MdHIFFYjS LATEST

Professor Mahalfy'S faculty for discovering
startling analogies between the political condi-
tons of different countries where nobody sup
posed them to exist is no less remarkable than
the vehemence of his assertion that all who dis
agree with him are hopeleSsy in the wrong
Popular ndicule Of his peculiar views regard
ing the lessons of American life drawn from a
ten days residence in the sequeStered groves
Of Chautauqua, has in no wise discouraged him
and now, almost simultaneously with the Mar
quiS CT Londonderry's cheerful assurance that
twenty years of coercion will pacify Ireland.
the versatile professor comes forward, in the
October number Of "The Chautauquan," with
a new reason for the stern application of that
beneiicent remedy for his country's wrongs
This time the parallel is drawn between Ireland
and Canada, where Mr.. Mahaffy has discov-
cred truly deplolable state Of things. The
English concession to the French inhabitants
Of the lower provinces OF the right to use their
own language and practice their own religion,
it appears, was grave blunder in policy"
The priests have wickedly encouraged them to
marry and bring up laree families on slender
incomes, which really immoral way of liv-
ing" Mr.. MahafTy, as an unprejudiced social
philosopher, finds himself bound to condemn
and since these large families contain a large
proportion Of voters, who maliciOuSy persist in
exercising their privileges the moral politicians
Of the Dominion find their virtue sorey tried
by the temptation to bid for their support
Really, this is a sufficiently serious arraign-
ment, and if Mr.. Mahaffy's conclusions arc
correct az least fifty years of coercion and not

twenty, will be needed to set matters straight
But even these are not the most alarming
revelations. He has actually discovered that
the French Canadians are so lost to all sense of
propriety as to inhabit large province full
Of poor land as the Irish do country full Of
boys and mosses,n which fact is, OF course, re-
sponsibe for the slender incomes referred to
above. They have also caused the commerce of
Europe to migrate from the port of Quebec to
Montreal. Just as in Ireland the "main bust
ness of the country has taken refuge in Belfast,
a Protestant town. The veto of the Central
Parliament has been used in their favor, be-
cause the virtue of the Central Parliament is
not proof against the " lust Of power" and who
can doubt that this weakness on the part Of
their rulers is proof of the inherent viciousness
of the ruled?
Now in all this Mr. Mahaffy undoubtedly has
in mind some grave and difficult problems
which are actually perpleXing the ableSt states
men in Canada. But his squirting view is as
far from atfording just comprehension of them
as are his petulant conclusions from suggesting
a fair and adequate remedy. Cromwelsm has
been tried in Ireland and failed and if Mr..
Mahaffy and Lord Londonderry suppose that
hlsSld tyranny III OldIu VI bCluidul
tyranny in Alsace are examples to be success
fully followed in this county and this age
a residence of more than ten days may tend to
undeceive them Poverty of soil will never
be removed by Incorporate denunciaton Peo-
pie marry to please themselves and not to
please Trinity College. The business that has
deserted Quebec for Montreal would desert
Montreal for another port further inland if
access weru easy and safe; and politicians who
violate their conscences must bear the blame
for their own msdeedS. If religion were re-
sponsible for race, and not race for religion,
there might be some reason in antagonizing
others on account of their beliefs. But the
Protestant enlightenment and liberality which
Mr.. Mahaffy commends have refused to sustain
this position; and unless they are to give way to
superstition and persecution, other devices than
those offered by the pugnacious professor will
be used for the solution of the difficulties of
both Canada and Ireland.

To make great stir in regard TO preventing
baseball playing on Sunday when the baseball sea
son is practically ended is Il fOrc.ble reminder OF
the ancient prOyerb about the stable and Its oc-
cupant. That is what they are doing over IN
Brooklyn, though. indeed it may lie claimed that
they are driving stakes for next year. An address
has been issued calling upon every pastor IN Kings
and Queens Counties to make Sunday baIl-playlng

The announcement that the first opportunity
for registration in Brooklyn will be afforded TO-
morrow gives warning Of the near approach
of election day, which is little more than six
weeks distant. Registration in our sister city will
take place on September "a October and Octo-
Der 90. The hours are from to 10 m. and
from to 10 p. m. There ought TO be no break
from mid-forenoon to mid-afternoon, but the full
est opportunity should be given for the perform
ance of this duty We would remind our Repub-
lican friends in Brooklyn that as many of them
as can possibly do so should arrange to register
tomorrow.

The results Of the elections in France, so far
as they have been received, indicate sub
stantial victory for the Government. large
number Of second ballots will, however, be
necessary, and the ultimate result cannot be
fully foreseen. The returns at late hour
showed that eighty -nine Republicans had been
elected and ffty-eight Republicans while
in ninety-three districts second ballots were
required. In Paris one Republican and four
Boulangists were chosen. 1t was at first re-
ported that General Boulanger had been elected
in Montmartre, but later the announcement
was made that rebalot must be had there.
One of the important religious gatherings Of
The year, the triennial General Convention of
the Protestant Episcopal Church, will open its
sessions in this city next week. 1t will meet
In st. Georges Church, which is convenient and
well adapted for the purpose. As will be seen
on reading an article printed elsewhere in this
issue, large number of important subjects will
come before the convention for discussion, if
not for final settlement Among them are the
revision of the prayer-book, the revision of the
hymnal and the question of changing the name
OF the Church. While these and other matters
are Of commanding interest to Episcopalians.
the action taken upon them will attract not q
little attention outside of that denomination.
The letter which is printed in another column
of to-day's issue in relation to Civil Service re-
form is as timely as it is vigorous. The writer,
one of the most earnest and progressive of Re-
publicans, is obviously correct in his contention
that disbeliever in this reform can have no
standing in our party. The Republican Ma
tional Convention of 1888-the tribunal of last
resort for Republicans-unequivocally cham
poned the merit system and condemned the
spoils system. In so doing it was in complete
accord with the record of the party as well as
with its present spirit and tendency. The great
body Of Republicans desire the complete
triumph Of the reform. It's opponents are for
the most part persons who have axes to grind
or who are given to low views Of public affairs
The Republican Convention which meets this
week at Saratoga will respond to public senti-
ment and conserve the welfare Of the party if
il holds high the standard OF Civil Service re-
torn.
Republicans have already begun to turn their
steps toward Saratoga, and when the State Con-
vention opens on Wednesday it is certain that
there will be an unusually large gathering of
leading men in the party throughout the State.
The convention will comprise nearly 800 dele
gates. 1t will be far more representative
body than the Democratic Convention, which
is to be held week later, having more than
twice as many members. 1t will, moreover.

will be expected to satisfy. Our correspondent
in Saratoga mentions some of the names that
are talked of in connection with the various
Offices, but there is as yet no capitalization of
sentiment upon any particular candidates. The

will adequately voice the opinion of the party

The naphtha launch and the electric-light wire
are twin dangers evolved by modern civilization

There is reason to believe that one Edward
Tucker, of Chicago has his own earnest opinion
of the conflicting divorce laws of this country.
Mrs Tucker No. 1 having obtained a divorce from
him in Kansas and remarked in that State he
consoled himself with another mate. But No :
failed to satisfy his loving but fastidious heart,
so he got Utah court 10 release him from her,
and then was united TO No. 3. we may remark
in passing that Tucker would appear to have been
a marrying man. But alas! the Utah divorce
was pronounced no good Consequently, Mrs.
Tucker No 3 having established that fact to the
satisfaction of Judge, Tucker was sentenced to
the penItentiary for three years. On regalnln9
his freedom he learned that he had been illegally
incarccrated, stree the divorce which his No.
had obtained in Kansas was void, as not complying
with certain legal formalities. As result OF
some correspondence which followed, No. l, who
supposed she had been legally married to her No p
but was mistaken, hurried on to Chicago ana pro-
cured second divorce from Tucker, who it seems,
yearned to be lawfully welded to No. 3. In COIN
menting upon these incidents The Philadelphia
Press" is moved to inquire Where do the moral
considerations come n?" They don't come IN at
all They carefully absent themselves.

Mr. Depew Mr.. Cook had no good stories to

This was peculiarly unfortunate, since they were

Convention will give him a powerful hint

These are stirring lines and if chanted, as they
doubtless were with enthusiasm, must have made
the welkn ring in a manner entirety satisfactory
to '93. But the Universitys professor of English
literature may object to them on the ground that
they are afflicted with the vice of tautology.
