The Presidents ano,ogv

The New York halfbreeds having
made a disturbance in the administra-
ton camp because Of the appointment OF
a few thoroughbred Republicans to un-
important offices after the conclusion OF
! the Robertson outrage, the faithful
spokesman of the President telegraphs to
the New York Tribune an apology for this
unexpected conduct. He says:
Those who complain of this course do not COM
prehend the Presidents policy nor the principles
upon which ii is based.
Well, they cannot be blamed for not
being able to discover either policy or
principlesinthe President'scourse. Again
He is not seeking in the least to ostracize the
Republicans who have been Mr. Conkling's follow
ers and supporters in the past.
Certainly not. He is anxious to buy
some of them to defeat Mr. Conkling in
the present. He continues:
1t is evidently the intention of the President to
have it fully, distinctly and widely known. from
Buffalo to Brooklyn that the object of his admin
istriton is to abolish factions in New York and to
have one grand, united, harmonious enthusiastic
Republican party in the State.
The intention to abolish factions" 8"
will be fully carried out if he succeeds in
his efforts to destroy the party itself He
is trying to scuttle the ship, in order to
drown those of his Shipmates who do
not suit him. But, as all are on one ship.
how could he himself escape making of
himself what Mr. Mantilini calleda dem
milton moist, unpleasant body?" The
President will not be allowed to scuttle
the ship

The New York senatorshrps.

New York Senators have resigned be-
fore Conkling and Platt. New York's first Senator
was the brave and noble Philip Schuyler, who had
TO make room for Burr, and who, when Burr be-
came Vice. President, succeeded him only to hold
the Senatorship short time and resign it. Sena-
tor Rufus King in 1896 resigned it to become Min
lister to England. John Lawrence, a Revolution
ary hero, who had acted as judge advocate for
Major Andre and served two years as United States
district judge in this city, held the Senatorshp
short time, and resigned because ofillness. for
gotten Senator Senators do come to be forgotten
by the name of James Watson, a Knickerboeker,
whose name is only preserved in that Of James
Watson Webb, resigned after short service for per-
sonal reasons, and was succeeded by Gouverneur
Norris. General John Armstrong, the maternal
grandfather of John Jacob and William Astor. re-
signed the Senatorship to become Minister to
France. De Witt Clinton in 1902 resigned the Sen
atorship to take the Office of mayor of New York,
which he filled for ten years. Theodorus Bailey
resigned the senatorship in 1908 to qualify as post
master of New York city. Van Buren,, Marcy, and
Wright resigned as Senators when they were elected
Governors. The only Senator whom political COM
plications can be said to have influenced in ten
dering his resignation was Nathaniel P. Tallmadge
who in Tyler's times, broke with his old political
colleagues, and was glad to resign and accept the
post of Governor of Wisconsin Territory. Since
then, for period of thirty seven years no resgna-
tions of Senatorships have occurred until Conkling
and Platt rendered theirs.

/ POst-Omce Reform.

The Post-Office Department has just
inaUgurated grand reform, namely: Ii
has caused the withdrawal from THE Ma
TI0NAL RErUBLICAN of the advertisement
OF the departure Of foreign mails from the
port of New York. This advertisement
WIS great convenience to many in this
city, and perhaps to none more than to
the Diplomatic Corps. 1t is not now ad-
yertised in Washington at all. Whether
this important retrenchment was ordered
by Woodward, or was an efferyescence of
the boiling rage for reform which ami
mates the Postmaster-General, we know
not. THE REPUBLICAN will continue to be
published daily Except Sundays as be-
fore. No change in terms.

The Future.

The Conservative party, which at one
time included all the strong elements of
Southern society, is now disorganized
everywhere. A Dutch sailor tied UP his
sloop at night to floating buoy, mistak-
ing it for land, and, driven out to sea by
a sudden storm, found himself in the
morning at the mercy of the waves. So
the Conservative party tied itself in the
darkness to the Northern Democracy, a
mere mass of political driftwood, bound
together only by the cohesive power of
public plunder," gathered by one tide to
be dispersed by the next. The November
gale scattered its rotten fragments over
the stormy seas. The Conservative
party drifts helplessly, vast and unman-
ageable, its weak hulk threatening each

DE Lesseps is offered capital good op-
portunity to swell his bank account and demon
strate at the same time his own faith in the under
taking he has begun. Let NJ. de Lesseps come
north and interview Mr.. Walter ". Evans the en-
gineer. Mr.. Evans has something to say that will
interest our French cousin. This gentleman, who is
thoroughly familiar with the proposed route of the
De LessepS canal across the Isthmus of Panama,
predicts failure for that enterprise. De Iesseps
he says proposes TO build canal, one end which
Is located in the Chagres valley, where the river
after heavy rain fall sometimes rises twenty five
feet in four hours and creates force which would
sweep away any canal. 1t should not, Mr.. Evans
says, be built on a line of drainage for large
Waie--si'e I'll built by private enterprise he says
the canal could never be made to nay So conf
dent is Mr.. Evans that the Panama canal viii not
be built that he says he has made standing offer
to bet 100000 francs that De LessepS will not pass
ship through his canal in 1887, and will renew
the bet every year after that until the other party
shall win

Slang Phrases.

Perhaps no other slang phrase ever be-
came so popular as What never?-at all events
among those who speak English. who struck
Billy Patterson do you bruise your oats ?'
Don't give it away" and others attained con-
siderable notoriety but the "Pinafore" gag
discounted them all put together. Perhaps the
funniest rendering of it was that attributed to a
friend of John Stetson, the manager, upon whom
every new joke of theatrical character is imme-
diately saddled. Somebody asked him whether
Stetson ever spelled an English word correctly in
his life. The usual "What, never" followed and
this sincere friend wound up by saying, No
by G., not even hardly ever" 1t was the same
gentleman who was in Stetsons company one Sun
day morning when they waited three hours for a
Metropolitan Elevated Railroad train, not know
ing that no trains ran on that line on Sunday.
Noticing the initials " N. E r. on the station the
friend asked Stetson what they meant" Method
ist Episcopal Railroad" promptly replied John.
1t was Stetsonh first approached Sara Bern

armed himself with blank cheque and an inter-

1t has been suggested that the two
Arctic expeditions about to set out from San Fran
cisco should each carry coils of light steel wire
which could be easily transported over ice and
snow on sledges, for the purpose of maintaining
communication between the exploring parties and
the bases of supplies from which they push for
ward into an unknown and peEilous region. Il is
said that the wires could be rapidly laid as each
party proceeded, and constant telephOnic commu-
nication kept up with comparatively slight addi-
tionai cost and labor This proposal is at present
nothing more than a suggestion, but it is offered
by an electrician, Mr. James Gamble, of the West
ern Union Telegraph Company.

L desire to call your attention to the

only destructive to fish, but it is ruinous to the

No! They did not ask for Office. But
they felt very keenly the insult of being

to be Ostracized because he had fear
that they might not be ready to help pack

IT is matter of fact that in eight States
of this Union at least there are no fair
elections, no right of assemblage, no free
discussions, no justice in the courts for
Republicans, white or black. 1t is no
torious that sixteen Senators and not less
than forty members of Congress hold
their seats as the result of violence and
fraud! The votes given the South bv
freeing the negro are wrested by force
and perverted to continue the wrong +:
Liberty is stabbed with her own sword
and in her own temple! 1t is notorious
that in the cotton States, except Georgia
and North Carolina, there is no civil gov
ernment, eXcept=in form. Yet sham Re-
publicans permit it. 1t is notorious that
thousands of murderers like those of
ChiSolm stalk the South to-day, boasting
Of their bloody deeds, the assassins of
loyal men, not one of whom has been
brought to justice. A sham Republican,
ism is responsible for this. Let shame
less inconstancy and bIse hypocrisy be
forever driven from the party, and let it
Vindicate its honor and protect its own
voters. This it can only do by cordial
aiiiiation in the South with brave and
true nGtive whites who have abandoned
the Bourbon Democracy and are battling
fer political freedom.
