Too Quick Despairer, Wherefore Wilt
Thou Go?

When Strawberries give place to raspber-
Iies. and the breath OF the new-mown hay
mingles with the breath Of the new-mown
mint, and nature wears a summer smile
and russell shoes. tbs then the Hon. THOMAS
COLLIER PLATT sends for Tribune reporter
and casts off the Republican crown. When
the roses wither and the caucuses have not
yet budded. Mr.. PLATr says TO a Tribune
reporter and speeds the news through the
world: 81 am done with politics. I am
out OF politics. My business takes all my
time" And the reporter records the
words and pretends to believe them.
and Mr.. PLAT pretends that he believes
that the reporter believes them. The re-
porter winks his left eye. the statesman
winks his right. and the old news that
Gen. PLATT has resigned his commission Is
cent among the Republican garrisons and
outside of the breastworks. and everybody
salutes II with wink. Gentlemen who are
familiar with Gen. PLATT's tactics resolve
to keep sharp watch on the fall manpu-
vres. and regard his declaration ofinactivity
with deep dlstrust.
The circumstances under which Mr.. PLATr
kicks away the throne are usually these:

Why Does He Forget His Manhood ?

The Hon. ALANsoN w. BEARD. some time
an eminent clothing merchant of Boston,
and always Republican politician. was ap-
pointed Collector Of the Port Of Boston In
December. 1889. He succeeded the Hon.
LEvERETT SALToNsTALL. q Democrat. not
much more handsome. but several times
less nocuous and pernicious politically.
Mr.. SALToNsTALb is the successor and rep
resentative Of seven generations Of SAL
ToNsTALLs who have been graduated from
Harvard College. and his responses to the
toast. 1.-The President OF the United States"
were couched in the choicest Chestnut Hill
English, and delivered with the grace OK
pected from the happy souls eligible to
membership In the Massachusetts Histor-
ical Society. Mr.. SALToNsTALL was Dem
ocrat. at least until 1885. when q certain
Mugwumpification stole over him. and he
seemed to forget that a Democratic Admin
istration was in power. He was a good
Democrat until the Democrats got into
Office. Then he weakened little. Mr..
BEARD never weakens. He Is lively. in
triguing Republican politician all the time.
in or out OF the Custom House; and the
management OF tho Republican party OF
Massachusetts,, the advancement OF its pol
icies. and the preparation OF Its candidates
are his vocation and his avocation.
Yet in the course OF politics. the Hon. ALAN
SON WILLIAMSON BEARD sometimes for
gets himself and his promises. Not inten-
tionally. We will remind him Of one such
solemn promise. Twas at a dinner Of the
Middlese1 Club. the celebrated Massachu-
sets association for Republican oficehold-
hn
like champagne. as Mr.. EvARrs said OF the
HAYES Administration. and all went merry
as a marriage bell. Mr.. BEARD rose to the
sound Of huzzas and the bubble of Apolli-
naris. He demonstrated to his own salts
faction that the Democratic party Is COM
posed Of SONS OF BELIAL, and then he gave
voice to his own heroic contempt OF office.
"If should 80 far forget my manhood"
cried this veteran Republican officeholder.
as to serve for one hour under Demo-
cratic Administration, I would want my
friends to put me in lunatic asylum"
At least S.120 hours have passed since
Democratic Administration has been In
power. and yet Mr.. BEARD continues to for
get his manhood and to get his salary. What
is the reason2 What Is the matter? Has
the Administration asked him to forget his
manhood for the sake of keeping Mr.
CLEvELAND's life safe from the importantly
OF the Mugwumps? Does the Hon. ALAN
SON w. BEARD consent to forget his man
hood. by request. just to keep GOODMAN and
WINsLow WARREN and the other Mugwump
spoils hunters at bay2
We should like to know what Mr.. Boards
motive is for forgetting his manhood and
recommending himself to Bedlam.

Not to Be Forrotteni

The Hon. BENTON MoM1In1N performed .
service to Democracy on the Fourth OF July
by recalling the attention OF the party to o
duty which is very near the top Of the List
Of things to be done.
On the morning after election day last
November, when the great battle against
Republican Force legislation. with Its sys-
tenn OF bayonets and spies and partisan tri-
bunals. had been fought and won. The Sun
reminded tho victorious Democracy that
although the LoDaE-HoAR Force bill was
disposed OF forever. Davenportism was stu
alive and active,

President In the white House and Democratic House

will continue to operate as long as those
laws are allowed to stand.
They must be repealed. One half Of the
moral effect Of the victory of last year will
be lost If these odlous statutes are not wiped
out with the least possible delay.
They can be repealed by the Fifty-thlrd
Congress. For the first time since they
were enacted. against the earnest and in
dignant protest Of every Democrat who un-
derstood their Significance. Congress is
about to meet with Democratic majority
In both Houses and Democratic President

ideas ON this subject are reasonable and
solid. introduce ut the extra session next

Tho Luck Of Kit.

We have noticed and regretted ten
dency on the part OF certain Mugwump
Journals. to belittle the work which the
Hon. WILSON SHANNON B1ssELL is doing
for civil service reform. The fact that the
Hon. RIDENs RoBERTUs MAXWELL is doing
so much for civil service reform. ought not
to blind fair-minded men to perception Of
the truth that Mr.. B1ssELn is doing some
thing. For some must boost and some
must bounce. so runs the world away. MIR.
B1ssELh is boosting. He makes his vic
Tins move on more slowly. perhaps. but
just as surely as RIDENT RoBERTUs decol-
lates them. and dumps the remains.
We learn from the Evening Post that Mr..
B1ssEL1 has just given the country
striking proof OF his attachment to civil
service reform principles by his &c.
lection Of Mr.. EDWARD MILES GApsDEN
as head Of the Money Order System"
Not only is Mr. GADsDEN an of1ceholder
under civil service rules. but he Is "a direct
descendant Of that CHRISTOPHER GADsDEN
euloglzed by Mr.. BANCROFT as the mag
unanimous, unwavering. faultless lover OF
his country who dared and suffered so
much for our liberties in the dark days OF
the stamp tax. and who is perhaps best
known to Americans as the author Of the
message to friend In Massachusetts,:
Don't pay cent for the damned tea
Since the elevation Of Mr.. JOHN B. MOORE
by Mr.. BAYARD from aclerkshp to the place
Of Third Assistant Secretary Of State. there
has not been such a tribute to the worthi-
ness of employees selected through the
Civil Service Commission. as has now been
paid by the Postmas ter General"
We had forgotten JOHN B. MOORE. but we
will not forget KIT GADsDEN. Hurrah for
KIT! Hurrah for MILES! Sons Of the
Revolution will please apply first.
