Quincy Is Still the Assistant Sscrs-
tary Of State.
HIS RESIGNATION ONLY A BLUFF.
He Fixed Things Up Satisfactorily In
Massachusetts and Then Goes Back
to Growers Side and Begins His Duties
with Renewed Zeal.


WASHINGTON. Oct. 6.-Those who inn
agined Tor moment that Josiah Quiucy's
resignation as assistant secretary of state
was gen uine hardly knew the man they
were reckoning upon. Josiah is too val :
liable man TO be allowed Co go until all
Republican heads have been CT opped off.
His resignation was bluff. pure and
simple-only this and nothin moro.
False Announcement.
After very much gossip and speculation
it was announced several weeks ago that
he hal resigned this Office for the purpose 0
Of going 10 Ma sachusetts to take charge
OF the political campaign for tue Demo
cratic party. He remained away some
time. but his resignation was not ac-
copied. and so he is still assistant
secretary. He was at his desk In the de-
partment today transacting Official busi-
ness. and it is understood that he VIII re-
main for sometime to come, II indeed he
does not stay there permanently. There
was a lit tie cloud over in Massachusetts
and j. q had to return and take things
into mis- own hands. He salts
factorally arranged matters much
more quickly than he expected and he
then hiei himself back TO his post In
Washington. Mr.. Quincy S'as appointed
assistant secretary oil state within a few
hours after the Cleveland ad-
ministration came into power. aud
since that time ne has had absolute con-
troll in the matter OF appointments to the
consular service. AT the time OF his ap
pointment it was widely published that
he had been selected for the express pur-
pose of reorganizlng the consular SER
vice. and he has done this very effectively
by relieving Republicans to make way
for Democrats.
He Was . Beadsman Only.
Length OF service. special alifications,
ana Other argument that have generally
availed to secure tue retention OF Repub-
lica officials have had no weight with
Mr.. Quincy. and his policy of reform has
been the placing OF Democrats on guard
al along the line. Secretary Gres-
IAN has time and again de-
MED all respons bilitj for certain ap-
pointments that have been made, and,
hen called upon by applicants for con-
sulsh ps. has referred them all to Mr..
Quincy. / is understood that the result
OF his reappearance in the state depart
ment will be long list OF consular APP
pontments to be sent to the senate within
u day or two.
1t was grand bluff, an attempt to de-
ceive the public, that was all.

regrets of Mr.. Lippitt. Tor not being able

LET GOVERNOR FLOWER EXPLAIN.

The Tammany Mayor of this city in series
Of specious magazine articles has undertaken
10 supply his organization with some material
for the coming campaign. The Tammany Gov
ernor of the State would do well to follow this
example, taking for his theme the tax rate for
the current year. which has just been an
nounccd by the State Board of Equalization.
II is n subject that is bound to awaken intense
public interest. and it is particularly apprO-
pirate that be should discuss it, As chief
executive officer of the Commonwealth in whom
was LODI ged the power 10 veto every act OF eX-
travagance committed by Mr.. Crolters Legs
latrue. it behOoveS him to tell the taxpayers of
the State why. notwithstanding the income
of a million dollars or more received from
the Inheritance and Corporation Tax laws,
which a Republican Legislature enacted, they
will be compelled to pay over $500, 600 more
this year than they did in S92.
In order that this increased rate may be
thoroughly understood. THE TRIBUNE presents
in another column the results of it in tabulated
form, comparing the figures with those of last
wear. and showing what additional burden each
county has to bear. Not one escapes An
effort was made to have it appear that this
county's share of the State taxes had been re-
duced, but the attempt is misleading. New
York i called upon to pay TO the Slate
Si,7OS.079 %, or S1,1GG,123 81 more than
last year. True, the city's additional valuation
has been kept down. and ample commentator
has been bestowed upon the Tax Department
and State Assessors for doing SO, but that has
nothing to do with this astonishing increase in
the tax rate. The question for the Governor
10 discuss is not the equalization OF the State
taxes among the various counties, but the IN
crease of them. What is the cause of it?
Why. for instance is the tax for general pur-
poses Sj.114,S74 G6 when it was only SO ,S53,-
1OG &c last year? There was no tax levied in
1892 for the support of the States insane,
but S1,34GOl9Gi is demanded now. Why is
so large sum needed? We do not say that
it is not; we simply ask Mr.. Flower to state
the reason If he cannot find time to adopt
Mr.. Gilroy'S literary plan, let him utilize the
opportunities that the county fairs afford him
for the purpose He intends, it is reported. to
visit Buffalo. Let him explain to the people
of Erie County why it is necessary that they
should pay over $50, 600 more into the Com
monwealth Golfers than they did year ago
why Onondaga should be assessed an increase
of $4,000: why Broome should pay $4,000
more: Orange S27, coo st. Lawrence, 500
900 ; Queens. $4,000; WeStchestcr $4,000,
and all the other counties corrcSpondingly.
The people of Albany will hardly need en-
lightcnment on anything connected with the
doings Of the late Legislature Still. the Coy
ernor had better try to convince them that
state Government which compelS them TO pay
nearly 100000 Tammany tribute is proper
one to continue in power

ism that they have overthrown but their own
deliberately established institutions. They
have not quelled but produced state of
anarchy The lesson that they have taught is
the lesson that their civilization is only thin
varnish. and the example which they have
made is the most mischievous example which
can be offered for imitation. The pretence
which will probably come later that the negro
might have escaped his just deserts through the
processes OF the law, is worthless and indecent.
Whatever the chances Of criminals In some
parts Of the country may be, southern negro
never gets lighter penalty than he deserves.
The legal punishment OF this villain would have
been sure and rigorous. There was not the
slightest risk in leaving him 10 be dealt with
by the courts. 1t was not chivalry but bar
barism which demanded his life without a
trial and at last succeeded in taking 1t with
horrible cruelty.
In vivid contrast with the depravity of the
mob who slaughtered the negro stands out the
conduct of the magistrate who trled TO save
him. Mayor Trout had sworn TO uphold the
law, and he was resolved TO keep his oath.
His courage and fidelity under circumstances
of extraordinary difficulty, in opposition to a
sentiment peculiarly hard TO withstand, are de-
serving of the highest praise. His Is the eX-
ample which Southern communities and their
chosen officials need to initiate. The fury OF
those whom he opposed and for time thwart-
ed has not vet so far subsidized as to let them
recognize the true quality Of his resistance
They are in mood to supplement their bloody
work by killing him and Captain Bird, the
commander of the militia, who obeyed his
orders. 1t is impossible to say what the next
scene NAV be, but whatever it is the lawful
authorities of Roanoke did their duty firmly
and fearleSsly And though their Immediate
reward may be execration and peril, they have
performed great and permanent service.
We are not eager to import politics into the
consideration of such an affair, but it is true
and Just to declare that there is a close relation
between crimes like that of the Roanoke mob
and the theory and practice Of government IN
Southern States. The assumption that it is
virtuous to keep Democracy IN power there by
violence and fraud is a corrupting and de-
structve creed. II dcmoralzeS judgment and
conscience, tends powerfully to Obteratc pub
lie ard private recognition OF the difference
between right and wrong, leads inevitably TO
general disregard of honor and justice. and in
spires every disnScnuouS attempt 10 dem0llSh
by act Of Congress the only protection which
Federal laws have put around the ballot-box.

SOME Moral LEADERS.

II is really quite odd how that variety Of

making a grand rush for the leadership Of
moral revolutions and things e that kind. is
invariably caught in some scheme Of adyer-

he called great moral revolution Tor Prohibi-

steal other peoples books. Finally the issue
OF whether he WAS or was not i thief came into
court on a Sut for libel. and The Reverend
book publisher and great moral leader lost his
case. Ii was officially determined that he was
a thief and he 50 far accepted the verdiJ rs
TO promise that he would not do that particular
kind of stealing any more.
And now here comes another great leader Of
this same great moral revolution, Il party Of
the name Of Demore>t. who received - votes
