V4TTERSON ON PAYNE.

Naturally enough Mr.. Paynes Columbus
speech is producing profound impression upon
the Democratic mind. In calculating the
chances of the coming Presidential campaign,
Democratic prophets have been calling Ohio
either Democratic or doubtful. AS soon as they
learned that Mr.. Payne was chosen Senator,
they stopped calling it Democratic. Since read
ing his Columbus speech they are inclined TO
call it neither Democratic nor doubtful. And
this Notwithstanding the fact that at the last
election Ohio chose Democratic Governor
Among those who have taken NIr. Paync's
speech most to heart is The Louisville Courier
journal. 1t lifts up its voice in sOrrowful pro-
test with characteristic frankness. 1t styles Mr.
Payne the head of the reactonary element of
the Democratic party of the West" an old man
out Of harmony with his time" 1t asserts that
the Columbus utterance was exceedingly I'M
prudent" and devotes a column to exposing and
denOuncing the views on the tariff therein set
forth Here is n sample of the wounds which
Mr. PAYNE receives in the house of this one of
his political friends:
The Ohio idea as presented by Mr. Payne Is thoroughly
undemocrac It ontagonlzes the history, principles and
traditions OF the partyi It harmonzes with all that
weak and wicked in the policy OF the Republicans II
odopted II will not only Ohio It will destroy all
faith and confidence in the wisdom and courage OF our
leaders will detaoh from the young men OF the
country will lead TO dsinteNaton and dissolution In
this dsorganlzaton It would be impossible to count
any result in any state. In the abandonment Of the
platforms OF $780, In surrenderng the position col-
ouered in December wo destroy the fighting power OF
the organization and surrender every hope of victory.
This would lead whether we liked not to the fOrma
ton Of new party and The safety Of the States most
Or-aI to tba neno
and his Ohio supporters will not write the platform for
the noXt National contest.
Perhaps when they come to read this drastic
criticism upon the craftsmanship of the leader
whom they have exalted at the expense of Pen
dleton, the managers of the OHIO Democracy
will conclude that they have put their foot in it.
On the other hand, they may argue that the can
vass for the United States Senate was an emer-
gency, and that Democracy, by the mysterious
law of its being, is certain to so wrong in an
emergency.
In any event, this one thing is cvident-that
the Columbus speech was prOdigious blunder.
The portion Of it dealing with the tariff has
served to set regular Democrats quarrelling.
The portion dealing with Civil Service Reform
has exhibited the hollOwness Of Democratic
professions 1t recalls the dinner which would
have been success only everything was sour
except the vinegar and everything cold except
the ice-crcam.

Sir Samuel w. Baker is severe in his criticism
upon the halting course of the British Govern
ment in Egypt. But there is undoubtedly good
reason for such criticism. If the failure to send
prompt relief to Khartoum should lead to the
destruction of the garrison and the Euro
peans in that city, the English will have a
heavy load to bear There is probably no
truth in the report which again comes from
Khartoum, that part Of Hicks Pacha's army is
encampcd near Lake Rahad.
