The Dismissal.

Sc His own government declining to re-
I'll him, the British minister has been
6lsmissed by the president. The letter
Addressed by the secretary of state to the
reoeident, reviewing the causes for this
eceion, lays stress upon the fact that the
1otter Of Lord Sackville West to Murchi.
- confirmed, by its failure to disapprovs,
1 - aspersions of the letter he answered ;
ond that after the correspondence was
nnde public, he maintained to repre-
omtatives of the press his charges against
the good faith Of the government in its
International dealings.
Our government seems to hold that the
British minister has been deliberately
malicious in his action. His own gov.
wnment considers that he has not in
tended any affront, but has been misled
by his anxiety to counsel a countryman
Ia distress seeking his advice. Our gov
ernment evidently considers Lord Sack
vile to be smarter than his own govern.
ment holds him to be. And it is to be
said in favor of this view of his character
that he cond6cts himself very sensibly in
the trying Situation in which he is now
placed; and that he has not backed
down from any of his statements or
offered any apology or explanation.
Evidently he has all an Englishman's
natural obstinacy and sell. f.esteem, at least,
among his virtues.
The Republican press, which daily
called upon the president to dismiss Lord
Sackville, thinking he would not do It,,
now declares that it is too late to save
him in the election. But there was moth
Ing that he needed to be saved from all
that he needed TO do was TO act 80 as to
meet the public appreciation, and that he
seems to have done. 1t is not apparent
that~pnblic sentiment demanded any
prompter action than he has taken.
Evidently he acted decidedly and
promptly in the representation made to
the English government and when
be received its answer his action
was quick. IL is the height of folly
for Republican journals to complain that
he acted too slowly. They would be
wiser TO acknowledge that there Is nc
cause Of complaint and that their Cali.
fornia gun has failed in its execution
It brought down the man 1t was
+ not aimed at; and, according t.
SeSEetary Bayard, is likely to kicl
into jail the fellows who fired it. i
would be very satisfactory exhibition
Of the working of the laws, if the mel
who cOncocted this dirty scheme wert
made its victims. They will get no sym
pathy IL they are caught, for there is NJ
one who is willing to commend the eros
falsehood which drew the British minis
ter into their trap.

QUAY, 1t seems, has been sending his
begging circulars to Democrats ss well as
Republicans. Fifteen years ago K. B. Co
bAugh d Bro, OF Middletown, Dauph,n
county, were extensively engaged In paint
manufacturing. Thoir works were in
operation several years and considerable
capital was sunk. The collapse OF this In
dustry was attributed to the high tariff on
the raw materials used In the manufacture
OF dyes and paints. The Cobaughs are
sturdy Democrats, and tho answer which
they may send TO Quay from under
the shadow OF their closed factory
will hardly be what the fat-fryer
will contemplate with serenity. After
relating how thoir industry was crippled
by the excessive tsrif1 on ores, etc., they
will tell Chairman Quay that tho sheriff
put the paint buildings into other hands,
and the works are now occupied as resi-.
denco by imported Hungarians.

Halloween.

This is Halloween and the brownies
and fairies will tonight be hard ut work
through their representatives the boys
and girls. Front door steps will get up
and walk and it will be matter for pro-
found thankfulness IL some citizen does
not break his bones by falling out of his
own front door or over string crossing
some dark sidewalk. A part of young
America not SO thoroughly abandoned to
demonacal possession will have jolly
time and do no harm by pulling candy,
bobbing for apples and other time hon
ored frolics.
Halloween or AL Halloween, as It is
more properly called, is the eve Of AL
Saints or All Hallows. In $40 the pope
dedicated the pantheon of Rome to the
honor of all the martyrs, whose blood
had truly been the seed of the church.
All Saints used TO be observed on the
first Of May, but in S34 the date was
changed to November 1. The eve OF
this anniversary day Of the triumph of
Christianity over the old superstitions
was quite naturally regarded as the an
nual holiday of the powers of darkness
and the gnomes and fairies, in whom the
masses believed as firmly as ever.
They were In imagination given free
scope for their deviltry, and revel-
ry for the morrow was hal.
lowed in memory of the deeply tragi.
cal and solemn martyrdom of those early
Christians. 1t seems as though people
sought to nerve themselves for the
austere religious contemplation OF the
martyrs by careless and jovial sympathy
| with the poor little spirits of Halloween.
The bloody details Of martyrdom were
more near and familiar TO the believers
In Halloween than they can be to-day to
the best student, and as the awful
anniversary approached the elfs and
fairies give place to demons and witches,
wraiths of long forgotten gods, and In
creeping horror the peasant longed for
the morning Of all saints with its day.
light memories Of former massacres and
Roman butchery. But as time went on
saints and fairies grew less sombre, and
when Bobbie Burns wrote of Halloween
among his native mountains there was
plenty Of fun in it.

CERTAIN Mr.. Jefferson Jackson Jones
has offered to the New York World, the
pleasing suggestion that 1t would be well TO
Keep Lord Sackville here. ain view
OF coming Canadian complications or
other difficulties that may arise between
us and the mother country as we
fondly and fscet!ously call her, 1t wouid
be better for our state department to deal
with such self confessed simpIeton as
Sackviile than with a far shrewder, sharper
and more sensible minister whom England
would be sure to send In his place.n Jef-
ferson Jackson certainly has a large head
and is quite worthy OF the sonorous names
that help him to get along through the
world with Jones. Now the great value of
his suggestion lies In the possibility that
Blaine may become secretary OF state, a
very remote chance. or course with the
present administration 1t does not matter
at all, because all business OF importance
has always been transacted over Ssckyills,s
head, but Blaine ana "my lord" are said
TO be bosom friends, and the ssiety of
the country would be in this balance Of
cunning with stupidity,
