AFTER posing as clever and respect
able society actress. Mrs Kendall has
made mistake. In fact she has made
two mistakes. She plays the Second
Mrs. Tanquery" and when IL meets
with disapproval in New York she
attempts TO explain it aud justify
herself in print. II the play is a
proper one and she is right in por
traying en- English mistress on the
American stage, she could have waited T;
she should have been silent Both haste
aud apologies are confessions. No ex-
plantations should be necessary even If
10 were true that mistresses are frequent
enough in English society to deserve or
prompt representations Of them upon the
stage, Mrs Kendall should have allowed
somebody else 10 make the exposition
She has been protesting to do better
things It is not necessary to lift the
lid Of every social sewer. II it were
necessary. Mrs Kendall, according TO her
own choice has been occupying differ
ent position on the stage from that Of a
social sewer litter. It is no answer, but
It is an insult TO intelligence for Mrs
Kendall to urge the plea that "mis
tresses" exist In English society There
are many things existing in the dark
which may not be exhibited before
cultivated and refined audiences in the

WE cannot believe that there are any
Efforts to compromise proceeding from
the repealers in the Senate We cannot
conceive how Democratic legislator
could propose TO compromise with the
"cowardly makeshift' Of the Sherman
Silver Purchase law. AS the law stands
10 is a Republican law, passed, ex Presi-
dent Harrison says as a temporary ex-
pedient" to assist the Republican ma
chine TO consummete bargai between
western protectionists and eastern pro
tectionists TO carry the country for
Harrison. The Democrats caLnot con
sent to recognize and confirm the prac
tice of buying silver bullion in excess of
the amount needed for the currency. The
claims that the government should be
friendly to silver; that silver has any
rights; that as Clark Howell OF At.
lanta says, "Georgians are ready to &C
cept any reasonable compromise, which
will recognize the use Of silver" are
yreposterous The Treasury has coined
or issued 4i0, ,3s2, $50 standard silver
dollars 1t has coined $77 596. 62t in
subsidiary silver. 1t has issued $3.50, p
s6l, 600 in silver certificates. It has
nearly 1000. tons Of silver bullion in the
vaults, representing $3.50. coo, 600 or
more, which it has authority of law to
coin for redemption purposes Any
friendship toward silver, any rights
allowed silver bullion, any recognition
of duty or charity to the silver industry
is a contradiction Of Democratic princi-
pies; it would consent to perpetuation
of fraud upon the people.

In commenting on the condition of
affairs in Europe NJ Zola apprehends
thai he proves that the French are not
seeking a war, when he states that;
In no circumstances shall we take the
offensive. but II we are attacked, well
and good / do not wish TO deny the
existence Of the idea Of revenge, but
there Is great difference between
eherishing an idea aud putting it into
practice You cannot give me the name
Of French statesman Of the present day
who is eager for war. We have no mill.
tary party, and no general who can
claim the right to cover himself with the
laurels Of war We have been more
democratic, broader and more peaceable
in our views. The condition, however,
in which France lives is, ! confess any
thing but an ideal one.
A mans actions are well recognized
proofs Of his intentions. It Is so likewise
with a nation. II a man carries deadly
weapons he has the intention of killing
somebody. He may prove self-defense
afterwards but that Is rare and difficult.
France has been expending immense
sums of money for ten years to gather
and equip a standing army that is the
wonder Of Europe and a curse TO herself
Her attitude and that army mean war
They could not mean anything else. If
they are maintained, any spark, like a
Boulanger is likely to kindle the tinder
that is ready for the torch of little
excitement, only France must either
disband her army or get whipped again.
She will be for war till one or the other
happens.

WE suppose that some of the SO
called Democratic papers Of this state
will be bowling that Senator Black
burn is only crank and an ignorant.
Insignificant fellow, who amounts to
absolutely nothing, except when he Is
invited TO Delaware to make political
speech 10 order TO save the state from
the Republicans Dover Delawarean.
Senator Blackburn is an orator al
most without peer. He is an admirable.
amiable and lovable man; but he is
not fnaucier The Delawarean did
not quote that part Of his speech in
which he admitted chat he is not a
duaneier, His speech is as he declares,
a plea "for the life OF a metal. Those
who know Senator blackburn best and
admire him most would be no more
likely TO consult him on financial
question than on a question OF theology.
Senator Blackburn can talk beautifully
and without limit around any subject IL
is said that he occupied two hours on one
occasion in proving that twice two is
four But for all that he knows as much
about theology AS about finance. He
simply pleads for the life Of a metal "
That's ALL Bat IN spite Of that we are
not under the necessity Of using the
viiuperative epithets suggested above
A mans argument may be- combatted
and overthrown without assailing him
with vulgar personal abuse. Senator
B'acsburn's argument is a special plea.
1t is easily met by the reminder that we
do not need more silver though we do not
mean to stop using what we have. his
plea is useless in the latter respect aud
TOO costly In the former He should
plead for the people not "for metal. "
