another of the multiplying evidences OF
the growing reverence for the martyred
President in the minds OF the American
people. He is no longer seen through
clouds OF party enthusiasm or party preJu-
dice.
Throughout the entire North the people
behold him in the clear atmosphere of his
torlc truth. The lofty nobility OF his
nature is recognized by all, and New
Jersey, that voted against him as party
candidate, fifty comes forward among the
first to honor him as one of the most emf
nent OF those whose lives have been a
glory to the Republic and an inspiration to
its people.
1t is not too much to expect the action
taken in New Jersey to be the forerunner
OF wider and more general honor to the
memory of Lincoln. There is no reason
why his birthday should not have Ma
tional commemoration and find honorable
observance in every State in the Union.
AS the clouds of party politics have swept
away from his memory in the North, SO
Will the clouds of war prejudices fade away
from it in the South. The great sentiment
of malice toward none and charity for
all" must sooner or later find an equally
generous response from every noble heart,
and the fame of Lincoln, like that OF
Washington, become dear to every loyal
American South as we'll as North.

THE CHICAGO CANAL.

While Chicago is exulting in her onward
career and winning praise from cities afar
off, she is spreading fear and dread over all
the surrounding country and rousing the
opposition of all the cities on the lower
lakes, and not few of those on the Missis-
sippi All this comes about because of the
great scheme of constructing a canal which
will not only carry off the sewage of the
city to the Mississippi River, but also serve
to make Chicago a port to which great
steamers can come direct from the Gulf of
Mexico.
The carrying out of this vast enterprise,
which would give Chicago transportation
advantages superior to those of any other
city in the world, threatens the cities
along the canal and the rivers through
which the sewage would flow with the
danger of disease. The refuse of large
city floating through the sluggish waters
OF a canal, or stranded along the banks of
river and exposed to the hot sun of an
Eastern summer, is very sure to be more
or less pestilential, and as consequence
there has been all along, more or less pro-
test against the use of the canal for such a
purpose.
The complaints of the lake cities are even
more serious than those which come from
the cities along the rivers. 1t is feared the
opening of the canal will have the effect of
lowering the water in the lower lakes so
much that the connecting rivers and some
of the harbors will no longer be deep
enough for navigation by the larger class
of lake vessels. The engineer of the canal
estimates that the lowering of the lakes
will not exceed FIVE inches, but the Cleve-
land Leader says even that amount would
be too much, as the waters of the lake riv-
ers are already too shallow for the
demands of trade.
1t is very likely that Congress will be
called upon to deal with the question, for
the Boards of Trade of the various lake
cities have taken steps to appeal for pro-
lection, on the ground that as the Govern
ment has expended vast sums of money to
improve the harbors and connecting chan
nels of the great lakes, and other costly
improvements are now under way, it seems
worse than folly to permit all that has
been done in the way of deepening river
channels to be offset by the city of Chicago,
if there is any way of preventing it."

SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.

An Oregon Judge has set q good example by
discharging from custody man who had been
guilty of counterfeiting, but who had proved
that detective egged him on to commit the
crime. The silly fellow pleaded guilty but the
Judge dismissed the case and said that he
would not allow the man to be tried under such
circumstances. The decision is right. There
are altogether too many detectives who per-
suade others to commit crimes in order that
they may get the credit of the arrest and con-
viction of their dupes.-Bakersfeld Cali

POLITICAL PARTIES.

The difference between the elements
composing the Republican party and those
of which Democracy is made up was, per-
haps, never more clearly manifest than at
this time. The financial problem has put
both parties to an equal test. Each has
had to confront it as the dominant issue of
the country. Each is aware that the ques-
ton involved in it cannot be evaded. Each
in its own way is preparing to meet it, and
the difference in the method of preparation
is full of significance.
In the Republican party we find wide
differences of opinion in regard to the
proper solution of the problem, but not
withstanding this fact there is everywhere
evident an earnest effort to reconcile differ
ences, desire for platform broad enough
for all, and determination to maintain
the harmony OF the party so that it will
not only be possible to devise the right
policy of action, but to rally all the ele-
ments Of the party to its support and
thereby be able to carry it through both
branches of Congress and defend it before
the people.
In the Democratic party we find differ
ences of opinion but no effort at harmony
Each leader holds to his own views and
denounces those OF his colleagues. In
place of earnest efforts at reconciliation we
find faction fights becoming every day
more and more intense and bitter. Cleve-
land denounces one-half of his party as the
advocates of dishonest money, and the
leaders of that half retort upon him the
angry charge of being a tool of Wall street,
an agent of the money power. traitor to
party pledges and an enemy to the welfare
of the people.
These differences in the methods of the
two parties are matters of serious political
Importance. Organization, harmony and
discipline are as essential in representative
government as in war. Unless a party is
sufficiently coherent to act together, it
may be able to elect majority to Congress,
but that iority will be powerless to meet
the issues of the day or to manage the
affairs OF the country. We have had an
example of that in the last Congress, and
a repetition of it is certainly desired by
nobody.
If, therefore, we may Judge the condition
OF affairs likely to prevail in 1896 by that
which exists now, the most important issue
before the country will be that of deciding
whether the Government be intrusted to
an organized, harmonious party that can
govern, or whether it is to be turned over
to combination OF factions without cohe-
renee, consistency or true leadership.

Arthur G. Wheeland and John D. siebe, two
well known young men of this City, left Mon
day afternoon on the steamer Oregon for Port
land. Their trip will not end at Portland,
however, for before they again see the sun
shine and the fogs of San Francisco they
will have encircled the earth. Their
intention is to see all the principal countries
of the world, and to see them in greater detail
than the average tourists; for that reason they
have set no really definite date for their re-
turn but will stay away until satiated with the
sights to be seen on the continents of the Old
World. They will cross the Pacific and come
back to the Sunset City once more. Both
young men well known in local So
eiety, and scores of their friends were at the
dock, waving farewells as the vessel bore the
travellers away on the beginning of their
voyage of adventure. Both are familiar with
the principal languages of the European Con-
tlnent and travelling there will be easy. For
the other countries ready wit and knowl-
edge of human nature will carry them through

NEW JERSEY AND LINCOLN.

The fact that New Jersey has been one
of the first States in the Union to make
Lincoln's birthday public holiday has
recalled the failure of the State to vote for
him when he was candidate for President.
In 1860, when Lincoln swept every free
State by large maiorities, he succeeded in
getting only four out of the seven electoral
votes in New Jersey, and gained even
those only because good many Douglas
men refused to support the fusion ticket.
In 1864 New Jersey again voted against
Lincoln, being the only free State that did
so, and in this way emphasized the adverse
vote of 1860. To-day the State puts itself
in the van of the Union and leads the way
in honoring the memory of the man whom
its voters rejected.
The incident is interesting mainly as

eminent. The country can stand anarchy
in Congress, but it cannot stand it without
serious injury to all the interests of the
people. 1t is well, therefore, that intelli-
gent men should pay attention to this
great difference between the two parties
that will solicit their suffrages in 1886.
They can see in Democracy every evidence
of disruption and Reorganization over the
chief problem of the day, and they can see
among Republicans growing spirit OF
harmony and completer organization,
and certainly no good citizen can hesitate
under these circumstances in deciding
which party will be best able to efficiently
govern the country and provide for its well
fare
