The independents.

The New York Commercial advertiser
is pouring red-hot shot into the Phari-
sees and at such lively rate that sew
eral of them are beginning to Vince.
Here is picture of them drawn to the
life:
The. so-called Independents are a
highly respectable set of people; they
dress well, are morally HTeprOschable,
and a few of them even are men of
genius. But they are wholly impracti
cable as politicians or statesmen.
There is sort of hysterical sentimen-
talism in many of their number which
renders them, when they get notion
in their brains, utterly. unmanageable
either by themselves or by others. They
will have their own way, regardless of
the relations of circumstances, or else
they will break things. The notion
they commonly adopt is one not of pol
lticS, but of an extreme or Superfine
morality, and because the world does
not accept it, or see it as they do, they
go into "tantrums" and make specta-
Gle which cooler heads cannot admire.
We say this, not because we would
depreciate the uses of morality in pol
itics; we would have great deal more
of it if we could; but because we know
that when men come together to act in
parties-a thousand win try to accom-
plish some common ends-it is not pos
sible to reach ideal results. We must
take the best that we can get, and not
the best that we conceive, as Solon
said of his laws; and to insist on ideal
results, when the facts do not admit of
them, is to become impracticable, a
purist and dude, whose place is not
with parties at all, but in his solitary
chamber and communion with his own
soul. In that sphere he is often of ad-
mirable use, but out of it as often an
Obstructionist and Pharisee.

THE IRISH WORLD.
If the Democracy Fails to Take Up
Butler Ii Will Support Blaine.

The Irish World on Friday thus de-
clared its position: Butler or Blaine.
AS the time for holding the Democrat
ic National Convention approaches the
popular feeling in favor of General
Buffers nomination grows stronger.
1t would be a grave mistake on the part
of the Democratic managers to suppose
that in the event of General Buffers
failure to get the nomination they could
keep voters loyal to the Democratic
party. If, ignoring the wishes of the
rank and file of the Democracy, the
political wire-pullers should nominate
such candidates as Cleveland or Bayard
there will be such stampede from the
Democratic ranks as will astoniSh these
wire-pullers. We warn them in time
that there is a spirit abroad that can
not be safely trified with. The popu-
lar feeling toward General Butler is
one that is rooted in the belief that he
more than any other public man is a
Champion of a policy that is truly
American. Next to him in the advO-
cacy of such policy comes Mr.. Blaine,
who in case General Butler does not
get the nomination Will undoubtedly
receive the great bulk OF the votes that
will go to the Democratic party If it
places General Buffers name at the
head of its ticket. If the Democratic
managers so manipulate things at Chi
cago that General Butler does not re-
ceive the nomination the Irish World
will advocate the election of Mr.. Blaine
and use whatever influence it may pos
sess to place him in the White House.
We believe the time has come when a
more vigorous American policy ought
to be substituted for the sycophantic
spirit toward England that has so long
ruled the councils of the nation. For
this reason we shall work for the cleo
tion of Mr.. Blaine if the Democracy
refuses to select as its standard-bearer
General Butler, the only man who can
save it from defeat. 1t is for the Dem
ocratic National Convention to decide
whether General Butler or Mr.. Blaine
shall succeed President Arthur. Let it
present some other candidate than Gen
eral Butler to the voters, but if it does
we tell the Democratic convention that
its nomination will be a signal for
bolt that will shatter the Democratic
party to pieces.

The Trusted Party.

Although the old Whig party elected
its Presidential candidates in 1910 and
1S4S, the Democratic party may be said
have held power from March q, 1927, to
March 4. 1861. period Of thirty-four
years. The record of those years, taken
all in all, is not creditable to the Amer
lean people. The spoils system, intro+
dueed by Andrew Jackson, was perpet
uated, and made vehicle to Democratic
success. The corruption growing out of
such a system invaded all the depart
ments of government, and dishonesty
became the rule rather. than the excep-
tion. The public funds were plundered
right and left. every Democratic office
holder, from Cabinet officer down to a
custom tide waiter, considering himself
entitled to a "whack" commensurate
with his position. When at last this
party added treason to its other crimes
and plunged the country into civil war
the treasury was bare and government
loans went begging at ten and twelve
per cent. discount on the dollar. STEPPED
in corruption and polluted with crimes
of the blackest dye, this party was ignO-
miniously thrust from power by the
the election of Abraham Lincoln. Since
that period the trust of the nation has
been in the Republican party. The con-
trast between the two governmental
periods is as great as that between the
dark ages and the nineteenth century
This great national trust in the Republi-
can party has been molly earned and is
we'll deserved Republican patriotism
provei greater than Democratic treason,
and was thus enabled TO save freedom's
heritage to coming posterity. In all its
measures the Republican party has iden-
titled itself with the cause of the people,
and its policy has been to protect labor,
encourage home industry, and build up
a domestic market for the benefit OF
American agricultuIists. By its wise
craftsmanship, its honesty in financial
administration, and its publication of
the civil service, the Republican party
has been enabled to hold power for the
past twenty-three years. 1t is still the
trusted organization of the country and
will continue to be until its great mission
has been accomplished in future years.
Under its administration honesty has
become the rule instead of the exception
The national credit now stands higher
than at any other period in our national
history. The country has grown great
and prosperous, and the American pee
pie will not forget that James G. Blaine
has been leading spirit in the party
through which SO much good has been
accomplished d.-Cleveland Leader.

Massachusetts For Blaine.

Outside of Boston, with the single
exception of the Springfield Republican,
the entire republican press Of Massa-
chusetts are for Blaine. The Lynn
Transcript, though a Butler paper,
speaks warmly in favor of Blaine as
republican who represents ideas and
progressive policy. The West Roxbury
Ne,rs, Roxbury Advocate, Farmingham
Tribune, Walpole Star, Cambridge
Press, Danvers Mirror, and Attleboro
Advocate, in addition to the Massachu-
sets journals quoted elsewheps, are all
for Blaine, and all serve notice upon
upon the city of Boston that "the Ad-
.srtiser and Herald are not Massachu-
setts." The Boston Journal says:
After much inquiry, and after max
ing all possible allowance for the indie
pendent OF free-trade movement, we
have come to the conclusion that Mas
sachusetts will give its electoral vote to
the republican candidate. In Boston
and elsewhere a few thousand voters
who claim or have claimed to be repub-
Hcans and probably did vote for Gener-
al Garfield, will either vote the demo
cratic ticket or vote in the air. On the
OOlCl ud1lu NO AhNO buO@ LAOoD pOololFO
assurance of reliable and well-inform-
ed republicans that the Blaine ticket
will gain, heavily from the republicans
and others who voted for General But
ler in 1888. These gains will be made
in Lynn, Lowell, and other manufac-
turing towns, where the workingmen
regard Mr.. Blaine with something of
the favor which is manifested for him
in the West. We are also assured that
many republicans in this vicinity who
declared week ago that they would
not vote the republican ticket have
either changed their minds or have so
far modified their opinion as to decide
to wait for season. The list of repub-
Gcan names collected by the indepen-
dent managers now appears to be alto
gether inadeqate to the efforts put
forth. Invitations to unite in the
movement were sent out in large num-
bers to voters in every part of the State,
and eager personal canvasses were
made in several localities. The result
is that not over a thousand names of
men who have voted the republican
ticket regularly have been collected,
and the greater part of these are free
traders, who oughtto go with any party
that maintains that theory. In conclu
sion, we repeat that Massachusetts
should be placed in the column of re-
publican States.
If thus early in the campaign the al
legged bolt foots up only 1000 votes,
election day will not be very wet day
in Massachusetts,.

POETRY.
TOO LATE.

What sirences we keep year after year,
With those who are most near to us and
dear;
We live beside each other day by day,
And speak of myriad things, but seldom
say
The full. sweet word that lies just in our
reach,
Beneath the commonplace of common
speech.
Then out of sight and out of reach they
These close familiar friends, who loved
us so;
And, sitting in the shadow they have left,
Alone, with loneliness, and sore bereft,
We think with vain regret of some fond
word,
That once we might have said and they
have heard.
For weak and poor the love that we ex+
pressed
Now seems beside the vast, sweet unex-
pressed,
And slight the deeds we did, to those un-
done,
And small the service spent to treasure
won,
And undeserved the praise, for word and
deed
That should have overflowed the simple
need.
This Is the cruel cross of life, to be
Full visicned only when the ministry
OF death has been fulfilled, and in the
place
OF some dear presence is but empty space.
What recollected services can then
Give consolation for the might have been,
Nora Perry, in n. Y. Independent.

Reasons Why Blaine Should be
Elected.

Mr.. Blaine starts, then, with an un-
precedented proportion of the business
men in his favor, and yet with not a lit
tie opposition. We count with conf
dence upon decisive change, and sug-
gest for the deliberate consideration of
business men a few reasons:
l. 1t will be seen that, in all his long
and active career, Mr.. Blaine has never
advocated a dangerous measure.
2. 1t will be seen that the policy
which has given us the nation of 1884
instead of the nation of 1860 has been
largely due to him.
8. 1t will be seen that he has fought
the wrong and helped the right side in
every struggle for public faith, honest
money, sound banks, and protective
tariff.
4. 1t will be seen that his concep-
tions of foreign policy look to an enor-
nous development of our trade with
other nations, by safe, peaceful and
honorable means.
5. 1t will be seen that the same
Democratic party which has cursed the
country by its reckless incapacity and
has made the present House public
nuisance must seize the government
if he should be defeated.-N. Y. TTi-
bltne.

1t is a very easy thing for man to be
