The Hon. Levi P. Morton is to have
walkover in the. New York Republican
State Convention. Indeed the prospect is
that before the convention assemblies,
every other candidate will withdraw and
allow Mr.. Morton to be nominated by
reclamation. The only criticism of Mr..
Morton's candidacy that we have seen is
that he is favored by Mr.. Platt. or to put
it in the parlanee of the mugwump
journals that he is Boss PIatt's man. !"
But if Boss Platt selects a man VINO is
acceptabl to the vast majority of the
Repu blican voters of the state, as the
primaries show that Mr.. Morton is, it
would seem to follow pretty surely that
Boss Platt had selected him forthat very
reasou-in other words that he had only
got on, to the popular train. Bosses who
simply follow public sentiment and
give the party what it wants are not
dangerous.

Mrs. Helen Gouger, the prohibition
orator, who sued Congressman Elijah
Morse of Massachusetts, because be
charged that she was under pay of the
Democrats, gets nothing out of her act
ion, but some big lawyers fees and
court costs to pay. The jury seem to
have taken the ground that inasmuch as
Mrs. Gouger was in the habit of giving
hard blows she must take them without
making fuss. AS matter OF fact, Mr..
Morse's attacks upon her never did her
cents worth of real damage, and never
diminished her political influence par
ticle.
The indications are that Breckenridge
has been beaten in his attempt to get
himself renomi mated, and that the next
candidate from his district will be MIR.
Owens. Yet, though beaten, the
strength he displayed was remarkable
under the circumstances. After the
developments of the Washington trial,
it seemed impossible that he could1have
the assurance TO present himself as a
candidate, yet he not only did that but
he came very near capturing the nomi-
nation. His defeat doubtless puts an
end to his political career for the Office
holders who were his chief reliance,
will very quickly ally themselves with
the successful candidate, glad of the
chance. very likely, to desert candidate
whose support involved SO much humili-
alton and dirt-eatitng.

1t seems that the Third Party Prohi-

election, as against 1864 two years ago,
a falling off of about third. 1.-THE Pop

characteristic pluck, Lieutenant Peary
concluded to remain another year, hop

The protest from the Maine press
against any more tinkering of the Aus
tralian ballot law seems to be we'll nigh
universal-a the reasons against, prac-
tically the same, that further
changes would produce further confus-
ion of methods. and consequently more
errors. There is nobody who is COM
petent to vote who cannot comprehend
the present method of marking the bal
LOT if he will only give it little study.
Intelligent voters have failed simply be-
cause they did not take the trou BILE to in
form themselves as to the method before
they went into the booth, and not from
any inherent difficulty in the system.

Jan took the pipe from his mouth ana
listened. Suddenly a shout, accompanied
by the report of a number OF revolvers,
startled the neighbors far and near and
there issued from the gulch black mass
which shortly resolved Itself into a
body OF horsemen bearing down towards
the town.
Jan watched them lazIly. thinking of
the money he would be able TO raise from
them.
Nearer and nearer sounded the clatter-
ing OF the horses hoofs. until Jan could
almost hear each separate football, and
presently tiey slowed up and stopped
outside hc door.
One Of them, burly fellow, asked him
for a certain kind OF liquor, and after
the keeper OF the tavern had taken IL

smile was suddenly transformed to a
look OF horror, for he found several re-
volvers levelled at him.

Before the cavaicade moved on he
had been obliged to see the destruction
of large part OF his wares, and the
unfortunate man was left standing amid
confusion Of broken kegs. reckless
bottles and pools OF wines and liquors,
wringlng his hands and calling down
maiedictions upon his prosecutors, who
were now continuing their mad career
down the street.
The cowboys soon came in sight OF

building.

siackened, and they finally came to a
standstill before the broken gate

He tried to think of a means by which
he could delicately and acceptably de-
liver his message of charity, but was
obliged 10 make known his errand as
simply as possible, trusting TO the in
spiration OF the moment TO help him
out.

hastily on one elbow as he spoke.
