The Presidential election will be held
this year ON Tuesday the 9th of Novem-
Der. Every citizen should be prepared TO
vote, and TO vote as his honest judgment
will dictate. The following suggestions
as to the qualification of electors should
DO carefully considered by all parties in
terested: Native born citizens who will
be between twenty-one and twenty 1.-TWO
years Of age on election day. can vote
without having been assessed or the pay
ment of taxes A citizen becomes twenty
one years Of age on the day before his
birthday. Thus one born ON the It'll
of November twenty-one years ago, can
vote on age on the 9th of November this
year. The only requisite for a man voting
on age is that he shall have resided in his
precinct sixty days previous TO the cleo
ton There is often dispute as
to tho true residence of a citizen in cases
where men pursue their employment in
different places Residence is a question
Of intention on the part of the citizen,
and unless the intention Of the voter is
in conflict with the law. his own testi-
mcny is accepted as conclusive.
Every citizen should hold his citizenship
as too valuable to be the plaything Of
party committees. and he should look to
his own assessment. to his own naturali-
cation and to the payment of his own
taxes The cost Is SO small that all can
afford it who value the high prerogatives
thereby conferred. Let every man qualify
himself for voting, and then let him vote
exactly as his best judgment dictates, re-
gardless of leaders or parties. -Philadel

 "Who said-the 'Queenp"
 "No, my grandfather Sal. The Queen sent Ter to fetch the toff to see Ter cut Ter lucky Wanted i'm to look at lis work, I spose, cuss i'm; and Sal prigged some paper from my box," she shrieked, indignantly; "prigged it wen I were too drunk to stop 'er."
 The detective glanced at Calton, who nodded to him with a gratified expression on his face. They were right as to the paper having been stolen from the villa at Toorak. "You did not see the gentleman who came?' said Kilsip, turning again to the old hag.
 Mot I, cuss you,n she retorted, politely. "'E came about 'arf past in the morning, an you don't expects we can stop up all night, blarst ye,"
 Half past 1 o'clock" repeated Calton, quickly. 'The very time. Is this trueg"
 "Wish may die if it ain't," said Mother Guttersnipe, graciously. My gran'darter Sal kin tell ye."
 "Where is sheg' asked Kilsip, sharply.
 At this the old woman threw back her head and howled in a dismal manner.
 "She's looked it" she walled, drumming on the ground with her feet. "Gon' an left Ter pO1S old 6IeiA JoluSu tllS stILuy, CuSS SiIl, a-comin' round an a spilin' business"
 Meanwhile the detective was talking rap idly to MT. Calton.
 ''The only person who can prove MT. Fitz- gerald was here between and o'clock" he said quickly, lis Sal Rawlins, as every one else seems to have been drunk or asleep. As she has joined the Salvation Army, I'll go to the barracks the first thing in the morning and look for her"
 "Ihope you'll find her." answered Calton, drawing a long breath. "A mans life hangs on her evidence"
 They turned to go, Cation having first given Mother Guttersnipe some loose silver, which she seized on with an avaricious clutch
 The sight of money had Q genial effect on her nature for she held the candle at the head of the stairs as they went down, so that they should not break their heads.
 The street door was open, and, after grop- ing their way along the dark passage, with its pitfalls, they found themselves in the open street.
 "Thank heaven" said Calton, taking of his hat and drawing a long breath. "rhank heaven we are safely out of that den!"
 "At all events our journey has not been wasted" said the detective, as they walked along ''Weve found out where Mir. Fitz- gerald was the night of the murder, so he will be safe"
 That depends upon Sal Rawlins," an- swered Calton, gravely; "but come, let us have glass of brandy, for I feel quite ill after my experience of low life."

close as wax, and it's my belief she knows more about this dead woman than she chooses to tell"
 But what could she have told Fitzgerald to make him act in this silly manner? A stranger who comes from England and dies in a Melbourne slum can't possibly know anything about Miss Frettlby."
 Kilsip looked puzzled.
 ''I must confess that it is riddle" he said at length; "but if MT. Fitzgerald would only speak, it would clear everything up."
 What, about who murdered Whyte9"
 'Well, it might not go so far as that, but it might supply the motive for the crime"
 "I dare say you are right" answered Cal ton, thoughtfully, as the detective rose and put on his hat But it's no use. FitZger- aid, for some reason or another, has evidently made up his mind not to speak, so our only hope in saving him lies in finding this girl"
 'If she's anywhere in Australia you may be sure she'll be found," answered Kilsip, confidently, as he took his departure. "Aus- tralia isn't 30 overcrowded as all that"

John G. Carlisle has made by far the
best presentation yet made public on the
tariff question. There has been great
deal Of talk on the tariff by large num-
Der OF people; the debate is at last closed
In the House. and this will be the judg-
ment of people OF unbiased mind. Waiv-
ing the question OF which side is right,
putting our own views as to tariff reform
in general, and the Mills bill in particu-
lar out OF sight, and the verdict Of all
unbiased minds will be that for logical
treatment and lucid presentation
OF facts and principles Mr..
Carlisle has delivered the ahlest
speech made in the House. Mr..
Randall anu Mr.. Reed both fall behind
the Speaker OF the House in this regard.
There is an absence Of partisan rancor,
a freedom from sectional reference, an
utter avoidance Of special pleading, Of
the Belial-like logical methods which
make the worse appear the better reason,
about these deliverances OF Mr.. Carlisle,
which are really refreshing after all Of
that sort of argument heard for
two weeks past. The address Of the
Speaker OF the House is a broad-gauge,
lucid, luminous, honest and convincing
argument. There is one line OF difference
running all through this speech which
places it by world above the utterances
Of many who preceded him. He is
careful to avoid that narrow and badly
informed method OF presenting the sub
ject which makes the tariff the one factor
in our industrial affairs. Mr.. Carlisle
knows that high tariff or low tariff
protective tariff or no tariff, there are
other and greater factors whose influence
has been potent in the improvement o.
our agricultural industries, in the devel
Iopment Of our manufacturing enterprises
and in the general prosperity OF oul
country. That is the vicious fallacy into
which nearly all who discuss the tarif
from the Protection standpoint fall
that is the vicious fallacy which Mr.. Car
Isle has avoided.

selves.

To give the devil his due, and in spite
OF their own bad report OF themsel YES in
this respect, the Republican party has
not heretofore been guilty OF the absurd
and iudefensible policy OF advocating a
tariff for taxation policy. The fact il Mr.
Cleveland's message male war memo
ries, negro votes, and all other claptrap
an impossible platform on which to
conduct the campaign Of this year. That
State paper is so clear, 80 explicit, so vi
tai in its effects, that the z. 0. p. had to
face the music of the present, and could
no longer proceed to the sad, but reyered
notes of any dead march" This left
no choice to the Republican party but to
eat their own words, take back what they
said about tariff reform four years ago,
and adopt this stupid principle, or blunder
of taxing the people to make monopolies
rich. Mr.. Blaines counterblast was moth
ing more nor less than the highest bed
that could be offered for the
support of rich oligarchy
against the champion of the peoples
rights. Yes, and the bid has been ac-
cepted. The millionaires have accepted
the offer and it is taxation against re-
form; monopolies against the people
money against votes. The candidate
will be Blaine; the platform will be tax
alton; the persuasive argument will be
'gold, gold; bright, bright gold -
against logic, facts, principles and the
good of the country. But, as we
say, to give the devil his due, this
is only making virtue, or rather
vice OF necessity. 1t is this or nothing
for all other ground is cut from under
their feet. In proof of this we would ask
il this is not so, then at what other time
in the history of the party did IL ever
proclaim in favor of taxation for tax
ation's sake? Did not the party in 1880
elect MIR. Garfield President; aud was
not Mr.. Garfield Free.trader to his
dying day? Was he not mem
Der OF the Golden Club? And
whether he was or not, did not the
party, time and again, proclaim itself in
favor OF reforming the enormous tariff
rates established to meet the vast de-
mands of the war, and acknowledged by
themselves to be unnecessary for any
other purpose, and unjust under any
other circumstances?

''Do you know" that in 1876, when
There was need OF more revenue than
here is to-day, because there were still
outstanding bonds to the amount Of
many millions OF dollars, redeemable at
the will of the people and when there
was more need OF protection to "infant
industries" for these are twelve years
older now than then, and are presumed
to have grown stronger in that time by

MONDAY, MAY 81, 1888.
Is Mr. warais Blaine vii Ing ?

The New York World first gave Mr..
Blaines letter OF decination to the pub
lie. The great journal has always held
that Mr.. Blaine was utterly sincere. Mr..
Pulitzer thinks Mr.. Blaine did not want
the Republican nomination in 1884, and
he thinks the Maine statesman IL far
from bsing hungry for this honor in 1888.
The great journalist thinks this lack of
appetite for the honor arises from con-
viction in the mind of the statesman
that the honor is an empty one-a sort
OF Dead Sea apple, fair to the eye, but
full OF the ashes OF bitterness. In short,
Mr.. Blaine was and is Indifferent about
the nomination for the reason that
he thought and thinks that it is
to be nominated to certain defeat.
In the meantime, papers in all parts OF
the Union have published all sorts OF
rumors az to Mr.. Blaine and his inten-
tions and wishes. Now comes the World
with second interview with the great
Republican apple of discord 1t cannot
be said that the man of the White Cock
ade is as explicit about his own mind in
Paris in May as he was in Florence in
February. Mr.. Blaine wishes to seem
consistent, and therefore declines ex-
plicitly to withdraw anything he has said.
But the World, which has been rather q
stickler in defense OF its hero's sin
cerity, is now forced to say in its edi-
torial columns that Mr. Blaine carefully
and studiously refuses to refuse
the nomination, or to say that the move
ments in that direction are without his
approval" Now, the questions arise
Has Mr.. Blaine been all this time play
ing 'possum, and getting high hopes
aroused in the breasts OF his friends,
Mr.. Sherman, Mr.. Allison, and all the
other "favorite sons' in order, to de-
molish their houses of cards with a
whisper? Or is Mr.. Blaine that sort of a
willing-unwilling Barkis that he would
but dare not? Is he
Letting Il dare not wait upon Il would
Like the poor cat l. the adage?"
Or perhaps the case OF the other wooer
is his, whose memory has been fossilized in
verse in this wise
''He either fears his fate too much,
Or his desert is small
Who dare not put it to the push
To win or lose 1t ALL"
Certainly as he stands now with the
horns of his dilema before us we can i'm.
agine him in the role of Antony saying
my credit now stands on such slippery
ST ound,
That one OF too bad ways you must con
ceit me,
Either a coward or decciuer"

The latest statements about the Loui-
siana election put a rather better face
on it. Several Republican papers pub
lished in the State assert that the colored
men by thousands voted the Democratic
ticket. This is better than that they
should have been prevented from voting
at all.-I0akland Inquirer, Rep.
The same news comes from Alabama,
where the Republican leaders OF the
better sort declare they prefer to
see The Democrats hold the Stale
offices rather than let them fiji into
the hands Of the politicians OF their
own party, who in that section
are mostly Of the Moses, Yarmouth and
Pinchbeck stripe. For all that the
hide bound, narrow-mindcd, partisan
press Of the North will for the most part,
90 in with its mendacious pretence that
the negro is deprived of his franchise.
This programme is not for the ns gro's
benefit, but To make votes among the
Intelligent Republicans Of the North
The intelligence which seeks such guild
ance is of rare sort.

OUR Republican contemporaries do not
approve of the Democratic platform made
at our State Convention. Wei, who ex-
pected them to approve of it? Ii they
thought it good they would not he in a
hurry to tell us SO. But they could
hardly think SO. 1t strikes q vigorous
blow at monopolies, and that pains the
Republican heart; and it rakes up the
Republican record as to laud-grants, and
that pains the Republican conscienre.
No wonder it is disapproved Of.

Wr. Fornn,s Folly.

The fool people," as disgruntled poll
ticans call the rest of US, are hard
problem to solve, until too late for the
answer to do the politicians any good.
Mr.. Foran is Congressman, he comes
from Ohio, he is a Democrat Ohio is
known TO have been badly poisoned by
the pernicious doctrine OF tariff for taxa
ton. Mr.. Foran, with his ear to the tel
ephone, heard murmur from his State,
and thereupon took up the cudgels against
the Mills bill. He thought this is wis t
his constituents would have had him do.
But now it turns out that the
wires from Ohio were crossed,
and that Mr.. Foran heard Republican
murmur, not one from the Democratic
camp. His own constituents, the Demo
Gratis of his district in Convention assem-.
bled, Illuminated this rescript and aime
it at his head:
The bill now pending before the House
of Representatives known rs the mills
bill,' having for its object the reduction
OF taxation and to reform the tariff IL
accord with the principles promulgated
| by President Cleveland in his re-
cent message, is wise and
patriotic measure, and should have
the support OF every Democrat in
the Congress OF the United States.
Now Mr.. Foran is looking for some way
to mortify his own flesh for being SC
stupid as to mistake the voice OF the Re
publican Jacob, for that of the true
Democratic Isaac, and to have sold hif
seat in Congress for even less than g
mess OF pottage. These "fool people,
it is difficult to say just what we will do
One thing is beyond dispute. We are
getting our views s'raightened out OIL
the Tariff for Taxation proposition.
