that it be, by you reversed. 1t is clearly

1T is said that President Garfield
knew of the designations of Sena-
tors Conkling and Platt before they
were announced 10 the senate, and
the extraordinary statement is made
that even a cabinet meeting was
considering them before the intelli-
gence nghtfully belonged to the
President or to anybody else, except
Governor Cornell, of New York. 1t
is said the private telegraph opera
tor of the President listened to the
designations as they passed over the
wires, having their connection with
the White House, and that the Pres
ident was thus informed, even before
the Transmission to Governor Cor
nell was complete. Can it be posi-
BILE that the President exercises such
presumptionP Can he tap the wires
at will, and thus know the secrets
that law makes inviolate? The charge
is a grave one, and its truthfnlness
ought to be verified. The Czar of
Russia may do such things, in self-de-
fense. but If the President of the
United States do so, it is simply inn
pertinent and lawless curiosity. 80

THERE is something very curious
about these disagreements between
Republicans at Washington, and the
Garfield Conklmg fiasco may have
much greater significance than ap-
pears upon the surface. President
Garfield would have avoided the
misunderstanding with Conkling
had he dared to oppose Blaine, and
it is whispered around now that he
is perfectly willing for the star route
Investigations to end, but Post
master-General James and Attorney
General MacVeagh have engaged
in them and it may be that
they can not the arrested. 1t
is a notable fact that these two
cabinet officers have fallen some
what into disfavor with the Presi-
dent, and it would not be public
surprise at any time for both
officials to leave their places to
others. The star route strikers say
openly that MacVeagh is doomed to
early ruin. They say he will not
resign of his own accord, and that
their energies are now to be direct
ed to getting him out of his position
by force. The star route ringsters
have made up their minds that moth
ing but peremptory dismissal by the
President will drive him from Office.
The fact is, MacVeagh is engaged in
a resolute, unrelenting pursuit of
the star route swindlers, and the
trimmers' cry of Fdon't hurt the
partyp does not scare him at
all. lie hasn't any particular
affection for The party mana
gers, and no entangling allI-
ances' such as mar the usefulness
of the President and Blaine and
other cabinet officers. SO far as
party interests are concerned, Mac
Veagh is "a bull in china shop )"
he appears to be Indifferent to the
fact that the inquiry now pending is
involving a large number OF the
hitherto active friends and support
ers of the Secretary of State, who
were his efficient workers in the far
West during his two campaigns for
the presidential nomination. The
Acknowledgement is equally indiffer-
ent to Dorsey's threats of making
use of lot of papers and evidence
in his possession, which he asserts
will prove injurious to the Presi-
dent.

THE Philadelphia Bulletin says
Garfield was saved from most em-
barrassing plight by the Senate's re-
lection of Chandler. 1t was no
secret that Wayne McVeagh would
have instantly quit his post had
Chandler been thrust upon him.
And does the act of the Senate in re-
jecting Chandler's nomination raise
Mr.. Garfield in the estimation ofthe
Attorney General? The President
knew Chandler as we'll as anybody
knew him, and he knew that to place
him in office would be disgrace to
the country, from which it was
saved by Democratic body.

NEWS comes from the New Pallas

oneto believe a great popular in
surrection may be anticipated any

resulted in large number of men
taking refuge in a castle, where they

hold, but the priests interfered and
prevented bloodshed, and the plan

sorted to. The populace of all the

THE New York. Sun insists that it

THE New York. Sun insists that it
is false idea TO suppose Senator
Conkling resigned simply to encom-
pass the defeat OF Dir. Robertson,
and that he had no reason to believe
his withdrawal would result in any
thing of the sort. His act, it is
alleged, is not the beginning of the
end so much as it is the end of
Conkling's support of the Republi-
can party, as now organized. Mr..
ConkIing is done with the Republi-
can party as represented by
President Garfield, his eabi-
net and his following in the sem
ate. There can be little doubt, says
the ISlla, that Mr.. COnkling from the
time that 1T was announced Mr..
Blaine was to be Secretary of State
realized that, ,soener or later, the Re-
publican party must go to pieces.
Mr.. Conkling knew that it was the
intention of Mr.. Blaine to crush him,
and he has said that he was
impressed with the fact that only
the most skillful guiding could save
the party from inevitable disaster.
His close friends represent that it has
been his desire to stave this off as
far as possible, and that he hoped
the nomination of Robertson would
be either defeated or withdrawn, SO
that the inevitable might be de-
layed. Mr.. Conkling told his sena-
torial colleagues, in caucus, sope
days before he resigned, that
this was probably the last cau-
Gus of the Republican party, as at
present led both by the administra-
ton and by the administrations fol-
lowing in the Senate, which he
should ever attend. They now un-
derstand what he meant. They see
Mr.. COnkling believes that the day
of the Republican party is oyer, and
their alarm, as well as that of the
President and his supporters, is be-
cause they now realize that the
power they have so long used in
spirit of oppression and injustice is
slipping away from them forever.
1t has taken twenty years of base
misrule for the climax of dissolu-
ton TO be reached, but it has now
come, and in such way. as the peO'
pie of the North must be led to in
quire into real causes and effects dis
tracing the country. They may now
see the truth, when the past warning
of the "Brigadiers," who know SO
well how to appreciate good govern
ment, was always accepted as an
effort to destroy truth and to arouse
new and formidable rebellion.
The fight is alone in the camp of the
enemy, and it is to be fruitless one
for the mastery, in which the mas
ters will certainly go down.

The general impression among
English sclfblarsrand the public con-
corning the revised Bible is one of
dissatisfaction. The London Stand
ard says that very many of the al
terations have been approved for
reasons of. mere literary criticism,
and that the.Tevisers have. by mend
ing the English and improving the
grammar in passages which have
taken deep root in the hearts of the
people, robbed the revision of its
true value.
