THE MEANING OF

Certainly only very Insignificant part of
the men who voted for Henry George are an
archists or socialists. But an insignificant
part of them, too, are idle and vicious. Indeed
the returns show that that class chung TO the
Democratic ticket The mass of his support
ors were respectable workingmen, the mos
OF them it may be not men of much learn
ing, yet well meaning and with no DISPOSE
tlon to plunge the city into anarchy or to re-
move the safeguards of law. Why did thew
sunder their party ties, or their party tie. for
the great majority of them were Demoerats2
Comparatively few of them knew much
abeut Mr.. Georges land theories, and the
few that did knew perfectly well that as
mayor OF New York no power would reside
In him to put them into practice. 1t could
not, therefore, have been from any desire
TO endorse his notions in regard to the own
ership OF land that they supported him
Neither could it have been on account of any
belief that Mr.. George could do anything
as mayor that would be beneficial to
them especially. The great mass of them are
1ully aware OF the fact that a mayor of New
YORK is so hedged in by the law that there is
very little scope for voluntary action on his
part lie must do as the law tells him to.
The motive which operated on the minds of
the great mass Of the 81, 900 persons who vot-
ed Tor Mr.. George was not, therefore, the
expectation of any direct benefit from his
election.
Inc truth undoubtedly is that the George
movement was intended largely, if not who'll
", As demonstration of might. 1t was de-
signed as hint of the political power that
the working men Of the country can WELD
When welded together into solid mass. To
accomplish the end aimed at it was not
essential that Mr.. George be elected mayor.
IL was only necessary that vote be polled
large enough to attract the attention of the
country Surely the vote was sufficient to
40 mat indeed it has not only attracted
the attention Of this country but of the old
world as well. Across the water it is inter-
preted as meaning that socialism has gained
dangerous foothold in this country. We
believe that this is n its true significance.

Blue Jackets of 81. A History of the
Navy in the War of Secession. BY Willis j.
Abbot. OF the immense body of literature
dealing with the War, the greater part is
given to the great armies of the North and
South. The details of the great land battles
are familiar to many, while only vague ideas
exist Of the service done by the 'blue Jack
cts" Of the North, and the daring deeds
OF the navies on both sides.
At the beginning of the War the United
States government had but sixty-nine YES
sells Of war at its disposal, twenty-seven of
which were laid up for repairs, while of the
remainder twenty-six were absent on mis-
sions to distant quarters of the globe. Many
OF the vessels at home were old-fashioned
sailing frigates, almost useless since steam
had become the only means of propelling
vessels of war. In officers and men the navy
was almost as deficient as in vessels. Such
was the condition of the Navy when Lincoln
vas made President. Four years later the
Navy of the United States consisted of
81 vessels. No nation of the world had
such naval power. The history of the
world contains no more wonderful story of
energy and invention. This interesting vol
ume is finely and fully illustrated. New

The Democrats, alarmed at the propor-
lions which the George movement assumed
In New York, and clearly seeing that unless
II Is broken up it will eventually compel
euem to let go their grip on that city and
State, have begun to cultivate the idea
that that movement was a movement for
Mr.. Blaine in disguise, that it was either
planned by his friends or secretly encouraged
by them. OF course their purpose is to
frlghten the Democrats away from it by
showing that it is at the bottom boom
Tor Blaine. The big Democratic and Mug
wump organs have set the ball rolling, and
All the little organs will now take up and
echo the cry. The funniest part of it all is
that while the Mugwumps and Democrats
are ransacking their brains for WAYS and
means to down Mr.. Blaine, they are all pro-
testing with one accord that he was forever
buried in 1884.

The Portland daily press., 1886-11-06

The New York Sun has discovered that if
the election Of President in 1883 should
be thrown into the House of Representatives
the Democrats could not elect their man.
They have elected a majority in the delega
lions from only sixteen States. In the cleo
ton OF a President by the House the Consti-
tuition provides that each State shall cast a
single vote for the candidate who shall be
the choice Of majority of the Representa-
tlves from that State. Twenty States, a ma
lorlty oil the thirty-eight, are required TO
elect President. A third party movement
IN 1888 might defeat the Democratic party
The Republicans don't intend that the Dem
ocrats shall elect their man anyway in 1883
but this bit of information may be of inter-
est to the Prohibitionists, who time their
runs to smash the Republicans. A run by
them In 1883 might smash the Democrats.

present form, the editor of the magazine
has complied with very general desire ex
pressed by the many interested in their first

ume is really a book of cooking receipts and

thorough preparation, which made it, in
