THE time will come when justice will
be done Benedict Arnold. His treason
cannot be justified but there are many
things which go to extenuate it. If Ben
edict Arnold the traitor had not been
Benedict Arnold the patriot, the indie
pendence of the United States would not
date from July 4, 1776. No other man
who took part in the revolution did as
much to bring success TO the American
armies. The battle of Saratoga was the
decisive one of the war. The surrender
of Burgoyne secured the independence
of the colonies. The subsequent deeds
were but an incident to their great
achievement. Burgoyne would be the
victor if Arnold was not in the field. The
s'Ney of the Revolution" is title earned
by the man known as the "traitor. =
America does Arnold gratitude and honor
instead of ignoring and reproach.

AN Astrologer named Samael, a name
that smacks of mystic science, has cast
the horoscope of Garfield and Hancock
and finds that the "starry heavens" are
republican. 1t is really too bad to trans
fer the fight from the doubtful states of
New York and Indiana to the Skies
What has Venus and Mars or any other
planets to do with the terrestrial matters
of our own earth2 Why should this fell
low with the Hebrew or Egyptian name,
interfere with the hard bargain which
Conkling is driving with the republican

his lucubrations to himself and not
interfere with torch light professions and

Chicago convention were not realized
and it is just possible, Garfield may
continue to live in doubt and fear.

THE SOUTHERN BROTHER.

The southern republican is the most
timid man born of woman. He loves to
be prosecuted so that he may give forth
the voice of lamentation. He Is the mas
culine Niobe of politics, the tear believed
son of sorrow. He is weak but his weak
ness does not give him protection. He
is numerous, but his numbers does not
give him courage to resist. He g sanity
but his sanatity does not turn aside OPP
preston. He has sincere, political CON
victions and loves to assemble and make
up states, but has no mortal attribute
aside from passive resistance. He does
not own shot gun or red shirt. He
cannot ride horse in the dark. One
red shirt will cause stampede among a
million of them. The southern republi-
can always wears white or conventional
black. Hishairis not unkempt and long
He is striving to lead in the millennium;
he is worker in the vine yard of the
lord. He never lies and has so cultivated
the art of yielding that it has become o
second nature to him, and then he is
advertised so very extensively. He is
an inspiration to patriots throughout the
north. When the tale is told how one
red shirt made one thousand of the poor
downtrodden faint hearted republicans
bite the dust, it makes the policy of the
party virtue which defies its supporters.
Then tho north marches on in solid
phalanx to the polls and elects northern
republicans. The sanguinary red shirt
bides his time and at the next general
election enjoys another holocaust. The
southern republican is like truth, crush.
ed to the earth he will rise again, and
again be killed for the good of the north
ern Office seekers.
The red shirted Individual never dies.
Neither does the southern republican.
Their conditions never change either,
absolutely or relatively; the one lives to
Cypress, the other to suffer. But how
strange the devotion Of the prosecuted
man to his principles. In his own state
he has no hope of redress; from the gen
eral government no aid, nothing but pas.
sive sympathy. A solid south crushing
him; a solid north giving the widest pos
sible publicity to his sufferings and do
ing nothing to alleviate them. His pa
tience is rivaled only by his cowardice,
his faith is without parallel. Surely,
the north should be cemented by a con
temptation of this southern brother who
has fallen among thieves.

UNpER the headings, "Diabolical Do
ings," Opening Of the Political Cam
paign III Northern Mississippi with Shot
guns" the Inter Ocean describes quar-
rel between a negro in procession of
democrats aud the candidate for sheriff
in greenbaok procession. The demo-
cratic niger was killed, and his friends
in the same quarrel killed his murderer.
But the heading leads 10 the belief that
it was slaughter of innocent republic
cans by bloodthirsty democrats. These
headings in republicans sheets are very
deceptive. For instance, in referring to
Gen. Walkers opinion that fair census
was had in the south, the heading read
in large caps. Census Frauds in the
South"

THERE Is department of the Wiscon-
sin Journal edited by Prof. Salisbury
which is partisan enough to suit the col
umns of the N. Y. Tribune. 1t purports
to give q synopsis of the news for the
month, but the whole is so colored by
partisan bias that the Journal might be
used by the republican executive COM
mittee and sent out as campaign docu-
ment. No democrat can read these notes
without a feeling of Indignation, nor
without believing that the Journal is be-
ing prostituted to party service. If the
Journal is what it pretends, an educa-
tional magazine, then questions on which
parties are divided should not be dis
cussed on a partisan basis. Teachers
whose political opinions do not coincide
with those of the Journal and who be-
lieve that educational publications should
be neutral in such matters, should look
elsewhere for an educational periodical.

THE Milwaukee Sentinel is usually q
very fair political opponent. But latter
ly it has allowed its enthusiasm for Gar
field TO run away with its Judgment
To charge that the killing of negro in
democratic procession by greenback
candidate, was in pursuance of an ar
rangement to terrify the negroes and
prevent their coming to the polls, is a
piece of political balderdash suited to
the editorial columns of the New York
Tribune. Those who will believe any
such exposition may be relied upon to
vote the republican licked without any
faith-strengthening tonic. The ignorant
and prejudiced are in no need of an
organ. They are well supplied.

A NEW danger threatens the republican
party in Maine. The republican party
OF that state has always been temper
ance party and has always had a prohibi-
ton plank in its state platform. TEN
perance laws were enacted and for time
enforced. Latterly republican officials
refuse to enforce the laws while the party
Is committed to prohibition measures.
This has caused dissatisfaction among the
more extreme temperance men and they
propose to withdraw from the party and
put up ticket of their own, the avowed
purpose being to defeat the republican
candidates.

OF all the mean despicable papers i'll
the world the \. Y. Tribune is the worst.
Of late years it has degenerated in every
thing. Its editorials are as unseholarly
and meanly partisan as can be found in
some siekly weekly whose zeal for the
party is stronger than its judgment. No
fair minded man can read the sheet with
out being an indignation meeting. 1t
adopts the smallest, meanest most dis
reputable means to advance Garfield s
chances and break down Hancock. 1t
would be creditable to the good sense of
the American people if the Tribune
would collapse for lack of patronage.
