Written After His Defeat and Just
Before His Mind Broke Down.
[From The New York Tribune, Nov. z, 1871
There has been no time until now, within
the last twelve years, when The Tribune was
not supposed to keep for the benefit Of the
idle and incapable q sort Of federal employ
ment agency, established to get places under
the government for those who were indis-
posed to work for their living. Any mar
who had ever voted tho Republican ticket
believed 1t was the duty and the privilege
OF the editor Of this paper TO get him
a place in the custom house, Every red
nosed politician who had cheated at the eau
Gus and fought at the polls looked to the edi-
tor of The Tribune to secure his appoint
ment as gnuger or as army chaplain or as
minister to France. Every campaign orator
came upon us after the battle was over for a
recommendation as secretary Of the treasury
or the loan OF half a dollar.
II one Of our party had an interest pend
ing In Washington, the editor Of The Trib-
une was photographed In frantic haste to come
to the capital, save this bin, crush hat one,
promote one object or stop another. He was
to DO e~verybody's friend, with nothing to do
but to take care Of other folks business,
sign papers, write letters and ask favors for
them, and get nc thanks for either. Four

out what they wanted, only TO become
straightway abusive enemies. It was the
worry Of life TO try to crafty one demand
In a dozen for the other fifth. The man with
two wooden legs congratulated himself that
he could never be troubled with cold feet.
1t is a source of proud satisfaction to us
that ofiice-seekers will keep aloof from a de-
feated candidate who has not influence
enough at Washington or Albany to get a
sweeper appointed under the s~ergeant-at-
arms, or a deputy sub-assistant clerk into
tho paste-pot section Of the folding-room.
At last We shall be let alone to mind our own
affairs and manage our own newspaper,
without being called aside every half-hour
to help lazy people whom we don't know,
and to spend our strength 10 benefit people
who don't deserve assistance At last we
shall keep our office clear of blathersldtes
and political bsggars and go about our
daily work with the satisfaction of knowing
that not the most credulous OF place hunters
win suspect US of having any credit with
tho appointing powers. That Is one of the
results of Tuesdays election for which we
are ourselves profoundly grateful

The flowers are dead that made a Summer
splendor
By wayzide hooks and on the sunny hill.
And with regrets these hearts Of ours grow

As sometimes all hearts win.
We loved the blossoms, for they helped to

As hopes and dreams forever help to
The heavy loads we bear.
How like the flowers. whose transient life is

The hopes and dreams are. that for one

About loves latticed bower.
One little hour of almost perfect pleasure,
A foretaste Of the happiness to come,
Then sudden frost-the garden yields It's

The abandonment of the wheat-growing
industry in England would be one Of the most
momentous events Of modern times, yet we
seem to be within measurable distance of
such IN event. Briefly, it may be said that
the English farmers have for some time per-
ceived the desperate character Of wheat
growing, but that now they are perceiving
more-they are beginning to sec their way
out of w~heat-growing. In Ireland wheat
growing has gone down 20 per cent. In a
single year, and miIlsrs must face the
chance Of a similar decline In Great Britain.
For millers the outlook is q serious one.
So large a portion Of American wheat Is
now sent Us In the form Of -four, that an ex-
tensive dependence on the United States is q
matter which English millers are gravely
concerned to prevent From India we stil
receive wheat In an manufactured form,
but tho large receipts OF Australian iour COM
ing by the Suez canal have given US warn
ing that the shipments Of flour by vessel
which must pass through the tropics is by no
means impossible. II Australian fiour can

other country may reach us in the same con-

a number of interesting stories OF their

CHRISTMAS CHAT.

On this beautiful day of joy and glad
ness THE LEADER, always among the
earliest of callers, drops in upon its pat
rons with a hearty and heartfelt Merry
Christmas to each and everyone ofthem.
Ever since the day when Cheyenne sprung
as II by magic from the bleak and unpeo-
pied prairie, takingIits station: at once in
the van of enterprising and prosperous
communities, The LEADER has never
failed in paying the visit which it delights
in paying this morning. To the days
which have passed it has not been free
from the mutations inherent in all things
earthly. Men who had a hand in its in
ception have passed away, and men who
helped it on to a career of prosperity have
passed to other spheres OF action, leaving
none of the management that were at the
helm one year ago. But still it remains
The LEADER, and comes to-day to its
readers full Of the hope that the days
which divide them from their next Merry
Christmas may each record its full meas
ure of health, happiness and prosperity.
