Curb Your Zeal.

When Gov. David B. Hill came to Mary
land during the last campaign, after making
n brilliant canvass in Ohio and West Virginia,
and made stirring speech at Cumberland IN
behalf of Gen. McKaig, the Baltimore SIN
endeavored to disparage his efforts and sho"
him TO be a mere selfish politician, by stating
that he was simply advertising himself as a
candidate for President in 1892. The ADvo-
CATE alluded to the matter at the time, and
stated that if the Sun was honest IN It's efforts
for tariff reform it should welcome aid from
any source. There is but one Democrat who
is seriously considered in connection with the
Democratic nomination for President, ex-
President Cleveland, but the ADVOCATE also
remarked in criticism of the Sun that David
b. Hill was one of the strong and great
statesmen of the age, and that Mr.. Cleveland S
cause eould not be strengthened by attempts
10 disparage Gov. Hill.
Gov. Hill has now, in obedience to the
Democratic sentiment Of his state, consented
to succeed Mr. Eyarts in the United States
Senate. This is evidence that he is not
training for the Presidency in 1892, at least,
and if there is anything in precedents the man
who goes to the United States Senate leaves
behind all hope Of the Presidency, for a
President has never been chosen by the
people from the Senate Chamber.
Since Gov Hills consent to 90 10 the
Senate the Sun has found words Of praise for
the Governor of the Empire State. Here is
an extract from an editorial in that Journal
last Monday:
It assures the state of representation IN the
Senate by "A Democrat OF great ability and
experience of affairs. In David B. Hill
the state would have for exponent OF IFS
interests a man in the prime OF life, full oil
vigur, active aud aggressive IN the assertion
OF his convictions, and capable of making
its influence felt at Washington vastly more
than it is at present. The United States
Senate itself cannot but profit by the addition
10 its membership of men who, like Hill, have
risen to eminence as politicians and states
men, not by the weight of their money bags,
but by the force of strong personality appre
ciated and favored by popular majorities.
Governor Hill is himself to be congratulated
on having chosen AN appropriate field for his
political activity. In the Senate he will be in
The thick Of the fight now in progress between
equality before the law and class privileges,
and will have abundant opportunity to win
distinction in the sphere of national politics.
The effect of Gov. Hills acceptance of the
senatorship upon his much talked OF candidacy
for the Presidency in 1892 is matter Of some
interest. Ii will be generally considered,
perhaps, that the Governor means to signify

Is Stanley a Pirate ?

Mr. L. l.. Godkin, in the February num-
Der of The Forum, undertakes to prove that
the expedition to relieve Emn was clearly a
piratical undertaking, since it had the sane
lion of no government and its leader was re-
sponsible to no power. In the course of the
argument Mr.. GOdkin shows that the sympa-
thy for Emin which caused the expedition to
be undertaken vas sentiment born of the
Gordon myth, and he points out the curious
fact that the people of Africa, owing to the
slave trade, have always been regarded as iit
spoil Tor pirates even by civilized nations who
hold no such notions even about any other
savages. Mr.. Godkin expresses the highest
Admiration for SANKEY'S courage and eudu-
rance, and approves Of his conduct of the
expedition. 1t is its legal character only that
he eriticises. Other articles that will appear

A State of Anarchy.
From the Baltimore sun.

From the BALTIMORE sun
In New Hampshire Republican Senator
has been selected to succeed Senator Blair, in
spite of the fact that the people elected a
Democratic Legislature, by the simple expe
dent of excluding from the roll of members
elect a sufficient number Of Democratic Rep
resentatives to accomplish this result. In
Connecticut the Republican incumbent of the
office of Governor refuses to surrender the
Office to the Democratic successor, elected by
ii plurality of over 1000 votes and majority
of %. who has been recognized and sworn in
by the State Senate. In Montana a dual
Legislature and in Nebraska dual executive
are among the fruits of Republican disregard
of the viii of the people, and desperate
determination to thwart that will and hold on
to the reins of power at all hazards. Such
events occurring in any other part Of the
world, in Europe, in Swiss canton, or in a
province of Mexico or South American
republic would be published, and cabled and
heralded to the world as revolutionary pro-
ceedings, as indication of a state of anarchy
and the precursors of civil strife. In this
country they simply serve to illustrate the
desperate straits in which the Republican
party finds itself, and the readiness of its
leaders to resort to the most desperate ani
unlawful means to escape the consequences of
defeat. They seem to sound the death knell
of political organization which, by defying
the people, inevitably invites the peoples
wrath.

The New York Luminary.

The New York SIN is good hater, and
never relents. 1t hates Cleveland and it
hates Childs. of the Philadelphia Ledger
and vents its spleen upon the latter by con
tnually poking fun at his mortuary poetry in
the Ledger. Of course Childs is not respon-
5ible for the wretched doggerel that disgraces
his obituary columns, but it pleases the SIN
TO pretend that he is and to tease him with
out stint on account Of it, But Childs is
not the only doggerel- monger in newspaper
dom. Dana takes hand at it himself.
.'For instance, he carries at the head Of the
SIM, the following:
If you see it in the Sun
It's so.
Advertise It in the SrN
It'll 60"
Mr.. George W. Childs is requested to copy
the above in his Ledger, as a sort of retalia-
ton for Dana's vndiclive gibes upon his
morluary poetry.

good as that of old Sam .Johnson's, whose
biographer put on record the following speci.
men Of his metrical genius:
Here lies good master duck,
Which Samuel johnson trod on,
Ifit had lived, 'twould have been good luck.
