THE nomination of James y. kerns
a. L. s. Marshal for the East teru district
Of Pennsylvania, which was sent to the
Senate by Mr.. Hayes some time ago, has
not yet been finally disposed of. being in
the hands Of d Subcommittee Tor inves-
Jigatiou. That the nomination was not
fit to have been made, and that it ought
10 be rejected, is all plain enough. Mr..
Wallace holds the fate OF Kerns in this
matter in his own power, and if lie does
not give him "a slice of the day of judg-
ment, = he viii not be excused for his
failure The Democratic majority in
the Senate was equal to the occasion
last week, when it rejected the uomina-
lion OF a man in Wisconsin, Kutchin by
rare- TO be n collector Of internal rev
e1ue. He was a vile defamer of some
.of tie best men in the State, simply be
cause they were Democrats, and if any
man ever deserved his fate Kutchin did.
The same measure of justice should be
-neted out TO James y. Kerns, whose
,ficial sins can never he condoued.

following answer, and the same reason.

THE taking of the next census as our
readers are aware, will commence on the
first Monday OF June and must be COM
pleted within that month. There is a
penalty provided for in the act of Con-
gress for refusing to furnish the infor-
nation required by the Supervisor or
enumerator, and We herewith publish
the law on the subject for general infor-
nation. It is as follows
"AH persons above the age OF twenty one
years who shall refuse to furnish the infor-
nation required by the supervisor or emu
meTatOr shall pay sum not exceeding 500
to be recovered in an action of debt Presi-
dents, Directors or other officials OF private

The most singular delusion in regard
to denomination of the next Democrat
ic candidate for the Presidency is the
effort made in behalf OF Mr.. Ti,deH. No
man who is at all cOnyersant with the
present politics of the country, and who
knows bow many electoral votes it takes
TO elect q President, denies the fact that
in order to elect their candidate it is ab-
sOlutelv necessary for the Democrats to
carry the state Of New York, and that
the loss Of that State means sure and
hopeless defeat, In addition to this. no
man has the shadow Of a reason to doubt
that not only the seregty-Serca thousand
votes cast by Tammany Hall last No
yember against Gov. Robinson, but sew
cral thousand added thereto, would bc
cast against Mr.. Tilden. thus rendering
his defeat in the State, as it did Robin
sons, a foTegone and inevitable conclU-
sion. And vet in the face of this plain
and self-eyident result, there are Demo-
Gratis who are clanorous for 4ir. TildeL s
nomination-men who think and say
that because he was cheated ont of his
election in 1876 by the Returning Boards
of Louisiana and Florida .drst, and by
the Electoral Commission ofterlcards,
every dictate of justice demands his re-
nomination. Most assuredly this ought
to be done il there was reasonable hope
of his election. but in the utter absence
of any such hope, his nomination would
be the most preposterous and suicidal
act that any party ever committed. As
an act Of political infatuation-a delib-
crate shining against all light and all
knowledge--it would ne without 4 par
aliel in the history Of the country.

THE Monroe doctrine which was
originally asserted in this country in
1928 by the President whose name ii
bears. and which is now the subject of a
good deal of newspaper discussion grow
ing ont of the fact that NJ. De LeSSeps.
a French engineer, has commenced the
construct ION of ship canal across the
isthmus of Panama, is referred to by the
Philadelphia Record as follows:
The ''Sionroe doctrine" " as originally pro
mulgated by the fifth President Of the United
States, was one OF the most SeheraiIy ap-
plauded outCivinCs of that able and honoTa-
BILE though not brilliant, statesman. In il
he declared the American policy of neither
entangling ourselves in the bTOilS of Europe,
nor suffering the powers of the Old World to
interfere with the affairs of the New" and
that eve consider any attempt on their part
to extend their system to any portion Of this
hemisphere as dangerous to our peace and
safety" The latter declaration occurs in
President Monroe's S seventh annual Message,
December ., 1923. After remaTking that in
the wars of the European Powers, in matters
relating to themselves, we have never taken
any part, nor does It cOmpOrt with our policy
to do So" he SAYS: ''With the movements
in this hemisphere we are of necessity more
Immediately connected, and by causes which
must be evident to all enlightened ami i'm
partial observers" He proceeds with
the existing colonies or dependencies of any
European Power we have not interfered, and
shall not interfere. But with the Govern
ments who have declared their independence
and maintained it, and whose independence
we have on great consideration and on Just
principles acknowledged, we could not view
any inteTpOSitiOn for the purpose of oppres-
sing them, OF controlling in any other man.

any other light than as the manifestation of
an unfriendly disposition toward the United
States "

FATHER HOJDA7s DEFECTION.-Th
remuneration of the Catholic faith by
Rev. John HOjda, a Bohemian priest
stationed al Baltimore. a notice of which
was published iE these columns last
week, has taken on new and rather un-
savOTy phase. Tnthe popular cant of the
day. there IS woman in the case. and
charges are made that the priest had be-
tTayed a young Bohemian girl before
leaving his native country. that she fol-
lowed him to Baltimore, and that the
pair have now disappeared. Friends Of
Father HOida claim, however, that his
relations with the young woman did not
involve any violation of morality. but
that, having fallen deeply IN love with
the young lady. his vows Oe celibRcy had
become iTksome, and that Immediately
upon TenOUncing his allegiance to the
Catholic Church and abandoning his
pTiestly functions, he married the girl
and went to New York with her. where
they are now living in lawful wedlOck.
Rev. Mr.. Pister, the pastor of the Lu-
theTan congregation into which Mr. Hoi-
da was received, says that the eX-priest
had expressed to him his intention Of
leaving the city. as when the archbishop
learned of his action it would create too
much comment. and ne would therefore
remain away from Baltimore until the
excitement subsided. 1t is known that
at the time of Mr.. Hojda s alleged con-
version and reception into fellowship by
the Lutheran Church be had been sus-
pended from his ecclesiastical duties pen
ding an eStigation of charges Of i'm
proper conduct that had been made
against him.

The Way to Win.

During the present year the American
people will again be called upon to select
a President whose term of office, II MS
life be spared, will extend for four years
from the 4uh of March, 1881. In Few
months the two great political parties OF
the country will put their candidates IN
the field, and then the struggle for su-
premacy will begin. Which VIII be sue
cessful will depend entirely upon the
candidates nominated, for, strange as II
NAV seem, the old maxim, principles,
not men," seems to have been reversed
in modern politics. An improper or un-
popular candidate cannot be elected by
either party on the sOundest' platform.
Though fairly representing his party,
he must be sound himself, thoroughly
trusted by the rank and file as well as
the leaders. and enjoy 10 the fullest ex-
tent the confidence Of the masses, not
only because he IS Standard-DeareI,
but. for the better reason, that he IS al
together fitted to be one. Just now
there seems to be an unhappy conflict OF
opinion in the Democratic ranks as 10
who should be their leader. We are
afraid that the conflict IS based more
upon the desire to promote individual
interests than to secure party success.
+ This is perhaps natural in the present
construction Of parties. Candidates are
named as available merely because they
faepresent factions and not because they
are supposed to be acceptable to the
whole united Democracy. This prefer
ence is founded quite as much upon the
hope of prospective plunder as upoE the
real merit of the candidate. We are
aware that it is a difficult if not an i'm
possible thing to find man acceptable
To every one George ID Prentice once
said, with great force 1T is III vain
to hope to please all alike. Let man
stand with his face in what direction he
will. be must necessarily turn his back
on one-half of the world" As with
men so with parties, and hence it is a
fact which must be looked squarely in
the face. that whoever is nominated Will
be made the candidate iii opposition to a
large number in the Democratic ranks.
In this view of the case the National
/ Democracy should earnestly strive to
find the very best man for the crisis,
without reference to sentiment, or pref
udice, or individna, interests, or the
pTOmptings of factions. Such a man
may not be easy to find, but he is worth
diligently looking for. Without him
the party viii go into an utterly hopeless
contest, with no chance Of success, and
. the same political organization that has
ruled the nation since 1860 will again
reap the fruits of victory. The DemOc-
+ racy can elect a President this coming
! Fall if wise and prudent cOunsels pre-
vail. but they need not hope to do SO un-
/ less they show that they are worthy of
public confidence by nominating a can
didate whom the people respect and can
trust after the election as well as before
the battle is fought. Baltimore Gazette.
