Real Democratic Statesmanship

EeaI Oem CORA TIC > "a CeSNt anSAIp,
Sames IL. McCreery, a very prom
inent member of the New York bar,
and a lifelong Democrat, at a din
ner given in honor of brother pro-
fessionals on the 18th of June, re-
ferred to the political outlook in the
following statesman.like language:
"Either Mr.. Blaine or the nomi-
nee of the Democratic party will be
elected President in November. OPP
position to Mr.. Blaine, if successful,
means Democratic supremacy. Ad-
hitting that no question of princi-
Pile is at stake in the present canvass,
1t therefore becomes simply ques-
ton of honest government and faith
full public service. Neither Mr..
Blaine nor the Democratic nominee

ing him; hence to voter who wants
no office it simply becomes a ques-
ton Of which party can be best
trusted in the control of patronage.
This is answered by an inspection
of the personnel of the two parties.
The great moral question which call
ed into the Republican party at its
birth the wisest and best men of
this Nation, leave it the home of the
earnest and thoughtful citizen, and
whatever may be the crimes against
the party, committed by its friends
in power, it must still be conceded
that in all that makes wise and hon
est government the Republican par
ty offers the greatest security to the
citizen. We must also admit that
while the Democratic party has with
in 1t many good men, its masses are
recruited from the baser elements of
every community, and to place it in
power would simply mean to sub

Following the example set by Mr..
Blaine in his Augusta TRADE, a few OF the
most extreme OF the Republican papers
are expressing some very bitter senti-
ments. They do not take the defeat Of
their party gracefully and amiably. They
act more like pirates who have been ar
rested suddenly in their career Of crime.
Ii was to be expected, OF course, that de-
feat would cause them bitter disappOint-
ment. but it was hardly thought that
they would attempt TO revive and IN
tensifv in the North the sectional feeling
against the South.
1t NAV be that they are alarmed about
the revelations that may be made when
the Democrats begin an Investigation Of
the books OF the Treasury. There j a
very general impression that discoveries
will be made in the departments which
will more than justify all that has been
CHARGED against the Republican party.
These excited Blaine papers pretend 10
think that the Democratic party is not
CAPABLE of directing the government, and
that the country is in danger Of being ru-
ined bv Democratic rule. Their angry
u~tterances only eXclteHhe contempt OF
people who are accustomed TO think fer
themselves. Business men all over the
COUNTRY are perfectly satisfied that the
government will be administered for the
benefit Of the whole people, and with the
sole aim Of promoting every kin Of bust
ness and industry, when the Democrats
get control Of 1t, and they are looking
forward TO the change as the beginning Of
a period OF greater harmony and pros
perity.
Mr.. Hendricks. in his speech in Brook
Iyn, on Thursday night. mapped the
policy and purposes Of the Democratic
party pretty thoroughly. II is safe to as
sumo that at the end OF Gov. Cleveland's
term the Democratic party viii be much
stronger than it is to-day.

gratifying information. At time II

During TIE week preceding and the
week following the Presidential election,
the MORNING News paid out for dis
ratches the sum Of Si46 "a. This, Of
course. does not include what was paid
correspondents for their services. -Four
hundred and fourteen words were received
from Orlando, Fla, for which a charge Of
SIs % was made. Out Of this amount the
Western Union Telegraph Company re-
cefved 81 Sits toll from jacksonville to
savannah. The remainder Of the
charge 1872 4S) was paid as tolls
10 two other telegraph companies
the International Telegraph Company
from jacksonville 10 wildwood, and the
Sanford Telegraph Company from Wild
wood to Orlando. A claim for a reduc-
ton was made. and s. IS allowed, the
two companies last mentioned claiming,
however. that the original amount was
correct and that the rate was a reduced
special rate. such charges are simply
prohioitory. No paper can afford to
gather news by telegraph where such ex-
orbitant tolls are demanded. The dis
lance from Savannah 70 Jacksonville Is
about the same as the distance from
jacksonville to Orlando, yet the Florida
companies charged a little more than
nine times as much as the Western
Union for an equal service.

SpecuIations About RiddIeberger's Flu
ture Course.

Senator Malone had the Virginia Legis-
Iature elect Mr.. Riddleberger to tue SEN
ate in order to give him two votes, says a
Washington special. Mr.. Malone IS not
a gentleman who ever has colleagues. tie
recognizes no equals. As he exercise
his boss-ship TO have MIR. Riddleberger
elected. he regarded himself as the pro-
prietOr<Of his vote. Mr.. Riddleberger has
generally voted with the Republicans, u
after he had attained the dignity OF the
United States Senate he rapidly gre"
weary Of being a mere chattel or the Sc
Nor Senator. He had aspirations after
patronage. He felt himself a peer ana
not a vassal. He desired 10 have
something TO say about the manage
ment OF home politics. His desire TO
shake Oh the Malone yoke fed on evidences
Of MahOne's waning power and grew
apace. After the two parties had noml-
mated their Presidential candidates II was
very evident to Mr.. Riddleberger that It
would no longer pay him TO act IN the
humble but useful capacity OF tan 10 the
Malone kite. The Malone crowd being
in close alliance with President Arthur.
it was evident that Malone would not
have much more chance at the patronage
under Blaine than under Cleveland. he
was doomed in either event, and TIE
Junior Senator would only share his doom
by sticking to him.
On the other hand, if Riddlebe-gcr cut
loose from Malone. mis- chances for the
future were tOlerably bright in either
case. He had not antagOniZed Blaine or
Blaine's friends. He was in a favorable
position To become Blaine's agent in NIr-
ginia if the Republicans carried the couu-
try. On the other hand, he had not made
the Democrats his bitter enemies, as
Malone had. SO that, if Cleveland were
elected, he would have an opportunity 70
gracefully relapse into the Democratic
party, and. as the sole Democratic Sena-
tor from Virginia, dispense the Federal
patronage in that state for the neN- four
years. This explains why Mr.. Riddle
berger has maintained a mastery mac
tivity during the late campaign.
1t is now stated very authOritatiYely
that when Congress meets he viii identity
himself with the Democrats and vote
regularly with them. which course will
assure him four years OF boss-snip in
Virginia. The fact that he abandoned
Mr.. Malone some time ago Will insure
his welcome into the old fold whenever
he wants to return. There is already a
light in the window for Kim. Besides,
the parties viii remain pretty evenly
divided in the Senate, 4 though u won't
give them a majority, the Democratic
Senators will be glad 10 get an additional
vote. Counting the Nirginians as Re-
publicans, the Senate now contains forty
Republicans and thirty-siX Democrats.
TIE Republicans are likely to gain two
seats in the next Senate, and the Demo-
Gratis will be very glad TO gain Riddle
berger from the Republicans.
