II the Mugwumps are sincere, they sup,
ported Mr.. Cleveland on tho ground that
he was Civil Service reIorner. He had
80 declared himself for the purpose Of
catching their votes, and thOy went over
to him. The MugRumps had gomething
back oisll thiO, for they are in the main
free traders, and the nominee Of the Re.
publican pOrty is the foremost champion
OF protection. Any mental reservations
Of tho Mugwumps had, however, nothing
to do with Mr.. Clsveland's Civil Service
reform pledges.
How we'll the PresidSn. has kept his
promise Senator Hale has shown in his
crushing array OF facts. There is no need
OF inyectiyc, no occasion to add anything
to the convincing srguuen! Of the record.
It IL true that the President has not salts
fisd his party in the matter Of Offices
but this was psrLly because he could not
turn on. in the frs. week Of his Admins.
trati1n all the Republicans, and partly be-
cau,s there is not an office for every aspir.
ing Democrat. There would have been q
few more offices for Democrats II the
President had not felt under obligation
to give the sainted MugwumpS dip into
the public meAl.trorgh.
The President has kept his Civil Ser
vice reform pledges by putting his own
partisans into office as fast IS no could.
That is about all that he could hsvo done
II he had not been pledged to Civil Ser
vice reform. Between tho Presldent's
pledges and his performance there Is q
clear case OF false pretenue.

An Error of Fact and OF Policy.


l. Is common error Of prohibition
leaders 10 place on one eide Of an imagin'
airy line ell who favor constitutional pro-
hibition, and on Inc o:hsr side, aseremies
OF temperance and friends Of tho unre'
D!ric.sd sale Of liquor, all who do not favor
constitutional prohibition.
Tho error Of fact 10 gsEioug, foriE over
looks the well marked division Of public
sentiment on this important question. He
10 very dull who does not know that
gomo of the most earnest and effective
Temperance men in the country do not IA
vor prohibition, because they are not coz.
WINGED that /! will prove the best means Of
dealing with tho dangerous traffic.
Other temperance men 90 10. favor
prohibition, because they believe the
principle OF the thing to be wrong. Still
others cannot give their support to prohi-
bition because they regard it as relieving
the liquor traffic OF highly necessary
measure OF control. There Is tremendous
force pushing in the direction Of high
license aud local option.
To array oil thess clements ON the eide
of the liquor traffic is to m!ss:ats the facts,
to confuse terms and TO do injustice to
hundreds OF thousands OF honest men and
good cl!izsns-men as desirous as any
other men csn be to reduce to the very
minimum the bIIghting curno OF intern
persnce.
Tho error Of policy ia as ssrious as tho
error Of fact. However temperance men
may ba divided on the question Of prohi-
bihon, they should be united on the
higher question OF temperance. II We un-
dsrstand the question, prohibition Is only
a mesrs; temperance 10 the end. United
on the fundamental proposition, wsahould
SOS all these forces moving together.
They might evan bo found acting together
to exercise from politics the evil spirit Of
the whisky influence; and il, united, they
should succeed in this, they would have
gonc far toward clearing the way for other
raforms on the came limo.
The error Of policy appears further in
this, that prohibition, il written In the
Constitution, cannot execute itself, nor
can 1t be executed by the prohibitionis!s
unaided. To make even respectable
show Of enforcing prohibitOry law will
require tho combined efforts Of all the
prohibitiOnis!s and all those elements
which nov, by somO prohibition leaders,
are lightly placed on the side Of the liquor
traffic.

that Mr.. Blaine 10 8 defeated nominee,

Nobody believed, when Mrs Harnersly &C
cepted the dissolute duke of Marlborough for
her husband, that she was going to lead a life
of ideal happiness, but few ventured to pro-
phesy that the domestic upheaval would begin
as promptly as it has. Banned by the church,
stunned or snubbed by the better element in
society, and bounded by the creditors with
whom his notorious career as q spendthrift and
hbertine has surrounded him, the duke is not a
man who would naturally arouse an enthu-
siasm Of respect in the heart of the woman
he has made his wife. But she was
a person Of mature years when she accepted
his offer of marriage, and abundantly able to
guard herself against deception as to the con-
sequences of her act. In the barter of pot of
money for a somewhat damaged title there are
a number of secondary considerations which
neither party puts into writing, or otherwise
recognizes in formal manner, but which both
parties must accept, when disclosed, with as
good grace as possible. In the Hamersly- MARI
borough case there was no concealment, and
no attempt at any. What was known to the

This years campaign Of the winds and the
clouds against the earth has been characterized
both by the severity of the great assaults and
by the systematic regularity with which they
have been conducted. In January the first
great blizzard of the year froze and killed
earth's inhabitants. In March the memorable
spring assault was made. The summer blow
was struck in the shape Of the August cy-
clone. The autumn has been expected to furnish
an assault worthy to round out the extraordi-
nary campaign of 'ss. Yesterdays storm prob
ably fulills this expectation. Heavy SHOWS
and terrific winds in New England. with high
running waters and great damage to shipping
along the coast, entitle the storm to rank with
its predecessors of the year. Railway commu-
nication will probably be interrupted, and
cities will suffer as they deserve by the pros
tration Of electric wires permitted to remain
overhead. In Washington the fourth of the
big four of the storms Of 'sS reared very mildly.
