DEMOCRATIC DIsCoURTEsy.

in the Democratic party at the present
time. Flowers answer TO the represen-
tatve business men of New York who

FIVE, man 10y man and name by name.
Ald now the wires are flashing the
disgraceful story over the country that
Gov Boyd of Nebraska publicly
affronted the retiring Gov Thayer by
refusing To take his hand on recognize
his presence on taking possession Of the
Office yesterday.
The Democratic press of the country
has outraged decency by its gratuitous
assumption that Gov Thayer would
stand against the Supreme Courts decis-
ion. Now that the event has denonstra-
ted its blind or wilful error, the least
reparation il can make is 10 unite in re-
buke Of the man who, whether prop
erly naturalized citizen or not, has suf-
iiciently demonstrated his unhtness to
hold any office whatever Dy his conspic-
uous ignorance or disregard of the com
monest rules OF good breeding.
But it is too much to expect Demo
Gratis TO unite on anything.

Gov. Flower of Now York is sup
posed to be in the line of promotion.
He wants TO go TO the United States
Senate and is willing in that event TO
vacate the gubernatorial chair in favor
OF Sheehan. For the furtherance of his
ambitions he looks to Hill, and Hill in

the MANUFACTURERS OBJECT.

The difficulties Mr.. Springer has en-
countered with his wool bill are typical
of the troubles gathering thick and dark
about the Ways and Means Committee.
That bill puts wool on the free list, and
abolishes the compensating duties-the
specific duties by the yard and pound
on manufactures of wool, leaving the al
valorem duties unchanged. These ad
valorem duties range from 30 to 60 per
cent. on different manufactures.
The Journal has labored strenuously
to convince its readers that manufac-
turers were sufficiently anxious TO OBJ
tain free wool to lay very little stress on
any accompanying reduction of the
duties on manufactured goods, free
raw material" being their great desid-
eratnm but it appears that the manu-
facturers who have the ear of Mr..
Springer are not of the Journals opin-
ion.
Some of the Democratic members of
ttlift- committee object to leaving the nd
yalorem duties as they stand in the Nc
Kinley law, and urge that no duty
should be left higher than 40 per cent.
They call attention to the fact that the
Mckinley law increased the ad vaiorem
as well as the specific duties; that under
the act of 1884 most woolen goods were
subject TO ad valorem duties of less than
40 per cent, and that D reduction to that
rate, together with the transfer of wool
to the free list, would still leave the man
ufacturers with as much protection as
they enjoyed before the Mckinley bill.
These gentlemen propose TO give the
manufacturers just about what the Mills
bill gave them.
On the other hand other members
whom the manufacturers have been in
terviewing claim that the specific duties
are more than compensatory, and that,
therefore, their entire repeal would de-
prive the manufacturers of considera-
BILE part of their protection. These mem
bers would lower the compensatory du-
ties without abolishing them and with
out touching the ad valorem duties.
There is third faction, the original
Springer faction which stands by the
bill as drafted, doing away with the
specific duties altogether, but without
venturing to go further or touch the ad
valorem.
1t is because of these irreconcilable
differences of opinion that the wool bill,
we are told, is likely to be postponed.
But binding twine is to be postponed
also. These two snags stick above
water. Where will the piecemeal legis-
lators beginI

Whatever causes have led TO the with
which he was certain winner whether
the Republican nomination shall now
fall TO President Harrison or some one
of the innumerable dark horses who are
champing their bits and pricking up
their ears. or whether, as the News
yet hopes and believes, nomination by
acclamation shall persuade the great
Secretary of State that the country looks
10 him with insistance that he be its
next and great President: Mr.. Blaine's
letter has established one thing beyond
doubt or cavil.
If it had been the Judgment of Mr.,
Blaine himself or the general feeling of
the Republican party that that party
could win only with one candidate-and
there may have been times when such a
feeling was prevalent-then the letter
which was read with so much sorrow
yesterday would never have been writ
ten. Though Mr. Blaine may dread the
turmoil of Presidential contest, he is
not the man to refuse himself-his name,
the record of his services, the enthusi-
asm he awakens-to his party if he felt
that Republican victory depended on
him.
1t does not depend on him. The OPP
position is defeating itself, has made its
own success impossible by the fatuous
conduct of its Congressional majority.
With Blaine out of the field President
Harrison's nomination, though not by
any means certain, is increasingly prob
able, and if there are those who think
he will prove a weak nominee or can.
didate easy to be beaten, they will find,
as Henry Watterson keenly points out
in the Courier-Journol that they are
very seriously mistaken.
Harrison's administration has been
conspicuously able and statesmanlike
His observation-disclosures, courage and abil
ity have proved even beyond what was
expected of him. He has grown upon
the estimation of his countrymen. He
will run, if the race is to him, a sure
winner. With Blaine the fight would
have been-may be yet-an easy one.
With Harrison or any one of half
dozen other Republicans who may be
nominated, the victory may not be so
easy but it will be equally certain. This
is a Republican year.

deer forests in Scotland, on which the
Pail Nal Gazette comments significantly.
The total area of deer forests and lands
devoted TO sport i'll Scotland amounts to
1861 ,533 acres--startling figures when
the total area of Scotland is taken into
consideration. The Gazette gives the
following list of the proprietors of the
most extensive forests:
