twenty years in national Office, Is in New
York. practically exile from his old
home. Mr.. Herbert has left politics and re-
sides here in Washington. Colonel Lamont
is rich and in the railroad business. Hoke
Smith has returned to the practice of law
at Atlanta, and announces no further po-
Iitical aspirations. Mr.. Francis is at the
head of the great st. Louis show, and Is
not in touch with the dominant faction OF
his party at home. Judge Harmon. who
was never a political factor in Ohio, is de-
voting himself to the law, while Richard
Olney. although figuring in the political
gossip now and then, would appear to be in
private life to stay. Certain 1t is that the
politicians do not rate him. his personal
friends do as presidential quantity.
But Mr.. Cleveland is alive and well. still
an object of political interest, still willing to
listen to those who think that the country
is absolutely dependent on him for good
government and as willing as ever to put
on the harness at the peoples command.

Autumn.

The brisk wind and the rains of the past
few days have loosened the leaves from
the trees and strewn the ground with them
The autumn has come in earnest. and now
is the time for walks into the country, to
get the full flavor of the passing season and
to enjoy the calm of the fall. There is a
charm about such rambles in October which
is not to be round even in the delectab BILE
outings of the spring. when nature is bud
ding and all the world tells of promise and
joy AS the feet rustic through the dead
leaves under the trees in a grove and the
eye discerns the many shades of brown
which tone the landscape, the thought
arises of a finishing work, with the sense
of accomplishment which is always well
come. 1t is not death. but rest. for which
this annual stripping of the foliage stands
in the symbolism of nature. The trunks
from which the leaves are falling are not
passing away, but boarding their strength,
after season of development, to prepare
for another season of further growth. The
leaves which lie under foot are not waste,
but they are returning to the soil the MIA.

into gas and the atmosphere absorbs IT
and the rains bring it back to the SOIL and
so the process continues indefinitely. The
true nature lover will tread the forest floor
with light heart, gladdened by the

perhaps by a revival of his boyishness

INDIANAPOLIS and New York.

Will the result of the mayoralty contest
in Indianapolis have any effect on the may
orally contest in New York? Fusion and
reform won in the Hoosier capital yester-
day by. what in the circumstances is
handsome plurality
Mayor Bookwalter. who stood for re-elec-
ton. is a republican. Two pleas were made
in his behalf. One was that he had made
a good official. and the other was that the
republicans should hold the town partly for
the effect on next years presidential race
The success Of the opposition. with demo-
crat at the head of the ticket, would, 1t
was urged be discouraging to the view held
throughout the country that Indiana is now
a republican state.
Many republicans however refused to ac-
cept this appraisement of the situation.
They charged that the contest was not po-
litical. but purely for good local govern
ment and that Mayor Bookwalter had
failed to provide such government for
the town. They asserted that everything
under his administration had been wide
open;'' that the gamblers and saloon keep
ers had operat ted without restraint. and that
the time had come to enforce the laws and
put check on the vicious They put poll
tics entirely aside and asserted that they
would be none the less good and active re-
publicans in the national race next year for
supporting a good democrat for mayor OF
Indiana polls on non-partisan grounds this
year And so, on yesterday. Mayor Book
walter. who had a plurality of 1,635 two
years ago lost to his opponent by over
thousand plurality. Party lines were
broken on both sides reform republicans
supporting Mr.. Hoffman and wide open"
democrats supporting Mr.. Bookwalter.
Thus we see reform come into power in
Indianapolis despite the efforts to have ma
tional issues overshadow the situation.
Many republicans, feeling that local abuses
needed correction. rejected all overtures
to stay in line. They voted yesterday as
they thought their home interests de-
manded In New York reform is already
in power. and has justified its control of
affairs a hundred fold. The question is,
Shall it remain in power? Those democrats
who helped invest it with power are be-
sought to vote this year not on local but on
national issues: to think of next years
presidential contest, and help bring Tam
many, with all of it's offenses, back to the
old stand and to it's old style of doing bust
ness. Will they yield? Or will they stand
out, as the republicans of Indianapolis did,
in favor of their own ideas of municipal
cleanliness?

The Game in Gotham.

1t was not to be expected that District
Attorney Jerome would sulk in his tent
throughout the New York municipal cam
paign however hurt he might have felt be-
cause his strenuously voiced advice was
not taken by the fusionists in the matter of
the mayoralty nomination. He is not that
sort of man. He is active, aggressive. a
fighter and he could no more have remained
than well-bred bulldog can keep from
joining canine melee. So il was not sur
prising that Mr. Jerome walked upon the
stage at Cooper Union in New York last
night. and, on being wildly cheered by the
vast audience, proceeded to deliver an i'm
promptu speech couched in the warmest
terms of Endorsement of the Low admins
tration and condemnation of Tammany and
all its works. Judging from the report Mr..
Jerome's prestige with the people has not
been materially lessened by his letters,
although one man did scoffingly ask him
about the Fulton correspondence. In the
publication of which Mr.. Jerome did not
show up in very good light. The temper
of the crowd was unmistakable, and if Je
rome will make a few more speeches like
that of last night he will infuse much

In the cable report of Lord Roseberys
speech at Sheffield last night championing
free trade against Mr. Chamberfain's
policy, appears this sentence: Lord Rose
berry made no attempt to refute Mr. Cham
berlain's contention by argument, statistics
or detailed examination of his proposals,
and confined himself to generalizations ;"
That was strictly in keeping with the tao
tics of your free trader. His strong suit
whenever you pinch him is generalzing. He
has some beautiful theories, and he ex-
pounds them when in good rhetorical form
in most pleasing terms, but he scorns de-
tails. Statistics are dry, and interfere with
the flow of language. The figures afforded
by the Dingley law are, as rule, most
scrupulously avoided by the free trade ora
tors of the United States.

of a seat in the United States Senate.
