BIOGRAPHICAL

Gov. S. j. Tilden was born at New
Lebanon, Columbia county, n. y,
in the year 1914. One of his ances-
tors, Nathaniel TiIden, was mayor
of the city of Tenterden, Kent, Eng
land, in 1923. He was superseded
IN that office by his cousin John, as
he had been preceded by his uncle
John in 1885 and 1900. He remov-
ed with his family to Scituate, Mass :,
in, 1884. His brother, Joseph Til
den, was one of the merchants adj
ventnrers of London who fitted out
the Mayfower. This Nathaniel Fill
den married Hannah Bourne, one of
whose sisters married a brother of
Gov. Winslow, and another son of
Gov. Bradford. Gov. Tilden' S
grandfather, John Tilden, settled in
Columbia county. The governors
mother was descended from William
Jones, acknowledgement of the
colony of New Haven, who. in all
the histories of Connecticut is rep
re esented to have been the son of Col.
G!ohn James, one of the regicide
Judges of King Charles l., who is
said to have married daughter of
Oliver Cromwell and cousin of John
Hampden. Gov Tilden's father
was a farmer and a merchant in New
Lebanon. He was a man of notable
judgment and practical sense. He
was chosen adviser and intimate
friend of President Van Buren. 1t
was from his father that Gov. Tilden
inherited his taste for politics. In
his 18th year he was sent TO Yale col
lege, but i'll health soon compelled
him to leave, and IN 1884 he entered
the University of New York. After
concluding his collegiate course he
studied law with John w. Edmunds
of New York. Van Buren's election
in 1887 was followed by period of
severe financial distress. The presi-
dent began an to attack on the bank
and advocated the establishment of a
seperate treasury. Into this debate
young Tilden threw himself with all
the vigor and resource of his won
derfal character. He wrote pow
erful series of papers in defense of
the presidents position, which ex-
erted a marked influence on the dis
cussion. This was remarkable
piece of work for young man still
student and gave promise of the
wonderful, maturity of the future
Democratic standard bearer Mr..
Tllden opened a law office on Pine
street in New York Immediately af-
ter his admission to the bar
In 1914 preparing for The election

GOV. PIERCE'S RESIGNATION.

Gov. Pierce, OF Dakota, who was an.
pointed chief executive Of that Territory
by the late ex-President Arthur, has ten.
dered his resignation to President Cleve.
land. His term of Office does not expire
till 1888, but he desires to resign for rea-
sons fully set forth in his letter of ~resisna-
ton. As that document makes an &C.
acknowledgement which few Republican Jour-
nails have the honesty to make, we give it
entire, and commend it to the considera-
ton OF others:
Mr.. President:
I hereby tender my resignation as Cover.
nor of the Territory of Dakota. Offices of
this character were made an exception to
the rules governing removals from office
laid down by you at the opening of your
administration. but you have kindly alb
stained from interference with me, and
have never by act Or word indicated that
my continuance IN Office was not entirely
acceptable. l tender my resignation now be-
cause the pressure for the place subjects you
to constant annoyance, and because I fear
my " usefulness is impaired by the con-
slant agitation OF the question of change.
Throughout my incumbency of the office l
have met with nothing but personal kind
ness and official courtesy at yourh hands
and those of your advisers. The most cor
dial support has baen afforded me, and
my relations in this respect have been most
pleasant and agreeable. This treatment OF
n whose political affiliations are not
those OF the dominant party shows a spirit
OF tolerance which lends dignity to your
high office and demands this frank &C
acknowledgement from me. With the assu-
rance, Mr.. President, of my deep obliga-
tions for your courtesy. AMI with a sincere
wish for your personal welfare, l remain
with greatest respect your obedient SER
want, GILBERT A. PIERCE.

As an evidence Of the good influence
which contact with civilized natl ms has
exerted upon the Chinese government, it
may be stated that it has issued a procla-
nation warning all Chiuese subjects against
stirring up strife against Christian nations.
1t has also agreed to permit Christian Chi
nese to compete for honors in it's literary
institutions. This latter is a concession as
unexpected as it is significant. A nation
that has been in the habit of closing it's
doors to Christian institutions until the
last few years and permitting it's people to
kill missionaries whenever the humor
seized them, makes a long step forward in
opening the doors OF it's institutions OF
learning even to it's own Christianize6 sub
jects. There is hope for China yet. When
she knows more she will keep her people at
home where they belong.

new French Ministry has been formed
with N. Goblet at its head. The Miners
dispatched of yesterday morning give the
names OF the gentlemen composing it,
There was really no occasion for this
change in the ministry. France has several
troubles Of her own in the present
critical cosdition of things in Europe. She
is troubled about Egypt and anxious to
make good her claims there. She is trou-
bled about her relation to her next neigh.
Dor, Germany, who plainly says that she
will presently be compelled to fight France.
She has other troubles, but one of the
things as to which there was no occasion
to be troubled, but which caused her to
indulge in this full-blown ministerial change
was a set OF uncomfortable officials called
sous-prefets. The old Ministry and
Chamber OF Deputies couldn't sgree about
them and so the former resigned, and a
new one is formed ss stated.

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?

Says a Republican exchange: "a queer
state OF things: The treasury vaults are
bursting with cart-wheel dollars and other
forms of money, and the annual receipts
exceed expenditures by 1925, OOO, 900, yet
there isn't a decent ship in the nations
navy, nor have We one harbor with AIDE.
quate defenses."
1t strikes US we have heard something
K this before from the same source dur.
ing the past two years-that is, since the
Democratic party attained to power. We
are told we have no navy, and the blame
for that particular weakness in our war
service is laid at the door OF the present
administration. Now, the fact is, there is
not q well-informed Republican journal in
the country that does not know that the
party it represents is wholly to blame for
the deplorable condition of our navy. For
twenty-five years the Republican party
had complete control OF the National Gov
ernment, holding within it's grasp the at
thority and right with sufficient means at
hand to build a navy and, in fact, squan-
dered money enough to have done so.
From 1867, after the war wat over and
peace was declared, down to 1880 the
party in power sunk in a lot of rotten hulks
1895, 671, 451.72. There is money enough
represented in the amount thus s~quandered
to have built a respectable navy, but in
stead Of it's being used legitimately it was
stolen by the Reaches and their partners
m high position in the Government.
The present Navy Department, as soon
as it came into power, vent to work to re-
build the navy and the new ships under
way will make a good beginning. If the
treasury is bursting with money it makes a
good showing for the administration, as it's
predecessor used it up in wildcat s~pecula-
ton, while the present administration is
using as much as possible OF the surplus in
off the Government indebtedness.
It certainly m with poor grace to harp
upon the miserable condition of the navy
and coast defenses, a the Republican party
) wholly responsible for it. !

Labor conferences are SO numerous just
now that it is somewhat difficult to follow
them ~intelIigently, and accurately compre.
bend their composition and their respec-
tive aims. The Federation of Trades and
Labor Unions in session at Columbus aims
to preserve aud consolidate the various
organizations of American workmen, and
to define the limits of their general activity
in the protection of industrial interests
common to all OF them. 1t is claimed that
delegates present represent over four hun
drcd thousand mechanics. It remains to be
seen to whatspecial recommendations they
will agree. It is fair to assume, however,
that the labor suggestions in the Presi-
dents message will receive the thoughtful
consideration of the Federation.

The New York Sun mentions a test made
in Boston as to the honesty of the men
and women Of that city. A philanthropist
and student OF human nature bought a
dozen cheap umbrellas, had a nickel plate
inserted in each handle, on which was his
address and the request that the umbrella
be returned, and on the first rainy day went
out on the street and handed one to each
umbrellaless woman that he met. All were
returned within a week but one, and in
place Of that came a note saying that it
had been stolen and that the writer would
pay for it. The next rainy day he handed
the umbrellas to twelve unprotected men.
He never saw but one of them again, and
that was brought in by a friend who said
he had stolen it at a church festival. Had
he tried that experiment in Butte every
umbrella would have been returned, ac-
by a silver brick as an acknowl-
edgment of the lenders kindness.
