Senator David B. Hill Is more nearly
Democracy of the Eastern states. He
speaks for the Democracy of New York,
with its perfect organization. He Is the
natural spokesman and representative of
those Democrats who still hold the sound
views on finance and on the tariff which
were held by Samuel j. Tildcn and Daniel
Manning. Indeed. Hill Is the successor OF
those statesmen in the affections of the
old-fashioned Democrats who constitute
the majority OF the party east of the Ale
ghanies and north of the Potomac.
Occupying this position aud proudly
nevertheless declared on the floor of the
senate on last Saturday that Cleveland
would DO the last Democratic president.
II Is true that these words were spoken In
the heat Of debate and in answer TO Sem
Ator Vests tannt that there would never
be another Democratic president from the
state Of New York, bat they nevertheless
indicate that Senator Hill is hopeless of
the future OF bis party. It's incapacity to
govern the country properly Is so evident
that even It's most adroit leader is CON-
PEELED 20 admit its failure and his own
conviction that II can never recover the
ground which it has lost.
Never before has so prominent a leader
of party in entire possession of the gov
eminent openly predicted its downfall.
Senator IIiil's prophetic utierancc is nota-
bile. not only for It's irankness but tor its
significance as an admission of the utter
failure OF government by the Bourbon
Democracy.

Ex-President Harrison's house At Cape
May point Is offered for sale ~ $500. al

good deal Of newspaper scandal about this
house 1T the time il was purchased. which
did General Harrison great inlustice. A
man of the name of Bradley. who owned
q lot of ocean property ar Cape May Point,
where Mr.. Wanamaker had summer

him If he could get the president down

mer. The family moved down, and IL
proved to be just such q quiet place rs they
wanted, although the means OF getting
back and forth were little announcement,
and there were good many mosquitoes.
Then Mr.. w. v. Mexican, the editor OF

The property was conveyed to Mr.. Nc

But the president. who'did not know of

The assassination of Carnot. the presi-
dent OF France. need not surprise any in
telllgens reader Of the history Of modern
times.
Queen Victoria IN q mere fgurehead,
bat even her life has been attempted eight
times in her reign Of fifty-sevsn years.
That the life Of Napoleon Roaaparte should
have been attempted. is not remarkable,
when we remember that he was cordially
hated not only by the Bourbons but by
the radical French Republicans, Of which
the grandfather Of the murdered president
Of France was q distinguished type. The
life OF Napoleon the Third was attempted
by Orsini; the life Of King Louis Philippe
was attempted by Fieschi with an -in-
fernal machine in 1880, whose explosion
killed the venerabls Marshal Mortier.
More than one other attempt was made
on the life of Louis Philippe before the
revolution Of 1913. The Duke de Berri
assassin In 1870 in the reign of
Louis the Eighteenth. The Car
Alexander the Second of Russia
was killed by bomb. The life of Presi-
dent Jackson was attempted. and two
presidents of the United States. Lincoln
and Garfield, have been assassinated-
The life of King Humbert, of
Italy, has been attempted. and that
of Gen. Prim, of Spain. has been'taken.
Lord Frederick Cavendish, brother of the
present Duke OF Devonshire. was muir
dered In 1851 in Phoenix park, Dublin.
The life of Emperor William the First of
Germany was twice attempted by Hodei
and DIR. MODELLING. Prince Bismarck was in
the last years of his chancellorship the
object of an assassin's attack. Lord
Mayo. governor general of India.
was murdered by convict at the Anda-
man islands, even as Gen. Kleber was
murdered at Cairo by Mussulnan IA
matte. Thomas Darcy Melee. distin-
guished member of the Canadian parlia-
ment, was murdered by Fenian fanatic:
Gambetta was killed by his mistress. The
assassination of Prime Minister Perceval
in the lobby OF the house of commons IN
1912 by Bellingham, O lunatic, is familiar
to all readers of the history of those times.
The recent assassination Of Mayor Harri-
son by Prendergast is fresh in the memo
ries of our readers.
Modern political assassins are invariably
cranks of some sort; they have some real
or fancied public or private wrong which
in their unarranged brains they think to
right by taking the life of some great pub
lie functionary whom they hold response
bic. Sometimes il is mere love of no.
toriety. like Booth and Guiteau; some
times 1t is an insane revenge for a
real or fancied slight. such as Prem
dergast claimed had been put upon
him by Mayor Harrison. Sometimes the
assassin Is mere anarchist on general prin-
cipies. like Henry. recently decapitated in
France for throwing 6 bomb into
crowded restaurant and killing those who
attempted to arrest him. In any event
such creatures are human wild beasts, who
ought 20 be exterminated legally as soon
as possible. Their moral responsibility
God must decide, but society for It's own
protection must put them to death as
promptly as they would a Bengal man
eating tiger.
