EMIT HARRISON.

Mr.. HARRISON will retire from the
March, regretted only by few place
holders. He is not popular man, nor
has he proved to be a safe man to whom
to entrust great responsibilities. He
has used the federal patronage to
further the ends Of his personal am
bition. He has done this to greater
extent than any previous president,
and his unScrupulOuSneSS in this regard
has had the effect of undoing much of
the grand work of GROVER CLEVELAND
in behalf of civil service reform. Aside
from this abuse of the appointing
power Mr.. HARRISON has made fairly
honest president. He has acted up to
his lights, but his lights are dim. He
is a man of mediocre ability, and
this mediocrity has been disastrous
to the country. 1t prevented Mr.. HAIR
RIsoN from realizing that the country
was already suffering from too much
tariff taxation i'll behalf of few ia
vored interests. and so the infamous
MCKINLEY bill was sponsored by his
administration. He was, moreover, I'M
able to realize that the country is not
land, praise God! never will be- in a
temper to tolerate federal bayonets at
IFS voting booths; and in his foreign
policy also Mr.. HARRISON exhibited in
capability, which, in the case OF Chill,
at least, came near involving this coun-
try in a dishonorable war.
He was nominated four years ago as a
makeshift; he was renomlnated this
year by his own appointees. He was
never the right man for president, and
his most distinguished service to his
country, barring his honorable war
record, will be his retirement from the
presidency next March.

factor in determining results. The
issues were placed before the people
exhaustiveiy, but with little bitterness
or personal feeling, and, as a jury sworn
to its duty of returning verdict in ac-
cordance with the evidence and lmaf-
fected by prejudice, the great body OF
voters proceeded to its task of determn-
ing what shall be the economic policy of
this country during the next four years.
Such campaign furnishes very
gratifying indication of progress III
popular intelligence. When shouting
gives way TO thinking, when hurrah
gives way to reason in affairs political,
the country may be accounted safe, no
matter what the face of the returns
shows. Danger turks in the emotional
excitement which sometimes SEXES
nations, as well as individuals. The
thoughtful campaigns national bless
ing. Let us hope that it has come to
stay.

Roland Graeme, might" Agnes

bert. New York-It is unfortunate that,
while there are so many seers, prophets
and poets of woe, there are also some
clear-headed, sunnyheafted people who
can see that the world is out of joint
without despair of its being set right.
Miss Machar is evidently ore of these.
She has a story to tell-and charmingly
well she tells (which shows how
bravely and blithely many human hearts
are responding to the throb of brotherly
sympathy, and breaking down OBJ
stacles, both outward and inward,
i'll determination to help their fellows.
In developing this theme Miss Macbar
deity makes occasion to portray va
rfety of interesting characters. and
shows her skill at the very outset by
scene between two of the principal per-
clergyman. Rev. Cecil Chillingworth, and
her hero, Roland Graeme, the knightly
spirited young journalist who would
ride abroad, redressing human
wrongs" Following closely upon this,
other scenes and characters come rap
idly upon the stage. little Cecille Trav-
ers, beautiful child in poverty-stricken
garb: Rev. Mr.. Alden. clergyman OF
the hearty, Christian, hopeful kind;
Mrs. Travers, the dying mother OF
the quaint little maid; Nora Blanchard,
a lovely and womanly young woman,
healthtul of soul and body, who deyoteS
herself to the poor young mother; Mr..
Alden's delightful family, including
the charming Grace, through whom one
instinctively feels the entrance OF a TO
nance for Roland Graeme; and an
afternoon tea, which collects more OF
the dramatiS persona. Before the
reader has passed twenty pages the at
tention. not only. but the interest and
sympathy, are laid hold on with gentle
but sure hand, and the lives of these
people are all seen TO be Intimate
ly interrelated, although some of
them are strangers to one another.
This story Of Roland Graeme. Knight"
does certainly show a practical famili-
arIty with the ''Seamy side" Of life. and

society be-as they so often are, these

DAVID Il. HILL.

In the glory of today DAVID B. HILL
must have liberal share. He has ST.
fenced his Slanderers. COMPOUNDED his
calumniators. He is Democrat of
Democrats, and he has again earned the
gratitude of his party. For four years
he has rested under the utterly unjust
accusation of treachery toward the
Democratic national ticket in 1888. This
has been his opportunity TO refute this
persstentaSpersion on his party loyalty,
and he has done 1t grandly. completely.
He was an honorable aspirant for the
presidential nomination at Chicago, but
he bowed to the viii of the convention,
and from that day until the glorious
triumph of yesterday GROVER CLEVE-
LAND has had no more loyal. earnest
and tireless supporter in the entire
country than DAVID B. HILL.
Honor where honor is due. DAVID
B. HILL did not lose New York for
CLEVELAND in 1888, nor did he alone
win it for him yesterday. But he. did
his utmost TO elect CLEVELAND in 1888
and again this year; and DAVID b.
HILLS utmost is good deal.
