AT PORT ARTHUR.

1t is quite probable that tremendous
effort to capture Port Arthur by assault
will be made today in especial honor of
the Emperor whose natal day it is.
For a. week all the japanese artillery
has been playing on the Russian works
assault in force. According to rumor
the Japanese have been tunneling since
September so as TO blow up some of the
principal defences. Incidents of the
siege since october 1. are the destruc
ton of Port Arthur's waterworks and
srnokeless powder magazine and the
Gripping of some of the warships in
the inner harbor, and an increase of
vigilance on the part of Admiral Togo's
blockade by which many efforts TO
smuggle contraband into Port Arthur
have been frustrated.
Today may roll UP a tremendous Jap
anese loss and may at the same time
end in a splendid japanese victory. 1t
must be kept in mind, however, that
the Russians are fighting better all the
time. They are getting their second
wind and at Port Arthur they have had
the news of the sailing of the Baltic
fleet and are eorrespondingly encour-
aged. Behind defences as they are,
with some fifty forts in hand, they will
make the fight of their lives. On the
other hand are overwhelming numbers
of the finest infantry in the world, ev
cry man in line being Indifferent to his
own life and only concerned for the
honor and glory of the Emperor Such
a meeting will cause rivers of blood to
flow and may set up landmark in
history.

ON THE VERGE or DEFEAT.

The appearance of Judge Parker on
the stump shows how desperate the
Democratic cause has become. Judge
Parker started out as a sphinx. but
the craven image has at last grown
voluble 1t was his purpose, as his
friends said last summer, to preserve
the same digniffed reticence in the can
vass for election that he had in the
canvass for nomination. He might
welcome friends at Esopus with few
political remarks but he would not
leave his immortal retirement and seek
the Office of President in the dust and
heat of strife. Such a contest would
be unbecoming where the prize is q
indeed and the Democratic papers hail
ed the Roman spirit of the Judge, but
when it began TO look as if the Roman
parallel might extend only to that time
the enemy rushed into the Forum and
plucked them by the beard, even Parker
became FESTIVE. Finally, when things
got worse, the nominee forced himself
to go to New York twice a week and
direct the campaign and now he finds
himself on the stump making, at times.
two speeches a day.
When the General rides to the ex
treme front, seizes a standard and tries
to rally his men, the battle is all but
lost. Such a spectacle has been met
Johnson swung around the circle
making speeches for his life, but he
came within one vote of impeachment
and his term ended in ignominy. In
1868 Horatio Seymour kept to his Deer
field farm in quiet dignity until October
came, when he too went on the stump.
But it was no use; the day was lost.
Horace Greeley, four years later tried
to turn the adverse tide by strong
forensics, but he lost the election by
seven-eighths of the electoral votes |
And now Parker throws himself into the
breach in one final struggle against |
the fate which is big with promise of /
a Republican victory. Cleveland comes |
to help but is of no avail. This is rot
a Democratic year.
1t is a pity that Bryan or Hearst
could not have been marked for this
sacrifice. Parker is too good man to
be led to the slaughter in this way.
