thus following the General, not less seriou:
than his in plotting for the overthrow o

4 Word ABOUT THE MUGWUMPS.

Tribune exchanges frequently speak OF the Mug
wump party as dead. This seems hardly correct.
As a party, it could not, probably, be SAID TO nave
ever had any life, but, if it was once alive we are
not prepared TO say that it is now dead; we nave
seen no account OF the death OF the MuSwump
party among political party obituaries. Stlll we
fear il is n fact that the worst might happen to
the Mugwump party and II e public not find It out;
we do not imagine that il will take the mourners
AZ the funeral OF the Mugwump organization more
than o minute two TO pass given point we
NAV admit with reluctance that the civilization OF
the nineteenth century has not made people more
thoughtful of the sufferings of the unknown ana
friendlcss but we suppose that there is denying
The fact that the Mugwump party might be missed
from the sections it has been in the habit of in
testing for very long time before anybody would
take the trouble to inquire what had become Of IT,
The public takes comparatively lang,lid interest
in the politics Of the Province of Kara Vaughan,
Interior Iartary but its concern in this matter
actually borders on enthusiasm when compared
with the way in which it. troubles itself about the
dongs of the Mugwumps At present the Mug
wump party really does not seem TO be as well
known as the north pole.
Bnt whether or not there is or ever was
Mugwump party, the fact remains that there arc
still a very few scattering MugwumpS lingering
with us The few wandering bands of Mugwump'
in the East resemble, TO a considerable extent,
the small and disappearing herds Of buffalo in
the West Crushed and overthrow by success.
sive political defeats all that remains Is here
and there a little band of survivors gathered
around dccrcpt leader like handful Of buila-
locs collected about some old and once formidable
bull We trust the Smithsonian Institution has
been rs fortunate in the OF the Mugwump
rs in that of the buffalo and secured specimens
II not, we will say for its guidance that little
band Is known 10 exist in New York. while a few
are reported from Boston, with other occasional
small scattering drOves in various parts of New
England. STILL it would not at all surprise MS
il the Mugwump should continue to exist in small
numbers so long as the world lasts When the
last trump sounds we suppose there will be Mug
wumps TO crticse its tone and find fault with
things in general.

Forgery was once the most fashionable form

Mexico withdrawn by revision of the eXtradl-
ton treaty with that country, most wholesome
deterrent effect would be produced.

HUNTING DOWN EMBEZZLERS.

The sole condition imposed by the Weldon
Extradition Act is that the criminal shall be
tried for the offence for which he is surren-
dered. This was the main point for which the
British Foreign Office contended in the WinSlow
correspondence. 1t is concession which Mr.
Phelps made when he negotiated the recent
extradtion treaty, and he was justified in doing
so by the decisions of the highest Federal courts.
Americans may as well frankly admit that the
extraditi0n practice of their Government has
not been free from scandal in this respect
There have been repeated instances in which
criminals whose eXtradition has been demanded
have been tried for other offences not desig
mated in the treaties. The principle that prose-
cuton must be for the particular offence for
which the criminal is surrendered is logical
and necessary; and the latest decisions of tho
courts recognize and sanction it. There can
be no objection on the ground Of principle and
natural equity to the guarantee required by
the Weldon Act.
There is, however, practical difficulty which
may be source of embarrassment in the en-
forcement Of the Weldon Act. Fugitive Grim
nails when surrendered by foreign Govern
ment are subject to prosecution in State courts.
When there is an eXtraditiOn treaty it is the
basis of local procedure. and the State courts
are required by the latest decisions to recognize
it as the highest law on the subject, and cOnse-
Quently to prosecute the criminal for the
offence for which he has been surrendered, and
not on any other charge until he has been grant
ed an opportunity to return to the foreign asy-
mm The Weldon Act, being merely Ca
madam statute, will not have the binding force
of treaty law in regulating the criminal pro-
ceduie of State courts. It is at least an open
question whether the guarantee which the Ca
madam officials will require before surrendering
an offender for trial on specific charge can
be adequately enforced in the United States.
1t is to be hoped that no obstacles will be
encountered in carrying the Weldon Act into
operation. During the forty-seven years which
have elapsed since the eXtraditon treaty was
negotiated new class of crimes has been Gre
ated By, that spirit Of greed which has taken
possession Of the American people. Old-fash-
toned forgers and robbers can be pursued 10
Canada or across seas and brought back to get
their deserts; but defaultng bank presidents,
embezzling cashiers, and all the greater Grim
inals, who traffic in thousands or even mill

devices and reckless gambling, successfully

MONEY FOR TIE CdNALS

The bill which provides for an appropriation
to continue the good work of canal improve
ment was considered in the Senate yesterday
As originally introduced, it gave the canals y
round million dollars. The Canal Committee
cut that sum down one-half. Yesterday
motion prevailed to increase the appropriation
to $4,000. The Senators who favored the
increase will doubtless be hailed in certain
quarters as friends of the canals" while those
who voted the other way may expect to have
their regard for our great system Of waterways
called into question. Nevertheless the best
friends of the canals are the Legislators who
do not hold that too much money for the canals
is just enough.
Senator Sloan, who represents this conserya-
tive element, in the course of his remarks yes
terday in opposition to the motion to increase
the appropriation referred to a fact which the
other side seems to lose sight Of, although it
is of no little importance. That fact is the
decided opposition to any and all propositions
looking TO State aid for the canals which exists
in many Of the counties. THE TRIBCNE has
no sympathy with this opposition, regarding
it as the outcome Of narOwneSS and selfish
ness. But there it is, and it is the part Of
NV w
ignore it, Let series OF excessive approprla-
tions be put through and the ant-cana coun-
ties may form a nOn-paltsan combination and
do some effective kicking. 1t is never well to
forget the sad fate of the goose that laid the
golden egg.
Last year 81 900, 900 was asked for the
canals. During the debate on the appropriation
Senator Sloan used this language
In every argument have heard upon this question:
and have been present when the advocates Of the
81 900 900 bill before the Joint committee OF the
Senate and Assembly, and while the arguments were
strong I'm reference the general proposition that We
should maintain the canals IN the best c0ndHion,
there has never been a specifically advanced
why II was necessary TO make this appropriation 50
much larger this year than have made In previous
years And it is my opinion that no good reason can
| be advanced.
Well, the appropriation for 1883 was cut
down from S1,OOO,000 to S51O,OOO' and Sc
far as we have heard, nobody pretends to argue
that the work Of improvement was embarrassed
because the appropriation was not larger Has
any substantial reason been given why the
appropriation for this year should be IN excess
Of that for 1888? If So we have failed tC
