Congress and Local Campaigns.

One result OF the protra cted session Of
Congress may be the throwing into the
shade somewhat Of the state and city
campaigns scheduled for this year In
terest is already 80 great in the tariff.
the currency. and the charges respecting
lobby work in this town and elsewhere
relating to national legislation. that if it
continues. and particularly If develop
ments increase il. local matters. even If
with a semi-national bearing, may not
arouse the usual attention
As The Star recently pointed out the
campaigns in Massa chusetts, New Jersey
and New York have elements worthy of
wide note In Massachusetts a state
ticket is to be elected. and both the tariff
and bull mocsery will be factors in the
contest. The democratic tariff revision
hits the industries OF the Bay state pretty
hard. And yet the bull moosers, pro-
claiming protection sentiment, are hold
ing out against a united effort with the
republicans.
New Jersey IS the Presidents state
and naturally both sides will fight for il
with the utmost zeal. The tariff should
cut a figure there. Local industries. as in
Massachusetts. will be affected by the
Underwood revision. If the state goes
democratic. both the President and the
new tariff law will score If the repub-
lcans win. the President and his tariff
friends will be considerably discounted.
In New York the contest. city and state.
will be largely on Tammany as an issue.
The tariff. however. should cut a figure
upstate. where both the manufacturing
and the agricultural interests will be at
fected by tie lower new duties But. in
the main. Tammany will be the storm
center: and if Tammany is overthrow
in both city and state a condition will be
created which may prove embarra ssing 10
the democracy beyond the borders of the
state. For. with all of it's defects and
| abhorrent record. Tammany is the great
| democratic influence in the state, and In

| for carrying the state. When Tammany

cares Of office ceased for the time to
trouble. and the weary was at rest.
That was Mr.. Lincoln's way. When
cares pressed hard. and the weather
added to the burden he sought and
found solace and lethe in the entertain
ing yarns Of the day. His intimates
sometimes found him without his coat
and in slippers enjoying stories that
were then convulsing the rank and filc
of readers.
Students of his character and career
are agreed it was the humor in his
conn osition which saved the day for
Mr.. Lincoln in war times and Garlic.
