LEGISLATIVE CRITICISM.

The San Francisco Ala complains that
this journal has mistaken its position on
criticism of legislators and other public
men. 1t insists that its complaint is that
the reckless and indiscriminate abuse Of
public men has deprived the press Of the
power il once habitat it no more in
fuences the public mind in that direction,
because it has become a chronic fault
finder, and the people therefore no more
regard its charges-that is to say, it has
cried chief so often without effort, that
its voice does not receive hearing even
when il should While there is meas
ure Of truth in what our contemporary
says, we think we read it Alright in the
first instance. Bat the later expression of
The lltd NAV be received as interpretive
OF intended position, without in any wise
affecting the comments in which the REC
ORD UNION INDUCED. 1t certainly is true
that the late legislature was much and
severely criticised by the press, and it is
also true that there was no apparent re-
suit. Yet it is not possible to conclude
that the structures INDUCED in did not ex-
ercise restraining influence. ''What
might have been,7 in other words, had the
press remained silent, no man can say.
We are free to admit that criticisms in
dulged in with virulence and passion lost
force and that altogether too much lati-

THAT was wise advice the President OF
the Hungarian Chamber gave to its mem.
bers, that the condition of the political
feeling did not justify members in carving
arms. This was intended as prudential
caution, but it is hot at all likely to be OBJ
served in the Diet That Holman. Tisza
was mobbed is not at all surprising. That
Official has had such experience frequently.
and being as fearless as he is cruelty cal
cuiating and firm, it need not surprise the
country to receive news of further public
outbreaks against him. That statesman
has not at any time hesitated to strengthen
the Government position by corrupt means,
and by putting ON the Government thumb
screws. His methods of coercios and re-
preston throw anything the colored citi-
zens of the South have suffered into the
shade. 1t was because of these methods
that Count Apponyi-incorrectly reported
in the dispatches as Polony-repfesenting
the Moderate OPPOSITION" has fought
lisa during the long reign he has en-
joyed. The power of the Premier is
something marvellous. The cries of the
people against him steadily grow louder
and more bitter, yet at each election the
Minister increases the Government ma
jority. The Moderates, the Independents
II
and the Anti-Semites do not appear to be
able to unite against him, and between
these three stools Tisza maintains the
equilibrium of his own. 1t is true that on
one or two occasions the Independents and
the Anti-Semites have voted together, but
their alliance never had much cohesive
power. The hope of liberalism in Hun
gary-such as it isis in the scythe of
time, that some day must gather Tisza in.

around the Parnell investigation were
graphically described by Mr.. Boyne, also
what ne saw in Paris during the exciting
election when General Boulanger carried
the day.
Returning to this country, he witnessed
the ceremonies of the Inauguration OF
President Harrison, and says that he will
never forget the sight. Contrasting the
crowd assembled there with those he had
seen IN Europe, he could not help but con-
graduate himself that he had become an
American citizen. His visit abroad had
convinced him that this was the greatest
country in the world, and to come here
was the only hope of the European artisan.

HE San Francisco Eaaminer is doing its
utmost to ridicule and bring into contempt
the administration of President Harrison.
1t has resorted to the political cartoon as
a means. But its effort falls upon the
public without effect. Such work as that
simply disgusts decent people. President
Harrison has thus far so well and fully
met conservative public desire, has shown
such care in selecting representatives for
the nation and in choosing subordinate
officials, that there is room for no criticism
except Of the order that finds fault simply
and only from partisan motives.

ion." They have been permitted to usurp
the editorial function and have been given
rein that very frequently led them into
worse than extravaganza In short, to
those upon the ground this has been well
known, and it was early realized in
the late session that this license
affected the Legislators very little, and was
received by the public with so much allow
ance as to greatly reduce the potentiality
of really temperate, bold, just criticism
But this fact in no wise cuts any figure in
the questions we discussed with the Alto.
and does not modify in any respect the
opinions We expressed that examination
of the fruits of the late Legislature does
net call for indiscriminate assault or de-
tense, but for diligent and conservative
inquiry. That RECKLESS denunciation of
public officers in general is not met or an
swered by equally reckless and conse-
quently CONSCIOUSNESS defense. That be-
tween an irresponsible vilifer of men and
the indiscriminate apologist there is no
difference for disregard for the truth y
and finally, as already said, the highest
Office the press can fill in the interests
of the people of California to-day is
to take up the acts of the late Legislature
and the existing administration, and with
judicial fairness separate the good from the
bad, and thus strike balance which will
determine whether the government of the
people is good or bad"
