TIE AUSTRIAN BE4R-GIRDEN.

Parliamentary government IN Austria Is hav-
ing a hard time Of II just now. Free fights
among the Deputies In the Parliament House
are Of frequent occurrence. and the most vio-
lent personal abuse of each other Is their Gus

which the House is divided The House will
probably contnuc in a state Of progressive
Chaos until il IS mcrcfully dissolved.
Meanwhile, the German Nailonalists and
others have united in attacking Count Badcnl.
They can agree only In attacking somebody
or something. They have formulated five spe-
cific charges against him Of violating the Con
siituti0n, and more than forty Deputies have
announced their intention Of making set
speeches against him. The Prime Minister
chccrfully announc mat he will answer them
all, individually and in detail. So there Is
prospect of further tumult AMI disorder, al

Democratic organization has been concentrated
for weeks past on the capture OF the state
Legislature. Personal and factional differences
in the four cities Cincinnati, Cleveland. Toledo
and Columbus have made the election OF ke-
publican Senators and Representatives from
these four controlling centres Of political power
q somewhat difficult task. Yet. in spite or the
dssenslons which the Senatorial canvass has
aroused, the Republican managers ut Column
bus still count on retaining their control of the
LEGISLATURE. and thereby continuing an I'M
broken Republican representation in the delib-
crative branch Of Congress. No Republican
votes can be spared in the United States Senate
at this juncture. and 1t is TO be hoped that
Ohio will not lend her aid 10 gripping Repub-
lean supremacy there.

Az ENGLISH ELECTION.

By-elections in England are seldom of much
interest save Of a purely personal or local KIND.
They indicate little or nothing Of the general
drift Of politics They are no forecast Of the
result OF the next general election. But that
OF this week III the BarnScy Division of York
shire presents ono decidedly novel feature.
commanding something more than passil: no
ticc.
The contest resulted in an Opposition victory,
as was expected. The constituency has long
been Radical one and in this case the Radi-
Gals put up a particularly strong and active
man. while the Unonist candidate was Il weak
and inexperienced one In such circumstances
an increase OF the Radical vote was to be looked
for. But it did not materialize. In Il total POLL
of ISL votes less ;han were cast in 1895. the
Radical candidate got 20 less than then. So
the party strength has remained stationary.
The Radical majority is almost exactly what
ii was in 1890.
This timc however. there was third candi-
date a SocialstLabor man, put forward by
the notorious Keir Hardie and his followers.
1t was to be expected that his support would
be drawn from the Radical ranks, and the
Unionists had hopes that thus, through division
OF The Opposition, they might win. But-and
this is what Is interesting-the Soclalist-Labor
vote seems to have been drawn entirely from
the Unionist party. The figures make this

HENRY GEORGE.

The sudden death of Henry George Is not
unfortunate for his fame. He had earnestly
and honestly longed TO witness the triumph OF
those economic and social theories TO the propa-
cation Of which he had devoted the best years
of his life. but 1t is scarcely supposabe that any
length Of days could have given him that salts
faction In this extraordinary campaign. how
ever, he was far less the representative of spec
ulatlve doctrines which a Mayor has no power
TO enforce than Of the simple proposition that
municipal government in the interest of po-
lit!cal organization Is utterly inconsistent with
the honest and efficient transaction Of munic-
ipal business down with the machines was
he motto and inspiration Of his campaign. and
he entered into the contest with more than his
accustomed energy, though unhappily with less
than his former strength. His courage was
equal to any meIgency, but his body could not
bear the strain Of so ardent and tumultuous a
struggle. Whether or not he considered his
election probable. he did beyond a doubt re-
ioice in the belief that his candidacy was a
potent force IN promoting the cause OF munic-
ipal reform, for which he was destined to sacri-
fee his life If be entertained n hope OF per-
sonal success. death has spared him another
disappointment, but there Is reason to believe
that II will contribute powerfully 10 the triumph
Of principles which were far dearer TO him than
personal success He was for many years an
honest fearless disnterested exponent Of opln-
Ions which cannot and ought not TO prevail.
At the last he was champion Of truths which
are about 10 be vlndlcated. Peace TO his men,
DRY.
It was inevitable that the death OF a conspic-
nous candidate In the crisis OF the campaign
should instantly provoke an excited discussion
Of its political consequences. There Is no dis
respect in such calculations, nor any impro-
priety in declaring at once that every consid-
Grafton Of logic and loyalty must constrain the
great mass Of Henry Georges devoted follow
ers TO support Seth Low. There is no doubt as
to what their leader would have advised them
10 do II he could have foreseen the present sit
uation Indeed, there may be some warrant for
conjecturing that he did foresee it, Over and
over again. and on the last day of his life. he
said. In phrases substantially Identical: IF |
cannot be elected. would prefer that Mr. Low
should occupy the chair of Mayor Of Greater
"New-York"; III thought I could not win, l
would say. Vote for Low
That Is a declaration which has now become
IN injunction. 1t Is the political last will and
testament of Henry George. His stirring ora
tory In denunciation Of corrupt and despotic
machines was less impressive and less likely
10 weld his followers into a compact force for
their destruction than this expression Of a wish
suddenly translated into the call of duty. 1t is
incouceivable that 1t should he dsregarded by
men who had eagerly obeyed his summons to

TIE BETRAYAL OF EINSTEIN.

The intimate relations which have existed in
the past between Thomas C. Plat and Richard
Croker have long been evident from effects
which could only be explained by such causes
But the affidavit concerning the management
Of "The Wine and Spirit Gazette" printed else
where in this issue. is. we think, the first direct
testimony TO Platts dealings with Tammany
Hall that has ever been made public in definite
form by any person IN position to be familiar
with the facts
The statement Of John T. Smith shows that
while PLAT was at the head OF the Republican
party of the State and pretending Loyalty to sup
port the local ticket headed by Edwin Einsein,
he ordered the paper which he controlled, an in
tercst in which he had purchased either per
sonally or in behalf OF the State Committee, to
support Thomas f. Gilroy and the rest Of the
Tammany candidates While Platts paper un-
der his directions was thus supporting Tam
many, Plat himself was making conspicuous
efforts on behalf OF the whole Republican ticket
and leading his followers to feel the same de-
lusive confidence which he now seeks to instil
in the face Of impending defeat Every Repub-
llcan voter inclined to put trust in his predc-
lions and his protests OF loyalty TO Tracy should
consider his treachery to Elnstein. II he could
bctray Einstein for two Police Commissioner
ships, would he be above bctraying Tracy to
save for himself the power Of carrying on his
old Albany business Of trading with Tammany?
The revelation Of this use OF THE Wine and
Spirit Gazette to help Tammany Is the first
satisfactory explanation of the sudden willing
ness Of Croker to put two OF Platts creatures
in the Police Board after having excluded Re
publ!cans from those Offices for some time.
Everybody knew It was not due 10 sudden
virtue. but to Quid pro quo. Now 1t seems
that Murray and Kerwn were the price of
Platts support Of Gilroy and betrayal OF Elm

Mr. Henry L. Einsten. with his newspaper,
