THE AGONY AT LlVADIA.

Doubt, uncertainty. anxiety and dread
the news from Livadia contains little else.
Surrounded by the members OF his family
the Gar lies dying. and the doctors issue
their melancholy bulletins with the dreary
monotouy familiar to those who have
watched at deathbeds. The end is inev-
liable, but when will it come? A flicker
of hope springs up from the announce
ment that the exema of the legs and feet
has been reduced by tapping; but every
one knows that the Serious fluid will accu-
muiate as fast as it is drawn off, and that
surgical operations diminish the scanty
resource of strength which the patient
retains. The time has passed for diagnosis.

stage and has entered the constitutional
phase. which involves all organs in one
common paralysis. Increasing lassitude
and drowsiness indicate that the whole
system is getting tired and Incapable of
performing its functions. The uneasy
torpor is a preliminary forerunner of the
sleep OF death.
Meanwhile everything is being done in
order and respectful quiet. Prayers are
being offered up in all the churches for the
dying ruler; genuine sorrow seems to
pervade all breasts. The clamOr of the
nihilist has been silenced and the er0ak of
the bomb-thrower is heard no more.

agony. Loyalty has gone SO far that, as
the New York stock brokers refused TO
permit dealings in shares on The day OF
Lincoln's death, the Exchange at Odessa
has stopped specializing in paper rubles
until the crisis is over.
Every measure has been taken to insure
the smooth accession of the successor to
the throne and his tranquil assumption Of
the reins of authority. His brother

PULLMAN METHODS.

The Discrimination of the Pullman Car
Company 10 submit a case to court that
it does not know to be friendly is Illus
trated In the application of that company
for a change of venue from the court of
Judge Gibbons on the ground of prejudice.
Judge Gibbons had written a book on the
ownership of land by corporations which
the Pullman company considered un-
friendly TO their cause. Some convenient
person was therefore found to make aft
davIt that the Pullman Car Company
could not get justice in Judge Gibbons
court. There is perhaps more in this
affidavit than appears on the face. The
Pullman company may be like the honest
Irishmsn who had got into trouble and re-
fused TO be pacified by the assurance that
he should have justice. Justice under the
circumstances was precisely what be did
not want. The man who swore that the
Pullman Car Company couli not get jus
tice in Judge Gibbons court may have
been influenced TO do 80 by The fear that
it would get justice in that court, and by
the belief that there were other courts in
the State where justice would be tenn
pered to suit the occasion.

MUNICIPAL POLITICS.

The New York World has the following:
Municipal government should be conducted
wholly on business principles. National politi-
cal issues have no more bearing on the affairs
of the local corporation than on the private
business OF any of its citizens The paving of
streets, the building of sewers the appointment
and discipline of policemen and fremen, The
supplying of water-these and like things COLI
stitute the business of a municipality. mans
belief concerning the tariff. or free coinage. or
any other subject OF national Importance can
not possibly affect his capacity for transacting
municipal business.
The World has never betrayed ieanings
toward mugwumpism in politics. 1t is as
thoroughly partisan as is consistent with
self-reSpect. When it declares that ma
tional political issues have no more bear
ing on the affairs of the local corporation
than on the private business of any of its
citizens it strikes severe blow at the
party whose national politics it supports.
Tammany has been built up and kept In
power by the Democratic yaTty OF New
York. GOOD citizens have often omblned
to overthrow it, but the devotion OF voters,
largely foreign born, has always brought
Tammany out victorious. Even the terri
Bile exposure of the Tweed ring, more
than twenty years ago, had but tenn
porary effect. The organization cannot
stand on its performance as local gov
eminent. The secret of its power lies in
the fact that majority of the voters in
the city are Democrats, and will stand by
Tammany because il is Dem ocratic.

CALAMITY HOWLERS.

Our Democratic friends often refer sar-
castically to Repu blican calamity howlers.
They say that the Republicans will not
permit good times to come so long as they
can help it. An example of the tendency
to predict calamity is found in comments
in Republican papers on the recent EXPORT
of gold. But the Democrats should bear
in mind that an adverse balance Of trade
is one of the consequences predicted of
Democratic success. 1t is condition
which always accompanies free-trade
legislation. During the entire period of
the existence of the tariff of 1876 the bal
ance of trade was against the United
States. There is an unbroken column of
adverse balances between 1916 and 1857,
with single small exception. Naturally
when Repu blicans see gold going out of
the country at season of the year when
1T should be coming in there Is feeling
of dread lest the advent Of the free-trade
party to power shall cause q steady de-
crease of exports as compared with i'm
ports. The fact that wheat and cotton
are low reduces our ability to pay for our
imports of finished goods with exports of
raw material. The verdict of the people

LEGISLATORS SALARIES.

In the heat of the campaign for good
local government IN San Francisco, and
for defeating the scheme OF robbery
planned by the railroad company, certain
other points of the contest have been nat
urally neglected. Hardly any mention
has been made of the several consiitu-
tional amendments that will be submitted
10 the people. yet some of them are of
material importance.
Amendment 9, as it will appear on the
ballot, proposes 10 increase the pay OF
mem bers of the Legislature from SIS day
to $1,000 a year. Under the constitution
legislators are allowed pay for only sixty
days, a total of $3.50 each, or an aggregate
of S57, 600. The amendment would make
the aggregate $4,000
The Legislators of California are now
among the best paid in the Union. There
is no earthly reason or excuse for this
proposed increase. 1t is no argument to
say that the present limitation of sixty
days pay is any hardship. Sixty days is
more than enough for all the honest leg
islation that may be required. Ii the
Legislature exceeds that time it is usually
owing either 10 some job which is being
urged through or TOO much talk and too
little work. The people do not want to
pay anything more for thai kind of service.

IN THE COMMON DEFENSE.

Nothing so tends to united effort as the
sense of common danger The fact runs
through animated nature. Even the lower
animals combine for defense against their
enemies. Throughout human history the
voice of domestic faction has been stilled
by the menace of foreign foe. And it is
also an historical fact that those people
who have lacked this instinct OF self-pres-
ervation, whose internal feuds have pre-
vented them from joining in the common
cause against outside aggression, have lost
their national existence.
The people of San Francisco are men,
aced by common enemy. or rather by
combination of common enemies. These
foes have the organization and political
sense necessary to hold them together 10
united attack upon the community. Boss
Buckley is the opponent of Boss Burns
only within certain narrow lines. Each
has his chosen band of followers to main
tain and reward, but both have a common
interest in making the public foot the bills.
Both also have a natural and cultivated
affiliation with the railroad company as
the third member of the unholy alliance
for the spoliation of San Francisco.
The question is whether the decent
anu lnteiilgenG people OF tDlS CITY Will
profit by the lessons of history. Will they
unite for self-defense against these CON-
mon enemies? Or will they permit their
national political differences to divide
them so that they will fall an easy prey to
their rapaciOus assailants? United they
are strong enough TO sweep these plumber
ers out of existence as powers in the man
agement of local affairs. Divided they
simply become the sport of the bosses and
the railroad. Will they allow the names
of Democrat or Republican. the question of
tariff or free trade. the shibboleths of po-
litical parties to blind and deafen them
to the real contest which they have on
their hands? VIII they vote for a man to
enforce city ordinances because he is a
Republican; for a set of men to make
those ordinances because they are Demo-
Gratis; for man 10 select juries, or a nan
to prosecute criminals and corruptionists
because he has this or that idea on ma
tional questions? Or will they march
shoulder to shoulder to the polling booths
to cast their ballot for men who ask theil
SURFACES on the sole issue that they are fol
a clean municipal government and the re-
lief of the people from the bondage OF the
Southern Pacific? Is it possible tha
there can be any doubt as to what they
will do?

NoN-PARTIsANsnIP IN POLITICS.

At a Tammany meeting in New York
Mr.. Frederick r. Coudert said there was
no such thing as non-partisanship in
politics. No one has said there is. In
politics there are issues on which men
take sides and thus form parties. But in
municipal govern ment there may be nom
partisansbip, so far as national politics are
concerned. Instead of discussing national
issues in local contest, local issues will
be discussed. New York Democrats are
asking the voters of that city to perpetuate
the infamies of Tammany rule, because il
Tammany is in power it will render assist
ance to the national Democratic party.
The result is as yet in doubt, but it is
quite probable that New York will decide
that if the national Democratic party can
not live without Tammany it may as well
die
