When Walter came to see her he had
almost the same ardor as on the proceed

Harmony in the Administration.

When Democratic organs undertake. 4
palm themselves off as the moutbpiecei
Of Republicans, they are sure to make
ridiculous mistakes. For some days the
fiction has ben going the rounds of the
Democratic and nugwump press that
President Harrison disagreed with Mr.
Blaine concerning his Pan-American
policy. So persistent has been the cir
culation Of this falsehoOd that the Asso-
c;ated Press has considered it necessary
To contradict It by reproducing the letter
a the President to Congress, which by
mistake had been credited to Mr. Blaine.
The correction was really not seeded, so
far as the administration is concerned,
a. the public long ago learned the va'ue
Of the false aud partisan statements made
by certlin journals, but as an opportune
bit Of sarcasm it can scarcely be sur
passed.
OF piece with this absurd report Of
differences in inc Cabinet concerning
Mr.. Blsine's Pan american policy, is
that which follows on its heels Of differ
ences with regard TO the policy to be
pursued in Behring's Sea. and attribut-
ing to Mr. Blaine desire to copy after
Mr.. Bayard. 1t is only necessary to
suggest, in the expressive slang of the
times, that "Mr. Blaine is not that kind
Of a hairpin." Audacity. rather than
timidity. has been one of tbs most COR
spicaous features of his political career,
but it has been an audacity tempered by
the highest wisdom, nor has he shown
undue Partially for the opinions and
prejudices Of Engishmen. be they lords
or dSkes or plain commoners.
His prompt settlement of the Samoan
affair, after Bayard and Gle 7eland had
involved the nation in an almost inextri-
cable middle, should protect him from
such a charge. Nvither Mr., Blaine
nor-the President is likely to involve the
country in any trouble with England,
for the simple reason that their policy is
Numerically opposite to that of Bayard

They know what the rights of the Amer
loan people are, and enforce them prompt
y without Bringing or the sham buster
which must inevitably follow subservi-
ency or timiaitg. The English Govern
men. is probably Thankful to the admin
isiration for the course now being pur-
sued in Behring Sea, as it will show the
eontumaclous colonists the folly of disre-
garding the ad>ice give them from

to sound notions of finance; but che

own people rejected him, though he was
the greatest among them, and the coun-
try, in 1888, confirmed the Judgment
The Republican party could well af-
ford to be in a minority in advocating a
sound currency. assured that the sober
sense of the people would, in few
months convert that minority into an
overwhelming majority; but no party can
afford, either as q matter of principle,
