wAsu1NeToN,s POLITICAL FAITH.

In -to.morow's anniversary, II will be
well for the American people to look at
the reasons why Washington was first
in peace las well as war; and first in
the hearts of his countrymen"-the last
proposition being proved by the unani-
nous heart-suli'rages of his country. In
truth, his political wisdom was more CON
spicuous in those days than the accepted
historians of the country have allowed 1t
to be SINCE; so that, latterly few or none
look upon him as a statesman or political
philosopher.
We have, for print on Saturday, state
ment or digest of Washington's view of
our federal system, prepared by the author
of "The Republic Of Republics" who has
made the history and philosophy of the
Union which he reveres, q long and anx-
ious study, the result of which is found
in said work.
This digest will be revelation and q
surprise TO the most of readers, showing,
as IL does, from the illustrious patriots
own statements Of fact and principle, that
he may have been the Gamaliel at whose
feet jefferson sat, and that the truths (but
not the fallacies) of 1850, with which
the latter is credited, are mostly, If not
all, found in the record of the former.
And II sustains one of Jellerson's asser.
tions, viz, that he and Washington were
in their views almost always in accord,
and that, generally, when they differed,
an eclaircissemeat brought them together.
From Washingtons supereminence at
the time of forming the federal Union
from the universal and profound respect
felt for his wisdom and goodness from
his intimate association and correspond
ence with all the leading men of the
country during the whole federalising
movement, and from his presiding over
the grand convention of States, and his
probable action therein, it is easy TO be-
lieve that his influence and share in
forming our federal system were un-
rivaled.

LEGISLATION THAT will secure to the

building will meet universal approval.
An everlasting quarrel about location
suits nobody; but we are unalterably
opposed to any proposition that does
not contemplate the erection of a
building of original architectural de-
sign, that shall not only be striking
ornament to the city, but the model
postofiice of the country. Some SEN

The remark is occasionally made,
that so long as Mr.. Cleveland is GER
tain to be renominated in any event,
it can make no particular difference
where the Democrats hold their Ma
tional Convention; but this is only
true in part.
So far as the election is concerned,
months afterward, it may be Of no
material moment, but in the choice of
candidates, locality sometimes cuts
an important figure, and it must be
recollected that the same unanimity
with which Mr.. Cleveland seems
likely to be called upon to again be-
come the standard bearer of the party,
does not exist with regard to the
second place on the ticket.
II will therefore devolve upon the
committee in its selection of a place
for holding the convention to take
into consideration, not 50 much the
assurances Of generous hospitality,
moderate charges, spacious accommo-
dations, and good time generally, in
which the various aspirants to the
high distinction are endeavoring to
outbid each other, as the comparative
advantages which the different local
tiles suggested present in a political
sense, as bearing upon the interests of
the party and its better campaign
organization.
In the opinion of not few sagacious
politicians it would be wise to call the
convention at indianapolis. 1t is of
lar more Importance to the party that
the somewhat demoralized Democracy
OF Indiana should be placated than
that its delegates should be wined and
dined to no practical purpose in New
York or San Francisco.
The outlook is not so rose-colored
that the Democratic party can safely
afford to turn its convention into a
grand National Junket.

Chicago has the prestige of having
nominated Cleveland in 1884 st.
Louis the far greater prestige of hay
ing nominated Samuel ]. Tilden in
1876, and both these great cities oc-
cupy commanding positions towards
the doubtful States of Illinois and In
diana. Cincinnati is queenly city,
but has no great amount of prestige to
bank on.
st. Louis, Chicago, Cincinnati-all
are admirably provided with facili-
ties for accommodating great political
gatherings, and one of the three,
more than the other\ two, is best
adapted by virtue of its peculiar To-
cality to promote the great political
ends in view.
II is hardly worth while to go to
San Francisco this time if the object
simply be to visit the Chinese quar-
Ter of that city and pass an anti-immi-
grafton resolution or insert new tariff
plank in the Democratic platform.
This can be done in one place as wei
as another if expedient to be done at
all. Let the trip to the Golden Gate
be postponed to 1892.
II New York is not to be the battle
ground for first place between rival
candidates, it were better for Mr..
Cleveland, as the conceded nominee,

with the honor than to take it there
But in case the National Committee
find the question unexpectedly COM
plicated and embarrassing, there is
one city to be preferred over all the
rest, where conflicting interests of
whatever character may be readily
harmonizedj where the Junes are de-
licious, the hotels big enough. the
people hospitable, the ground thor
oughly non-partisan and neutral.
That is the National Capital.
If the committee select Washing
ton, we are authorized, in the name
Of her enterprising citizens to guar

room as it can possibly need, with
every appointment essential to the
convenience of its sittings and re-
ception in all respects as hearty and
wholesouled as was ever extended to
a conYsntion anywhere.
If it be objected that Washington
is too near the Administration 1t is
safe to assert that Mr.. Cleveland will
put as great a distance between him
self and the convention on that occa-
sion as he proposes to do between
himself and the committee on this
one.

Importance than some members seem
to think that this change be made.
The arguments in its favor are not
sentimental, as frequently remarked;
it is of historical appropriateness.
Nothing but usage warrants the inau-

of March. Itshould be invested with
an anniversary character, ,commemora-
tive of the beginning of our Consti-
tutional Government under its first
Chief Magistrate. The season is also
much more suitable, and now that the
people are more and more coming to
look forward to the installation of a
new President as an event in which
they are all interested and all desire
to participate, this consideration is
entitled to great weight. AS the Cen
