States needs "readjusting." The
Republican party needs it badly.
The great public debt of the United
States needs it. The tariff laws
need it. The banking laws need it.
The civil service needs it. Every
department at Washington from the
highest to the lowest need "read-
iusting." All the laws and that pol
lev Of the Federal Government
which have a tendency to make the
rich richer and the poor poorer need
to beToverhauled and readjusted in
the interest of the people. 1t may
belthat this party which has recent
ly sprung up in Old Virginia may
be the nucleus around which great
National Reform Party may yet
rally and bring about all the need
ed reforms in this Government.

one might retortshat it was measuI-

such fling would not be an answer.
We may be sorry for the young man

and party label on his back. Yes, we
can pity such an unfortunate, but we
cannot find it in our heart to retort on
him in kind the rude and crude notions
be voids in attacking everything mot

The truth is, young man, the journal
which is not in the fullest sense inde-
pendent of party directions lacks the

Not that newspaper should be col

would have it so grounded in right con.
victions that it would not vary from
them if all the politicians on earth de.
mandeG it should. All men naturally
gravitate to one or other of the great
parties, editors included. A private
citizen holds and exercises the right to
criticise his party leaders. Has an edi-
tor any less right in this regard than
other men But this is the lowest rea.

GUITEAC SENTENCED.

Ia the Criminal Court at Wash
ington last Saturday, Judge Cox
overruled Guiteaus motion for a
new trial, and pronounced the sent
enee of the court, that the assassin
should " be taken hence to the COM
mon Jail of the district from whence
you come, and there be kept in con-
fnement until Friday, the Both day
of June, 1882, that you be taken to
the place of execution within the
walls Of said Jail, and then and there.
between the hours of u a. m, and
, p. m, you be hanged by the neck
until you are dead, and may the
Lord haye mercy on your SOUL"
During the reading Guiteau stood
apparently unmoved and with his
gaze riveted on the judge; but when
the final words were spoken he
struck the table violently and
shouted:
"And may the Lord have mercy
on your soulI I'd rather stand
wheresI do than where that jury
does and where your honor does.
