Among the reports is one that IN the
next executive session Of the Senate a
motion will be made 20 reconsider tee
vote by which the nomination OF x. ;.
Dement, was confirmed as surveyor Gen
eral OF Utah. IL seems that there have
been many expressions OF disapproval OF
this nomination among Democrats, and
some OF those who voted TO confirm it are
now quoted as regretupg their action.
Mr.. Dement, owes his confirmation al
most wholly to Gen. Logan. 1t seems that
he helped Gen. Logan in his struggle for
reelection last winter, and required him
to pay this political debt. Gen. Logan
is man who helps those who help him,
and when Mr.. Dement'S nomination came
before the Senate, with an unfavoraole re-
port from the Committee on Public Lands
the sort OF a report, by the way, that is
considered sufficient to defeat the con-
hrmstion OF nomination-Gen Logan
TOOK of his coat, as it were, and did the
best work he could for his young friend.
tie saved him, but by only two votes, the
vote standing twenty-five for and twenty
three against confirmation. Seven Re-
publlcans responded to Gen. Logan's per-
sonal appeals for his friend, notwith-
standing the pending Edmunds resolu-
tions against confirming any nominations
IN eases where removals have been made.
1t would be interesting TO know the
character OF the political debt that Gen.
Logan owed Mr.. Dement,. How could
Mr.. Dement,, Democrat, have helped
Gen. Logan to secure a reelection TO the
Senate without having been untrue to his
own party friendsi The question was not
whether Gen. Logan or some other Repub-
lican should be elected. The struggle was
between Gen. Logan and Mr.. Morri-
son, the eminent tariff reiormer
and Chairman of the Ways and Means
Committee. Clearly the record of Mr..
Dement, was the kind OF one that Demo-
Gratis ought to have scanned pretty closely
before assisting to put him into place of
responsibility and trust. The fact that
Gen. Logan was so earnest In his behalf
ought to have excited suspicion that
he was hardly the kind of a man to
whom Democrats ought to be swift to
lend helping hand.
But there was very serious charge
against Mr.. Dement,, which was investi-
gated by the Senate Committee on Public
Lands. IL was that he had made SANDER
Gus statements respecting certain high
officials in the General Land Office. The
charge was based on interviews pub
lished in several Of the leading papers.
When Mr.. Dement, saw that these inter-
views were likely to get him into trouble
he denied them. Senator Walthall, of
Mississippi, however, said that the charge
had been substantiated by four reputable
Witnesses, and Senator Blair, OF New
Hampshire, said that Mr.. Dement, was a
crank and unfit to occupy any position.
Under the circumstances IT is not sur
prising that the Senate is thinking about
undoing it's work so far as Mr.. Dement, is
concerned.

Mr.. ParneIps Success.

The success of Mr.. Parnen is the occa-
sion of constant wonder and surprise.
His power is greater than that exercised
by any other man who ever attempted to
secure justice from England for Ireland.
The principal reason that his success ex-
cites surprise is that he does not appear
to possess extraordinary ability of any
kind. BE is not great orator nor great
organizer. His leading characteristic is
his will power. When he determines to
do thing he generally accomplishes it.
The greater the obstacles the greater Gp-
pears to be his determination TO overcome
them. Although a Protestant, he is be-
lieved in and followed by the Catholics.
He is a landlord and an aristocrat, and
yet he has the confidence OF the tenant
class and the common people. That he has
tact and shrewdness there can be no
doubt, and that he is sincere IN the work
he has undertaken no one will deny. He
has been called the uncrowned king Of
Ireland, and the title is IN some respects a
fitting one, for he is certainly enthroned
in the hearts OF the Irish people.
1t is often mentioned as a remarkable
fact that his first speech was a failure.
He was so embarrassed that he could not
utter a word. His lips moved, but they
gave forth no sound. He will probably
never forget the time and place of that
first effort. The time was about 1874, and
the place was a great meeting in Ireland.
The audience was sympathetic, and tried
to encourage him by frequent applause.
Sneh a failure would have dishea rtened
most men. 1t had the opposite effect on
Mr.. Parnell. 1t stimulated him to re-
newed effort. In the course Of time he
became fair off-hand speaker, buthe sell
dom rises 10 genuine eloquence.
He first drew attention to himself In
Parliament by what subsequently became
famous as the policy Of obstruction. He
took the position that If Parliament would
do nothing for the relief of Ireland, it
shouldn't do anything at all, and having
made himself thoroughly acquainted
with the rules he was frequently able 10
seriously interfere with, and TO sometimes
block, legislation. AS the number of his
followers in Parliament increased, his
power became more marked, until finally
he was able TO oVerturn Mr.. Gladstone's
government.
His six months in prison for Ireland's
cause did great deal towards strength
ening him with the Irish people. They
said in effect "The man who Is willing to
suffer for us will be true to us. We will
trust him." and they do trust him. he
Yields remarkable influence-an influence
that is not confined to Ireland and Parlia-
ment. 1t is felt in every part Of the world
where there are Irishmen. he has sue
ceeded in making the hearts Of Irlshmen,
the world over, beat in unison in the cause
of Ireland The struggle, therefore, for
justice TO Ireland Is not confined 10 the
few millions OF freshmen in Ireland. IL
embraces the 100000 OF Irishmen who
are scattered in every civilized country.

March.

From the Brooklvn Na1dsine.
Bend, trees. bend each leafless bough:
Creak and moan, and hum and blow,
It's giant grasps thee now.
And his roaring voice we know;
Wildly lashes he the sea,
Wildly tOsses things about,
MOrtals from his fury fee,
Not flower bud dare peep out,
When they hear March roar and shout.
Yet at heart he is not bad,
Rough although his ways may be;
For he brings message glad,
To the bud, the flower, the bee:
wake" he cries in accents loud;
"Arbutus and ViOlets small
Don your spring robes! Flower crowd,
April follows me, 90 all
Listen for her joyous call."
