behalf: he has not written any letter
declining the nomination a second time.
and it is not true that he will be on the
ocean and out of the reach of the tele-

to remain abroad two years, but feared
he would not be able to do so. would
not be surprised to hear he was

would stay away until next year.
No time has as yet been fixed for his

that since the declination there has
been growing sentiment among Re-

the leadership of the party in the next

The Sultan and His Musicians,

1t is told that one day the sultan, in an
hour Of idleness, called for soft music, and
babe his court pianist play a polka. The
latter, thinking to please his sovereign more,
sat down at the instrument and thumped out
the Imperial march with all due energy and
fervor. Not word escaped the lips of the
sovereign, and the pianist never gave the
matter thought until that evening, when
messenger from Yildiz informed him that the
sultan had no further need Of his services.
In other words, he was cashiered-deprived
of his appointment, his house and a salary of
$1,000 year.
Another time, during pantomime at the
Court theatre at Yildiz, Dussap Pacha played
the Imperial march while a jibbering jackass
prayed and pranced about the stage. The
sultan was furious at hearing his own sacred
and particular march played as an accom-
paniment to the dancing of a common
donkey, and he dismissed poor Dussap on the
spot The penitent Pacha was, however,
afterward restored to imperial favor, as the
whole affair proved to be nothing more than
a court intrigue to work his disgrace.-New

Transient Efrects of Lynch law.


do not believe that lynch law has the
salutary effect that a judicial hanging exer-
cises on the criminaily inclined. The guilty
wretch who is hustled into eternity by the
former process is rarely given time to realize
the awful fate in store for him, and not until
the moose is around his neck does the awful
horror Of hopelessness dawn upon the hard
ened criminal. The murderer executed le-
gally has ample time to gain complete reali-
cation of the fact that on 8 certain day be
will be deliberately taken out to the gallows
and hanged by the neck until he Is dead. In
the majority of cases it is talked about,
printed in the newspapers, and carries with it
warning to the hardened that has ample
time to engraft itself upon the mind and act
as an everlasting reminder of the command
ment, 'sThou shalt not kill"
In the case of 9 lynching, morbid interest
is awakened for brief period, but quickly
dies cut, leaving scarcely trace behind.
Let any ono mako tho comparison and
ne will be satisfied with the truth Of this
proposition. If he would endeavor to recol-
lect who had been lynched during the past
would find it difficult to recollect details.
But could be recount the particulars of many
year be could call to mind very few cases and
hangings occurring during the period named.

president of the convention. 1t was set i'll
the high party key, but such a speech in
Democratic convention, showing SO just
sense of what at least party must now be
believed to be in order to hope for success,
has been hitherto unheard. 'Harper's Week
ly" has not disguised its regret and disap
pointment at the course of the President III
regard to cIvil-service reform. Had he been
more firm and consistent he would in our
judgment have been stronger in the can
yass. But while we have frankly acknowl-
edged that his administration could not be
called distinctively q reform administra-
ton, we have pointed out the falsity and
injustice of the charge that nothing has
been accomplished. Very much has been
accomplished. The President has purified
the political atmosphere, and the increas-
ing interest in the question and the de-
mand for reform have been stimulated and
confirmed by his known conviction and
desire. No man who has the reform at
heart can regret that Mr.. Blaine was de-
feated, nor anticipate that any candidate
who is likely to receive the Republican
nomination would advance the reform.
The course of the Republican convention
will be awaited with great interest. That
the candidate of 1884 is still the undoubted
spontaneous choice of the party is not
good augury, because it shows the infu-
ence which will probably predominant in
its action. That the general tone and aim
of the party are more encouraging than
they were four years ago nowhere appears.
The Republican leadership is not reas-
surfing. There is no commanding figure
among the probable candidates, and the
inspiration of the convention will be APP
parently hatred of Mugwumps and devo-
ton to Mr.. Blaine. The convention, how
ever, may wisely reflect that there was
never greater independence Of party names
than now. It was that force which decided
the election in 1884, and it will be much
more extensive and powerful in 1888.
Moreover the conservative indisposition to
change without strong reasons-a disposI-
ton which is most effective in the business
world-will favor the reelection of the
President. But the result of the contest
cannot be yet forecast. How effective will
be the scare of free trade and low wages,
and how extensive the Irish and other DEM
ocratic detection, remain to be proved.
The democrats completed their work by
the nomination of Mr.. Thurman for the
vice-presidency. Except for his age. this
would be the best selection they could
have made. Mr. Thurman is universally
respected as an upright and able man, and
there is no democrat in the country who
enjoys higher regard among his political
opponents. The sturdy honesty of the
two democratic candidates, and the free
dom of the ticket from all faint of Doodle,
will compel the republicans to take care
that no suggestive contrast shall be offered
by their ticket There can be no doubt
that the democrats open their campaign
with union and confidence which they
have not shown for many year."

THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
A SIGNIFICANT ARTICLE FROM CHARGERS
WEEKLY"

It will be remembered that "Harper's
Weekly" in the campaign of 1884 repre-
scented that class of Republican journals
who despairing of betterment in the Repub-
lican administration of the government,
supported Cleveland, and as a matter of
fact cast the decisive vote of New York for
him. In its issue last week it has signi-
ficant editorial on ''The denomination of
Cleveland" which we give below:
''In 1884, upon refusing to support the
Republican nomination. Harper's Weekly
said that the great objects of the Republi-
can party were honest and economical
administration, peaceful and honorable
foreign relations, the progressive purifica-
ton of the public service at home, wise
reduction of the revenue, and that sense of
general security which springs from the
moral elevation of the administration.
Finding no promise of the advancement of
such objects to the Republican nomination,
it declined to support it. But these OBJ
jects, with the exception of that degree of
reform in the civil service which it desired,
have been largely promoted by the admin
istration of Mr.. Cleveland, and mainly by
his personal influence. The retention of
Mr.. Garland as Attorney General after the
Pan-Electric developments certainly did
not enhance the character of the admins
tration, although it was his discretion and
sense of official propriety rather than per-
sonal honesty which were involved. But
the general character of the administration
is not in this sense open to reproach.
With the exception mentioned, the unan-
Of Nv CIaua1o1I
not forecast any executive departure from
the prosecution of the objects which we
then described as of paramount Importance
and this journal sees no reason to regret
the action which it then took. The demo-
cratic party in renominating the President
merely ratifies the verdict of the country
upon his general course. Indeed, to have
hestated or to have set him aside would
have been to declare that magistrate SO
acceptable did not represent his party, and
party capable of such folly would have
been overwhelmed. The democratic party
owes very much more to Mr. Cleveland
than TO any other leader OF this generation,
for he alone has removed from it that stig-
ma of profound distrust and alarmed ap-
prehension which justly attached to 1t for
so many of the most critical years of our
history. He has impressed the country as
an upright patriot of conservative temper
ament and of wise but not Quixotio Or fac
titious courage, who, while of course a
party man, seeks Arst the public welfare
through his party, and who, while yield
ing upon some points to an evil pressure,
has upon the whole commanded his party
by character and courage, giving it dis
tirct policy, dispensing serious party OPP
position, uniting it as no leader since the
was has been able to unite it, and receiving
denomination without whisper of dis
sent, and by enthusiastic reclamation
