Mr.. COnklIng's Career.

The public career of Roscoe ConkIing.
like his character, was unique. Begin
ming before be was thirty years old, This
career was terminated by his Own act
when he was fifty. No other American
has twice declined seat on the Su-
pTeme Bench and resigned :he leader.
ship of The United States Senate. No
other lawyer ever returned to his pro-
fessiOn. after more than a score of wears
spent in the public service, and quickly
stepped to the verv front OF the Bar OF,
The me tropoiis.
Mr. COnkling was not only a leader of
the Senate for m4ny years. but he was
a great popular leader. His enemies
called him boss But no politician
of his time deserved this title less.
Compare his methods with those OF
Tweed, Kelly, Plstt, Cameron. Ouay
and other men who have succeeded by
:he use of patronage and the secret
arts or minagement and the dis
tinction is apparent. The boss'' rules
oY bribery, cunning or brute foree.
The leader attracts and sways men hy
the force OF his intellect, the power Of
eloquence and the strength of his per
son9lity. Petty politicians may oe bos-
sed, but the people must be persuaded.
No one but a natura; leader could have
swept this State as Mr.. COLkling did in
several elections-nOtably in the great
campaign OF 1880, when he snatched
victory for Garfield from the jaws of de-
feat.
Roscoe Conkling's cireer afforded the
best example We have had in this State
since the death OF Seward OF the power
OF brains In the direction of public af-
:alrs. He ruled by the divine right of
ability 20 rule. The little men who
nave since ratified around in the place
that be left vacant simp'y make more
apparent Roscoe Conkling's greatness.

Music or Republican Harmony.

The Chicago Tribune speaks OF the
moderation of Mr.. Mills opening
speech OF the tariff debate, and SAYS he
seemed Ito invite all Republicans who
would consent 10 a moderate, needed,
and carefully guarded revision of the
tariff TO join him In amending aid per-
fecting the bill of the committee with
these ends in view. 1t then goes on
How was this reasonable proposition met
by the Republican leaders? Simply by
putting pig Iron Kelly forward to roar
for free whisky, 10 oppose reduction of the
sugar tax, and :nsanely TO deBounce any aud
ali reform OF the tariff as mes ming absolute
free trade, blight and ruin" No wonder
many Western Republican members hung
their heads in shame, aud others hurried of
in disgust 10 the cloak rooms before Kelly
concluded him imbecile TRADE.
The only excuse offered" continues
this powerful Republican jOurnal-pow-
erful because IL has the backing Of half
a dozen Western Republican States
''for permitting this subsidized. bigoted,
chattering old crank TO appear as the
spokesman of the Republican party IN
Congress. Was that he is the father of
the house." The Tribune continues
after this fashion
The Tribune warns the Republicans of
the house that they are getting themselves
into position that Is giving their constitu-
entS In :he West a great deal of anxiety
The Democratic majority reported bill
which, while faulty in several details, en-
braces general policy that would be highly
advantageous ana beneficial TO Western
farmers and Western people generally. If
iudIciously amended the bill could be made
great blessing to the country and no hard
snip would be inflicted on any honest class
or any section.
The Republican minority. instead of sug-
gesting such amendments or preparing a
substitute bill, cOntented themselves with
growing and snarlibg and performing the
dog-in-the- -manger-acr.
They Cthe Republican members) have an
enviable and unusually fine opportunity to
reduce taxation on the essentials OF life and
secure substantial benefits to their con,titu

millions OF Western farmers and make an

John Sherman Shown an old Scar.

The citizens of Louisiana have given
on emphatic response to Senator Sher-
mans latest attempt to make the world
believe their State Republican. LOUIS
lana is as much a Republican State nov
as she was in 1876, when Republican
politIcians-JohnS Sherman amohg the
res;-peTsuaded rascally Returning
Board to steal her electoral vote, John
Sherman's own misgivings at that time
we're sufficiently betrayed when he
dragged David NJ. Key, a Tennessee
Democrat, t, into the Hayes Cabinet few
days after Key, on the floor of the Uni
ted States Senate, had bitterly de-
nounced the electoral fraud. This Ten
nessee Democrat was made Postmaster
General in a Republican Adminisira-
tlon. In the consciousness OF its own
members that a great political crime
had been committed.
1t has been more than eleven years
since that event, and the abhorrencs of
the people of Louisiana for all concern :
ed In the preparation of the fraud is
now greater than ever. The IecolIec-
tion of the corrupt rule of Warmoth
and Kellogg, and of the fraudulent
processes by which a great popular ma
jOrity was effaced, make it impossible
that louisiana should become a Repuo-
lican State so long az the present politic-
al parties exist. She has shown John
Sherman the scar of his fraud.-Phila.

Blaine's Great Foe.

Roscoe ConkIing was the implacsble
foe of James q. Blaine. They were
rival leaders in the House a quarter of
a century ago. and in one of their par
limentary disputes they both lost their
tempers and gave the largest latitude
to their invective. Since then Blaine
and Conkling have ever met as stran-
gers they did not even speak or nod
as they passed by, and in later debates
in the Senate, neither ever alluded to
the other beyond saying-'It has been
stated on this floor, I" e.c, instead of re-
terring to the Honorable Senator from
Maine'' or the Honorable Senator
from New York - as is the customary
Senatorial courtesy.
Conkling's last direct allusion to
Blaine in public speech was in his mem
rable oration nominating General
Grant in the Chicago Convention of
1880, when he rang out stinging SEN
teDce against the popular candidate
that sent up confused chorus of Kisses
and cheers from ter thousand people for
many minutes. His last act in the
Blaine drama was the revolution of his
county, Oneida. where Cleveland receiv-
ed 80 majority over Blaine. and where
Garfield had received 1,946 over Han
cock four years before. When it is re-
mbered tnat Cleveland's majority in
the State was only /, 100, and that the
change in Conkling's county alone was
1876, the Conkling deatb-blow to the
Plumed Knight will be appreciated.
The death of COnkling removes from
the political arena the most dreaded of
all BIaine's many political foes, and 1t
is evident that Blaine's friends regard
the death of Conkling as removing one
OF the most dangerous obstacles to
Blaine's success. Con king feared 70
man bowed TO no man was a su )pli-
cant To no man. He was alike a stran-
ger to intimidation and TO commercial
politics, and Blaine was without the
attributes necessary to enlist ConklIng
in his support but Conkling is dead,
and the hopes OF the friends of Blaine
have fresh revival over the fresh grave
of his inveterate political enemy.
That the friends of Blaine will be in
spired 20 increased energy and hope in
their cause by the death of Conk ing,
every side and It is more than prOba-
ble that the earnest efforts for Blaine
exhibited during the last few weeks,
will be more earnest and more general
hencetorth than in the past. II is not
impossible now that the death of Conk-
ling may determine the trembling
balance in favor of Blaine's renomina-
tioh, and thus shape the great national
contest of 1SSS.-Phild. Times.

A few days ago Mary Reed. az aged res
ident of Bridgeport, Conn, sold building
lot, for which she received in cash 3. .070.
The money was paid to her on Thursday OF
last week in the presence OF Thomas Ken
nedy, who counted the money and handed
1t over to her. Mrs. Reed laid il away, as
she supposed. in a safe place. Kennedy Wis
tied the house on Sunday, during Mrs.
Reeds absence, took the, money, and left
town. 1t Is supposed he intends to sail nor
Europe. The police will Try to intercept
him.
An attempt was made Sunday morning
a week to blow up the residence of Mrs
Jessie Craig at Richmond, Ind. Mrs. Hew-
lit and her four children were also inmates.
Mrs. Craig was pitched forward'to the floor
and rendered unconscious. The chair on
which Mrs. Hewitt sat was split to pieces
and she was knocked senseless. The bed
on which the children slept was wrecked,
though the children escaped unhurt.- Mrs.
Hewitt was hurt about the side and arms
and Mrs. Craig was slightly bruised. A dy-
Mantle cartridge had been exploded in the
cellar.
"A church In Ottawa, Kan, is trying to

whose best girl is as pretty as picture. has
been known to stand shivering an hour In

THE sickness Of Emperor Frederick.
of Germany, says the Philadelphia Re
cord, is undoubtedly unto death, AMI at
any moment news may be flashed under
the ocean that this patient and uncom-
planning sufferer has given up the strug-
gle, and that for the second time within
a few short weeks the German Empire
has passed under the authority OF new
ruler. Whilst there are maby people
optimistic enough to believe that the
death of Frederick would not bring
about immediate danger to Germany.
yet the conditions which are likely to
follow that event may, even in view of
Bismarck's acknowledged conservative
policy, evolve a war-cloud that would
cover the whole of Western Europe.

BEFORE the Louisiana election Hen
ry G. Yarmouth. the Republican can
didate for Governor, travelled over the
State and told the people that he was
going to have a majority of p, 900 over
Nichols. The outlook for the Dem
ocratic State ticket at one period in the
campaign did look decidedly blue, owing
to dissensions and quarrels in the Dem
ocratic ranks. but harmonious support
of Nichols was at last brought about,
and Yarmouth energes fIom the con-
test with a majority of between 10000
and $4,000 against him. He is the
ablest man and the most skilful and
adroit politician of his party ic the
State. He was once Governor OF the
State aud her people have not forgotten
his career and that of the plundering
gang of carpetbaggers which surrounded
him. The result of the louisiana cleo
tion shows that if John Sherman should
become the Republican candidate foI
President his party would be saved the
trouble of nominating an electoral tick
ct in that State. Not even such a Re-
turning Board as he aided and abetted
in cheating Tilden out of her vote
twelve years ago, could count out the
majority which Louisiana would give
against the most conspicuous agent in
perpetrating the infamous electoral
fraud of 1876.

The Policy OF Obstruction.

The policy OF obstruction, purely for
obstIuction's sake, without regard 10
the public interests involved, has never
before been so fully developed in this
country as by the Republicans IN the
present Congress. The Senate, especi-
ally, which the Republicans control,
appears SO have settled upon obs.ruc-
tion as a definite line of party policy,
not to prevent Objectionable measures,
bnt solely to embarrass the Democratic
administration. Rarely have the lead
ers of a great party been content to
place themselves in so thoroughly un-
patriotic position
1t is il accordance with this policy
that 1t has been determined to reject
the fisheries treaty. The objection is
not to the treaty itself, for the opposi-
tion to it began before its provisions
were known. 1t Is opposed because 1t
was negotiated by a Democratic ad-
ministration and world, if confirmed,
secure to that administration the credit
of having settled successfully and pa
trioticslly a controversy that has kept
two friendly nations IN discoId for gen
erations. Precisely the same policy is
indicated toward the new Chinese
treaty, which secures all and more than
all that the most vigorous opponent of
Chinese immigration has demanded,
but which has been pigeon holed in the
Senate lest its ratification should re-
dound to the credit of the Democratic
administration. 1t is the same policy
OF obstruction that is to be applied to
defeat the revision OF the tariff.
Under the parliamentary system.
where the ministry represents the ma
jority of the legislature for the time be-
ing, great public questions are some
times treated as party measures, in
order to bring about an immediate
change in the executive. But a change
cannot be effected in this way
under our Constitution and the re-
suit of obstruction as a party policy
can only be to prevent the proper
discharge of public business. The
Republicans seem to expect that
the country will blame the Democrats
for this but tie American people are
not easily gulled, and they usually lay
the responsibility where it belongs
