A FATAL WEAKNESS.
The fatal weakness in the will is in
the thirty-fifth clause. Mr.. Tilden
there requests his executors to use his
money "to establish q free library and
to promote such scientific and educa-
tional objects as they may particularly
specify" lie should have specified
the objects and the sums of money to
be devoted to them himself.
Again Mr.. Tilden donates money to
an institution provided sit shall be In.
corporated in form aud manner salts
factory to my executors" 1t looks as
though any smart lawyer might get
good footing for contest on this clause
and make things right lively for the ex-
ecutors.
Further on Mr.. Tilden relegates to
his executors the authority to "or-
ganize the said corporation, designate
the first trustees thereof, and to convey
to or apply to the use Of the same the
rest, residue, and remainder of all my
real and personal estate not specifically
disposed Of by this instrument, or as
much thereof as they may deem ex-
pedient." Under the ruling Of the
Court Of Appeals this delegated power
will not stand for an instant. So say
eminent lawyers.
Last Of ell, Mr.. Tilden says; "If for
any cause or reason my said executors
shall deem it expedient to convey such
rest, residue, AID remainder, or any
part thereof, or to apply the same or
any part thereof to the said institution,
l authorize my executors to apply the
rest, residue, and remainder OF my pro-
perty, real and personal, to such charita-
BILE, educational, and scientific purposes
as in the judgment OF my said execu-
tors will render the rest, residue, and
remainder of my property most widely
and substantially beneficial to the To-
terests Of mankind" The trouble is
that be must himself decide what is
"rnost widely and substantially bene-
fcial," and specify the sums set aside
for it. lie cannot authorize his execu-
tors TO choose for lin.
Thus the a, 100000 left for charitable
purposes may become prey to the law
) ers. who can otter what they please
10 The natural beiis. Mr.. Tildsn evidently
made bic sill unmiadfal Of the words !

backs is unfair. They declare that
self with the petty details of politics,
but that he has been reasonably con-
siderate of the position, the power,
and, relatively speaking, of the rights
of politicians of large degree, whose
primary in the leadership of the party
is attested by the results in contests of
large proportions. and by the consent
of large communities.
There is much to justify this con-
clusion. He who talks with men on
the street, at their places of business,
or on the avenues of travel, finds that
the President is highly respected, that
his honesty is admitted, that his firm
ness is appreciated, and that his
homely, direct, personal way of doing
things contrary to precedent and out
of routine, has commended him to the
people, as truly as it may have lost
him the regard of that limited and
superstitious class, the politicians by
profession.
The President certainly has a coign
of vantage in the Presidency itself
which is not to be lost sight of. His
Administration can not be regarded. as
failure without confession of judg-
ment against the party itself. The in
clination of Democrats to succeed on
their own behalf must be made
SYNONYMOUS with the effort to repre-
sent that the administration of their
own election has been successful also.
This does not mean that the party is
bound to the denomination of Mir.
Cleveland, or that Mr. Cleveland is
bound to submit to a denomination and
to place his leisure and a large portion
of his future at the further disposition
of the people, unless he shall so desire.
But it does mean that the party is in
good shape and that it is as able to
make the present Democratic Admins
tration an instrument in the perpetual
ton of Democratic control of the offices
as it was to make the Jackson Admin
istration a factor in the election of the
Van Buren, Administration and the
Pierce Administration factor in tha
election of the Buchanan Administra-
ton.
There is no disposition among Demo
cratic statesmen and politicians to an
tagonize the President LOW. or in 1886
to commit themselves to an unalter-
able programme for 1888. But there
is a realization of the collective strength
of the Democratic party, and there is,
so to speak, reconsideration of the
lessons of the late election, which
strengthen and encourage the heart OF
the party, and which corresponding
depress the expectation and hope of its
adversaries. -GeOrge Hope, IN Brook.

A Democratic Senate.

Every day brings fresh evidence that
the elections resulted in grand Dem
ocratic triumph. In addition to carry
ing Minnesota, California and Colo
RADIO, and reducing the Republican
majorities in Iowa and Ohio, the party
makes such gains in State Legislatures
as will guarantee the complete obliter-
alton of the Republican majority in the
United States Senate.
In the present Senate the Republic
ans have a majority of eight. 1t was
expected that there would be slight
reduction in this majority, but the
most hopeful didn't anticipate that it
would be wiped out in a single contest.
The general belief was that by 1889
sufficient changes might be made to
change the complexion Of the body,
but the late victory has made it posi-
BILE by the fourth of March next.
This is the most important result of
the elections. To have the support of
the Senate to the Democratic Admins
tration is Strengthening the arm of the
party more directly and effectively
than any other agency could ac-
complish. With such result the Dem
Gratis have no reason to complain of
the late MISUNDERSTANDING Patriot.
