The insecurity of life and property in
many parts of Turkey has given rise to cor
respOndence with the Porte, looking partic-
ularly to the better protection Of American
missionaries in the empire. The condemn
ed murderer of the eminent missionary, DIR.
Justin w. Parsons, has not been executed
although this Government has repeatedly
demanded it.

In the last report of the Secretary of

called to the fact that S464, 651, 05O in five
per cent. bonds and $203, 572, $50 In six per
cent. bonds would become redeemable dur

ize the refunding of those bonds at q low
rate of interest. The bill for
refunding having failed to become

Treasury, in April last, notified the holders
of $l95, 500, 400 six per cent bonds then

hdlng borrowers; and then commenced collect
ing taxes to pay them. On the objection Of
taxpayers the Supreme Court tramped this
scheme under foot. The Judges said that the
constitutional prohibition executed itself, and
was directly obligatory upon the city that the
city could not incur in any manner debt be-
yond the limit, but the device of temporary
certificates was equally prohibited with bonds
or warrants such as are usually issued ; that
necessity, however imperative, of providing
money for the purpose in view could not sus-
tain debt incurred in defiance of the prohibi-
ton and that even an actual lender upon such
certificates could not be allowed to enforce
them, for he ought to have known that they
were forbidden. They declared that the clear
and unmistakable purpose of the restriction
was to effectually protect persons residing in
municipalities from the abuse of municipal
credit, and the consequent oppression of bur-
densome If not ruinOus, taxation and that this
expression of the will of the people must be
obeyed by courts and by municipalities in its
full spirit and meaning. The Iowa Supreme
Court has had occasion to render like deci-
sion.

We feel authorized to predict that Mr. Tlden will
feel less and less like running for the Presidency i'm
1884 IN proportion President Garfield advances
toward recovery.
One would have thought that their experience
with the Morey letter would have shown the Demo-
Gratis the folly of trying to make forgery useful
political weapon. But the Democrat pure and sim
pie never learns anything. The Virginia Bourbons
have issued bogus letters which they are try
lug TO make the voters of Virginia believe were
written by General Blair the opposition candidate
for Attorney-General. Like the Morey letter these
documents are chiefly notable for bad grammar and
bad spelling General Blair has made affidavit that
he did not write he letters did not dictate them,
ana an has no sympathy with their sentiments. Yet
tDe whole Democratic press of Virginia insists that
ne ma write the letters and. as in the Mercy case,
eminent Democrats are found who are willing TO say
they think the handwriting is General Blair's It's
queer party. 1t has firm belief that lying and
forgery are more to he relied npon for political sue
cess than hon, sty ana uprighness in public affairs
better.
The Ohio Democrats seem to be depending en-
tirely upon BoOkwalter's whiskey and money bar.
relS to carry the State, if indeed hey expect TO
carry II at all. They have announced no speakers
ana nave called no meetings. There is said to be a
great lack OF Democratic orators who are willing to
take the field Why import some from this part
Oh the countryf 1t would be pleasant task for
ask aus cltlZens 10 vote for a man who became
Democrat III order that he might call the President
a perJurer and a liar"
1t begins to look as if Mr. Wolfe's candidacy in
Pennsylvania~would disappear almost entirely be-
fore election day Senator Davies. Mr.. Wolfe's can
didate before the Convention saws he has made a
mistake whose principal effect will be to make his
own party ridiculous.
MI l1lden should explain to his pupil Boolkwalter
that when he advised "still hunt he did not
mean a whiske y-stili hunt.
There is no Presidential inability in the saving of
a million and half in the postal service
The road toward Democratic harmony in this CITY
grows no smoother very fast. Tammany remarks
through one of its organs, that the Reorganized
Democracy is simply faction of the most unmiti-
ga ed and offensive sort" This is pcrhaps a rcioin-
der To iheUortds excessively observation that
an the heas IN the party had congrcgated in the
laInlnany wing. The cOntroY rsy is highly enter
tanning one. Let II be continued.
