The Murderer of Garfleld.-It is no
doubt to be regretted that people will in
.ist on hearing repeated the annsls oi
crime; but as long as the fatal fascination
prevails, it Is better that the story OF
criminal deeds should be recIted in the
spirit of history. Whoever will read such
a story should not fail to peruse Grid
paths Life and Trial Of Guitean," just
issued from the press Of Jones Brothers &
Co., of Cincinnati, Chicago, and Kansas
City. The work, without being needlessly
elaborate, embraces everything Of interest
connected with the trial OF the wretch
who killed the President. II is inthe
authors best vein. The book, in addition
to being published as separate work, Is
also issued as a supplement TO the "Life
and Work of Garfield" by the same auth
or. The latter book is thus swslled to a
very handsome illustrated volume OF 800
pages. although the publishers mako no
increase in the price.

The LATEST VERSION Of the little
interview between Don Cameron and
the Philadelphia business men is that he
did behave in somewhat pTOfane and
piratical manner, making violent alu-
siOns to plarks and powder magazines.
but that he had the tOOthache and so
was not responsible for his words and
actions. This version does not precisely
coincide with either of the earlier ones
to wit, (a) that no such interview took
place lb) that 1t took place but was
conducted in manner altogether Ches-
tertieldian Pickwickian-but il is likely
to oe very near the truth. Even his
worst enemies are beginning to feel that
some allowance is to be made for boss
who simultaneously discovers that a
croWbar has been inserted into the most
delicate portion of his cherished ina
chine" and feels the torture of a raging
tooth. And the great American people
will hail with thankfulness this valuable
and interesting addition to the too brief
list of maladies and accident available to
public men in difficulties, Malaria long
since came to be regarded with the sus-
picion which attaches to intoxication.
Mr., Blaine's endeavO to pOpulariZe the
sunstroke some years ago was a compar-
atiVe failure, being received with the ut
most iTreyelence though perpetrated
on Sunday and on church doorstep.
If we mistake not. The use of the sun
stroke, too, is so ciTcumscribed that it
can never command favor. It is not
possible to apply it except during the
MONDAY hours of midsummer, and It's
action is to render a man speechIess-
not to excuse his hasty speech. There
was also a creditable attempt made some
years ago to convert the honorable scars
received by an Ohioan doorkeeper in sin
gle combat with a buZZ-saw into profit
able wounds of an alleged Union sol
dier, but it failed Of its effect, as (Out-
side of Mr.. Logan, who might believe it
if the evidence in the FitZ John Porter
case proved that it was not true) nobody
could be found to believe that the rebels,
however short of ammunition they may
have been. ever took to firing sawmills
at our troops. The toOtbache. however.
is a convenient and comprehensive all
ment. 1t is in season all the year round,
and can be partaken of at any hour of
the twenty-fOur. When it takes hold OF
man it wOOs him to violent actions
and vehement speech, and there are few
persons who do not know how it is them
selves. When, therefore, Don Cameron
alleges that he had put toothache into
his mouth which stole away his brains,
his statement will be received with a
respect and sympathy which may even
melt the mind to credulity. For our
selves we are free to state that he seems
to have been afflicted with toOthacbe all
through the course of his political life.

The Republican party as 1t Is, and for
years has been, is foul disgrace upon
the country and curse to the people.
Rescued from its subseTviency to Cam
eronism, as projected by the Indepen-
dents, it would be less Yenal But we
look as vainly to that body as to the
Stalwarts for anything even remotely
approaching proof that the party has
not outlived its usefulness-that, wheth-
er ruled as at present, or purified by
the overthrow of the bosses, it can long
er be safely entrusted with the reins OF
government. The platform of the In
dependents and the utterauces of their
leaders are as barren of guarantee of re-
lief from the grave political ills which
afflict the country, as the meaningless
platitudes the Stalwarts resolve in their
conventions, indite for their organs aud
deciaim from their stumps.
What, IN brief, is the demand Of the
Independents Simply that the offices
shall be hereafter awarded to Republi-
cans who now fill them-and that the
practice of utilizing the public patronage
for the furtheTance of personal or parti-
san ends shall cease. Why, it is as clear
as the MONDAY sun, that but for the
public plunder thus manipulated the Re-
publican party would have been dead
and buried years ago, and remembered
now more vividly for the crimes of
which it has been guilty, than for any
virtues it ever de@eioped. The folly of
the South gave it victory in go. Moth
ing could have distured its supremacy
during the war. Nothing could have
maintained its ascendancy more than a
year or two after peace was declared,
save what is vulgarly but significantly
called "official pap.' Take away from
it now the support it receives from the
/ benefciarIes Of the thousands of Govern
( ment sinecures it has defied the cOnsti-
! tuition to create and robs the people to
maintain-the monies filched from Ma
/ tiOnal, State and municipal treasures
/ and expended TO uphold its venal press
/ and its corrupt ring organizations, aud
/ it will be swept away like chaff before
the wind.
/ The Cameron clique have no princi-
/ pies. This will scarcely be disputed, ,'ex-
/ cept perhaps by office-hOlders, or those
/ who hope to become oflice-holdeTs, thro'

Bon INGERsoLL delivered the Decor
alton day Grafton at the Academy Of
Music in the city of New York. Gen,
Grant presided. and Mr.. Arthur occu-
pied a seat on the stage. Beecher don t
seem to have been present, but Grants
friend, Rev. DR.. Newman, was on hand
and opened the exercises with prayer.
In referring to the civil war and the
courage, enthusiasm and devotion Of
the Union soldiers. Ingersoll spoke of
them as having fought, among other
things, 'for the destruction of slavery. ,
That was not the object Abraham Lin
coin declared the government had in
view in suppressing the rebellion. for
every intelligent man in the country
knows that he publicly avowed that his
sole purpose as President was to pre-
serve the Union. without slavery'' il
he could, but "with slavery If only by
that means the union of the States could
be saved. The destruction of slavery
was legitimate result of the war. but it
was not one Of the original purposes for
which it was commenced or Cor which
il was prosecuted. IngersolI knows this
bravoly, but it always suits him to dis
tort the plain facts of history Besides
this, every Northern man who enlisted
I'm the army would tell him that when
he did so it was not for the purpose of
putting down slavery. but for the pur-
pose declared by Lincoln of preserving
the Union as established by their fore
fathers. IngeTsOll may indOctrinate
some people with his notions about the
non-existence Of hell, but his bold as
sertion that the soldiers of the civil
war fought ''for the destruction of sla-
very'' is a total perversion Of the truth
Of history and will mislead no one who
is familiar with the events of the war,
up to September, 1862, Immediately af-
ter the battle of Anteitam, when Mr..
Lincoln undertook by his proclamation
to declare the slaves free.

The threatened great iron strike Of the
iron workers in Pittsburg and through
out the Western States was carried into
effect on yesterday week. How long it
will continue it is impossible to tell, as
the men are making arrangements to
hold out as !oIg as possible, and the
manufacturers declare their intention
not to yield TO the demand for an in
crease of wages, = careful estimate of
the number of strikers in the iron mills
at PhtSburg and all points west of that
city, fixes it at between forty-five and
fifty thousand, and the number of mills
closed at one hundred and and twenty
nine. Other classes of laborers and es-
pecialy coal miners, have been forced
to quit work by the stike. 80 that the to-
tai number of all classes now idle will
not fall much short Of seventy-fVe thou
sand. all Of whom are daily losing in
wages at least twohundred thousand dol
lars. A redeeming feature Of the strike
is that nowhere has any violence taken
place, with the exception Of some riot
GUS proceedings in the outskirts of Chi
cago.s

BRADY. DORSEY AND .sTHE PARTY >

The prosecution in the Star-route ca
ses behave as if it really meant business.
Indictments have been drawn that Will
Eold water the preparation OF the cas-
es seems to have been industriously and
thoroughly done and there is certainly
no sign in the opening address OF Mr..
Bliss of collusive prosecution.
l. has been rather more than whisper
ed for some time that President Arthur.
having seen the hopelessness of attain
ing a second term by the help of Dorsey
and Brady, or loaded with their mis-
deeds, has determined to purge himself
and the Stalwart section of the party of
them and their words, as part Of his
training for 1894. He may succeed. by
abandoning them to the law, in getting
them taken out of politics and put into
prison. But it is entirely impossible for
him to disinfect the Republican party
or any section Of it from the odium that
these men have brought upon it.
That these men were public plnnder-
ers was notorious two years ago. Legal
proof has been adduced within the last
three months, but it has not strengthen.
ed the moral case against them. That
a man is generally believed to be thief
is not legal reason for putting him in
/ prison ; but it is reason for not giving
( him any public trusts. Yet the Repub-
/ llcans kept Brady in the pOstoffice de-

was, and the Republicans put Dorsey at

A JURY was obtained in the Star
route cases on yesterday week, and the
trial may be said to be fairly under way.
Judge Wylie gave notice to the counsel
engaged on both sides that he intended
getting through with the cases by the
9TH Of July, even if he had to hold a ses-
sion every night. No sooner had the
jury been sworn than the report was
sent all over the country that two, if not
three. of their number will never agree
to a verdict Of guilty. We suppose that
this is a purely sensational story, and
that if the evidence adduced supports
the charge the verdict will be in accord
ance with it. If the art of fixing
or packing jurie5 was as well under
stood in Washington as it was at one
time in New York, and as it still is to d
certain extent in Philadelphia, the re-
suit might be as rumor forecasts, but we
see no reason for doubling the integrity
Of the jury in this instance.

DURING the last Presidential cam
paign a number Of our iron manufacture
ers volunteered to assure their employees
and the public that if Hancock was elec-
ted the mills would close for want Of
business, the iron trade would be ruined
and of course the workingmen would be
without employment and reduced to
beggary, Hancock was not elected,
mills are closed for want of orders. the
tariff has not been reduced or disturbed,
one hundred thousand men are without
work who have been engaged in this in
dustry with no immediate prospects Of
the mills resuming or the trade reviv-
ing. It was not honest or decent in
manufacturers to predict ruin in case
the Democratic party came into power,
but they knew it was a potential party
cry to help the Republicans and would
succeed in confusing thousands of their
men as to the real condition of affairs,
Perhaps these people viii now realize
that panic and depression in trade are
not dependent upon political parties, and
will come no matter who is President,
but it will not hush the demagogues who

GUITEAU's counsel, Charles 5. Reed,
presented a petition on Friday last to the
Supreme Court of the District Of Colum-
bia. asking for a rehearing OF the case
on purely technical grounds, the princi-
pie one being shat the Indictment alleg-
es that the death of President Garfield
took place in Washington, whereas it
really took place in New Jersey. Mr..
Reed supported the petition in speech
Of considerable length. The Court rem
dsred its decision on Monday last, re-
fusing to reopen the case, for the reason
that they have exhausted their powers
upon it that they have heard it patient
ly and fairly, and that a reargument
would praduce no other conclusion than
that arrived at, We suppose that this
is the last we shall hear Of this case in
the Courts during the three weeks yet to
which GuiteaU's life is limited.

MICHAEL DAvITT AND JOHN DILLON
left Ireland yesterday for the United
States, and expect to reach Boston in
time to attend the centennial celebration
in that city of Irish Independence, which
will be held on Friday and Saturday Of
next week. Their stay in this country
will not extend beyond two weeks.
"Irish Independence" or, in other
words, an Independent Irish Legislature
was brought about mainly by the efforts
Of Henry Graytau and lasted only eigh-
teen years-from 1882 to 1SOO-when
British gold, placed in the hands Of re-

Of England and Ireland. In a speech
over the fall Of the legislative iudepen-

THE Harrisburg Patriot. in an arti-
Gle on "The Democratic Prospects" in
this State at the November election,
says:
The lesson Of the past should be sufficient
to teach the Democracy that organization is
the great essential to success. The ticket to
be nOminnted on the 28th inst. therefore,
should be constituted not only with view
of presenting candidates of recognized fit
ness for the respective offices which they are
expected to fill, bat with an eve to the abili-
ty Of the candidates to organize the party
align It's voters in solid phalanx, and, in
short to assure the casting and counting Of
every possible Democratic vote in the State.
1t Is plain, therefore, that the candidate for
Governor ought to be no mere figure-head,
however respectable, but a practical, level
headed, energetic man, who will be able to
SuperinteHd his canvass in person and at the
same time to cope with Messrs. Beaver and
Stewart on the stump. The other candi-
dates should be persons well qualified for
the places for which they are named and
able and willing to perform their due share
OF an active and thorough canvass The
convention can have no difficulty in finding
material for such ticket Indeed it can
hardly 90 wrong in making its selections
from the list of eminent names already sug-
gested for its consideration.
The platform to be adopted by the con-
venton should have for its most prominent
features the overthrow of the one-man pow
or IN the political affairs of the State with It's
Inherent cOTruptiOus the abolishment of
sineeures and useless offices and the obser-
vance OF strict economy in the expense of
conducting the State government. As the
Democratic party refuses TO tolerate any
bosses" of its own, il can consistently
make the issue against the ''bOssism'' which
has suppressed the voice of the majority Of
the Republican party and yet the agency of
that party controls the affairs of the State
And, by the way, it will be able to present
this issue all the more consistently and for
chilly if it shall decline to be dictated to by
certain self-styled ''independent'' journals
which are in the habit of denOuncing ''boss-
ism" without stint and yet seek to boss
the Democratic party by prescribing who
shall and who shall not be its candidates and
even go so far as to threaten to support the
candidate OF the t'bOss" in case the Demo
Gratis make certain nomination. The bat
tle-cTy will be"DOwn with One Man Power, -
but no party can take up slogan like that
which permits itself to be caiOled or fright
ened-by a would-be ''boss" who sits on the
fence and swaggers and threatens that chaos
shall come again if his wishes are not re-
spected. Let the party be true to itself and
to those who deserve its honors and it will go
to the people on the issue against the person
al rule of Cameron meriting and most pro-
bably commanding success.
