hopes upon the reaction which has usually
followed Presidential election, the effect OF
the temperance campaign supported with their
money, and the general lack Of interest IN the
canvass caused by the illness and death
of President Garfield The calculation
omitted one important factor: the feel
ing of the Republicans of Ohio that they could
Gttiuely honor the memory of Garfield by
making the party to which he was dcyotedly
attached once more victorious in his own
State.
The result is fall Of encouragement to
the Rcpublicans Of Ncw-Iorl, and other States

Rrpublican party has an mdiminished stock
of vitality, and is not laying on lis oars alter

Upon Senator MCPHERSON Of Ncw-Jcrscy, fell
the uugracous task of presenting the petition
of certain members Of the Ncw-York Lc2iSla-
ture against the admission of the two new
Senators from this State. 1t is due To him TO
say that he performed it yesterday with APP
parent unwillngncsa and explained that he did
not wish the petition treated as an obstacle 10
the immediate seating OF Mrs,Is. Miller and

4 DISASTROUS FIFE.

Last evening fire broke out in the stables
of the Fourth Avenue Street Railway Line oc-
cupying the entire block between Fourth and
Lexington-aves. and Thirty second and Thir-
ty-third-sts The building had old dry wooden
floors and partitions, and contained large guam
titles of hay and straw. Its total destruction
was inevitable after the fire had gained few
minutes' Roadway. A northwesterly wind car
RED the flames across Thirty-second-st. to
the Morrell Warehouse, a large structure
used for the storage of valuable furniture,
pictures, ETC. This was also destroyed, together
with several dwellings. So fierce WAS the Heat
from the burning buildings, and so immense
were the sheets of flame famed by the wind,
that the utmost skill and efforts of the Fire
Department were taxed to keep the cOnilagra-
ton from sweeping eastward in a broad track
of destruction across one Of tho most popu
lous portions of the city. Confined though
it was to two blocks, the loss it
inflicted viii no doubt amount to
a large sum. roughly estimated now at two
millions of dollars.
The first reflection suggested by this disaster
is that a huge receptacle of inllammable mate
rails. like u street-car stable, ought not TO be
permitted in thickly built district to endan-
ger the lives and property of thousands of
people without some special safeguards against
fire spreading 10 the whole structure. Such
buildings should be strictly ireproOf and
should be divided into sections by thick walls
and iron doors, so that fire originating in one
section could be kept from spreading further.
This is The third car-stable Gre we have had
in New York within four years, and we shall
have more of them so long rs the companies
build tinder-bOxes and store them with ma
terials almost rs combustible as kerosene.
4 second reflection not perhaps growing d.
rcctly out of this latest fire, Of which the
cause is unknown, but OF general application
at this season OF the year, is that special care
should be taken in lighting the first fires
of the autumn in furnaces and stoves
to see that there are no defects in
pipes and flues and that no cOmbustible
material is ia dangerous proximity to heated
surfaces. The first cold weather always makes
n long record OF fires in the newspapers, nine
tenths of which are due to carelessness in
failing to make sure that nothing is going to
be burned but the fuel put into the stoves and

subiucation, State rights, reconstruction, negro
suffrage, local self-goyernment, bayonet rule,
carpet-b aggery, fraud, imitation, Reputation
and free trade, they hit upon this last: thai
they are opposed to the spells system and Ia
favor of reforming the Civil Service. It's thin,
but all they can do. OF course they are op-
posed to the spois system. Not having any
spois, why shouldn't they BET And of conrsa
they are in favor of reforming the Civil Ser
vice. The outs always are in favor of reform
ing it by turning out the ms and putting them
selves in their places.
Ii il a good keynote to strike. There is only
this drawback to it They cannot succeed with
it unless they make people believe they are
dead in earnest about it, and so soon as they
make people believe they arc IN earnest, one
half of their own party lose all interest in poll
tics and give away the field. Still it is the
thing Ior them to do. And their eventual de-
feat will bring apa very interesting question,
TO wit: whether they were defeated because
the people did not trust them, or because their
own followers did.
