With to-day comes to close not merely the
Arthur administration, but the long lease of
power ofthe republican party. 1t is twenty-four
years tomorrow since Abraham Lincoln took
the oath of office. The record of that twenty
four years will forever fill a great page in the
nations history. Perhaps 1t cannot be sum-
married. more clearly than by remembering
that the first republican President was escorted
to the Capitol through streets lined with negro
slaves, while the first democratic President
who breaks the republican line will be escorted
to the Capitol in part by negro citizens bearing
arms

This Is the last day of the Garfield-Arthur adj
ministration. 1t is idle to speculate on what
might have beeen had the aSsassins pistol been
pushed an inch aside. Garfield had many rare
traits of character, but he had yet to prove his
talent for government. The beginnings of his
administration were not entirely suspicious.
The party was rent by bitter feudS, and ominCus
clouds rose on our foreign horizons. 1t was at
this time that Mr.. Arthur was called, under the
most distressing and embarrassing circum-
stances, to succeed To the executive office. The
murderer of his predecessor had claimed that
he did the act on behalf of the faction with
which Arthur was identified. Threats of VEN
geance were openly made. His every act was
liable to be harshly and wrongfully construed.
Moreover, he was without experience in ma
tional politics had never filed an elective
office, and was not inclined by nature or habits
for the combining and responsible task that now
awaited him. He felt his own deficiencies, he
felt that the country mistrusted his capacity
and his inclination TO administer the govern
ment wisely.
This modesty, as the result has proven, was
his best friend. lie sought to calm apprehen-
sion by policy OF silence and pea &c, he set be-
fore himself high ideal of duty in the dis
charge of his public functions and in his life as
our first citizen passed the years in quiet dig
nifty. 1t was impossible that he should escape
criticism, but, whole, his administration
will pass into history with respectable stand
Ing for discretion and ability.
