Pelton
nor Moses Marble will waste time
IN seeking for him another nomina-
ton, and the keen sunlight of fur
ther publicity. But this Is not all,
ms exposure strips off mask be-
hlnd which there has been partial
y successful attempt to hide the real
nature of an entire party.
Mr. Tilden was the one and onlv
Democrat who had ever pretended to
anything in the way of reform. His
nomination enabled his party to wear
the mask of reform. And his expo.
sure strips off that mask and shows
the-hideous rottenness Of the party
witch sought success by fraud. Mr..
Iilden was the one in whose behalf
the cry of 'fraudn in the last cleo
ton could have been effective. Now
chat gun is more deadly at the breech
than at the muZzle, and the speaker
or writer who uses it runs the risk
OF being kicked to death. Without
entire fidelity, Mr.. Tilden had rep
resented to men like Wells, Goodwin,
BIgelOW, Adams, and thousands of
Others in the Eastern States, the hard
money traditions of the ancient De-
mocracy. They had voted with it
only because they trusted that Mr..
Tilden would control it. One must
profoundly pity these men, as they
look upon the wreck of their idol,
ard realize that they tried to turn
over the Government to set of re-
pudiators, in their blind reliance up
on cipher-using negotiator in votes.
Democracy will feel the need of
mask, and the mask of "Tilden and
Reform" has become known alto
gether too well. Open reputation,
with Thurman or Hendricks, would
be courtlng defeat. What new dis.
gulse and what new pretext will be
found? Certain it is that Democrats
who have sense realize that their
party has lost its prestige and
wrecked its hopes again, and that it
must begin once more, with only
eighteen months remaining, to pre-
pare for struggle in which at pres
ent, the Republican party bids fair
to have the advantage.-New York
Tribune.
