GfOVerSy WITHOUT aQdlClOnal DurQen upon
the people, and with an early prospect of
reduced taxes, by reason of increased taxa
BILE resources.
We believe it to be in the power of the
suits for the Commonwealth by united ao-
ton in support of its principles and can
didates, and we believe it to be no less its
duty to do so, in justice to itself and its ma
tional identity. Where the way is so plain
for the maintenance of the cardinal prin-
ciples of the National Republican par
ty and its rescue from the dangerous COM
plication which threatens it in this State.
and the results to the people so full of as
surance for good, it would look like DELHI
crate suicide or treason not to avail of it.
An united Republican strength in this con-
test would, upon such issues, not only as
sure success in November, but would so en-
trench the party in the confidence of the
people, drawing to it the better elements of
both the Democratic factions, as to perpet-
uate its power for years to come. To our
mind it is the surest way to the consumma-
ton of the ends at which the Republicans
aim. Such demonstration of the motives
which govern it, would establish it in pub
lie confidence, remove all apprehensions
OF bad government, liberalize public thought
and elevate the plane and tone of party
contests. Not that we could expect, In
any contingency, the support of the Dis
patch, or those it represents, but the real
conservative sentiment of the State would
gladly avail of an opportunity to unite with
any party that would make State credit its
primary demand, in correcting the wrongs
which have been inflicted upon the poor
people of the State because of their poverty
and enforcing the most liberal legislation in
me spirit of the Constitution and laws OF
the country.
For these reasons we favor the policy of 4
riaeing Republican ticket in the field, and |

Republican party through that Organiza-
ton. He was not empowered by the Con-
| vention to forestall the action OF lis party
through its organization. or to tumble the
Republican party into the Re-adjuster OF
any other party, without any personal con-
sultation or action of the authorities OF the
party. He had a perfect right as an indi-
vidual to do as he has done accept the
nomination of an opposing and distinct
party from his own, for high public posi-
ton. That act officially identified him
with the Re-adjuster organization. and we
are sure his own sense OF propriety will
su ggest to him the palpable Inconsistency
of holding to the position Of Chairman OF
the Republican Central Committee, whilst
a candidate for Lieutenant Governor on the
Re-adjuster ticket. His action was taken
without the sanction of the authorities of
his party which alone had the right to de-
termine its policy. He placed himself out
side of his party organization and beyond
the reach of its control when he accepted
the nomination of another party, before
subject, in the only way it could deliberate
through State Convention.
1t is due to fairness that we should pre-
sent this view of the case as 1t stands.
We do so in no spirit Of unkindness to any
parties concerned. Indeed we hope that
calm councils and aconciliatory disposition
may yet reconcile the differences In the
party which have so suddenly assumed ugly
proportions, and that some plan may yet be
devised to bring the conflicting interests to-
gether, SO that the integrity Of the party
may be maintained and its full force felt IN
the canvass. We have but one object In view
and that is to further the interests OF the
Republican party in the State and Nation,
as the most effective agency to stimulate the
progress and growth Of the country. and
assure prosperity to the people, with the
rights OF all equally and alike considered

Is Culture a Sham.

A great many people whose manners are
have had frequent occasion to feel as
prominent preacher did last Sunday when
he said that culture at times seemed q sham.
Few words have even lost their original
meaning as completely as this word "cul-
ture" has doncin late years. Once 10 signi.
fed, according to the dictionary, "enlighten-
ment and discipline acquired by mental
training" but now 1t means merely smat-
tering of things OF no vital consequence to
any one. Modern culture claims that il re-
fines men and women. II it can prove that
it does this il should be held in high esteem;
but experience proves that ninety-nne one
hundredths of what passes for refinement is
the thinnest sort of polish-a mere gloss that
can be applied at short notice to any course,
rough or rotton material without any effect
whatever upon texture, Culture is genuine
only so far AS something is cultivated A
man whose manner to his intimates Is cour-
teous and to others rude is not o cultured

enough TO counterfeit true courtesy. In the
best of men culture is only PARTIAL in one
the efforts is confined TO manners in an
other to the affections some devote most
attention to their intellect, and few men
specially culture their moral sentiments
Any one of these has as good a right as
any others TO be considered culture. A care
full training of taste results in culture Of taste
and Of nothing else, for correct taste is quite
as often found in discourteous, dishonest,
selfish and immoral persons as in any others.
All the dress, upholstery, music, pictures,
bric-a-brac and blue china in the world can
not impart culture TO any qualities but those
that arc attracted by these things, and the
literary sugar plums that pretend TO be the
whole Of literature are equally ineffective
outside of their own particular lines. The
sooner the present generation realizes this
the sooner most disagreeable class Of hypo-
critics will pass away. Culture, to be thorough
must begin at the bottom, and the foundation
of all human improvement is personal char
acter.--Ne,o York Herald.
