SOMEBODY says that Hsmlin was left
aud johnson taken for Vice President
because Lincoln preferred the one to the
other. 1t is just like the Republicans q
shift their sins to dead man. Quay did
not do those bad things; 1t was a dead
man. The Republican party did not give
us coatless Hamlin, senseless Johnson
but wise and honest Abraham Lincoln
gave them to us and to history
But who gave us Hayes, Wheeler,
Harrison, Morton, Wanamaker. Dud
ley Tanner Raum2 Lincoln is dead
and it is unkindly, as well rs un
truthful and generally base to make him
a scape goat for the sins Of degenerated
party which Summer, Greeley, Beecher
Phi lips, Sohurz, Curtis and all the mer
with whom Lincoln was associated
abandoned, and which Lincoln would
repudiate II he were living Can any
body imagine Lincoln having Wana

Quay and that crowd about him from
choice or by sufferance2

is an exceedingly interesting one. as It is
assumed to threaten the Republican
party in Ohio with defeat in November,
or, at least the general master work
man Of the knights has served notice upon
the Secretay and Mr. Mckinley, candi-

The executions at Sing Sing will mark
the triumph of the law not only over the
criminals who pay the penalty Of their
crimes, but also over the attorneys who
have 80 long obstructed the course of
justice without reason or excuse, In this
country wide latitude is given lawyer
to save his client from death by every
fair and reasonable means which the
law allows. But criminal annals
do not afford parallel to the
abuses which have been prse
tised to defeat the enforcement of the
electrical execution statute defect in
the HRbeas Corpus act of Congress left
1t in the power of lawyer for any con
demned murderer to stay the exc
cution In defiance of all authority, and
there were lawyers who did not scruple
to abuse that power. No doubt the tri-
ding with justice,would have;been carried

Possibly the smallest musical vaga-
bond that ever walked the streets Of
Wilmington is here this week He is an
Italian boy, carrying a big accor-
dion. This boy cannot speak word of
English, but he gathers in American
colu, and the women are particularly
pleased with him. He plays the accordion
and sings love songs in Italian, and
makes from So to SIS day. Yesterday
afternoon he was singing Rudini songs
on Delaware avenue His music at
tracted a crowd of small boys, and one
Of them gave bin his first lesson in
American ways Tue enterprising little
Yankee stood by gate and as
the small dago came out he
slipped his hand into the musician 8
pocket and got his fingers entangled in
the smsllscOin. The little italian was to
sharp Tor him, however, and the boy did
not succeed in getting any money. 1t
gave the Italian an eye-opener, and pull
ing a small piece Of oil cloth over his in
strument, he walked up the avenue, look
ing back at every few steps TO see II the
young pickpocket was following him.
