Mr. Quay and his friends cannot sup
pose that his defense in the senate will
of itself avail to exonerate him. He
makes an explicit denial and explana-
ton. But all that he says he could
as readily have said long ago, when the
charges were made. The delay admits
of no favorable Interpretation. He
cites Alexander Hamilton, but Hamil-
ton did not allow years to pass before
his complete explanation. He answered
promptly and conclusively, and, at a
cost inconceivably painful, disposed eff
fectually and forever of the charges
against his official honesty. The value
of Mr.. Quay's defense depends wholly
upon his word. 1t is simple denial.
But his previous course and long delay
and the meth cd of his defense have not
encouraged confidence in his simple
statement When charges SO very
grave and circumstantial are made
against a public man he cannot set
them aside by silence, or by calling
them mud-fiinging. He can dispose of
them only by a statement so fortified
by acknowledged fact and affidavit that
no doubt remains, or by summary
suit for libel, which will force the pub
LEGATION and blishment of the facts.

NOTES FOR POLITICIANS

Tin deposits have been discovered
in Mexico. In the strictest confidence,
now. upon your criss-cross, so-help-
you-Peter honor, the discovery is due
entirely to the wisdom and beneficence
of William Mckinley, Jr.-Chicago
Times.
The republican papers treat the
mugwumps as if they had been unfaith-
full to their party and as if Mr.. Cleve-
land was the one correspondent to
whom they all collectively make love.
The mugwumps, however, claim to be-
long to no party and have as much
right to love Mr.. Cleveland as anybody
else.-Brooklyn Eagle.
Mr. Harrison-What's this ''rec-
iprocity" idea of yours, jim? | don't
exactly catch on to it.
Mr.. Blaine-I'1l give you an illustra-
ton. l worked for you in IS, now you
turn in and work for me in '92. That's
reciprocity.
Mr.. Harrison-Humph don't think
much of that scheme.
The anxiety of the republicans to
''relieve the supreme court" is stimu
lated by the reflection that the relief
i}ldtctl Will CItdIt
Offices for Mr.. Harrison to distribute
among his partisans. chiefly congress-
men who have been repudiated by the
people fer their zeal in the service of
the monopolists.-N.Y Y. World
The democracy of the country ac-
cept with enthusiasm Grover Cleve-
lands leadership. not because of his
personality, although he has many
qualities that endear him to men of
character and intelligence, but because
he represents in his own person, as no
other American does, the aspirations of
the people to greater liberty and better
government.-Ev lind Courier.
The republicanism of the admin
tration-excepting, of course, that ex-
emplifed by the secretary of state-is
not the sort which commends itself to
the masses of the party. There is moth
ing robust or inspiring in it. 1t calls up
no recollection of preceding administra-
tions save by way of contrast, and at
the expense of the present regime. No
republican shouts when the name of the
head OF the government is mentioned.
The name of no cabinet official-always
with the exception referred to-ex-
cites any enthusiasm. This is bad for
the party. 1t is also without precedent.

THE CANADIAN ELECTIONS.

From Returns Received the Macdonald
Government Has Been Sustained by a
Working Majority Notwithstanding Lib
eral Gains How They stand.
TORONTO, Ont, March 5.-Up to mid
night returns have been received from
1875 constituencies out of 215 in the
whole dominion, two of which do not
elect to-day. These returns show the
following:
Observation-Disclosures out of ninety
two constituencies elect forty-five lib
erals and forty-four cOnservatives-a
net liberal gain of eleven.
In Quebec sixty-one constituencies
out of sixty-ive elect thirtythree iber-
ais and twenty-seven conservatives-a
net liberal gain of six.
One labor candidate was elected in
Montreal.
In Nova Scotia, seventeen constituent
cieS out OF twenty-one elect four lber-
ais and twelve conservatives; no gain
for either side.
In New Brunswick thirteen constit-
uencieS out of sixteen elect two Hber-
ais and eleven conservatives, net
conservative gain of three.
In Manitoba four constituencies out
of five elect one liberal and three con-
servatives: no gain on either side.
Prince Edwards Island, six constitu-
encies complete, elect four liberals and
two conservatives-no gain on either
side
British Columbia returns indicate
that the conservatives will carry all of
the four constituencies-no change from
the last house.
Returns from the Northwest territory
indicate that the government will carry
all of the four constituencies there; no
change from the last house.
The conservatives have therefore
elected los members and the liberals
eighty-nine. The liberal net gain is
eighteen: and, as it was necessary for
them to make a clear gain of twenty
six seats to defeat the government by
bare majority. it is safe to say that the
Macdonald government is sustained by
anywhere from ten to fifteen majority

The African Slave Treaty Rejected.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE senate
spent more than half an hour consider
ing the African slave treaty. After a
discussion of some general features of
the treaty the senate rejected it by a
large majority. During the secret ses-
sion Mr.. Farwell, who had objected
to the confirmation of the nominal
ton of Mr.. Beatty, to be district
Judge of Idaho, was importuned
by several senators to withdraw
his antagonism. but he declined to do SO.
The objection of any one senator has
the effect of causing a nomination to
lie over twenty-four hours, and as this
is the last day of the congress Mr.. Beatty
will be prevented from filling the office.
The nomination of r. s. Berlin. of
Nebraska. to be member of the Mis-
souri, river commission, was confirmed.

DANGEROUS METHOD.
Effect of the Mckinley Bi1 Upon the Pow
ers of the President.

erS OF the IreSluent.
The attempt of the Mckinley bill is
to vest the president with absolute
power in treaty-making, freeing him
from the constitutional restriction I'M
der which a treaty negotiated by the
executive department must have the adj
vice and consent of the senate before it
has any validity as law.
This attempt is the more dangerous
because of the skill with which it is
made. The method of treaty-making
which has thus far prevailed, which is
the only method contemplated or au-
thorized by the constitution. involves
the entering into a formal contract be-
tween the powers, which on the Part of
the United States must be approved by
the senate after it has been drawn.
Were it otherwise, an act of Mexico, of
Brazil, of Guatemala, of the Cannibal
islands, could be given the effect of
1.-The highest law Of the land over the
United States by the mere consent of
the president.
This is exactly what is now being at
tempted. Under the plan of the Nc
Kinley bill the arrangements are made
between the powers as in case of a
out. The act of a foreign government
has only to be confirmed by the procla-
nation of the president of the United
States to have the force of a treaty
binding the United States.
This, at least, is what has been at
tempted No one in the least familiar
with our system of government will be-
ieve, however, that the congress has the
shadow of authority to delegate to the
executive department power either to
make laws or to suspend their opera
ton. Under the cons titution special
privileges to one country over another
can only be granted by treaty, and
every such treaty must be approved by
the senate before it has any force.
Congress, if it pleases can pass an
act saying that hereafter any law of
the United States may be suspended
by the proclamation of the president.
and that the presidential proclamation
ratifying the act of a foreign coun-
try shall have the effect of a treaty
binding the United States This theory
is embodied in the clause of the Nc
Kinley bill under discussion. but it has
no force as law, because the constitu-
ton of the United States cannot be
altered or set aside by mere act of con-
gress. When the president issues his
proclamation pretending to suspend
law of the United States and purport
icg to give the enactment of a foreign
power the force of law over the United
States his act is not only without con-
stitutiOnal warrant. but is in direct,
plain and open traEsgression of express
constitutional limitations 1t has,
therefore, nothing of the validity of
law, though it may have the practical
effects of it through the persistence OF
the executive department in an I'M
lawful course.-St. Louis Republic.

THE CANADIAN ELECTIONS.

The Result, While Not Liberal Victory,
Demonstrates that the Feeling in Favor
OF Closer Relations with the United
States is Neither Small Nor Confined
within Circumscribcd limits.
NEW YORK. March THE Evening
Posts Montreal special says: IAN in
dependent estimate of yesterdays vote
gives the government a majority of %
to 80. 1t is deeply disappointing to the
party, and especially to the manufac-
turers, who have spent hundreds of
thousands of dollars to maintain the
national policy in power.
The most important facts revealed by
Wednesdays vote are that annexa-
ton is not so unpopular in Canada as
was supposed: that closer trade rela-
tions with the United States are newt
able, and that the liberals will be re-
turned to power at the next general
election.
The Gazette (government) SAYS:
The majority, from information now
at hand, can not well fall below
twenty-five: it may possibly reach
thirty-five. That is q good working
ma iOrity in a house of 211 members.
On the issues before the country, it is
true that more might have been eX-
pected. 1t was learned, however dur
ing the campaign that in many of the
constituencies the commercial union
literature, with which they had
been plentifully supplied for two
years past. had had an unexpected
effect. and there was not in the
period between dissolution and pol
ling day time to counterfeit the speciouG
arguments set forth by the Wiman-
Farrer clique. There were found those
to believe that unrestricted reciprocity
with country whose agricultural
classes are suffering from extreme de-
preston would add so per cent to. the
value of Canadian farms. Others We're
found to accept as well founded the
statements that the difference be-
tween the price of farm products in
the country markets in Canada and
the price to the dealer in New
York and Boston repres anted the loss
to the Canadian farmer from the con-
sentative fiscal policy. This is fact;
to it is due in large degree the fail
ure of the liberal party in Ontario. To
MERCER, perhaps, may be ascribed the
greater strength shown by the opposi-
ton in Quebec. There is an element in
the population to whom this plan of
plundering the federal treasury natur-
ally appealed

.Jup-HandIe ReciprOcity.

Mr.. Blaine's jug-handled reciprocity
does not seem to work as well as he an
ticipated. There was great shout of
triumph among the Blaine organs when
the treaty, SO called, with Brazil was
announced. It turns out that the re-
ioicing was very premature, Brazil not
having yet agreed to the proposed plan.
The government of the new republic is
friendly enough in the matter, but the
merchants of Rio, Bahia and Pernam-
buco are not quite SO ready to break off
their friendly and profitable commercial
relations with Europe. They have
most emphatically protested against the
ratification of the treaty. They prob
ably know, as everybody else knows,
that they can always sell their coffee
to us for cash, in spite of Mr.. Harrison
and the foolish Aldrich provision of
our beautiful tariff. They also know
that they can buy what they want
cheaper from Europe than they can
from us, while our producers are handi-
capped by a most oppressive tariff. The
Blaine trumpet was sounded a little too
soon.-Albany Argus.

A Delinquent Collector of Delinquent
Taxes,

Close, collector of delinquent taxes in

said to be short in his accounts. He
had an office at No. 329 Washington
avenue, and resided at No. 1912 South
Sixth street. where he abandons wife
and two children. 1t is stated that
Close had been drinking heavily of late,
and that his accounts have been in an
unsatisfactory condition for two years.
Lately he has been put under surveil-
lance. Capt. Mccormick, who is in
charge of the delinquent tax depart
ment, states that the Close defalcatiOn
will amount to at least Sc, 900, and will
probably reach a larger sum.

pie will be permitted to forget that
fact. In the republican platform of
1883 these mem orable words occur:
1.-THE republican party is in favor of the use
OF both gold and silver money and condemns
the policy of the democratic administration in
its efforts to demonetize silver"
That was bid for the vote of the sill
yer ring and silver states, and the bid
was accepted. The republicans are
being called upon to redeem their
pledge and are in trouble over it. If
thy live up to their promise they will
lose the eastern states. If they do not.
they will unquestionably suffer in the
west But for the democracy there
need be no embarrassment. A party
that has incurred no improper obliga-
tons can well afford to stand straight
on its record when its adversary is be-
ing torn by conflicting and irreconcil-
able elements. Looked at as a matter
os political expediency, the democratic
position, to which MIR. Cleveland urges
his party to adhere, is one of ideal
strength. But the people, it is sug-
gested, may be deceived, and then
what? Well first of all. it is the duty
OF democrats to assume that the people
will not be deceived. and secondly to be
true to their own principles even if for
time deception prospers. -Broollly
