THE burning question in administration cir.

WITH tariff tinkering ended, the labor troubles

change was not needed 1t is now, however.

THERE is no especially significant feature
about this Oregon election. The Republican
Congressman is emphaticallyire elected; he is be-
lieyed to be reliable as protectionist and the
Oregonians want no fooling with the tariff New
Orleans Picayune.
Mr. MORRISON and his free-trade Democrats
threaten to read Mr.. Randall and the projections
list Democrats out of the party. This would be
dreadful for the Randallites if they ever found
it out, but it would not help Mr.. Morrisons bill
to any great extent-Phiadelphia Inquirer
TRADES UNIONS are an excellent thing They
have accomplished worthy results, and have Q
great future before them But they must face
the fact that their claims and wishes are NOT

IT is probable that Mr.. Cleveland, in the haps
piness of honeymoon upon whose delights
everybody congratulates him, does not realize
that he has made himself and his party ridicu@
lous by his facing both-ways attitude on the
tariff. Unfortunately for himself, however. he
is the only person of intelligence who does not
realize it.-Philadephia Press.

Mr.. Cleveland stands frm,' but this is not
necessarily the case. There is no reason in
the world why a man should not agree to
support any number of regulations and re-
form measures, when he has the privilege of
making and modifying the rules to suit his
own peculiar ideas. Mr.. Cleveland can we'll
afford to be as firm as rock on this point,
and is establishing reputation as a reformer
which cannot fail to please every member of
his marty

The dramatic attempt of the attorney of
Parsons, the Anarchist, who escaped arrest at
the time his fellow conspirators were appre-
hended, to introduce him into court in some
manner that might have the appearance of be-
ing courageous deed, should not defer nor
defeat the prompt administration of justice
He is o scoundrel from his shoes up, and should
be dealt with accordingly The cases of these
assassins should be pushed with the utmost
expedition, and they should be hustled to the
gallows or the penitentiary, the former to be
preferred as soon as the forms Of the law will
admit. There is not an heroic trait in the
whole dastardly business, from beginning to
end, and no nonsense should be tolerated
Popular sentiment can compel justice, and
that without failure. To allow them to
escape or to be let off without the fullest de-
gree of punishment would be crime against
the people and an offense against the best in
terests of society all over the country.

4 MONUMENT TO WITHIN HALE.

A movement is now i'll progress In Brooklyn
to rcpair the neglect from which one OF the most
heroic figures of the Revolution has suffered.
While there is n mausoleum erected in West
Minister Abbey in honor of Major Andre, ana
while an attempt. not perhaps altogether
indicious, has been made on American sol to
commemorate the fate of the British spy, there
has not been any adequate memorial to Captain
Nathan Hale. This gallant officer volunteered
in response to WashingtOn's earnest INVITATION
after the disastrous battle of Long Island to
visit the British lines and to obtain information
respecting the enemys designs and positions.
Disclaiming any expectation of promotion or
pecuniary reward. and acting solely for the
public good, he entered upon the fatal expedi-
ton which brought him to an i'm Dminons death.
Nathan !lale's virtues had the strong fibre OF
New England manhood and his character was
purcr and noblcr than the British spyS; yet
with the exception of the modest stone in Gov
entry, Conn, where he was born, and stirring
poem by Mr.. Finch, there is naught To snow
that his patriotic deed and melancholy end ale
remembered by Americans.
The Franklin Literary Association, one OF
rhe most successful debating societies in Brook
lyn. has taken practical measures for keeping
alive the memory of this noble soldier. The
subject was recently presented to the society in
an admirable paper prepared by Charles ID.
Baker and pub ishcd in the current number of
The Monthly AdrGnce. A committee was at
once appointed for securing subscriptions for
monument to be erected probably in Prospect
Park We are glad To know that sufficient
encoura agcmcnt has already been received to
give assurance of the success of the movement.
Every American who has seen in Westminster
Abbey the Ostcntatious mausoleum bearing
Andres name will be rejoiccd to learn that
something is to be done on this side to attest the
Gratitude of Nathan IIale's country for his
brave deed and heroic sacrifice.
New-York tribune., 1886-05-25

sentiment of the country under the KepuDiIcah
banners 1t is plain that if the conclusions OF
the organizers of the new movement are well
founded. the success of such departure would
be attended by more considerable results than
anv separate temperance or prohibition move
mont has ever achieved. For while the COM
initial of the party to general ant-saloon
policy would at once put an end to all alliance
with that element, ii would at the same nme
give an unexamped stimulus to restriction
throughout the country, and by moderatlng
the zeal of the extremists render the attain
ment of practical results more pro bable.
In effect the new movement may be regarded
as proposal to give the temperance scntl-
ment of the country the largest opportunities
il has vet had 1t is also a plain rccogni-
ton of the fact that the Republican party
Us such can no longer afford to
leave out of account It's own temperance e'e-
ment. which is, in fact, that of the Nation. The
leaders and organs of Prohibition, of course,
violently oppose aud profess to distrust the
movement, seeing that If ii succeeds it will de-
prive them Of their present cOnsplcuousncss.
But there is clearly no su1tlety i'll the anti
saloon proposition. What it means, and all 1t
means, is most candidly set forth by Mr..
Griffin 1t is an cndeavor to make the Repub-
hcan party the party of Temperance, OF good
morals, of clean politics, of the higher clvilza-
ton in q larger and truer sense than
it has yet been. 1t is for the Pro-
hibtionists largely TO determine whether
tie movement shall succeed at present, but II
Republicans approve of it there is nothing to
prevent them from undertaking the enterprise
proposed to them hereafter, and carrying it
out. 1t requires concessions on both sides. Ii
is obviously a middle course. and perhaps the
safer for beng so. 1t deals with a question
the imp icatons of which moreover are so
grave and pressing that the Republican party
cannot much longer avoid dealing with II
frankly and resOlutely.

FIGHTING ~ THESSiLY.

The continuance of hOstltics on the Greek
frontier is ominOus notwithstanding the efforts
made on both sides to effect an armistce. The
new Ministry headed by Trcoups is reputed
to be anxious to submit to the Powers and to
adopt measures for an immediate disarma nent.
Still the war feeling is strong in Athens, and if
the Chamber were convinced that ii could
depend upon foreign support it would I'M
doubtedly sanction an aggressive policy. The
amy has been III the field for many months
and the national debt has been increased a.
the outcome of DclyanniS's administration.
The majority of the Chamber will naturally be
reluctant TO vote appropriations and to raise
the tax rate when nothing has been gained foI
the country and its honor has been compro-
missed. If there be any prospect of Russian
support and break in the European concert,
even the peace Ministry formed by Tricoupls
may be capable of making secret arrangements
for IN outbreak Of hostilitcs.
SO little is known respecting the crcumstan-
res under which the outposts of the two armies
have come into conflict that it is impossible to
decide whether the outbreak of hostilities has
been accidental or deliberately planned. The
fact that fighting has been renewed AT various
points fOI a distance OF NItccn mites ahu thtt
there has been an unaccountable delay III
arranging truce is not reassurlng. The most
dsquictng circumstance is the continuance of
the Russian Minister in Athens. This bctokens
a lack of sympathy with the policy of the Euro
pean Governments and possibly renders iutelli-
gnlc the recent diSquicting utterances of the
C1ar. The probabilities, however, ctiil point
strongly toward pacific sOluion of the Greek
question and speedy cessation of the fighting
in Thessaly.
