4 SUGGESTION FOR Young TOTERS.

Thousands Of young Americans will cast their
first vote this year. 1t is cminently desirable
that they should begin right 1t would be I'M
fortunate if any Of them through ignorance
should enroll themselves in the wrong party.
But which is the wrong party? Shall they be-
come Republicans or Democrats? IL will help
earnest inquirers to answer these questions II
they will read and compare the platforms Of
the two parties, made in National Convention,
since 1856. That is the right year to start
the examination, since it was in 1856 that the
Republican party, which was born but little
earlier. put forth its first National platform.
We commend this exercise tO young voters for
an obviously good reason. Platforms are to
political bodies what confessions of faith are
to religious bodies They are so many rcvcla-
tons of principles and politics. of character
and tendencies. Their respective National
platforms since 1856 enable any intelligent
young man-who desires to know what his pO-
litical duty is to the end that he may perform
ito pass upon the respective claims of Re-
publicanism and Democracy.
Take the two platforms Of 1S56-the Repub-
lican Is in the interest Of freedom, the Demo
cratic in the interest of slavery The former
pronounces against tho extension Of slavery
into free territory and in favor Of admitting
Kansas as free State. The latter maintains
that "all efforts of the abolitoniSts or Others
made to induce Congress to interfere with ques-
lions of slavery, or to take ncipient steps in
relation thereto, are calculated to lead to the
most alarming and dangerous consequences"
So in 1860. The Republican platform holds
that "the new dogma that the Constitution of
it's own force carries slavery into any Or all
of the Territories of the United States Is u
dangerous political heresy, at variance with the
explicit provisions of that instrument itself,
with contemporary exposition and with legis-

There appears to be ample corroboraticn OF
the charges of blackmail against certain mem
bers of the force assigned to duty on the police
boat, the Patrol. Their conduct deserves
sharp rebuke. They have succeeded, SEEM
Ingy, in preventing the giving of testimony
against them which would convict them on
trial before the Police Commissioners; but no
Soubk of their guilt remains and Superintendent
Byrncs was justified in urging the reOrganiza-

II is given out from Buffalo that the tax
payers OF Erie County are alarmed at the ex-
pensc involved in keeping the National Guard
regiments on duty, and are anxious for the
withdrawal Of the militia. Such a condition
of affairs would be highly agreeable to the
strikers. but it is not to be believed that sober
minded people in Erie County take that view
IF the situation. The maintenance of order
M all hazards is the supreme duty. Until all
danger of violence on the part OF the strikers
ar their NmpathizerS is at an end the military
must he kept on guard, no matter how large
the bill of expense incurred.
That presence Of mind-a quality OF which 4
great deal used to be heard-stl needs to be
cultivated is shown by the reports Of a recent
disaster On the Volga. When the steamer went
ashore, many Of the passengers became need
lessly excited and jumped overheard hoping to
swim to land. In the heavy storm which pre-
vailed. however, thirty were drowned, while
all who were clearheaded and cool enough to
remain on board until the boats could be used
were saved without difficulty. Every panic is
senseless and usually one or two lightheaded
persons lose their wits and are responsible for
what follows. Goodness in times OF peril is OF
the highest value, not only to its possessors,
but also because it may enable them to control
Others and rescue them from dangerous plights.
The Free-Trade cause is making strange
bedfellows. Senator German was not an ar

nomination at Chicago but he did not hesitate
