any knowledge of the Street and Sewer

The apprehension that our Government
would prohibit tho entrance into the United
states OF European immigrants coming by
way OF Canada, IL permission to inspect them
at Quebec were denied us. has shaken the OBJ
stinacy OF the Canadian authorities When
Superintendent STUMP had entered into an
agreement with the British Canadian steam
ship and railroad companies In regard to in
spection. Sir JOHN THOMPSON. X. O. NJ. g..
stood upon his dignity. in tho name Of Canada
and her Britannia Majesty. and declared that
he would not ratify any such agreement.
Thereupon GEARY of California intro.
duced into Congress- bill the passage
OF which would abruptly end all immi-
grafton by way OF Canada, to the det-
riment OF Cnnada's transportation inter-
ests- Now Sir JOHN has taken an attitude in
which the dignity Is less conspicuous He has
made announcement that, while his Govern
ment declines, for certain reasons. to give
formal assent In writing to tho agreement
which had been drawn up. 1t will refrain from
placing any obstacles In the way OF the carry
Ing out OF that agreement We are now at lib
erty. therefore. to send our inspection agents
to Quebec or to any other Canadian port, and
her Majesty's Canadian Ministers will close
their eyes while these American persons in
spect, under orders from Superintendent
STUNT.
1t Is probable that Sir JOHN entertains the
opinion that the policy he has pursued In this
case Is very statesmRnlike: and We guess it
must be. In the Ottawa sense. He stood on his
dignity rs long as possible and then he loos-
ened his gallowses while he let himself down
o neg.
Meanwhile. he may as well boar in mind that
We shall inspect all immigrants who land at
Canadian ports with intent to proceed to the
country which lies alongside OF Canada. and
which knows that. though he puts X. C. NJ. G..
at the end Of his name. he is not as big man
as old STUMP.

Of allegiance to the Democratic platform:
eva the representatives Of the Democratic party Of

gave Victory 10 the Democratic party In 1892 control
q both Houses Of Congress, and made 0RovsR CLsvr
LAID President for the second time"
Ohio. Iowa. Virginia, Pennsylvania all
stand upon the platform. They declare
their faith in the principles which triumph
cd In 1892. That is. they believe in:
I. Tho repeal OF the purchase clause OF tho

z 2. The destruction OF protection and the
enactment of tariff for revenue only.
! 8. The repeal Of the Federal election laws.
q Z. The suppression OF trusts.
Z They believe In these things. and they in
sist that Congress shall do these things.
There Ia no weakening among the Demo-

Two Great Republics.

We cannot conceive OF the occurrence Of
| such Incidents in the United States as we
hear of in Brazil. We cannot conceive of a
grand revolt Of the American navy. or Of
Admiral GHRRARDI or Admiral BENHAM
acting as Admiral MELLo and Admiral
WANDENKoLK have acted or Of an Ameri-
can squadron bombarding New York as the
Brazilian squadron has bombarded Rio
de Janeiro. or of President CLEVELAND fy-
ing from the shells OF our navy as Presi-
dent PErxoTo has fed from the shells OF his
navy. or Of our naval feet demanding the
unconditional surrender OF the Government
We cannot conceive OF our army fighting
our navy as the Brazilian army has fought
the Brazilian navy. We cannot think Of
American officers seeking the aid Of Mexico
against their own country, as Brazilian OFF,
GERS have sought the aid OF Uruguay. We
say that We cannot conceive OF the occur
renee in this country OF such things as have
occurred in Brazil. country which pos
sesses political system In some respects
resembling our own.
Brazil Is q republic like the United States:
its territory Is nearly as extensive as ours;
Its population Is nearly one-third as great
as ours: its Constitution Ia modelled upon
ours: the Governments Of Its twenty States
are organized as are those of our American
States; 1t was founded and Is largely popu-
lated by one OF the strongest and steadiest
races OF Europe. the Portuguese: Its ne
groes. once held in slavery. have been
emancipated. as were ours; 1t has an excel
lent railroad and telegraph system; 1t has
plenty OF newspapers; 1t Is fertile and
prosperous country. with very large COM
merce; 1t has Its share OF able statesmen.
Yet the course Of things In Brazil. ever
since the proclamation OF the constitutional
republic. has been subversive OF the public
peace and OF popular freedom. and the oc-
currences Of the present year are Disgrace
full to the country. We have never, not
even In secession times. suffered from such
occurrences in the United States.
The truth is that the army and navy OF
Brazil are predominant in the Government.
while those Of the United States are entirely
subordinate to the civil power. In Brazil
the Admirals and Generals hold control OF
those affairs which. In this country. are
under control OF the people. through their
chosen political representatives. tho vast
majority OF whom are always civilians. Ad-
miral GHERARDI or Admiral DENHAM,
Major-Gen. ScHoFIELD or Mqjor-Gen.
HOWARD or Major-Gen. MILES. would not
be permitted for moment to exercise any
authority other than that which II conferred
upon thera BY tho Legislation Of Congress.

Democratic Steers,

We take from our esteemed contemporary.
the Omaha World Herald, an interesting
correspondence which appeared originally
in the columns Of our esteemed contempt
rary. the O'Neil Sun. An Iowa Republican.
forgetting the beautiful licking which 1t is
the habit OF the Hon. HORACE BoIEs to give
to Iowa Republicans. offers to buy certain
cultivated Shorthorns and Herefords OF q
Nebraska Democrat. and proposes to buy
them cheap because these are Democratic
times" The Nebraska Democrat who has
the happiness of owning this fine herd Of
cultivated steers, writes back to the prema-
ture person from Iowa that prices will 20 up
and not down in Democratic times" and
that he prefers to stick to his steers until
the present Administration has had time
to wipe out the Republican rottenness."
We salute with respect and liking this
Nebraska farmer. Mr.. JAMES SKIRv1Na
May his steers be as numerous as the cattle
on a thousand hills. and their paths drop
fairness. Mr.. JAMES SKIRvINa knows what
he is talking about. When the Democrats
have wiped out Republican rottenness:
when the robbery Of the great majority Of
the American people for the benefit of the
few has been stopped. the price of steers
must 60 up. This advance in tho price Of
steers Is only one Of thousand advan-
tages that may be expected from the vindl-
cation OF the Constitution.

Republicanism Takes the Stage. y

The pretended zeal of the Republicans
against the repeal Of the Federal election
laws is as edifying as q mint julep in jan
| uary. The chief opposition to the repeal OF
the purchase clause OF the SHERMAN act
comes from the Silver Protectionists. the
Republican Senators Of the silver States |:
and the whole Of that illustrious piece Of
legislation Is one of the triumphs of Repub-
lican craftsmanship. How smart the Repub-
licans thought they were when they passed
that act. They thought they were deposit
ing the Democrats In a cavity. as the Hon.
WILLIAM EVERETT would say. They have
no particular Joy in undoing their own
work. 1t is mighty hard for them to have
to vote with the Democrats against the
cowardly makeshift, that was thought 80
shrewd continuance of nickel-in-the-slot
craftsmanship. The Democrats will get all
the credit OF repeal; and 1t Is not pleasant
or customary for the Republicans to be
virtuous for the benefit of the country or
without an opportunity to throw stones at
the wickedness Of the Democrats.
Therefore. behold great issue. Behold
the Republicans trying to take the rope
from their necks and to bind it as band Of
unity around their waists. Behold Tom
REED. who hasn't had q waist since 1875.
rushing forward In pretended fury and
making himself palisade OF adipos-
ity around the lilliputian corpus of the
Hon. JOHN INTIMIDATION DAVENPORT.
Behold the Tribune, the sober. the solid.
the conservative. the sensible Tribune.
rushing wildly into the dark backward
and abysm Of time. living over again the
days Of the Kansas and Nebraska Bill. and
almost ready to make sealed proposals for
Free Soil Behold the Hon. JULIUS CESAR
BURROWS, the Calliope Of Kalamazoo. play
ing that he Is the Hon. ELI THAYER Of Mas
sachusetts and Kansas. and that the BUSH
whackers are after him with the same per-
sistence and power that Mr.. THAYKR has
recently displayed in pursuing the Massa-
chusetts Abolitionists. Behold the Hon.
SERENo EMpYREo PAYNE playing that he is
CHARLES SUMNER. and that Speaker CRISP
Is PRESTON SMITH BROOKS.
This Republican romanticism. this me-
deval revival. this tournament OF the
Bloody Shirt, is excellent fooling. Not
piece more amusing has been put upon the
stage by rare old Tom REED. If the clock
could be put back forty years. perhaps the
Illusion might illude. But time is cruel to
this ancient prude. this Republican party.
and these tragical grimaces move the house
only to catcalls.
