party he belonged. His loyalty is
beyond question; his record Is stain
less in all the relations of life, and
no man living could be more conf
IDENTIFY trusted in the White House.
His Inauguration would put to i'm
mediate fight the flocks of cormor-
ants which have been fattening on
the body polite.
With the inception of our govern
ment the viii of the majority was
made The law of the land, and it
must, as a necessity Of our system,
be taken for granted that the people
are always right. However false in
morals or logic, the acceptance of
the theory in politics is the only
safeguard against despotism. That
the American people can appreciate
so highly the merits Of the fight for
abstract principles made by the be-
dy which acknowledges Carlisle for
its leader, is only another evidence
that this law of our being can never
lead us into the quick sands of anar-
chy.
In national politics the doctrines
of the party must be distinctly for
mulated, and the fight made square
ly on a platform of principles SO
plain as to need no explanations and
admit of no equivocations; in Flori-
da no argument of expediency must
preclude an honest fight for new
Constitution; a revision Of the rev
enue laws. and prompt reform of
Iongstanding abuses even where the
continuance of these would seem to
benefit the party. Men may change
but principles never, and both par
ties might as well appreciate the
fact that the people are now able to
discriminate between common sense
and folly in politics as well as III
business. No urgent public danger
now diverts the attention of the
great public from measures of civil
necessity; no cry Of danger to the
public veal can insure fOrgetfulnes,
or excuse the ruinous dictation Of
, corrupt partisan men OF measures.

4 DISRESPECTFUL oAR-DRIynn.

Gilhooly came very near being u.s.
saulted yesterday by brutal street-car
driver. The Galveston Street-Car Com.
pany, probably to save the wear and
tear Of the rails, has stuck up q notice :
"Drivers must not stop on curves"
Yesterday Gilhooly halted an East
Broadway car. The driver put on the
brakes and stopped the car. Gilhooly
went up to him and said:
81 don't care to ride just now, but
want to ask you question"
"What do you want" asked the dri-
yer with very improper impotence.
81 see you are forbidden to stop on
curves. Now, want to know how it is
about benders. You are not allowed To
stop on curves, but does the company
permit you to go on bender?"
The rage OF the driver exceeded that
OF defeated candidate, and he used
some very supplementary language.
Why is it the street-car company does
not employ polished gentlemen as dri-
vers P-Gaiucston Meas.

The Philadelphia Times Qndepcn-
dent, says: "We believe that Blaine
is beaten. The popular tide as de-
velopcd by the important October
elections is an unerring index of an
adverse current against Blaine, and
an adverse Blaine tide in the middle
of October means Blaine Waterloo
in November. The Ohio Blaine vic
tory is the victory of death. 1t makes
plain the truth that on the largest
vote ever polled; with the most Law
ish expenditure ever known in any
State; with Federal officials called
from their public duties to work for
the party in nearly every precinct; ;
with Blaine leading the battle in eX-
haustivc personal effort for fort
night, and with the Prohibition vote
going nearly solid for the Blaine tick
cts the thoroughly Republican
State of Ohio falls fully one
half below the voluntary majority Of
October, 1880, and two-thirds below
the Garfield majority. 1t is an uner-
ring index that Ohio with her over
whelming Republican majority for
an acceptable Presidential candidate
must be fought over again in Novem-
Der to assure her electoral vote for
Blaine. 1t assures Indiana to Cleve-
land without a desperate struggl {,
and it is notice that Illinois, Michi-
gan and Wisconsin must be contested
as at least remotely doubtful States.
1t is notice the leaders the of Plumed
Knight that his battle henceforth is
Fearful gale and tide; that just when
he and his resources are exhausted
the Cleveland leaders take the field
With fresh resources and growing
popular sentiment in their favor. VT
