ago he was an avowed Revenue Tariff
man; then he became an indefinite

an incidental but patriotic Protectionist; and
now it is said he is to declare, in substance,
that he has kept all the commandments OF

persons of a speculative turn OF mind can try

must be before they have been revised by the

the tariff question has grown in Importance

We believe the Republicans of this city can
elect the next Mayor, if they take wise ac-
ton. The Democratic party are in
state of strange generalization. Indiana
and OHIO discouraged them, and the frank
admissions of one of their own organs that
general defeat is dangerously near have filled
them with anger and dismay. The factions
have just emerged from so-called union on
local nominations, full of bitterness, and
almost ready, even now, to fly at each
others tbroats. The time is ripe for
master-strOke in our local politics. Let the
Republicans nominate a straight Republican
| for Mayor-such a man as Thomas l.. James
or any man whose name is SYM
Dol of executive ability and personal
purity-and he can be elected. Thousands
of Irving Hall Democrats, disguised with the
tIickery Of which they have been made the
victims iii the name of harmony, would vote
for him. Many of the better class of Tammany
| Democrats will vote for man who would
give us good government and reduced
taxes. Many Democrats wear their allegiance
lightly in local affairs, and would be glad of
the chance to put II real representative OF the
taxpayers, and net of the tax-eaterS, into the
MAYORS CHAIR Such a result of the local
elections would gladden. the heart of
every man who knows that his rent or his
taxes are swollen to pay the salaries of Tam
many Hall sinecurists. The tide is all with
the Republican party, and it is rushing fast.
This can be done; why not do it?

Colonel" II. H. Hadlcy the bogus Republican

making speeches in which he says " this Is the first
time in the history of the country that a man has
been a candidate for President whose personal honor
has been questioned" He is wrong, as usual. Since
1874. when they called Henry Clay gambler and
denounced Theodore Frelingnuyscn as the presi-
dent OF a id Bible society and Id hypo-

honor" of every candidate opposed to them; and
there has not been a campaign in which the slums
have not yomIted forth their low proved rascals TO
deluge Wing and Republican candidates with the
sort of abuse that has been poured out on General
Garfield. while confidence men like this fellow

Democratic newspapers which have not had the
life entirely knocked out of them are growing mill
tary. They talk of desperate struggles. They fore
shadow tremendous battle which is to come of IN
fortnight. They call upon all their friends to arm
for the conflict. They passIonaely suggest daring
and aggressive policy. All this talk amounts to
nothing, and those who indulge in it know that it
amounts 70 nothing. Mere words and wind will not
elect anybody SIMPLE gabble OF this sort Will not
even gracefully cover retreat The great point
for party is 10 get the people upon its side; unless
it can do thar, no amount of military metaphor will
help it. If the Democrats find that whislng keeps
up their courage, let them whstle-there is nothing
in the statutes nor in the Constitution which for
bids the indulgence. But whistlipg isn't voting,
any more than aflidavits are Holsters.

Tributes Of Audiences to Actors.

Fruits, as well as flowers, now figure
among the tributes profered by London
audiences to favorite actresses. To most
of them, this is, no doubt, an agreeable
innovation. A basket of luscious Bartlets
or Oldmixons, if less poetical, is certain
~ much more practical present than
the rarest bunch of camellias or iacque-
minots.
These theatrical offerings vary curious
~ in different parts of the world. In
Spain favorite matador is overwhelmed
with showers of the mems cigars and the
ladies' gloves and fans. On our Western
coast the hardy miner testifes his de-
light In popular actor or actress by
finging gold pieces on the stage.
A still more singlar or much less agree
able sort of compliment was once paid
to Tom Playside in New Orleans. At the
end of much applauded scene, when
"bravos" rent the air and flowers were
falling thick around him, a carpenters
broad chisel sped whizzing from the
'efat" few inches from his head The
offender was speedily discovered and
brought before the indignant actor

Assaut Carving.

When at last the work of carving is
done, the delics5o and difficult duty of
"helping" begins. There can be no
peace Of mind for the man who helps his
family and his occasional guest to any
food, except soup or oysters, both Of
which can be accurately and fairly di-
vided. In the case of chicken he can
never give satisfaction. There is no rule
in this matter, beyond giving the chicken
legs to the boys, which can be followed.
To ask people what part of the chicken
they prefer is simply Madness. Either
everybody tells the truth. and de-
mands the best cut. in which case all but
one will be exasperated by failing to
have their wish gratifed, or everybody
will reply, "Any part" T" It makes no
difference" or words to the same mem
dacious and aggravating effect. OF
course, when the man who says !" It
makes no difference" is helped to any
thing but the breast, he becomes an
enemy of the carver for life, and nothing
can disabuse him Of the impression that
he has been wantonly insulted. It is far
better to boldly help people without
making any pretense of consulting their
wishes. They will then regard the
carver as rude and careless host but
they will acquit him of any intention to
press open insults on his guests. Per-
haps the most difficult person to deal
with is the lady who says she "prefers
leg." In the presence of this trying
person the carver is almost certain to
make mistake. The chances are that
she abhors chicken legs, and expresses
for the sake of politeness an alleged
preference which she confidently expects
to be disregarded. To help such one
to a leg is to abuse her confidence and
earn her undying hatred, On the other
hand, if she is one of those rare women
who really have an abnormal fondness
for legs, she feels herself outraged if
legs are withheld from her, and decides
that the carver is a selfish brute, who
has not sufficient decency to respect a
lady's wishes. We shall never know how
many happy homes have been broken
up, how many friends estranged, and
how much miscellaneous misery has
been suffered merely because the duty

Indians Shopping.

In her book on Manitoba, Miss Fitz
gibbon says: 81 watched some Indians
shopping, and was astonished to see how
invariably they waived aside inferior
goods and chose such materials as mer-
mos at 81. so to So (17s Cd to 10s) a yard.
One of the merchants told me it was
useless to offer them anything but the
best. An Indian, who could not speak
English or French, and wanted five
things, divided his money according to
his idea of their relative cost in little
piles on the counter, and, going through
pantomime descriptive of his wants,
was handed first some silk handker-
chiefs. Taking one up he felt it, held
it up to the light, and, throwing it aside,
shook his head vigorously, uttering an
"Ugh!" of disgust. When shown
better one, he was doubtful but, upon
a much superior article being produced,
he took it, and willingly handed over
one pile for it. This, however, was too
much, and when given the change he
put it on one of the other piles, and pro-
ceeded in the same way to make the
rest of his purchases. How easily they
could be cheated, said to the clerk,
after the Indian had left. sNo, he re-
piled, mot SO easily as would appear ;
They generally come in from their
camps in great numbers once year, to
sell furs and make purchases. They go
to different shops, and on their return
compare notes as to the cost and quality
of their goods. Then, if one has paid
more than another, or has been cheated
in quality, he will never enter the shop
again; and the firm that gives the great
est bargains is most patronized on their
return"
