IT is very much to be regretted that the
sensational stuff about an attempt to
asssssinate President-elect Harrison
should have been allowed to go over
the wires. 1t has all the flash character
istics of that era of the New York Herald
which journal gave it to the country,
when the wild animals were represented
as having broken loose from the Central
Park menagerie and as being engaged in
playing havoc with the babies and nurse
girls of Gotham. 1t is evidently canard
of the gauziest description. No Presi-
Dental campaign in the history of the
| United States ever ended with such
universal good will as that which has just
come to a close. The Democrats took
their defeat with unexampled re-
signation, and the disposition was
universal amongst the support
ers OF Cleveland and Thurman
to take the thing philosophically.
General Harrison has not in his past
career excited any animosities in his
own party; and it is too early for any
heart burnings in the office-seeking class.
There is thus no conceivable motive why
anyone should seek to emulate John
Wilkes Booth or Guiteau. 1t is possible
that, when the President shall have dis.
posed of the spoils, some disappointed
crank aspirant for place may seek to
slay him, but that state of things will
hardly develop before next summer. The
very suggestion of an attempted
assassination, however, may put
the notion of murder into the head
of some lunatic who otherwise would
never have thought of it. That political
assassination is exotic in American poll.
tics, is shown by our long immunity from
such crimes from the foundation of the
Government until 1866, when Lincoln
fell under the bullet OF Booth. 1t is true
that threat to murder President An.
drew Jackson was made by crazy Eng
lishman somewhat over fifty years ago
but that, the Booth and Guiteau episodes,
are the only blots of the kind in our his
tory. When sensationalism takes the
shape of possibly melting cranks to vio-
lence, it ought to be severely repre-
hended.

The sale of seats continues to be very

GOV. Moonlight Sheds His Radian ce
OH wyoming.

WASHINGTON, December 21 .-Governor
Moonlight, of Wyoming, has submitted
to the Secretary of the Interior a supple
mentary report on the population of that
Territory. In explanation of his purpose
in making this report, the Governor
says "The question of the population of
Wyoming seems at present to be agitat-
ing the minds of the press of the Terri
tory, our delegate in Congress and many
OF our people; and as from recent publ
cations and quotations it will be seen
that the reports of the Governor of 1887
and 1888 are quoted as authority by
those seeking to make the population
large, have deemed it proper in JUS
tice to myself and for the sake of the
truth to make this report"
He then quotes from the reports OF
Governors of the Territory for the last
several years, showing the then esti-
mated population. In 1885 Governor
Warren gave it 65000; 1886, Governor
Warren, $4,000; 1887, Governor Moon
light, $4,000; 1888, Governor Moonlight,
IS 900.
His own estimates, the Governor saws,
were based upon former reports and in.
quiries among the people, as no census
has been taken since $780, He is salts.
fed that his previous estimates were too
high. He bases his judgment upon the
number of votes cast for Delegate in No
vember. This vote was 18,O0S, from
which the Governor estimates the "real
population" to be about 50, 500.

Senator Sherman Addresses Some

Sherman was this evening serenaded by

ed, thanking the Senator for his great
ard unremitting services on behalf OF
the colored race. They protested against
the recognition of Protection Democrats
in the South by their elevation to high
offices under the incoming administra-
ton and called upon the American peo-
pie to protect their brothers in certain
sections of the South, in the exercise of
their constitutional rights as freemen.
Senator Sherman in response said in
part: "The problem Of securing to you
the peaceful enjoyment of equal rights
and privileges is most difficult one in
American politics. So far as the consti-
tuition and laws of our country can do it,
you stand before me invested with every
right as freemen. If in some of the
Southern States these rights are denied
to you, you must remember and make al
lowances for opinions and prejudices
of ages and for your enforced
ignorance. Those prejudices will disap.
pear as you acquire education and prop
erty; and you can win by moderation
and good character the respect apd con-
fidence of the sons of tho who held you
or your ancestors as slaves. If you suffer
injustice under the shadow of the past,
remember that never before in human
history did an emaneipated race or class
make such progress in so short time as
you have.
Senator Sherman expressed the hope
and belief that the next Congress would
pass a uniform election law to secure to
every man the right to vote and have
that vote counted, but he warned them
that Congress could not interfere in local
elections. "Your hope" said he, ''is in
moral conviction growing stl onger day by
day, that injustice to you reacts on your
oppressors. 1t is for you to show the
lntruth of the charge that you are not
fitted tor the duties OF citizenship, and
that in those States where you are
numerous you would establish Negro
rule and endanger civilization"

Honesty and Money.

II was Shakespeare who said that
ecro be honest as this world goes
il to be one man picked out of ten
thousand" This may be true in a
general sense, but it is far wide oil
the mark so far as the great mass OF
the business men of the country are
concerned. There are black sheep
everywhere, but the desire OF every
man who embarks in business is to
make name for himself, to he res
pected by his fellowman and the
community at large, and in thous-
ands ofinstances man would rath-
sacrifice his life than his good name
In the commercial world. Ne great
or proof can be had Of this than
tae self. destruction of hundreds Of
men who have faced death rather
than dishonor. No man embarks
IN business without one permanent
object, and that is gain. He Of
fers up all his energies to it, and
without it life would be scarcely
worth the living, that is the true
life. Aud what a noble work it is
tho lettering Of ones condition.
Not only does it tend to secure
ones happiness, but it helps to
make others happy--every one In
aud around ones home. Every
mans motto in life should bs with
charity for all; with malice toward
none" And if man is charitable,
and all successful men are more or
less so, he helps to provide the poor
with many grains Of comfort. Thus
honesty and wealth are bound hand
in hand together.
