"My beloved daughter" he said, as
he stroked her golden curls with one
hand a. scratched his shin with the
other, next week is your marriage. "
"Yes, papa, and wanted to ask how
much money l am to expectfro you. "
HIN, well, in case wheat goes up
five cents per bushel 1 shall probably
make the check for ten thousand dol
lars, but in case wheat takes drop OF
ten cents you must not expect such
liberality."
''Oh, no, no, of course not, but l was
just thinking that perhaps you'd like
to give me twenty-five dollars cash in
hand and settle the whole matter now.
While l do not doubt your integrity of
character, it takes money to go on a

NEED NOT DESPAIR,

Mr.. Blaine Not Dead as Presidential
Can iidste, Although He Nor Any Other
Republican Is Likely to Be Elected.
The Tribune takes to task certain
Democratic papers which, it says, have
pronounced MIR. Blaine dead" as a
Presidential candidate. Our contem-
porary thinks it ''too early to order the
coffin and fortifies its position by this
Renaissance:
| Andrew Jackson was born in 1867. He was
nominated as the ideal of the Democratic
| party and was defeated for the Presidency in
| 1874 He was then fifty-seven years old. Four
| years later he was elected; four years after
that he was elected again. From the time his
| second term of office expired to the day of his
death, though private citizen, holding no
| office and seeking none, he was the most pow
erful man in American politics.
1t is scarcely admissible to liken
James q. Blaine to Andrew Jackson.
But it must be remembered that in 1924,
although beaten in the House of Repre-
sentatiyes through the failure of a ma
jOrity in the Electoral College, Andrew
jackson in the quadrangular contest
received plurality of the popular vote,
of the Electoral vote and of the States
But why confine Blaine's consolation
to the case of Andrew jackson? Will
lam H. Harrison, of Ohio. was defeated
in 1886 by an electoral vote of 10 to 73
much more than two to one-and was
elected in 1910 by log cabins, hard cider
and 234 electoral votes against Co
very nearly four to one. Harrison was
born in l7f3; hence he was sixty-three
years OF age when defeated and sixty
seven when elected.
Certainly the Tribune need not de-
spaIr of Blaine in 1888. To be sure it
was found impossible to resuscitate
Henry Clay after his defeat in 1874, al
though very determined effort was
made to that end by his devoted follow
ers. But Clay was not so representa-
tive man as Blaine-of his party. He
was conservative, honest, unstained
Blaine is an admirable and faithful rep
resentative of Republicanism. He is
reckless, INSCRIPTIONS and not very
nice about the condition of his record.
The Tribune is right in denying that
Mr.. Blaine is dead. He is alive-and
kicking. There is nothing to prevent
Mr.. Blaine from obtaining the Repub-
hcan nomination in 1888, after his brill
liant canvass and narrow defeat this
year. Whether he can ever be elected
President depends on one man-Grover
Cleveland. If Mr.. Cleveland's Admin
istration is a success, as it promises to
be, and if he is faithful to his pledges to
the people. while Blaine will be fitting
candidate in 1888, there is no likelihood
that he or any other Republican will be

HORSE CAVE, AZ, December 16.
P. J. Slocum, a school teacher, recently
incurred the ill-will of some Of the COM
munity, and received several anonymous
letters suggesting that if he didn't
leave town, he would be waited OF. He
did not leave as requested, an1 on
Saturday night a mob called on him
and found him at home. He claimed
that over twenty horsemen rode into
his yard and gave orders TO sur
round the house, when he fired into
the crowd and kept firing until he
drove the mob off his premises. When he
ceased firing, Wayne Grain, one of the
ALLEGED vigilantcs, was shot through the
heart aud fell dead inside the school
masters yard. John Long, another of
the crew, was wounded ia the leg. Sew
eral horses were shot, and it is thought
that two or three other members of the
party were wounded. Long, who was shot
in the leg, claims that the party of horse
men did not constitute a mob, but were
riding peaceably along the road when
fired upon. Grain, who was killed, and
Long, who was wounded, both live four
or five miles from the village of Horse
Cave, and the mystery is, if it was mob,
why they were in it. Slocum was un-
acquainted with either, and neither knew
him. There were four or five men in the
house with SlocGm, but he SAYS no one
fred but himself.

Gigantic Schemes, Involving the Expendi-

CHICAGO, ILL, December l6.
Captain Bedford Pym, Paymaster of the
royal navy, and lately member of Parlia
ment from Gravesend, is in the city, having
returned from looking over the cattle
ranches of the West. He has on foot a
plan for building Il railroad from Chey-
enne, w. T., to Hudson's Bay for the
transportation of cattle to England, in
stead of bringing them to Chicago and
thence shipping them East. This road
will cost about SO, 200, 600, and ne wants
the United States to subscribe l l-2 per
cent. of that amount and England like
sum. The remainder, he claims, can be
raised in the London Stock Exchange in
few days.
Captain Pym has also been in CORE
spOndence with Washington authorities
concerning the Nicaragua Canal. The
United States has recently secured con-
tract for this canal from Nicaragua, and
the estimated cost is $4,000. 900. Cap
tain Pym says 500, 100000 won't do it.
He wants the United States and Great
Britain each to subscribe l-2 per cent.
OF 5000, geo, 900, and says ne can raise the
remainder in London.
He says of the Hudson Bay Road, that
for Texas cattle it will save 1000 miles
by land and 500 by water He goes to
Toronto to consult Sir John Macdonald,
and will also call on PresiGlent-elect
Cleveland to suggest the appointment of
a preliminary commission to consider the
terms for joint action between England
and the United States on the Nicaraguan
Canal project.

UNOUENCHABLE BLAINE.
The Surprising Result of the Late Political
Contest, According to the Defeated Can
didate.

The Surprising Result of the Late Political
Contest, According to the Defeated Can.
didate.
Really Mr.. Blaine's account of his
own defeat leaves it quite uncertain that
he is not yet victorious. The Irish Dem
ocrats, thousands of them, voted fol-
him, the Germans didn't desert him,
and the Independents had no following
worth mentioning. According to his
analysis of the vote he seemed to have
gained everywhere, and yet, curiously
enough, TO very little purpose. This is
a surprising result of political contest.
He appears to lay the most direct blame
on Providence and DR.. Burchard-the
former under the yuise of 1.-The weather
and the latter as IAN intolerant and
highly improper minister with a weak
ness for ALTERATION. The interview,
which was evidently furnished for the
purpose of general publication and
letting Mr.. Blaine down gently
after his political miscarriage, was
not cOntrived i'll good taste. Blaine,
as usual, appears as his own
eulogist and defender. He says in effect
to the country, only for sundry acct
dents, and ''if" so and so had not lap
pened Blaine would have been elected
All this kind of speculation may be true
enough, but it is not to the point; it
leaves unsaid the only thing that he
should have said, viz: A manly,
straightforward admission that he was
beaten in a square fight, and magnan-
imous recognition of the public worth
of his opponent and a patriotic express
sion of his respect and support for the
peoples choice. No, Blaine will never,
we fear, be anything but brilliant
partisan, and his defeat will in no wise
remand him to private life. Ii he can
not have official position he will ut
least live publicly and manage to at
tract notice. Almost simultaneously
with this interview explaining his de
feat, comes the intelligence that Blaine
is not content with the quietness of his
home in Maine. He is said to be look
ing for a suitable mansion in Wash
ington, where he will live during
the winter, engaged in the agree
able task of finishing his history
and keeping the author on the sur
face of events. This is following
Beaconsfield's advice in reference to a
political defeat, 'act rs if it had not
happened. Blaine is determined not
to be shelved, and, as he has strength,
energy and ability, there might yet be
future of great prominence before him,
were it not for the unfortunate records
he has left of his Congressional career
These can not be effaced or destroyed.
They beat him before the people this
time, and they will be apt to do it again,
should he test their power. He had
better confine himself to literature, leave
politics alone, and live serenely on the
capital, political and financial, that he
has snugly slowed away. He might
add an additional volume to his history,
embracing the changes and chances
that led to his defeat, with special refer
ence to the danger of such enemies as
Conkling and of such friends as DIR.
Burchard, and, above all, of the folly OF
writing too many letters.-St. Louis

BLAINE'S MAlIGNANCY.

Impossible to Resist the Conclusion That
BIaines Utterances Are Intended to Stir
Up Strife at the South.
If Blaine's malignity were mere sore
headedness it might be overlooked. But
when his intiammatory utterances are
taken into consideration with those OF
Fred Douglass and such blatant organs
as the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette, it
is impossible to resist the conclusion
that they spring from deliberate pur-
pose to stir up strife at the South. 1t is
hoped very evidently that the negroes
can be moved to such a display of ami
mostly against the whites as to arouse
the latter to retaliation. Then will
Blaine and his followers come to the
front with prompt 1--WE told you so"
and combined effort to fasten raspon-
sibility for the result upon the election
of Cleveland.
The design is so patent. however,
that the ultimate purpose of the schemers
is sure to be defeated. If a race con-
fiict does come in the South the people
both North and South will understand
very well who has done the Infamous
work of fomenting strife and infaming
passions. Mr.. Blaine is magnetic
man and plausible. But he has neither
magnetism nor plausibility to deceive
the people rs to his responsibility for
war of races should such war unhap-
PLY come. A solemn and heavy respon-
sibility it viii be, too, one from which
hsa chr WI 10
thing of the feeling of a people express
ing their condemnation of corruption in
Office and their hatred of lying. But he
will find the breeze which blew him
one side on the 4th of November but a
summer zephyr in comparison with the
whirlwind of wrath and Indignation
which will visit him and his Cocoon
spirators if their present wicked scheme
proves successful.
Meanwhile it is the duty of all
thoughtful. sensible men, North as well
as South. TO see that the scheme does
not succeed. The influence which these
inflammatory appeals of Blaine and
Douglass and other wicked demagogues
are having and likely to have upon the
colored people of the South must be
counteracted by showing them the true
character of such appeals and the alb
sence of any ground for fear that the
change in the National Administration
means anything but good TO their race.
With the intelligent colored men this
viii not be difficult. Indeed, they are al
ready telling each other that the cleo
ton of Cleveland will be a benefit to
them With the unintelligent. already
filed with distrust and yindicsiveness
through the lying arts of partisans and
It viii be more difficult,
but with discretion and patience it viii
be accomplished even in their case.-I

may declare that President Davis
and the remnant of his Cabinet
will be moved to Washington on
wheels, but their absurdities frighter
none but themselves. There is new
South, whose people long ago accepted
the result of the war. and who have
been showing by their industry, their
enterprise and their loyalty to the
Union that they are far more patriotic
than those Republicans who, in time of
peace, have striven for the sake of place
and favor to array States against States
and to feed the smoldering fires of a
dangerous sectionalism.
But the Republican party, which had
long ago outlived its proper age and
mission, is sinking into the peeVish i'm
becility of the ''slippered pantaloon.
1t dies hard, and on its death-bed gasps
out its selfish, misery hate of the party
whose honesty and liberal spirit it has
so deeply feared. Let it die and have
