HAMPTON TO WANAMAKER.

That was stingiug rebuke which the
venerable and chivalric Senator WADE
HAMPTON administered to the pious fraud
of the postoffice department, JOHN WANA-
MAKER, recently. 1t seems that the psalm
singing official had promised Mr.. HAMPTON
that no change should be made in the Co
lumbia South Carolina) postofice without
consulting him, he being the senior Senator
from that state; relying on this promise,
Mr.. HAMPTON informed the present incum-
bent of the postotfice accordingly and gave
his additional assurance that he need not
trouble himself about something else to do
right away, or words to that effect. Well,
no sooner had Mr.. HAMPTON gone to his
plantation than WANAMAKER, with a true
Republican instinct, went back on all that
he had said and had new man assigned 10
the Columbia postofice This put the Sen
ator on his metal and he dressed the Phar-
isaical cabinet officer down in a manner
that is truly refreshing in this day Of
fawning sycophancy and cowardice.
The most singing part of HAMPToN's
letter to WANAMAKER is well worth repro
ducing. After announcing that hereafter
he will know better than to trust in prom
Uses from such source, the Senator says
1.-THE newspapers state that, besides
managing the great department over
which you preside, you are running Sun
day school in Philadelphia, and it occurs to
me that you might, with profit to yourself,
select as most appropriate subject of a
lecture to your pupils the instructive story
of ANANIAs and SAPHIRA. This may give
you a fine field for your eloquence in ex-
planning to your ungrateful charges the
Importance of combining themselves to the
truth-except when some fancied advan-
tage might be obtained over political op-
ponent."
The English language, if ransacked and
in the hands of the most capable literary
expert, could hardly be made productive of
anything more 1ncisive or more fitting.
Truly, the ways of pious humbugs and
political shysters are becoming more con-
spicuous every day. A few more breaks
like the one cited will make the postmaster
generals position worth every cent of the
$500, 900 which it cost him.

THE BRAZILIAN REPUBLIC.

This is an age of startling and grand
events, some of them being evolved SO
quickly that we fail to fully grasp their
Importance and full meaning because of
the suddenness with which they are
thrust upon US. The latest, and in some
if not all respects, one of the greatest
events of recent times is the unannounced
and almost unexpected civil revolution in
Brazil, brief telegram concerning which
appeared in the Geographic columns Of
THE HERALD yesterday morning. AL
though the news came in roundabout
way, it bears the impress of genuine
ness upon it and is supported
by well-known previously existing
conditions, among them being the capabil
ity of the people for popular government
and the willingness of the Emperor to con
cede it whenever the proper time should
seem to have arrived.
This movement takes from American soil
the last remaining crown and places the
whole of South and Central America and
all of North America except the British
possessions, under republican rule. OF
course Patagonia is not included in this
statement, because it has no government of
any kind. But just think of it, And think
of a mass of republics over here in
the new world extending from near
the northern limit of the northern
temperate zone to the far frigid
regions of the south, with the assurance
that before the present generation passes
away the line will be unbroken from the
arctic to the antartic circles!
Of the deposed Emperor, DOM PEDRO II,
all that can be said of generous character
of sovereign can be said of him. He has
never sought to go beyond his constitu-
tional limits, has not, in fact, unless when
some formal exposition of authority was
required, gone up to the limit. Except in
form his has been a popular government
throughout, and the change from one to
the other was therefore easily and natur-
ally accomplished, and, we doubt not
without serious commotion. In addition,
the Emperor has always been most
genial and altogether admirable man, hav-
ing the simplest of habits and the best Of
dispositions, as all know who had the pleas
ure of meeting him when in Salt Lake a
little over thirteen years ago. Whatever
else may betide, all who know him or of
him will heartily wish him well now and
hereafter

PRETTY CLOSE FOR ONCE.

That the majority of the Republican
the facts; that the greater part of the re-
mainder is so biased by rank partisanship
that it cannot or will not learn of facts as
they are, is also well understood. A con-
spicuous instance Of sheet possessing all
the weaknesses of all the papers on that
side of the line is the Globc-D Democrat, of St.
Louis, Mo. In it's issue of the 18th instant
it contained the following morsel Of
''news:"
The Mormons have been encouraged to such
an extent by the success of their Democratic
allies in some of the recent elections that they
have renewed their raid on the public school
system of Salt Lake city. They are endeavoring
to reduce the number of districts in the town. so
as to GUST enough OF GentlleS from the school
board to make Mormon control over that body
urdlSputed and absolute. 1t is the old political
gerrymander scheme of the Democrats applied
by the polygamous friends to other conditions.
Both MormonS and Democrats have found the
public school system q foe to their pretenSions
and existence and both have tried to cripple it;
but the schools, nevertheless, will triumph over
all their enemies
The fact that the ''raid" was commenced a
good while before the late elections in the
east took place; that no sooner were they
over than the local authorities were en-
Joined from proceeding further in that di-
rection; and that it was no 'raid'' at all
all these are against the G.-D.'s position,
but what of that? 1t has come much nearer
the truth than it usually does, in the fore
going extract, so let it enjoy it's happiness
undisturbed.

SOME TINE ago the editor of Zion's Herald
addressed the following question: What
is it to be a Christian!" to many repre-
sentative men in the religious world, EN-,
bracing persons of great diversity in re-
ligious thought and work. Four columns
of replies are printed in a recent issue OF
the Herald, and great majority of then
express the opinion that iG is characte
more than creed which makes the Christian

tation of the Savior lies the way to true
Christianity. Among the letters are some

THE PEOPLES party seem to be quite sat
isfed with the action Of Liberal campaign
ers in court the past week. In fact, they
might well afford to pay Mr.. LIPpMAN, the
Hebraic catspaw which began the roasting
of exploded chestnuts before the judicial
fire, something handsome for his services.
Imagine Utah youth with soul so dead
whose cheeks would not redden with indig-
nation ct the suggestion of his father having
bound himself by terrible oaths to commit
the most hideous crimes in vengeance
against the government which that same
father has always taught him to venerate
and Lowell And when such indignation
ripens into the full knowledge that the
whole thing was trumped up in wicked
but abortive attempt to lessen the votes Of
the Peoples party, if that youth ever had
a suggestion of Liberalism about him he
will be apt to bury it fathoms deep in the
maelstrom of forgetfulness. Gentlemen Of
the Liberal city central commettee, you
have overshot the mark.

THE IOWA SENATORSHIP.

The Republicans have small majority
in the Iowa legislature, and by pulling to-
gether can elect the United States Senator.
Fortunately for Iowa and for the country
there are indications that there is not to
be a pulling together to elect Senator
ALLISON as his own successor. The gen
tleman has had the party, and consequently
the state, in his trousers pocket, and he is
now desperate to learn that Iowa has
escaped from him. The ridiculous
feature of the situation is the claim
that enough Democrats to elect will
take the place of the Republicans
who are tired of ALLIsoN's dictation. If
this is true, we wonder why any Demo
Gratis were chosen. But it is not true. An
Iowa Democrat who would vote for ALL
SON for any office, could get the nomina-
ton for no position, the Senator being re-
garded as Democracy's most pronounced
and uncompromising enemy. If the Demo
Gratis in the legislature are wise, they will
make no bargains with Republicans. Trad
ing in politics is bad in principle, and al
most invariably is attended with bad
results. Whenever Democrats have
combined with Republican faction
and elected one Republican to prevent the
election of another, they have regretted it
and been sorry that the other man was not
chosen. The successful one has always re
pudiated his promises, and turned against
those who placed faith in him. The Iowa
Democrats may not be able to choose Sen
ator, but they can be true to themselves
and their party, and escape the reproach of
having sent to the Senate a man who, as
soon as he is firmly in his seat, will take
pains to show that he hates Democrats with
a bitterness and intensity equal to that
shown by his partisan associates.

THE AMERICAN BOY.
His Irreverence as Well as His Generosity
 Illustrated by Two Anecdotes.

His Irreverence as Well as His Generosity
 Illustrated by Two Anecdotes.
 J. T. Trowbridge, in an article in the North American Review, both criticises and praises the American boy-cfiticises his irreverence and disobedience, praises his conscientiousness and generosity when these qualities are appealed to in way to bring them out. To illustrate he tells two clever stories which he says are true. The first illustrates disobedience and dlsrespect, and shows how American parents are apt to encourage them. 'It is Sunday even- ing," and 0 western farmer ''is smoking his pipe on the back porch, while young Josh, his namesake and heir, is playing with the dog in the yard. Old Josh takes his pipe out of his mouth and remarks that 1t is time for young Josh to go for the cows. The junior makes no reply, but keeps on teaching Congo to give his paw. Then the senior repeats his observation, to which he manages to givea little moro of the tone of a command.
 ''I tell ye, Josh, ye must go for the cows.'
 "tI do' wanter,' grumbles young Josh.
 "tQuit yer foolin' an go along' says old Josh.
 "'I shant,' snarls back the junior.
 "'I tell you to go,' exclaims the elder.
 ell tell you won't,' mutters the boy.
 "'Wal, never mind,' says the father; 'mebby they'll come home.''
 The other story gives a moro agreeable picture. It must be said however, that this boy was only six years old. What he would develop into can only be surmised. "He had a cake," says MT. Trowbridge, Ia por- tion of which his cousin Minnie coveted. She accordingly reminded hlm, as she was fond of doing when she had a point to gain, of what the Bible says about doing to others as we would be done by. Now you know, Willie, if had the cake you would want half of it. Willie hesitated moment between inclination and conviction of duty, and then said honestly: I should want all of it. With tears in his eyes, but resolutely choking down his grief, he handed over to her the entire cake, which she walked off complacently nbbling."

back frank and honest ambitions at the gate," and we may well believe Mir Platt that the republicans will pay little heed to this bugaboo now that they have the power to lay it aside. There will be much less heard of civil service reform
 years than there has been for the past four years.
 When such representative republicans as ex-Senator Platt and Senator Ingalls, range themselves squarely in opposition to civil service reform, their views may
 be accepted as fairly representative of those held by the party generally. And when such rank spoilsmen as Clarkson, Windom, Bell and Blaine are placed in position to make their peculiar notions of reform opera tive, we have right to believe with them that the whole system is hum
 bug, useful only to frighten .imid dem- ocrats who hesitate to ..enjoy the fnll campaign. Perhaps the democrats, when they come back to power ill 1893, will cherish Grover Cleveland's ideas of civil service reform, but if they do it will be because they are not susceptible to the educational influences of the course that is being followed by Pres ident Harrison and his party. But we rather think the next president will be a democrat who will understand what he is there for.
