In for the War.

The National Republican Committee
succeeded admirably in getting out at the
same hole they went in. After delaying
the report and decision they were re-
quired to make more than a year beyond
the time allotted by the convention of
1880, they have at last met and decided
that the world hasn't moved and that all
things remain as they were. Territories
which can't furnish a single electoral
vote are TO be represented according TO
and States hopelessly Demo-
cratic are to be allowed sufficient repre-
TO nominate candidate entirely
TO the Republicans of the
States which must furnish the votes if he
is elected at all

Speaking of taxed articles the New
York Tribune says: at is safe TO say
that no man OF all the millions who have
bought these articles during the past year
was aware that he was bearing a burden.
Nor can anybody say how much cheaper,
if any, these articles would be to retail
buyers were the tax entirely removed"
To which the St. Louis Republican aptly
replies: sit is also likely that few realize
the vast pressure Of the atmosphere, but
it is potent reality for all that, and ar
guments with respect TO it are hardly ever
based on the fact that it is a generally I'M
observed phenomenon. Not many people
could tell why the weight of sixty years
is greater than that of thirty, but those
who reach three score give way under the
burdeh."

Chambers BugIe Call.


If the committee had boldly pronounced
in favor of a faithful execution of the civil
service reform act, and of the practical
extension of its principles as far as they
may be applicable, and if it had said an
emphatic word for the reform of our reve-
nue. system and a just distribution of the
public burdens, it would have done in
finitely more to resuscitate the old spirit
and to win recruits than by inviting all
the world to 'jOin" in behalf Of virtue
generally. 1t is not with thrice-burned
powder that the old Republican fervor can
be set ON fire again. The party has to
show that It is cOnspicuously up to the

The only practical question in American
politics at the present time is the reduc-
ton Of taxation. In this question all per-
sons. except the privileged few who are
benefited by the taxes that are levied upon
the necessaries OF life, are deeply inter-
ested. 1t is safe to sag that of the 55,OOO,-
600 people in this country 81. OOO, 600 would
derive great advantage from the removal
of taxes on food, clothing, fuel. lHfsber,
household utensils, farming tools, build
ing materials. and many other things that
are essential to human comfort. Taxa
ton Of these articles increases their cost
60 the consumer and adds TO the expense
of living. Workingmen find it impossible
20 save anything for this reason.

There are no doubt many abuses in the
patent system Of this country, and large
proportion grow out of the loose construc-
ton of the law in the Patent Office. If
there were no other evidence of this, the
fact that there are about 100000 patents,
100000 applications and caveats on record
and 400 new applications every week
would be sufficient TO establish it. There
are not a million of appliances in this
country which are at once original and
useful. Yet the law enacts that aninven-
tiOn must be both ''new and useful'' to be
patentable. The Patent Office is alto
gether too liberal in its fayors, But one
examiner passes upon an application.
The consequence is that a number of pat
ents are issued which cover the same de-
vice, others in great quantity which can
not be protected, and still others in which
the element of practical usefulness is alb
sent altogether.

Enforcement of State Debts.

Statesman Moore, of Tennessee, who,
we believe, possesses considerable ability
as a manipulation of dry goods, has taken
the reputation bull by the horns, and
proposes to compel States to be honest
by command of the Constitution
of the United States. He
would have tine eleventh amend
ment repealed, and permit States to be
sued by their creditors. The proposition
or its face is supremacy ridiculous, and if
accepted would wipe out the individuality
OF the States, since they could not enforce
judgment against themselves and could
only be made to pay by being put in the
hands of the Federal Government as re-
ceiver, and even then the Federal authori-
ties would be puzzled to make good the
DEGREES of the courts.
The question which Mr.. Moore would
settle in the way proposed is, in a
measure, pending in the Supreme Court
in test case brought by the State of New
York as assignee of the claims of one OF
its citizens against the State of Louisiana.
But aside from the expected decision,
whatever it may be, so great student OF
the Constitution as Daniel Webster gave
it as his opinion that States were morally,
but only morally, bound to pay their OBJ
legations. Statesman Moore may have
conceived this brilliant stroke, or, per-
haps, it was . suggested to him
by genius of kindred power,
but if he thinks the people of any State
in the Union would knowingly accept his
proposition, he mistakes their temper. To
cOncede such power to a States creditors
would be the height of folly.
Reputation is mquestionably crimi-
nally dishonest, but the remedy for it is to
limit the power of States, counties and
municipalities to contract debts, and
moreover it works cure for itself
in the impairment OF credit wherever
practiced.
1t is to be hoped that Mr.. MOOre's pro-
position will be consigned to the pigeon
holes by the committee having it in
charge, and be left to slumber there with
kindred propositions that have been
sprung upon the public by cranks and
quacks. Moore will get him back to his
yardstick, which it is pity he laid down
TO nose as a statesman.
