Grated with any respect by the GEoRcE
WILLIAM CrRrSEs of the Republican party.
Therefore, bad as Mr. BLAINE is, it is not
that be is worse than GRANT with his cor
rupt whisky rings and surrounded by cab
met officers guilty Of impeachable ofsnses;
worse than the fraudulent HAYES under
whose protection the Star Route thieves
hourished and waxe6 ( It; worse than Credit
Mobiier GARFIELD whose Secretary OF State
and closest adviser he was, that the Repub
leans now oppose his election.
An that is known of Mr. BLArNEs wick
edness now was known in 1880 and in 1876,
vet does any one doubt that had he been
nominated in place Of either HAYES or Gar
FIELD that Schulz, Curtis and the whole
gang whose intolersnt malignancy bounded
poor GREELEY to the grave, and who hound
ed both TILDES and HANCOCK with blood
thirsty vindietiveness, would have support
ell him heartily?
It is simply that times have changed; the
red-hot passions engendered by the war
have cooled; the Republican party is falling
to pieces These people want an excuse
for assisting in its destruction. They are
doing in 1884 what they would have suffer
ed their tongues to have been cut out
rather than they would have done four or
eight years ago.
This is the most hopeful sign of the times.
It shows that mems passions can no longer
be successfully appealed to to blind them to
their own interest; that their prejudices
have soAened as their passions have cooled,
and that reason, judgment, and cool COM
mon sense have at last resumed sway in the
public mind for the first time since the ex-
citing and seething day Of the war.
This revolt is not against Mr.. BLAINE
simply; it is against the further existence Of
the Republican party. Had Mr.. ARTHUR
or any other prominent Republican been
nominated at Chicago, the result would
have been the same. Possibly the same
men would not have rebelled to destroy the
party, but other men equally potential for
mischief would have been found to perform
the service. The days OF the Republican
party were numbered; and the day Of its
death bad arrived Its dissolution could moi
have been postponed
This is the explanation of what We see
going on throughout the country.
The Republican party must go.

IMPROVED MACHINERY.

Improvements in labor saving machinery
give ultimate gain to all, but in many in
stances their introduction involves much
suffering.
The improved processes of manufacturing
steel nails, which make them quite as cheap
as iron nails, have brought or will bring
many families in Wheeling, Pittsburg and
elsewhere to ore trouble. They have live
upon iron nails, so to speak, and the fathers
and brothers from whose wages their bills
for food and clothing and shelter have bee
paid, are no longer needed, now that the
steel nail has come into use, and must GO
elsewhere for employment that is not cas-.
to find in such times as these.
The introduction of machines in the
mines of the Hooking Valley provoked q
strike which has lasted for ten long months,
as well as riot and blOOdShed. 1t is al.
very well to say the miners should not have
struck. To put the machines in was to put
more than half the miners out, and with
prices and production as they are, where
were they to go?
And now we are told that a cotton picker
has been invented which will pick cotton
fer one-seyenth the cost Of human labor.
This means that six out of every sever o.
the colored men who have heretofore made
their livelihood by picking cotton must fnc
some other means of earning bread.
When labor is not superintendent, as i
now is, those driven out Of one calling by
such forces as these are readily absorbed in
another, but with supply and demand as
they are many must inevitably bide long
before relief comes.

MIR. Blaine should withdraw

DSSt" HeF0stt, AseP' NN'S'''"'
Mr.. Blaine owes it to the great party
which has nominated him for the highes
Office, and to the personal friends who's
friendship has been strained in his defense
to withdraw from the contest
No man has ever been elected Presiden
of the United States who has been known
to be dishonest; only one whose dishonest,
was suspected,
The things proved against Mr. Blaine arr
not isolated errors. They illustrate his
character. They are part Of him. The
things revealed are only samples of what
he has been doing all his public life. 1t is
understood by the best men Of both parties
in Washington, who have been associated
with him and know him well, that for ways
that are dark and tricks that are vain" b
is peculiar.
BE ought to withdraw, and if he does MOI
do it voluntarily his party should firmly
compel him.

SENATOR BAYARD ON CLEVELAND.

SENATOR BAYARD ON CLEVELAND.
As the leading candidate against Gov.
CLEVELAND in the national convention and
a statesman of equal honor and popularity
Senator BAYARD'S appearance in the can
vass has been awaited with interest. His
Brooklyn speech was very properly given
up, in the main, to a discussion Of the
public issues involved in the election, but
when he came to speak of the candidates,
he INDUCED in no stiuted or Perfunctory
illusions, but made this reference, as just as
it is generous:
This is the leading influence in the chsrac
ter of Grover Cleveland as discern it-not
love Of money, not to achieve success nor
to arouse noisy admiration, but chiefly to
perform his duty in mat station of life to
which it may please God to call him. be
has done this alike in offices comparatiyel,
humble, as well as in those Of great distinc
ton and power, for he has governed tn,
Empire State and $500, 900 people honor
ably, honestly and well for the past tive
years. As q son and brother he has don
his duty; as a sheriff he has done his duty
as mayor of Buffalo he has done his duty
as Governor Of the State Of New York b.
has done his duty, and, God willing, a
President of the United States he will DO hi
duty.

A Tell. Fale Pulpit.

A clergyman near the dean the
English summer chaplain at Schwai-
bach-had been speaking of his own
extraordinary experiences in the pull
pit of Trinity Church, Margate, when
preaching there as strangr on behalf
of the excellent sea bathing infrmary
in that place There was at the back
of that pulpit, he said, sounding
board, shaped and concaved like a
large oyster or scallop shell. And the
effect of his own voice on that shell
and on his own ears was most pecu-
liar and unpleasant. When he stood
back in his preaching towards the
shell, the boom in his ears was quite
startling, and when he stood forward
his voice seemed diminished almost TO
inaudibilitv.
THAT reminds me, said the dean,
'tof very humbling experience of a
friend of mine who was preaching in
the pulpit with exactly such a sound
ing board as you have described. He
was not the minister of the church,
though he lad preached there two or
three times before. And that pulpit
had such extraordinary acoustical pc
cularities that it caught and reflected
at peculiar angles, back upon the
preacher, even whispers spoken at a
long distance. My friend went up in
to the pslpit, and knelt down 10 say
his private prayers. He then stood up
and looked at the congregation, and
as he did so he heard voice, as it
were from behind, say distinctly,
oh, that dreadful man againn And,
remarked my friend, dryly, it was not
encouraging"
