his reason for such belief in course
of argument, and left every intelligent
man who reads the papers to decide
whether he is right or wrong. 1t may
be that Mr.. Blaine is all and more than
his enemies are trying to make him
out. IF so, they have chosen an unfor-
tunate issue in which to prove it. for
they have failed signally in the at
tempt. 1t counts but little to call a
man horrid names and heap reproaches
and ridieule upon him without having
some convincing facts behind the accu-
sation. It looks little queer to see so
much turning Of coats at time when
there is an apparent reward awaiting
those who duly come round to the sup
port and sympathy of the power that
be. The American press is hallowed
institution, of course, and it is a little
akin to blasphemy, perhaps, to suspect
our great dailies of anything like being
bought up or scared out, but the change
of front of some Of our illustrious ex-
changes in the past few months is too
noticeable not to lead to such a suspi-
cion. 1t is not to be supposed that Mr..
Arthur is trying to commend himself
to the American people by Incorporate
ing a new and more popular policy
toward the South American countries.
The attempt to overthrow, expunge
and annihilate Mr.. Blaine's transac-
lions in the State Department is purely
negative move of the anti-Blaine poll
ticians to damage Mr.. Blaine's reputa-
ton and prospects. Any one who
reads the papers and leaves out those
parts that are purely denunciatory of
Mr.. Blaine and his policy will fail to
see anything but an even and consist
ent policy running through the entire
correspondence, showing that Mr..
biaines aim was entirely Tor the pro-
motion of our interests and the build
ing up of friendly relations between
the South American states and this
country, that would result in mutual
benefit and safety to both. Ithas been
frequently said that the instructions
sent to our minister at Chilli were of a
character to disturb our friendly rela-
lions with that country that the invi-
tation extended to all the states to
meet in general peace congress con-
tanned an assumption Of our dictatorial
power over the affairs of these coun-
tries. Such statements do not seem to
be substa tiated by the text of letters
of instruction and invitation that is
sued from the Department during Mr..
Blaine's Secretaryship.

There is strong feeling in Congress
favoring the re-establishment of the
United States navy. AT present there
is scarcely q maritime nation on the
face of the globe but could cope with
us in anayal engagement or cause seri-
GUS embarrassment by an incursion up
on our coasts, while there are fifth-rate
powers that could annihilate us on the
high seas. The war ships of Uncle
Sam are getting aged and inefficient,
and public Safety seems to demand
that prompt steps be taken to render
them equal to the needs that, no one
knows how soon, they may be called
upon to serve. The United States is
abundantly able to provide herself with
a navy that will place her in the front
ranks among maritime powers.
American genius is equal to the emer-
gency of furnishing designs for war
crafts that are not inferior to those
possessed by Great Britain or other
maritime nations. The day of big
ships is past. Steel clad steamers of
small build, but great speed, are found
to be more efficient in naval warfare
than cumbersome crafts having any
amount of gun-powder on board. The
government is already taking steps
oward building up such a navy.
Even with the avowed purpose of es-
tablishing new and powerful navy
and the funds all provided, it will take
some time to put the scheme into exc
cution. The friendly relations now
existing between this country and all
other countries bids fair not to last
very many years, and it behooves the
government during a time of peace
and prosperity to provide for whatever
wars may come.

A report is current in Washington
that neither Cannon nor Campbell will
be admitted as a delegate from Utah
Campbell, for the obvious reason that
he failed to receive one-tenth of the
vote, and Cannon because he is an open
bigamist, both in belief and his life,
contrary to law. 1t will be necessary,
if such action is taken, for the question
of who shall represent Utah to go back
to the people, and with the under.
standing that no one living in bigamy
will be received.

An article in the February number
Of HGqper'S Magazine on the "Life
Saving Service" will be read with great
interest. The article is not only de-
scription of the character of that SER
vice and the implements employed, but
contains an account of some of the per-
ills that have been bravely encountered
by different crews in their noble work
of saving lives. One can see of what
service such a crew can be in an emer-
gency, which is liable to occur at any
moment throughout the sailing season
on lake or sea coast. Measures are
now being considered by Congress for
increasing the number of stations and
rendering them even more effective. It
is also pleasing to note the high regard
in which the service is held by the eff
fort made to secure more adequate pay
and provision for the families of sail
ors VINO lose their lives in their often
heroic attempts to rescue the Inflated
passengers and crews of vessels going
to pieces in the storm. The station
situated in Kenosha, although it has
never been called upon for relief in
cases of extreme peril such as detailed
in the article referred to, have given
valuable aid to disabled vessels, and
the time may not be far distant when
they may b. called upon for higher
work. In such a case we can have lit
tie doubt but that, like Jim Bludso,
they will "See their duty, dead sure
thing, and go for it there and then"

The influence that Roscoe Conkling
exerts is peculiar. To his followers he
is the one man of the Republic. The
Old Guard breaks into enthusiastic
cheers at the mention Of his name.
He Is the subject Of the most Aowery
eulogy an enraptured orator can crack
his brains over. His every act and
word is to them god-like. Such devo-
tion as he receives is some excuse for
the egotistic tendencies of the man.
He evidently believes in and admires
himself as much as any one among
them all. Mr.. Conkling's name is
mentioned in connection with the gov
ernorship of New York.

What Shall We Do?

There can be but two great polit-
ical parties in this country. There
may be occasionally abOrtiOns from
one or the other of these parties,
which for Il short time may "breathe
the breath of life" but soon the
collapse comes. The identity, is
lost, in the absorbing of this abor-
ton in one or the other of these
great political combatants. Now
we find Mr.. Editor, just such a con-
ditioii Of political affairs in our midst,
and the question is asked. What
shall we the Republicans do T.? Shall
we lose our identity, and become
the abortion ? or shall we lift the
trailing banner of the Republican
party, from the dust and place it
once more in front. Let the Re-
publicans who are bowling for poll
cy and expediency remember that
there are principles connected with
this grand old party, principles which
gave it birth. If they should stab
to death Brutus-like their only po-
litical friend the principles which
animated the Republican party
will always live for,
"Deep in the dust the body may
lie. But the spirit which warmed
it once can never die"

Our Schools.

Next Monday week our Graded
School for colored children opens.
1t is hoped that every child of
school age in this city will be en-
tered on that day. Parents should
think of the Importance of educa-
ting their children, the importance
of putting them in school in time
and keeping them in while there is
a school for them to go. Let every
one consider the Importance of the
loss of one day from school and let
the child be there erery day.
We have now an excellent super
intendent and good teachers, and
we urge upon parents to send every
child to school that is of proper age.
Do not wait till more convenient
time, for better clothes or offer any
such frivolous excuses. Parents are
responsible to God for their chill
dren. Many a poor boy is now suf-
fering in our State prison from neg
lect of parents Idleness is the
devils workshop and those who re-
main in idleness work for the devil
and will surely be punished.

Why the Gospel Stopped.

"You see boss" exclaimed old

cruelty to animals. "Dis yer horse

But old Pete's eloquent appeal
was of no avail. A five dollar Will
liam is what the officer charged him
for cruelty to animals, and Pete was
compelled to wend his way home on
foot, leading Charlie by his rope
bride.
