North-to the South tits resurrection. Elk
Senator Gordon, of Georgia, in speech at
York.
The resurrection" seems to have dawned
already. The beautiful sentiment ex-
pressed is exactly the same expressed in 1860,
when the Democratic minority went into re-
bellion. Up to November of that year Demo
Gratis saluted "your flag" because that party
was in power. The very moment its ousting
was made apparent they lost all interest in the
flag of the Nation and went off and made one
of their own. Now, for the first
time in twenty-four years, ex-senator Gordon
consents to recognize the flag of the Union
as his flag, and why7 except that there are in
dicatiOns that Democracy has succeeded
again. Suppose that in 1888 the Democratic
party be deposed, is it not a fair inference that
Democracy; treacherous, revengeful, traitor
Gus still, will again go into sulks and decline
to salute ''your fag"f The patriot salutes the
Nations flag at all times-it is the flag of the
Union, and as such is the flag of every
patriotic man in the Nation.

WE hope the good mon" who assisted in
putting the Democratic party into power, en-
ioyed the spectacle on Saturday night, when the
horde of ratifying Democrats was headed by the
Honorable Sim Coy, law-defying, break

and the police authorities are afraid, because
he is a Democratic "boss" and the chairman
of the Democratic county committee.

The point is now being made about the next
United States senator from New York that the
Legislature is decidedly Republican. Chester A.
Arthur wants the place. His distinguished
services in this campaign are known all over
the land. Whenever the party was in danger
at any considerable point he sat down and ate
another hearty dinner. He did come and deposit
his valuable vote. Governor Cornell is one
probably another Possibly Mr.. Platt is a
candidate. Sherman Rogers would make a
good senator. but have my doubts whether
he has the hand on politics availing for such
matters.

1T is believed that David Davis, of Bloom

for United States senator from Illinois. But
If the Democrats have control of the Legisla-

The New York Secretary of State is Gener-
al Joseph B. Carr who led the 'Jersey
Brigade" at the Orchard and Malvern Hill;
he had his horse shot under him at Bristow
Station, and again at Gettysburg, where he
was severely wounded by its fall; he figured
heroically at Big Bethel, and bore conspic-
uous part in all the battles of the Army of the
Potomac, up to the surrender of Lee. In 1879
he was placed at the head of the Republican
ticket in New York and was elected Secre-
tary of State. He was reelected in 1881, and
again in 1888, being the only Republican on
the State ticket who was successful. He is a
member of the Board of State Canvassers has
the custody of the returns, and will be called
upon to sign the certificates of the successful
presidential electors, whoever they may hap

afterward. The country may rely upon both

ONE or sHERMANiS JOBS.

When any iobbery on the Treasury is to be
effected John Sherman is handy man to
have in the Republican family. He has just
succeeded in tucking into the civil service
appropriation blu an item of $4,000 to pay
for a painting termed the electoral Com
mission" This small steal has been knock
ing at the doors of congress for some time.
1t has been struggled into appropriation bills
before. Sherman and Garfield worked to-
gether on the job, but they always failed,
though Sherman has sandwiched it in a SEN
ate bill before, but the house has always been
too vigilantt to permit the steal As things
have been going on at Washington the steal
is not very large one, though there is not
member of congress who
would individually pay 5000 for the
wretched daub. At the best it is not truth
full picture. 1t processes to represent the trial
of the Louisiana case before the commits
sion. 1t effects to represent the presence of
people who were not attendants upon the
scene. 1t offers the faces of men and wo-
men in the correspondents gallery who were
never there in their lives, and other faces
were put in rs means of aattery to secure
influence to procure the purchase of the pic
ture ut a high price, A Washington letter
gives the following strange history of the
painting:
1t was paiutedby the wife of a keeper Of pho
tograph gallery here After it was completed
the government declined TO purchase it; the
photographer borrowed money on il to pay the
rent his gallery, promising to keep the paint
ing there as a security. The money was ad-
N1ra,Na1
pher further occupation Of the place also. After
wards the husband OF the landtady was lmpf-
Gated in series of swindles and forgeries in
connection with the failures Of the German
American bank here, Of which he was an officer.
We IS still under dozen indictments in con-
uection with the bank failure. The land
lady ran out of cash, and was about seiz-
ing the painting by the regular
legal process, the money advanced on the paint
ing and the rent of the gallery studio not hav
| ing been paid. when she discovered that .'elec
toral commission has been spirited out OF the
way The whereabouts OF 1t remained q secret
for couple of years, and appears that it is now
here By an arrangement between the landlady
and the artist The landlady is 10 be paid her
money il congress buys the painting. The ar
fist has given herself the most prominent place
in the picture, between Blaine, Jere Black
and William NJ. Eyarts. She was never present
at session Of the commission.
1t is exceedingly disereditable to Senator
Sherman to lend himself TO this transaction.
1t would be a disgrace to the national capt
toll to have such memento of the actors in
the great wrong and fraud that was inflicted
on the country by the notorious. IS to ~
commission. There are features enough of
that shameful eonsumation to embalm it in
public memory without sny painting to rem
der its historic infamy more conspicuous or
HbeIous. II Mr.. Sherman really wants the
