BLAINE SENTENCED TO BAHIsHMEHT.
[From the Imperial STANDARD, Washington, Octo.
/ ber !, 1882.
An official telegram published else
where in this issue brings intelligence
of the tiial and conviction by Military
Commission of James G.. Blame, of
Maine, and the sentence OF banlshment
passed by the Commission will in oil
probability be approved by bis lmpe-
rial Majesty. We think the Commission
erred in It's decision--not as to the
guilt, but as TO the punishment Of the
offender The time has passed for
measures Of mercy. Justice demands
something more. IL demands stern
retribution for such offences as this
man Blaine has committed, and the
punishment awarded should have been
death. Let there be no triling with
traitors When twenty 80 ocalled
Union Leaguers were shot in Cincin-
cinnati it should have been a warning
to rebels that the policy Of the Imperial
Government was not TO regard sedi-
tion as child's play. OF what use is
banishment if such men as John Sher-
man, James G. Blaine and Rutherford
b. Hayes can concoct their plots and
plans against the safety of the Empire
on tho Canadian side of the border
and send their emissaries to spread
disloyalty in every part of the coun-
tryY We are not apologists for the
course thus far pursued by the lmpe.
rial Government. We have been and
are now its advocates. We have, and
must continue to have, strong gov.
ernment, aud vaolllation or timidlty,
be they in what quarter they may,
must neither be condoned nor tolerated.
The lessons of the past must not be
forgotten,
