| have hitherto been careful, even In the dis
posal of this Office, not to appear to affrOnt
patriotic feeling. Since the war the Demo-
Gratis have had three Speakers, Michael c.
Kerr, Samuel j. Randall aud John G. Car
Isle. Kerr was from Indiana and Randall
from pennsylvania, so Carlisle was the ohy

this fact may be used against these gentle
men by Northern aspirants; but probably
neither Mills nor Crisp will be frightened
out Of the race in this way. The Southern
wing of tire party has borne the heat of the
day, and 1t may justly claim that if its ideas
and It's policy are to be used its men may as

Politics In Great Britain are moving on at
more leisnrely pace than in America; but
they are nevertheless apparently approach
Ing some very interesting developments. The
opening OF the winter session of Parliament
has been deferred until the 9th of this
month"; in order to enable;Mr. Balfour and
Lord Salisbury to make certain political adj
dresses. For the winters session the princi-
PAL SUBJECTS OF discussion will probably be
tne budget and the Irish Land Purchase bill
Inc budget corresponds to the appropria-
tlon bills in our Congress. Instead of hav-
Ing several bills the English lump all their
appropriations into one bill. which 10 oolloa
Tue budget" This budget also generally
contains whatever legislation may be needed
to raise or regulate the supply of revenue
needed to meet the appropriations, In
sense the English budget is therefore a com
bination Of tariff and appropriation hills
But as England has no protective system.
her tariffs are adjusted solely for revenue
purposes, and therefore are far less complex
than the American tariffs. Nevertheless the
revenue feature of the budget is an impor-
tant and difficult part; and more than one
British government has been sorely embar-
raised by an unpopular tariff or license
which Its budget has revealed. So far Lord
Salisbury's government has been peculiarly
fortunate in the popularity of its budgets,
which have been under the charge of Mr..
Goschen. Chancellor of the Exchequer and
most able and accomplished tiuancier The
Irish Land Purchase bill promises to give the
ministry more trouble than the budget. 1t
Is OF course, sop to the Irish, and SO rms
the risk OF alternating the most uncompromIs-
ing Conservatives without securing compen-
sating support from the Irish or GIadstonian
parties 1t is generally expected that there
Will be more or less trouble with the Hill.

1t is said that the President, in his mes
sage to Congress, will take strong grounds
In favor of the passage of the election bill
at the coming session. 1t will be remem-
bered that the bill passed the House at the
last session, but failed in the Senate, owing
to filibusteriDg threats by the Democrats
and faintheartedness on the part Of some
Republicans. There was an understanding
when Congress adjourned that the Senate
would take up the bill at the next sessi ON
and pass 1t, changing the rules, if necessary,
to do so. 1t will not be surprising, however,
If some Republicans are found when Con-
gress meets reluctant to live up to their
agreement. Though the recent elections
turned almost entirely upon the tariff, the
election bill being very little discussed,
yet the Democrats have loudly proclaimed
that their victory was a condemnation of the
election bill as well as the tariff bill, and
their shouting has probably not been with
out effect upon some Republicans, especially
those Republicans who were not enthusiast
tic for the bill at the lasr session.

The Florida Times Union, one of the most

sheets, notwithstanding its editor is North

tude on the part of the South previous

Its advantage in the long rum" and so it adj
vises the election of Northern Democrat to
the Speakership. The Times Unions frank.
ness is quite charming. A modest attitude
precious TO the Presidential election will re-
suit in the South's advantage. That is, it
will help the South elect somebody Presi-
dent who will do her bidding. Subsequent
to the Presidential election modesty will not
be in order.

The latest osjection to the Australian bal
lot grows out of the fact that certain ballots
cast under that system in Connecticut were
thrown out because it was alleged that they
bore distinguishing marks. That is liable to
happen under any system. Ballots have
been thrown out in Maine for the same rea-
son, and it was not under the Australian

undoubtedly that it died for lack of brains

CHEAP BLUFF.
TBanpOr Whip I

We learn by the way of the Portland cor
respondent of the Boston Herald that the
Democrats of the First district have decided
not to contest Mr.. Reeds seat in the next
House. There was general impression pre-
vailing that the Democrats undertook to con-
test Mr. Reeds title to a seat in the next
House last September, but 1t was a most dis
NAL failure. No doubt they would be most
happy to find pretext to transfer the con-
test to the next House, but an attempt to
question the title of Congressman with a
five thousand Maine majority behind him
would be too ridiculous even for a Demo-
cratic House to seriously consider. The
talk about an investigating committee is the
cheapest kind of bluff, intended merely to
let the Democrats down as easily as possible.

We have one word more with our neighbor
the Argus on the sugar question. There
came into the PRESS office yesterday re-
sponsible gentleman who had read the reply
to the Argus's mistatements on the sugar
question. This gentleman stated that he
had just bought of leading firm In Portland
barrel of sugar to be delivered not later
than next July. Fer that sugar he is to pay
Eve cents pound, although sugar is now
quoted at 6a cents, and was selling not long
ago at y. The gentleman who bought this
sugar is not a hotel keeper or a boarding
house keeper. He bought the sugar for his
family. AS the new tariff on sugar goes into
effect next April, the gentleman ought, ac-
cordng to the Argus's reasoning, to pay
about ten cents pound instead of only five
cents. 1t should be noticed, by the way,
thai sugar, upon which the new tariff makes
this great saving, is an article of constant
use and great expense to the families of rich
AMI poor alike.

1t seems to be pretty certain that the or
ganization of the New Hampshire legisla-
ture will give rise to good deal of uupleas-
antness. Both Republicans and Democrats
insist that they have elected majority of the
House, and both insist that they will
organize it. The equities are undoubtedly
with the Republicans, for 1t was never the
intention of the constitution that each
little town, some of them with but IF
teen voters, should have representative in
the House. But to make the House Demo-
cratic the people elected from these towns
must all be admitted The equities of
this case will finally prevail, though the
Democrats will make a good deal Of noise
and do good deal of shouting before they
give up.

Hon. ID. NJ. Barrett returned from Co
lumbus on last Saturday, the State Board
of Equalization having adjourned to
meet January 6. The cause OF the ad
iourument was the failure OF large
number of County Auditors to send in
their returns. In many places the APP
praisors have not completed their work,
and in the case of Hamilton county it is
feared that no satisfactory report can be
expected, even by the time now Set.
The adjournment OF the Board to await
the completion of the Auditors returns
leaves the County Boards who have al
ready sent in their abstracts, free to
make any changes they may wish before
January 5. Captain Barrett gives it as
hisopinion that the Board of Equaliza
ton OF Highland county have the right
to make any alteration in their report
that they may wish. The answer of the
County Board to the committee from
Paint township which asked for recon
slderation of the Boards action in regard
to their land, was that, having adjourned
as an equalizing board, they could not
now make any change in their report.
Captain Barrett has given his assurance
that any change they may make will be
accepted by the State Board as part OF
Their report. In view of this fact the
Commissioners have consented to give
PANT people hearing ON December IS,
when they must show good cause why
any reduction should be made.

The messiah craze, which is at present
sweet.ing over the whole race OF red
men, is remarkable enough and quite
surprising, coming when and where it
did, but it ia no new thing under the
sun nor does it illustrate any principle OF
human nature that has not been shown
before in the history OF men. The belief
of the human mind in a coming savior
$, ems to be almost instructive. Hardly
a nation but has at one time or another
in it's history been carried away with 1t.
The last notable instance in modern
history is that of the Irish messiah who
made his advent under the euphonious
title of Baldearg O'Donnel about the
time of the battle of Boyne. The hum"r
of the name was too much even for the
superstitious Irish and the Hibernian
epiphany ended in farce. The Indian
messiah has little to boast of in the way
OF title. Co wot.we is neither sacred
nor heroic, but as long as he remains
behind the veil his influence Will grow
Let him make his appearance and the
excitement will settle down immediately.

Some Texts for Col. shepherd.

Col. Elliot F. Shepherd, the brilliant
bnt erratic editor Of. the New York Mail
and Express, has the double distinction
of being Presbyterian elder and son.
in law of Vanderbilt-either of which
would seem to disqualify him for editor
ial duties. However he carries his re-
Ii ous notions into every. day life and
keeps at the head of his editorial column
in each issue text of scripture appro
pirate to the day. Some of these senti
ments appear strangely out OF tune with
his editorial structures upon the doings
of Tammany and the Farmers Alliance.
As one would naturally expect, the
Lamentations of jeremiah have been
very frequently drawn upon for texts
since the November elections.
Should the Colonel run out of texts
the following are suggested as especially
suitable for special occasions:
For Mississippi election day-Thou
shalt not kill.
For the gerrymander of congressional
districts in Ohio-Thou shalt not steal.
For any Republican who may envy
the Democratic party the distinction
which Roger @. Mills is winning as an
advocate of free trade doctrines-Thou
shalt not covet thy neighbor's ass. -
For the fourth Of March, '9l, when
the Democratic majority take possession
of the House of Representatives-Your
pleasant places shall be desolate and
satyrs shall dance there.
For Henry Cabot Lodge and the few
Republicans who will remain in the
next Congress-I am like lodge in q
garden OF cucumbers.
For Thomas Business Reed, the de-
scription of Leviathan on the Book of
Job might be quoted entire with great
appropriateness, Gov. Campbell might
be compared to the man that taketh q
dog by the ears, and Grover Cleveland
to Og King of Bashan, that ponderous
potentate who astonished the children
Of Israel by the smsllness of his diadem
and the breath of his girth.
