The federal p,utocracy hangs on
to government by a very slender
tendril. 1t is the tabled sword Of
Damocles, always ready rapidly to
descend. 1t is the g~uillotine, ever
threatening to cut off the head Of the
inventor. The hair that holds this
leaden load is the repudiating rebel,
Malone, of Virginia. Omnibus
name! Och hone! Malone! And it
is by this putrid thread that the
whole republican party is held.
What a pestilent accident! The des-
tiny of this great country dependent
upon the vote of a man who was
elected by the state of Virginia to
do the very thing which he refused to
do, and who boasts of Reputation as
a second religion. Upon this insig-
nificant manikin the whole govern
ment depends. If he dies the senate
changes at once as he can have no
successor like himself. If he is i'll
all the office holders elected by his
vote would be thrown into convul-
sions. If he is absent even courtesy
refuses to pair with a man powerful
only in perfdy. 1t would not be
safe to charge that this atom was
bought to betray his own state; but
nobody doubts what he himself
shoulders from. The slightest ac-
cident may obliterate him. and then
the whole fabric held by his atten-
uated support falls to the ground
like a dead corpse. This is a mis-
cradle spectacle. A breath made as
a breath may unmake Malone; and
to secure his vote the whole admin.
istration strains every nerve; yet the
double shame remains an undyine
infamy. When that vas secured the
president sent him flowers and the
galleries applauded. Why should
we hope for honesty or courage in
others when our rulers set such 6
p~atteTn?-Progress.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1881-04-14

Harpei's Weekly does not seem
to entertain q very exalted opinion
of Malone and seems somewhat
distrustful of the Influences that
brought about his sudden conversion
to Republicanism. It says: aft he
votes with the Republicans because
he has been promised the chair
mapship of a committee, or the con
troll of national patronage in his
State, then it is going into a house
of bondage, not coming out of it. In
that case his action would be merely
part of a ~disgraceful bargain, and
something of which no other honest
citizen need feel proud. Political
conversion by patronage is not edi-
flying. There is always a doubt of
its depth or it's continuity. Conver-
sions that depend upon price are al
ways at the mercy of a higher price.
We should be sorry to suppose, also,
that REIMBURSEMENT was a Repub
lican principle in Virginia or any.

The Philadelphia Times says it
must seem like q leaf from its visit

sec again in Washington tho old ia
miliar faces of Madison Wells, Mrs.
jerks, Pitkin, Pinchback and the
odds and ends of that piebald throng
that made his Louisiana ~sojourn c
beautiful picture to hang in the
halls of memory. 1t is an evidence
of The elevated tone of the party in
power that these reputable pillars
shonld be fixed under the pavilion
Of its spltnders. A reform admins
~tration without tn, Sc great and good
men and women would be a pretty
poor affair. Nothing could SO admi-
rably illustrate the reform tenden
cies of the administration as the
retention of Wells, Pinchback and
the returning board traf1iickers.-

lger dangerous, perhaps they MAJ
not find silence a commodity under

More trouble. Senator Mitchell
was elected in Pennsylvania as a
compromise between the Stalwarts
and the Liberals, upon the under
standing that he was to see that
both factions got a share of the spoils.
The Democratic press at the time
pointed out that Mitchell would do
Camelon's bidding, and so it has
turned out. A wall goes up from
the Cameron faction that Cam,
eron is grabbing all the offices and
Mitchell raises no objection. Mitch
ell admits that is SO, but explains
that he defers to Cameron because
he "wants to promote harmony"
1t strikes the Liberal faction that it
is a queer way to promote harmony
by officially starving them to death
il sight of the flesh pots, butiti is so.
There is unhappiness all around.
Garfield may have excellent inten
tions but ideas about "harmony". are
proving impracticable. The Stall
warts and the "half breeds" cannot
dwell in peace together, says the
Cleveland PLAIN Dealer.

President Garfield was so iabchr
frightened at the Eruption of Office
seekers early in March that he adopt
ed various expedients to reduce the
numbers. Mrs.- Garfield has also
found it heeessarytqpu a limit to-
the freedom of late characterizing
White House receptions. And-the
ladies of the Cabinet, after conside-
ration have decided that they will be
unable to return calls. All these
things show that the country is
growing, and that Washington is be-.
coming a populous city instead of a
struggling village. Twenty people
come here for Office, to see the sights,
or to spend a season, where one came
prior to 1860. There is also a stea-
Idly gain in the permanent population
of the city, especially of the best
class of citizens. The negro inva
sion commenced in 1851, and kept
up through the war, lost force after
1865, but was straightforward 1871
l'72 ard '73, while Shepherd was
spending ga million a minute in
street Improvements. 1t has ceased
now, and, under the influence of
good treatment, good schools and
good wages, the bulk of the colored
people are becoming reputable cfti-
ze1s. The future of the city is as
much assured as that of the country.
The death rate among it's white res
idents is less than that of any other
city of equal population. aA
| There has been absolutely no pro
gress in bushes at the Senate dur
ing the past week. The Republican
Senators are very, very anxious to
proceed to executive business, but
won't do it. They still insist on
first electing three or four officers Of
The Senate, They remind me of the
barefooted boy, who, when asked
by his father one winter day, what
he wanted, said he wanted a pair OF
shoes, but he mast have a bosom
pin. It as certain as fate that our
Republican brethren will go without
the jewelry until December, at least,
unless they accept the shoes first.
There is not one Democratic Senator
who will yield. As the Republican
administration is placed in a ridicu
lous and damaging position by the
deadlock, it is probable some of the
Republican Senators will be infuene
ed to break it. The President or
Secretary Blaine could so in an hour.

accompanied by Senator Jones, Of

between the administration and the
New York Senator attracts more at
