The Work Of an Editor.

The London Times, in Hsobituary no.
tice of the late Mr.. Delane, thus speaks
OF the character of the work Of an edi-
tor of a daily newspaper: The work Of
an editor cs4n only be appreciated by
those who have had the fortune to have
had some little experience of it, The

make decisions on which not only
the approval Of the British public, but
great events, and even great causes, may

of a long days work, a day OF inter-

Tennessee IL 1t could convince the country that
it would not favor wantOn and reckless aD-
preparations for Southern improvements. IL
would sacrifice not only Virginia but other
Southern States if it should convince the coun-
try of its hostility to any form OF reputation.
II would have not one chance in fifty thousand
OF success In Indiana, or In any other Western
State, If it should convince the people that IL
was opposed to deprecated dollars, of silver or
paper The reason is that the voters who want
Southern jobs, reputation and soft money
are nearly all Democrats, and many OF them
are exceedingly in earnest. They would not
hesitate to kill the party instantly and utterly,
if they thought it would pursue the policy set
forth in its platform. They cling to the party
because they believe that its platform is framed
with intent to deceive, and other voters have
the same opinion.
The Democratic party has made another at
tempt to cheat the country. That is the pith
of the matter. lis followers want exactly the
things which the party prpfesses to oppose, ana
their firm belief that their own platform lies Is
not only the cause of their support; it makes
the party quite unable to convince voters that
It's platform tells the truth. If the party were
not lying in it's platform, Landers would not be
its candidate in Indiana, nor would it act in ALI
ance with the Greenback men in Maine. Il the
party were not lying in its platform, Malone
and his followers would not support General
Hancock in Virginia. The conviction that its
prctences are false will save Ii the votes OF re-
pudiators and communists. But 1t will cost the
party every Northern State, and another defeat.

NOTHING TO BE GAINED BY A CHANGE.
Mr. Schurz often hits the nail on the head in
political addresses. In fact, it is one secret of
his power in political discussion that he con-
centrates his efforts upon the vital point OF con-
troversy This point in the present campaign
seems, in his opinion, to be this: That the con-
sentative, conscientious, and independent
voters are not now satisfied that the Demo
cratic party can be trusted, or that higher
degree of prosperity or good government could
be secured by change of parties in power.
The Republican party has given the country
remarkable prosperity in commerce and in
dustry, and un wonted purify In administration.
change is not to be desired, unless il would
be for the better. But Democratic history,
Democratic behavior, the constituent elements

to show that the success of that party would in

railroad commission by President Diaz ought
to lead to good results, provided it acts

Sultan is shrewdly waiting to see how
they are going to enforce the claim

Austria and Germany begin to show signs of
indifference to the Greek claim, limiting that
all the engagements should be carried into

ACKNOWLEDGMENT of Turkey, but the other
Powers are too jealous to make her their
agent. England, which Is mainly responsible
for the Berlin Treaty. might be expected
to he jealous for its fulflment, but BeaCons-

is not disposed to engage in enforcing what

the question arises, Who will enforce it in
whole or in part
