HIGHER MEDLC1L SLAND1RD.

Hitherto every school of medicine in the
untry, being dependent for its existence upon
the fees of its students, has been subjected to
the temptation of counting popularity by max
ing its diploma easy of attainment. A few med
zeal schools. and among them the College OF
Physicians and Surgeons, have maintained a
reputable standard in spite of this temptation.
They have been fortunate in securing the dis
interested services of eminent instructors and
they have yearly graduated many young ply
sicians of high character and attainments and
pure ambition. But they have not had the firm
ness to refuse q diploma in every instance
where it was undeserved. Ii this be true OF the
best institutions in the country, what shall
be said Of the worst 1t is disgraceful fact
that scores of embyro impostOrs are annually
turned loose upon society from so-caed schools
of medical science, with full authority to prey
upon the msfortunes of their fellow-men
OF course an ignorant indolent, self-indulgent
icentiate may possibly be transformed into a
useful physician. but he is far more likely to
degenerate into a conscenceless quack
Mr. Vanderbilts gift is building fun lone.
but there is reason to hope that it may suggest
to other rich men the advantage of liberal
contributions to n general endowment. Ana
even If this should not be the case we are glad
to believe that the institution which VIII soon
be able to oCler to students of medicine and sur
gerry better facilities for acquiring knowledge
and skill than can be found elsewhere in the
country will sternly refuse its diploma to any
not clearly and thoroughly qualified to receive
il. With greater independence in the school
let u, exact higher attachments in the scholar.

7UE ono coRRrP1loN FUND.

On the eve of the Ohio election the Democrats
confident of victory. They had carefully dstiib
upd throughout the state much larger sum
of money than had come into their hands IN any
previous campaign, On iis possible effect they
had the assurance IA claim victor, IN ed'
vance, They knew that this snm reserved foi
uso on election day WA three tlnicH greater Than
the Republicans had been able 10 raise foi the
entire work oi the canvass
Hut the result showed that Notwithstanding the
loss from 1850 of 1000 Prohibition Votes, the
Republicans carried the State by nearly $4,000
majority over the Democratic candidate for
member of the Board of Public Works. The
Democratic had the advantage, also, of de-
crease of nearly 1000 In the Greenback vote of
1880. Against the unprecedented and unscru-
pulous opposition of the Democrats. who had
possession of the election machinery, and the
aid of the Prohibition and Greenhack votes, the
Republicans come out of Ohio with nearly the
same majority as was obtained In G riield's own
State in the October election OF 1880!
There is one phase of the canvass in that State
which is peculiarly notifying to the taxpayers
of this city. The Democratic corruption fund
was swelled by the addition OF large sums sent
from New-YOrk. Much Of that money was
wrongfully extracted from the city treasury
through Grover Clevelands political partner.

BUsyNESS rs. GAMBLING.

Idiots and Democrats have said that "the
business men Of New York. were sohdiy
opposed to Mr.. Blaine. The meeting on Mon
div proved that they were not. 1t went further,
and proved that Mr.. Blaine was stronger
among the business men OF NEW fork, IMAM
any other candidate Of either party since the
war. Some have left the Republican party
who will be ashamed of it. More have joined
the Republican party-whO will be proud OF IL.
Mr.. Blaine did not prove as strong as other
candidates have been among the pure gam
blcrs. Men who have been betting that the
country would be ruined, and that wheat would
be worth nothing bushel and New York Cen
trail less than 20, are not for Blaine. Ihey
ought not to be. Cleveland is the man for them.
But " the business men of New York " are not
mainly gamblers. That is the fact which the
Cleveland managers overlooked. Most OF the
business men of New York are engaged in the
honest and legitimate exchange of products.
1t IS noticed by a Cleveland organ that large
proportion of the Blaine meeting on Monday
came from above the City Hail. Well, if true
that would be all right Below the City Hall
the legitimate traders may be outnumbered by
the gamblers, though we doubt it. Above the
City Hall the gamblers are few, and the Demo
cratic business men. outside OF importing
houses and agents of foreign manufacturers,
are as scarce as hens teeth.
II does not pay, gentlemen. The importers
and the other people who are supremacy inter-
ested in foreign trade, cannot control this city
except by the votes of Irish Democrats, who
have allowed themselves to be used by foreign
managers for foreign interests. This year these
Irish Democrats decline to vote as Great
Britain wishes. Meanwhile, the business men
of New-York, who are Americans and not
agents of foreign houses, are more strongly for
Mr.. Blaine than they have been for any other
Republican candidate in twenty years.

W1cFs At ROyDOUT AGAIN.

report out of which the Democratic papers
have lately been getting great comfort has been
going the rounds, to the effect that some
laborers at Rondout now receive only 90 cents
day. Accepting this without inquiry, we
proceeded to show that distressingly low as this
figure was-so low as to be almost unheard OF
in the United States--it was yet far above the
average laborers wages in London. and half
larger than the average wages for all classes III
Germany.
Now it turns out that nobody in ROndout is
paid 80 little. The editor of The Kingston
Freeman telcgraphs that the lowest wages paid
laborers in Rondout is 81 20 day, and that
the very lowest known in any, even the
remotest part of Ulster County, Is 81 10 n day.
Compare this with Is cents dry for hod car
riers In London, 10 cents day for butchers, 81
cents "A day for porters. Compare it with the
average wages of 81 cents IA day in Germany.
Note these foreign wages, and then don't forget
that In that very locality the Democrats have
chosen for their test the lowest wages known
are 81 20 day.

THE LEADER or 4 FREE PEOPLE,


Mr. Hendricks political managers in Indiana
have been alarmed by the results of Mr.. Blaine's
triumphant canvass in Ohio. They know that
they cannot afford to have this wonderful orator
90 through the State and excite the enthusiasm
of the masses. Wherever he spoke in OHIO he
strengthened the Republican cause and in
creased the majority. They have perceived that
the effect of his oratory and presence in Indiana
will he the same, unless something IL done 10
counteract his personal influence. Accordingly
they planned countcr-demonstralon at Fort
Wayne Democratic meeting WA advertised
to take place nj the very hour OF his reception.

FOR pROHIBITONISTS TO CONSIDER.

FOR PROHIBTTIONISTS TO CONSIDER.
In several counties in this State last fall the
Prohibitionsts nominated separate candidates
for Assembymen, instead of supporting the
Republican nominees AS a direct result,
Democrats were elected, and the certain anti
Prohibition vote in the Legislature was just that
much larger.
In Ohio this year the temperance men worked
with the other Republicans; and Judge john
son, who was particularly obnoxious TO the
liquor interest, was reelected by "a larger
plurality than any one else on the Republican
ticket The Democratic party, through It's plat
form, its candidate for President, and its press,
this year declares hearty hostility to the tenn
perance cause. The Albany Argus, Chairman
Manning's organ. calls Mr. Cleveland an anti
Prohibition Democratic Governor who has
"stood like a rock between the zeaots who use
prohibition rs an instrument oi persecution
and their victims" Now, either this man or
Mr.. Blaine will be the next President of the
United States. Mr.. st. John cannot possibly
be elected. The only practical questions for the
Prohibitionists to ask themselves, therefore,
are: Do we want Mr.. Cleveland for President ?
And, if not, how shall we best defeat him. 1t
may assist them i'm answering the latter ques-
ton to compare their methods and success in
this State last year with their methods and
success in Ohio last week

MR.. THOMPSONS TICKET.

Hubert O. Thompson has put his ticket in the
field with William X. Grace for Mayor at the
ton of the list. There are some highly rcspecta-
bic names among the nominations. Indeed, the
ticket has good deal more of responsibility
about il than Mr.. Thompsons candidates are
usually possessed of. Ii will be little pathetic
to see so much rcspectability 80 badly beaten
rs this will be- For this Is Mr.. Clcveland's
ticket as well as Mr. ThOmpson's and the
majority of the voters Of this town have
made up their minds that they will have
nothing to do with any candidate who repre-
SCENTS either member of that firm. Mondays
magnificent demonstration of the business men
OF Ncw-York in favor of Blaine and Logan was
overwhelming evidence of Cleve!ands weak
ness in this city, if evidence were needed. and
certainly no one who is against Cleveland can
tolerate his political partner.
The honest citizens of NewYork will never
put in the Mayors chair man who owes his
nomination to an Official so stained and spotted
as is our Commissioner of Public Works. They
are determined that so far is their votes can
settle the matter Mr. Thompson shall not be re-
appointed to the Office which he has filled so Ill.
Even if Mr. Grace should put his signature to
a pledge not to reappoint Thompson and
should make that pledge public the commun-
itv will not be satisfied. New-York is bent on
retiring this flihless official to private life and
viii never place mt the head of the city govern
