fake. Years ago DR.. John r. Harrington
occupied the house noar where p. G.

DIR. Harrington moved away from the
place and later died In an insane asylum.
Among his disused and worthless appli-
ances, stored In the large barn on the
estate, was sheet iron, trough shaped
box, and it, with other trash, was dumped
by the new owner OF the pace in a gravel
pit. Here IL has lain for years, until
Sunday, when the three young mon

GINGERBREAD AND POLITICS.

Mr.. Gladstone, the grand old man."
has been assaulted. A virago in a mob
threw missile at the old statesman as
he moved in a political procession and
struck the aged gentleman in the eye. It
was at one time thought that the sight of
the eye would be destroyed as the result
of the blow. but it is now known that it
was not greatly injured. Mr.. Gladstone
has declared that he believes the assault
to have been purposeful and not mere
mischieYous and haphazard cast of the
article that hit him. Probably he is cor
rect in his judgment, for he knows the
atmosphere in which he moved.
But it is very unfortunate for the splen-
did scholar and statesman that he was
wounded by gingerbread; it was hard
crust of gingerbread thrown by woman
that struck the pupil of his eye. Despite
the fact that gingerbread crusts may be
so cast as to deprive one of sight, yet the
fact that the great English leader and lib
eral thinker was, after all these years,
assaulted and hit by gingernut and not
by stone or weapon of steel, will be
used against him. If his eye heals, as it
is now reported that it will, without in
jury to the vision, that bit of gingerbread
will be seized upon by his political enc
mics as weapon of sarcasm and ridicule,
and while any less strongly planted man
it might destroy, Gladstone it will not. of
course, overthrow, though it will shake
him.
Human nature is the same the world
over; it is keenly sensible to ridicule; ii
enjoys its application even when friend
is made its victim. The public will
laugh at its very gods if pictured in a
ridiculous attitude. We may expect,
then, the cartoonists to take up the mat
ter and the comic papers to seize upon ii
and Gladstone's political enemies to
hinge sarcastic assaults upon it. The
piece of hard gingercake and the hard
featured wife who threw it will be associ-
ated in ludicrous way with the name OF
the foremost statesman of England for a
considerable time.

churchly as well as the worldly congre-
cation should be instructed. Nor do we
consider it breach of propriety for the
preacher TO denounce patent deplorable
that lie in community paths; it is within
the lines of the priestly office to warn
communities, as well as individuals, OF
gross evils, and the neglect that tends to
corrupt good morals and debase man
kind. If the preacher has not this right
he is stripped of usefulness to much the
same extent as would be the newspaper,
if it were so muzzled that it could not de-
clare against evils, and do battle for pub
But it is probable that in the outset Mr..
Dixon overstepped all these bounds, and
by specific selection of political organ
ization for castigation, that he dragged
himself out of the cloth and into the
fisticuf arena of very low politics.
Thereby he lost his opportunity to do
effective work against venality. He be-
came spectacle rather than a force: he
made his contest a drawing-card for the
curious, and by his vituperative energy
he repealed the thoughtful. That must
have been the effect-it always has been
in such cases.
1t is evident from the language in which
Mr.. Dixon INDUCED on Sunday that he
has lost temper and reason, and in their
stead has substituted passion and the vi
Imperative weakness of the scold. While
in the thread of his rant there was
much of truth, his denunciations as re-
ported in our Geographic columns were
of character that justify the forecast
that Mr.. Dixon will drop out of sight,
and Tammany will continue in its vici-
Gus ways to dominate in the politics OF
New York; and to declare dividends from
the public funds as of old. A nobler and
more discreet champion of opposition to
Tammany must arise than Rev. Mr..
Dixon; one who is moved by lofty and
Interchangeable purpose, and who has the
courage to do battle with an enemy of the
public veal, and avoid wrestling and
rolling in the gutter with the hirelings o.

The charge against Major Borup, an
attache of the American Legation at Paris,
ought to be probed to the depths and a
thorough exposition made of his guilt or
innocence. It is charged that he received
military plans and documents from a
French sub-official, photographed them
and furnished copies to Germany and
Italy. We are not disposed to believe
the story. Major Borup denies the tale
and protests his innocence to his chief,
the Minister. The French authorities
say with equal vigor that he is guilty.
The honor of the American nation is
smirched if Borup is guilty, as charged.
There is no punishment provided for
such an offense and nothing worse can be-
fall Major Borup than removal from his
post. On the assumption of his guilt that
is no punishment at all; but if he is inno-
cent, then the French authorities owe the

the foe.

When the people in the chamber APP
plauded the Tustees yesterday for APP
pointing J. B. Rodgers Chief of Police,
they echoed the all but universal voice of
the citizens of Sacramento, for there are
a dozen or so who are malcontents.
The Trustees have done the right thing
and we commend them for it. They have
acted i'll the interest of justice, fair play
and in line with the will of the people as
expressed at the ballot-box. 1t is the
sincere hope of the people of Sacramento
that the claim of the right Of the Trustees
to appoint will be held to be in conso-
nance with the law to be interpreted by
the courts.
For it is believed that the right Of Chief
Rodgers to hold under the appointment
will be contested by the preceding incum-
bent of the Office, whose right to contest
no one questions, but whose judgment
in prosecuting attempts to force himself
upon the people, who do not want him,
are not commended and will not tend to
command for him admiration or respect.
The agitation of the matter has done
harm to city interests and its further con-
tinuance will do greater injury. The po-
lice force cannot be so well disciplined
while the right of its head to exercise
authority is challenged. The Chief him
self cannot give that attention to public
business that he would if wholly free
from the necessity of repelling an assault
upon his authority. 1t is to be hoped,
however, that the contestant will be con-
tent with what he has done, and leave the
police affairs of the city alone.

DIXON AND rAMMANY.

Rev. Thomas Dixon of New York has
entered upon crusade of vituperation
against Tammany Democracy, and the
Sachems, Sagamores, braves and war
riors have gone for Mr.. Dixon's SCALP.
having had him arrested and jagged for
libel. He gave bail, and on Sunday re-
appeared in his pulpit filled to the throt-
tie with Incorporate language, which he
is said that some thousands gained adj
mission to his church auditorium, but
that l5, 900 were turned from the doors by
the police. We are left to conjecture
whether these people came to manifest
their support of Rev. Mr.. Dixon, or out
of mere curiosity and to satisfy the in
tional, or that lingering element of bar
barity in our natures that gives us some
thing akin to pleasure to stand by and
see fight go on.
Certainly 1t was not to worship God
that these people came; they did not as
semble to confess their sins and implore
forgiveness; they came to see and hear
how hard the other fellow could strike
back. The Creator, the church, the day,
sin and repentance had very little to do
with the gathering of the crowd. which
gives emphasis to the conviction that the
pulpit is not the place for either political
assault or yindication. The pulpit can
not lift politics up to its level, but can de-
grade the character of the church to par
tisan political planes.
We would not narrow by so much as a
hairs breadth the right of the clergy to
discuss from behind the cushion ques-
tons of public morals; great principles
underlying organized society; truths in
terwoven with the organization of govern.
