in the country. If 1t means what 1t says,
it should come to the front with it's inn
mense influence and lead in q movement
to "shove the politicians little more to
one SIDE" 80 that 4" eminent fitness and
availability" in a presidential candi-
date may for once go hand in hand. The
Times has shown its readiness to take up
political reforms and lead the people up
to them. The silence of the Times and
other controlling journals in this matter
is an indirect encouragement, if it is not
designed as direct contribution, to the
success of what they profess to regard
as less competent and less desirable can
didates. 1t is because just such papers
as the Times, for some reason, do not
espouse Senator Edmunds' candidacy
that there are "ifs " and "buts not only
in Vermont but all over the country.
The difficulty does not seem to be that
the senator holds too lightly the unani-
nous and loyal feeling of Vermont re-
publicans," but that republican journals
and politicians elsewhere hold too strongly
other feelings towards Senator Edmunds.

Notes and Comments.

THE Ohio democrats are reported as
favoring General Hancock's nomination
for president.
THE disappearance of the New York
Suns fantastic boom for Holman, the
cheese-paring Indiana congressman, is
one of the political incidents of the past
few days.
RIoHFoRD GAZETTE The movement
to make Frederick Billings of Woodstock
the republican candidate for governor in
1884 meets with cordial approval in all
parts of the state. All shades of political
opinion unite in pronouncing him clean,
honest and upright man, and in intellect
far superior to the average of our gov.
ernors."
IT is reported that Governor Butler has
had conference in Washington with the
leaders of the greenback-labor party, and
it has been decided to hold the national
convention in that city early in May.
Butler will be nominated by reclamation,
80 the leaders claim, and the national
greenback-labor organ says that the results
of the convention will paralyze the other
two parties, and that the democrats will
be obliged to take the same candidate.
VERGENNEs VERMoNTER "Quite a
number of our leading state papersl have
eulogized Governor Barstow and de.
nounced the one-term system as the dis
grace and curse of our state politics, but
have made no serious attempt to break it
up, and yet they could hardly have hoped
for a better occasion. Governor Barstow
is universally popular, and had the press
of the state stood by him, there would
have been no further occasion to COM
plain of the one-term rule. But the oppor.
tunity has passed. Mr.. Billings has taken
long step to the front, and there seems
nothing left us but to follow the advice
of the Rutland Herald and nominate him
by reclamation"

cure three years. extension of the taxes

appalling bulk of liquor represents the &C.

duction, persevered in after congress had
once granted an extension on representa-
tions that the folly would not be repeated.
The real purpose of the ring is believed to
be to get an extension as the primary step
toward the final abolition, or material re-
duction of the tax, and the consequent de-
frauding of the government of vast sums
of revenue. The whiskey lobby is reor.

Not Satisfactory.

We are sorry to observe in the discussions Of
the tariff which illuminate the columns of the
Courier Journal Of late, disposition to blink
and dodge the great question of principle.
Read, for instance, the following: "The cleo
ton OF Carlisle meant the reduction of tariff
duties to the basis of the revenue needed to
support the government economically admins
tered. That will appear first In the organiza-
ton OF the ways and means committee. 1t
will next appear in a revenue reform bill which
that committee Will prepare and report. 1t
will finally prevail in the national convention
which will nominate a revenue reform ticket
and put 1t on revenue reform platform.
This will not answer. Revenue reform may
mean anything you like To abolish the to-
bacco tax, the tax on spirits and malt liquors,
and all other internal taxes, would be reform
of the revenue; but that is not what was
promised from the brilliant success of the
South and West in the election of the speaker
What we demand is either that the reform Of
the tariff shall be so formulated by the demo-
Gratis who control the organization OF the house.
that the question of protection in opposition to
non-protection shall be squarely, fully, uneva-
sively, and uncompromsingly presented to be
settled and disposed of in the presidential cleo
ton; or else that the democrats, who control
the house, shall frankly and honestly abandon
the doctrine OF a tariff for revenue only, and
proclai m that protection is necessary and justi-
fable, thus taking the issue out of the presiden
tial election altogether. Let us have the one
or the other, according to their convictions and
with that the country will be content.
What we object to, what we resist now and
henceforth, is every form and degree of lug
Cling, paltering, and humbugging with this
subject. We will not have men masquerad-
ing as free traders when they are really pro-
tectionists; we will not have men continuing
to shout for tariff reform on the principle Of
into their tariff on the sly. We are ready and
anxious to see the positive and progressive
campaign, which has been announced so
loudly, fought out and ended. We, too, are
weary of the great and everlasting bugbear
of alarming capital and alternating the BUSH
ness interests. " 1t is time to be done with it.
"The democratic party will make free
trade fight in 1884, ;" said the Courier Journal
not long ago. and democrats who can't go
it, had better pick up and get out" "The

democratic party" said the same able news
paper, Except In the persons OF imbeciles
hardly worth mentioning, is not upon the
fence; IL is free trade party, OF 1t IL nothing"
This Is the programme, and we say let Il be
that the pecple NAV pronognco ' The fIneI d So
cision; and we will welcome the honest, whole
some contest before that tribunal But don't
dodge around this great dispute with any de-

Some further words in her analysis of his
character will be suggestive and profitable
reading to ministers. He had no love for
humanity and the motive for human life es-
capped him. He loved his own notion of hu-
manity. He loved the intellectual phantom OF
some remote phase Of humanity but men and
women he did not love. He lacked that hui
man sympathy which is essential to the COM
prehension of human character, to the inter-
probation OF human action"

sagacity and ability, is furnished by the
