New YORK Times: And on the whole, it
may be safely said that the close of the 47th
Congress leaves the party in better situa-
tion than at its opening, and in one far bet-
ter than could have been anticipated after
the first session. The spirit within the par
ty at large which has secured the results OBJ
tanned in Congress is much more powerful
and active than it has been in Congress it
self. Many impediments have been re-
moved; much has been gained There is
every reason for confidence t1at the party,
holding fast to what it has achieved, win go
on to greater or more honorable career in

IT would seem from the outline of the cf-
fical programme which has been forthcom-
ing that the festivities upon the occasion of
the coronation of the CzaI are to take the
form of an immense bribe to the least refec
tive portion of the Russian public. The
Gar proposes to adopt the tactics of the en-
terprising person who opens new tavern.
he intends to give kind of colossal free
lunch for the benefit and modification of his
dear subjects. Oxen are to be roasted
whole, for gratuitous distribution; beer is to
be placed on draught without money and
without price, and every attempt is tobe
made to keep the people in good humor.
This is a line of policy which has a good
deal to recommend it, for the number of
radical reformers who can be bought vii b
free treat is not small. Whether the price
OF the Russian Nihilists is as low as that re-
mains to be seen.

heretofore. The stamp tax on bank checks

patent medicines is also to be abolished.
The tax on dealers in tobacco is also largely
reduced, and no change has been made in
the provision that producers may sell tob,c-

THE Lewiston Journal offers the follow
ing good reasons why tax commission
should be established: In the debate on
tax-reform which has been carried oa in the
Journal of late, many excellent suggestions
were made, but one of the very best and one
onwhich we hope the Maine Legislature
will act before its adjournment, is the sug-
gestion made to the Journal readers by one
of our ablest judicial minds, to the effect
that the Legislature appoint Tax Com
mission to report to the next L gisla-
ture, on this entire subject, with instruc-
tions to collate, review and study the
whole body of our present law bearing on
taxation, and make such suggestions as
they deem proper to the Legislature of
1885. 1t is conceded on all hands that
Judge Goddard's revision of the laws has
been one of the best pieces of work Maine
has ever had done for it. Now, (as may be
deemed best) if two or three gentlemen
equally well equipped for this work as Judge
Goddard was for the revision-work, could be
appointed for this tax-reform service, to re-
port, as Indicated after thorough investga-
fion and study in the Legislative recess, we
are very sure that the paltry sum which
Such commission would cost would be as
nothing compared with the large and excel
lent results to Maine taxpayers which
would flow out of their work. Will not the
Legislature give us such Commission?

LORD Lonsdale will accept no apologies,
and the editors Of Truth, the London soce-
ty paper which SO strongly limited at infelic-
tiles in the Lonsdale household, will have to
stand suit for libel. Libel suits against
newspapers are not infrequently inspired by
desire for backsheesh, but the entire sue
cess of this particular proceeding is some
thing to be desired. The publication of
scandalous gossip, whether such gossip is
true or false, is an offense against the COM
munity which the law should endeavor to
supnress.

Faith and Good Worlrc

Portland has had Mayors who were in fa-
vor OF the prohibitory liquor law but against
its enforcement, and apparently they have
been acceptable to the extreme prohibitions
lists. Mayor Libby questioned the expedi-
ency of the law, but manfully did his duty
and enforced it. He believes in enforcing
all laws upon the statute book and has al
ways acted upon that belief. Because of
that-because he faithfully kept his oath of
Office, he has been defeated. The liquor
sellers and the radical prohibitionists struck
hands and bore him down. The action, or
inaetion, of the prohibtionists has led to
the election of a man who does not believe
their theory is right and who is sturdily op.
posed to the enforcement of law the State
has enacted. We doubt if they can look up
on the work OF their hands and sincerely
pronounce it good.
Apparently these ultra prohibitionists be-
lieve more in faith than in works. Officers
who prosesed but did not practice were sat
fsfactory to them. An officer who practic. ID
but did not preach was their adherence.
30, with the Inconsistency that is their char
scteris.ic, they aided the election of man
who neither practices nor profeses-who
cannot boast Of either faith or good works.

'THE SAVIOR OF THE PUNJAB." Life OF
Lord Lawrence. By II. BoswoRTH SMITH, NJ.
A. With maps and portraits, 2 vols, Svo.,
So. Published by Charles Scribner's Sons,
New York. For sale by Robert Beall, d95
Pennsylvania avenue.
There was good cause for the expectation
which was aroused in England by tho an
nouncement OF MIR. Bosworth Smiths "Llfe of
Lord Lawrence" and there is still greater
reason for the reception 1t has had there as
the great contribution OF the year both
10 biography and history. II was known
that 1t would give such narrative OF
the period Of the Indian mutlny as would not
have been possible from any other materials;
and that II would present a faithful
picture OF one OF the noblost Engllshmen and,
indeed, strongest characters OF modern times
II Is now found that Mr.. Smith has used his
opportunity so finely that he has made one OF
the great biographies OF recent years;
and the publication OF the work In
London has been treated as a literary event
OF the first Importance. There seems little
doubt that 1t is to have a success not often
paralleled. The career OF the man 'who saved
India from the great mutiny;" tho story Of
the Mutiny Itself; the narrative OF countless
adventures and passages OF India life and tho
outspoBen review OF the English policy In the
East-which was Lord Lawrence's last great
work, even as late as the Afghan dlnlculties-
these are elements OF interest such as have not
been united in any recent book.
