Ochiltree,s MaynaDimity,

That red-headed and hopeful son of
the Lone Star state, Thomas Porterhouse
Ochiltree, retired within his box and
pulled the door in after him, for some
little time after the Lasker incident
but he has now blossomed out anew with
an aureole of magnanimity around his
auburn-topped head that would put the
recent western sunsets to the blush.
The scene of his latest triumph was
again the floor Of the House, and this
time the subject under discussion
was the shore of Texas in the
river and harbor appropriation bill
There was an item in the bill ap
propriating S250,O0O for the harbor at
Galveston. The champion fabricator OF
the country threw metaphorical bomb.
shell into the legislative camp by asking
that the item be struck ont. The Texas
statesman explained to his mystilied
brethren that though this amount has
been annually appropriated and used for
twelve years under the direction of army
engineers, there was at present less water
In the harbor than when the 80 called
Improvement was commenced. The
motive of Ochiltree's magnanimity was
seen in his concluding remark that while
Texas would not ask anything in the
river and harbor bill, it would at the
next session of Congress ask that the
question of the improvement of the Gal
weston harbor be considered In special
bill, and that Capt. Eads, the civil
engineer, was perfecting system of
improvements which the Texas delega-
tion would ask be adopted by Congress.
Ochiltree may be right, but he will
find II harder to convince Congress of
the necessity Of lump appropriation of
81 ,O00.o 900 to Galveston harbor, than to
rush through the Lasker resolutions.

THuRsDAY EVENING, JUNE II, 1894.
TIldeu,s Final Resolve.

No letter written for years by men of
high public station will attract more
attention or be perused with more
thoughtfulness than the text of Tilden's
absolute declination Of the presidency,
which Is printed in full elsewhere.
Though long expected, 1t comes with
somewhat Of shock TO the great body
Of Democrats in the country who had
hoped 10 live TO see the day when the
wrong Of 1876 might be righted in the
person Of him who had suffered most by
It. The document is a statesman.like e
production, elevated high above the
average political literature Of the times,
and IL shows clearly how well adapted
the sage of Greystone was to carry out
the reform policy that he inaugurated in
New York in the presidential Office TO
which he was elected eight years ago.
One looks In vain through the letter
for an arTaignment Of the party that
cheated him out of his rightful possess
sion. A man of smaller calibre would have
taken this opportunity for the venting of
his spleen ON the cause of a great wrong
done him. Not so, Mr.. Tilden. His let.
ter Is devoted to consideration of Il g
necessities of the government after
"twenty years of continuous malad
ministration. Though seeing as clearly
as in 1876 the grave evils surrounding
the governmenment under Republican
rule, he feels that the one who would
lead in the fore front of battle against
this corruption, and establish reform on
the ramparts OF the government, must
unite to a strong will-power vigorous
physical strength. This the sage of
GreystOne regretfully admits he does not
possess.
The closing sentences of this letter, in
which the once elected president refuses
his proffered vindication at the hands OF
the Democracy, are historically impres.
sive: "Having given TO their welfare
whatever of health and strength pos
sessed, or could borrow from the future,
and having reached the term Of my ca.

A Poor Excuse for Blaine.

IL will not do for our Republican
friends to condone the smirched record
OF Blaine by calling on him who is not
guilty to cast the first stone. The un
fortunate woman in the scriptural story
who was taken in sin the most ia
grant was an uupretending parsonage in
the lower walks of life, and not candi-
date for the highest office in the gift OF
fifty millions of people. There may be
some Republicans who have become SC
blinded by partisanship that they will
close their eyes to the mis1eeds OF their
party candidate, and believe without
examination, that the charges against
his honesty are uufounded. But the
mighty revolt in the party headed by
George William Curtis, Thomas Went
worth HigginsoD, Charles Francis
Adams, and a score of other Republic
cans, equally prominent, shows that a
strong element of the party have reached
the sensible conclusion that pure princi-
pies cannot be put into effect by impure
m,r.
1t is true that Blaine'5 record in pub
lie life is not 80 bad as that OF Garfield.
But the dead Garfield was weak man,
who was more tool than the prime
mover In the bad acts with which his
name is associated. Blaine, on the
contrary, possesses an inherent unscru.
pulousness, and with his audacity and
Yankee sh,artness, it is hard to predict
to what lengths lie would go were he
placed In the commanding position of
chief magistrate of the republic. His
success in November would mean the
endorsement of all the jobbery with
which he has been connected, and it
would do more to vitiate tho political
generation that is growing up than any.
thing conceivable. If the safety of the
people is the supreme law, it is the duty
Of every citizen irrespective of party to
work to secure the political burial Of the
Jingo statesman.
