1.-THE TINES And GOVERNOR HILL.

1.-THE TINES" And GOVERNOR HILL
I "The New-York Tines Oem) with much
ostentation washes its hands of the official
leader of its party in this State. 1t pleads with
its fellow Democrats not to renominate David
B. Hill. 1t speaks of the Governor in terms Of
studied reproach 1t calls him " twO-penny
politician" 1t asserts that he holds his
magistracy no dearer than Doodle Alderman
holds his honor 1t charges him with " pay
ing his election expenses and rewarding his
favortes with money filched from the City OF
New York;
Il is clear from this that "The Tines has
an uncommonly poor opinion of Mr.. Hill. But
it by no means follows that, if the Governor
succeeds in securing denomination, thls par
ticular organ of the Democracy Will not do It's
best to re-elect him. Mr.. Hill may well say,
as he reads "The Times's'' attack upon him.
ooh. well. George Jones went for Cleveland
with equal severity in 1888, but that did not
prevent him from supporting him in 1881"
In 1888 1.-THE Tines accused Mr., Cleveland
of authorizing the robbery of the public on
a great scale.n 1t declared that he was willing
"to swindleo in order " to gain reputation
as \ reformer.o 1t sneered at his "humbug
pretensons" 1t referred to one of his official
acts as "the cheapest and scurvieSt trick of
even this very low-priced reformer" And
while it didn't call him " a two-penny states
man. it did name him ga parochial states
man."
Now then, here is the question: If "The
Times" after giving Grover Cleveland such
character in 1883 found no difficulty in com
ing out for him a few months later, shall ii
refrain from raIlying around the Standard of
David b. Hill this fall simply because it has
denounced him this summer?

TIE DECLINE OF BOULANGLSM

The first sequel to the Paris duel is a Radical
revolt from Boulangism. Five widely read
journals in the capita have supported the
movement. One Ct these, "Lanterneo an
nounces definitely that it has severed all con-
nection with the Generals cause Another,
France" which publishes editions in Bor-
deauX as well as Paris, also fOreshadows its
reputation of the movement. This will leave
the Intransigeant," the "COcarde" and the
"Presseo in the field as the organs of BOu-
langism, the first being NJ. Rochefort's journal
and the other two being of recent origin. An
other journal Of enormous circulation, the
Petit Parisen," which, without openly adj
vocating the Generals interests, has lent him
considerable aid indirectly, will probably be-
come neutral. VI. RocheGort, whose article in
the current number Of THE Fortnightly Re-
views shows how unequivocal has been his
support Of BOulangism, has probably gone too
far to retrace his steps; but as veteran duel
list he will be unable to conceal his contempt
for his leaders sword practice. The chief
Radical organs in any event have turned
against the General. The Conservative and
Reactionary prints will continue to shower COM
pliments upon him, but without Radical sup
port his movement will inevitably decline.
The significance of these assertions will APP
pear when it is borne in mind that while Mon
archists and Bonapanists in the Chamber of
Deputies have been voting for his appeal for
dissolution and revision, he has not ceased to
proclaim himself Radical of the Radicals.
1t was the Extreme Left which first brought
him into prominence from obscurity in the army
by promoting him to the War Office. NJ.
Clemenceau. NJ: Floquet and all the leaders Of
that faction became intimate with him, and stood
behind him in his struggle to remain in office
and to defy the political authority of Presi-
dents Grevy and Carnot. NJ. Clemenceau speed
lily perceived his inordinate ambition and aban-
doned him to his fate. All the more moderate
and cautious men Of that faction turned against
him when he declared war upon Parliamentary
ism and the existing parties. The Extremists
and Socialists remained faithful to him. and
were able to muster n great army OF voters in
recent Department elections The action Of
the most influential Boulangist organs since
the duel shows that the remnant Of his Radical
support is now divided. The General may re-
peat his protests that he is the friend Of lib
erty and not its eXecutioner; that he is
patriot, whose sword is at the service of his
country against foreign aggcssors, and not
consDirator aiming 10 bring about new Bru-

marie by Bonapartist coup detat; but with
his Radical supporters DESERVING him on every
side and with the organized enemies OF repub-
lican institutions leagued together in his in
terest. the real character of his political mis-
sion is revealed.
NJ. Floquet's increased reputation and au-
thority in consequence of the duel will con-
tribute powerfully to precipitate the downfall
of this political adventurer. So long as VI.
Ferry remained the most prominent figure on
the Republican side Boulangism could make an
effective use of the reckless expeditions in
Madagascar and Tonquin, which had been Or
ganized for the benefit of Opportunist spec
ulators and mercenary Deputies. and had ex
cited bitter resentment throughout France.
The Republican losses in the last general cleo
tons were caused mainly by that barren pol
icy of adventure, bloodshed and ruinous ex-
pense. The country revolted against NJ. Ferry
and Opportunism. But owing TO his superior
capacity as politician he has remained most
conspicuous figure in public life. VI. Floquet
as Premier has been dependent upon NJ. Ferry's
support, and would have been turned ont of
office long ago if Bouangism had not compelled
the Republican factions to unite temporarily.
The Premier now becomes a greater leader
than NJ Ferry, and he will have no share of the
unpopularity which arose from the Opportunist
foreign policy. Boulangism is now pitted
against Republicansm under NJ. Floquet
consistent Radical, who cannot be held re-
sponsble for the Tonquin campaign. with
this change of Republican leadership BOu
Iangism will be placed at disadvantage.
