United States District Attorney Dorsheim-
er of New York has resigned. He finds his
duties as journalist incompatible with
those of district attorney. Had he been a
Republican he would have been turned out
long ago for offensive partisanship. Running
a Republican newspaper was one of the Of
lenses which Postmaster General Villas spec
flied in his famous circular to Democratic
congressman, instructing them how to get
rid of fourth-class Republican postmasters.
Running Democratic newspaper smacks as
much Of offensive partanship as running a

If the President wishes to make removal
without raising big storm of opposition he
now has an excellent opportunity. And
1t will not be necessary for him to mention
offensive partisanship as a cause, either.

Saturday Mr.. Samuel J. Tilden celebrated
his birthday. He is now Is years old, palsied

But it left the Democratic party without its
most sagacious and successful leader, with
no great leader in fact. What little success
in the ewes of the Democratic party the pres
ent administration has had is due to the in
sDiration drawn from the Greystone hermit
ace. That success would have been magni-
fed an hundred fold if all of Mr.. Tilden's adj
monitions had been needed and all of his
suggestions obeyed. Let us hope that Mr..
Tilden will be spared for many years'to enjoy
as an altruistie philosopher that serenity of
mind and body which he could not have as
the greatest of American politicians.
A CASE FOR THE G. A. r.
Cincinnati Commercial Gazette
We have called the attention of the Grand
Army of the Republic to the fact that com
rade has been dragged from Missouri-on
requisition by Proctor Knott on Marmaduke
to be tried for murder, the incident being
that he killed a rebelin fair fight twenty-four
years ago. The killing was done in quar-
rel growing out of the war, and there is rea-
der, who served three years after the killing
in the Union army, is because he was I'M
ion soldier. We have several times stated
the particulars of this case and propose to
do so again: Are murderers so scarce in
Kentucky that they have to be soughtin Mis-
souri, upon accusations growing out Of INCL
dents of the war of the rebellion? Are the
men who took the side of their country and
fought for it in the transition times Of the
war, to be hunted down and hanged now, be-
cause they were on the side that won the
military victory?

Among the alleged Improvements in the
diplomatic service is Judge Stallo, the Amer
lean minister to Italy. 1t was only the other
day that he left dinner party because the
Popes chamberlain was among the guests.
He is now credited with saying in a speech
before German club at Rome that the more
he saw of German civilization the more he
felt that Americans were barbarians in COM
parison. 1t was doubtless not difficult for
the Judge to convince the Germans.

Sumner is a part of the NEW education"
which will work very well in this case but
which cannot be applied to advantage in
other departments. 1t has long been felt
that it was a mistake to give the young idea
at Yale but one direction in which to expand
on the important tariff question. Professor
Thompson's advent obyiates the difficulty
and puts certain part of political economy

II is impossible not to feel good deal of
sympathy for the thousands and tens of
thousands Of unemployed men who rushed
through the streets of London yesterday,
quitting houses and shops to enforce upon
their attention Of the wealthy the sad and
deplorable fact that thousands of men willing
to work wereE on the verge of starvation.
Of course the proceeding was unlawful and
reprehensible and demanded the sternest re-
preston. And yet it is the only effective
method which the British workingmen have
of enforcing their righteous demands against
the rich, frequently made such and kept
such by unequal laws and unmerited privi-
leges. To suffer in silence is to suffer in
definitely. Agitation is their only resource,
and If they sometimes overstep the bounds
of law and indulge in such wild freaks of
turbulence as yesterdays they ought not to
be judged harshly. They are fighting for
existence, and the character of the contest
extenuates the use of weapons which other
wise would be indefensible.

1t appears that the first report that the
Knights of Labor were the movers in the
recent outrages on the Chinese at Seattle
was unfounded. Doubtless there were
Knights of Labor in the mob, but as an or
ganization they had nothing to do with it.
The riot was simply violent manifestation
of the feeling that is general among all
classes on the Pacific coast that the Chinese
should go and was sympathized with
by the majority of the people Of
Seattle. Congress has recognized this
sentiment by passing law excluding
the Chinese but it seems to be full of holes
that render it to large degree useless. If
the policy of the government is to keep out
this race the law should be made strong
enough to accomplish it. Failure to provide
sufficient legal methods operates as an invi-
tation to supplement them with illegal ones,
and Inevitably tends to such outrages as
those at Seattle and Tacoma.

The Democratic papers are indulging in a
good deal of nonsensical talk about the
recent visit of the Hon. j. IL. Manley to
Washington. One of their stories is that
Mr.. Manley went on to notify the Senate
that Mr.. Blaine did not think 1t profitable
for the Senate to carry on the contest with
the President about removals from Office any
longer. Senator Frye says that not word
was said ON the subject by Mr.. Manley, but
that will not prevent the repetition of the
silly tale.

Reducsionin Telegraph, Rates.

Tie following radical reductions made in telegraph rates by the Vest ern Union Telegraph Company, is of general interest; Hereafter no tariff between Western Union offices in Arizona will exceed 50 cents for day messages of ten words, or 30 cents for night messages. The rate to all Western Union offices in Colorado is now 75 cents day and 50 cents night. Corresponding rates have been made in all parts of the country, and it is significant that these reductions are generally in sections where the West ern Union has no opposition. New offices have been lately opened at Bellemont, Chino, Fairview and Yrc- ca. in this Territory. Atlantic cable rates have also been reduced.

 The latest news received here of the whereabouts of the hostile Indians is contained in the Tucson Citizen of the list. It says;
 Mr. E. R. Vail, of the Empire ranch, is in the city, having just returned from Egua Caliente, in the Santa Ritas, opposite Canoa. He accompa, nied Lawton's command on the chase after the hostiles until bis horse got away ,from him, and for two days marched on foot, finally returning with Frank Proctor. He says the hostiles took three horses from the Empire ranch, four from Macy, two from Denman & .Seholefield and two from w. B. McCleary. They were within, one hundred feet of the Dave Harshaw house, watching it from the rocks, but for some reason they did not attack it. They went over the mountains to Frank Proctor's place .t the mouth of Sawmill canyon; where they broke things up pretty badly, finding no one at home, the men all being in the mountains. The hostiles then went np sawmill can yon, towards Grcaterville, but changed their course, after killing a COW, and returned to the west side again, near the stone cabin, going towards Tubac. Mir. R. V. Bloxton, who got ill from Davidson's canyon in the Santa Ritas yesterday, says that on reaching liar shaw's Springs oH Sunday afternoon he found guard watching, fer 1ndi ans. They said they had seen only signs Of hos.iles, and they had come down the canyon with their teams only couple of hours before. MT. BloxtOn had seen, near the "Chim- ncys, very plainly the tlaeks CI SIX Indians who had crossed the road some time after the team which pre- ceded lnm had gone down. This was evidence that or Sunday oycng hes tiles were still in that vicinity. It has been reported and it is gen orally believed to be true, that large body of Apaehes crossed the railroad between this city and V-ilmot station, a few mics to the southeast. The band is said to have contained about one hundred Indians and they wore going eastward towards Rincon pass. This report was general upon the streets OH Monday, but no one could be found who had seen them.

Dick Gird, who was formerly super intendent of the T. NJ. & NJ.

It says: "Richard Gird, who owns 10000 acres of choice land below Pomona, says he might be a rip"rianist if he wanted to, as the water which irrigates Pomona and Ontario flows for eight miles through his Chino rarch, but he says he would sooner cut off h;s right hand than do it, and thinks it short-sighted policy iii any one 10 undertake to ruin the country around them for the sake of getting water which they don't need, and tins destroying the very markets they need for their own products"

There arrived in this city last even ing, from Tucson, under engagement to the Elite theatre, where he will ap- pear tomorrow night, an Italian named Maxine Dantes, who, if he can perform one-half of the pervel- ous feats of strength credited to him, will no doubt create q nine days wonder The Tucson Citizen gives the following account of his appear ance in that city:
 [ 'Out from the depths of obscurity there has come forth man, now in this city, who is probably de- tined to become a modern Hercules. His size and appearance give no idea of the iron muscles with which he is gifted, as he is but an ordinary looking per son, of medium size, and weighs only 160 pounds. His name is Maxine DaItes, q native of Chihuahua, Mexi CO. IAC SdIIie OO uCSO1 several months ago, since which time he has been engaged in such labor as he could turn his hand to that would yield him livelihood. He has never had days training in his life, yet, when Bis wonderful strength became known only last week. he became the center of attraction at the athletic en- tertainment on Friday night, at the Park Theatre.
 "Onc of the feats he performs is that of breaking in two fve-inch square piece of wood, about three feet long, laid across two chairs, with his naked fist. He will advance rapidly to the suspended wood, with uplifted hand, and bring down his fist like Il cannon ball upon it, breaking the wood instantly.
 "He then placed six heavy men, aggregating about 1,200 pounds, on q table, and he raised them up easily from the floor with his shoulders. He says he can lift nearly 1900 pound in this way
 Another feat was that of bending five-eighss rod of iron by stroke over the extended bare forearm, which seemed to have been very easily ac- complished and caused only small temporary swelling.
 There are other simple but equally startling feats of strength and muscu- lar hardness that he can accomplish with equal facility, but these were the only ones exhibited on Friday night,
 "As before mentioned, this remark able man has had no training tending to develop his strength or to give him advantageous points in performing his wonders. He is modest and quiet person of simple habits, almost unconscious of the great attraction he would make to some large circus or athletic performances, and some en- terprising manager will yet recognize in him valuable addition to his ex- hibition of wonders"
