CRITICISM OF CANDIDATES AND OFF,
GALS.

The Economist a.ks whether there are any
limits to what may be sad in public as to
the character and conduct OF cur rulers
and of candidates for the chief magistrscY
of the Republic? "Our forefathers had q
very definite conviction on the subject
They regarded any personal disrespect to
the heads of the State rs an oticnse against
both public dccency and the interests of
society. They punished the offense by law
not merely because they thought it one
against good morals, but because they
thought the preservation of public order
was impossible in community in which
the representatives of the majority of the
State were made personally contemplate
in the opinion of the common people" If
there is no limit in law, there may be in
common decency, and it is within the
province of the press of the country to set
it up and maintain it,
II is bad enough that criticism Of those
who offer for place should degenerate into
falsehoods scandals. But that is a far
more dangerous tendency, and one that is
increasing steadily, which cultivatcs disrc-
spect for official station. 1t has come to
pass that a very large class of partisans
continue the contcmpuous attitude toward
those they offered rs candidates. after they
have been chosen to represent depart
mcnt of the Government Thus, in the
case Of President Hayes, he was constantly
spoken of by the Democratic press in the
most insulting manner, and steadily ad-
dressed as an imposter and usuper. Pres
ident Arthur, likewise by the same class of
papers, is contcmpluously referred to rs
his accidency," and as plain Mr. Ar
thur, with such emphasis as to give il to
be understood that Sneer is intended.
There should be no restriction to the full
and free discussion of the fitness of men
for place. In that liberty is anchored one
of the chief foundation stones of the Re
public Nor should official action be
shielded by official station Nor should
incompetency be so armorcd by

true color declared. But is not necessary

condemn. In analyzing the act of the Off
cial, in questioning the policy of an ad-
ministration, in examining the ruling of
Court, or the theories Of law-givcr, it
is not necessary that the spirit Of con-
tempt" should be stimulated, any more
than in approval there need he manifested
any servility. While we do not kncci in
the dust when the King goes by, we are
not promoting the cause of republican in
stitutions if VIC fly to the other extreme
and kick the dust upon official robes
There is a certain respect and Difference due
officials, because they represent what we
esteem to be the Hottest forms of human
government. If we have no respect for the
officer whom we choose to administer the
laws, we are but one step removed from dis
respect of the law itself, and the next
stride is to rebellion. Under monarchical
forms respect for public officials is en-
forced, aud largely hollow; with us il

THE ARREST OF PRIcE:-The Woodland
Mail of yesterday refers to this matter as
follows: The arrest of William Price,
who was wanted here to answer to a charge
of cmbezzlement, was brought about in a
very singular manner. Officer Lawson saws
he does not know what possessed him with
the conviction that Price was in San Fran
cisco, but nevertheless he was firm in the
belief, so much so that he got aboard the
morning train Monday bound for that city
About the first person he saw on getting off
the train was the man wanted. He walked
up to him, placed his hand on his shout
der, and said: ! want YOU On seeing
whom the officer was, Price replied All
right I'm ready to GO Price afterward
stated that when he left Woodland he went
direct to Mexico, where he was attacked by
yellow fever. Upon recovering he returned
to San Francisco, under no other disguise
than modification in the style of his
beard. He also remarked that he would
rather be in the penitentiary than where
he had been The amount of the reward
which Mr.. Lawson viii receive is $500

II, as is alleged, influential Irish Amer
leans have urged Parnell to issue al ad-
dress TO Irish voters in America requesting
them to support Mr.. Blaine, in the hope
that his election will result in fomcnting
difficulties between England and the United
States" then the aforesaid influential
Irish Americans are asses, and we admire
the discretion manifest in keeping their
names out Of print Irish American
whatever the term may mean-should, and
will largely, support Mr.. Blaine, because in
his administration is the broadest probable
ity of wise and liberal guidance Of the ship
of State. But if the Parnellites desire to
injurc Mr.. Blaine, they have taken pre-
cisely the most certain way of doing it, in
asking Parnell to interpose his advice in a
matter that he has no business with. We
believe he is man Of too good sense to
commit any such bunder as it is said he
has been solicited to do. There is reason
to believe that those cunning tricksters, the
Democrats, are at the bottom of the whole
matter

EDS REcoRD-UNIoN A nice little
church belonging 10 the Methodist Episco-
pal denomination has just been completed
at this place, and was dedicated last Sun
day, Presiding Elder Benson officiating. 1t
is a very complete and creditable house of
worship, being finished in good taste and
style, with pews of the latest pattern, floors
neatly carpeted stained windows, fine
chandeliers and everything of most pleas
ing character. There was a large attend
ance at the services last Sunday, and the
entire cost of the church has been paid,
with the exception of about 800. Arrange
ments will be made at, the coming Confer
ence to include our church in the Brown
Valley circuit, when we will have regular
services. These will be to succeed the oc
casional services which have been main
tanned for years past at the residence of
Mrs. Phillips, at the Peoria House. The
building of the church has been mainly
through the instrumentality and efforts of
Mrs. Phillips, who is now 81 years of age,
and phillips Chapel is very probably
the name that will be given the new edi-
fee. s.

HARPER's WEEKLY November 5, 1881,
said: THE letter of Secretary Blaincu
the Panama Canal was written on the 9th
of june last, and is now transmitted to the
Senate under the resolution lately adopted
The letter states with admirable frankness
and firmness the traditional and reasonable
position Of the country, and it will be uni
yersally sustained. BY our situation our
interest in a waterway across the isthmus
is paramount; we have Solemnly guaran-
teed its neutrality by treaty with Colombia,
and the guarantee needs no assent from any
other power. As Mr.. Blaine truly says, in
time of war we could no more permit the
passage of armed hostile expeditions
through Panama canal than over the rail
ways that connect the Atlantic and Pacific
shores of this country; and we should take
all necessary precautions to prevent an
offensive use of such a canal against our
interests whether upon land or sea-

WORMS KILLING SHEEP.-A gentleman
interested in the wool business states that
he has received information that the sheep
on many of the ranges in the vicinity of
Lake Tahoe are suffering from the attacks
of worm, which operates at the base of
the neck, and has caused death in many
instances. The hockS of Perry Richardson.
of Sheridan, and Mrs Z, j. Atkinson. are
mentioned among those that have suf-
fered. This ailment is something new,
unless il is allied to the attacks of grub
worms in the heads of the sheep. For the
latter trouble turpentine poured upon the
head and rubbed in has proved a remedy.
