SOLICJTUDE IN BOSTON.

There is something almost pathetic in the
resolution of the Boston Independents to look
for help from the Democratic party. They
were uncasily half conscious, these dissatisfied
gentlemen, that they had placed themselves in
an absurd predicament; and when they
solemnly Resolved, that we look with solicit
:" tude to the coming nominations by the Demo
"cratc party" they had the air of besceching
that company of ragamullins, fresh from
training at the heels of Governor Butler, to
come and pull them ont of the hole, for nobody
else would do so. 1t was with sad remem-
brancc of the recent Democratic candidate who
did not receive the degree of LII. ID. from Har-
ward College that President Eliot remarked, " |
"must confess it will only be by dispensation
"of Providence that the Democratic party will
[" give us the candidate we want; and there was
a similar touch of mOurnfuness III the con-
fession with which Mr.. George William Curtis
coupled his recent abjuration i'll Uarper'S
JVeeky, that to be sure the Democratic party
was chiefly distinguished for its general
cusscdncss." The boilers evidently feel that
they will havelto join hands with the Democracy
on the Democratic conditions; that having
failed to dictate to their own convention they
have not the ghost of o chance of debating to
the opposition; and that nevertheless the
Democratic party is their inevitable destina-
ton. They are not happy; and it is no Won
der they await the coming nomination =" with
solicitude."
II was in the spirit of solicitude that Colonel
T. w. Higginson tried to persuade himself, in
long speech, that he did not think the Demo
cratic party after all was so dreadful as he knew
it was. One cannot speak with contempt, he
said, "of party which still retains in its ranks
men like Cleveland and Bayard." That is right,
Colonel step up and take your dose like man.
But let us test your argument little. Can one
speak with contempt of a party which still re-
tains in its ranks men like Edmunds and-well,
shallwe say HigginsonR Alas while You are
speaking the Democracy are declaring that
Bayard will not do, and Cleveland is disgusting

CONTRACTORS AND TIE PUBLIC.


1t seems desirable occasionally to inquire,
though with due dinidencc, whether the public
of New York have any rights which contractors
are bound to respect. Last week house fell
down in Grand-st. 1t is true that it was old and
il-built. but the immediate cause of its collapse
was the removal of other houses from beside it,
and the alleged neglect of the contractor in
charge of this work to shore itup when its peril
ous condition became manifest. A few days
before that a citizens house was literally rid
died by stones from a neighboring blast, and
his furniture and belongings generally were
seriously injured. Almost as recently woman
standing at her own back-dOor was struck down
and had one of her legs broken by a rock hurled
from another blast. These are specimens of
some of the more heinOus offences of contrac-
tors. AS for the minor ones, their name is
legion. Contractors never think anything of
blocking thoroughfareS for weeks with enorm
Gus heaps of building material of stopping
cutters and sewers so that the rain is damned
up and floods the easements in the vicinity; of
picking holes in the pavements and leaving
the sidewalks torn up for months at a time; OF
pulling down condemned buildings rect-
lessly that the nelghbors are half smothcrcd
with dust during the whole of tho opeIG,E2j OF

CLETELAND'S SCPPORT AT SARATOGA.
Who is behind Cleveland i'll his canvass for
the Presidency The Manning machine, than
which there is no more INSCRIPTIONS political
close corporation in the country.
In order to demonstrate the nature OF this
machine it is only necessary to call attention
to one circumstance. \ correspondent OF The
Erening Post writing from Saratoga says
" it is confidently believed by the Cleveland
managers that the Committee Ton Contested
Seatsl will have majority of Cleveland mem
bers. In that case, the Cleveland contestants
will be seated quite regardless Of the tdctS."
This damaging piece Of testimony, be it OBJ
served, appears not in a Republican news
paper but in one of Mr.. Cleveland's
most Jealous organs. If the Manning machine
has the power, it purposes to carry the Conven-
ton for Cleveland without regard to such con-
siderations as justice and fair play
WhatdO independents " think of this initia-
tive OF the campaign of Cleveland the reformer

contemptfor the comfort, convenience anu
even safety of the public.
Z Unless they are compelled to do so they VIII
seldom take any precautions. They seem TO
think that the public are nuisances VINO eAiSV

and train him for the Presidency Is one that
am not afraid to trust" II Is pleasant some
times to have q short memory. For 1t was while
Samuel ]. Tilden was the official trainer" OF
the party in the State of New York that 1T pro-
duccd and developed Tweed and Sweeny, and
perpetrated the most daring of its frauds upon
the franchise. When Mr.. Tlden turned re-
former, and with the help of The TRIBUNE ana
other Republicans broke up the Canal Ring, the
Democratic factions began furious war upon
him, which has been the controlling influence
in State politics ever since. And when Mr..
Tilden at last ran for the Presidency and was
beaten,1 Colonel HigginsonL has conveniently
forgotten that a conspiracy was Matched be-
tween his back parlor and the National Commit
tee rooms to buy the electoral votes of three
States with packages of "Copenhagen." The
same party which produced Mr. Tilden and
trained him for the Presidency produced Smith
Weed and trained him for a political COM
mission merchant. produced Kelly and Ikomp-
son and trained them for bosses, produced But
Ter and trained him for the greatest show on
earth.
We doubt whether the Democrats at Chicago
will trouble themselves about the fancies of the
Boston gentlemen, but it ought to be easy for
the solicitous and the Indifferent to come
together. The Democracy i'll the course OF Its
diversified career has tried almost every variety
of candidate and made every variety OF
promise and has never shown the least re-
gard for either after the election. The gentle
men from Boston, if we may judge from the
tone of their speeches. are in such particu-
larly unpleasant plight that they will accept,
they must accept, anything the Democrats sec
fit to do. Where one side docs not care what 1t
gives and the other cannot afford to care what 1t
takes, there ought to be tolerably prompt
agreement.
