Tho Change ofErOat.

Phliiuciphla Times.
The Republican change of front on tn,
tariff question has begun even sooner than
We expected. The ablcst Republican,
journal in the country, with possibly 4
single exception, could not wait until the
result of the presidential election was off
cially determined before calling upon Cen
Garfield to throw aside the mask he is sup
posed to have assumed for campaign pur-
poses and to come out boldly for revenue
reform. The Erening Post was sure all
along, but did not feel that it was safe to
say that the Republican candidate for pres
ident ''has reached clear and liberal conclu-
sions'' in respect to this question. This is
the cid cant phrase OF the free traders. II
this assurance had been voiced sooner it
might have stopped the flow Of money
from manufacturing establishments into
the Republican campaign fund. and per
haps have cost Garfield the votes OF; Penn
sylvania and Connecticut. But there Is;
now 10 necessity for concealmcnt. The
Post will be followed in course Of time and
at decent intervals by the Chicago Tribune.
the New York Times and the Cincinnati
Commercial. and their demand will have
weight, for they have borne the heat and
burden of the journalistic fight for Gar
fields election. When the fight wakes
warm, if not before, the solid men OF bu
siness whose money and whose influence
turned the tide of battle will realize once
more that when business plays into the
hands of the politicians it is not the poll
ticians who get the worst of the game.

The Worship Of Animals.

In the infancy Of mankind almost every
system of mythology included the worship
or vencration of animals. In one land the
deity was 4 bull, in another it was :, scr
pcnt, in yet another it was bird and IN
lands like India and Egypt almost every
known animal was either an incarnatetl
deity Or demon. The same reasons that
caused the animal to be deiticd and wor-
SHIPPED would, in q short time, surround
its worship with numberlcss myths and
legends, that would he remembered long
after the occasion that called them into cx-
istcnce had been forgotten. As an instance
of this, VIC need only cite the
return Of the Israclitcs in the desert OF
Sinai to the worship of the golden calf
the image of the Apis god of the Egyp-
tiaas-tlley probably being no more aware
that under this cid0len was represented
the sun-god in the zodiacal sign Taurus
than were the mass of the Egyptians them
selves. Still another reason why these
myths and legends would remain long af-
ter their real meaning is forgotten, is due
to the metaphoric nature of all early Ian
guages and this cause would act still
more strongly il the various shades of
meaning OF each mctaphorical term were
not limited Ivy accurate writing. Brinton

"Michabo into "The Great Hare" lost

Now, after waiting two months, the
treasurer sends Il communication to the
select council declaring that he thinks it
time that he should be as publicly vindi-
Gated rs he had been DETAINED, since

over his books and found that he owed
the city nothing, but that the city owed

We know nothing of the facts further
than they appear in the proceedings Of
councils. But if it is true as stated by
Mr.. Welchans, that the expert who found
the deficit in his accounts now finds and
has reported to The presidents CT coun'
ellis that no deficit exists, the treatment
of the treasurer by councils is simply
infamous.

What Did 1t.
y. \, World.


General Garfield will be chosen pres;-
dent of the United States by the electoral
vote of this state, and this vote he
will receive only in consequence Of
a disastrous and unexpected falling off in
the Democratic ma jOrities Of Brooklyn
and Of this city. That this falling off was
the result of causes quite outside Of the
national contest is absolutely certain. The
vote of New York state will he given to
General Garfield, not because General Gar
field is the choice of majority Of the
voters Of New York. but because, not for
the first time in the history of our munich
pal parties, local and personal interests
have been preferred to the general welfare
of the country. Mr.. Tweed, for example,
gave this state to the Republicans in 1871
by forcing on the city Democracy his can
didacy for a reelection to the State Senate.
He was elected, but an entire county ticket
and a Legislature were sacrificed. New
York has secured Democratic city gov
ernmcnt, which is SO far good thing, but
it remains to be seen whether New York
could not have this at less cost than
that of the 35 electoral votes which added
to 13S from the South . from New Jersey
3 from Nevada, not to mention California,
and Oregon, would have elected General
Hancock president of the United States.
This is not the time for dealing in detail
with the causes which have provoked the
results we see in this city and in Brooklyn,
nor for suggesting practical preventives Of
the recurrence of such a calamity hereafter.
But it is time to invite Democrats general
ly to look into the causes of these results
and to make careful analysis of figures
and statistics of the recent election, while
these are yet freshly before us, to the end
that when within another month new
general committees shall be selected by
the Democratic voters, the lessons which
those figures and statistics have to teach
may not be lost sight of.
Starving to Death at III Years of Age.
Margaret Dempsey, said to be III years

There is tradition that Mrs. Dempsey
when girl ran away from home TO marry
u lover who soon deserted her. She came
to this place years ago and has lived \
hermit ever since. 1t is supposed that
she became too feeble to rise from her bed
and slowly starved to death.
