polls and not only assist them to Office,
but Judge Maynard as we'll, to a full
term on the bench. In fact, so anxious
were the administration people to give
evidence of their faithfulness and SINGER
ity that Col. Lamont travelled all the way
from Washington to cast his vote for
the ticket he had helped to make, The
morning after the election the metropoli-
tan newspapers all contained descriptions
of the colonel's arrival at the polls; how
he alighted from his carriage, and made
his way through the line to the booth
carrying rather ostentatiously straight
ticket in his hand. That he deposited
the ticket in the box nobody has ever
doubted, or can doubt.
Here we see, therefore, the Presidents
nearest friend and confidential adviser
helping to make ticket with Maynard IS
name on it, supporting that ticket in the
brief campaign that followed, and vot-
ing for it at the polls in a way to en-
courage others to do the same thing. II
this had not been agreeable to MI. Cleve-
land would he not. and should he not.
have rebuked it? And since he did not
rebuke it, is it not entirely fair to say
that he approved it?
1.-The rejection of Mr.. Peckham by the
aid of Republican Senators like Mr.. Nor
rill, Mr.. Allison, Mr.. Henderson and
others, who take d just and Sc emily view
of matters, is the answer to the ques-
ton. The talk to them that Mr.. Peck
ham was being opposed by the Hill
people because of his acptivity against
Maynard struck them as being comical
when they considered that the man who
had sent Mr.. Peckham's name in stood
committed himself to Maynard through
the activity aud public support of his
closest Cabinet adviser, the Secretary OF
War. They were utterly unable to recon-
cile the two things, and their vote for
rejection was their method of expressing
their disgust with the whole illogical
ana inexplicable affair"
Then the Maynard episode Will not
work." was asked.
"The Maynard incident i'll closed, SO
far as the President is concerned" was
the reply. Maynard's conduct has been
justly characterized and whipped by the
people of New York, but the record
shows that the President had no part OF
lot in administering that whip, and II
does not lie IN the mouth of his friends
to claim anything for him on that score.
The Supreme Court vacancy ought tc
be, and must be filled without reference
to the faction fight in the ranks of the
New York Democracy.
Senators here ha 7e had these lights
so much before them of late that they
have been stuying them and have arrived
at conclusion about them. They are not
enamored of either side..i OF the two,
however. they are beginning to lean
more toward Mr.. Hills than toward the
Presidents. Mr.. Hill makes compact,
keeps it, and stands by those who stand
by him. The President at times seems tc
be willing to keep bad company for the
profit that may be in it, but afterward
to throw over the people who have lured
him, when the compact has failed and
his partners stand defeated and discredit

one party demanded it also. 1t is only
the truth to say that the public ex-
pectation that Mr.. Baxter would give the
city wise, prudent, business-like and
progressive administration of it's cor
perate affairs has.been realized in the
highest degree, The city's business was
never more ably and satisfactorily hand
led than during the past year, Privately
cede this. Mr. Baxter brought to the
office long business experience and thor
ough acquaintance with the needs of the
city and this experience and this knowl-
edge the city has received the benefit OF
in the fullest measure. Not being en-
gagged in active business he has been able
to give much more time to city affairs
than has been possible in the case of the
majority of our mayors and this fact has
been great advantage to the city. One
of the most notable successes of his adj
ministration and one that will be far
reaching in its effects and iof great and
lasting benefit to the people is the estab-
lishment of industrial training in con-
nection with our common schools. This
project originated with Mr.. Baxter,
though the council and school committee
gave it their hearty cooperation, and
it has been due largely to his personal
zeal and enthusiasm in its behalf that it
has been successfully inaugurated. The
reconstruction of the High school build
ing is another work to which Mr.. Baxter
has given a great deal of earnest atten-
tlon and personal supervision. and the
completion of the building in manner
highly satisfactory to every citizen is one
of the achievements to which his admin
istration may point with p1ide. The
financial condition of the city has been
carefully kept in view, and every posi-
BILE precaution has been taken that the
full benefit should be reaped from
every dollar expended, while additional
safeguards have been suggested which
in the future will still further secure
the faithful and intelligent application
of every dollar raised by taxation to the
purposes for which it is raised. There
has been no blowing of trumpets, nor
high sounding promises, but day by
day the Mayor has given his time, his
experience and his knowledge to the
devising of intelligent and practicable
| plans for the business-like and
economical conduct of city affairs
not only in the present, but in
the future as we'll. Many of these
plans have already borne fruit
which is obvious to the public. Others
will bear fruit in the future provided
they remain under the direction OF
prudence and foresight, care and care
fulness equal to those which have charac'
terized the administration of the past
year.
Fortunately, for the next year, this is
assured for Mr.. Bakers triumphant re-
election, is foregone conclusion.

1t is good news that harmony has at
last been restored in Ward 8, and that all
the Republicans are going to support
the ticket with enthusiasm. There is no
doubt that assmajority of the voters of
this ward are Republicans, but owing to
discussions among them. growing out of

anything Else the Democrats have been
able for some years past to elect some

The declaration of the Democratic
caucus that all good Democrats ought
TO attend the sessions of the House in
order to help BANDS bill along didn't
meet with very encouraging response.
Yesterday Bland again undertook to fix
n time for voting on his bill, and was
again confronted with no quorum 1t
looks as though the committee on rules
would have to devise some way of bring
ing the Democrats into the House, and
of opening their mouths after they are
there before Mr.. BANDS bill will get a
chance.

New York will undoubtedly be some
what dissatisfied with the selection of
successor to Justice Biachford outside of
the Empire State, and perhaps with good
reason. But the blame rests entirely
upon three of her own distinguished
citizens-the President of the United
States and Senators Hill and Murphy.
BY little sacrifice of personal feel
ing on the part of either the President
or the Senators or both, New York could
have had the prize which now goes to
Louisiana. Of course there will be an
effort on the part of each of the New
York Democratic factions to put all the
blame upon the other, but the great
public is likely to apportion it between
them both in about equal quantity. And
the great public will be qnite nearly
right.

REJECTION OF PECKHAM.
Said to Have been due to the President
Himself.
Washington Star.]

A Senator who voted against Mr.. Peck
ham gave to representa- of the Star
today an explanation of certain aspects
of the case not heretofore alluded to IN
the newspapers, and which, as he be-
lieves, had an important influence in
bringing about the result obtained.
II have no DESIRE" this Senator began
by saying, "to detract from Mr.. Hill's
prominence in the contest. He organized
the opposition to confirmation, and to a
certain extent led it. He is plucky
man, and capable manager. 1t is true,
however, that Mr.. Peckham's defeat was
largely due to the President, and to the
absurd arguments employed by certain
Democratic leaders and newspapers in
urging thu Senate to indorse the appoint
ment.
"The most absurd Of all propositions
to those familiar with the facts is that
the Hill wing of the New York Democ-
racy is alone tainted with the Maynard
episode. Whatever of wrong there may
have been 10 that transaction and how
ever cuipable Judge Maynard himself
may be, both wings OF the New York
Democracy have enjoyed the usufruct of
it, and the nearest friends and support
ers of Mr.. Cleveland have since carried
themselves towards Judge Maynard in
way fully authorizing the assumption
that they must have condoned his
offense.
Some Inside Facts.
"The facts justifying this assertion are
these: Last fall when the time had come
for conferences between the two factions
on the subject Of a State ticket Col.
LAMONT made half dozen visits to New
York to consult with Richard Croker
and the representatives of Senator Hill.
The machine was all-powerful. The
ticket had practically been named with
out any sort of reference to the admins
ration's wishes or interest. Not an ad-
m1nistration man had been slated for
ANYTHING. George 3. Mcclellan, jr.,
Cookers protege, was to head the TICK ct
for Secretary of State, and Isaac ii. May
nard was to be the candidate for judge
of the Court of Appeals. But at the last
moment the machine leaders consented
to a truce. it was represented to them
that peace was better than war, union
better than division. The proposition
could not be gainsaid, and combina-
ton ticket, warranted to bring both
factions to the polls, was su bstituted.
In his transaction Col. Lamont represent
ed the administration. Cord Meyer of
Brooklyn, an out-and-out Cleveland
man, was put at the head of the ticket in
place of young Mcclellan and friend

been slated for treasurer, made way fol

THE workingmen of this country are

on the River Nile. They live a miser-
able life of hard labor, without enough
pay to be able to save q penny. and vet
they always seem to be happy. Their
songs make the night musical. and all
day long, at their oars or the tow rope,
they go chanting and singing as cheer
fully as if they received $50 instead Of

lance they are obliged to feed and
clothe themselves. Their food is but
the poorest kind of bread, baked aud
broken into pieces and dried on deck

this is boiled in river water, making q
sort OF mush or soft mass, which the
men surround three times day, and

possession in the shape of u dish or

that struck him in the neck, making
a wound about an inch in circumfer-

healed.
