What the Leading Journ allsts OF the
Nations Metropolis Said Yesterday.

NEW YORK, Sept 4.-The World, com
menting on the Missouri liquor law, says:
"Gov. Crttondens anxiety In the matter
is explained by the report which credits
him with Senatorial aspirations. This
seems to be reasonable explanation OF an
anxiety about the enforcement OF one par
ticular law and an indifference about other
and more important laws. According to
| his own testimony he never thought aboul
| enforcing the Sunday law until 1t became
part Of a liquor law, and he seems totally
oblvious Of the fact that in Missouri the
plain provisions Of the constitution against
railroad consultations are disrcgarded
every day in the year.
The sun says: "The Cincinnati bank
crs and brokers are estimated to
have at least six or seven millions
OF dollars invested in warehouse re-
cepts, with little prospect Of selling the
whiskey on an oyerstocked market. The
predicamcnt IL not pleasant one, but it
was sek-inyited. II II be 'contiscation' TO
collect this reasonable tax on whiskey what
is the propcr name for the duties collected
on imported Goods? Perhaps John Sher-
man will answer for the whiskey ring, a.
he has been Secretary Of the Treasury and is
now very rich senator. y
The Times says: "Tae courageous course
OF GOV. Hamilton has added Maryland to
the column Of doubtful states for this year
at least. In recent letter the governor
exposed the corruption OF Democratic
politics in that state numerically and with
out reserve, In speech which he
promised to make at Baltimore this week
he will have something further to say about
the rascals in his party, and, 1t is said,
will name some OF them among
others, Senator Gornan. His course has
made Republican SUCCESS extremely prOba-
bic. Those Democrats OF New York who
are fond Of calling themselves respectable
would do well to study Gov, Hsmilton's
methods OF party publication. -
The Herald saws: There Is undoubted-
" great accumulation Of surplus revenue
in the Treasury. With money begging at 2
and 2Ipcr cent, no evil result need be fear
ed, other than the influence this fund may
have upon the action OF Congress and upon
those who have real or supposed claims upon
the Government, which they think ought
to be recognized, merely because the Gov
crnmcut is rich, But il is not to be expect
ed that the present condition OF trade will
long continue, and II would have shown wise
sta csmunship n the last Congress had made
provision for the turure contingencies.
Meantime the finances OF the country are In
haply 90 lucky condiior prosperous In
spite Of dangers and fiscal errors, -
The Tribune says. "lt is better fortune
than the Republicans really deserve, that
they have no financial trouble on hand this
fall, as consequence OF the unwiSc neg
lcct OF the silver question. They wisely
provided for reform OF the civil service,
and revised the tariff, and suppressed a
river and harbor bill, and curtaiIed appro-
pria.ions, but the coinage OF useless silver
dollars they suffered TO continue, though II
involved sheer waste OF over 2,OOO,W0
Ter month. Had grave financial and in
duslrlal trouble resulted this fall II would
have cost them many votes In the coming
elections. After December the response
blli,y win rest with the Democratic party,
and we shall see how II viii he met. -
