THEY TALK OF BLAINE.

New York Herald: Mr.. James G.. Blaine
alone can afford to smle In the profound
recesses of his heart there is hidden a good
deal of resonant chuckling at the discontinue
of his competitors and his own unscatched
condition.
St. Louis Globe Democrat: Mr.. Pattison
has twice carried Pennsylvania, and his rec
ord, both political and personal, is infinitely
better than that of Mr.. Cleveland. This sig
nifes that he stands good chance to be
beaten by Blaine for the presidency in 1892
Minneapolis Tribune: There are two gen.
tlemen, each of whom, for Numerically oppo-
site reasons, believes things have been COM
ing his way of late One is James G.. Blaine
and the other Grover Cleveland. Months ago
Gath predicted that it would be Blaine and
Cleveland IN 1892, and it looks as if the
prophecy would be fulfilled.

for the people outside OF the banquet
morning by the press of the country,
rather than for those who were his i'm
mediate auditors. There was chance
to make point for tiny policy" and the
fullest possible advantage was taken OF
it. There was never u more palpable
instance OF an attempt to make personal
political capital at the sacrifice Of every
propriety and dignity belonging to an
occasion essentially social and non-polit-
ical in its nature. There unquestiona-
bly, were democrats there who did APP
prove the views expressed by Mr.. Cleve-
land, as there certainly are thousands in
the country who will not agree with
them, and there are many more who
will regret that the acknowledged leader
OF the party should have shown so little
discretion and sense of propriety as to
have made the event of honoring the
birthday of another leader OF their
party the occasion for very common
place stump speech.
The circumstance furnishes another
forcible example of the solicitude with
which Mr.. Cleveland looks forward to
1892, He sees former friends dropping
away from him and feels the urgent
| necessity of utilizing every opportunity
that offers to counteract the influence Of
these desertons. He will accomplish
little in this direction by such efforts as
he made at the Thurman banquet.

In view OF overtures being made by
the democrats of Nebraska to pool issues
with the alliance, the opinions of eastern
party organs regarding the union will
prove interesting, particularly to the
farmers The Brooklyn Eagle warns the
democracy that it must steer clear of
certain agrarians and iconoclasts re-
turned from western and southern
states" 'There is no telling" says the
Eagle, Ito what measures of madness
these men may seek to commit the dem
ocratic party. Judging from certain de-
mands made by the Farmers alliance in
the southern commonwealths, we may
expect to witness the introduction OF
bills rs wild and visionary as
the worst dreams of chronic
dyspeptic." The Eagle suggests that
sensible men in the republican and dem
ocratic parties come together to defeat
"the looting schemes of fanatics who
were washed to the front on the top
wave OF Tuesdays triumph" "Fanat-
ics," Missionaries" ''madmen" and
"chronic dyspeptics" are not the endear.
ing terms that usually precede politi-
cal union. The east will have none Of
it, and should the Nebraska democracy
attempt to push the wild dreams
of chronic dyspeptics," it will be
promptly and vigorously sat upon.
The Eagle voices the honest party
sentiment, and reiterates what THE
BEE pointed out during the cam
paign - that the democracy encour-
ages the alliance as a means OF rid
lag into power

money to come front This question must
be soon answered, and upon the nature of
the answer the future welfare Of Congo very
largely depends,
-
Now that England, France Germany and
Portugal nave redrawu, more or less salts
factorily, and with lines moro or less exact,
the map OF the dark continent, what have
they gained that they did not have beforel
Efforts TO subject Africa to trade and civili-
zation are no new thing, although the opinion
prevails among many Englishmen that they
are about to engage in an enterprise that has
never been attempted. From the days Of
Queen Elizabeth down TO the time "within
the memory of mon still living England mas
chartered company after company TO pcne-
trate this realm of jungle, slavery and deadly
fever. They have issued prospectuses filed
with glowing accounts Of its vast undevel-
oped wealth, and of its charms rs the future
home for emigrants from the overcrowded
cities OF the mother country. With
these appeals TO the material interests of the
Englishman have been coupled appeals TO his
piety and philanthropy appeals to assist in
the noble work Of spreading Christianity and
Of extirpating human slavery. But all these
companies have been failures from first to
last No trade Of consequence has ever been
built up Central Africa is as pagan as ever.
II has yet to become the home of European
colonists. 1t was these stubborn and dis
couraging facts that inspired the parliament
tary report of 1868, which declared that the
further extension of territory or assumption
of government or new treaties Offering any
protection to native tribes would be mex
pedient." The experience of other powers
has In no wise been different. 1t is a very
serious question whether Africa is worth
having.
-
Mr., James w. Wells. who for many years
has been prominent in the Brazilian railroad
surveys has recently supplied some interest
ing facts with regard to the lines which Bra
zil is now extending many hundreds of miles
into the hitherto almost inaccessible interior.
He says the Mogyana railroad is to be the
great central line Of the country. 1t has now
entered the state of Goyaz. has nearly reached
the capital of that state, and will be rapidly
extended to distant Cuyaba. AThiS town, on
the Paraguay, is n thousand miles from Rio
de Janeiro, and the trading caravans between
the sea and Cuyaba have often been several
months on the way. Another great system
OF lines, 500 miles in length, is building from
| Sac Paulo to Rio Grande do Sui, along the
uplands back of the coast mountain ranges,
an enterprise that will place Rio de Janeiro
within easy reach of the southern part of the
republic
After their hard beginning in railroad
building the Brazilians think they are having
very easy time of it today, for the tablcland
| railroads do not cost over S25 900 "a mile, as
against the coast lines cost of from Sl25, 900
to 100000 per mile. At the rate these and
other enterprises are now being carried for
ward the railway map of Brazil will soon
show very different appearance.

LET THEM VINDICATE SIDNEY DILLON

LET THEM VINDICATE SIDNEY DILLON,
And now comes the report that Sidney
Dillon is to be reappointed president OF
the Union Pacific road as a vindication
of his former management. That would
be a vindication indeed.
1t will take a great deal more than his
reelection to the presidency OF the road
to vindicate the Dillon regime for
converting Nebraska and the states
through which the road runs into mere
political provinces, degrading the en-
ployes into mere political henchmen and
stripping the trans-Missour1 region of
every dollar the traffic would bear.
Charles Francis Adams is not very
popular on the line of the Union Pacific,
but Sidney Dillon is execrated by all
who have spark Of manhood and integ-
rity about them.
If we arc to return to the methods OF
the political road agent and the reckless
buccaneering that exploited the road of
what was left by the Credit Mobelier for
which he also played his part, just vim
dicate Sidney Dillon and make him pres
ident of the Union Pacific once more!
