sttsmpt n made to paliats the obnoz-
io,,s aspect Of this feature In b syes
OF LIQUOR dealers by providing compensation
for the loss Of licenses. But such an arrange
ment would at best only indemnify the re-
taller; II would leave the brewer and distillsr
without any amends for the loss Of custom
ers. Until, therefore. the wholesale dealers
have made up their minds regarding the ul-
innate effect Of tho bill upon their business,
no man can foreteIl what stand the British
liquor interest may ultimately take. I'm
auestionably the publicans, who have In
their day o~verthrown Ministries supposed to
rest on q homogeneous and strong majority.
can, II they choose. make short work Of Lord
SAbrsBuRY.
Now that We know that, under the new
scheme Of local government, county boards,
chosen by what IL almost tantamount TO
universal suffrage, arc to have absolute con-
troll over the constabulary, we can under
stand the Tory motive for excluding Ireland
from privileges offered to all the rest OF tho
United Kingdom. But the men nowin ONCE
seem to overlook tho fact that they are e.
tablishing . precedent which will estop them
from complaining. Il, when Mr.. GLADSTONE
returns to power, he subjects tho Irish police

| mitteo of q Dublin Parliament.

soluteiy decreased, while the Democratic
city districts have marked O steady gain:

Taking the probable vote OF q Presiden-
tia year as the basis, the seven cities have
gained 10000, and tho town and country
districts have lost $4,000. q considerable
amount OF this decline being traceable to
the Prohibition party, which was considered
to have made a great squirt when 1t cast
10000 votes for MyRoN II. CLARK In 1874,
but which gave 1900 for ST. JOHN In
1884, and nearly $4,000 for HUNTINGTON,
the Prohibition candidate, last No
vember. The larger number OF these
came from rural constituencies where
tho Republican party has been par
t~icularly strong. Thus, q county K Ale
9hany. which Is almost wholly agricultural,
gave BLAINE just II votes less than HAYES,
and CLEVELAND but las votes more than
TrIDEN in . total Of 10000. But ST. JOHN
received In Allegheny 1,1sO votes, and last
November tho Prohibitionists had 1882.
30 strong and 30 steady Is the increase OF
Democratic strength In the large cities OF the
State that 1t Is no longer necessary for the
party to cater unreasonably to tho prejudices
Of Q few special voters. Tho withdrawal from
tho lists Of candidates Of JAMES g. BLAINE
removes from the Republican side tho one
leader OF that party who has over devel-
oped any strength In the large cities, and 1t
leaves FREQ and clear tho course OF the De-
mocracy tonominate candidate OF It's choice
without Mugwump dictation. A failure to
utilize this natural political advantage in
1883 might restore stability to the Re-
publican organization In tho largo
| cities of the State where now that
~party-notably in New York, Brooklyn,
and Rochester-is utterly demoralized and
disrupted. But with Q strong and sterling
| Democratic candidate running on the lines
drawn In the HMn-DAvENPoRT canvass Of
1886, and continued In the State contests Of
1885 and Of 1887, tho cities now dominant
will roll up such Democratic majorities as
they have never given before.

Tho Shame Of It.

The examination Of the Reading of1cials
at Philadelphia is a disgrace to the Fiftieth
Congress. Never was there u moro shame
less prostitution Of the Federal power to tho
ends OF dishonest traffic. We do not impugn
the course OF the Congressional Investigating
committee on the general ground Of its be-
pressive, but We boldly and openly proclaim
Its dishonesty and its corruption.
The committee presents the aspect OF o
bodyof meRwho have, secured to themselves
alicense from the Government to descend
upon Wall strset IN conspiracy with the
worst elements It contains. The sessions OF
the committee had not been an hour in prog
ress when the mask was cast aside, and tho
stock speculation stood revealed. 1t was no
longer a question Of the strike in the mining
regions, but Of a strike in the stock market
in New York.
AND never were rogues more summarily
dealt with or worse c%onfounded h were
these rogues from Washington. h un-
foreseen% happened, and when their progress
In smashing values was at its height, when
the kilograms to sell Reading and the coal
ers short were flying to New York, when
question after question Of vile ingenuity and
unblushing impudence was piled upon the
chief witness, when his answers were distort-
cd by the sophisticated differences and i'm
plications OF his questioner, then the dis
aster came like q thunderbolt from a clear
sky. In answer to the Congressional batter,
the President Of the Reading Company let
fall the information that the strike was
ended.
One hundred and forty-seuen thousand shares
of Reading stock changed hands before three
o'clock on Friday. For the Washington con-
tingent on Wall street it was a Black Fri
day. Not hat their plans were laid with
insufficient skill, not that their determine
ton was unequal to any game, however des-
perate; but because, as we have said, the un-
expected happened. The frail occasion and
excuse of their radcliffe strike Of the Read
ing miners and train hands, was swept away.
and they were undone. Holz
The committee Of Congress is disgraced.
and 1t Is Q disgrace to tho country. No self
respecting and honest-minded citizen can
read tho story Of Fridays doings at Phila-
delphia and not blush for very shame.

PALMER would make an admirable candi-
date. He Is In favor Of prohibition, not for
himself, as we understand it, but for the
benefit of others. and especially of the Re-
publican party. He believes that his party
should take advanced ground on the tenn
perance question-advanced enough to sat
isfy the forlorn hopes OF the Prohibitionists
and yet not advanced enough to invite the
fire of the German Republicans. We will

Blaine for Senator.

There arc grave objections to the Oft
urged idea Of providing ex-Presidents with
seats for life In the United States Senate.
No such objection applies to the case Of a
statesman and party leader like Mr.. BLAINE,
who, having thrice been a candidate for the
Presidential nomination and once his party's
candidate at the polls. has finally renowned
the ambition to reach the White House.
Mr.. BLAINE's place henceforth is in the
Senate, He should have a seat In that body
for Life, or for as long as his willingness and
ability to serve the country and his party
endure.
HENRY CLAY, to whose public career that
OF Mr.. BLAINE bears In certain respects q
striking resemblance. ven back to the SEN
ate after having served once as Secretary OF
State and having been three times defeated
In his ambition to be President.
There is a vast deal Of work left in Mr..
BLAINE. He Is not the sort Of man to retire
pfeniaturely to a life Of inactivity. His rest
less and original intellect will keep him busy
while life and health last. We take 1t that
Mr.. BLAINE has sufficiently gratifed his
taste for historical research and compost
ton, and likewise that he soon will have e1-
haustsd the interest Of foreign travel. He
will cenis home Before Iong.a He will not al
low his distinguished abilities forrest, or his
splendid vitality to burn itself gray for lack
of fuel and oxygen. The logic OF circum-
stances indicates that no will once again en-
gago actively In politics. in the larger sense
Of tho word; and there Is no doubt that the
United States Senate affords the proper field
for his future activity.
Why, MI. BLAINE Is only tlfty-elRht years
and a few days old this morning.
We do not affirm that any new office, such
as that OF Senator-at-large or Senator-for.
life. should be created for Mr.. B1AINE's bene.
At. He ought to be sent back to the Senate
In the regular way. Tho people Of Maine
should mako 1t their duty to attend to
this. IA for the present Senators from
Maine, Mr.. HALE and Mr.. FRYE. they
both W SO much to their greater
fellow citizen and party chieftain that
we rather expect 70 end them in q SHARP
quarrelJ6sl the houor Of ~resisning to make
room for him. Mr.. FRyE's term ends first
but that fact should not be allowed to count
to Mr.. HALK's disadvantage In the generous
and loyal rivalry.
Mr.. BLAINE we say, Is barely fifty-eight
He ought to serve at least three full terms ir
the Senate before he begins to feel old enough
toTctire from public life.

Tho Voting Power OF tho areat Cities

Tho Voting Power Of tho Great Cities.
The Democracy of the State Of New York,
strengthened, animated, and sustained by
the triumphs Of 1887, solicited and kept har-
monious by tho administration Of Governor
HILL, and encouraged by cheering evidences
of wiser ~counsels In Washington, has less
reason this year than over before to depend
on . handful Of Nugwump recruits or frag-
mont Of free trade %pretenders, for success
In the State whose electoral vote decided the
Presidential result in 1880 and 1884, and seems
likely to provo similarly potent In 1885.

was 1,o11, 15s. OF this the seven chief cities of
the state-New York. Brooklyn. Buffalo. Al
bany. Rochester. Troy, and syracuse-gave
845, b69, or about So per cent. OF tho whole
number; but such was Mr.. TnDEN's popu-
larity with the farmers. and 30 strong his
hold on the Democrats Of the large cities, that
he carried tho State by 8 5000.
In 1880 GARYIKID and HANCOCK had In New
York a combined vote Of 1.090.05b, . gain Of
about 10000 over the previous Presidential
election. OF this gain $4,000 was In tho vote
of the cities, and but $4,000 In the vote OF tho
country and township districts.
In 1884. In q most animated contest,
the combined vote for CLEVELAND and
BLAINE was 1,125, 049. q gain over 1880 Of
5000. OF this gain $4,000 was made In the
seven cities and only 10000 outside.
In 1885, whom DAVID BENNETT HILL, In o
straisht-out Democratic fight, and without
Mugwump or special FREQ trade support,

York, tho total vote was 992.098, and Of this
the seven cities contributed s9S. $50.
