gets a rest by occasional visits to st. Charles
college, 16 miles from the city, where he re-
ceiyed his early education, The Sulpitian
Fathers control both these institution and
are very proud of the visits of the prince of
the church, whom they once had under their
many ways. They are his chief advisers he
gives them the places of honor at all cere-
monies at the cathedral, and, it is said. he
will exert all his influence to place them in
charge of the proposed Catholic university.
Last summer he departed so far from his
custom OF summering at st. Charles as to go
for week or two to Cape May, be dld not
go to the seashore for enjoyment, however,
as he is exceedingly ayerse to going among
crowds. The fact is his health has not been
all that could have been desired, ana ms
physicians predicted a breakdown uhoeI

Of late the cardinal has spent more time IN
his library than is his custom, ana tnere is
well grounded report among the clergy tnat
he is going to make second venture In tne
field of letters. 1t will be remembered that
his first work, ''The Faith Of our fathers,
had larger scale than any Catholic work
ever published in America. Its success could
not be said to be due to his position, for he
was at the time only bishop of Richmond.
The continued large sale of the work has, 1T
is said, induced the cardinal to prepare an,
other of similar character, but addressed
rather to the learned than to the humble
readers to whom "The Faith of our Fathers
appealed. As the cardinal is a master 81
vigorous English, very learned man and
| one of the acutest reaSoners In the cnurcn,
| there is little doubt that another work from
his pen will cause a sensation in church cir
| cles, especially since he has become the head
| of the Catholic hierarchy.

THE ARKANSAS ELECTION.

Interest in the recent State election in Ar
kansas has not ended with the declaration Of
the result. From time to time stories have
come from remote countries of armed inter-
ference with the election judges, even Of the
theft and destruction of the ballot boxes in
some precincts. In other places, where force
could not be employed, there are ugly stories
of fraudulent counting. The result as de-
clared at Little Rock, the capital of the
State, Is a case in point. At the Presidential
election of 1884, when impartial judges APP
pointed by the Federal court were at the
polling places and witnessed the count, 1,612
votes were cast for Blaine electors, and 1851
for Cleveland electors, Republican MAORI
ty of 261 in total vote of 1868. A COMPARE
son of this result with the vote this year Of
fers some interesting considerations. AS
the election this year was State election,
no Federal judge saw to it that the count was
fair; every election Judge was Democrat.
The returns of these judges show 2,571 votes
for the Democratic candidates and 1902 for
the Republican. That is, in two years the
Republicans lost $40 votes, a loss which
might be expected in an ''off' year; but the
Democrats gained 1,220 votes, and came
within 131 of doubling their vote of 1884.
The increase in the total vote of Little Rock
from 1884 to 1886 was 910 This, in city
where there has been no large increase Of
population, is most significant showing.
1t is the rule everywhere that Presidential
election calls out the largest vote; had the
counts been made correctly this year the
rule would not have had an apparent reyer-
sal in Little Rock.
1t is true that local disaffection in 1884
might possibly have keptmany Democrats at
home. But in the first place there is no evil
dence that such disaffection existed; and
secondly, the phenomenon observed in Little
Rock has been observed all over Arkansas.
In Maine this year, in spite of one of the
most active campaigns ever made, the total
vote fell short of the vote of 1884 by 2,45o
In Vermont there was similar falling off.
A smaller vote is always to be expected in
an "off' year. But in Arkansas this
year, the total vote is 1924 larger than
the total vote of the Presidential year of
1884, when Federal judges guarded the ballot
boxes. Neither was the canvass this year at
all active; nor has Arkansas increased in
incubation at any such rate. Even if the
stories of outrages and frauds had not been
told there would be but one conclusion from
these figures. The returns show that the Re-
nublican vote increased about B. GOO this year;
and that the Wheel, an agricultural party of
which much was expected, poled Is, 1863 votes
against 1,S47 two years ago. The Democratic

or Bffe gentlemen vino SPOKE at tne
meeting at Old City Hall Tuesday argued
that the money raised for the soldiers monu-
ment had better be diverted from that pur-
pose and used to assist needy soldiers. 1t is
hardly worth while to discuss that point. The
money has been contributed for a soldiers
monument, and melody has the right to di-
vert it to any other purpose, no matter how
praisew0rthy that purpose in itself may be.
If the money is not used for monument,
then it should be returned to the people who
subscribed it, The question, and the only
question now is, whether the Old City Hall
lot shall be given to the monument asSocia-
ton to put the monument on. There was a
public expression of opinion on the subject
last spring, and very large majority OF the
people were in favor of such gift. Some of
the speakers at Tuesdays meeting thought
that since then public opinion on the subject
had changed II it has there should be some
evidence of it, but none was youchsafed by
the gentlemen who thought such a change
had taken place. 1t was alleged also that
the newspapers had not given the rsmon-
~Strants equal opportunity with the petition
ers to present their case. That is mistake.
Certainly the PRESS and the other papers as
well, has presented to its readers great
mass of matter on both sides of the
question. Communications on both sides
have been refused sometimes because they
contained no new arguments, and were
simply iterations of things said over and over
again

PIcNIcS UNDER THE TREATY OF
1913

The harsh spirit of the enforcement OF
customs regulation in Canadian ports is man
ifested anew by certain performance of the
captain of the cruiser Terror, and by certain
comments which appear in one of the Hall
fax journals. SIT seems" says the writer,
"that the American fishermen have not yet
got rid of the fallacy that as sosn as they en-
ter their vessels at the customs in Canadian
port they are entitled to all the privileges OF
an ordinary trader while in that port. Inc
circumstances which called forth this COM
ment happened recently. At Cape Negro
few days ago, were anchored two Gloucester
fishermen. Their captains had entered them
at the custom house as required by law, and
then had permitted the men to go ashore
From one ' essel one man had gone to pic
mic while the captain and entire crew of the
other "were paying their court to the fair
denizens of the Cape at the same bucOlic
merrymaking." Into this peaceful port the va
lorous Quigley entered, and ordered the les
tive Yankees to sea at once. In reporting the
circumstances the captain of the Terror de-
clares that it is s'his aim to enforce the pro-
| visions of the treaty in their proper inter
| probation" And the treaty says nothing
about picnics or any such 'bucolic merry
making" But the enormous offense OF these
gallant Gloucester shippers is rather con-
doned by the Canadian press, which attrip-
utes this reckless action to "fallacy into
which the New Englanders have fallen,' IL
assuming that ''the privilege of shelter EN-
braces the right to remain in port SO long a
~ 40 q wcduurI HSHInB on the
grounds, whereas the treaty gives them the
mere right to take refuge in our harbors only
at such times as the weather is not fit to per-
NIT them to remain in safety at sea, irrespec-
tive of fishing opportunities altogether II
is pleasure, however, to notice that the
captains of all the cruisers do not interpret
the treaty so harshly as does Captain Quig
ley; and picnics and other such 'bucolit
merrymaking" will undoubtedly be partici-
pated in on fine days by the gallant ankee'
in spite of the treaty of 1918.

Parnell anticipates hard winter for the
Irish tenant and has telegraphed to America
that there is urgent need of assistance. Par
lament did absolutely nothing to avert the
threatened evictions consequent upon the
tenants inability to pay rent, and the pros
pect is that thousands of 1rishmen will be
turned out of doors in the Indictment season
of the year. Funds for the tenants will ac-
complish two important results. They will
keep them from suffering, and by so doing
will tend to avert disturbances, which should
they occur now would inevitably postpone
still further the realization of the hopes of
Irish patriots and supply welcome excuse
for the revival of coercive measures. Liberal
contributions from America at this juncture
will probably do more for Ireland than did
the funds that were sent over the sea in such
abundance during the parliamentary cam
paign.

Washington dispatches say the President
is about to inquire into the cases of the office
holders who have been disobeying his civil
service order. Charges have been made
against large number, and if they are sus-
tanned and punishment in the shape of dis
charge follows there will be a good many
vacancies, for other Democrats to fight over.
The State in which there has been more and
grosser SHINING than in any other is Indiana,
where Democracy is of most pronounced
type. In Texas, too, there have been some
shortcomings, while in Maine a Democratic
collector Of internal revenue has boasted that
his voice is his own and that he shall use it
whenever he sees fit, office or no Office. II
the President means that his outgivings on
the subject of civil service reform shall be
accepted as something more than mere bum
combe. the official heads of some or all of
these disobedient oficeholders must come
off. If he means to have it understood that
his professions of regard for civil service re-
form are mere professions, not meant to be
applied in practice. he will let the heads of
these officials stay on.

Judges saw this increase in their various pre-
cincts, and knew that they must put the
Democratic increase above it; so they put it
up to II, 722 and brought their candidates in
with flying colors on plurality of sc, 5S5 votes
This is an election by the people of Arkan-
sas; and such are the remarkable results of
its management. 1t is difficult to see that
the right of suffrage carries with it any priv
ilege at all, for unless appearances count for
nothing, the will of Democratic managers
and not the will of the voters, determines the
size of majorities and the fate of candidates.
