minutes. 1t was natural should call
upon my old friends. After l had in

custom, | think, for the last twenty
years, in the city of Madison, to close
the campaign with political meeting

the Presidents order issued to Federal
oftice-holders regarding participation

the evils which had grown up during the
lifetime of the Republican party when

tiedly declared my cordial approval of
the Presidents course and policy in re-
spect to the official dictation and in

ceived an oatburst of applause indica-
tive of the most hearty approval of
the wise and judicious policy of the
President.
Il was among my friends, comrades
and neighbcrrs, and looked upon it as
duty to address them when they had
been kind enough to extend to me an
invitation. There is wide difference
between addressing an audience at
home in Single speech and abandon
ing the duties of an office for long
period of campaigning; there must be
a distinction allowed between officers
charged with different duties in con-
nection with the service of the Gov
eminent. There was nothing in the
business requiring my attention but the
false reports transmitted for partisan
ends"

CAN HE REACH THEM7

Some Remarks Regarding the Plumed
Knight from Maine and the Indepen-
dent Voters Who Do Not Believe in
Him.
1t was recently announced through
the New York papers that Mr.. Blaine
was in the city to effect q reconcilia-
ton between himself and the Mug
| wump Times, the naughty Conkling
and ex-President Arthur. That the
reconciliation failed may be inferred
from the prompt denial by the ubq III
tous intimate friend on Sunday that
it was contemplated. But the
observant public is used to de-
mails of the reported purposes of
the Maine aspirant to the Presi-
dency. These reports are sent out like
so many antenna to feel the public.
That Mr.. Blaine and his little privy coun-
Gil have considered the feasibility of re-
covering the anti-Blaine Republicans of
1884 does not admit of question. In
reply to the question, will Mr.. Blaine
be candidate in 1898? Congressman
William Walter Phelps, who is one of
Mr.. Blaine's closest confidants, just be-
fore the latter started on his tour
through the States, said: 81 don't
know, and l don't suppose he does.
It's two years vet. you see. You may
be sure he won't be unless the minor
ity of the party-those who opposed
his nomination last time-ask for it in
1888. They will have to bring him into
the field" This utterance indicated
which way Mr. Blaine was looking for
a preteXt to come before the Republic
an National convention in 1888. If he
could show that the disatfected ele-
ments of 1a84-the Mugwumps, the
stalwarts and The Arthurites -were
greedily clamoring for him, his old
s'first, last and all the time' partisans
would have an excuse to nominate him
with a whoop.
Unfortunately for Mr.. Blaine, the
Mugwump element is an intangible
thing. 1t has no representative leader
or organization with whom he can
negotiate. 1t is constituted of indie
pendent voters who seeded from the
Republican party in 1884 because
they individually did not believe Mr..
Blaine was a fit man to be President of
the United States. They thought that
his nomination marked distinct de-
cadence in the moral tone and purpose
of the Republican party. They voted
for Cleveland to rebuke what they
considered a downward step in the
conduct of political affairs. They
acted from principle, and the only way
the Republican party can recover
them is by recognizing their con-
scientious objection to Mr.. Blaine.
To talk of their reconciliation to him
is silly. 1t is possible for him to estab-
lish friendly relations with Roscoe
Conkling and ex-President Arthur, al
though there are many lions in the
path. But Mr. Blaine can never be
any more acceptable to the Mug
wumps than he was in 1851 Chicago

An Editors Brilliant Fancy.

Field Marshal Murat Halstead, editor
of the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette,
has very fertile imagination. Some
of the most startling works of fiction
of the wild West before the war were
from his pen. Latterly he has turned
the fruits of his Imagination into the
line of politics. and the last flight of
his fancy appears in his declaration
that the result of the late election pres
ages the defeat of the Democratic
party in 1888.
This is the latest and one of the Wild
est of his imaginings. The rule hav-
ing been, with one or two exceptions,
under remarkable circumstances, that
the mid-term elections have resulted in
a House OF Representatives politically
opposed to the President, we have in
these recent elections an exception to
the rule, under circumstances not at
, all remarkable. showing that contrary

1t may not have been necessary for
Mr.. Blaine to have made a trumphal
march through Pennsylvania in the in
terest of the coal com binations, which
a Democratic Governor had greatly in
cencensed, but the mblnations re-
ferred to were very much afraid that
it was. The Democratic Governor who
will now step down and out put the
issue against the com binations so
forcibly and so plainly that it was
feared the people of the State could not
fail to see it, and seeing it could not
fail to lndorse the issue as a Democrat
ic movement that promised them re-
lief. So Blaine, with his magnetism,
was called to aid and assist the COM
binations in the choice of a political
Governor who will permit the move
ment inaugurated by Democratic
Governor to go by the board-go the
way that all reforms go which are
manipulated by the Republicans.
The fight of the coal mbinations in
Pennsylvania was not really local
one. 1t was one of National import
ance and National interest. 1t will be
hard to find a Republican newspaper,
or member of the Republican party,
outside of the State of Pennsylvania
that will indorse the "coal com bina-
ton" that a Democratic Governor is
fighting, and it will be equally hard to
find one that did not indorse the action of
the combination in fighting the Demo-
cratic ticket in that State. Pennsylva-
MIA Democrats were defeated while
fighting in a good cause-a cause that
the Republican party can not take issue
with. If the incense of the combina-
combinations which have been
decried by men and newspapers of all
faith and political complexion, East
and West-has been so great that a
Democratic Governor of Pennsylvania
must give way to a Republican, we fail
to see wherein James G. Blaine and his
followers can take pride in the forty
thousand majority the combinations
have secured against the Democrats
And yet the combinations that spent
thousands of dollars to beat the Demo-
cratic ticket are quite willing to accord
the honor of the victory to Blaine and
his followers. And Blaine and his fol
lowers are quite willing to accept the
honor thus conferred-now that the
battle has been fought and won.-Des

But you see it isn't a real fire. but

there seems to be no reason why set

coasts of India, Africa and Australia.
The natives of Ceylon call him Gini-

him, for they are very much afraid OF

Perhaps the most noticeable thing
about the elections is the fact that
Washington has increased its majority
for Voorhees,, Democrat, u son of Sem

taken the advice which was freely of

Democrats a majority once and
see how quickly it would be admitted
to the Union, but for some reason there
has been great falling off in the Re-

Washington appear to be growing in

eliminate from their heads the idea
that that Territory is entitled to come

The Country Democratic.

On the morning after the late cleo.

peated in glaring headlines over the
election news, the following legend:
The Next President Will Be the Nom

vention." Well, let us see- In 1884
the Republicans had 1S9 Electoral
votes, and the Democrats had 212
This year the Republicans have carried

ures of their respective Electoral votes
are attached: Connecticut, g.; Illinois,

This seems to show Democratic

to be added Indiana, which slipped
away from us by mere scratch. That
would make our electoral majority 80,

PROGRESS IN JAPAN.

Important Educational Reforms Insti-
tuted by the Mileado's Government.
A Japanese citizen, educated in Amer
lea, man of great intelligence and
worth, and nova professor in the Uni
versity of Toxic, gives avery interest
ing account of the social changes that
have occurred in Japan, in the last
twenty years. These changes began
with the revolution which swept away
feudalism. and were extraordinarily
rapid and indiscriminate at first, the
people unfortunately imbibing an inn
preston, that Western civilization was
so perfect that it should supersede their
own with all possible rapidity. This
error led to reaction. as, might have
been expected, and the revolution met
with a sudden check; Japanese customs,
Japanese education and Japanese NOR
atty and religion. were revived, and
European and, American civilization
was at a. discount But in the last two
years another change has occurred, the
people having had time to correct their
Judgment by reflection and experience.
They no longer adopt foreign ways in
discrimately, but take them with such
notifications as their own peculiar cir1
cumstances require, adhering at the
same time to such features of
their own civilization as time
and experience. have shown
to be wise. "Buddhisn is still the pre-
dominating faith, but CnristianitNs is
rapidly establishing itself among the
more intellectual classes, and it is only
a matter of;t;me when the Christians re-
ligion will be accepted throughoat the
country. In all the large cities public
schools are maintained, and. it is oom-
pulsory that after attaining certain
age children shall be sent to school In
Eokio there are two large law1schools,
one of which IS conducted in the French
and the other in the English language.
Added to these is an engineering col
lege, with over twenty thousand vol
umes, and its extensive laDoratories,
which have been recently merged with
the Imperial College
Perhaps the most important of the
educational reforms proposed and un-.
der way Is that which seeks to intro.
