WE must pocket our insult and try
TO look dignifed. The fact is that we
have spent a billion dollars for a
navy and have none The money
has gone somewhere, but not into
ships. So Bismarck can tell us that
our opinions are not worth reading in
the reichstag, and that we had better
keep our resolutions and our hogs at
home, and we must stand it.

THE letter of Prince Bismarck re-
turning the Lasker resolution, how
ever much it may disclaim discour
teous intent, is nevertheless a direct
insult, and could be intended for
uothing else. The pretense that he
could not lay before the reichstag a
copy of the resolution without indors-
ing its opinion and committing the
emperor to like Endorsement is dis
ingenious, 1t only makes
the insult more plainly apparen,
and studied to assign so trivial a rea.
son. Mr.. Frelinghuysen in his dig,

the nall squarely on the head, and did
it with quiet dignity that better be,

storming and dramatic posing such as
would have set the world grinning
with derision if Mr.. Blaine had been
secretary.

THE labor leaders of Pennsylvania
have n new scheme. 1t is not protec
ton by tariffs, but it calls for other
peoples money in another way. They
ask congress to supply each head of
a family $500 to colonize with. They
want Uncle Sam to give each ono of
them enough to move out West, build
n house, buy "A team and stock to
start with. The Pennsylvania labor
ers can get all these things if they
will simply turn Indians, scalp few
people on the frontier and then make
treaty with the great father at
Washington He will then support
them the year round, feed them, give
them blankets and all other needed
things. But until they become indl-
ans, with tendency to bad hearts
and the war path, they will never get
any donations from the government.

Ordway Still Lives.

Washington, Nov. 1-Ex- Gov. Ord way
has been IN Washington several days
awaiting the return of Attorney General
Brewster who has before him the report
of examiners sent to Dakota at the
governors request authorized to inquire
into all his official acts, and from which
report Gov. Ordway Gays heis sure Of
complete vindication. The governor
says he very much regrets that the re-.
port could not have been made public
prlor to the territorial election, although
in case the next legislature il packed
through Misrepresentation, with men
pledged to vote the capital from Bis
marck, without securing equally
expensive buildings, without cost
to the people, congress will
surely promptly annul such fac.
tional legislation. The governor says
he has made arrangements for the or.
ganization Of very strong land, loan
and trust company in Dakota, with
branch Offices in Washington and New
England, through which he intends to
push the building of the connecting link
in the unfinished north and south Dakota
railway lines.

Coast DeFenses.

Washington, D. O., Nov. s-Gen. John
Newton has submitted his annual re-.
port of the coast defences and urges
that the harbors of our principsI sea-
ports be made impregnable to attack by
the addition of guns Of heavy calibre
and other appliances known to modern
warfare. Past events, he says, by no
means justify the assertions made, that
our cotton and grain, are so necessary to
nations. that they could not engage in q
war with US for short period without
interruption of their supplies. These
articles SCENE to be forgotten, and that
q descent upon our coast to hold our un-
protected cities under the guns OF q
hostile feet would consume but few
months, and in the meantime cotton
and grain in sufficient quantities might
be obtained elsewhere. The modern
system is to make war sudden, sharp,
decisive, and to make the beaten party
pay the expenses. The board of en-.
gineers for Notifications has prepared
an approximate estimate of the cost OF
heavy guns and rifled mortars for
Portland, Boston, New York. Philadel.
phia, Baltimore. Hampton Roads, New
Orleans, San Francisco and other esti
mates for preliminary works of earth
and masonry.

NEW YORK DEMOCRACY.

All is not Harmonious Ia the Ranks of tho
Faithful.
New York, Oct. 3O-It is now evident
that If the situation could be set back to
three or four weeks ago there would be a
loud demand on the part of the county
democracy for union with Tammany
on the mayorality, or at least on the
democratic city ticket. The fact has at
last become patent to the whole anti-
Tanmany wing of the party in the state
that they have made mess of this year o
work. Mr.. Kelly, on the other hand. can
not help being convinced that he
has gained greater advantages by
his repulse IN Chicago than he
could have gained by defeating Cleve.
lands nomination. Tammany has only
had 10 sit still and catch good fortune
ss it dropped Whether they elect Grace
or not, they are on the high road to su.
premacy in this state. The defeat of
Cleveland next Tuesday wipes out the
old Tllden management in the interior.
A governor is to be nominated next fall,
and Mr.. Kelly is in fair way to die.
tate the nomination. With the pres.
tige of Cieveland's tidal wave ma]ori-
ty and the state patronage against
Iammany, they came near controlling
the last state convention in Boswell z.
Flo Rer's interest. In the next state
convention, after Cleveland is defeated,
there will be little or no opposition to q
solid rammany delegation from this
city. The line is squarely drawn by the
nominations for mayor, and Tammany
asks no help from the county democ-
rscy. They are glad of Grace's nomina-
ton. for, by refusing to ,ecog-
nize Grant, the county democracy
barred the way against any consideration
from Tammany in next years politics.
The bearing OF this situation on the
presidential question ia simple. 1t
means the smallest vote in this city for
Cleveland that a straight democratic
candidate has received in twenty years.
For Tammany to cast their full vote for
Cleveland would be to assist at their own
burial.
Mr.. Kelly g organ, the Star, to,day
warns the Cleveland managers to stand
from under. If the Cleveland and
Hendricks electoral ticket is 70 bs sue
cessful in the Empire State" it
says, "it will need to come down
to Harlem bridge not very far
behind the Logan ticket. We make
this statement reluctantly, but it is we'll
that democrats throughout the state
should know the TRUTH"
The reason given for this foreboding
of disaster is stated to be that the word
has been passed along the line OF the
county democracy to cut everything to
save Grace. At the Cleveland head
quarters the Stars augury 10 made light
