JOIN TIE RANKS or THE PARIf.

Particular attention is called to the list OF
Republican district association headquarters
which appears in another column Of The IRlB-
RE this morning. The publication OF TINS
list. together with the time ut which each
association holds its monthly meeting. is for
the purpose of assisting in the work OF Dniid-
ing up the party organization IN this county
the absolute imperative necessity o. winch j.
apparent to every intelligent reader who knows
ANYTHING about local politics. There are more
loyal Republican voters in New-lork than ever
before but they are not now in lighting con-
dition. and the sooner this unpleasant truth Is
realized the better. The rank and file are de-
moralzed: new recruits are needed. lncom-
petent men have acquired leadership in some
quarters they should be replaced.
There is abundance of youthful vigor, I'M

should be and can be brought INTO the camp

ton are now wide open to all. Under the new

After passing safely through the shoals and
RAPIDS of the Panama scandal, the kibot Mln-
istry has come to wreck on question OF pre-
roeatiye between the Senate and Chamber in
a matter of financial legislation. The adverse
vote carried a majority of only against the
Ministry. The Ribot Cabinet was formed the
seoopd week in January, and has been in power
lea than three months. After experiencing the
.torm and stress of tho Panama crisis. when
tho enemies of the Government frequently
sought it's downfall, it seems strange that it
should be undone by a comparatively tri1lne
matter. Il Is hardly to be believed that NJ.
Ribot embraced this opportunity to resign for
fear Of unpleasant developments in the near
future.
Nv far the most important of the appoint
mants made yesterday was that of ex-Secretary
psSard - Ambassador Extraordinary and Min
ister Plenipotentisry to Great Britain. 1t is
especially worthy Of note as the first appoint
meut Of an Ambassador under the new law !;
and Mr.. Bayard will be the first official OF this
rank sent abroad by the United States since
ia early days Of the Republic. The appoint
ment Of Mr.. Bayard must be regarded a. large.
" personal one. and as token Of the Presi-
dents warm regard for the chief Of his former
Cabinet. Mr.. Bayard was not q brilliant sue

THE PRESIDENT IND VENEZUELA.

President Cleveland is currently reported to
be seriously considering the expcdiency OF mod
flying his predecessors proclamation respect
ing trade with Venezuela. We believe that
these reports are premature, and that he has
not vet had the leisure required for determining
his policy in relation to the Reciprocity con-
yentions. When he is asked to revoke the
proclamation imposing duties upon Venezuelan
coffee, sugar and hides he will inevitably study
the law which it is his duty to enforce while
il remains unrepeaed; and if he takes pains
TO read it with his keen perceptions us lawyer
he will naturally be disinclined to assume the
responsibility Of violating that law. The dog
matte theorist may loudly assure him that
Venezuelan coffee is now taxed in American
ports. and that he ought to remit the duties
in the interest of consumers; but the Aldrich
amendment in the Tariff act is plain and in.
telligible, and the President, we are confident,
will consider it to be his constitutional duty
to execute the law as it stands.
As the United States Supreme Court has
affirmed the constitutionahty Of the Reel
procity amendment there can be no quibbling
over it's provisions. 1t is law enacted by
Congress, and 50 far as the President is con-
cerned it is mandatory act. 1t provides that
whenever any country exporting to American
ports sugars, molasses, coffee, tea and hides
imposes duties or other exactiOns upon the agri-
cultural or other products of the United States,
which he may deem to be reciprocaly unequal
and unreasonable, he shall have the power
and it shall be his duty' to close the free mar
ket and to rempose duties. When President
Harrison issued his proclamation in 1892
Venezuelan coffee and hides were entering a
free market while American -four was subject
to duty of over 100 per cent, and every other
export from the United States was subject to
very heavy duties. With the text of the Tariff
act confronting him he decided that the con-
ditions of trade were recipocally unequal and
unreasonable, and consequently that it was his
duty to reimpose duties on coffee, sugar and
hides. Now. before President Cleveland can
revoke that proclamation he must convince
himself that it will be reciprocaly equal and
reasonable for the United States to grant free
entry practically to everything which Venezuela
produces while its own -four and exports. al.
most without exception, are subject to OK.
cessive duties in return. We are unable to
perceive how he can justify the restoration OF
Venezuelan coffee 10 the free list with any
rational ideas Of what Is reciprocally equal
