ono Of the dramatic incidents in that
party of many dramatic events-the old
Know Nothing. which aimed TO have all
political offices filed by native born
Americans only-was the defeat of its
candidate for governor in the New York
state election of 1854. the first OF the two
years when the party was at the height
OF It's strength, nationally.
When the Know Nothings nominated
Daniel Uuman. prominent lawyer. for
governor, they confidently expected to
elect him In a three cornered Contest, and
this confidence was increased by the ovi-
dent fright of the Democrats and the
Wing Temperance coalition at tho prob
ability of Know Nothing success. But just
when it seemed as though nothing could
prevent a Know Nothing wave from
sweeping Unman into the gubernatorla
chair, from some unknown quarter there
arose tho declaration that the head of the
natvo-born American ticket was noN a
native American at all. but one Of Euro.
poan parentsge who had been born in tn,
East Indies At once there arose the crs
of "Hindoo" Ulman; It went all over IN,
state. checking the sweep towards IN,
Know Nothings. and ultimately resulted
in the defeat of both Ullman and IIorati,
Seymour, the Democratic candidate. VIII,

FRIEND oF CRIMINALS.

TIE contempt for the courts OF his state
Il shown by Governor Patterson of Tennes-
see in pardoning the brutal slayer of former
Senator Carmacll the moment after the high
court had affirmed the decision of the lower
court, which sentenced Cooper to the peniten-
tiary for twenty years, calls attention to the
Pqrdoning record of Patterson.
According to the record, Patterson is the
greatest Jail deverer of the age His chief
occupation seems to be upsetting the work of
the courts.
During the trhe more than three years he
has held the office of Governor, Patterson has
issued Qs6 pardons. He has freed 162 murder
ers, Io3 illicit liquor sellers, Us persons con-
victed of carrying concealed deadly weapons,
124 persons convicted of larceny, and 4o2 Grim
inals serving sentences for other misdemeanors.
His average has been almost six pardons
week and on one day he granted 80 pardons
The work of I52 judges, 22S lawyers and S24
iurvmen in murder cases has been nullihed
Such record of course is a mookery of JUS
tice and il is no wonder that Patterson pardoned
the murderer of Carmack. The friends OF the
Governor say that ne granted most of these par
dons on petition, as if that were an excuse. But
the Governor himself declares that he has exer-
cised the pardoning power in the interest OF
humanity, a very elastic phrase by which it IS
often sought to cover multitude of sins.
But is there cause to wonder at the lawless-
ness and the pistol carrying habit in Southern
states especially in Tennessee, when a man
sworn TO uphold the law and its enforcement
makes a plaything of it? Certainly there should
be a check upon the pardoning power of Gov
ernor like Patterson. Such defiance of law and
order as he has shown is prolific source OF
lvnching and lack of confidence in the author-
ties as punishers of crime. 1t is an encourage
ment to the awless to commit crimes whenever
they are so disposed.

when the charge was brought against
him that he was an East Indian" said the
late Stephen +. Taylor, at one time presi-
dent of Madison College, now Colgate Uni
vcrsity, "Mr. ullman declared that he
would not dignity the accusation by an
swering #; he would rest on the positive
declaration that he was an American
citizen by inheritance and birthright. TO
this attitude he stuck all through the CAM

being poked at him-a foreigner-for dar-

SELF SEEKING DEMOCRATS.

VAT 4 gather from the Dover Index that self
w seeking aspirants for United States
Senator among the Democrats are busying
themselves in trying TO have legislative candi-
dates named who will vote as they desire.
The Index remarks that from a Democratic
standpoint the public interests would be best
served and the Democratic chances of victory
best aided by selecting the very best men as
legislative candidates regardless of their prefer
ences for Senator.
This is good advice, which could be followed
with profit by the Republicans as well by
the Democrats The Index thinks the choice
of a Senator should be left to the caucus and
adds that much self-seeking may destroy the
chances of the party for victory The ndepend-
ent vote should be appealed to, it says
This reads very we'll, but such counsel is not
likely to be followed by the Democrats. For
some reason members Of that party think they
have a chance of winning. They have often
thought so before, but time proved that they
were mistaken.
The Democratic leaders who have been in the
fray for years are ready to take another shot at
the Senatorshp and the fight among the Demo
Gratis will be solely with the Senatorial success
sion in mind If the Democrats should happen
to win. we think there will be a legislative dead
lock and hard contest The old factonal lines
have not been oblitcrated by any means and it
will be a battle to the finish among the various
elements of the party.

Hearst, through Colonel John Graves. who is
