THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.

The Republican party jnst at this
time is split into factions. Spells,
patronage and personal spite are
the cause of this internal strife,
while the uneartbipg of star route
pvttai frauds, fragrant thefts and
party corruption, has carried terror
into the ranks Of the truly loyal and
good, and il is admitted that the Re-
publican party has elected its last
President. The people are awaken
ing 10 the realization that their Of
fce>bolders are 10 collision with rings
Of thieves, who have plundered the
government, and off Of small salar
les grown immensely rich. The
system Of farming out public offices,
has become 30 thoroughly source OF
spoils and power, that to deprive
one of these old rascally ringsters,
like ConkIing, of finger 10 the
pudding, causes political party
fight, among the most prominent
Republican stalwarta, the like OF
which was never seen before. They
are rending one another like feroc,
ious wild beasts. The seeds of dis
sension sown will be Of such deep,
growth, as to engender frequent
descriptions and 6nal dethrone>
ment from power. The history Of
the Republican party is one of usur
patton, robbery, outrage and fraud,
and it deserves to die an ignominious
death.

MoNoPOLIEs.

As we attack mODopoliies and
Justly criticise the selfish feeling
which impels them to grasp so much
and give 80 little sometimes in re-
turn, let us not forget that we have
similar faults which sometimes crop
out into sadly disagreeable results
While pointing out the mote in an
enemy's eye, let us remember the
beam in our own, and prove the
honesty Of our purpose by the frank
mesa and caudor that sees its own
shortcomings as well as those of its
disagreeable neighbor.
The man who struts pompously,
berating all who venture to differ in
opinion, and hipgipg harsh remarks
about him with recklessness of self
ish self gloritication, is as much a
monopolist at heart as the most
grasping corporation in the land /;
aud had he the power would use it
with as little care for others. He
hat is selfish in little things would
be more 30 in great ones and the
spirit of noble generosity and true
manipess will declare itself at all
times and under all circumstances.
All men can be just, generous, kline,
true gentlemen.
There are many who think =
honesty and rudeRess are op
the same thing and who shows as
little Difference and respect to all
who dare differ with them in opinion
as do the monopoIis's themselves.
Such men may be honest, but
they are exceedingly disagreeable,
and like porcupines make prickly
neighbors for friends az we'll as foes.
To pick them up without being
punctured by some bsrbed point is
a moral impo'sihility, while love it,
self cannot embrace them without
danger of sudden and disagreesble
death. Of all monopolists, these
are the most uncomfortable and d'n>
gerous.

Lesdville three years ago was a
mining camp in which the rough ele-
ment Of the population was held 10
check rather by a wholesome dread
of lynch law than by the moral re
strain's and legal appliances of or
ganized society There could be no
more suggestive Illustration If the
progress that has been made since
the days of the mining camp. than is
found in the the picture of the High
School building, in the Lead vile
Herald, OF May l7th, which has just
been completed at cost of $40, 900
In architectural design and flash, as
we'll as in the completeness of its sp-
poiutments, ii will compare favoraby
with the best school houses in Bsl,i-
more, or in any other Eastern city
The log school house, which we are
accustomed 10 associate with from
tier civilization, had a brief exist
euce at Leadville, if, indeed, it was
ever bailt at sill. This marvellous
mining town seems TO have overiesp>
ed the ordinary processes and stages
of development, and to have burst
into a busy, prosperous, we'll organ
lied city, as il touched by the wand
Of 81 epcbspler.

THE REVISED rEsTAs6saq.

The press and pulpit of the coun-
try is engaged in discussing the mer~
it's of the revision of the New Testa-
ment. Doubts have been expressed
by the clergy men as to whether the
revision is sufficiently authorized
to warrant them in using it in their
pulpits. Such changes as disturb
the popular memory Of important
passages, will not be we'll received.
there is an impression, for instance
that the revisera had no more author
ity for striking out portion OF the
Lords Prayer than they would
have for rejecting the whole of tt
Then, there lie a prejudice against
tho revision of such book. The
people have been taught to believe 1t
already perfect, and are not pleased.
to hear it pronounced otherwise. =,
They are told that this is not transa
latiou, but a revision Of an old trans
Iation, and are apprehensive that the
~ocess Of revision is, consequently,
i flushed, and that 50 sooa

prseat rosis.oa is !iiousssss 4
another revision will be announced.
While some regard the revision
an AN Improvement and harmless in
it's effects, others doubt whether it is
calculated to advance the cause OF
Christianity, fearing that serious con-
ouences will result from such an up
setting of the popular belief of the
New Testament.

ANOTHER MEss OF CORRUPTION.

The Investigation eff the accounts

dian of tho treasury department, or
dered by Secretary Window, is de
velopiug ugly facts and involving
persons who have held high places.
Pitney's business is to buy everything
need in the treasury, including fur
niture, carpets, soaps, etc, and it is
ascertained that he has for six years
violated the law requiring them to
be purchased by contract from the
loves, bidder. He has bought from
frieuds and favorites without making
any contracts, paying them @hs'ev-
er they charged. No system Of
books or vouchers has been kept,
everything has been run loosely and
without any sort of business rules :
out sgeously exorbitsnt prices have
been paid, angling from thirty to fifty
per cent higher than ruling market
prices, and the difference between
market prices and those paid has
been allowed to Pitney by parties he
purchased from, in the way of goods
