NOT IN DANGER.

Mr. GRARD, a Canadian Senator, is spur
ring up the Dominion government to look
after the development Of the great Mac
kenzie river region. He expressed himself
the other day as being fearful that fill
clustering expedition might be organized in
the United States Tor the purpose Of seiz-
ing that territory "There is danger"
said he, ''of expeditions coming over from
the United States and taking possession Of
this territory. Fifty resolute men, armed
with supplies and ammunition, would be
sufficient to hold the country against any
force that could be sent against them under
existing conditions, owing to the difficulty
of moving troops and provision into that
region 1t would be a most serious thing,
he maintains, should the Dominion lose so
valuable possession as the great Mac
kenzie river, yet that is what he believes
will happen if the government does not
take immediate steps to occupy and open
up the country for settlement. The coun-
try is said to contain great mineral wealth
and abounds in valuable fisheries,
extensive forests and rich pastures, all
awaiting settlement and atfording plenty of
room for thousands of population, all of
which may be true, but it is too cold a
cline to be any temptation to tlibusters in
the United States. Canada will be secure
in its possession of the Mackenzie river
country for some generations to come, if it
is only threatened from the United States.
Mr. GIRARD received a promise from the
Dominion government that immediate at
tention would be given to the matter, and
justices of the peace will soon be appointed,
surveyors set to work and railroads pro-
iected towards the Mackenzie river coun-
! try, and inducements held out to emigrants
to go there, all of which will doubtless re
suit in good, though Mr.. GIRARD is getting
the Dominion government stirred up by
sounding 4 false alarm.

MORE STYLE"

We believe it was during MIR. HAYES
occupancy of the nations executive man
sion that the first complaint was uttered
against the size and arrangement of the
White House The grumble was not a
loud one, however, and was soon forgotten.
General GARFIELD and family found the
building large enough to accommodate them
and their friends. The establishment was
not satisfactory to ARTHUR, who needed
more room. President CLEVELAND and
his charming wife were never heard
to murmur, and while they were
generous entertainers and never without
visitors they always managed to take care
of those who came to see them. Our new
President is only fairly in Office before
there comes from the White House a dis
dainful wall Of distress. Mrs. HARRISON
does not like the place; the MCKEEs are
displeased with it; Prince RUSSELL HAIR
RIsoN and wife are Disguised with the
mansion. Accompanying these walls
comes the suggestion that the govern
ment should erect new structure
one which will be more modern
in its appointments, much larger,
more stylish and more in keeping vita the
great wealth of the nation. Some of the
newspapers are advocating the proposition,
saying that as this is the greatest nation on
earth, its chief magistrates should reside in
a magnificent palace which would be the
pride Of our own people and the wonder
and admiration Of the world.
In this as in other things is seen
the tendency to depart from the
simple ways which have made America
great and mighty, and pattern after the
aristocracy which the true American pro-
fesses to despise. The inclination to
'style," to show, to love title, to be ''aris-
tocratic" in the strict sense of the term.
grows mora decided with each succeeding
generation, and is more ma rked with every
succeeding Republican administration.
We are departing from the demo-
cratic simplicity which protests against
class and makes war upon everything that
separates men, placing enc on plane
above another.
The White House is a grand structure
for democratic republic; it is not snowy,
AMI is anything but stylish in appear
ance: it is plain, MISUNDERSTANDING, and
conveys the idea of solidity and simplicity.
1t is lust such a house as true republicans

and prophecies for the United States a

HARRISON'S VERTEBRA.

Whatever one may think Of the politics
and of the Judgment of President HARRISON,
one must admire the courage and indie
pendence of the man. No sooner had the
votes been counted last November than
everybody said that the President would
have to make JAMES G. BLAINE his secre-
tary of state. This seemed a political ne
cessity from which HARRISON could not es-
cape. To have ignored BLAINE would
have been to antagOnize, at the beginning
of his administration, he ablest Republican
statesman and the most influential man in
the party. While all said that the Presi-
dent must have the man from Maine for
his premier very nearly all We're equally
emphatic in the assertion that Mr.. BLAINE
would be master of the administration.
H lRRIsoN being dwarfed by him The
fplumed knight" was accustomed to lead,
while others followed; the real friends of
the President were sorry that he was
pla ed in such an awkward box. The pre-
diction as to the premiership was verified
in due course of time, but the other as to
dwarfing the President, seems in a fair way
Of going unfulflled. The mastery is held
by HARRISON, and the shrinBage IS all on
the part Of BLAINE. Mr.. CLEVELAND was
never more pronounced in ignoring his secre-
tary of state than HARRISON is with respect
to the man who was going to run" the ad-
ministration. So far the gentleman from
Indiana has been President in fact as well
as name, and he bids fair to demonstrate
that he possesses all the mind of his-own''
requisite to the occasion.
General HARRIsoN's political wisdom in
this matter may be called in question; it
may be doubted that he viii strengthen
his party by making his disregard of
BLAINE so prominent that all must observe
it. Mr.. BLAINE is yet the greatest man in
the Republican ranks, and his enmity or an
tagonism would be injurious if not fatal to
one against whom it was exercised. 1t is
possible that he viii resent the slight and
make war on the President, in which event
HARRIsOS would have hard work to stand
up under the assault, as many of the most
influential Republicans would take sides
with BLAINE in an effort TO bring disaster
upon the President.
But whatsoever oe the outcome of the
Presidents manifest determination to
stand at the head Of his administration. and
his studied disregard of BLAINE, Gen raj
HARRISON is calling out popular admira-
ton, and gaining friends among those who
had regarded him as lacking backbone aud
as wanting in the courage and ability to as
sert himself against the foremost states
man Of his party. Americans admire
independence and bravery in their leaders
quite as much as they do craftsmanship.

JOHN BREGHT's MONUMENT.

The people of England are making loud
demands for JOHN BRIGHT to be buried in
Westminster Abbey, but there is small
prospects of their wishes being acceded to,
since the abbey is an aristocratic institu-
ton, and however loudly the aristocratic
party Just now may sing the praise OF JOHN
BRIGHT. they will not consent to give him
a burial among the aristocratic statesmen
and heroes lying in Westminster The
aristocracy of England had no love for
BRIGHT, though they have to admit his abil-
ity and untainted honor. He was of the
masses; he was their advocate against the
classes. When in the house of commons,
Mr.. BRIGHT spoke against the building Of
the Alabama, Mr.. LAIRD, in reply, said he
would rather be the builder Of a dozen
Alabamas than be man who, like Mr..
BRIGHT, had set class against class, and
aristocratic England applauded the senti-
ment to the echo Mr.. BRIGHT was the
champion of the common people
of England, and the English titled
classes had no more love for
him than the same class of people in Rome
had for the GRAcCHI. The great commOner

they loved him, but because he was OPP

in death and put on the customary suits of
woe at his funeral. But vote him place

petuate in chiseled marble the memory of
the man who did so much to humble the
pride of the English classes and to prove
the only real title to nobility was noble
action, generous thought and fearlessness

the naughty Queen to place a wreath of
flowers on the bold brow5 of CROMwELL's
statue that stands in Manchester. Besides,
JOHN BRIGHT needs no placenOr monument
in Westminster Abbey, nor anywhere
else He has built his own monument. II
is to be seen in the enlarged liberties of
the people of England; in the increased
prosperity of the masses for the
last generation, and the work to
which he bent the energies of his
noble mind will bless generations yet to
come. He was a friend to progress, to
truth, to peace, to liberty, friend to the
common people and soughtto alleviate their
distress and increase their prosperity and
happiness; and those words, when they
represent the truth, as in his case they do,
erect grander monument to his memory
than marble shaft though it were placed
| in a nations sanctury.

KING JOHN.
and people

The report that King JOHN, of Abyssinia
was defeated and slain recently by italian
forces will bring to mind the similarity of
career and fate between him and his prede-
cessor, King THEODORE. What THEODORE
was to England for many years-a thorn in
the flesh-King JOHN has been to the Ital-
ians. What England was to THEODORE,
Italy has been to JoHS. In consequence of
King THEODORE having taken some English
subjects prisoners and kept them such in
spite OF England's protests, a war eXpedi-
ton was fitted out and placed under the
command of Sir ROBERT NAPIER. 1t was
successful, the stronghold of THEODORE
was stormed and taken and the, unfortunate
King of Abyssinia was found dead within.
1t is supposed that he died Roman-like, by
his own hand Sir ROBERT then retreated,
taking the son of THEODORE with him and
leaving Abyssinia in state of anarchy.
The Queen of England took charge of the
boy, aged about seven years, and for
while he was educated in India, but after
wards returned to England, where he died
before reaching maturity. The Abyssinian
throne was then usurped by JOHN, who
in this matter, did the same as his
predecessor had done. THEODORE was
a usurper. There is one bold
step which THEODORE took that King JOHN
has never had the hardihood to imitate-he
proposed for the hand of Queen VICTORIA;
but England's widowed Queen looked down
abashed, and coyly said, no. Maybe that's
one reason that THEODORE hated the Eng
fish. The Abyssinians trace the origin of
their empire back to the time of SOLOMON,
when the Queen of Sheba visited him; and
perhaps THEODORE had an idea that as
Sheba stood in awe of King SOLOMON so
should VICTORIA stand in establishment of
hial-which doubtless she did when he pro
posed for her chubby hand, but unfortu-
nately for THEoDoRE's suit there was little
or no admiration mixed with her astonish-
ment, hence the relationship between THEo-
DoRE and VICTORIA never became so pleas
antly amicable as that between the wise
man and Sheba's royal and lovely Queen.

A DISAGREEABLE SITUATION.

The disagreeable situation in which At
tOrney- General WEBSTER, of the British
cabinet. finds himself, illustrates the evil
of permitting officers of the government to
engage as counsel in private law suits. Mr.
WEBSTER was retained as counsel for the
London Times in the case at issue between
that paper and Mr.. PARNELL. At the same
time he held an important cabinet position
and was receiving a large salary. 1t would
seem that his good judgment and taste
should have taught him that to engage in
such u case as that of the Times would re-
feet upon his official integrity, since hewas
as much employed by the crafty managers
of the Times for the weight and influence
he would bring TO that side Of the issue by
reason Of his position in the government as
for his skill as an attorney. And, indeed.
that is the object in securing the services
of such men, and the inevitable result has
been something bordering on scandal. In
the case of MIR. WEBSTER there is nothing
to palliate his accepting private brief aud
fees, since the amount Of his salary is such
as to Justify the government
demanding all his time. He receives
S35, 900 year. The action o.
the Liberal leaders il demand
ing that his salary be reduced
because Of his neglect OF public bust
ness in order to attend the Times PARNEI.L
case, though lost in the commons, was a re
buke to the attorney-general; but better
plan would be to prohibit by law members
Of the government from engaging in any
such private suits as is the practice IN the
United States, so far, at least rs the cabi-
net officers are concerned; and it would be
well if the practice extended to members of
the United States Senate and House of
Representatives. As rule, it is the politi-
cal influence that railroads and other mann
moth corporations pay for when they en-
gage the services of Senators and Represen-
tatives as counsel, and not their legal
ability. Public officers should be regarded
as public servants entirely, and paid such
conversation for their services as will JUS
tify men Of character and ability in accept
ing the offices and then let them devote
themselves to the service Of the government
and people.

lately appointed to be United States min
lister to the court of St. james, viii decline
the honor rendered to him by President
HARRISON for the reason that his wife is a

there is no foundation Tor the rumor, as
the reason would scarcely be sufficient to
induce a young, ambitious politician to
throw away such a distinguished honor.
Besides. had Mr.. LINCOLN decided upon
