The Limit OF ConkIin.,. Perfidy,

The labored complaint of Senator Conklng is a
specious plea To justify his design turn traitor to
the Republican party. No good come from
mincing this matter with words. Conkling means
to destroy the Republican party. This is evident
from his heavy attempt TO make his personal affair
of the offices into great national principle, binding
that which he calls his conscience, and from his ac-
cusing the Presidents general character 1t is cor
election will authorize him to fight the a,mnistra-
tion IN general, and that he thinks the Democrats
will he shrewd enough to keep the Senate in
until he shall have a chance TO open his aggressive
The traitor never lacked a plea OF conscience.
Benedict Arnold's was much like reason and
principle than Senator COnk for he not lift
his out of the simple fact that il is nothing but his
claim to boss the New York offices to reward his
tainers and to punish all Republicans who do not
bow down and worship him. He thinks by this trea-
son to start new Presidential movement. of which
he will lie the Warwick. But the third term has
been played with the utmost sensationnlism. 1t
could never be played again, and if otherwise it
could, Conklings assumption in this quarrel that
Grant was his Man Friday, would kill him.
There is no man with a great store of popularity
that Mr.. Conklins can use to this end. IL there
were such man, Mr. Conklng's would be fatal
to him. Even COnklngis colossal conceit will hard
ly persuade him that he, a candidate. could raise
Presidential tidal wave that would submerse this
administration. Conkling, with his thin shadow,
Patt is able TO deliver the United States Senate
the Democrats, hut that is abOut the extent of his
power as a traitor to the Republican party-Clnei,-
nai Gd-offe.

1t has only been of late years that American novel
readers have had TRANSACTIONS of the works best
French writers, of those wonderful master pieces that
have been the talk of Paris the great literary capital
of the world and have been vastly admired and Law
ishy praised by all who were able to read them in
the original French. Previous to that time,
few Partisan noyelists had American publishers, but
they did not give by any means, fair idea of the
French fctOnal literature of the period Now, both
readers and publishers have realized the merit of the
Partisan novests and all new works promptly
reproduced on this side Of the water. But of all the
American publishers, Messrs. T. Is. Peterson &
Brothers, No. 3O6 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia Pa,
have been, and still are, the first and most active in
giving the public the great French fictions. They
employ constantly large corps of accomplished and
ready translators and no sooner does an important
novel make its appearance in Paris than they set
about preparing it for the American market and in
wonderful short space of time il is on sale everywhere
in the United States Hence it is that the Messr.
Petersons counters may always be found unrival-
led collection of the best and largest French novels.
To give idea of the extent of their operations
in this field il may be stated here that their list
braces the charming and pathetic French and Rus
sian rOmances of Henry Greville the wonderful and
famous fictions of Gnstave Flaubert the brilliant
and artistic works of Octave Feuillet; the highly
finished and powerful stories of Ernest Daudet the
popular and pleasing productions of Prosper Meri-
NEE; the beautiful and touching love tales of the
celebrated George Sand the clever and intensely
interesting writings of Jules Sandeau the exciting
and ingenious novels of Adophe Beoit; the pictur-
esque and enchanting works of Madame Angelo Dus-
saud; the exquisitely pathetic romances of the
Princess Atieri the strong and graphic productions
of Andre Thcuriet; the wild frontier sketches of
Gustave Aimard the classic and refined works of

CoLD FOR CoNKIISG.-Thr first ballot for Sch
ators, at Albany, on Tuesday, showed how mut u
there was in the Conkling boasts. 1t not only
justified the claims Of the anti-Conkling party,
but even surprised them by being better than
they had counted upon. In the Assembly,
Conkling received 26 votes, and in the Senate,
"a total of only b. in the Assembly, Platt re-
ceivcd 81, and in the Senate, s-tOtal, %. The
balance of the Republican vote was scattered,
no candidates having been agreed upon to start
with. The Democratic vote was east for caucus
nominees. II shows that COnkling and Plat
fell far short of a majority of the Republican
vote. As the Conkling forces undoubtedly made
their best showing to start off with, his case
looks hopeless. We believe that 81 is a majori-
ty on joint ballot There are IS Republican
votes in opposition to Conkling. This needs an
accession of but votes from Conkling to decide
the contest As a number of his supporters are
somewhat shaky, there is good reason TO believe
that more than the six will change, in order to
insure an election, when they find that COnklins
is a dead duck.
1t may be possible that the COnkling men and
the Democrats will combine to effect an adjourn
ment without all election, each party hoping to
secure majority in the next Legislature. The
Democrats would be the only ones that could
hope to gain by such course. 1t is question
whether COnkling has sufficient control of all
his supporters to consent to such a risk, by vOt-
ing for an adjournment. If Conkling was hu-
inflated by the Administration, his "endorse-
ment, by the New York Legislature has only adj
ded bitterness to the gall.

As FAR As 1T HAS GoT.-The prospect for en-
forcing the liquor law does not open out very
hopefully. Public sentiment is against it, and
it is going to be the hardest matter in the world
to convict any person on an ordinary charge OF
selling liquor.
A saloon keeper at Topeka was arrested for
selling whiskey, and several persons swore that
they had bought and drank whiskcy in his sa-
loon. The jury acquitted him.
A saloon keeper at Wichita was arrested and
tried on a similar charge, and was acquitted.
John Walruff, the Lawrence brewer, was ar
rested for selling a keg of beer, and the charge
was proven. The jury acquitted him. If this
happens in the seed-bed of Puritanism in Kan
sas, what can be expected of outside barbariansi
A LeavenwOrth druggist was arrested on the
charge of selling certain tinctures and extracts
forbidden by the law. Judge CrOzier (Once Su-
preme Judge of Kansas decided the temper
ance law unconstitutional. The case will be ta-
ken to the Supreme Conrt.
There are several cases pending in Topeka,
where n druggist not licensed filed prescriptions
of whiskey and brandy for q physician not Ii
censed. This case will also go to the Supreme
Court. What that tribunal will do, no man can
guess. But whatever it may be, tribunal in
the shape of jury that refuses to convict, is a
"bigger man than the Supreme Court" The
only way is to pack a jury with men known to
be temperance fanatics.

first batch of nominations for New York sent in,
| was delighted believed then that the President
had determined to recognize the Republican party,
and not u faction but his nomination of to-day con
vnccs that the first act but the squirt of a
deeplaid scheme by somebody TO punish prominent
leaders for being openly friendly TO me. cannot
believe that Gen Garfield il the author of this policy
give him credit for being too big to descend
to such means for punishment of men who gave him
hearty support in his election, and who are disposed
TO give him the support now for the offense of
having had former preference for some ono else for
the office he holds; but Garneld Is President,
and is responsible for all of the administration.
COnkling and Iatt chosen Senators from the
great State of New lork-and that too, against all
the opposition of the administration created by the
same party that elected them This should give them
all the stronger claim TO be consulted in the matter
of appointments in their State. When If comes TO
filling the mast influential office in their State with
out consulting these Senators, it Is great slight
When he selects the most offensive to be fOund
it becomes an insult, and ought to be resented 10
this and correct his mistake himself and restore
harmony TO the party lie owes this to himself and
those without whom he could not have been elected.
Nobody believes that he could have carried the State
of New York wthsGt the active SUPPORT of her
Senators. Their passive support would not have
answered; without the support OF New York, Gar
field would he President. His rewar,ling Robert
is only offensive to the New York Rcpubli-
The change of Balcau and Cramer, the two
appointments in which | felt strong personal in
terest, very distastefu the first because
of personal relations and wish that he should
be kept where his office would support him until he
finishes work he is engaged upon and which
he could do without interfern. with his public du
ties; the second, because it at the expense of
removing the of my old Secretary of State, who
probably never had his snperor-certainly fever for
moral wOrt-in the department. Ii is true that Fish
resigned. but he did this from sense of honor, sup
posing he the duty of representatives abroad TO
give a new administration opportunity of saying
whether they are wanted or not
Very truly yours,
L. =. GRANT.
To j. T. Jones, United States Senator, Washington.
