ROSCOE

The whirligig Of time brings about
many and remarkable changes. This
is especially true in relation to public
men. The hero Of to-day may be nearly
forgotten in the neal future, while a
little further on the same character may
again appear to receive the plaudits Of
his fellow men.
But q few years ago Roscoe Conkling
was the idol Of his party, and almost by
common consent the leading American
statesman. Proud, imperious, some
times ostentatious, he yet, nevertheless,
possessed, and in his long and brilliant
public career steadily maintained, those
elements Of true greatness which chal-
lenged for him the admiration and es-
TEEN of all parties. At a time when
corruption in congress stalked abroad at
MONDAY, and seemed to gather in its
Shiny embrace those who had long been
trusted and honored with public places;
when Credit Mobilier frauds and other
sWindling schemes attempted to direct
the course of national legislation when
strong men all around him disgraced
their country and themselves by prov
ing recreant to the trusts confided to
them, Roscoe Conkling passed unscath-
ed and untainted through that memoir
able period. In intellect, %eloquence, ex-
p~erience and ability he was the ac-
knoWledged peer of any member of the
United States senate. But ~dissensions
arose within his owl party and he vol
UNFAIRLY resigned his high position as
United States senator from the Empire
state. Since then he has pursued the
ever tenor Of his way in the pursuits Of
private life.
Recent events, however, have again
brought his name prominently before
the American people as the successor Of
u. S. Senator Iapham, whose term will
expire III March, 1855. It has been stat
ed that this result has been brought
about through the instrumentality Of
the democratic party-his enemy Of the
olden time. Verify, "the stone which
the builders refused has become the
chief stone of the corner.n There would
seem to be something Of poetic justice
in Mr.. Conkling's again entering the
U. S. Senate. Certain it is that New
York could send no ADLER or more illus
trious Of her sons to represent her in
that august body. It may be claimed
by many that, from a purely party
standpoint the election of Mr.. Conkling
would not be desirable; that it would
tend to revive old animosities and keep
alive those Earring discords in the repub-
liean party in New York which have so
long imperilled republican success. But
let it be remembered that onkling rises
far above the ordinary politician, and 50
far as his fealty to the republican party
and its principles is concerned. he is
1.-THE nohlest Roman of them all" More
than this: IT Roscoe Conkling shall
again be chosen United States senator
from the Empire state, one would no
longer, SO far as he is concerned at least,
be under the necessity Of searching
through a Tribune almanac to ascertain
the name Of the individual representing
that great state in the y. S. senate.

DAKOTA will knock hard for admis-
sion at the next session Of congress.
Governor Pierce believes that a careful
census will show a population Of 1870 00
south Dakota. 27O, 900 and north Da-
kota $50 1000. Both the population and
the area of north and south Dakota will
more than fill the measure required for
admission into the Union.

SAN JOAQUIN REPROACHED.

The Stockton papers bemoan the fact that
the San Joaquin Agricultural Association,
now in its twenty-fourth year, has yet
no Pavilion, and is forced to reduce its
fair this year to horse-racing, stock exhibit
and showing of agricultural implements,
is part of that already shown at the State
Fair, and the Stockton Independent is
authority for the statement that very few
head are owned in the district. As TO all
a speed exhibition by horses making the
circuit" There are outside of the features
mentioned none of the essentials of an ag
ricultural and industrial fair We submit
that this state of affairs is not consonant
with the spirit and intent of the Legisla
ture when it appropriated money 10 aid the
district agricultural societies. There is no
valley better able or that boasts more of its
ability to do than the San joaquin. There
is no city that more pcrsistently pushes
to the forefront Of observation its own
prominence and prosperity than Stockton,
the active trade center and capital of the
valley That these two should fail
thus far to provide the necessary
buildings where horticultural, viticultural,
art, mechanical and agricultural interests
may make displays and where the people
may at glance view the varied products of
this rich district, is deep reproach. The
San joaquin valley should have an ample
industrial hall at Stockton. As an economic
investment, San joaquin county can well
afford to build it for the valley Association,
1t certainly can ito as Sacramento did for
twenty-five years, furnish the Society with
the free use of a proper pavilion for its fair
season holding the title to the property in
itself. and using it at other times for other
than fair purposes. If the San Joaquin
Society had proper agricultural hall, our
manufacturers, tradcsmcn. inventors and
producers would largely exhibit goods an
nually at Stockton, even if the premium
| list should be confined to district exhibit
ors We trust that 4 people so energetic
ana WcII-to-uo Us thcSe Oh san joaquin
county and the city of Stockton, will not
pcrmtthe local fair again to sink 10 the level
of a mere horse race and slender exhibit
OF itinerant stock. The stock-raisers place
the San Joaquin people under humiliating
obligations, for without the display made
by the stock men of other districts the ad-
refreshments of the Association inviting
the people to attend an agricultural fair -
at which the Governor was announced to
be present and Hon. NJ. NJ. Estee to deliver
an Grafton, would have been hollow
moclery Let San joaquin redeem her
good name speedily, and give her Associa-
ton fine, large pavilion in time for occu-
nancy in 1888

THE MISTAKE HE MADE.

The editor of the indianapolis Sentinel
who originated and published the libel
upon Mrs. Blaine and blackencd the
memory OF her dead child solicited Of the
San Francisco Alta free notice Of an extra
edition of the Sentinel, rehcarsing the libel
at length. To this the Attn thus replies
In a certain sense the -lhq Is happy to
comply with the request. 1t charges
nothing for saying that it condemns in t2to
the .Sc'etiaeys attempt to make money out
of its unsavory sensation. Let the !SeatiHc'
hasten the progress Of its case in Court, and
in the meantime say as little as possible i'll
print about the affair The Sentinel man
made mistake he applied to the wrong
shop lie should have solicited the san
Francisco Examiner TO do the dirty work.
It is largely engaged in that kind Of bust
ness, and may be said by experience in the
Hill-Sharon inlamy and the slandcrjng of
virtuous women as campaign argument,
TO have acquired a high degree Of skill in
handling the unsayory. Mr.. Clarence
Greathousc would certainly accommodate
his Indiana colleague, their interests and
their methods being in common.
