Hill before requiring him to scOur the files of
his office for ten years past, he should be in
formed for what specific purpose the papers
were to be used, and what specific charges
against him they were expected to substan-

Murch said that his object in asking for
these papers was to show that great frauds
had been perpeirated upon the government.
That the cost of public buildings had been
extended far beyond any necessity, and that
contractors hal in some instances, been
paid ten times over the value Of the services
rendered.
Alter some further discussion as to the

Burying the Ratchet.

The republicans of New York are COM
ing together in harmony to work for sue
cess in the national election next year.
The course of the democrats in the legis-
lature, which they controlled. has had a
very salutary effect in uniting the repub.
licans. All the promises of reformation
made by the democracy during the elec.
ton OF last year were disregarded by the
legislature, that body earning the bad dis
tinction of being the worst legislative
body ever known in the State.
Last Monday evening committee
chosen from the different factions OF re-
publicans in the city met together and
agreed upon n plan of reorganization
which promises to be acceptable to the
party at large and to bring about COM
plete and satisfactory union of all stripes
and factions. A prominent leader of the
party who assisted In drawing up the plan
of reorganization said OF il: 1T was dis.
cussed at length by the full committee,
and was unanimously approved. All the
various shades OF republican opinion were
represented on the committee. and judg-
ing by their expressions think it cannot
fail to meet the approval of the republi-
can voters throughout the city. 1t was
intended that the plan should be so broad
as to take in all who really desire to act
with the republican party. 1t was deem
ed sufficient evidence Of voters repub-
lican principles that he voted for Garfield
in 1880. hope and have every
reason to believe that the plan will be
carried out successfully, that its effect will
be to bring into the republican organiza-
ton many of those who hitherto held
aloof and tina, the party in this city will
he materially strengthened"
We hope the movement in New York
may have an influence to harmonic the
party in other cities and States where Ill.
vision exists. Their example is good
ONE to follow. Harmony in the ranks is
all that is needed to ensure republican
victory next year.

The United States Express Co.'S money
carrier, Alexander Granger, received sundry
packages of money and other valuables from
the last bound Lake shore train at the Union
depot, this morning, and placed them in his
buggy which was standing outside. Some
body distracted his attention for a moment,
during which time two Packages containing
brown paper were substituted for the money
packages. The loss was not learned till he
reached the office. The amount taken is
supposed to he some SIS 200.

Parliament was held in London last night
Justin Mccarthy, member of Parliament for
LOngfOrd. who acted as chairman, said it was
the bOunden duty of Irishmen to contribute
to the testimonial for Parnell. Referring to
the papal circular to the Irish clergy, he said
the Irish people had only to repudiate the
fraudulent statements which had been made
to the college of cardinals. He should re-
greet to see Priest divorced from Irish
politics, for IN times past he had been the
only friend of the people. Biggar, member
of Parliament for Cavan. spoke in condemna-
ton of the circular.

Alexander III.

Thus far Alexander III. has succeeded
in taking the steps necessary to his coro-
nation. He has entered the city Of Mos
COW in state, with a most imposing and
gorgeous display, probably greater than
ever before witnessed by the Russian peo-
pie on similar occasions. To outward APP
pearance he approaches the browning GER
emony with the pomp and absolute power
that attended his predecessors at their cor
oDations. But underneath the grand
display OF regal power there are facts the
revelation of which would render the
great pageant piece OF mockery.
Amer weary and anxious months Of
preparation. crushing out opposition with
a merciless hand sustained by powerful
army and police system that searched
everywhere, not knowing in what part Of
his vast empire he could be perfectly as
sured OF safety for even single day. the
Car comes to his crown not as the father
Of his people. but as the conqueror and
despot whom they fear and hate. 1t is
not that Alexander is personally a cruel
tyrant or monster of wickedness that he is
hated, but because he is the representa-
tive Of system Of despotsm which al
lows no liberty to the subject and makes the
Cars will the supreme law of The realm.
An emperor who receives The crown under
- oh nj
pity rather than of envy. No plincely
position Is worth the having that does not
carry with It the respect and good will OF
the people in whose name it is held. The
browning of such monarch is but SOL
emn farce, and the greater the pomp on
such an occasion the greater the farce.
It is to be hoped that with the coronation
of the Car we shall have heard the last
Of Nihiism as an active force in the
reformation of the monarchies OF the
world. 1t is worse than the system which
it aims to destroy. Its methods array the
whole civilized world against it. They
are inhnman, brutal, devilish. dangerous
to every form of government. democratic
as well as aristocratic. They serve to
tighten the bands Of despotism that hold
the people down. II the Russian people
would be free and self-governing they
must try other means than assassination
and massacre. The struggle Of the
people of the United States with tyranny
is an example which they may study with
profit. The people of the American
colonies were perhaps better situated to
make successful contest than the people
OF Russia are, but we believe the en-
ligh,ened. patriotic. God-fearing, deter
mined and united spirit which controlled
the colonists in the American Revolution.
would il it prevailed in Russia or any
other absolute government work the
freedom of the people in them as it has in
this country.
Next Sunday the Car will be crown
ed at the Church OF the Holy Assumption
in Moscow. providing his life is spared
But If he is to rule his empire by the same
agencies which have made his coronation
possible, his crown will be acostly baubie.

than that of the penitenliary convict, who
at least can eat and sleep in peace though
he cannot scale the walls that hold him in
