MONDAY EVENING NOV. 3, 1882,
Kicked to Death.

Congressman Barr, who has been
re elected by the skin of his teeth, is OF
the opinion that the Republican party is
beyond hope of resurrection and that II
has been done to death by the stupidity
of its managers. There never was such
an aggravated instance, he thinks.
of self-destruction in a party. Ii
both these views Mr.. Barr is confirmed by
general public opinion, but it hardly lies
in his mouth to proclaim them unless he
aims to pillory himself as one of the de
stroyers of his party. Mr.. Barr can
hardly mean to claim for himself any
very superior power as a politician, in
view of the very narrow escape he had
from defeat IN strong Republican
district. If he, however, intends
to frankly expose himself to
public criticism as one OF the
very stupid political managers he rails
against he will not find many to say him
nav end to assure him that, whatever the
culpability of other Republicans, his
skirts are clear. Mr.. Barr is not very
great man himself, but in that he does
not differ from the average of the men
he has been associated with in the Re-
publican party of Pennsylvania, who
have been its ruling element. They have
been a very common lot of fellows, in
deed, from Senator Cameron down or
IN. There is hardly one among them
who is esteemed as of more than ordi-
nary mental capacity. That such set
of managers should bring their party to
its present state of humiliation was a
matter of certainty in course OF time.
The party was destroyed in the moment
when it put itself in their hands. They
probably do not think so; no doubt Mr..
Barr. when he proclaims the self-de-
struction of his party regards his friends
as the only saviours it had. Probably his
idea is that of Simon Cameron, the head
of the faction that has so long swung the
party, that it has finally come TO grief,
not by reason of its having been
SO long and selfshly administered
in the interest of the few who had
it by the throat, but because they
became alarmed at the opposition howl
they raised and timidly threw themselves
open to defeat by consenting to paIley
with their foes. Simon Cameron is OF
those who believe that even in democ.
racy a majority may be always compelled
with a strong hand. The old man had
so much success at playing the game
that he thinks it will always win but
he left it to men who had not his velvety
hand and he fails to understand that il
is possible for the most submissive mcr
to become in time tired OF being kicked
and ambitious to be the kickers. Among
hands Mr.. Cameron's party has had tht
life kicked out OF it.
