CARPENTER.

THE Chronicle says that democrats
should not vote for Carpenter unless for
the purpose of defeating some bitter re-
publican partisan. That is exactly the
ground we take. Republicans invariably
select man for public position who is
more strongly recommended by partisan
ship than by craftsmanship. Reyes is
urged by his partisans solely because
he has been a successful organizer and
because he has done good work for the
party. Republicans can rely upon
him to support every measure de-
signed to enchance the success Of the
party even at the sacrifice Of national in
tegrity. Reyes may not be nominated,
but he viii certainly be the strongest man
in the republican caucus. Howe stands
next and because he ''has lived after the
straitest sect" of his party,-a repubi-
can. With those two men the most
prominent in the republican caucus, has
not the condition which the Chronicle
thinks sufficient to justify democratic
support of Carpenter already arisen! Is
it not clearly the duty Of democrats to
defeat the extreme wing of the republ-
can party by caiding in the election OF a
man not SO Objectionable from a partisan
standpoint and in every respect the
superior of his rivals? Carpenter is a re-
publican but he stands on record as be-
ing opposed to those measures of his
party which have brought disgrace upon
the country. He was no friend Of carpet
bag rule in the south. He was pro-
nounced in his opposition to the infamy
which elevated defeated candidate to
the presidency. The election of Carpen-
ter may not be democratic success, but
it is victory over the worst elements OF
the republican party. Reyes and Howe
are partisans of the Blaine school, whose
principles are to foster sectional dissen-
sions and keep the country in state Of
constant ferment through the bitterness
Of factional strife. The defeat Of such
men is blessing to the country, and it
is no objection that this can only be Sc
cured through the assistance of well dis
posed republicans. The empty compli-
ment of extending the democratic nom
ination to some prominent democrat may
well be dispensed with when in iew
thereof the defeat OF unprineipled parti-
sans may be secured.

O'LEARY won the match between him
self and Campana last week without
much trouble. He stopped at 1910 Sat
urday evening, so that he did not com
plete his six days. He walked 400 miles.
The total time he has been engaged il
walking is three days, eighteen hours and
forty one minutes. Campana walked 1853
miles and had taken to do SO, three days
twenty two hours and thirteen minutes.
The total receipts were $40, 900. OF this
amount Campana gets $500 and the re-
mainder, after paying all expenses goes
to O'Leary. O'Leary stated at the close
of the match that he regretted he was
not in better condition during the trial.
He offered to walk $40 miles in six days
on bet of $500, half the gate money to
90 to charitable institutions. Campana
charged his trainers with paralyzing him
the first few days and stated that if he
had Aaron as trainer he would win by at
least 80 miles. II is said to haye been a
pitiful sight to see the old man drag HIM
self along the track, being completely
broken up. But he has indomitable
pluck and continued to walk after o.
Leary left the track.

REPUBLICANS quite generally rejoice at
the appointment of our renowned can
gus on the investigating committee, and
assert that ne has rare qualifications for
the position. We believe il. ANGUS
IS somewhat like the mans dog, whom
the owner insisted must be 4 good coon
dog, because he wasn't worth a d-n for
anything else. Yes "Angus" must now
have struck the tide which Shakespeare
says is in the affairs of men. angus
will wiggle himself into fame, as Pick
wick did when he discovered the stone
with the ancient engraving. We always
believed that Angus was born great
and he will soon strengthen that belief
with confirmation strong as proof of
holy writ" All the old man wanted was
chance, and now it has presented itself.
lie will now ''bestride this narrow world
like colossus and sit down on the
south, and woe to those who are behind
the hight OF hls countenance. Angus"
Is encased In armor and now great things
will be done "whereat all hell will won-
der.

i BILL is about to be introduced di-
rectly after congress assemblies at the
termination Of its present recess. to coin
a silver dollar of 480 grains and to call
in all the trade and standard silver dol
lars and have them recoined into the new
dollar. This is bill which it is earnest
" hoped will receive the support OF
every member of each house. The alb
surdity Of having as e standard a gold
dollar and a silver, differing in value 10
cents, should be speedily removed.
With an increase III tbs amount Of silver
the coin will not be so much enlarged as
10 make it announcement. The present
discrepancy viii be removed and there
viii then be no valid objection to accept
ing silver on equal terms with gold. 4
better measure, perhaps. would be 10
place limit on the coming OF silver and
leave the weight where it is at present.
But then there would be the perpetual
apprehension that free coinage would be
allowed. Let the standard dollar be
made $50 grains.

\ GREAT deal is said by dailies pub
lished in large cities about the foolish
policy Of country newspapers in not re-
quiring payment in advance. The cir
culation of metropolitan papers is such
as to enable them to be independent.
Subscribers to local papers are unduly
sensitive and seem to think that if their
countenance is withdrawn from the paper
they patronize it can not exist and they
consequently take otfense unless handled
with gloves. Projectors of country
papers, at least can stop sending their
papers to all subscribers who do not pay
at the end of the subscription year.
And something more, they can take
every means which the law allows to col
lect from delinquent subscribers. Ii is
their duty 10 DO this, their duty to them
selves and to the profession. The man
who Will deliberately take a paper with
out intending to pay for it IS deserving
of no consideration and should be in
stantly forced through legal means to
pay every cent he owes. We are glad to
notice a determination on the part Of
editors to shut down ON dead heads. It
is our only salvation.

"WHAT shall We DO to be electcd?" IS
the question which disturbs aspirants for
senatorial honors in this state. There is
no scarcity OF candidates and almost
every republican newspaper and some
democratic, strongly urge the claims Of
some favorite candidate. Reyes seems
to have a majority of the newspapers in
his favor, that is of those which have
committed themselves to any candidate.
But this by no means indicates that he
will not receive enough votes in the re
publican caucus to nominate him. In
deed from present appearances itappears
that none of those prominently mentioned
viii receive the nomination and the pros
pect Of bolt IS daily growing more
probable. There seems to be no ''bad
blood between the partisans of Howe
and Of keyes and it is possible that these
may unite on one of the two. The cues
ton will be then, whether the united
strength of these two candidates VIII be
sufficient to elect.

Hon. Jos. RANKIN gives it as his opin-
ion that the result of the first ballot III
the republican caucus will be about as
folIws: Reyes, 81; Carpenter, 20; Howe
is; Rublee, G; Lewis 3; Sawyer, 1. He
thinks that Howe's vote viii increase in
subsequent ballots and Carpenters de-
crease, and that if Reyes is not nomina-
ted at the second meeting Of the caucus
he will be dropped. 1Ir. Rankin is de-
cidodly opposed to the democrats, sup
porting any person as candidate who
has received votes at the republican eau
Gus. He favors a straight party nomin-
alton by the democratic caucus, and in
sists that it is the duty Of democratic
members to unanimously support their
caucus nominee.

SOME of the republican papers think
that the Blaine committee viii prove a
dismal failure They say that Blaine is
working only for his own aggrandize-
ment and is willing 70 sacrifice the re
publican party to secure his own success.
It would be a wise course for the repub-
lioan party to 'unload" Blaine at the
earliest opportunity.

THE admiration which O'Leary and
Nine. anderson attract for their feats
and the crowds which daily congregate
to witness these prodigies Of endurance
and muscle, goes to prove that that which
is most admired by man Is physical de-
velopment. No orator, famous for elo-
quenoo could secure 50 large an audience
nor awaken as much enthusiasm. Nine.
Auderson's splendid physique attracts
universal attention, and the fair, square
heel and toe walk CT OLeary has been
deemed of sufficient Importance to re-
ceiye editorial notice from every promi-
nent paper of New York. 1t seems
strange that woman should desire to
excel in that which her sex disclaims,-
physical power. Their weakness has
been their shield, and somehow we al q.
ways associate virago with Amazon.
Gentleness and dependence have by the
course of time become attributes of the
weaker sex, and any manifestation of
bodily strength IS an approach to mas
culinity which few view with pleasure.

was among his own men. His body
