STATE POLITICS.

HARRISBURG Telegraph: There is some
thing In the air that says Senator Delamater's
majority, for Governor will get close to six
figures.
READING Herald: What a cute dodge it
was in Quay putting himself on the side of the
people IN regard to the force Dlll-it is strange
position for him to occupy.
BUTLER Herald: 1t seems almost incredita-
BILE the number of people who have declared
for Pattison, people, too, who have been life
long Republicans until the present time.
ALTOONA Tribune: Mr.. Lewis Emery may
not be quite SO handsome at the close of the
present State campaign as he was at the begin
ming, but he'll surely be great deal wiser.
on CITY Blizzard: Politicians always as
sert there is no money in politics. In the light
of such assertions. their action in continually
seeking Office is somewhat inconsistent, TO say
the least.
PHILADELPHIA Ledger: That appears to
have been a lamb in Wolfe's clothing that got

again to the Prohibitionists. At all events, in
returning to the fold he was as meek as q
lamb.
GERMANTOWN Independent: As far az
heard from neither Pattison nor Delamater are

THE QUALITIES OF srArEsmANsH1p.

The following query raises an interesting
point, which the majority of people will be
likely to settle in accordance with their in
dividual prejudices and opinions:
To the Editor OF The Dispatch;
Is James G. Blaine a statesman in the best
sense, in your judgment? If SO. on what act or
series of acts within his administration as a
public man is the judgment to be formulated?
Please give few persons the points which
ought to determine the matter with un-
prejudiced and sensible persons.
A READER OF TWENTY YEARS.
wELLsvILLE, O., August q. 1880.
In asking whether Mr.. Blaine fulfills the
qualifications of craftsmanship sin the best
sense of the word" we presume our corre-
spondent indicates that idea of statesman
ship which gives it higher rank and
broader characteristics than are understood
to attach to the character of a politician.
Strictly speaking, it is not certain that the
distinction is established. The Imperial
Dictionary defines statesman as: "a man
versed in the arts of government; usually
one eminent for political abilities; poll
tician." Under this definition there is no
doubt of Mr.. Blaine's standing; for he is
beyond question great politician. Still it
would be very salutsry to establish the dis
tinction which would require statesman to
be characterized by broad viewsa and policies
for international benefit, and would relegate
the politician to the catchpcnny methods of
securing popular support.
But the difficulty of assigning q public
man to one rank or the other lies in the fact
that there is no distinct line of demarkation.
"IE the best sense of the word" as our cor

THE statement that Messrs. Quay and
Chandler will put the Republican National
Committee into the business Of furnishing
patent illustrated outsides for;country news
papers, full of regulation Republican doctrine,
indicates enterprise on the part of the Repub-
lican managers. But apart from the danger
that Senator Quay will furnish heretical in
struction on the subject of postponing election
bills and the like, is not such step q very
grave onef Are not the manufacturers of
wrapping paper entitled to protection against
ruiuous competition of this sort?

The fact that s. B. Elkins has just sue
ceeded in nominating Republican ticket in
West Virginia composed of men opposed to the
Gotf leadership is taken as an indication that
the political remains of James 6. Blaine make
pretty lively corpse. If Mr.. EIkins can succeed
in electing his ticket after it is nominated, the
corpse will be still liveler.

VIII Help Quay Dig Bait.

From the Chicago Inter ocean,
If Senator Quay fears that he will not be
allowed to catch muskallonge in Florida waters
after the election bill is passed he can come
West and try the Wisconsin lakes. Wisconsin
has just as good fishing as Florida, and the
Wisconsin people will help the Senator dig
bait the more readily after the "force blll' be-
comes a law.

TIE latest report is that the Comte de Paris

TIE latest report is that the Comte de Paris
will not visit the United States because the
Mckinley bill is hostile to France. This saw.
age species of International retaliation seems
peculiarly uncalled for on the part of the rep
resentative of the Bourbons. The United States
has no prohibitory tariff against foreign princes.
The fact that France has something of
the sort, is the reason why the Comte does not
visit France. II he carries out his reported
policy with regard to the United States he will
then be equally debarred from having good
time in either country.

ried to the great editor one of his poems, 1.-THE
Amber Whale" a ballad of extraordinary
power and beauty. 1t was printed and paid
for. and from this beginning started q career
rich in promise and performance.

THEY WERE SCARED.

"WH were steaminG down the Mexican Pa
ciic coast In the old Panama, expecting
to make San Bias in the morning" said the old
traveller, after the lamps were lighted and the
children put to bed. 1--WE went cautiously, for
the Tres Maries were somewhere around. and
we did not know just where. AS night fell the
fog, which had been hanging over US like
veil became a wall rising on every side. We
slowed down still more in fear of those terrible
islands Such darkness is indescrIbable-and
all about us there was the phosphorus writh-
ing like snakes. The paddles. which alone
broke the palpable stiffness. fell upon these
serpents and crushed them, but the next Sec
ond they were born again, to 90 on twisting and
coiling amid the horrible glassiness Of that
water. Suddenly there was an unearthly
sound. First there was fury OF
rushing wings; then clamor of voices.
The sound came from aloft. The
fog seemed TO deepen. Even the great yards
were invisible. The uncanny voices swelled
into storm of disputations. We tried in vain
to understand them. They seemed to be speak
ing language none Of US knew. Some one
suggested pirates, but pirates do not hover in
the rigging. 1t was more like spirits, chatter
ing there in uncanny familiarity. Certainly
the phosphorescent serpents writhed faster, the
darkness grew denser, the air more stagnant.
No one could sleep with those voices dinning
above there. We were isolated from the world
drifting on an enchanted ocean. with mysterious
voices chorusing above us and the dawn drag
ging as it never did before.
S"Atlast it came. And like an evil bat, the
mystery fed before it. Up there on the spars
emblazoning them with their plumage sat
thousands of parrots, chattering like maniacs.
We laughed of course, 1t is easy to laugh
when the sun shines. The fog fed and left us
the blue water and the bluer sky. With
screams of Joy, and little inarticulate exclama-
tion, the parrots took to wing. and foated like
a bright cloud toward the horizon"
