had a splendid military record. But for
present purposes it was under the wrong
flag"
And then the Southern caucus OF Demo-
cratic Representatives were compelled to put
a muzzle upon themselves, by passing a reso-
luton hat they would not dismiss the
wounded Union soldiers placed upon the
payroll by a Republican House and Repub-
lican officers. What a thrilling spectacle for
Northern soldiers! A lot Of solid South rep
resentatives held back from kicking Union
soldiers into the street by a caucus resolu-
ton passed for buncombe, and not as an ex-
preston of real faith. The Democratic
'tagger" again, chained for a time by a paltry
caucus vote. But the appetite is there.

Democratic party will follow up Carlisle's
election with any tariff reform" And Mr..
Mcdonald, who has spent himself for free
trade, and has exhausted all his great ability
to prove that the protective principle in a
tariff is absolutely unconstitutional, openly
proclaims himself in favor of "a tariff for
revenue, with incidental protection" and as
serts that this sis what Mr.. Carlisle's cleo
ton means;'' wherefore he is greatly
pleased. To use Mr.. Ben. F. Johnson's Ian
guagc-'no man is more tickleder" than he.
In view of all this, it is pertinent and i'm
portant to know what all tine cackle over
Mr.. Carlisle's election is about? If it does
not mean the triumph of the free-trade prin-
cipie, which is the only thing for which Mr..
Carlisle is at all noted as a public man, it
must mean the triumph of the solid South,
of which he was the choice, and by whose
votes he was nominated and elected. If it
does not mean free trade it does mean
the solid South, for Mr.. Carlisle
himself expressly said his nomination
was not a compliment to himself personally,
but to the idea" he represented. He and
his friends for him now assert that it does
not mean free trade, or "a tariff for revenue
only" 1t must, therefore, mean the solid
South, taking only Democratic testimony for
a guide. But for ourselves, we choose to
place a common sense, plain, easy interpreta-
ton upon the election, and that is, that it
means both hostility to the protective prin-
ciple in our American industrial system, and
reassertion of Southern supremacy in the
councils and policy of the Democratic party.
This is the Interpretation placed upon it by
the country, and that is what hurts the De-

SIMPLY putting a law upon the statute
book does not seem to be all that is neces-
sary; neither does the most stringent law
work salvation of itself. We find in the
Montpelier (Vermont) Waterman of last
week this paragraph:
public sentiment is at present more than
usually aroused by the amount of drunken
ness on our streets on Sunday. People are
annoyed by the hilarity and rowdyism which
exist Upon the most prominent streets, and
which are, in a large measure, the direct re-
suit OF the sale of intoxicating liquors. the
drug stores are given the right to sell medi-
cines or putup prescriptions in case ofneces-
sity, but it is alleged that liquors are sold in
disobedience to the law. Last Sunday one
of the saloons was open during the day"
This does not sound much better than a
report would from Indianapolis; indeed, in
some respects it is greatly worse than the
worst that could be truthfully said of us.
When we have no other law at all than the
higher law of His Awful Majesty, the super
intendent of police. Vermont does not seem
to be holding a great advantage over 1ndi-
ana.

Mr.. WILLIAM R. MORRISON, the Warrick
nj the Southern House OF Representatives, is
an out-and-out candidate for the presidency,
and the election of Mr.. Carlisle is to be made
to DO duty in helping the Morrison boom.
A Washington special says that Mr.. Morrison
is much more regarded by revenue reform
ers'' than is Mr.. Mcdonald, and that the Nc
Donald men already see that their candidate
is to be squelched and Morrison built up at
his expense. Music by the orchestra appears
to be beginning rather more promptly than
was anticipated.

LOCAL option spreads in South Carolina.
A Charleston telegram states that "fve OF
the principal towns in South Carolina held
municipal elections, on Saturday, and
elected prohibition tickets. The question
has gone out of politics, and prohibition is
spreading surely and rapidly over the State.
Columbia, Charleston and Greenville are the
only important towns in which licenses are
given for the retail of spirituous liquors.
The Democratic plan with respect to the
liquor traffic, now in successful operation in
the States of Georgia, South Carolina, Ken
lucky, and Missouri, is probably the one to
be universally adopted. Leave the question
with the people in their primary capacity,
and not make it in any sense a party ques-
ton.

washington Special.
1t is stated that last summer Henry
Poor, compiler of the Railway Manua
became satisfied that the Northern Pae
Railroad Company was concealing a la.
floating Indebtedness, and that the stock
must suffer a heavy decline. He formed d
syndicate and sold stock short to the amount,
it is said, of 40, 600 shares. The stock was
above so and went below 40. The profits
were in the neighborhood of $1,000, 600.
When the facts came out Poor's estimate of
Indebtedness was found to have beeu almost
absolutely correct. When the stock began
to go down it seemed to receive mysterious
assistance in its downward tendency. Tn is
is now believed to have been a result Of
large sales by President Willard, who is said
to have profted to the extent of millions by
pursuing the policy of Jay Gould in dealing
with his own stocks. p

CUMULATIVE PUNIsHMENTs.

A short paragraph appeared, a few days
since, announcing the application of the
new criminal law of Illinois, which provides
for inficting the extreme penalty for any
given offense upon a second conviction, and
imprisonment for not less than fifteen years
for the third. In the particular case re-
ferred to there was a conviction for ten
years for an offense that might otherwise
have called for not more than two or three.
This law demands more than the mere pass
ing notice a Geographic mention is likely
to attract. 1t deserves the most
careful consideration of philanthropists and
statesmen. The increasing boldness 81 of crime
and the ill-success of all attempts to reform
professional criminals are forcing to the
front the suggestion that, probably, philan-
thropy has got the better of judgment
in our dealings with those who
seem determined to make us
speak of them as the criminal class.
If a man has deliberately made up his mind
to live by stealing, why should the State be

community with the increased insecurity of
life and property by allowing such a man to
run at large at all? We have a case at hand.
Only last week a professional thief, who had
barely got home from the penitentiary after
serving a short sentence, was convicted of
larceny and again returned for two years.
Why not make it fourteen, the extreme
length? Who expects the man to ever be
anything but a thief Why should not the
community be protected against such Grim
inals by the shortest and cheapest methods?
Two years hence Jack Trainor will turn up
again, and may commit a hundred aggrava-
ted %offenses before he is detected.
We hail it as one of the hopeful signs OF
the times that the sickly sentimentality
which, a quarter of a century ago, was in
clined to butter both sides of a criminals
bread, is giving way to the more sensible
notion that crime must be punished, no
condoned, and that the criminals who refuse
to reform must be restrained. We take oc-
casion to cal the attention of Indiana states
men to this new code of Illinois. We may
watch its workings, but it will do no harm
to try the experiment by the courts which
have already ample authority.

THE CHARITY ORGANIZATION.

The Charity Organization will this week
make its annual appeal to the public for
funds necessary to carry on the work of the
society. To those who understand the aim of
the association and what it has accomplished
in past seasons any commentator may seem
superfuous. A few words in its behalf, how
ever, addressed to newcomers, and to others,
benevolently disposed, who have given the
matter little thought, may not be out of
place. The first object of the society, as in
dictated by the name, was to organize its forces
in a way to prevent indiscriminate and
injudicious giving. To do this required
case. Fault has been found by thoughtless
critics because money was spent in this way
rather than in actual outlay upon the poor;
but this is a short-sighted view. The con-
slant aim has been to aid the poor to help
themselves-the truest charity that
can be offered-and to do this,
a knowledge of the circumstances and sur
roundings of each applicant for assistance
was absolutely necessary. If he was found
to be in need aid was given promptly; if a
fraud, a record of such fact was made, rend-
ering it useless for him to repeat his de-
mands. The result of this process of Fseed-
ing out the unworthy applicants has been
made evident in the disappearance from our
streets of tramps and chronic beggars. Some
years ago the visits of these gentry were a
daily occurrence, both at private and bust
ness houses. Now they are seldom seen. To
test the honesty of these visitors it is only
necessary to direct them to the rooms of the
association. The Friendly INN has been
provided for the entertainment of transient
poor, and a tramp who is unwilling to work
will betake himself to another town with
due haste. This doing away of street beg
gary, which had become a great
nuisance, has of itself strong
ly recommended the organization
to citizens of all classes, but particularly to
business men, who are unanimous in its
favor. This classification and weeding-out
process, useful as it is, is far from being the
only work of the society, but is supple
mented by that charity which consists in the
distribution of food and clothing to the
needy. The Benevolent Society and the
Flower Mission are both embraced in the
organization, and, together, see that the
wants of the sick and deserving Door are sup
piled and every needed attention bestowed
upon them. The association is unsectarian,
and in no way conflicts with the work of
churches among their own poor. 1t is a
charity which recommends itself to all who
have anything to give, and should be sup
ported literally and with genuine pleasure.

THE "Streets of Paris" is a play which is
said to be creating a great sensation in that
capital, and is expected soon to be brought
out in this country. 1t is said to have high
literary merit; but the great fascination of
the work lies in the tableaux and the daring
of the stage carpenter who devised them,
and not in the efforts of the writer or actors.
Thus does the drama progress.

THE Chicago Tribune, which has been for
years a strong advocate of postal telegraphy,
says of General Gresham's argument upon
this question:
1T does little more than record Judge
Gresham's personal disinclination to recon-
mend the postal telegraph at this time. 1t
gives no sign of any extended investigation
or serious study of the subject, and it will be
found of no value as an argument by those
who are opposed to adding telegraph trans
mission to the postal system. The friends of
that project, therefore, will find no reason to
abandon 1t or to abate the agitation which
has met with such wide popular support by
reason of anything the report contains.
"# = y 1t is clear that the Postmaster.
general, possibly influenced to a large extent
oy the President, underestimate the extent
of public grievance at the hands of the tele-
graph monopoly and the earnestness of the
public demand for the governments protec-
ton. But he should either have remained
silent about the matter or else he should
have fortified his position by arguments bet
ter calculated to command popular respect
than that which he has brought forward as
the only reason he can find for condemning
the movement for a postal telegraph"
On the contrary, the Chicago Herald says;
"If the government can go into that bust
ness, it can also operate railways and other
public necessities. and he does not believe that
such things are either the duty or province
0 fanny government, and especially founded
upon such principles as ours. The views OF
the Postmaster-genera are sound and will be
shared by all who believe that the admins
tration of government should be as circum-
scribed as the absolute necessities and liber-
ties of the people can permit"
