AVOIDING ISSUES.

So Hearst the Slanderbunder complains that
'all the corporation candidates are avoiding any
reference to the important issues about which
the people are seriously thinking In this cam
''paign" Well, SO far as one corporation can
didate is concerned he is right, and of him he
speaks with unsurpassed authority. That one
is he who is Of all most conspicuously and es-
sendally corporation candidate, the candidate
whose trust is in corporations and whose cor
poratons are In trust, the candidate of the
Star Company corporation. There can be 70
doubt that he is avoiding many issues about
which the people are seriously thinking.
He is avoiding all reference to his present po-
litical copartnership with Charlie Murphy
whom q little while ago he was denouncing as
vile criminal" and 1.-The chief criminal of
them ALL" particularly for his corruption of
politics and elections.
He is avoiding all reference to the circum.
stances in which he, who poses as the friend and
champion OF organized labor, has committed the
direction Of his political campaign to the notori.
GUS strike breaker, "Fingey' Corners.
He is avoiding all reference to the blatant
championship of himself which he has procured
from the man whom he was recently lampoon-
ing as Bought Cochran and was denouncing
as q blackmailer
He Is avoiding all reference to the support
which he secured from big Tim" Sullivan,
whom he was recently putting In the pillory as
the protector and associate Of criminals"
He is avoiding all reference to the fact that,
while his chief stock In trade is railing against
corporations, he himself is the creator, head and
beneficiary Of a number of corporations, includ.
ing one holding corporation" of the very kind
which he condemns as most vicious; a paper
corporation which pays no taxes which lodges
all legal responsibilities, and which has no tan.
gtble assets
Are not these sufficiently important issues for
this corporation candidate to make some refer.
ence to? Does he suppose the people OF this
state are not thinking seriously about them?

under cloak Of devotion to political indepen-
dence and popular sovereignty. Mr.. McCarren
is justified in citing the nomination of the Inde-
pendence League judiciary ticket in the I'd
Judicial District as an instance of irresponsible
and autocratic dictation. The I'd District COM
prises the counties of Kings, Queens, Nassau
Suffolk and Richmond, and decent regard for
the theory of local self government would re-
quire the nomination of candidates for Justice
ships by the voters Of the district attached to the
Independence League. But such q formality
dismissed as meaningless by our new "polit-
ical Gulliver-" The judiciary ticket for the dis
trict was framed at the Gilsey House by the
Hearst managers, and on the petition filing the
nominations three men were named as q COM
mittee to fill any possible vacancies who do not
even live within the boundaries of the I'd Dis
trict In the face of such exhibitions what be-
comes of Mr.. Hearst's pretence that he Is labor
ing to overthrow bosssm and enlarge the
individual voters power in politics? Bosslsm
based on the party primary is bad enough
But 1t is not 80 bad as the irresponsible junta
form of party management which Mr.. Hearst
has introduced and is now using to the open
eyed astonishment Of the old fashioned bosses.

other king or prince or grand duke given better
promise of imperial possibilities, he would have
used him instead or, had 1t seemed preferable
he might even have created German Republic
instead of German Empire
bismarck was a Prussian and a retainer Of
tha house of Hohenzollern. But before aud
above that he was German. And we may be
lieve that had it seemed necessary for the well
fare of Germany, he would have treated Prus
sIa and the Hohenzollerns just as he treated
Hanover and the Guelphs. SO In all his later
career the keynote of his statesmanship was
not royal but imperial not Prussian, but Ger
man. Prussian though he was, he was also the
foremost champion Of the rights and privileges
OF the other and minor states, even against the
preponderance of Prussia. Whether or not that
fact was potent In causing his dismissal from
the Chancellorship, 1t Is noteworthy that his re-
tirement followed by some unfortunate as
sertion or apprehension Of Prussfas dominance
and by no little disquiet and even resentment
among the other states, even to the extent OF
talk about the possible dissolution OF the empire
So, too, In his conduct of foreign affairs, he SUBJ
ordinated everything to the welfare OF the en-
pre- If alliance with Austria Hungary
seemed best. he made 1t. If alliance with
Russia seemed useful, against the ally he
had already gained, he made 1t.
That, we believe, was the real Bismarck Nor
is the character thus portrayed less admirable
than the various others whicn have been
from time to time invented. Inconsistent In
details, his career was absolutely consistent in
Its chief aim and purpose. We might to an
extent compare his career with that of Thomas
Jefferson, who at one time was with France
against England and the next year wanted an
alliance with England against France; who at
one time was for peace at any price and again
was for war on any pretext; but who all the
time was unwaveringly for America against all
the world. The judgment of the world will be
that Bismarck was an ilustrious example of
unfaltering and triumphant devotion to great
national ideal.

BISMARCK THE GERMAN.

Much light has been shed upon q great bis
| toric character by the revelations of the last
| fortnight including the "indlscreet" publication
| by Prince Alexander Won Hohenlohe of his ia
theirs journals, and the statements of personal
recollections by the Paris correspondent of The
Tribune and by Mr.. George Villiers, the well
known English correspondent. Little, If any, Of
1t is entirely new light. But it makes materially
clearer the worlds view of Otto Won Bismarck
and 1t intensifes into positive conviction that
which was formerly only belief, If, indeed any
thing more than strong suppostion. It shows
US what was the real aim of the Iron Chan
cellor's strenuous policy at home and his some
times tortuous diplomacy abroad, from which
he never turned aside, to which he never hes-
tated to sacrifice anything of lesser value
| which meant practically all things-and which.
we may we'll Imagine, finally contributed In a
large measure to the precipitation of the his.
toric incident mmortalized by Tenniel as 'Drop-
ping the Pilot"
The world has long been accustomed to regard
Bismarck as what he wont to describe him.
self, kings man." and TO suppose his supreme
devotion to have been given to the Hohenzollern
dynasty and TO the Prussian kingdom, and their
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT and glorihcation to have been
the chief desire of his life. Such an estimate
or him is, we are convinced, d great mistake
1t Is true that he cherished for old Kaiser VIII
helm personal friendship of more than ordi-
nary strength and warmth and constant 10y
atty to the crown Of Prussia 1t is also true that
In the campaigns which eliminated at Dueppel
and honiggratz, and which he conceived, con-
rived and caused, Prussia was much aggran-
died In territory and political power But It
would be a short and superficial vision which
did not see beyond these things, and which did
not perceive that TO Otto Won Bismarck they
were merely means to end, and not the end
itself. Bismarck was using the Prussian King
and the Prussian kingdom as pawns. or pieces,
In far greater game, for far greater end
That end was the uniication of Germany and
the creation OF a true German Empire He
made use of Prussia, because Prussia was by
far the largest and most powerful of the Ger
man states, and he made use of the King OF
Prussia because he was by far the most power
fuI Of the German sovereigns, and also because
he was IN temperament a kindred spirit So In
two campaigns he secured for Prussia great
ACKNOWLEDGMENT not that Prussia might eniov
It for herself, but that she might thus be made
a more efficient tool In his hand, stronger piece
In his great game. For Prussia he doubtless
had sentimental regard. because 1t was his
native land. Politically 1t was no more to him
than Reuss or Lippe- -Detmold, excepting as n
was. by virtue OF its size and strength, bettar
fitted TO his purpose. So his regard for Kaiser
Wilhelm was. politically inspired by and meas
ured by that sovereigns availability. Had aay
