The new Gar is entertained with an
account of mine projected by the Nihi-
lists to blow up his residence. 1t is be.
ginning early, and is unfair. They
should Mt least give him chance. His
three predecessors occupied the throne of
Russia during the whole of the present
century, or for an average of twenty
seven years. The present Car ought to
be allowed n few years, and the fear of
nitro 'glycerine should not be poked at
him so soon.

During the debate on Che silver ouea.


During the debate on The silver ques.
ton Senator Thurman requested the priv
ilege of asking Senator Window ques-
ton. The prc=sn. Secretary &C .he Treas
ury replied: II will try to answer tho
question, but will first say that Fam prob
ably the only man in this body who lie
conscious of the fact that he does not
know anything about financia! matters"
This showed the present Secretary to be
candid, if not able. The President, in
selecting his Secretary Of the Treasury,
probably wanted man who did not
think he knew too much. 1t is often as
dangerous for man to think he knows
everything as for him really to know very
little.

The Democrats have undoubtedly lost
much in the estimation and respect
Of the people of the United States, by
trading and combining with Greenback-
ers in popular elections. It now rer- aims
to be seen what the country will think
OF party which trades and combines
with repudiators in the United .States
senate. The Republicans have recently
shown willingness to retain power by
q combination with o renegade Demo-
crat and an avowed repudiator. Four
years ago they retained power by fraud,
corruption and perjury. The party that
has done these things will not hesitate
to commit any other possible crime
IN order to perpetuate itself. 1t may be,
however, that juatice, though tardy, will
yet oyertake and destroy the evil. doers.
