According to the Democratic newspapers it is
utterly impossible for the Republicans to carry
single state by an honest majority. Every Repub-
lcan victory is the result of fraud every Republl-
can candidate will be elected by resort to bull
dozlng. There is plot and conspiracy everywhere.

One Democrat nc least manages to say what he
means on the tariff question, and that is Mr.. DORIS
heimer. He always gets into passion on that sub
iect AS he did IN the National Democratic Convcn-
ton IN 1876, when he declared that all Custom
House taxation should be only for revenue" He
has not changed his mind. probably from the DIS
advantage of not having beard the subject dis
cussed in his native place." as General Hancock
did He declared distinctly in Phiaieiph on
Tuesday night that he was " the one straight Dem

tion Perhaps the managers of the Philadelphia
meeting had forgotten Mr.. Dorshemers tariff re-
cord when they invited him TO speak in that city

ory by himself. And now will General Hancock
give us another letter declaring whether he is for
an ant-protcctive tariff ike Mr. Dorsheimer or for
that kind which this Intelligent candidate heard

The Australian mails which were forwarded at the
instance of Postmaster James and by the enterprise
of Mr. Sidney Dillon, OF the Union Pacific Railroad,
in n special tram from San Francisco. arrived by
the Arizona in Ireland last evening and
have by this time been distributed
throughout Great Britain. As the mails
left Sydney September ., the entire journey has
been made in forty-ono days. being four days less
than the average British time via the Suez Canal.
Had there not been an unavoidable delay
of 10 hours here, in waiting for
the steamer. and had she not been
22 hours 20 minutes slower than her best time in
crossing the Atlantic the mails would have been
conveyed from Australia in less than forty days.
As il is there is to feel proud OF the enter
prise which has been display ed by all who were
gagged in this effort to show the superiority of the
transcontlnenta route.

There was dramatic episode IN the
Surrogates Court yesterday. wife seeking
letters of administration upon the large
estate of her husband, who disappeared
several years ago, was confronted III tne

husband. His brother and sister, who were
present, swore to his identity, and he showed

him in the face and, under oath, said III a

Both parties are naturally exercising abund-
ant caution respecting the eligibility OF thelr
candidates for electors In Pennsylvania, ana
in other States, members of the Legislature
have withdrawn from the electoral tickets,
not because any one believed that scat Ill
State Legislature was d" an office OF trust or
"proft under the United States" but SIMPLY
to make it impossible that the Democrats III
Congress should have the slightest preteXt
for Directing to the eligibility of any elector,
even when the claim might be obviously
false and intended simply for delay. The
Democrats also have shown abundant caution,
one of the New-York County officers having
withdrawn from their electoral ticket. Inc
only candidate on the Republican electoral
ticket in this State holding an Office OF any
kind. who has net withdrawn, Is Assembly
man Bradley. 1t might be well to follow these
preccdents in his case also, not because 1t is
necessary, but because the withdrawal can do
neither the Republican party nor Mr.. Bradley
any harm, and NAV do some good III the
way we have suggested.

The Thursby Concert,

A large audience greeted the Thursby concel t
company at the Opera House last evening. 1t
was we'll cultured and appreciative audience,
and notwithstanding the announcement of Mr..
Strakosch of the sudden illness of NJ. Adamow-
ski, the violinist of the company, appeared to
enioy the concert fully. Miss Amy Fay opened
the entertainment with Mendelssohn's Fantasia
in sharp minor. She is pianiste of culture.
and gives the sentiment of the music good ex-
preston. Yet there is lack of force or self
confidence in her touch that detracted some
what from the beauty of the selection. The
tenor solo of MIR. Branson, Come into the gar
forth an encore, to which MIR. B. responded
with '.Across the far blue hills, Marie."
He has voice of good range and fair volume,
but not remarkable. The polonaise from
"Miguon'' by Miss Thursby was rapturously
received. A pleasing presence, and voice of
rare purity of quality, with not even the sug-
gestion of false note in either upper or lower
register, she at once won warm place IN the
hearts of her audience. She sang without
effurt, the clear, bird. like notes pouring forth
in one long-continued, melodious strain. She
was complimenued with q hearty encore, to
which she responded with a charming Irish
ballad. Signor Ferranti followed with the
Invitation to Dance" selection in which his
capital faculty as q buffo artist had ample
SCOPE. All the subsequent numbers were ad-
mirably rendered, both Miss Thursby and Signor
Ferranti being favored with recalls. Miss Fay 3
Spinning Song was we'll received, and show
ed to good advantage the magnificent tone of
the Weber grand in use for the occasion.
We are glad to be able to announce that the
company will give one more concert here on
Friday evening next, at which there will be an
entire change of programme. The pleasure
which last nights audience derived will be suf-
ficient to warrant q crowded house.

TIE LATE HORACE THOMPSON.

Resolutions of Respect and Coincidence,
At meeting OF the board of directors Of
the st. Paul g. Sioux City railroad company,
among other business transacted was the
adoption of the following resolutions:
WHEREAS, 1t has pleased Divine Providence
t. remove by death our esteemed friend and
fellow director, Horace Thompson; therefore
HesolUed, That in the decease of Horace
Thompson this board has lost one of its most
valuable and efficient members, one who by
his wise counsel, his eminent financial skill and
ability, and his unremitting devotion has been
greatly instrumental in enabling this company
to overcome the manifold difficulties and en-
barrassments through which it has struggled
from its first organization, and to place 1t in its
present prosperous condition.
Resotred That in all the qualities requisite
to form good and useful citizen in all the re-
lations of life the late Horace Thompson shone
pre-eminent, and his loss may we'll be regarded
as a calamity, not only to this company, but to
the city of St. Paul and to the State at large.
Resolved, That these resolutions be entered
at length on the minutes of the board, that
they be published in the daily papers of the
city, and copy thereof be transmitted by the
secretary to the widow of the deceased, with
an expression of the deep and respectful SYM
patty felt by this board with the family of the
iamented deceased in their distressing bereave-

STAR SERVICE.
SENATE COMMITTEE ACTION.


WASHINGTON. March 1.-The Senate commit
lee on appropriations held two meetings to-day,
before and after the session of the Senate,
which were devoted to the subject of the star
mail service deficiency. This committee ad-
jourhed until Wednesday without having
reached /. vote on the pending House bills or
any of the proposed amendments, but express
sioas of opinion to-day were such as to indicate
strong possibility that the committee will
advise the Senate to increase the amount
granted by the House to sum
sufficient to continue the mail
service under existing contracts upon all star
routes throughout the remainder of the current
fiscal year. 1t ia intimated by members of the
committee that the recommendation will be &C
companied with resolution of censure upon
the department for its alleged extravaganza ex-
penditure of last years appropriation. Post
muster General Key and Assistant Postmaster
General Brady have informed the committee
that according to their latest estimates, includ-
ing an estimate of $780, 900 for fines and de-
auctions from contractors, deficiency appro-
priation of $l,500,00O will be suffi-
cient to meet the requirement, of the
for increase although not nearly So much as
they think the repeal of the developement of
the western country will demand. They have
also informed the committee that ont of the
amount granted by the House bill, 81, 100000,
not less than 5000, 100 would have to be given to
contractors, as one months extra pay without
service, this being the penalty prescribed by
law against the government in every case of
abrpgation of 4 mail contract, whereas an ap-
preparation of Sl,7O0, 900 would enable the de-
partnlent to maintain all existing service.

chicago, March 1.-Cables lower on Califor-

closing figures of Saturday. Tho principal
feature, like the previous four days, has been
the liberal transfer of the options. The deal
ing was large. and the active traders seemed
satisfied with Is of q cent into April. Ills
ran smoothly until II o'clock, when rumors OF
the small deliveries of wheat made the trade
nervous, and bidding for cash or March was
liberal and lively, running the price of March
up to $l.255s and April $l.26A. Considerable
bad feeling was manifested. The boys are
kiskng like steers. When you see regular No.

it cannot be placed in store can you wonder
there is heap of damnation in store for some
body, and our crowd will press the Wall street
gang if there is ever an opening. The small

clined on reports of immense deliveries. Ru-
mors are that the grand manipulation is order

undertone is surely very strong in this pro-
duct. The closing is firm and looks higher in
