IT is almost incredible that lynching
should have taken place so near the
civilized center of this country as Port
Jervis, n. Y. To such an event the
South may well point us, when we
deprecate the violence of her own mobs.
But there is this difference between the
lawless hangings of the North and
South. In the latter the sympathy of
the people at large is with the mobs,
while at the North, the action is COM
mitted by a few irresponsible persons,
and is at once emphatically condemned
by the entire press and people.

THE american Economist pointedly
puts the case thus: Ask lawyer if he
would like all those engaged in other
occupations or professions to become
lawyers and compete with him, and he
will quickly answer no. Ask mer-
chant whether he would not be glad to
see all those now manufacturers or
importers change their business and be-
come merchants, too, and he will speed
lily express his disapprobation of any
such scheme. Yet the free traders want
to make us a nation of agriculturists,
and they ask farmer to hail with joy
a system that would transform all those
who are now his customers into compel
itors.

THE political situation never change

THE political situation never changed
more rapidly than in the last ten days.
Then it looked like Harrison would be
nominated without opposition. Now
he is struggling for it. The sentiment
of the country few weeks ago, seemed
largely for Blaine, but change has
taken place with him also, and it is
doubtful if majority of Republicans
would be for Blaine.
Political history is made rapidly these
days, and dark horse may draw the
prize, which so recently seemed so sure
ly in the grasp of either.
