and its magnificent location at the head of
ocean navigation on the st. Johns, and in the
midst of charming farming and fruit produ-

for the news Of the PcninsuIar. and affords
the opportunity to make it what it is pro

THE SUN
NEW YORK. 1884

About sixty million copies of THE SUN have
gone out of cur establishment during the past
twelve months.
If you were to paste end to end all the col
umnS of all THE SUN printed aud sold last year
You would get continuous strip Of interesting
information, common sense wisdom, sound
doctrine, ana sane wit long enough to reach
from Printing House square to the top of
Mount Copernicus in the moon, then back to
Printing House square, and then three-quar-
tiers of the way back to the moon again.
But THE sun is written for the inhabitants
OF the earth; this same strip of intelligence
would girdle the globe twenty-seven or
If every buyer of a copy of THE sun during
the past year has spent only one hour over it,
9nother holir' TINS newspaper in 1888 has af-
-Orded the human race thirteen thousand years
Of steady reading, night and day.
1t Is only by little calculations like these that
you can form any idea of the circulation of the
most popular of American newspapers, or Of
its influence on the opinions and actions of
American men and women.
THE sun is, and will continue to be, news
paper which tells the truth without fear Of
consequences, which gets at the facts no mat
ter now much the process costs, which presents
the news all over the world without waste of
words and in the most readable shape, which
is working with all its heart for the cause of
honest government, and which therefore be-
lteVes that the Republican party must go, and
must go in this coming year = our Lord, 1884.
If you know THE Sun, like il already,
and you will read it with Il, 0med diligence
and profit during what is S, TO be the most
interesting year in its history. If you do not

years ago As a result of their labors, and to
encourage the workers a silk exhibit has just
been held in Philadelphia, which was entirely
satisfactory in showing the extent of
their efforts, and what can be done
by women in that direction. Entries were
made from twenty different States, and
prizes awarded on the basis of the quality and
quantity Of thread reeled from one hundred
cocOons. Of the ten prizes offered, one was
awarded to Mrs. Anna Husted, of Liberty,
Ind. Silk culture cannot be successfully con-
Quoted on a large scale, nor are its profits
sufficiently large to justify the giving up Of
persons entire time; but it is a light en-
ployment, particularly adapted to women, or
even children, in the country, and sufficiently
lucrative to repay them for the time and
trouble necessary. These claims, at least, are
made for the occupation by the ladies of the
society, and in these days, when so many
women are clamoring for Something to do, "
it seems worth while to experiment in this
direction.

THERE is more than the usual amount of
ignorant twaddle passing current through the
newspapers for wise and sagacious opinions
and estimates from persons reported ito be
prominent in politics." and who Fknow the
currents" in such and such State. Indiana
suffers as severely as any other Commonwealth
from the utterances of these wonderful wise
men, who are bounced upon by reporters,
when away from home, and their vapid moth
ings given out as important revelations. One
of the latest is from person who is stated to
body else could possibly know, and who oracu-
larly names persons who could just 'sweep
the State" like cyclone This wiseacre is
made to say: II don't think Mcdonald is
anything like as strong with the Democrats of
Indiana as Hendricks, who was never defeated
for any office he sought. The old ticket would
be exceedingly hard to beat in Indiana 1t
might be pointer to this political historian
to inform him that Mr.. Hendricks Sought
OiiC clllC0 VI 0ONGIllOr u III 1OOU, dIlu
he was defeated by a man of the name of Hen
ny S. Lane by majority of 9, 757 votes. Mr..
Hendricks again Sought the Office of Gov
ernor in the year 1868, and was de-
feated by a man named Conrad Ba-
ker. In 1872 he again Sought
the Office of Governor, and because he posed
as a temperance man, and bamboozled the in
nocent and unsuspecting extremists who laid
their ultimate salvation on the Baxter law. he
defeated Gen. Tom Browne by l, 142 votes, and
50 soon as he got into Office recommended to
the Legislature the repeal of the very law
whose special friends had given him their
votes. This stuff about Mr.. Hendricks never
having been defeated for office in Indiana is
of piece with the balderdash that is being
printed all over the country about the polit-
ical condition of this State. The most of it
has purpose at the bottom of it, and when
facts interfere with that purpose they are
blindly ignored or wilifully perverted.

THE New York Tribune, in an editorial
held to be quite significant because of its at
titude as the personal organ of Mr. Blaine,
gives fair warning that the Chicago candidate
Blaine or for Mr.. Arthur and those ambitious
men who are running as shadows and ex-
pecting to be ''heirs" to somebody else's
votes, will be disappointed And very prop
erly and very certainly. If Mr.. Blaine's
friends control the convention, then no one
but Mr. Blaine will be so strong, and the
same thing if the friends of President Arthur
be in the majority. The Tribune says;
"The Tribune believes that the President
himself would be much stronger candidate
than any other who can be nominated by the
influence Of his supporters, For any such
candidate would necessarily represent the in
huences which President Arthur has been
strong and faithful enough, in many cases, to
resist He came to the presidency owing
nothing to them. Any other candidate nom
mated by those Influences, owing everything
to them would be subjected to inmeasurably
greater pressure. What his conduct would
be the people have some means of knowing.
But no one can know what to expect of an
other candidate, selected in spite of the wishes
of majority of Republicans by the influences
which the President has often resisted and
has sometimes been unable to resist A
dummy President is not what the people
want. If it is desirable to select candidate
who will suit Mr.. Arthur and his friends, it
would be better to select him than anybody
else"
This is but the statement Of principle that
has been indicated in many political conven-
tons The Chicago nominee will be man
who can stand upon his own merits, and will
receive majority of votes bsause he is held
10 be personally worthy, and not because he is
the political ''heir' to anybody, or is playing
what he may believe to be shrewd hide
and-seek game under somebody's cOat-tail. 1t

the Republican convention will not accept IN

administrator de bonis non as its candidate
after the principal shall be out of the race
whether that principal be Mr.. Arthur or Mr.
Blaine or Mr.. anybody else. Whoever ex-
poets to come into the convention as sort of
''me-too' candidate, at the end of some
stronger mans string, is building his hopes on
a false basis. The Chicago nominee will be a
real man, and not shadow. Neither the
President, nor Mr.. Blaine, nor Mr.. Edmunds,
nor Mr.. Logan can transfer his votes at will to
some alter eco.

tifully less, until now it has had the enacting
clause stricken entirely out of it. Well, the
Kentucky Democratic State convention met,
and MIR. Mcdonald was never so much as
mentioned On the contrary, it voted unani-
mously for J. G. Carlisle as the choice for
President. OF course, this simply means Mr..
Tilden. The vote for Carlisle was mere Ken

''Dombey and Son" presents in Captain Ed
ward Cutie and Captain Jack Bunsby two
entertaining characters. The nautical wis
dom of Bunsby held Captain Cutie in bonds
of profound reverence. ga man of mind and
a man as can give an opinion" was Cuttle's
worshipful tribute to the sage who Seemed to
be always on the lookout for something in
the EXTREMIST distance and to have no ocular
knowledge of anything within ten miles"
But it is mistake the impression that
distinguished Indiana Democrat suggested
Jack Bunsby to Dickens's pen. We are war
ranted in saying that the great novelist had
never read any political interview with I'm
diana's favorite son" when he wrote 'Dombey
and Son." 1t is also noticeable that Mr.
Hendricks's grammar is not so faulty as
Bunsbys, and some persons think the former
a degree less rash in expressing views on
uncertain questions than was the captain
of the Cautious Clara" There is no
need of reprinting late interviews with Mr.
Hendricks, the public having read them. Bat
to show the contrast between them and those
with Jack Bunsby one or two of the latter
are given. Captain Cutie, apprehensive Of
the loss of the ''Son and Heir" the ship in
which Walter Gay had sailed away (the Nor
rison bill has gone down, by the way, sought
Bunsby's opinion thereon. Bunsby, after a
pause, thus slowly made reply:
whereby Why mott If So what odds?
Can any man say otherwise No Awast
then! Do l believe that this here Son and
Heirs gone down9 Mayhap Do say so9

He isn't forced to run up on the GoOdwins,
but he may. The bearings of this observa-
ton is in the application of it. That amt no
part of my duty Awast thenI Keep bright
lookout for'ard, and good luck to you"
Any one familiar with Mr.. Hendricks lit
erary style will observe that Bunsbys is the
more declamatory, and his sentences shorter.
This distinction is apparent also, in Bunsby's
answer, on another OCCASION when Captain
Cutie interviewed him as to whether old So
ellis would ever return. (See remarks OF Mr..
Hendricks after his recent call on Tilden)
'1f so be, returned Bunsby, 'tas he's dead,
my opinion is he won't come back no more.
If so be as he's alive my opinion is he will.
Do say soY No. Why not2 Because the
bearings of this observation lays in the apph-
cation of it." ayl9
A further and final proof that Jack Bunsby
was never photographed from Indiana's favor
tie son is in third interview Captain Cutie
had with him, in the following words;
"fWhat cheer, my lad, what cheerf'
e. badp'
That settles it. Whatever the resemblance
in other respects between Mr. Hendricks and
Captain Bunsbys interviews MIR. Hendricks
has never said g. bad"

the British manufacturers, after paying ST. per
ton duties, would be $l8. Had the Morrison
bill passed, the duty would have been but $13 60
instead of $l7 per ton, and the British manufac
turer would have been enabled to increase his
net price by the amount of the difference IN the
rate of duty-$3. 40-and still sell as cheaply in
