Supreme Court and the Seal Dispute.

Itis absurd 10 talk Of the submission of
tho Retiring sea dispute to the Supreme
Court IS an insult TO any other department
Of the Government secretary Blaine will
do well to restrain his pen upon that point
before he proceeds to castigate the British
foreign Office or immerse it, chief sin boil
ing oil, or something Of that sort" lie
will do well to suspend further utterance
on his part until he hears from the Supreme
Court. II that court shall be Of opinion
that it has jurisdiction it is safe to say that
il will not be deferred from the performance
of its constitutional duty by the fear OF
hurting the feelings of the Secretary OF
state. 1t is not question of etiquette or
Of courtesy, but Of legal right. And the
British Government surely cannot be re-
preached for having preferred an appeal 10
our own courts rather than continue an
endless bandying Of words, dignihed by
the name OF diplomatic correspondence,
the failure of which would leave but one
alternatiye-Open war.

Ir is gratifying to know that the action OF
the Alliance members Of the Kansas Legis-
lature, assembled in caucus on Monday
night. assures the defeat Of ingalls, as
candidate for the seat which he now occu-
pies in the Senate. The threatened rupture
among these members was not realized,
and when the Legislature met on Tuesday
they proceeded to elect the men whom they
had the night before chosen for the diff
ferent positions to be filled. The SEN
atorship is soon to be decided, and the
harmony now prevailing IN the ranks OF the
Alliance representatives, who control the
Legislature, signifies the election of some
man who is in sympathy with the objects
Of the farmers organization. With this Or
ganization Ingalls, is in thorough disfavor
from the course which he has pursued IN
the Senate in connection with the great
economic questions which have been agita-
ting the public mind. The fate that will so
soon oyerlake the senior Senator from
Kansas will not excite the commiseration
If any persons in the Union except those
who have admired him for the persistency
of his hatred Of the Southern people, and
for the active employment of bitter and
POISONOUS tongue, which, In its total lack
Of conscience and principle, has spared
neither the living nor the dead, however
exalted in all that yirtuous men love to
praise and honor.

New Iotk Times.l


The Parnell business has reached that
most dismal stage of political controversies
IT which they degenerate into tissues OF
veracity." II was almost inevitable that
this would be the result when Mr.. PARCEL
comm tied the mOnstrOus breach OfdeeOrum
involved in making public his account OF a
confidential conversation with Mr.. Glad
stone on Irish affairs. II was more than a
breach OF dec0rum; it was a breach OF faith
that made it impossible for any British
patty or faction to cooperate with any Irish
partv under Mr.. ParnelPs lead, because he
had shown that nobody could trust him.
When such conversation as that related
by him occurs without witnesses, and either
party aftcrward betrays the confidence
reposed in him by the other TO
the extent Of reporting it in public,
here 10 always an irreconc liable dii-
ference of recollection, and public
Judgment commonly goes against the spite
ful person who has broken faith. Moreover,
Nr. Parnell appears 10 have on his hand an
issue of veraclty with Mr.. Mccarthy As wei
as with Mr. Gladstone.

IT Is not surprising that Mr.. Blaine
should show marked resentment at the at
tempt Of the British foreign office to will
draw the Behring sea controversy from the
supervision of the State Department and
transfer it to the more impartial atmos.
phere OF the Supreme Court. 1t is natural
thst the Secretary should feel ahronted'
but at the same time the feelings that In
fuenced Lord Salisbury, are precisely those
which the circumstances would prompt in
one occupying his position as the repre-.
sentative of the British Government.
Whether the Supreme Court refuses TO in
terfere or not, Salisbury has clearly
shown how little confidence he has in the
Judgment Of Mr.. Blaine or the motives
which have led the latter into long and
involved correspondence, signifying moth
ing, when the whole question could in the
beginning have been submitted in the
shortest order to arbitration.

Pettiness of Harrison.

NtW 7 Ok IHT.T
IL Is said that the pettiness OF the Harri-
son family is shown in the refusal TO invite
TO receptions at the White House those
newspaper correspondents at the Capital
who have ventured to criticise the present
Administration. We are not surprised at
this exhibition Of conceit and bad manners
on the part OF the President. 1t probably
never occurs to him that it is only the Office
that he holds and not himself in person that
is Of consequence in the matter.

THE Washington Post in an article in its
Wednesday issue, entitled "An Attempt at
Snubbery," takes the managers OF our As
ISOLATION ball sharply to task for their re-
fusal TO send President Harrison an invita-
ton TO De present. The Post has probably
forgotten the gross discourtesy with which
the President in the fall of 1889 treated q
number OF our most prominent and repre-
sentative citizens who proposed extending
TO him all the Inequalities Of the city. TIE
TINES il not aware of the motives which
Influenced the managers Of the Association
ball I'm their determination to with
hold an invitation to the President
but in his personal bearing when he was
last in Richmond they have a full justiflca-
ton for declining to make him the recipient
Of courtesy which his former conduct
shows him incapable of appreciating'
Whatever may be the custom Of other com
munities, the people Of Richmond at least
are not in the habit of going out OF their
way TO invite even President to their social
entertainments when he has exposed HIM
self TO just criticism by his indifferent
manners on former occasion.

new fOik NOuiln tItlal- AtN e. tlSti.
There are two explanations 10 be offered
Tor Senator Quay's new Federal election
bill. either Of which would explain its in
PRODUCTION. and both OF which probably fur
nshed part Of the worthy statesman's
motive. The bill NAV have been introduced
simply to please the Senator's Bourbon con-
sttuents, who complained a great d.ll at
hs action in side-tracking the Lodge bill
lastyear. People Of this stamp are invited
TO take still greater pleasure from the fact
that Dir. Quay's measure is more harsh than
auy Of its predecessors, and talks about the
armed forces OF the United States the
suspension Of the writ Of habeas corpus"
and SO forth, like q real bsyOuet bill. The
other possibility is that the astute Pennsyl-
vanian and such OF his fellow-SenatOrs as
do not want any election bill put into enact
ment, really wish to substitute this meas
ure for the less truculent bills Of Mr.. Lodge
and Senator HOar, in order that Senators
who have voted for the other bills viii have
ample excuse for casting their votes against
the entire scheme. As we have sand, II is
probable that both motives figured in the
Senator's action. The meaning of it all is,
however, that the majority Of the Senate
neither wishes nor intends to pass Federal
Elections bill, but simply wishes to cover
ITS retreat as respectfully as possible.
