Proposed Revolution in Chihuahu

LIUpUStu hctOlutAOu III OulnuaAua'
Under the caption of "a Strange
Story" the st. Louis Republican tells
gerry strange story indeed. 1t seems that
while a prominent official of New
Mexico was visiting the capital of the
State of chihuahua, State official OF
high rank made him a proposal to revo-
lutionize Chihuahua, carry it out Of the
Mexican Union and declare it a republic.
The high official" was, of course, to
be President of the new nation. After
a while the new republic was to be
annexed to the United States, and the
President would become Senator from
Chihuahua. The gentleman from New
Mexico declined to enter into the
scheme, Notwithstanding the "high
officials" wife implored his assistance
in the most pathetic terms The story,
remarks the New Orleans Democrat, may
be true, and probably is, but we think
the gentleman from New Mexico acted
wisely in not meddling in the affair.
There is but one man in Chihuahua
Colonel Terazzas-who possesses suffici-
ent influence over his countrymen to carry
into effect such scheme, and even he
would most likely fail, should he be
reckless enough to attempt 1t. But that
he would not, and no other Mexican
could, is the firm conviction Of those
who know him best.

If the cultivation and consumption of
fruit in the country continues to go on
for the next generation at the rate shown
in the last, Americans will not only be
a nation of fruit eaters, but will be able
to present a greater variety Of choice
and desirable fruits than can be found
in any other large country on the globe
At a meeting Of the American POmOlOgi-
cal Society in Boston last week, the
venerable Marshall P. Wilder, himself a
veteran in the work of fruit growing. il
Illustrated the progress we have made by
stating that many members of the society
remember when the only strawberry we
had was the wild strawberry of the
fields; now there are 400 varieties that
have been cultivated.

New York city has seen many unprin-
cipled ideals" between the Republican
party and Tsmn4sny Hall, but never
such brazen, unblushing one as that by
which the alliance controls seven-eighths
of the Election Inspectors at the coming
election. The Republicans first take one
half, then one-fourth is given to Tam
many, a Republican tender, and then
one eighth to Irving Hall, a Tammany
tender. Thus the Republicans control
seven -eighths of the Inspectors. while
the Embossed and unpurchasable Democ-
racy are allowed one-eighth. Under such
conditions, fair election and an honest
count will not be had, if the interests of
the Republican party should demand
frauds. Even the New York Post rep. }
is obliged to confess, as follows: "Un-
fortunately, this is not the first alliance
between Republican and Tsmmany lead
ers, but the contract has seldom been so
open and blushing"

The Blue and the Gray at Chatta-


The cordial greeting accorded to
Union soldiers at Chattanooga by the
whole population of that historic
Southern town. and especially by the
ex-Confederates. ELECTS from the Cincin-
natl Gazette the following comment;
The meeting Of the Society Of the Army of
the Cumberland at Chattanooga was more
than a shaking Of hands over the bloody
and Confederate over the closed and over
grown chasm; the Confederate enthusiast
caily declaring loyalty TO the nation no less
than that OF those who fought for the nag;
Offering the hand Of friendship in pledge Of
fidelity to q common country; and, in token
thereof, tremendously joining the national
soldiers in raising the national flag. Naturally
there is an exaltation Of feeling on such an
occasion, but It does not settle back to the old
plane. and the meeting will have beneficial
influence in extinguishing the hates of the war
and in breaking down the sectional line"
This reads very well but will the
fraternal and forgiving spirit SO con-
spicuously manifested at the meeting of
the Army of the Cumberland outlive the
occasion that called it forth The st.
Louis Republican remarks with truth :
I'VE have had Just such touching scenes
before, but the sentiment has almost
always proved merely a thing of the
moment with the Republicans that take
part. They talk of forgetting and for
giving, clasp their Southern brothers
hands with warm friendship; but the
first campaign that follows they are sure
to raise the old cry of rebel and treason.
When there is no question of politics in
volved the average Republican is almost
always quite willing to believe in the
loyalty of the ex-Confederates and their
sincere devotion to the Union, but when
the campaign opens every ex-Confederate
in the land who does not promise to vote
the Republican ticket is denounced as an
unreconstructed rebel. Instead of pledg-
ing themselves to fraternity and brotherly
love then our Republican friends talk of
nothing but plots, conspiracies and new
rebellions, giving their whole ingenuity
to the Matching OF rancorous lies about
the South"

Now it is set down as very strange
coincidence that comet appeared just
as Garfield died. Aside from the fact
that it is not at all certain that a new
comet has come in sight, which might
interfere slightly with the strangeness Of
this coincidence, it should be remem-
bered that, as the world goes, it would
be very hard for a comet to appear with
out its appearance being cOincident with
the death of somebody. Such coinci-
dences are matters of course. and the
absence Of them is what would be
strange.

After all the discussions as to where
and how Guiteau can be tried for the
murderous blow struck in Washington,
followed by death in New Jersey, this
remains: He must be tried by the local
law Of the place where the crime was
committed, but subject to the Constitu-
ton Of the United States, which is the
supreme law Of the land. This last has
the following well known article: Gin
all criminal prosecutions the accused
shall enjoy the right of a speedy and
public trial by an impartial jury of the
State and district wherein the crime shall
have been committed"

The people of the plucky little State
of New Jersey have gone into sugar
raising with that vim and energy which
is so characteristic of those exemplary
citizens when visions of standard silver
dollars crush bright DER their sight
AS the average return Of farm lands in
New Jersey is not more than fifteen dol
lars per acre, the farmers think that sorg-
hum planting will net them at least
thirty dollars. The firm Of John Hill
gert's Sons, at an expense Of $50, 900,
has erected the necessary works to con-
vert the cane into sugar. To induce the
husbandmen of the locality to plant sorg-
hum, they offer premiums for the best
ten acres. etc. The farmers of Cape
May intend to enter heartily into the new
industry, and say it will not be long be-
fore New Jersey will be ranked among
the principal sugar producing Localities
of the world.

The new President is not an advocate
Of competitive examinations Of appli-
cants for appointments. In his letter of
acceptance last year, he declared that
the system exalts "mere educational and
abstract tests above general business
capacity and even special fitness" He
also declared. in substance, that Federal
officials should be perfectly free to take
any part in politics so long as they prop
erly discharge their official duties. On
both these points, he is at issue with the
so-called civil Service Reformers,"
although in full harmony with common
sense.

The New Orleans Riedyune. in some
remarks upon the movement by the Eng
lish cotton manufacturers to protect
themselves against corners, says: Both
producer and manufacturer are inter
ested in preventing those violent huctua-
tons which have now become perennial,
growing out of purely speculative
transactions, and we doubt not that
means will be devised to check them. &"
The Memphis Appeal predicts that this
means will take the form of direct pur
chase by the manufacturer unless "fu-
lures" are discouraged and put an end to.
Prudent men give heed to the mutterings
of the storm and prepare for it.

A New York publishing house
(Charles Scribner's Sons) is about to
commence the publication of really
great and important work. "The Cam
paigns of the War Of the Rebellion" will
be issued in several volumes, each cam
paign written by one who took part in
it. 1t is understood that the respective
writers of the various articles have been
long engaged in preparing for and execu-
ting their tasks. This is the true way to
accumulate material for history, and there
are enough of those who are most in
terested now living to correct errors and
compel a general adherence to facts.

Boston Post: However remote from
Washington Grants business may be. he
is sure to turn up there like Jack in the
box in every emergency. Leaning on
the arm Of Grant, the new President pro-
ceeds to take the oath, and while shaking
hands with Blaine, Grant revolves in his
mind how well my old Secretary Of
State will fill the place. Should Arthur
die before the Senate is convened, Grant,
with his accustomed modesty, would
probably call them together"

While President Garfield was with his
sick wife at ElberOn, he declined an
agents persuasions to insure his life on
the ground that he could not afford to
pay the premium. After much discus
sion, however, he finally consented to
take out policy for $4,000, the agent
agreeing to take two notes for the pre-
MUM, which amounted to over $500.
Neither has yet been paid, but the com
pany has forwarded to Mrs. Garfield its
check for $40, 900, and will collect the
notes from the estate.

Gen. Garfield was President only six
months and fifteen days Three years,
five months and half remain for Gen.
Arthur's incumbency. But of General
Gsrfeld's term, two months and twenty
days were passed on bed Of suffering,
during which the only official act he per
formed was putting his signature to an
extradition warrant. All the Presidents
who have died in office have died in the
early part of the term. Gen. Taylor
lived sixteen months after his inaugura-
ton, leaving two thirds of the term to
be filed by Fillmore. Abraham Lincoln
was assassinated one month and eleven
days after his second Inauguration, and
Andrew johnson, therefore, held the
Office three years, ten months and half.
Gen. Harrison's term Of power was the
briefest of all. He died just one month
after his Inauguration day. Tyler was
three years and eleven months in Office.
