President is dragged away to Washington
What can be said of the scandals in the Land
Office, in the Indian Service, in the issue OF
pensions to men who had never made appica-
ton or fled the proofs required by law?
Men who want good government do not Sc
lect such an Administration as this rs chosen
instrument Of reform. Day by day the Pro
fessional Reformers are proving that THE
TRIBUNE was right in 1884 when it said that
their real object was free trade, and Reform
was only the thin and diaphanous disguise.

From The Albany Evening Journal.
Over week ago " The Journal copied from Tho
New York Tribune list OF l22 names of converts
from the Democracy to Harrison and protection Tho
Argus has since been trying 10 find errors In the
list and yesterday asserted that of tn, gentlemen
named Hyde, Of Poughkeepsic, VIII support the Dem
ocratlc ticket. Possibly Mr. Hyde wrongly
quoted, but II IS cold comfort for The Argus when
II IS obliged TO inferentally admit In making tho
correction. that the list SUI stantiaily correct
9Th, Argus recently stated that Nj. Green, of
Mcchancville, was wrongly quoted as convert to
protection. II appears that h. voted the whole Dem

Not single contest marked the Republican
primaries in this city yesterday This was not
because of lack of interest in politics, since
in several of the districts an uncommonly large
vote was cast. IL betokens a degree of har-
mony in the party that gives promise of the
best results as to the National, State and local
elections. The delegates chosen to the NOM
mating conventions are strong and representa-
tive. Especially will the County Convention
contain able members Of the party. On this

body is to devolve the important duty of
naming the winning ticket in the local contest.

Governor Hill made his bid for the labor
vote in {. speech at the Cooper Union last night
The special grievance Of laboring meh against
the Governor is his failure to sign the Electoral
Reform bill, and large part of his speech was
devoted to explaining and apologizing for his
course. There was little in his remarks than
is new. He insisted that he was in favor OF
electoral reform and quoted with approval the
plank of the Democratic State platform on tho
subject. which may mean something or moth
ing. He accused the Republicans of had faith
in passing the Saxton BILL and was especially
severe in his criticism of the proposition to
amend il after its enactment. Every reason
able man knows that in radical reform like
this perfection cannot be reached at single
bound. The Saxton bill was beginning, and
a good one.
For the citizens of New York this is the
first day of registration. In Brooklyn it is
the second day, and the last but one. The
final opportunity to register in that city will
be given on October 23. In New-York there
are three more days-October II, 26 and 81.
This is duty that cannot be neglected by any
one desiring to VOTE and it cannot prudently
be postponed. Let every Republican in these
two big cities improve the earliest opportunity.
Sickness, Absence pressing engagements or
other circumstances may interfere with yom
plans when the next day comes round. Don't
trust to the future. Act without delay. The
hours for registering in this city are from
a. m. to p. M, and the places will be found
by reference to the ninth, tenth and eleventh
pages of this issue of Tue TRIBUNE. In
Brooklyn the registration officers are on duty
from to 10 a. m. and from 8 to 10 p m.

MUCH TOO EARNEST.


1t is rather late In the day for G. Cleveland and
other Democrats To that they have ente,cd upon
no crusade for free trade They should have made
this statement some months agu to have any sensible
person believe It. They remind one of the lady
who protested too much.

all the same" as the most inveterate and undis-

land didn't begin to rally around Colonel Eel

An ENGLISH VIEW OF AMERICAN TEN
PERAkCE.

II is a credit to diplomatic methods, and
fact of considerable interest, that the best
summary now accessible of the laws regulating
the liauor traffic in the different States and
Territories of the Union is to be found In
document recently issued by the British For
cign Office, among its reports On SUBJECTS OF
general and commercial interest. This was
prepared under instructions from the Foreign
Office by the Hon. Henry G.. Edwardcs. Secrc-
tary OF Legation, at Washington, who presents
a compact statement not only OF existing legls-
lation. giving the text of laws, when they are
important. but also of pending legislation and
hills recently defeated besides the returns of
the revenue derived from the liquor traffic,
etc.. wherever they have been obtalnable,
This affords a comprehensive view OF the
status of the traffic which we have not had
thus far from any home source. This TACT Is
a credit to the thorough and Intelligent
methods of the British Government. and shows
desire for information upon the subject,
which may easily bear fruit in England. where
the liquor problem is more vcxatious, perhaps.
than it is here.
We print on another page some OF the con-
illusions reached by Mr.. Edwardes 1t will be
noticed that these bear strongly against tho
practicability of prohibition. He reaches this
Wow simply upon the merits Of the question.
