Mr.. Tilden's Letter.

Mr.. Samuel j. Tilden's long expected
reply to the resolutions in his honor,
which were adopted by the re ent
Democratic National Convention, has
appeared. The public has been led by
tho Democratic newspapers to believe
that when this document was published,
the question of Mr.. Tilden's profound
admiration for Mr. Cleveland would be
definitely settled. But careful read
ing of the letter fails to show that Mr..
Cleveland's name is so much as men,
toned in it. The ouly allusion TO him
is in the last two lines, where Mr. Til
den says: "Tbis Tthe reform of the
Government, can only be accomplished
by the election OF the Democratic can
didates for President and Vice-Presi-
dent"
1t is known of all men that Mr.. Til
den entertains very contemptuous
opinion Of Republicans, ana the Repub-
lican party. Indeed in the letter we
are referring 10, he affirms that "the
Republican party is largely made up Of
those who live by their wits" His
sincerest conviction Is that "the Repub-
lican party must CO." for, he says, "the
Democratic party more readily that the
Republican party can be nodded TO
the support Of reform measures. He
is SO deeply impressed with the neces-
sity Of turning out the Republicans,
that he averts his gaze from the con-
temptation Of Mr.. Cleveland's weak
nesses. He ignores the reform candi-
date, because he believes the latter will
merely be an instrument in the hands
Of the party.
But suppose Mr.. Cleveland had been
man TO awaken Mr.. Tilden's ad:nira-
tion! II Mr.. Tilden could persuade
himself that Mr. Cleyeland was fitted
by nature and by taining for the Presi-
dency, how his words would have gone
ringing TO his party. His hopes arc
only hopes. His devotion to his party
bids him speak, but there is no conf
dence in his tone. This letter is the
most significant notification that has
been made, as yet, and it can scarcely
fail TO produce a bad effect upon the
Democratic canvass.
The letter is remarkable for the sim
gular admission that is made in it.
Mr.. Tilden hardly evinces his character
istlc sagacity when he AYERS that parties
are not TO be reformed from within;
for history shows that while the incite-
ments to improvement may come from
without, they are not effective until they
are taken up within. In other words,
progress is more frequently accom-
plished by reform than by revolution.
All the political reputation that Mr..
Tilden has himself won. was caused by
his efforts to relieve his own party from
corrupt rings-the Tweed Ring and
the Canal Ring. g.--RhiLddeiphia Press

TO ANYTHING like honesty. If they stole
at the above rate with the comparative
ly mlted resources of the Government
at that time, what would they do now
if they were again placed in powerP
Take, for example, the Swartwout case.
A defalcation in those days, and under
the circumstances, of 81, 205, 900 would
be equal to about $40, 900, 000now, con-
sdering the difference in the revenue
of the port of New York in 1880 and in
1884.
In view Of the above facts and the
failure of the Democracy to make good
the charge Of corruption against the
Republican party, and the positive evil
dence on record of Democratic knavery
and dishonesty, candid public and
honest men of all parties should unite
in depreciation of such party and cast
their votes and influence for the men
and party whose aims have always been
honest, and whose record stands out in
such striking contrast with the over
whelming and irrefutable evidence Of
Democratic dishonesty. National Re

Some Real Democratic "Rerorm."


Mr. Thomas A. Hendricks and other
leading Democrats having raised the cry
Of corruption, and begun to clamor
loudly for reform. II becomes the duty
sf all honest and fair-minded men TO
look into the matter and see which of
the two great political parties stand
most in need OF reformation. While
doing the stealing themselves the Dem
ocrats have always been ready to charge
corruption and stealing upon their OPP
ponents. They shout "stop thief to
cover up the rascalit.es OF their own
thieving officials. They below for re-

rfbly and lcarfully corrupt themselves,
they naturally suspect all others OF dis

Prospective glance at the history OF their
party while in power, going back for
instance to the palmy days Of Jack
son. The defalcation Of Samuel Swart-
woul, Collector OF Customs at New
York under President Jackson's Ad-
minstrat on, according TO reports of
committees, Twenty-fifth Congress,
third session, No. 3lJ, amounted TO the
sam Of Sl,22j, ,705.69. j sse Hoyt,
Swarlwout's successor in Office from
1888 10 lS4l, followed the example OF
his illustrious predecessor, a1d stole
from the Government the sum Of
S2I8, ,S71.s0, and, like Swartwout.
was allowed to go scot free.
Here, then, is the sum of 81 4,57L4 40
stolen from the Government by two
Democratic officials under Democratic
rule. Following along down through
the different Democratic Administra-
tions, from the first term of Andrew
Jackson to the end OF the most corrupt
and thieving Administration Of James
Buchanan, II will be seen that stealing
was the order OF the day in all depart
ments OF the Government.

Running Up Stream.



The novel sight OF the Mississippi flow.
ing up stream was witnessed at North
Pepin recently, when the Chippewa
poured such volumes OF water into the
.Cwer end of the lake that it could not es'
cape down stream. A number of illustra'
tive incidents are noted ny he Pepln Star.
A mail carrier and his companion found 1t
beyond their power to row skif down
the Mississippi to a point OPPOSITE the
mouth Of the Chippewa. So great was the
violence with which the roaring torrent
poured out Of the latter river against the
Minnesota bluffs above Reeds landing
that the water recoiled, bubbling, eddy
ing and dividing, AMI even staying the
current OF the great Mississippi, which
runs at velocity OF three miles per hour,
and turning 1t back up stream at the same
rate. Logs, drift.wood and all manner OF
debris foated up the Mississippi River
into Lake Pepin and TO the shores at the
village Of Pepin, and on above the red,
muddy waters Of the Chippewa could
be seen even to Lake City. The steamer
Robert Dodd was unable to tow raft
out OF the mouth Of the lake. The steamer
Pepln encountered a stout resistance on
Friday to get by the mouth Of the Chip
pewa, in passing to and from Reeds. An
other steamer, with raft in tow, was
twelve hours pushing from Prescott TO
the head of Lake Pepin, the usual time
being six hours. This Is easily explained.
The head OF the lake is not any higher
than the Chippewa is at the ferry cross.
ing at the "Flower Pot" At Pepin the
water level Is lower. Prescott is only
seven feet higher by the railroad sur.
vey than the head OF the lake, u distance
Of thirty miles. The rise at that place
from the Chippewa alone, 1t is estimated,
was four or FIVE feet. This affected the
running current above lied Wing and un.
doubtedly deadened tho velocity Of the
Mississippi unaffected by external
causes. The river is stationary at the
top OF the rise, l4.6, which it reached yes.
