THE New York Sun must write letters
to itself, Certainly no man in his senses
who knew the course of the Sun would
write as follows:
II the Sun were as thoroughly a Re.
publican paper as it is Democratic. what
course wouldit advise the administra
tion TO pursue from this on, TO stop If
possible the aggravating gains that are
being made with such alarming regular
ity by the Democratic party la the
North and West7
OF course, this anxious inquirer got
just what might have been expected from
the Democratic paper" which supported
Ban Butler in 1884, and did all 1t could
to knife the party's Presidential nominee
In 1888. He is courteously told that,
above all, the President (Harrison)
"shoul abandon the tedious, hopeless and
most dcluslye effort to get himself
nominated for second term. Secondly,
he should abandon, with even
greater decision and earnestness,
the attempt TO establish his family
relatives and his close personal friends
In important and lucrative Offices. Next,
he should endeavor to enlarge his mind
and take In the circumstance that this is
a very broad and varlegated country, and
that indianapolis and the Presbyterian
connection are not the most important
elements that 1t contains" A reasonably
intelligent man might just as well have
asked Senator Quay for an exposition of
Democratic doctrine. Disgust with the
Harrison regime win not account for the
changes In Rhode Island, in Ohio and
Iowa Disgust with the Harrison ad-
ministration will not account for Butter
worth's speech against the tariff or for
the presence of Richard Vaux, a So
called free trader. in the seat Of Sam.
Randall Disgust, for the pres
ent administration win not account
for the recent declarations Of the Demo
cratic State Conventions. The inquirer
should seek information from papers
which support the Democratic tickets
The Sun does not d. that and is conse
quently not capable Of giving informa-
tion concerning Democratic policies. It
is not Democratic paper

THE negro convention at Lake Mo
honk was failure. It's time was con-
sumed with foolish platitudinal re
solves" one Of which was that educa-
tion, including schooling as part Of It, Is
good for the negro. This might be said
or food, including drinks soft and hard.
Such resolution is not likely TO be Of
much benefit to the negro or to the
world. Many others were Of less
importance and many Of positive
harm. One Of these was resolution
recommending Government Savings
Bank. The negroes Of the South lost
millions BY the Freedmen's Bank.
Anolhtr trial Of the Republican political
bank would have an equally disastrous
ending. But Of course 1t would be
efficient to control negro votes for the
Republican party. Thus the convention
resolved itself into foolishness and be
came failure.

There being no copyright law, Of
course American publishers can steal
the works of English authors and use
them in defiance Of the authors wishes.
Mentioning the changes that the pub
fishers, Rand, MeNally & Co, Of Chicago,
have made, Mr.. Haggard says:
Another chapter has been misnamed,
and in one place at least your editor, or,
judging from the style, perhaps sshould
hazard your compositor, has tried his
hand at improving my text, and has
printed under my name words which
never wrote. In short, the story Is
turned into q string Of disjointed situa-
tions. Its life, spirit and meaning are
gone, all Of which is done without
warning to the reader, and | need hardly
add, without reference to the author.
OF course, when the Legislature
Of your country. alone among those of
civilized nations, has hoisted the black
flag, not merely by tolersting established
custom, but publicly, and, after full de-
bate, thereby declaring the labor of
foreign writers to be the spoil OF any who
wish to profit by it, it would be Quixotic
OF you to refuse to sail beneath that flag.
It is a shameful state Of affairs that
Mr.. Haggard complains of. II is doubly
shameful and humiliating when we re-
member that the present majority in
Congress will pass a law to put millions
Of dollars into the pockets Of the rich
and vulgar tin-plate cormorants, and will
refuse to pass Breckinridges bill to
protect such an author as Rider Haggard
from piracy. Have we not too much Of
Ingallsism In our affairs. Has not Repub.
licanism reached its lowest depths when
the presiding officer Of the Senate steals
a sermon from Masslllon and justifes IL
and Congress refuses to pass bill to
protect brains. 1t Is humiliating TO be
called "publlc thieves by Rider Haggard,
when it Is the fault Of the Republican
minority party.
