AROYAL CHRISTENING.

The royal family of Germany has be-
come so large that one child more or less
can hardly be noticed, save by its own
loving parents. Nevertheless, as much
fuss is made over the christening of each
newcomer as fit had no predecessors
The latest arrival is Eitel Friedrich, the
the second son of Prince William Of
Prussia, great-grandson of the Emperor,
and fourth living heir in the direct line
to the Prussian and German thrones.
The child was baptized the other Sunday
afternoon in that apartment Of the Pots
dam Schloss which was used as library
by Frederick the Great. The ceremony
was witnessed by large and brilliant
company, including all the members of
the royal family and of the court now in
Germany, the King of Roumania, who
came specially for the purpose, and the
Duke of Edinburgh and the Duchess of
Albany, who were the guests of the
Crown Prince. During the performance
of the baptismal service the child was
held by the Crown Princess, and after the
christening act the Emperor, who is now
in his Seth year, took it in his arms
before it was restored to its mother. At
ter the ceremony the company pre-
sented their fluctuations to the Prince
and Princess William, and were after
ward entertained at banquet. The in
FAINT was baptized with water from the
River Jordan, which Prince Frederick
Charles brought home with him from
Palestine last spring. The uncommon
name given to the baby is of great anti
guilty, having been used in the Hohen-
zollern family some centuries ago, when
still residing il their ancestral castle in
the Suabian Alps. The young Princes
cradle of carved oak has been in use in
the royal family for 100 years.

POLITICAL NOTES.

Hon. F. o. Prince, of Boston, who
was nominated by the democrats for
Lieutenant Governor, on the ticket with
Butler, is in France with his invalid
wife. It is reported from Boston, and
the report is also denied, that he sent
a cable dispatch declining the nomina-
ton.
Senator Cullom, who succeeds David
Days, viii not literally fill the latter
place, for he isn't much more than half
as big, being only medium-sized man.
He is good talker, and, like the aver
age Illinois statesman, full of anecdotes
and 'little stories" -Nesc York Trib-
uRe.
There is world of significance in
Senator HarrisOn's saying that "the
nearer a Democratic politician goes to
the chicken-eocp the smaller his voice
grows in the song of reform" This ST.
lence of the Democratic platforms this
year, compared with the loud talk made
before the tidal wave lifted them into
closer proximity to the Chicken COOP"

PURITY AND REFORM.

George Hiles, of Wood County, is one
of the Democratic reformers who waits
to turn the rascals out" and who says
the Republicans must CO." He ran for
the Legislature last fall but was not
elected. But his town, Dexterville,
showed wonderful increase III the
number of votes at the election. The
election officers and Hiles himself are
now undergoing trial for alleged frauds
committed and allowed. The testimony
so far shows that the legal vote could
not exceed seventy-fve, whereas over
160 were cast. The polls were opened
an hour ahead of time. Railroad hands
who had no residence and foreigners who
had not been in the country year were
induced to 60 to the polls, aud their votes
were received. The kird of man Hiles
is or might be is sworn to by one witness
as follows:
Henry Spencer: On the 7th day of
last November had been living at Dex-
terville three months; family had been
living there two months; came from Bos-
ton the June preceding. On election
day, in company with three others, wit
ness went to the store. As they were
leaving Hiles, said: "Hold on, boys;
amt you going to vote for me?" They
replied that the had no right to vote,
Hiles said: "That makes no difference;
I work for your interests and you ought
to work for mine"
Other witnesses testified to the same
general effect. All this was in Wiscon-
sin, where the Democratic papers say,
The people demand a change" From
what to what?-Oshkosh Northwestern.

G. W. BUTTERFIELD, of Madison, who
is the brother-in-law of Pere Hyacinth,
says that the distinguished divine accom-
panied by bis wife and child sailed on the
29th ult. from Liverpool for this country.
He will arrive in New York City about
Oct 6, and after short rest will at once
enter the lecturing field. He will lecture
in prominent eastern cities and in Mon.
treal whence he will come west and de-
liver several lectures. He will visit his
elatives il Madison several weeks. His
visit to this country will be of three or
four months duration His addresses
will be in the French language as he
speaks English very indiferently. He
has not visited this country since 1871
and his prospective visit will be controlled
somewhat by his engagements.

ST. JULIEN AND JAY-EYE SEE.-Jay-
Eye see stands but Is hands, and Robert
Bonner declined to buy him one year ago
on that account. He liked the form and
breeding of the horse, but did not believe
that he had size enough to make world
beater. But now that Jay-Eye-See has
trotted mile at Providence in 2:10A,
and repeated in 2:1134 at Boston, the
opinion that we cannot get length of
stride for fast mile without height of
1913 or 16 hands falls to the ground. Jay
Eye-See is the fastest trotter for his age,
regardless of size that the world has ever
seen. The interest taken in his match
with St. Julien at the Gentleman's Driv-
ing Park on Saturday afternoon next is
very great and it is growing. St. Julien
is in grand form. Mr.. Hickok drove him
an easy mile in 2:14A. He ia very re-
liable and has had so much experience
in fast races thatsthe advantage is on his
side. At least this is the conclusion of
many who have critical knowledge of the
trotting turf. But he will have. to trot
down in PIP to beat Jay Eye-See.
A SPECIMEN DEMOCRATIC NoMINA-
TIoN.-The nomination of Robert L.
McLane for Governor by the Democrats
of Maryland is almost equivalent to a
public endorsements of his notorious rec
ord, In 1860 he made famous secession
speech in Baltimore, in which he declar,
ed that in the event of civil war the
Susquehanna should be made the battle
line and Maryland the battle ground.
From this circumstance this doughty
warrior (who fled to Europe the moment
war was declared) was popularity known
as "Susquehanna Bob" The nomination
of such man ought to greatly encourage
the Republicans of that state. The defeat
of Hamilton who has exposed the gross
abuses which exist in the Democratic
party of that state, and the nomination
of a man like McLane, ought to inspire
the Republicans of Maryland to greater
exertions than ever. and ought to bring
to their assistance many respectable
Democrats.-Nes0 York Commercial Id

THE Courier-J Journal is very respondent
over the Democratic outlook in Ohio.
There was time when its editor claimed
to have 100000 Kentuckians whom he
proposed to take to Washington to inau-
gurate Tilden. He wishes now that he
had half that number in order to lead
them to the rescue of Hoadley, who is
certain to be wrecked in ''Salt river" on
the 9th of October next.

The statistics show that the Scot Ii
quor law in Ohio has already yielded q
revenue of $4,000, 900, which means just
that much reduction in the peoples taxes.
An argument like that is exceedingly
hard to get over; and Senator Sherman
was probably correct when he said at the
beginning of the campaign that after the
Scott law lad been fairly put in opera
ton, no party would ever dare to propose
its repeal.

ONE Of the most serious objections
TO the land bill now before the house
is to be found in the second section.
This section places the control of the
lands in the hands of board, to be
composed of the governor, attorney
general, treasurer, comptroller and
commissioner of the land office. This
is grievous mistake. The response
bility of managing an office of so
much Importance should rest with
some individual of recognized compe-
tency. If the responsibility belong
ing to position be divided among
several persons, the chances are ten to
one against a satisfactory perform
ance of the required duties. This is
the uniform history of boards. They
may mean well, but they do not do
well. 1t is questionable whether the
legislature has the constitutional
right to create new office; and if so,
the propriety and justice of saddling
"a new class of duties and responsible
titles upon the abOve-named officers
admit of much doubt. They have al
ready as much rs they can at
tend to, and it is worse than
folly to expect them, however willing
they may be to do so. to neglect du-
ties for which they were elected and
which they have sworn and given
bonds to perform, and attend to others
that they do not pretend to under
stand. and probably never will. If
this bill becomes law with this sec
tion remaining us itnow is, the upshot
will be the appointment of some per-
son who will be more marked for his
ability to draw and use his salary than
to properly discharge the duties of his
position. While the house is wrest-
ling with this vexatious problem. the
STATESMAN will take the liberty of
offering twosuggestions, one of which
it hopes to see adopted. The first is
to kill the bill by Withdrawing all the
lands from the market till tlhs meet
mg OF the next legislature. by that
time the public mind will be pretty
definitely shaped as to the best
method of disposing of them.
In matters of great moment,
it is best to make haste slowly.
The second suggestion is to strike
out every name from the second sec
tion except that of the commissioner
of the land office. He is the only man
having the first qualification for car
rying out the provisions of the bill.
If the bill becomes a law with the
second section in its present form, the
indications are that the position of
chief of the land department will be
considered a legitimate part of the
spoils of Office, and it will be disposed
of accordingly. The position is one
of too much Importance to be prbsti-
tuted to the payment of political
debts. The commissioner of the land
office will feel the responsibility of
putting an efficient man at the head
of it; but under the control of board
the best wire-puller will be sure to
get it, though he may be the veriest
ignoramus.
