Republicans find it impossible to quar-
rel with the administration upon q
question of patronage when its record
otherwise is so nearly perfect. Mr..
Blaine struck the key note of American
sentiment when he announced that the
rights of American citizenship every-
where in the world would be pro-
tected. Mr.. WINDOWS achievements
as a financier are the admiration of
the world. Mr.. James is making
reforms in the post Office depart
ment every day, and beyond ques-
ton he will put the postal service upon
a paying basis ere his term shall close.
He was hardly warm in his seat before
he ordered an investigation into the
star-route frauds. Mr.. Macveagh, the
attorney general, took it up at the pro-
per time, and to-day indictments are
nearly ready upon which to bring the
rascals to the bar of justice. The pres
ident himself has taken no half-hearted
interest in the work of publication,
but has told his subordinates to 60
ahead and let the exposure be complete
in all respects. No guilty man, high or
low, must escape. The attempt to con-
meet him with the star-route contractors
through the agency of the Brady letter
did not live for single hour. We re-
peat, 1t Is impossible for Republicans
to quarrel with an administration that
Is doing such good work in all its de-
partments upon the petty issues that
grow out of the spoils of politics.

,ellent reason that the Oldest manu-
scripts, and presumably the most cor
rect, agree in not containing them,
they having been the additions of later
transcribers. The general literary tone
of the old version is preserved, and
though some mere verbal alterations
may seem 10 have been unnecessary,
yet as the whole the work seems to be
we'll done,as well as any body of schol-
srs could do It. Any revision what
ever would have it's opponents, but
certainly no merely sentimental objec-
tions to II should prevail for an instant.
The only question to be considered is,
whether the revised version is more
correct rendering of the actual words
written by the inspired writers than
the present version Is. The answer Ia
this question seems plain enough, and
there probably will be no formidable
opposition to accepting the new revis'
ion on the part of those who seek the
truth.

ISome fellows in New York are
trying to build new political party
by sending out blood-curdling docu-
ments on our political dangers from
monopolies. The people will smash
illegal and oppressive monopolies when
they getready. Atpresent q more press
ing question is the right of every voter
In this country to cast his ballot freely
and have it honestly counted. Until
this is settled the Republican party has
not fulfilled Its mission. The anti-mo-
nopoly party will amount to something
when its need overshadows all others,
and not before. 1t cannot be manufac.
tured to order.

1There are diverse opinions ex.
pressed regarding the revised New
Testament and from many quarters
comes quite strong clamor against it,
on account Of the number and charac-
ter OF the alterations made. This was
to be expected. Many good Christians
will oppose 1t, because they have sen.
timental love for the text as they have
learned 1t from childhood, and dislike
to see strange words replacing those
which are familiar, though erroneous.
A large class oppose 1t without much
reason, because, as they say the old
version Is good enough for them.
Nevertheless, no reasonable person
could dispute the desirableness Of hay
ing the English Testament as correct a
rendering of the true text of the oriRi.
nal versions as possible. II is certain
that our present New Testament is not
correct translation In many points,
and an incorrect translation gives
wrong meanings to the inspired writ
ings. Linguistic science and textual
criticism have wonderfully advanced
since the time of the King James Yer
sion, besides which the scholars of the
present day have access to ancient
manuscripts Of the scriptures which
were unknown two hundred years ago.
We have, therefore, right to feel that
the work of body Of scholars like the
authors of the new version is vastly
more correct than the old version.
A comparison of the two versions
shows how in many cases the new
Translation clears up the meaning of
passages which before had been OBJ
scure. Important changes, affecting
doctrinal texts, are extremely few.
Some omissions are made, as the as
cription Of praise closing the Lords
Prayer, but they are made for the ex-

wln following the Conkling crowd
to Albany and working in the interest
OF that falling obelisk of political ar.
rogance, and against the harmony aud
success of the administration of which
he is q part, Vice President Arthur
has lowered himself immensely. The
dignity of his position, with the great
possibilities belonging to lit, demand
from him that he should be above the
arts Of the mere wire-pulling politician
But the dog will return to his vomit,
and perhaps little else was to have
been expected Of Arthur. The people
have good reason to be ashamed of him,
and can only console themselves with
the reflection that there will be no more
vice-presidents of Conkling's making.
Meanwhile let us all fervently pray the
good Lord to deliver us from the mis-
fortune which would make him presi.

This work will commend itself both
to the skeptical scientist and to the firm
believer in Divine Revelation-to the
former by the eminent fairness with
which the doctrines of the modern
scientific philosophers are weighed be-
fore they are condemned: to the latter
by the forcefulness of the criticism 10
which IL subjects the generalizations of
rationalistic Science, and the vast
wealth of learning with which the
author maintains his positions.
