EDITORIAL NOTES.

THERE isn't good melting heat for the
proposed Fusion in Maine this year.
IT isn't an absolutely certain thing that
the enormous immigration of thisyear
prove an unmiXed blessing
THE settlement of the Sprague estate
may be recorded in the last chapter of
the history of mundane matters.
IsN'T there robust representative of
the Northern Pacific land monopoly on
the Pennsylvania Democratic ticket?
For synonyms of Democratic" when
written with big d, it is always safe to
write aristocratic" and monopolistic"
ALMOST every "revenue reformer" is in
favor of liberal protection for the industry
in which his friends or hackers are inter-
ested.
THERE is no law that compels Demo-
cratic politician to be demagogue, but
custom has acquired almost the force of q
statute.
A PROHIBITION amendment to human
nature would advance the temperance
cause much more rapidly than any
| change in State constitutions.
TIE British government is in state of
advanced preparation to exert something
decidedly more vigorous than "moral
influence" in Egyptian affairs.
A FIERY Southern editor glories in the
fact that Guiteau was "not a Bourbon"
Well, WELL the structure of his infamy
has heretofore been supposed complete.
IT is an awful and irremediable
blunder when lynchers string up the
wrong man, as the cheerful telegraph
occasionally charges them with having
done.
IT can't be denied that the late G. ].
Guiteau was q boon to neutral editors.
He was the first and only man of whom
they ever spoke without tremulous hes
itancy.
Mr.. WuITTHoRNE seems determined
that call the world and the rest of man
kind" shall, by-aud-by, begin to sus-
pect that he really does not love Mr..
Robeson.
A NUMBER of Connecticut ladies have
just received the degree of A. NJ. The
Connecticut woman is generally master
OF good many arts that are far beyond
the average man.
IF the counsel of the Malley boys are
to be relied on, those two young men are
so truly good that it is strange they did
not 1olloW EnOcn ana EllJanJ instead OF
being arraigned for murder.
The conference at Constantinople is
progressing almost as rapidly as NJ. de
Lesseps Panama Canal. 1t is consoling
to remember that eternity is boundless
when we consider how inadequate is
time for the disposal of these matters.
THERE is no occasion for Congress to
hurry. The more carefully and thor
for the general public, as well as for the
party that will be held responsible for
all the acts and omissions of the session.
THE estate of Vanderbilt is now esti-
mated at S300000,000 and growing inn
mensely. One thousand men, earning a
dollar day each, could earn such a prop
erty as that in the working days of one
thousand years. BY the way, who earned
Yanderbilt's millions?

Parliamentary Lynch Law.

The British House of Commons has
undoubtedly the right, in common with
all parliamentary bodies, to so conduct
its proceedings as to reach final vote
on measure without the consent of n
factious minority. If the great majority
felt constrained to abolish the English
constitution so far as Ireland was con-
cerned, the stroke would have been
rather in theory than in fact, for when
had poor old Ireland any rights which
an English Parliament felt bound to re-
spect? But as one Of her martyred sons
had done before receiving sentence of
death, so on Saturday morning last she
had q right to "insist on all the forms +"
before twenty-five Of her representatives
were driven ignominiously from their leg
islative seats. Instead Of respecting forms
of law, however, among the sixteen mem
bers first suspended for obstructing the
annihilation bill were included four who
had not been present during the entire
night session, and could not therefore,
by any possibility have participated in
the obstruction complained of. This
being called TO the attention Of the
House, the four names of the absentees
were not stricken out, but the body of
the resolution was SO amended rs to ac-
'cuse them of having obstructed the bill
at prerious stage Of its consideration. A
little while after this nine more members
were suspended for obstruction, two of
whom had not uttered a word during
the proceedings. A Liberal member an
nounced his purpose to raise future in-
quiry as to the regularity of these pro-
ceedings, England is drifting into
despotism.

Tho Rirht of Ronrescntotiop.


The contested cases are, it is under
stood, to be brought into the House this
week. The best preliminary to success
will be the righteous action of the House
in these cases. Ifa Republican majority
there should fail to vote beaten men out
and chosen men in, or If it should fail to
order new election when the facts de-
mand such action, then we can hardly
hope TO rally Republican votes during the
coming campaign. If our party lacks the
energy or the inclination to avail itself
of the results of elections already had,
it will bruise the spirit and quench the
ardor of its friends in elections to be held.
Mr.. Smalls is entitled to his seat. Mr..
Buchanan is entitled to another race
with Manning, rs no result was legally
ascertained in his district. Mr.. Shelly
has been found lacking good title. His
contestant is dead. He must go back
and try again. He is sound on the tariff.
Perhaps that might give him more Re-
publican votes than he would lose Demo-
cratic by ignoring the Bourbon machine,
which creaks so badly. Mr.. Lee will, it
is said, be reported entitled to the
seat held by Mr.. Richardson. The
decision of these questions isnot optional
with the Republicans. The contestants
are not private claimants; they are rep
resentatives, in some cases, and in others
they have shown that their antagonists
are not. The Republican party cannot
long survive the Indifference or neglect
by the Republican House of the right Of
representation. The duty of Republican
members now is to come here and stay
until these cases are decided.

The wiEe's Last Kiss.

About month ago A. B. Camp, accompanied
by his wifo and child, came from San Francisco
for the purpose of taking out soapstone. Last
month his wife visited him at his work. They
were about starting for their cabin, n short dis
tance away. Mr.. Camp was about TO enter the
tunnel to secure shovel which he desired to take
with him, when his wife remarked: Never
mind, I'll get it; you take the child As she
around and said al Kiss Inc first" The husband
did so, and she started for the tunnels mouth
again, bat Just before she reached it she again
once more" Her husband complied for the sec.
ond time and then she started for the tunnel.
She had Just reached the entrance when the mass
of rocks and dirt above gave way, burying the un-
fortunate woman in the debris and causing her
instant death. The father and child escaped un-
hurt-San Benito Advance.

An Untrusl, Killed.

An elaborate lie without n vestige of truth to
give II color originated last week with Baltimore
paper and was copied extensively. The lie says
that Mrs. General Grant accompanied by Mrs.
Logan entered a railway car on the way from New
York to Long Branch and Mrs. Logan, remarking
that all the seats the shady side of the We're
taken, said in loud voice, "If these people only
knew who you were, Mrs. Grant, they would
quickly rise to give you the best seat" tSc. This
Intricate untruth has q few points against IT,.
First, it never occurred. Second, it never could
are incapable of such vulgariy. Third, Mrs.
Logan has not been outside of Washington this
summer. The imaginative reporter who got 1t up
had better put ice ON his head and think out sOme-
thing else,

THE snarling, swapping assassin who co uld take
from Garfield only his life, has gone to his ac
count The baflled faction whose angry rawlings
prompted the assassin to his crime still remain TO
snap and snarl at Gar6elds memory.-New York
Tribune, Jmy2
Such is the Tribune'S contribution to the
cause of harmony and conciliation. It's
readers will wonder whether its "angry
rawlings" are intended to prompt the as
sassination Of any member of what it
terms " the bafiled faction" The Tribune
is far behind the times. The American
people are not going to spend the years
to come in going over the unhappy diff
ferences of 1880. And who is swapping or
snarling at Garfeld's memory The
Tribune may desire to see some such
cause for exalting itself, but it will find
no one to take up it's gage.

THE appointment of ex-senator West
to the District Commission brings into
our municipal government a most able
and sas.cious man. He will have views
and he will impress them upon others
He has had experience in public affairs,
and has in all positions been power.
He came into the city as a Senator from
Louisiana eleven years ago. Since the
expiration of his term in 1877 he has
been resident of this city, having Sc.
lected it as his home. He is gracious
and courtly in manner, and will be per.
sonaly popular with the people.

Texas.

2 The political campaign in Texas opened
on Thursday last. A State convention of
the Greenbackers met at Fort Worth and
adopteda platform arraigning the Bourbon
State administration for subsidy legisla-
ton, for lack of provision for free schools,
and other shortcomings. An effort was
made to defeat the plans for the campaign
by disturbance, and also by the nomina-
ton of q full ticket, in order to disaffect
the Republicans, who favor Liberal cam
paign. This was defeated, and nothing
was done with reference to candidates
beyond recommending G.. w. Jones, the
Greenback member of Congress, for
governor, and leaving the formation of
ticket with the committees of the sew
eral political elements opposed to Bour-
bonism. 1t appears likely that the Re-
publicans will indorse Jones, and that
the committee of that party, with the
Greenback committee and any Inde-
may be formed hereafter, will unite
in the campaign for the redemption
of the State from Bourbon misrule.
Representative Jones is q man of
sterling character and a high order of
ability. He is respected for his patriotic
purposes and his recognized integrity.
He will make a thorough canvass, and to
him will rally Republicans, Independ-
ents, Unionists, Wings, Houston men,
and Greenbackers. Whenever the anti
Bourbons of Texas realize their numeri-
,cal strength they will carry the State.
They have the power. This may be the
year.

to think of the advantage of abating the
fury of faction, and of joining together
for good work The Republican party,
instead of being divided, and thus invit-
ing its enemies to conquer, can by unit
ing bring to its aid in the suppression of
Bourbonism thousands of good and true
