The Massacre of Pekin.

"Whom the gods wish to destroy they
first make mad" The infatuated
wretches who have made themselves
accessories before and after the fact to
the murder of the ENJOYS will have, in
their own persons, terrible price to
pay. Now that our own representa-
tive is included in the number of the
slain we are not so much shocked as we
were yesterday at the German Kaiser's
use of the word revenge" We feel
like using it ourselves. Whether we
use 1t or not, it is plainly alike our duty
and our policy to make examples which
shall not be forgotten. The murder of
the ENJOYS is one of the most horrible
instances in history of perfdy and
cruelty. 1t resembles, in its oriental
tiendishness, the massacre of the Black
Hole of Calcutta, and is likely to be
yoked with it in infamy. 1t is likely
also TO resemble it in the terror of the
retribution.-New York Times.

Roland E. Stevens seems to settle
conclusively, in the communication in
this issue of the JOURNAL, the whole
matter of the appointment of the Hart
ford census enumerators. As ninety
nine people out of one hundred who
are able to see between the rounds of
ladder saw at the outset, it was purely
and simply case of petty interference
with appointments for the sake of par
tisan advantage in the senatorial con-
test. 1t is worth something, however,
to have the facts of the matter clearly
exhibited. What was done in Hartford
was done in East Montpelier, in Lud-
low and in various other towns. 1t is
mighty small business and the people
of the State ought to brand it with their
reprobation.
