If the democratic party improves
its opportunities it may elect pres
ident in 1884 without any trouble.
If, on the contrary, it abuses its
privileges, the prestige it now enjoys
will not last, and the chances OF
success will be inextricably compli-
Gated. The best thing for the dem
ocraic editor to do is to devote his
energies to broad and enlightened
solution of ISIS ues as they arise; to a
candid, honest, courageous criticism
of demagogy wherever manifested
to the earnest and conscientious
support of those measures in con-
gress, that are demanded in the in.
ierests of better government. In
this way he may serve not only hi:
party but his country best. This is
q far more enlightened course thar
in the vain forecasting of presiden
tial tickets.-Madison Democrat.

A HAPPY NEW YEAR.

Before another issue of The Dem
ocrat the New Year viii have dawn
ed upon us. The days of old 'S2
are almost numbered = eventful
days, during which great changes
have taken place. A great political
revolution has occurred. and its les
SONS are SO plain that he who runs
may read. Demagogues have been
taught that this is government OF
the people and that true representa-
tives of the people shall hereafter
administer its affairs. Political
bosses are of the past and the New
Years bells ring in a better and
brighter political era.
1t is the part of wisdom to dwell
upon the past only so far as we do
SO for the purpose of using the
lessons which its events teach for
our present and future guidance.
The duty of the citizen is plain. 1t
is no idle dream that ours is a popu-
lar government, and that when
rightly administered, is the best
government upon earth. 1t can
only be rightly administered when,
in the spirit of it's founders, we
choose for our leaders men who
represent the honor, virtue and pat
riotism Of the nation. Let the
people do this and all will be well.
Parties will then divide upon ques-
tons of government and not over
the honors and spoils of office. The
old order of things will then give
place to the new and wiser and
purer government will be the result.
Let the New Years BELLS
Ring out slowly dying cause,
And ancient forms of party strife;
Ring in the nobler modes of life,
With sweeter manners, purer laws
ring out false pride in place and blood
The civic SANDER and the spite;
Ring in the love of truth and right,
Ring in the common love of good"
Morality in our political relations
is as necessary as anywhere else.
We believe that the demand Of the
hour is for able, honest men to fill
positions of trust and responsibility.
The signs of the times are encourag-
ing. That right political action
must follow is as certain as that
night will follow day.
1t will be the aim and purpose of
The Democrat in the future, as in the
past, to advocate high standard Of
political morality, to give to its
readers newspaper pure in tone
and character, to condemn what it
believes to be wrong in political
parties and public men and to ap-
prove what it believes to be right, no
matter by whom advocated or by
whom opposed. In entering upon
the New Year with a largely increas-
ed and constantly increasing list
of subscribers, we can but take it as
an endorsement of our aims and
purposes. Assuring our readers and
friends that we shall put forth every
possible effort to publish a good.
readable and reliable newspaper, we
wish them each and all GA Happy
New Year"

DUBLIN, May 6.-Lord Frederick Cavendish
the new secretary for Ireland, and Earl Spen
Ger, had remained at Dublin castle engaged il
the transaction of official business. until
O'Clock this evening, when each drove to hit
respective residence. After dinner Lord Fred
erick and Mr.. Thos. Henry Burke, under secre
tary, went for walk in Phoenix park. They
were shot close to the chief secretary's lodge
No arrests have been made.
LATER FROM LONDON.
LONDON, May Ga later telegram from
Dublin says it now appears that Lord Caven-
dish and Under Secretay Thos. Henry Burke
were stabbed and not shot. They were both
strolling in the park about half mile from the
city and quarter of mile from the under
secretary's lodge when car drove up contain.
ing four men, two of whom jumped down
from the car and attacked Lord Frederick
Cavendish and Mr.. Burke, stabbbing them
both several times In the throat and breast.
The victims
STRUGGLED HARD FOR LIFE
and in the struggle became separated, their
bodies being found some ten PAGES apart. The
tragedy occurred about ten minutes after I
O'Clock in the evening and in broad daylight.
The bodies were first discovered by two young
gentlemen who were riding bicycles through
the park, aud who Immediately gave the alarm
to the police.
Surgeons soon reached the spot, but the
police were already conveying Burke's body
away to the town, where an examination
showed life to be extinct. The upper part of
toJ t., ehoo
ner and presented CHASTITY sight.
Proceeding further the medical men reached
the body of Lord Frederick Cavendish, which
was being conveyed away from the park on a
stretcher. The body of the chief secretary
displayed the
SAME DREADFUL WOUNDS,
in addition to which his left arm was also
broken and torn, as If he had put 1t up to
protect his breast. Lord Cavendish was quite
dead.
The bodies were taken to Steven hospital
where they will remain until the inquest Is
held. The locality of the outrage is terribly
marked with blood. The spot where the
body of Lord Cavendish was found was abso-
lutels deluged, while Burke's body lay IN a
pool of blood.
1t is said that after the act the murderers
Immediately drove off. There seems to be no
clue to the assassins at present, but the police
are taking most extraordinary measures to
discover the perpetrators. A large quantity
of notes and gold coin, besides their gold
watches were found in the pockets of the vic
Tins, which showed that the object of the
crime was not robbery.
Great excitement prevails throughou
Dublin, and widespread indignation is ex-
pressed over the event. The telegraph offices
are besleged for the latest news. Owing to
the lateness of the hour when the news ar
rived in London, nothing of the outrage is as
yet known here among the general public.
At London clubs and other West End resorts
the news of the assassination was received
with feeling of stupefaction, followed by the
feeling of the bitterest resentment.

THE STORM IN LOUISVILLE.
LOUISVILLE, KY, May 6.-The storm last
night tore the Chas. Morgan away from her
moorings at the wharf, and blew her up
the river distance of forty yards, when she
swung around and struck one of Dugan's coal
fats, containing 500 bushels of coal. Three
hundred bushels of coal went into the river
while the remainder was taken off to prevent
the fiat from sinking. Men are at work this
morning pumping out the fat. The damage
will amount to about $4,000.
