Fighter From the West Who
Stands Sir Feet Eight Inches
/ High.
] There is a giant coming East
who promises to astonish the peo-
pie and paralyze the pugilists.
John Z. Sullivan discovered him in
the far West, and is going to send
out Mr. Pat Sheedy to bring him
on and make a man Of him. The
giants name is Dan Murphy, and
ne lives in Portland, Oregon, or
very near there. He has never
learned to fight scientifically, but
he promises to make a great man.
This is the description which Mr..
Sullivan gives of him:
hes SIX feet eight inches high
and built in proportion. He weighs
29l pounds without any fat on him,
and he's as active as the best Of
them. He's got a fighters head,
good shoulders, and thick neck,
and if he's rightly handled he'll
make a soo-pound daisy, and no
mistake" rs
1t is generally believed that Mr..
Sullivan's intention is not to rear
up an antagonist worthy of him 80
much asito produce some one to take
his place, and upon whom to let
fall his mantle. The Bostonian Sc
rioasly contemplates retiring, espec-
tally since justice has been leading
him such dance. and he dosn't
want to make his bow to the Amer
lean people, which has done 50 much
for him, without doing, something in
return.-[N. 7. Sun.
How BLAINE WAS DEFEA1i.o.
Mr.. J. S. Clarkson, the member
of the Republican National Com
mittee from Iowa, explains the
cause Of the defeat of the Plumed
Knight. He says that while the .
old man Burchard was an intense
supporter Of Blaine, he had three
sons who had strayed off
SO far from the faith Of their father
as to become very ardent friends Of
Cleveland. Now Mr.. Clarkyon
says that the boys put up a job Oh
the old man. They insisted that
their father being the oldest man
in the church delegation, should be
honored with the delivery of the
laudatory resolutions. This being
those three bad boys
went to work to fix up the old
= T. ~
mans speech for him, and managed
% dovetail the three AR's' into the
speech in such manner as to make
he old preacher believe that thew
we're tremendously effective and :
most sublime climax. Clarkson
kinks that those bad boys BY their
initial conduct knocked Blaine's
at into the fire, and that they, and
lot the Republican National Com.

IN UNSOCND PROPOSITION.

The circular of the Independent Republican
Conference Committee Is, on the whole, a
sensible document. But it contains one prOpO-
sition that cannot be successfully maintained
That proposition is that " the Republican party
"cannot afford to burden itself with defensive
campaign" 1t can afford to do just that
Have the gentlemen who prepared the circular
so soon forgotten the Garfield fight of 1880
That was defensive fight, if there ever was
one, from beginning to end. Envy, hatred;
malice and all uncharitableness opened their
batteries upon the General just as soon as he
was nominated. They never ceased firing until
election night. Nevertheless he was trium-
phantly elected.
The truth is that party can always afford to
make a defensive fight, when, as in Garfeld's
case, 1t has sure defence" for its candidate.
To argue otherwise is to cast serious reflection
upon the intelligence and sense of justice of the
American people. For 1t implies that they
either cannot or will not discriminate between
charges made and charges proven; that they
regard accusation and conviction as convertible
terms that they stand ready to accept as true
the counts Of an Indictment without stopping to
listen TO the evidence. Once let such cruel and
unjust theory of the attitude of voters toward
an assailed public man gain fOothold among us
and the golden age of the libeller, the assassin
of character, will have arrived. In world In
which there is reason to suspect that snless per-
lection does not exist outside of The Erening
Posts Office, it is comparatively easy to frame
an attack upon any conspicuous figure. 1t has
come TO be an axiom that detraction and enmity
are the necessary attendants upon greatness.
To rise above the crowd is to open the way
that leads to malignant opposition.
The Republican party was born of the instinct
of fair play. 1t doesn't scare easily. Hence it
can be counted upon never to set aside Repub-
leans whose careers have been characterized by
patriotic devotion to its own and the country's
welfare simply because they are threatened
with the experience of Garfeld-the experience
of a defensive campaign. Nor will it do to re-
ply that when the circular Of the Independents
spoke of defensive campaign, reference was
had to an indefensible defensive campaign.
There are $50 delegates elected to the Republi-
can National Convention. 1t will take AL
votes to nominate. 1t is idle and worse than
idle TO assume that such a large mum DER of UNI
mpeached men will concur in placing a candi
date in the field who would make necessary an
indefensible defensive campaign. The nomina-
ton of Mr.. Blaine has, been persistently urged
by great numbers of Republican constituencies
because they regard him as the strongest, the
NEST available, the most justly popular man
that the party can present for the Presidency
this year. But The Post and its allies cease not
day nor night to protest that his would be de-
fcnsive campaign. swell, it would be, precisely
in the sense that Gartield's was. Ths Ra""hli-

CHARIE2 O,CONOR.


The reputation of Charles O'Conor is not to be
explained by the brilliant achievements of his
distinguished public life. To be styled the lead
er of the bar of State which has justly pr1ded
itself. for many generations, upon the personal
character and professional eminence OF Its
great lawyers, is indeed rare honor; but the
fame of a great lawyer does not often reach
beyond the range of men who are
more or less occupied with public affairs,
and Mr.. O'COnors celebrity was as wide as
the continent Even his special attainments in
the law were not those which most easily i'm
press laymen He was a powerful advocate,
but not an orator like ChOate or Evarts; he was
profound iurist but he never held sta
ton, like Marshall or Story, which placed the
stamp of official recognition upon his learning.
In some departments of constitutional Inter
probation, in fact, he was habituaily and oDvl-
ously wrong; and everybody knew that his
eruditon betrayed him, as so many studentsare
BETRAYED by study, into theories which would
not stand the test of practical life, and
views of our fundamental law from which the
Nation manifests every year more and more
positive dissent. Whenever he took an active
mart in politics he found himself in radical op-
and although the Democratic party was fond
of referring to him as one of its most shining
members there was not voter in Tammany
Hall who would have trusted him in practical
politics." nor a convention which would have
taken his advice in making a platform. And
vet, as we have said, the celebrity of Charles
O'COnor reaches everywhere. There is not
hamlet in the United States in which he is not
known as the great lawyer; in which his name
is not held in respect and Lis loss will not be
sincerely regretted.
The lesson of this exceptional honor is the
value of personal character. 1t Is safe to as
sumo that the repute of Mr.. O'COnor for integ-
lity and high mindedness has carried his fame
into quarters where merely professional emf
nence would hardly have made him known.
To large class of New Workers. for example,
Mr.. Abraham Hummel would naturally be
more eminent figure among lawyers than
Mr.. Charles O'COnOr; bat character is more i'm
pressive than exploits, and the world, which
often does not know the masters of the profess
sions, has somehow faculty Tor finding out the
men whose virtue is of stout fibre. 1t very
soon learned to respect Charles OConor as an
advocate with whom conscience and self-re
spect were stronger than ambition. lie carried
into the courtroom, as well as into all the cir
cles of private life, uprightness, simplicity, sin
cerity and independence. These manly virtues
not only adorned his career but enhanced and
extended his professional celebrity.
In this personal fame he has left to his
friends and his brethren Of the bar legacy
more precious than money; and he has left to
the American people the encouraging example
of life which preserved through reckless
and rapacious age the stIictest rule of honor

A BILL THAT SHOULD BE VETOED.

The Office of Commissioner of Accounts is one
that may be made of great value to the city in
checking waste and exposing corruption. But
under the present system the usefulness of the
commissioners is almost nullified by their de-
pendence upon political influences, and upon
the will of the Mayor, who can remove them
without hearing. The Bureau has not been
managed in such way as 20 win public con-
fidence or prove n terror to evil-doers, nor will
it be of much service until every one in It,,
commissioner and clerk alike, is Independent
of department ties and partisan connections
Men have been employed In this Bureau who
have proved incompetent to detect or prevent
fraud In the departments, and Others have
been given places whose connections were such
that they were much more likely to cover
abuses than to expose them.
The bill which has passed both houses of the
Legislature and is now before the Governor In
relation to this Bureau is not step in the
direction of wise reform, and only oversight or
misapprehension could have given it the sup
port of the Republican majOrities in Senate
and Assembly. 1t raises the salaries OF the
