THE House yesterday unceremoniously
sat down on Brother Klotz's little bill to
give every man seat in the street cars.
The House, and especially Mr.. Robson,
who is even more rotund than his Pennsyl-
vania friend. should have had more con-
sideration for Brother Klotz. 1t is not
an edifying spectacle to see ponderous
Statesman en- route to his onerous duties at
the Capitol, depending upon the uncertain
security of car strap for his safe arrival.
But if the rest can stand it we are confident
the burly and genial Klotz can.

RetributiOn.

The very highest authority assures us
that whatsoever man soweth that
shall he also reap''-and the Republican
party is just now in a condition to an.
preciate the eternal applicability and
fitness of this memorable truth. Its
crushing defeat in New York is attrib.
uted to Federal interference and dicta.
ton" The Administration, we are
told, neglected its own proper business
and went out of the domain of National
duties to manage the local politics of a
State. 1t imposed on the people of New
York candidates not of their own choice.
IN spite of their vehement protests, and
there was nothing left for the party but
to resent this dictation by defeating the
Administration 8 ticket.
This is not the true explanation of the
New York defeat; sufficient proof that
1t IS not is that it leaves the similar de-
feats in eight other States unaccounted
for. Still. as the Republicans them.
selves affect to find in Federal interfer.
ence the cause of the New York catas-
trophe, let us admit it. But did not the
Administration come honestly by it's
habit of interference? Is it not an es-
sential and inseparable part of Repub-
hcanlsm? Historians tell us that the
Roman pro-consuls and generals learn
ed and practiced in the provinces, with
the hearty approval of the senate, the
lawiess tactics which they afterwards
brought to the capital and employed
with such effectiveness against the sem
ate and its patrician supporters. Do
not Republicans recognize the fitness
OF the retribution, and the signal ex-
hibition of the law of it in their own
case? Federal interference and dicta.
ton in State affairs is no new thing. II
was practiced in the Southern States
with brutal disregard of the wishes of
the people all through the Grant AID:
ministration. And it did not limit it.
self to nominating tickets; it elected
them. and installed them by force. 1t
made and unmade Legislatures, Gov.
errors and Governments-all with the
shouting approval of the whole Repub-
lican press and party of the North. II
is not strange that a practice so well
learned, so heartily ind0rsed and so eff
fectively used in one section of the
Union, should invade the other section;.
for what party sows that will it reap.
Inc harvest of disasters gathered by the
Republicans in New York was. them.
selves being witnesses. the product OF
the seed sowed in the South from 1869
to 1876. 1t was the Grant Republican
Administration that set the example of
Federal interference and dictation
which the Arthur Republican Admin
istration initiated. The dictation in
New York was the legitimate progeny
OF dictation in Georgia and Louisiana
the only difference being that the
authors in one case are the victims in
the other.

A Western Mothers Plan.

An English gentleman, who passed
many months hDnting among the Rocky
Mountains, says his first genuine i'm
preston OF the West came while he was
riding over an arid plain and from a
squealing baby. 1t revealed to him the
ingenuity with which Western woman
adapts herself to circumstances and
makes the most of her limited resources.
''There was nothing" to say, very
peculiar about the appearance of tn s
baby that saw Just ahead of me. II
was not overburdened with garments,
and was strapped, in Indian fashion, to
a board about two feet long and one
foot broad.
The board and the baby were lean
ing against the log wall of frontier
shanty on its shady side. There was
nobody near. The baby seemed very
happy. Its little arms were free and
kept up constant movement
AS my horse came nearer / saw that
some strings were dangling about the
baby's neck, and that one was tied to
the big toe of one of its rosy little feet.
81 was puzzled. Dismounting, had
the curiosity to examine the tape ar
rangement. The child was sucking at
a bit of raw pork, about the size of a
large walnut. This was tied to one end
of the string, while the other end was
fastened to the child's foot. A second
piece of Irvine, knotted to the board
over its head. prevented the pork from
falling to the ground, should the child
drop it.
Suddenly the baby grew very red
in the face. Then its eyes filled with
tears, and its little arms beat the all
with frantic energy. AT that moment
the mother made her appearance

cried.

piled. tersely.
''At this instant the infantile legs be-
gan to work. One kick, two kicks. and
there on the bib lay the piece of pork,
Jerked from The baby's throat by the
string tied to the big toe.''
q Amt You ever seen this afore, mis-
ter?" asked the mother, Observing the
Eng lishman's surprised looks.
q" NO." he answered. slowly.
"Then kind o. remembrance it.
Mayhaps Yer wife won't 90 back on it. ~

day; ! have seen that baby in hun

An Enlightened Public Opinion.

The recent elections show an enlight-
ened and virtuous public opinion, which
IS the safety of our free institutions
The River and Harbor bill swindle, the
shameless assessments to raise money to
corrupt the elections, the base prosti-
tuition OF the powers of the Government
to partisan purposes, the countenance
and aid given to reputation of State in
ueotedness, and even to final and con-
elusive awards and judgments of inter-
national tribunals, destructive of all
confidence in the public faith, the bri-
berry and corruption of the trial by jurv
by the Department of Justice itself; in
short, the general decentralization and
extravaganza in the administration of
the General Government alarmed and
reused the people, and they have re-
buked the ranking corruption of party
ism in high places. Intelligence and
public virtue among the people consti-
tute the only safe reliance for the public
welfare and liberties of the country.
Our political system. truly said to be
the fairest fabric of civil government
that ever rose to animate the hopes of
civilized man. is yet liable to be corrupt
ed and destroyed by the wranglings and
connections of partisan leaders. The
history of popular government in other
ages and countries has shown the
dangers arising from the partisan
struggles and devices OF ambition and
cupidity. Forewarned by the examples
IN other countries. our people will be
found forearmed against the dangers
which beset their Republic. American
