BoycOtted Titles.

From the New York Commercial Advertiser)
Some of the finest words in our common Ian
Suage are avoided by nice verbaIists in both Eng
land and America. because they have been cheap
ened and twisted from their meaning 10y oolrsa
and vain misuse. These words share the fate
of titles in America. He is a bold man who calls
himself professor, having earned the right to do
SO. and doctor is going the same lamentable way.
Uncommissioned colonies and unbenched Judges
put soldiers and jurists TO the blush. and the
statesmen who pack ward clucuses and juggla
the stock market with tariff schedules cause men
who rule States to seek another designation. No.
body who really works at the trade of news
mongering dires longer to call himself jour
nalist. These are common words. II is sadder
thing that gentleman has gone with them. 1t
still has definite meaning in England. though
not the finer sense it may have when stripped
Of merely fortuitous distinction. Here it is most
rare in the mouths of those to whom the fine
ideal is ever present, and few gentlewomen Gaze
to be called ladies. Culture begins to be Stunned
hy persons who know and value the real essence
and around it is gathering a whole group of
words men Of letters abandon to be the cant Of
vain pretenders

THE HOUSE OF DEPUTIES.
Executive Session to Consider Elec-
ton of Bishop.


The secret session in the afternoon, dur
ing which the nomination of the Rev. DR..
Junus Moore Horner. of oxford. y. c..
TO be the bishop of the missionary juris
diction of Asheville was considered and
finally acted upon. was the only special
feature of interest in the House of Depu-
ties yesterday. The rest of the day was
devoted mainly to rushing through resolu-
tions and reports pertaining to routine
matters.
The executive session began at 5 o'clock.
There was no opposition in the house 10
the candidate. and 1t was expected that 1t
would only last few minutes, but an un-
expected surprise came in the way of
telegram from the Rev. DIR. Swope, of
Asheville protesting against the election
of Dr. Horner on the ground that he
lacked missionary experience
The friends of the new bishop in the
assembly prevailed, however, and several
eloquent speeches Were made in eulcsy of
him and his church and educational work
When the election came to a vote Bishop
Horner was elected unanimously. The
bishops were informed of his election AMI
he will be confirmed Immediately.
The Morning Session.
At the morning session yesterday Chair
man Dix announced the following depu-
ties to serve as members of the joint COM
mission on the increased responsibilities
of the church: Rev. DIR. Greer. of New
York; Rev. Dr. Jones, of Central Penn-
sylvania: Rev. DIR. Mann. of West Mis-
souri,; j. Pierpont Morgan. of New York
James ]. Goodwin. of Connecticut, and
Joseph Packard. of Maryland.
Committee reports followed and the
action of the House of Bishops in re-
fusing to recede from its action giving
to representatives of missionary districts
| a constitutional vote right to vote in
! the house was taken up. The house finally
| adopted a resolution to non-concur with
| the action of the bishops.

a Friend in Need,

Colonel Roosevelt has raised up a
powerful friend at the critical period
in the great battle of Santiago de New
York. Carl Schurz, the Wandering
HessIan, has declared against Roose-
welt, and, accordingly, will probably re-
duce Van Wycks majority ten thou
sand votes.
Schurz likes Roosevelt, but objects to
Imperialism" and bluntly states that
he prefers Tammany rule in the State
of New York to American control of the
Philippine Islands. This is most inter-
esting. The Kaiser's newest servant Is
quite as offensive as the German ad-
miral at Manila.
But whose advice shall be taken.
Schurz's or Dewey's?
The times., 1898-10-25

1t would be little less ridiculous in
Col. Roosevelt to swear himself hoarse on
the stump against the principle of bossism
as represented by Richard Croker if the
horribly embossed pictures of Mark Han
ma and Thomas c. Platt were not coinci-
IDENTIFY before the American people as a
hideous object lesson. Roosevelt is under
stood to expect success at the polls next
month. That would be vastly more ride
ulous than It is if the Hanna management
had not developed the satanic shrewd
sense to hire the ineffable Carl Schurz TO
antagonize him. We give the devil his
due in congratulating the dollar-marked
parsonage upon brilliant trick, including
both good politics" and sound business
methods"

TUESDAY. OCTOBER 25, 1883.
The President. orutory.

It cannot be said that the recent
speeches of the President are models Of
what ora.ory should be, and they can
not compare favorably with those de-
Iivered by General Harrison in similar
circumstances. But the New York
Times is surely wrong in assuming
them TO be in the style condemned by
Daniel Webster, nearly fifty years ago,
as calculated to ''vitiate. deprave and
corrupt the vernacular Of the country"
The Congressional debates. with the
style OF which Webster found fault,
were cf what may BE- called the flap
doodle and highfalutin. and of which
Senator Mason and Archbishop ireland
are perhaps the most devoted followers
We do not think the speeches made by
the President on his Western journey
are entirely characteristic, though he
fell into their manner easily enough
VIXEN he either had no distinct ideas to
reveal or had ideas to conceal. A man
with nothing to say when something is
expected OF him must naturally attempt
10 make mere phrases take the place Of
thoughts. The President strung to-
sether many euphonious terms and
gave expression to many Of the most
obvious and trite observations fash
Toned on the copy-boOk sentiments of a
former generation. They were not more
original and timely than such time
worn phrases as there is no happiness
except in virtue" and the like. There
is a difference between the declaration
of the obvious by President Mckinley
and by Mr. Cleveland. The latter made
his stilted sentences, in which the most
familiar facts were set forth as new
discoveries, appropriate to the occasion: :
wEiie it requires some penetration to
guess at the relation of the Presidents S
aphorisms and any topic of current in
terest. They are lucid enough and
pleasing to the ear and they are often
distinctly moral. But it is not at once
apparent why he should use them.
They do not appear to be, as the Times
describes them, "diffused and swollen" !"
bat simply meaningless.
AS to his taste in poetry. the Times is
right. if it is right in saying that his
favorite ballad is "an effusion of the
music halls known as Louisiana Lou -
But it is to be considered that his edu-
cation has not been literary. From his
earliest manhood politics and questions
OF government have absorbed all his in
terests. To man who is an active par
tisan and a member of Congress, little
time is left from his exacting public
duties for the cultivation of a literary
taste. If he is able to avoid the temp
tatiOn Of the strained and turgid ora
tory that is so wearisome to persons of
taste and to acquire a lucid and quiet
manner of speech, that is all we have
any reason to expect. President Nc
Kinley is not to be Judged by the man.
ner Of his oratory at a time when he
has nothing that he wants to say to the
public.
