published au editorial in the Re
publican, saying:

| PuoIouCO du 0uiIOTidl III tH0 1G6-
publican, saying:
an resiguing, Conkling turned
the Senate over 10 the Democratic
party. This be did. not for victory,
but for revenge. Right here we
think this intellectual Caesar cross
ed the Rubieon that separated him
from the debatsble land. His first
duty was TO his Country, bis next to
his Party, his last to himself. In
abandoning Ethe Senate he sub
ordinated both Country and Party
to his own person"
May 81, 1881, the week before we
published the above, we wrote, in
the Republican, long editorial in
denunciation of ''bossism," and in
vindication of Garfield, saying,
among other thing:
president Garfield was nominal
ed at Chicago in spite of Bossism.
| His nomination was the triumph of
political Independence. His ap-
pOintment of Judge Robertson is an
Indication that he intends to en-
courage political freedom"
June %, 1871, We published an
other editorial in defense of Presi-
dent Garfield's course.
After that we went out to the Pa
cific States and Territories, and did
not return until December %, long
after Garfeld's death, and when
the so-called stalWarts were sup
posed to be triumphant.
We, at once, wrote an editori |
defining our position on the issues
in the party, and published it ia the
Republican of December 81. In
that editorial we say:
"The Republican Party is one
party, and whoever seeks to create
or encourage divisions, be he stall
wart or half breed, is no true
friend of the party.
ave are not willing to be called
either a staiWart or a half-breed.
The term Republican is the one we
feel proud TO own, deeming it next
to the term American, in glory.
"Names make facts. Once begin
to use names indicative of party di-
visions, and soon these very divis-
ions become facts. At present in
the South there are neither half
breeds nor stalwarts in the Repub-
lican Party; and we protest against
the introduction Of such issues
here"
And there we stand to-day, and
there we have stood all the time;
and there we propose to stand,
come veal, come woe; for our con-
science approves that stand; ard
our will do whatever our con-
science suggests.
Right here we propose to termi
nate discussion on this subject. We
are no stalWart, aud never have
been. We are no half breed, and
never have been.
We are not like the false mother
who was willing to take oIae-half of
the child; we are like the true
mother who wanted the UhOle
child or none. We look with horror
upon the sword that would divide
US into two parts; and we look
with uuconcealed distrust upon
that man who wants to see the
sword Of division drawn.

WARS FEARFUL HAVOC,
As Shown by Statistics from the Re-
port of the Pensions Commissioner.

WASHINGTON, December IA fear-
full picture of wars destruction of
men, not only in killed and wounded,
but by hardships of campaigning, is
presented by the report of the Com
missioner of PensioI s, w. W. Dudley,
In the statistics of the whole num-
Der of men enlisted in the army, and
of the number which haye applied
for pensions, and of dead who have
left relatives who are entitled to
pensions. The report shows total
number of enlistments, as re-
ported by the aiutant-General,
of 2,780,178. OF these, 716,S78
were counted more than once by
reason of re-enlistment, leaving the
actual individual enlistmepts 2,063,-
I'll. OF these there are living who
have not applied for pensions 1, O09.>
469. The living who have applied
for pensions are 1886 The mum,
Der Of dead leaving pensionable rela-
tives who have not applied for pen,
sions is 86,S03, The number Of
dead leaving pensionable relatives
who have applied is 297,566 The
number of dead leaving no pensiona-
BILE relatives is 100000. Thus, of
the whole number of actual individue
al enlistments more than one~half
are included in the lists of dead,
either with or without a pension
application, and of those who have
applied or who have legal claims,
Out of the whole number Of soldiers
who served in the war for any time,
pensions has been applied for on be-
half of twenty>six per cent. The
report says;
The general proposition is pre-
sented that there is surviving sol>
der population of little over l.
100000, out of which claims for pen
sions in the future may be made by
those who incurred pensionable dis
abilities Vita this are the follow
ing pregnant figures: Number who
died during the war, 304, 800; num-
Der dischared for disability, 1885,
545; number in service May 1,
1,O00,5l6. The first part of the
cost of the war in men and
money is not the greater part, as
these statistics and our enormous
pension appropriation show. War
is play which politicians and peo-
pie enter into in gay and festive
spirit, but has a train of calamity
which ontlives all those who made
the war

OUR POLITICS.

We are not vain enough to sup
pose that our readers care about all
the shadings and colorings of our
individual opinions on great public
questions. 1t is enough for the great
mass of them to know that we are
a Republican, and a consistent, in
flexible, unwavering Republican.
Nevertheless a persistent effort
has been made, both in and out of
the newspapers, to class US among
the stalwarts, so-called. Now, we
do not consider it any disgrace to
be q stalWart; many of our dearest
friends are stalwarts. But we are,
perhaps, too sensitively anxious to
appear in our true character.
If we were d stalwart, or ever had
been a stalwart, know ye that we
have the courage to announce 1t;
but as we are not stalWart and
never have been, and do not pro-
pose to be, we have the courage to
announce that also.
In the fir st place, we opposed
Grants nomination for third
term, and were for Washburn,
Blaine or Garfield. We greatly
honored Grant, had been a candi-
date for Grant elector in 1872, and
deemed him "the greatest living
character in the world" But we
shrunk from what we feared THIRD
term implied.
In the second place, we We're 6
candidate for Garfield elector, anC
canvassed this Congressional Dis
trict for him; and when the fgh
sprung up between him ant
Conkling, while regrettine
the necessity that forced
US to choose between them, we
nevertheless, promptly and bold.
took our stand with the President
and, when Conkling resigned, W.

the faithful work of an admirable
body of men. 1t cannot be bettered
by any hasty patchwork in the com
mittee of three-months' Congress.
1t can be safely passed just as it
stands sit cannot be safely left to
the Bourbons of the next Congress.
II the Republicans allow the 4th of
March to lind them without a sim
plifed and reduced protective tariff,
they will deserve the defeat they in
vite.
2 Abolish all internal revenue
taxation, excepting on liquors and
tobacco That simplifes matters
enormously, relieves the people Of
petty exactions and annoyances, and
leaves the burdens of taxation where
they ought to rest-on luxuries or
vices.
3. Pass the best measure of civil
service reform attainable. So many
Democrats have committed them-
selves to the Pendleton bill that
possibly even this might be carried.
The people have not made up their
minds that this is the best plan, or
that they can yet say what the best
plan is; but they want something
done now tending at least to place
the civil service on a better basis,
and they know Republicans can do
it. They will not judge too hastily
if it should prove that the step tax
en- is not the best; but they want
some step taken, and it will be very
unwise not to heed their wish.
DO these three things-every
one highly desirable, every one pos,
sible at this session if honest WORK
for them be begun at once-and il
is not in the power of the Democra-
cy to prevent the election of Re-
publican President in 1884. Neglec
them and the prospect is not en-
couraging.
