Presidents OF the United Statesmen be-
doth hedge a king'-have been compelled
to suffer much criticism because of their
public and private acts. President Clevsp
land has been no exception TO the rule. He
has done many things which he doubtless
believed to be right, but like all other
human beings has frequently erred and has
generally been rOtitied to that effect Re-
Gently he has been a target for those demo-
cratic politicians who believed it to be his
should be an unqualified Endorsement of
Hill and HiIlism and all the other Tam
many features which have so long cast
discredit upon what is unquestionably the
greatest state in the Union. Partisan
speakers and newspapers have assailed the
Chief Executive for his non interference,
and have openly accused him of treachery
with the highest gift the people can be-
stow. President Cleveland can afford to
look with complacency at the foul stream
Of abuse directed at him. but fallen short
of its mark. There never was any reason
why the President of the whole country
should ally himself with a faction in any
one OF the states, least of all with fac
ton so thoroughly disreputable as that
which was defeated at the polls in the
Empire State last Tuesday. Nearly seven
hundred thousand of the voters in that
state alone-many of them democrats-in-
dorsed President Cleveland's silence.

While the election returns have tumbled
In rapidly and there has been conspicu-
ously-successful effort on the part of Amer
lean newspapers to supply their readers
with all the Information that would throw
any light on the figures, one of the post
election features Is missing, and that is he
always interesting aggregation of British
opinion which comes to through the
medium of British newspapers and the
Atlantic cables. Up to this time we have
been treated only to few scattering re-
marks on the subject of Tammany. but
when II becomes evident to the English
editor that the American people have voted
a lack OF confidence In the administration
that has endeavored to accord as nearly as
possible with British ideas and interests We
may expect to hear the wall of anguish and
the language of the grievously disappointed.
OF course, there will be all sorts of blunders
In the telling OF the story: Illinois will be
scolded for not returning William l.. Wilson
to the House of Commons. Arkansas will be
held accountable for the defeat of w. c.. p.
Breckenridge at the primaries, while the
Electoral College will be declared blame
worthy for its failure to elect Governor Hill
president of the city of New York. 1t will
be terribly annoying, too. for those erudite
subjects OF Queen Victoria who write editor
falls on American topics to realize that the
American people have revolted against the
income-taX idea and will have no more of
this British institution than other Amcri-
cans had to do with the tax upon tea. This
backward step will give pain to many an
English journalist. Not even the anti-Tam-
many victory in New York is powerful
enough to prevent the writing and publica-
ton of several leading editorials on the de-
cadence of civilization in the United States.

Although the general depression is felt
here, there has been but slight decline In
the value of real estate, and the general
opinion seems to be that one who buys real
estate here is sure to profit by it In the
long run. Washington is fast becoming the
residence of the wealthy lejsure class, and
the impetus given to the various trades by
the advent Of these people with plenty OF
means is felt In all parts of the city. The
prevailing faith in the future Of Washing
ton Is shown by the great amount of first
class building going on. Some of the houses
lately erected are palatial in their fittings
and those who are investing in them feel
that they are making wise provision for the
