4 SSgaciOuS Result.

The New York Democratic conven-
ton has done very well indeed. The
New York Times says that it exhibited
surprising sagacity. In view of the
undeniable fact that Democratic con.
ventions, as we'll as Republican conven-
tions, often fail to act with sagacity
which seems plainly Indicated, there is
some excuse for surprise that no excep-
tion can he taken to the wisdom of the
proceedings of this convention. 1t re-
versed the action of its predecessor in re-
fusing to- admit the delegateso of Tammany
hall. They had been rejected because
they were not regular {; but they went
home and cast over forty thousand votes.
This convention recognized the fact that
irregularity" was not sufficient rea.
son for refusing representation to forty
thousand Democrats. Sc, while it affirmed
the declaration of the last convention
that Tammany was not " regular" it
declared it nevertheless entitled to repre-
sentation. The logic may be a little
misty and the status of regularity some
what indefinite under this discrimination;
but what is perfectly clear and definite
Is that the vote of the Tammany Demo
Gratis is restored to the Democracy and
that the party is reunited.
The sagacity of the convention did not
end here. 1t took fresh, clean, vigor-
GUS candidate for governor one who has
not been a party hack but who has made
good record as an energetic and eff +.
cient public officer. 1t has a man without
reproach at the head of its ticket and a
party without a division following it.
And tho convention still further demon.
strated its wisdom in its platform. 1t
made one to suit its candidates and to
fill the broad field which the Republican
ticket and platform left open to their
exclusive occupancy. 1t declared in
clear and strong language in favor of
tho adoption of measures to restrict the
growing power of chartered honopolies
and Of the prohibition of all Unjust dis
examinations in tho transportation of
passengers and merchandise, avowlng
that I" the charge of corporations which
have taken tho property of pfivate citi-
zens for public use should be limited to
the cost OF service, with a reasonable
profit, instead Of the mercenafy exaction
Of all the traffic will bear;;" declaring
also against the wholesale gift of the
public lands to railroad jobbers, thus
robbing the people of their rightful in
heritance, and demanding that these
lands shall be. reclaimed as far as posi-
bic and reserved for occupation by ac-
tual settlers - ~
These declarations comprise our plat
form and contain all the platform we

>THE EQUINOCTsAL STORM.
HEAVY Fan Of Rails for Ibre0 Days.

Tho excessively hot weather that pre-
vailed during the carly part Of the week
just closing was followed on Thursday
night by several fitful gusts Of rain. and
during nearly all Of Friday and to day
there has been an almost continuous fall
of rain. As the storm commenced about
the time the sun crossed the equinox, that
semi-annual event will be very generally
credited with causing tho wet weather :;
but as the storm was preceded by several
unusually hot days, some wiseacres ex
plain that tho comet is to bear its full
share of responsibility for both the heat
and tho deluge.

"The Kerry Cow"

Mr.. Joseph Murphy's pleasing little
Irish comedy of the "Kerry Cow :" has
lost none of tho picturesque beauty and
graceful charm that gave it its early pop
ularity and arc likely to retain it in gem
eral favor for a long time to come. The
humor that runs through the play from
beginning to end does not fail, but goes
on like limpid stream for . pure foun-
tain, with just enough pathos here and
there to give finished setting to the
story that is enacted. Mr.. Murphy, him.
self an actor of sterling worth, whose
merits We have had previous occasion
to consider at length, has the good
sense to surround himself with a capable
company, and each part in tho perform
ance OF last night had admirable treat
ment, and made itself a component factor
in the representation. Miss Adele Waters,
an uncOmmOnly pretty little lady, made
the heroine's role just as attractive as
could be, and shared in the honors that
were so freely distributed, and there was
no words save those of cOmmendatiOn for
tho other members of the evenly balanced
cast. "The Kerry Cow" was deserv-
Ing of larger audience, though tho
inclcment weather made q good many peo-
pie stay indoors, who otherwise would no
doubt have turned out to welcome Mr..
Murphy.

"TOM' MARSHALL is loose and now

"FUBLIC Office is public trust, to be
executed for the benefit of the whole peo-
pie, to whom alone officials owe response
bility, and of whose will they should be
the faithful exponents. When this con-
ception Of duty is lost sight or modified,
the way is open for an immediate, certain
aud constant degeneracy Of the public ser.
vice. A merely mechanical and negligent
performance of official functions follows the
obliteration of those standards of duty.
This results from the long continuance in
power of selfish political leaders, and is a
most serious evil in the public service. y
