Aa the poetic Bollin M. Squire might have observed, the flight of twenty-four hours across the face of Time’s dial has not simpli fied the terms of the Eepublioau Presidential problem nor added anything of decisive in terest to the Chicago drama. The fermen tation increases as the representatives pf rival, aspirants pour into the city and the B^rp: attrition of plotting cliques and fac tions generates a heat that is some atonement for the delinquencies of the themometor. Amid these concluding scenes of the chaos produced by the “retirement” of Mr. Blaine the pivotal element is still the doubt as to whether that retirement really retires—as to whether he may n o lbe in a position anala- Bgous to that which Senator Edmunds pie- tured him as occupying when the subsidized railroad companies were arraigned before ■Congress—^ready at any moment to leap up from behind his intrenohments and become the leader in the fight. Our correspondent yesterday sketched the latest phenomena in the way of “ booms,” showing that those of Alger and Gres ham were the most active, and to all ap pearances . the most formidable. Nobody was prepared to say exactly what would happen, but none denied., the possibility of a “ Blaine blizzard.” Judge Gresham, who is holding court in a building immediately opposite to the headquarters of his political friends, comes and goes, with a modest mien that charms every beholder and greatly in creases the enthusiasm for him. The lum ber lord of Michigan, General Alger, is credited with having generously supplied the means of advertising his candidacy by the display of a profusion of banners and bunt ing and numerous evidences of the photo grapher’s and engraver’s art. So, while the outward and visible symbols give the impres sion that the Michigander is far in the lead, the talk of the town shows that Gresham’s local popularity eclipses that of all others. Since onr advices of last evening the story • ^ comes that Mr. 'Walker Blaine mysteriously wliispered through the corridors of the hotels that his father preferred the 'Wolverine ex- Govemor to all others, and on the strength of that story the Alger boom expanded in fine style. But subsequent tidings, which do not confirm the whisperings attribnted to young Mr. Blaine, indicate the dissatisfac tion of Eastern Eepublicans with the manner in which the Algerites are working things. Their abundant supply of money has aroused a suspicion that the ex-Governor has opened a “bar’l,” and as that is an offenie which the party of great moral ideas cannot con sistently condone, it has caused a burst of virtuous indignation among the canvassers for other candidates. Moreover, the fact is emphasized that, like Mr. Depew, ei-Gov- emor Alger is the president of a railroad company, and if the Northwest objects to the magnetic New Yorker on account of his association nith the Central and Hudson Elver Bailroad, it would stultify itself by seriously urging the claims of the Alichi- gan favorite. If a man heavily interested in corporations is not a suitable person to head the Chicago ticket what answer, it is asked, con the ex-Governor’s friends make to the statement that he is president of the Detroit, Bay City and Alpena Eailroad, and largely interested in the Eio Grande Live Stock Company, the Buhl Iron 'Works, the ------ Peninsular Car Company, the Detroit Copper snd Brass Eolling Mills and the Parish, Broth ers & Peck Electrical Company. The strongest boom of all is believed to be the weakest. That paradox is justified by the history of Presidential nominations. The argument is that because John Sherman will receive the greatest number of votes of any candidate on the first ballot, his defeat is almost certain. It is admitted that he will receive as high as 300—a larger total than any of his rivals at present claim. But this numerous array is held together by a rope of sand. Nobody believes the Buck eye statesman will be nominated, and the principal reason for this is that nobody par ticularly wants him. His conceded abilities do not make up for his apparent selfishness and his total lack of those qualities of the heart which do so much to render their poa.sessors popular. Chairman Cappellar, of the Ohio State Oommiiioo, oml kfr. Jlnrat Halstead have his interests in charge and talk with a confidence they do not feel. Sherman was not only not born to be President, but not bom to be nominated. Ben Harrison, with his soldier’s record and his grandfather’s glory, to back him, is championed by no less astute a manager than Colonel John C. New, of the Indianapolis Journal, the leading Ee- publican paper of Indiana. The Colonel reached the field of contest yesterday - and began a sharp attack on the Gresham lines. It is believed that if the Harrison men fail to impress the Convention with the policy of Vying in secure Indiana by nominating the general, their next move will bo to use all their influence to baffle the hopes of the Greshamites. They propose to themselves two objects. Tha-first-ia to Harrison on - ^ th'h .ticket and, failing in that, to beat the Dlinois favorite. From a remark dropped by the gallant colonel it is inferred that Alger • would be a convenient club with which to carry out their second object. Of Eastern candidates there was compara tively little talk. The discussion of the prob lem of the pivotal States has not yet fairly begun, and untU it is well under way the “ claims” of the West in the matter of fur nishing timber for the ticket will be para- momit There were occasional utterances in favor of Mr, Deijew, particularly after the discovery that Alger was as much of a corporation man as the fascinating New Yorker, but in almost every instance these Utterances were ooxipled with a doubt of his : ability to preserve intact the Republican vxolumn of Western States. Enough has been revealed of the state of sentiment ■' in-that section to justify Mr. Depew in requesting bis friends to postpone their ad- f voca'cy of him until 1892. He has the virtues _ to win men which Henry Clay had, and these virtues may ha of more service to him than Clay’s were to the great Whig leader, if his . friends will but improve the moral of the Baying that patient waiting is no loss. H e I s O t Age« Colonel Fellows, District Attorney of the City and County of New York, says that he is of age and that he shall go o^t of town when he ; pleases and stay as long as bo chooses, asking permission only of Mrs. Fellows. This duti ful domestic qualification will be recog nized and applauded, and in other respects It will scarcely be denied that he is ^logical in his conclusions and justified in his de cision. That is , to say, the people be yond the Bridge have in effect authorized Colonel Fellows to *go out of town when he pleases and stay as long as he chooses, believing with Mayor Hewitt that a‘ ‘simpie ChnstianUf e” ; 2 an be ordered as carefully .and consistently ■ in the groves, which were the first temples, penehth the Gothic arohitectufe of the trees, ; >niid the lowing of kine, the hum of insects, ihe babbling of brooks, in view of the solemn ; aills, surrounded by all the scenes and sounds of the perpetual Sunday of remote rural regions, as within the. noisy environment of , - the restless city. Judge Barrett and other members' of the minority, who thiuk that tlplonel Fellows ought to stay at home and to his business, consider the case l l ^ p t ^ w h a t morrowly. T h e ' District Attor-■ furiuah^ ^ e a t many: ciol casOT, aubh as the i pioseoution of pffloM' bribe takprs. and : g i v ^ , the indiotnieut of men who conunU eleotorai anil jother frauds, matters upon which the skill iatid eloquence of Colonel Fellows might bs employed with rare and brilliant results, the obvious reply is that they forget that the voters have practit cally condoned these offenses. The issue in the late District Attorney convass was 'by no means a merely personal one. Thpugh not in terms distinctly, in effect the question at the polls was: “ Shall the prosecution of official bribe takers and givers, ballot box and count swin dlers, and other criminals whose crimes re late in any way to politics or politicians, go forward energetically, or shall all these guilty men be allowed to escape ?” The voters pro nounced for the latter alternative by electing Colonel Fellows. They said to him as plain ly as if they had written the words on their tickets: “ Go out of town when you please 'and stay os long oa you choose, without ask ing permission of ^ u d g e Barrett or anybody else out of your own household, and giving yourself no concern about the proseoutions as to which so much fuss has been made, for wo' purpose to wipeout all these cases as with Mr. Silver Bland’s sponge.” Colonel Fellows is certainly of age. 'Whether the City of New York has arrived at years of politioal discre tion, or over will get there, is another ques tion. VVbltner a n d th e O o T o m o n iblp. A 'Washington dispatch to the E agle on 'Wednesday reported that Secretary \Whitney may appear as an aspirant for the Domooratio nomination for Governor of New York this Full. This dispatch may be regarded os im portant, it correct,' and interesting in any event. The correspondent’s estimate of the Secretary of the Navy “as the elusive representative ot the Administration in the affairs of his own State ” is one which Secretary Fairchild, Assistant Secretary May nard and Private Secretary Lament, not to say President Cleveland, cannot deny is grammatically expressed. The danger of re cruiting a State ticket from a Federal cabinet was experienced when Mr. Folger was nominated for Governor. The diffi culty arises from the fact that the President cau hardly escape the imputation of dictating the nomination, although he may not oven approve pf it. President Arthur protested against the nomination of Secretary Folger for Governor In 1882, to no purpose. The people mode up their minds that Arthur forced Folger on the party, that the ticket was made up in 'Washington and they voted it down. To that fact the present President owes the gaining his Presidency. It is hardly a fact on which he is likely to risk the losing of his Presidency. If Mr. Whitney was not in the Cabinet and had never been in it, he would be an acceptable candidate for Governor, provided he could get the support of Tammany for the nomi nation. The correspondent’s idea that. Whitney become Governor and Hill’ a member of the Cabinet is an example of what may bo called “ accommodation poli tics ”—which loaves the people out of the ao- count, to say nothing of a President who does not form his Cabinet on the principle of mak ing any portfolio in it a factor in any State politics whatever. However, the danger of the attractive and readable programme is averted by the printing of it, for that sort of thing, to escape catastrophe, should escape publication. The T r n lh Abba! tke B a r ’b Some of the Western supporters of Mr. Gres ham are complaining that the reason why their candidate forthe Eepublican Presidential nomination does not find favor in New York is because he is not a millionaire and has no syndicate of rich friends who would he willing to go into the market and buy votes for him. In other words it is urged that Mr. Gresham would be a much stronger candidate it he- were hacked by “ hoodie” instead of having to rely purely on the excellence of his record and the enthusiasm of his supporters. There is no use disguising the fact that money has perhaps more weight in deciding a Presidential contest than anything else. It has much to do in influencing the action of nominating bodies. Fifteen hours before Gar field was apparently “surprised” by his nom ination in 1880 at Chicago, Louis F. Payn reported to Eoscoe Conkling, who there led the Grant forces, that he had been offered $125,000 to deliver 100 delegates to Garfield’s managers on the assembling of the conven tion the next day. The offer was declined by Payn, but Garfield was nominated all the same, it being believed that other men made a market of the opportunity. Nor is it any less well known that Tilden’s personal output in 1876 was $865,000. In the same year, however, “ Uncle Sammy\ made $1,327,000 by a lucky speculation in iron which he bought at $13 and sold at $42 per ton. After the election in 1880 the late \Vice President Arthur was severely censured for Baying that “ soap” carried Indiana. But his remark was true for all that. The Ee- pnhlioaus put $1,125,000 into the State and the Democrats $740,000. They would have expended a larger amoimt and probably car ried the State, too, if their “ bar’l ” had not run out—a fact which shows very clearly that *klr. iinuire taVint Via was talking about. In 188-i the Union League Club of New York contributed $150,000 toward the election of Blaine, and Mr. Jay Gould contributed $100,000, making around quarter of a million. It has been charged that Mr. John J. O’Brien and two friends were to use the money to buy votes, but that they never applied it to that purpose. George Bliss stated this over his own siguatura in letters to the New York Herald. What is certain is that a few of the Republican “ machine ” managers in New York City have not been poor from that day to this. In 1885, when. Mr. Davenport ran for Gov- ernor against David B. Hill, he gave the Eepublican Campaign Committee $40,000, and the evidence taken at the Aqueduct In vestigation shows that Mr. Hill, by means of notes, raised the sum of $20,000 as hia own contribution to the election fund. 'These are plain facts, but they are not less notorious than those connected with the bestowal of all nominations in our big cities. There is no public official from Judge of a Supreme Court down to ward con stable who has not to pay royally for hia nomination, and it is the rule and not the exception to see a can didate spend nearly as much for his elec tion as his salary for his whole term would amount to, if not more. To assume that the evil is oharacteristio of one party more than another is wrong. Tammany Hall and the County Democracy, in proportion to the means at their disposal, ware willing to spend as much to elect Cleveland as the Union Club and Jay Gould were to elect Blaine. The only difference was that in the one case the money reached the hands of the voters, and that in the other it did not, but reposed, as alleged, in the pockets of Mr. O’Brien and his col leagues. . Judging, then, from the experience of four years ago, Mr. Gresham’s friends may con sole themselves with the refleotion that, while the possession of a “ hoodie” is an almost in dispensable requisite to success, it by no moans follows that it will reach the people for whom it is intended. Is there any one foolish enough to believe that the politicians are giving their time and energies to the “ cause ” for glory alone ? And would it not be much more gratifying to the vultures who prey on campaign funds to see a candidate with a “ bar’l ” selected—one who would bo able to make things happy all around for the “ boys”—than a candidate who has nothing but bis name and record to commend him ? No doubt it is a fine commentary on the condition of politics in this country when the popular suffrage is so largely controlled, by dollars and cents. We ‘see no reason what ever to question the assertion that the opposi tion to - Gresham, who is'a - poor man, has emanated largely from the blood suckers who are more ooncerhed in feathering their own nests than they are in; securing the election of a Eepublican President. It is well enough to say that honest voters may be relied upon to elect a candidate be cause it is tooira to them that he could not pr would hot raise a corrnption fttUd, b ut the people wlip‘ stack up sentiment against; dollars in the': tlh & y p o p ifiat0 w of NewfiMk' pity. fP? eiaippie, are lia^le to reap the fruits ,vm '.hatem o « to ao^tbaetenhialng the islUing down.' trousers thm V f PK b S h W io W ‘ ' j ............... • LUM B E R . I . X h eRpooha Agatiii In the absence of most of the theatrical and musical entertaimuontsand social excitements; that keep New York busy dating the- season Ann O’Delia Montez Salomon Diss Debar, etc., etc., has won the thanks of many in the community for tbe amusement that she has gratuitously furnished. James iOweu O’Oonor. the “ somewhat difforout” tragedian, hides his shrunken head in the dim seclusion of a West Twenty-third sireet variety show, while the Salomon O’Delia Montez Dies Debar, etc., eto., smiles a large and greasy smile from the stage of Part II., General Sessions, and probably re - - grets that there is no gate money for anybody . except the lawyers. The . continuation of her trial on a charge of swindUng Luther K. Marsh out of a house and lot was resunied yesterday, and the usual crowd watched and listened eagerly when she oped her ponderous and marble jaws and renewed her self condemna tory statements. Not a blush showed through her leathern cheek when she confessed to the various frauds and impositions that she had perpetrated against those who had befriended her at various times, but she still held that the daubs painted in the closet by her quasi hiiSr band were the veritable work of spooks— spooks tbat had shaken off ability and genius with other trammels of the flesh; though she ,did not , say that. She told Judge Gilder- sleeve that when the spirit was upon her she would try to work off a spook picture or two, just to show how it could be done, but it'is safe to predict that the spirit wiU not descend upon her in the nncongeuial environment of a court room. It has been observed all through the history of Spiritualism that “mejums\ are never affected in the daytime nor when people are looking at them with any other expression b ut that of implicit con fidence. ' Though the pictures that she and her part- ner supplied in such quantities to Mr. Marsh in return for the house and lot and board and lodging are awfully bad in an artistic sense, it is pleasing to know that in some depart ments of learning and endeavor the spooks have progressed. We have it on authority of Ann Salomon O’Delia Montez, etc., etc., that the letter she addressed to her dupe, offering to restore his property, was advised by a “council of ten,” namely, Homer, Pericles, Archimedes, Epaminondas, Plato, Aristotle, Pelopidas, Pythagoras, Socrates and Cicero. These gentlemen met in her presence, Socrates moved that she should restore the property, the motion was seconded and the crowd, passed it without a dis senting voice. What is particularly interest ing is that the convention followed the pro cedure laid down in Cushing’s Manual and that they all spoke English. It is, perhaps, a little odd that Cicero, being a Roman, should have been cbosen as a member of this council since iBschylus, Diogenes, Alexander, Brian Bom and other eminent Greeks were open for engagements, b ut Cicero was only a go as you please sort of Roman, after oil, ad dicted to philosophy, long speeches, Homeric language and the like attributes of Attic cul ture. The visit of these celebrities likewise sustains a hope, that the meanest may indulge, of ultimate communion with the departed great. Here were ten of the mighty assembled to decide a question of morals and policy for a “ mejnm ” who would have been unable to decide it' for herself, as they did. Can we not therefore indulge the flattering, unction that among onr partionlar guardians may be enumerated some of the wise and noble of the past, and that when straggling with doubt.as to whether it would be morally right in us to pay the last bill sent in by tbe landlord or the grocer we may call on An- drew Jackson, Henry VIII., Lucrezia Borgia and the War Issue to aid in settling the ques tion? For this hope the Princess Diss Debar O’Delia, etc., etc., is to be thanked, and for what she has furnished to the papers in the dry spell just preceding the political nomina tions she deserves a medal. O a e s s e s a n d R a m o r s * The Republican nomination in 1880 was a surprise, but before the interesting conven tion of that year there was far less vagueness in men’s minds as to probable results than there'is now in regard to next week’s pro ceedings at Chicago. In the absence of sub stantial bases for intelligent forecasting the wildest guesses are put forth and the most preposterous rumors ciroxfiate. For example, to-day that often gravely amusing contemporary, the New York Ptmes, argues at great length that preparations are making to “ force the nomination of Blaine.” It would be hard to sny whether this reflects more upon the common sense of Blaine him self or of his party. For more than a year the Times, the Evening Post and all the Mugwump and Democratic journals, to say nothing of the Eepublican press, have been contending that Blaine was the choice of the overwhelming majority of Eepablicans, that the candidacy would go to him, if he would take it, as certainly as the sun would rise on nominating day. There is no doubt they were right about this. Yet, according to the Times' present argument, Blaine, with an absolutely sure thing before him, runs a groat and unnecessary risk and hazards the support of his_ friends by declining the nomination twice, in b f d o f 'ta ■•xorco\ it. There could not be a better jiUnstration of the vagueness as to the near future which affects even able and experienced ob servers. Another absurd assertion recently made is that Mr. Robert T. Lincoln is going to intercede in Europe with Mr. Blaine in behalf of Judge Gresham. The merest be- ginners in politics, if they have such nego tiations in view, know enough to conduct them privately. They do not formally appoint com missioners, as if to make a Fishorjes treaty, and then publish the fact. Among many conclu sive arguments against tbe Lincoln embassy is the consideration that it is wholly unneces sary. Communication between Mr. Blaine beyond the sea and the leaders on-this side is easy. There is no need for a personal mes senger. . Perhaps more preposterous was the report thot Mr. Blaine had written' a letter to Chairman Jones urging the nomination of Mr. Sherman. If the object was to defeat the Ohio Senator this would be a good way to accomplish the result. But why should Mr. Blaine commit himself to a candidate whom he wishes to be thrown over at Chicago ? He would naturally desire to make his choice effectual, and he has sense enough^ to know that to dictate it openly and formally, as by an imperial edict, would be to make success at the convention impos.sible. It is not worth while to consider other arguments against the rumor, for Mr. Jones denies that there is such a letter. --------------- *. ----- - ------ B i f u r c a t e d B l i s s . Tbe news that \Willie Aster has bought forty-seven pairs of trousers in London will.\ crowd OB many emotions into the hearts of those young men who live on hotel steps and toothpicks as they experienced when a full report of Albert Edward’s necktie was sent over hero by Atlantic cable. At mere mention of London made pantaloons the New-York dude experiences a feeling akin to that born in the breast of maidenhood by tales of love and invitations to ice creaia, or tbat surges through the vitals of small boys in presence of. pie. How, then, will ha survive the actual, physical fact of Willie Astor’s trousers when they are displayed in a low necked dog cart, or blazoned forth upon the avenue ? WiU his manful yearnings for English panta loons be stimnlated to adventuro.us devices for securing them WUi he appeal to pa for permission to tun oyer to London just long enough to be measured for few pair f WiU he employ private detectives to follow 'Willie Astor and draught the psitteras of those trousers for future use?

And -srill he see young William’s forty.«6ven pairs and go him two or three better, dra-wing^ M itwere, to a royal flush of flEy? ^ \Fifty different trbns'ers 1 ^Oh, joy I Trous- era for, eye:^ hpuy and.cifcnmstanqe; tronsers - for the p a r ^ ; tronseM f o r the ,Camho|\ for the stage door, trousers for; the Hoffman it is rtdning-.ih London\ troiasera to wear jwiiile reading-JPMiii^ and sipping\ shtm Itrousers in which' tb ask the faybred onb if she 'will be ]U8, tronsers -to wear when she says she; will not, trousers for church, trousers for^ balla, trousers to match the oahes \carried at different periods of .the . day, trousfrs w th bheoks, tronsers with stripes, trousers w t t .spots, blue trousers, green trousers, white trousers, eora trousers, trousers that ore stout, trousers with a tailor’s lien, peg .topped tronsers, splay foot tronsers—an array that makes life one long and blissful dream of trousers. Then can the dude go into the house and come out, fresh every hour, with\ legs new clothed:in silks and velvets, co^cious: that he is a vision of superior.loveliness and. that even the proud scion of the Astor house is not so radiantly arrayed, - At a recent performance oLwhat is grossly known in.theat»s as a leg show, in Boston, a delegation of Harvard students sat in the. front row, and when the faintly' appareled ladies of the Amazon corps appeared on .the 'stage these nurslings at the Atheneon font flung open their coats, each displaying on his chest a square of paper, large lettered, read ing, “ Do You Wear Pants ?” As no gentle man wears “ pants,” there was a delicate show of consideration in this inquiry. R would interfere with the dude’s scheme of dress to placard himself , but what he can do without disarranging hia garments, and - what lie probably will do when he becomes the owner of fifty different sets of pantaloons, will be to stop peopls on Fifth avenue and remark, “ Say, do you wear EngEsh'trousers ?' Id o .” How sad that the form of these gor- ments forbids the simultaneous display of all of them. Were that possible he would be, to quote his own remark, “ beastly happy;” but os it is not he might wear, say, six pairs at a time, making each pair an inch shorter than the one interior to it, so as to exhibit a variety of British dry goods at the bottom of each leg. \We understand that Supervisor at Large Quintard takes exception to “ Rambler’s ” re-, marks last Sunday, among other matters in relation to the Fresl contract at St. Johniand. The gist of the E xole ’ s objection .and proba bly “ Rambler’s” to the signing of that con. tract was, and is, that Mr. Quintard appar ently yielded to pressure in approving it, which he should have repelled. There can be, of course, no Jmputation of corrupt mo-’ tives resting on Mr. Quintard, but the E agle well knows the character and power of pres sure brought to bear, not only on the Super visor at Large, but on officials as much higher than he ns the Governor of the State of New York. Exactly at the point where a contract nomimJly limited to $225,000 could be made, by the opening of a door for pretendedly needed “ extras,-” yield a perfect bonanza to the gang, the. E agle , equally in Mr. Qnin- tard’s best interest and in that of the public, sought to reinforce his resisting qualities. The attempt was unsuccessful then, but,' judg ing from Mr. Quintard’s recent effort to supersede the gong in St. Johniand matters, by a reform Commission, of which he was to he the head, it is doubtful whether a like at tempt would fail a second time. Indeed, it would seem as if Mr. Quintard now had rea son to believe that the E aole was right. Mr. Henry W. Jaehne, ei-Boodle Alderman and at present a Sing Sing convict, will con tinue to reside in his spacious quarters, on the banks of the Hudson, until the expiration of the term of his seutenoe, unless sooner discharged for good behavior. \ His coun sel raised a very plausible point in his behalf and argued it before Judge Benedict, of the United States Court, but the latter decided that there was no lawful ground for interference by the Federal Courts. The plea Was based on Seetion 9, of Article 1 of the Constitution, which pro hibits the passage of any ex post facto law. Judge Benedict ruled that inasmuch as the Court of Appeals had decided that section 72 of the Penal Code under which Jaehne was convicted was prospective only in its opera tion, that decision was binding on the federal courts under the familiar rule, that the oon- straotion of a State statute by the highest court of the State is regarded ^ part of the. statute by the national courts. Meetings of the Demooratio ward associai tions, reported in the E aole from day to day, prove that the St. Louis ticket is taklhg ad- mitably with the party; also that the local politicians are not slow to put themselves “ on record,” as approving of it. The basis is laid in Midsummer speeches for petitions for appointment to office after the November election. Still, hot weather meetings do not count for very much. People will not be stirred np until the Fall. The Civil Service Commissioners are going on with Fire Department examinations and trill make a new and honest list. The empti. ness of the protest to the State Board was in dicated by the contemptuous silence with which Mayor Chapin turned the paper over to the- Commissioners. Since the latter received it and resolved thot it was unworthy of serious notice the Mayor has signified his ap proval of their course by saying simply: “ I think the Commission is fully able to take care of itself and think it has done so.” It is further underetood that ho believes the protest to be so utterly empty that he assumes that the momhers of the State Board—General Sickles and Messrs. ManSmg TinO-Treadwell _ ^had little or nothing to do -with it, but that it is the work of an enterprising rather than ingenious secretary. It is to be taken for granted that the State Commissioners desire the general success of the Civil Service system. With particular and local failure general success is impossible. Let us have an honest Fire list. Mr. Justice Miller, of the Supreme Court, is suggested as a Republican dark horse. The Eepublicans have no need of dark horses this time, and nearly all those -who would have baeu serviceable in tbe event of such a neoes. sity Lave been carefully groSmed and are now being led up and down the track by their admiring jockeys, if there should be a,tug of war in the oonvenlian, the mention of a party by the name of Blaine would interrupt the proceedings in time to prevent any very- serious consequences and lead to a>most en. thuBiastio proclamation of peace, unity and concord. Mr. Thomas G\ Shearman has an article in Belfordds Magazine, in which he colls the American workingman’s attention to the fact that the high rate of wages here attracts im migrants to our shores.

THE SOCIALISTS LACK LEADEI^, W lktcU A c c o a n t s f o r th e A b s e n c e o f a n O n t b r o a k f n Ijo iidoa* [Copyright 1888.} L ondon , June 14. That there have not boon Socialistic outbreaks lu London before now is owing, so far as can bo Judged, to the lack of leaders who can rouse the starving thousands to tho necessary pitch of desperation. Of the many furious orators who harangue the. crowds in Hyde P ark on Sundays, the best speakers are Germans. Albeit, however flory their words and however completely their audiences may agree with their diatribes, the English mind does not take kindly to their accent, and the idea of being led by a foreigner Is repugnant to every Insular heart. Manufacturers are anxiously looking for signs, of Improvement of trade, and mamy of them have a hope that when the United States have passed through the throes of election exports in thutdlreo tion may increase. The warm weather brings Into fuller view tha misery of tho homoless thousands who crowd the squares, contrasting hideously with the luxury around them. What becomes of tbe meu Is a prob lem that only the police can solve. Politicians and political economists have failed to present any aceeptabio remedy fo^* the relief of the starving myriads of the metropolis. Lord Salis bury, in his speech a t the Mansion House, accused the steam engine and improved maobluery of tak ing the bread out of the mouths of those who could never rise abOTO the level of unskilled laborers, but it does not seem tbat this could be prevented. He suggests technical schools to educate the young to handicrafts, but shoals of skilled workmen may be found among the vagrants who h a u n t Trafalgar Squkre by night, and all assert that the trades are overcrowded aud that none but tbe most expert or those having influence stand a chance for employ ment. Staclsliclans may say tbat there Is no such thing as over population and that with the ever in creasing wants of humanity new avouues of Indus try are opening, capable of absorbing the growing number of inhabitants, but the poor will-never be. convinced of the truth of such an assertion. \ Of the remedies proposed, everything coaeidered, emigration Is the best. l£ Is long odds that the ex patriated superfluity will never return, but tho trouble is that the colonies do not want tho material which the home country la desirous of getting rid of. Australia, Now Zealand and Canada consider that they have poor enough of their own, and reso lutely refuse to accept tho refuse of the London slums. It is now proposed to .utilize the latest British acquisition, and the East African Land Com pany, with Us millions of capital, and territories atretchlug from Zanzibar to .Abyssinia and for an indeflalto length to the westward, it is now under stood, will offer its unlimited area as a dumping ground for the London poor. There is no one there to object to their comlug, but'Whether they can dis play energies In anotbor country, tbe want of which has brought them to pauperism in their own, may be doubted.
