THE PHILADELPHIA TINES, 1884.
THE TINES will enter upon the new year

fore in its history-more widely read and

tierCely criticized, with a more complete or

and with the same independence and fearless

dates to advance, but will meet every issue, as
il has ever done, with consistent devotion to
the right to honest government, and the pub
ne welfare. And while maintaining its posi-
tiOn as the leading journal of Philadelphia. it
will aim to be continually in the advance in all
that can ada value to q newspaper.
The value of newspaper is not in its size or
display but in the intelligence and care, the
conciSenesS and freshness with which it is
edited. TIE ZINES spends layishly for news
from an parts OF the world, but all Its DIS
patches are carefully edited and condensed. in
order TO give the complete news Of the day in
the most concise ana attractive shape, ana with
1t large variety Of entertaining and inStTuC-
tive reading. The best writers at home and
abroad are employed to enrich its columns,
and to make il a journal adapted both to the
busy man and to the leisure of the home cir
Gle, welcome visitor to intelligent and honest
CITIZENS OF every political religious and social
taste.
THE WEEKLY TINES is altogether different
from the weekly newspapers OF twenty years
ago. Inc DAY OF those papers nave gone by.
The telegraph and better local newspapers
everywhere. especially in the thriving centres
of rural population. have made the old weekly
metropolitan newspaper unSatisfying. Those
that cling to their ancient usages have lost
their hold on our fOrward-mOving people; they
are but shadows Oftheir former greatness. and
they have but a shadow OF their former power.
Those papers have had their usefulness. but il
Is gone: and, with ii, they are going. too. 1t
was not the fault Of the papers: 1t was the i'm
prOyemcnt of the country that brought about
the change. Men and women, wherever they
live, now require fresher news; and they re-
quiFe more than news.
THE WEEKLY TIMES gathers off the types of
every passing week whatever has lasting in
terest to the people at large, and sets it before
them in such generosity Of paper and print as
would have astOnished Us all twenty yeOrs ago.
DAILT-Twelye cents a week. fifty cents a
month, Sc q year, two cents copy.

THE PEOPLE POLITICS

On every side evidence Is multi I
plying that at last the people are &C
curing political power and infiu-
ence. Not the people in mass;
not the people as represented by a
few leaders; but regard for the re-
suits of individual opinion and judg-
ment is necessarily growing upon
the men who assume to control the
government. Only few years ago,
and the question as to the eligibility
of a candidate was based on his pop
uIarity with the party organs and
the machine. Now it is apparent
that his moral character is a potent
factor in the element which makes
''boom;" his public career is closely
studied by men who have little de
sire to sit on whitewashing COM
mittee, and his standing among his
neighbors is a matter of enquiry and
correspondence for the whole public
No combination Of organs and
machine politicians can foist a can
didate on either party in the coun-
try of this year 1884. The impotence
of the old methods is we'll illustra-
ted in the rivalry of Blaine and Ar
thur. Each is master of every de-
vice necessary to secure the great
prize just beyond his reach. Each
is supported by certain forces WELD
ed by party influence, mOneyed or
ganization and the prestige given
by the memory of successful parti-
san work and devotion to the old
flag with lavish appropriations. And
nowhere can be seen better indica-
ton of the purer airs now animat-
ing the political life Of the land, than
that movement of the straws which
points clearly to the fact that the
nomination of either, even by the
Republican party, is impossible. For
the nominating convention of our
opponents is so weighted by the
mass of influence exerted by ire
sponsible ignorance at the South
that 1t would be strange indeed if
its leaders could free themselves en-
tirely from the fearful quagmire
now dividing them from the region
of their political youth and pristine
glory. And the indications become
more and more strong that even
among the Republicans under the
fixed circuit of old habits, healthier
life is beginning to assert itself, and
| the public sentiment which names
Robert t. Lincoln as its representa-
tives is a protest against the dark
rule of such men as Arthur of the
Custom House, Blaine of the Multi
gan Letters, and Logan who stood
under the shadow of the bloody
shirt, aud refused justice with all
his little might to the wronged and
DETAINED Porter The material
results of the war we accept as the
natural consequence provoked by
the issues raised: Such men as
Blaine and Logan furnish the Ias1
mementoes of the fratricidal strife
now lingering in the moral atmos
phere, and the people proclaim thai
these must 60. Exeant in pace.

MEMORIAL DAY.

The President of the Ladies Me
mortal Association for Putnam cOun-
ty has requested the attendance of
all members at the city cemetery to-
morrow, at 4 P. m, to unite IN pay
ing the respect due to bravery and
lofty devotion at the graves of the
Confederate dead. All others, Wis
itors or citizens, are cordially invit-
ed to assist. At a time when friend
and foe unite in doing honor to the
living Confederate, his brothers and
sisters should show no lack of appre-
citation for the services he struggled
to render in a cause to him dearer
than life and made one with his
sense of personal honor. Even as
no land was more dearly loved; even
as no cause was more nobly support
ed and as no struggle since the dawn
of the first light on a world now full
of sin and suffering was characteriz-
ed by the display Of firmer manhood
so no people, victors or vanquished,
has shown such faithful appreciation
for loyal devotion to principle as
have done the masses of these States,
North and South, one and indivisible.
Amidst the stern cares forced up
on our people for the regeneration
of land made dearer by the sack
cloth and ashes now clothing her
bowed form, one day should be spar
ed to those upon whom dire necessi-
ty forced the manifestation of the
same love in a different shape. On
a thousand fields the children of the
South, in duty to their father-land,
breasted storms of shot and shell: in
duty to the same, we have kept pure
the faith pledged at Appomatox, and
must now bend every energy to the
regeneration, for new uses and new
destinies, of the land worthy of such
sacrifices.
To his country the citizen owes
the preservation of honor pure and
unspotted in public and private;s the
exercise Of every energy of mind and
body that the high destiny prepared
for us by God when he gave us such
dwelling place be not forfeited by
fault of ours. To the dead let us
give one day Of tender memories,
one quiet hour of silent communion
wherein business cares shall Weld to
swelling emotions of grateful pride
that such men were of kindred
race-to new resolves that in the fu-
ture no deeds of ours shall shame
the glorious past.
The present is with us; but be-
hind stretches no vista of years made
dismal by disgrace. For no record
can be made foul save by ones own
act, and the mother-heart of our
Southern land beats yet with proud
hopes and her calm eyes gaze past
us into the future
with the wonder, the love and the
yearning
Shining sublimely there"
