VJEWs FREELY IMPRESSED.

The views of General w. ). ROsecrans, OF
California, of which We are getting through
the medium of various newspaper interviews a
pretty large general STOCK entertaining FOR their
freshness and ingeuuousness. To the interview
ing reporter his talkatve candor must be in
this sultry silly season indeed boon. His
frankness knows no bounds. He communi-
Gates his views of Tlden and Hoadly with as
much freedom rs of Mr.. Samuel Cox and Mr..
Denis Kearney, and he does not hesitate to
say in the most courageous way, when asked by
the reporter about the present Governor of
Massachusetts, "NOw, do you know that | like
Ben 7" The manner of putting this question
would seem to indicate n strong suspicion in
the speakers mind that he was guilty of an
eccentricity In this regard that the present
Governor of Massachusetts, is so little liked 10y
people in general that n man who does really
like him is liable to be considered little of
his base" But the fact that he likes = Ben
does not surprise us so much as the familiar
way in which he speaks of him. Wnon We
remember the digniicd manners of Governo
Butler his cold stateiness OF demeanor the
distant self-respect which seems almost like
haughtness, his high sense of propriety. and
constantly illustrated in his conduct of the
Tewksbury INVESTIGATION, it seems TO us that
the assurance Of any one, even a California
Member OF Congress, who can call him Ben
rises to audacity. lie thinks "Ben" is "Sm
geners" and that "when he dies there will be
no one like him left,"-a fact for which Massa-
chusetts is oxceedingly thankful. But he says,
"0f course any serious candidature on his
part for the Democratic nomination Is out of
the question" That ends Ben"
Naturally enough, speaking of Butler re-
minds him of THE TRIBUNE's candidate for
Speaker of the next House, Mr. Samuel Cox.
The General was in the House the day Butler
said "Shoo Fly!r to Cox, and subsequently
told the latteI's brother-in-aw that at was
like glue; it would stick" But the General
added-thereby disclaiming any credit rs a
prophet" Yet Cox seems to have lived it down.
He's the only man whom Ben Butler could not
" sQuelch." fcourse will occur to some people
that the fact that the mention of Buffers name
suggested "Shoo Fly" Cox to the Generals
own mind indicates that it did stick; and then
there are those who will pretend not to re-
member that Batter ever squelched anybody
but Cox. But we must not be too critical
when man is talking right on as the General
obviously was. The General remembered that
one day when some one was making pro-
Chinese speech, winding up with "The China
- man is clean, he is temperate, he is frugal,
" what fault have you to find With him 9"-" Cox
q piped out, He wears his shirt outside of his
3" breeches' The House was conyulsed and
a" that WAS the last of that orator and his
Chinese speech" We are glad to have this
testimony to the fitness of our candidate.
This was 50 brilliant, so forcible and so effect
I've an argument that we are glad it has been

Speaker of the next Democratic House OF Rep
resentatives. The same natural sequence Oh
thought which led from Butler to Cox TOOK
| General Rosecrans from Cox to Nr. Denis
| Kearney, and we learn from this interview
| that the General himself after declining the
nomination for Mayor of San Francisco con-
sented to run for Congress with the avowed
aobject of bringing Denis Kearney's benighted
afollowers back to common sense" This ne
says he succeeded in doing, and the result Is
that Kearney having nothing to do is COM
PEELED to work for the railroad monopolles
which he formerly attacked.
AS to Presidential candidates, the General Is
quite gushing, so far as he goes. He has no
candidate-to speak of-and he finds ready
objections to those who have been named by
others. Mr.. Tilden will no doubt be Interested
in the photograph which the General makes OF
him. "The young men of the party" he says,
swami to make an aggressive campaign and
awant an aggressive leader. They want no
super respectable old fogy who is neither black
@nor white, fish nor flesh-a sort of animated
sgilly without any backbone" And in order
that there may be no mistake about his mean
ing he adds: Perhaps you may perceive that
"Mr. Tllden does not exactly fill the bill OF
these requirements" Judge Hoady, who Is
the present "hen on " in Ohio will be glad to
know that the General thinks "he will make
aan excellent Governor" but that he "lacks
"a national reputation, and has not been long
SenOugh affiliated with the Democratic party"
u We want man." saws the General, born
"and bred in the Democracy, not who has
"passed over to us from the Republican ranks"
That ends Hoadly. AS to Judge Field, the
General says he is not candidate. lie
"probably knows that California would not
Support him. I" He received few votes at
" the Cincinnati Convention from the Cali
fornia delegatiOn,' continued the General,
abut the persons who cast them were marked
amen after that. One of them, bright young
"lawyer, was n member of our political club,
"and it required all my influence to prevent
"hs expulsion"
The reporter did not ask the General if he
was II candidate himself, bat the Editor of The
World, in which paper the interview appears
after remarkIng that "there could hardly be
"better illustration of the unity and harmony
switch mark the Democratic party" than it
furnishes-gently lets tine old hero" down by
expressing the "regIet that he does not live
"nearer to the centres of political activity from
switch the people prefer to select their candi-
"datesn Our own Judgment is that if tho Cen
eral were fully convinced that living nearer
the centres of political activity would make
any difference he would lose no time in moving.

The WOrld remarks that " all that the Democratic
party asks is to be judged by its works" On the
contrary, it Is well known that the Democratic
party has not gone into campaign for the last ten
years or more without claiming the benefit of the
statute of limitations. It's works are mostly in the
nature OF mlll-stones-very largo mil-stones that
have an unpleasant habit of chnging to its neck
and dragging 1t under.
Freedom. Free Men, Free Soil Free Speech" 1t
not the Democratic party that raised that
shout back in go Oh no! 1t was not that kind
of party. IL was party that took no interest in
such free things. But let Democracy have It's due.
To-day finds it striking an earnest blow for free
dom" in Ohio and Iowa. Not for free men. not for
free SOIL not for free speech But for free rum. 1t
was said Of a certain dinner that everything was
sour but the vinegar" Democracy's record on free
dom is equally brilliant.
One of the current poets inquiries. where is the
Fount of Youth I" Unless Colonel Watterson IS
mistaken. the fount can be found in Mr. Tildens
back yard.
The Coarie-Journdl asserts that Judge Hoady
appears TO be the only candidate for Governor of
ONO" Well. on the plausible theory that Foraker
Is already as good as an elected Governor of Ohio,
Hoadly may claim such a distinction.
The Washington Post remarks that eff there eve
was time when the Democratic party should have
made a national campaign on the fraud issue, that
time went by three years ago. In this rushing
world the tide of events be backed up let
men who have missed their chance catch on" It's
very true. And equally true of party that has
missed It's chances. The Post might have added
that the tide of events cannot be backed up for
party that has been missing chances for the past
twenty five years to catch on. The best thing the
Democratic party do is to dIsband 1t has " lost
its chance" Ii never can catch on"
Senator Morgan was quite right in saving in
recent interview that a Democratic candidate must
be just now popular with the masses-an idol of
the hour" Take the case of Judge Hoadly in Ohio
lie may not be popular with the masses" but lie
is certainly their idol OF the hour They called
for their jug or naught," and he stepped to the
front.
little than six months in Office. and the entire
Democratic press Is crying Turn the rascas out"
The ninth resolution In tho platform of the Vlr-
giuia Bourbons expresses their intexi5ie opposition
to "Bossism," which they say "behts only the
minions of tyrauts and which, at war with every
principle Of honor. maEliness and republican tree
dom, has been but recently introduced into Vir-
ginia only to corrupt, degrade AMI disgrace her,"
They are undoubtedly quite correct in their denun-
citation of 4" Bossism' recently introducedn
but for people who clung so long To a system SIM
liar but infinitely worse their indig nation sounds
a lit tie strange.

If the British Medical Association succeeds In
improving the medical and sanitary manage
ment of Atlantic steamers, it will accomplish
needed reform. There is no doubt an unne-
cessary sacrifice of life on board emigrant YES
sells. There has been too much e1ort on tne
mart Of some lines to cram their vessels to the
utmost capacity with steerage passengers, eAer-
cising no discrimination, accepting all WHO

and concerning themselves about nothing ex-
cept that the passage money is paid. Inc slch

of proper hospital accommodations and meulcai

in the passage of the Deuster bill, toremedy TINS
state Of affairs by compelling vessels to be pro-
yided with sufficient berths, light and air ana
hospital accommodations, but the effort mas
been ONLY partally successful. If the English
Government will now properly supplement the
efforts of our Government, the needed sanitary
precautions may be enforced.
A wise provision in the city charter requires
the heads of all departments so to regulate inc
expenditures, for any purpose or object that
the same shall not in any one year exceed
the amount appropriated by the Board OF Es-
innate and ApportiOnment for such purpose
cor object" 1t has been the custom to evade
that provision by securing transfers from I'M
expended balances CT appropriations made for
previous years. President Asten sensibly pro-
tested in the Board yesterday against the con-
tinuance of that practice. 1t is useless for the
Board to take up time in making appropria-
lions for a specified purpose If IA department
head is to be allowed loosely to exceed the APP
preparation by resorting to a device of tins kind.
Unexpenied balances should be covered into
the city treasury at the close of the year, &C
cordng to the intent of the city charter. In
stead of complying with that intent there were.
on January / last, unexpended balances OF
S5,2S2,O5 on the Controllers books, cover
ing a period of thirteen years. With such
fund to draw from Board of Estimate and APP
portionment. organized for political purpose,
could by majority vote increase the funds OF
a favored department to an extent not con-
tempated by law. The first step in municipal
economy should be that of keeping the expen-
dtures within the appropriations FOL the year.

We trust that the hopes of Mr. Tuke's COM
mittee in regard to assisted Irish emigration,
will prove delusive, if this country is to be
the objective point. The committee wants
State aid to be continued some years, so as
thoroughly to relieve the congested districts"
That kind of immigration is not sufficiently
attractive to foster desire here for its con-
tinuauce for years, or even months. Immigrants
who have the ability to pay their own way,
and the pluck to start out of their own ac
cord, are the kind wanted here. II would be
q good thing if we could put up an effective
sign on Castle Garden that "none others
need apply"
The text of the treaty with Chill. signed by
Islesias in behalf of Peru, shows that the vic
tors have driven a hard bargain. The device
for plebiscte in the territory of Tacna and
africa, after 1t has been held by Chill ten
years. to decide its future destiny, will not
deceive the Peruvians. 1t would be about as
sasy to take the territory away from Chill
under such circumstances as for the Repubi-
cans to carry Mississippi with Bourbon Dem
ocrahc election officials. In either case the
large majority of the voters would undoubt-
edly be members Of the defeated party; but
that would have no effect on the result as an

However, it is one thing to make treaty
under such circumstances, and quite another
thing to carry it into effect.
The Health officers of the city need to be
unusually vigllant to prevent the introduction

taken at Quarantine. DR.. Smiths order in re-
gard to the importation of rags from
Egypt is timely and should be rigidly enforced.
A case of yellow fever is reported in Philade-
phia, and 1t will be well for the city authori-
ties to keep close watch on that disease.
Quarantine is not always sufficient to pre-
vent the spread of disease. Isoa-
