The Democratic party would seem - have
established a new test of party loyalty. The
Democratic organ which does not sharply cri-
ici,c the Federal census i, evidently looked
upon M headquarters as unorhodON. The
Democratic National Committee has perhaps
sent a confidential circular to all editors who
are supposed to hc acting i'll sympathy with the
Democracy III ging the ilmpOrianc" OF making
the Federal census an Issue ana indiINtH
ously fighting it. For il John Doc writes 10

nor Richard Roc has been called upon by Il

live may contain O0O0 inhabitants; and fol
all that appears to the contrary, tn" rest OF the
population has been properly attended 10 by
the cnumcratorS. But why should that fact
receive any consideration? Why should il
stand in the way of hasty generalization
aimed at the census. seeing that 10 attack that
great undertaking is 10 attack the Repubcan

THE STLT1N'S DILEMMA.

Great alarm has rcigned during the last week
in official circles at COnstantlnople, where
crisis Of unusual importance appears to be I'M
mncnt. II is stated that for ten days the
gates of the Imperial palace have been kept
closely guarded and all ingrcSS and cgreSS pro
hibitcd. These precautions have been adopted
in consequence OF the threatening attitude Of
the leading Ulema who decline any longer 70
countcnanco or tolerate the innovations and
reforms which the Sultan is striving to inau-
puratc Fourteen years ago they depoSed his
eldest brother. Murad on the prctcXt that he
was mentally afflicted. solely because he had
manifested his intention of tranSplanilng west
ern institutions to the soil OF the Ottoman I'm
pirc and Of cutting himself free from the letters
70 which the rulers of Turkey are condemned
by their fanarical priesthood. For although
nomnally the power of the PadiShah is auto
cratic and his Will supreme, yet his cdict> are
required to he in strict accordance with the
prcccptS Of the Koran rs interpreted by the
lIcma. who unite in their persons both &C
clesastical and legal attributes

alone prevented the absorption OF vanquiShcd
Turkey by victorious RuSsia-thc sultan bound
himself to execute Il number of reforms in con
nccton with the internal administration of his
Empire Indeed it solely on this condition
that Western Europe undertook to intervene in
behalf of his monarchy Since then repeated
remonstrances have been addressed 70 him by
the signatory Powers of the treaty on his fail
ure to carry out his promises Their ambas-
sailors haraSS him almost daily about the mat

ments declare that they are about to withdraw
from their guarantee of the integrity of the

Yesterdays race between Salvador and Tenny
easily takes rank as one of the most eXtraOl-
binary performances that ever occurred on an
american race-track. Two horses could not
he more evenly matched nor could a race be
more evenly and hoty contested. So close
were the two together at the finish-ony few
inches separating them-that hundreds of Ten
nyS champions felt certain that their favonte
had won. The record was broken by this
match, the time of which was phenomenal.
No race for more than score of years has
aroused so much interest in anticipation, and
none could have been more exciting and in
srrltng from start to finish.

"aY SWEETHEART" SPEAKS.

You ask me why comic opera succeeds?
They don't, always. Those that do are
usually witty, tuneful and charming.
All people love music of some kind, and
the majority love that of a cheerful
character. This is the kind that should
enter largely into the score OF a comic
opera. When comic operas have lots of
pretty girls dressed in dainty costumes,
their faces fresh, graceful forms and the
kaleidoscope of colors in their garments
pleases and gratifes the eye, the libretto
witty, with plenty of happy hits at the
times, it entertains the brain, the ear is
nerved by sprightly melodies. the eye is
caught by beauty and color and the opera
succeeds. All these combined make
comic operas entertaining, consequently
successful. Is there any way by which
the success of comic opera can be posi-
lively predicted in advance of its produc-
ton? l know of none. They are exem-
Publications. of the old adage, The proof OF
the pudding is the eating" The ingre-
dents NAV be of the best, yet ii they are
not properly combined and cooked all IS
