The Coming Battle.

New York Herald.
We believe the star route verdict will
leave a profound and lasting impression
on the public mind. 1t ought to. The
men declared mot guilty" are of nc con
sequence; but the result of this trial will
justly be held by all thoughtful citizens
as proof that it is high time to make a
change; that the party of great moral
ideas is no longer entitled to their con-
fdence and cannot be safely trusted with
the peoples money. The verdict is, to
be sure, but one of many evidences to
the same effect. The river and harbor
jobs, the Robson navy jobs, the impu-
dent refusal to make adequate reductions
of taxation, the corrupt determination to
compel needless and surplus taxes out of
the peoples pockets, the pension swindle,
the unblushing alliance with all sorts of
monopolies-all these prove hat the re-
publican party has outlived not merely
its usefulness, but its moral sense. But
it probably needed this result of the star
route trials to break the back of the
public's patience.
The presidential campaign of 1884 will
be a battle between the people and the
friends of monopoly and jobbery.

Grant and Lee.
Washington IN. C.) Star.

Washington IN. C) star.
We heard some time ago from a Will
m%ingtonian a story hat is so creditable to
Grant that we " II give it. We had
heard it before, but not in a shape calcu-
lated to give us confidence in its anthem
ITCHY. But as we last heard it, and be-
cause of the circumstantiality attending
it, we may no longer discredit it. After
Lincoln's assassination there was a grow
ing sentiment among extreme men in the
north that the southern leaders must be
punished and the more famous men
hanged. A cabinet meeting was called,
and it was resolved to hang at least Gen.
Lee, and some one or two Others it
may be. Grant, at the head of the
army, was sent for, and was told what
was the action of the cabinet. He DELHI
erately unbuckled his sword, and laying
it upon the table, said: my honor as a
soldier and a mar is pledged to Gen Lee,
and if you take the step proposed / at
once surrender my sword, resign my
commission, and go before the American
people," This firmness and promptness
brought the exteme men to their senses,
and the matter was dropped. We are
assui ed that this story is trustworthy,
and it comes through a channel that en-
titles it to credence. 1t is honorable to
Grant, and shows him in a much grander
light than anything he has ever done as
president.

The late meeting of the democratic
committee brought out the statement
from one of the members that "the party
would have to yield something to the
anti-monopoly clamor." That is what
DIR. J. Sterling Morton thought and
preached last fall, and democratic candi-
dates howled anti-monopoly uutil their
Threats were sore. Several secured their
election or nc other grounds in counties
and districts where the repub-
1icans had an overwhelming ma
jority. But Of all the democrats
who went to Lincoln pledged to pass laws
regulating the railroads in their freight
charges and compelling them to pay their
proportion of taxation, less than five toed
the mark when the rolls were called on
important questions. In the light Of
democratic promises, democratic per
formance was too insignificant to descrv,
mention. "The anti-monopoly clamor'
will never be stilled by such yielding a.
Nebraska anti-monopolists need expec

ENGLAND has offered her services as
mediator in the Tonquin trouble between
France and China and the prospects are
that the difficulty may be settled without
. resort to. arms. The Chinese govern
ment demands acknowledgment Of her
right to exact tribute from the Anameso
and in return offers to throw open the
Red River to foreign trade. As France
already claims a controlling influence in
the country the issue resolves itself into
aquestion Of who shall squeeze tho natives
out Of an annual tribute. Anam comprises
Tonquin, Cochen China, part of the
Cambodia and various islands in the
Chinese sea. 1t is said to have been
conquered by the Chinese in 234, b. c.,
and was held by them for four hundred
years, when they relinquished control.
In l406 they reconquered it but again
abandoned it in 1923. After much an
archy Bishop Adrian, a French mission
airy, obtained the friendship of Louis iii
for his pupil Gia-long, the sen of the
nominally reigning monarch, and
with the aid of q few of his
c%ountrymen established Gia-Long on the
throne, who reigned till his death, in
1921, when his son became king. In
consequence Of the persecution of the
Christians war broke out with the French,
who defeated the army of AMMAN, 10000
strong, on April %, 1859, when 800 men
were killed. On June 3, 1862, peac,
was made, when three provinces wer'
coded TO the French and liberation OF
Christians granted. Three provinces
were annexed to the French empire by
