PUBLIC OPINION.
If President Arthur will amputatc him
self from Roscoe Conkling, he will find the
republican party at his side, constant en-
thusiastic, confident, irresistible. Is not
such support worth having But he cannot
serve country and Conkling at once. Per-
haps the new president realizes this-[Syra-
cuse Standard.
TRUE sTATEMANT.
The Garfield republicans, and they COM
prise nne-tenths Of the republican party
everywhere, have only the best of wishes
for Pesident Arthur's complete success in
executing the delicate and Onerous trust to
which he succeeded. In carrying out the
programme issued by the president ON be-
ing sworn into Office neither he nor any of
his friends will lack lcgionS of warm and
enthusiastic supporters.-l Boston Tran

UNGENERous.
As Mr. Cyrus W. Field is the man who
suggested the creation of the fund for Mrs.
Garfield as lac contributed literally To it,
and as he has used great cXcrtion to induce
Others to do so, it seems really ungencrouS
tor some Of the newspapers to accuse him
of desire 10 gain nutOrety by his action
in the matter Such an attack supplies
another proof that there are some men who
always follow the suggestion; "When you

AsEvERE TEST.
A severe test is now applied to the party
in New York The Causclcss strife which
was prccipitated by thu fearful designations
of the senator's called forth an avalanche of
Censure and rcbuke upon those offenders,
and demonstrated the temper and strength
of the constituencies. The death of Gar
field has not changed the affection and con-
iidencc of the people for him, and their dis
trust of his enemies and their c0ndcmna-
ton of them. Those enemies are trying
to mount to power over his open grave
They aim to use the New York convention
to that end, They threaten an unsccmly
contest there as they have created disgrace
FIJI disturbance in several counties, II the
state committee shall behave only decent n
fair organization can he effected, and the
convention will lay deep and strong the
foundations of permanent peace and power
for the party in New York Those WHO can
advise that committee have much to
answer ior.--UtiCa Herald,
THE DESPERATION OF THE MACHINE IN NEW
YORK.
1t is hoped for thc.good of the administra-
ton that the report that MIR. tonkling will
make no further effort to control the New
York state convention Ia, good foundation.
1t has been evident that the ex-senator is
determined to secure from the convention
what Inc mcy regard as NiudlCatiOn of his
course in rcsigning and in seeking re-cleC-
tuin to the senate. such a course must be
regarded rs a renewal of the contest which
involves the approval or disapproval of the
Garfield administration, fthC state con
yention should approve ConklingS course,
such approval cannot be otherwise regard

! GoOD-BYE, TUTHILL.
Has this public forgotten Tuthill? Let us
trust not. Tuthill was the member Of til,
last assembly through whom Mr.. Conklinl
= shot his frey speech against the "ierOCiou'
and atrocOus' persons who took him at hi,
! word when he resigned. Tuthill OBLIGATED
! in This capacity several times, and as the
Conkling rhetoric is not built for fluent and
, easy delivery, Tuthill was much exhausted
% by the operation. This service does moi
seem to have been tavoraby received BY
Tuthilrs constituents, for at the recent re-
= publican convention in his district the fol-
lowing resolution was adopted unanimous
ly on rising vote: Resolved, That the nc
ton OF the legislature in COnCurring with
the designations of ey-Scnators Conklinl
and Plat, and in filling the vacancies thus
created by the elections of Hons. Il. G.
,, Lapham and Warner Miller, has our cor
dial approval; and that the action of Mr.
II. IL Tuthill, our present representative
in misrepresenting the wel-known convic
tions of this assembly district, has our utter
. condemnation
The time seems to have arrived for SAVING

PRESIDENT GARRETr's INCONSISTENCY.
Regarding tho ultimate result of the con
0 test, New Workers can have but one wish
Q and scarcely any doubt. President Gar
rctt's demand that Baltimore shall be al
p lowed to take away our trade because of he
geographical position, notwithstanding
President Vanderbilt offers to make by M
I adjustment of railroad rates, our position
Q practically rs good as Baltmore's, canuo
be countcnanced far moment. He athe
inconsistency charges that President Van
derbill's course at present is actuated NOR,
[ by desire to prevent the building of new
: lines parallel to the New York Central than
G by desire to benefit New York city, and
/ Tor all We know, he may he right But
since any new parallel will complete fol
, western traffic quito MS muol
with the Baltimore Il Ohio
Railroad as with the New York
= Central, we do not soc that this is a griey
4 ance for President Garrett to complain of
: II President Vanderbilt succeeds in the ne.
farious scheme attributed to him, President
Garrett will have one rival the less to con
tend with, and will profit by the result quit,
! as much as President Vanderbilt.-[N. Y
