Roscoe Conkling was among the last of
the Stalwarts, OF the conspicuous members
of that section of the Republican party
which was devoted to the political fortunes
of Ulysses S. Grant but few now remain.

of the Hudson nearly three years ago. Pre-
ceding or following their great chieftain to

sets Oliver p Morton and Schuyler Col

Donald G.--of Pennsylvania; Hannibal
Hamlin, of Maine and George S. Boutwell,,

like a chapter Of ancient history. And yet
scarcely dozen years have passed since the

The General Methodist Conference which
began in New York yesterday bids fair to be
one of the most important meetings in the
history of the denomination, and its proceed
ings will be watched with interest all over
the country, by members of all religious
bodies. On the threshold of the meeting the
conference is likely to be met by the ques-
ton of the admission of women as lay dele
gates. 1t bids fair to be one of the great
issues which the conference viii have to
settle. Already it has been made the SUBJ
ject of much discussion in local Methodist
conventions and in the journals of the de-
nomination. While the proposition to admit
women has strong advocates, it has also
equally strong opponents; and the debate on
the matter will be led pro and con by the
ablest minds in the denomination. Dr. j. w.
Hamilton will champion the cause of the
women while Dr. j. NJ. Buckley win lead
the opposing forces. Miss Willard and four
other women will present their credentials
and ask to be seated. Then the debate will
begin. Miss Willard herself will no doubt
be found brilliantly and effectively adyocat-
ing her own cause. 1t is impossible to pre-
diet with any degree Of certainty what the
outcome of this contest will be. The more
conservative members of the denomination
view the proposed innovation with alarm
and the Bishops are said to be opposed to it;
but it commands a large and enthusiastic
body of advocates.
Another matter of less importance, but
which will give rise to an animated contro-
versy will be the demand that Bishop Taylor,
who now has jurisdiction only as mission
AIRY bishop, shall be raised to an equality
with ordinary bishops. This demand will
be hotly pressed as simple act of Justice to
Bishop Taylor An attempt will be made
also to restrict each bishop to a particular
jurisdiction. instead of sending them all over
the country as now.

What is known as the ''plan of campaign"
is an arrangement under which dissatisfied
Irish tenants, instead of paying their rents
to their landlord, or his agents, pay such
part of them as they deem just into the
hands of third party, who acts as trustee,
and seeks to effect settlement. The mean
ing of "boycotting" is too well known to
require statement. The Apostolic See hay
ing been asked if in its opinion it is permits.
sble for Irish tenants to make use of these
two weapons, replies in the negative. 1t
must be confessed that considered purely as
moral questions 1t is difficult to dissent from
the findings of the Apostolic See. The plan
of campaign" necessarily involves the viola
ton of contract by one party TO it without
the consent by the other, something that is
iustifable only when the contract is Of an inn
moral character. Boycotting is an attempt
to coerce by threatening injury to the per-
son or property of the person DOycotted, and
is obviously immoral. But both of these
weapons have come to be regarded in Ire
land as purely political weapons, and the
employment of them has been defended
on the ground that they are the only
weapons which an oppressed people had
to fight their oppressors with. That has
seemed to the Irish people a sufficient
justification for their use. The declaration
of the Holy See may somewhat restrict
their employment, but being simply dec
larations and accompanied with no penalty
in case of non-obedience, the probability is
that their effect will be very slight except
upon the priesthood. Doubtless they will be
sufficient to restrain them from active par
ticipation in, or public endorsement of, the
''plan of campaign" in the future, but their
sympathies are likely to remain where they
have been, with the Irish tenants.

College Athletics.

The committee of the Board of Overseers
| of Harvard College have been examining the
condition OF Athletic sports in the college,
and the result of the examination has been
the conclusion that ''to remedy the existing
evils it is necessary TO prohibit all inte--col-
legiate contests and to place the supervision
of athletic exercises in the university itself
under the control of committee in which
the faculty shall have stronger influence"
The students have not been heard from in
this question, which is one that vitality af-
fects the sports to which so much college
spirit has been given, and from which so
much college pride has been derived. But
collegs spirit and pride have carried the stu
| dents to extremes, and they will probably so
| acknowledge. 1t was pointed out to the
| committee of the overSeers that during the
| last college year there were "a athletic con-
tests of different kinds, "a of which took
| place out of Cambridge. OF intercollegiate
! contests alone there are more than one
week on an average during the college year,
and if matches with other amateur organiza-
tiens are added the average is very nearly
two week. The time that these contests
took absorbed not only the students leisure,
but more. The expense, a matter which the
oyerseers may not have taken 50 seriously
into account, and which, among the rich
young men of Harvard may not be severely
felt, is very great, reaching an aggregate
which might well brighten prudent parent
into sending his son to some humber institu-
ton. In an article published last simmer,
Professor Sargent, the instructor in gymnas-
tics for Harvard, estimated that fifteen thou
sand dollars is expended annually in bring
ing the Yale and Harvard boat crews togeth-
er at New London, while the yearly expenses
of the athletic organizations of the two uni
versties would not, in his opinion, fall under
fifty thousand dollars. The Harvard over
seers have, no doubt, weighed these facts be-
fore coming to the conclusion that the facul-
ty had better take a hand in the athletics Of
the university.

In Michigan General Alger is getting up
considerable steam as a Presidential candi-
date. Outside of Michigan his chief support
seems to come from Arizona, where Alger
delegates have been elected, and from Mrs.
Logan, who would like to see him President
because he was General Logan's friend.
This is a sort of support that may not figure
for much on the floors of the Chicago con-
vention, but it will bring General Alger lots
of good wishes If not many votes.
