'Dunn Matt'a A14re.' BMIf.WH.1iia.m-. The President of the Uurtod States has thrown the. political arena in a tumult that is as novel as it is important. For nearly a quarter of a century the elections have been con trolled by what we are pleased to call the issues of the late civil war and the personal praise and abuse of candidates. In these thi contestants have re solved themselves into a mere struggle foe power to be found in tne Ksses8ion 01 uie uuicen. No meaxnres founded on antag onistic principles of adminis tration have been suggested or discussed. The country, divid ed into two hostile camps, has rallied to one or the other side on a mere difference of names. Thn nlatformasolemnlvDromul- gated by Republican and Dem ocratic conventions nominating candidates for the Presidency are so adroitly worded that to the kneenest investigation they afford no material d fference. The contents that follow area shame to our manhood at a na tion of civilized people. This sort or political lire nas so degraded us that the blind following of party has degen erated to a stupid following of men. Each leader has his body of retainers, and is considered valuable in proportion to the number he can control. This is called personal magnetism. It really means the struggle tor office, and the fascinating hope of plunder through a possession of the government. - . . Ihe prospect 01 success de pends upon the numberof votes, and as opinions are apt to of- tend, opinions are careinuy sup pressed, nacn party pieoges itself, for example, not to dis turb the business relations of the country. Now, as these business relations are based on the interference of the general government in the private en terprises of the citizens, the suc cessful party must hold itself to the condition wntcn it ends; and the result of a change, to one or the other, is merely the putting out of office one set to install anoiner. There is but one plane of de gradation lower than this, and that is the one that exists in some of the Central and South American governments. There the factions, made' up or per sonal following, appeal from the brute force of such voting to the brute force of arms. Fail ing to vote in a man because he is their man, the factionists seize their muskets and inau gurate what they are pleased to call a revolution, and go out to kill and get killed, we are edging closely on such s condi tion, and reauy it is about as sensible as the one to which we have come. President u rover Cleveland. in his sturdy self-reliance, in dependence, and clear-sighted statesmanship, recognizing this condition of the country, nas thrown himself and his political fortune into the arena with an appeal to reason that makes of his Message a startling platform of principle. The business re lations 01 ion couuir ars a much disturbed, and its dealers are as much stupefied and aston ished, as weretnemonev-cnang era of the Temple wben our. Saviour ordered them out. How brave this act or our President was. the more obser vant and tnoughful recognize. We all know that he is presi dent not because he is a Dem ocrat, but for that the solid South voted him in. Now, the South was and is solid not from any belief in or. love for the Democracy. It was driven into that condition by necessity. When Lee surrendered, and his brave followers laid down their arms and returned to the peace t..t ........I.- t.il lit,, if, ta- iui iiuisuik va villi ui ww w publican party went into the business of reconstruction In stead of appealing, as Lincoln sought to do before he was so crucllv murdered, to the gov ering element of the South found in its intelligence, it appoalel to its ignorance. This was a brutal assault not only on the political structure, but the so cial as welL An attempt was made to put the power of the state under the control of. the plantation negroes, supplement ed by carpet-baggers to instruct and bayonets to protect them in their newly-found power. The consequences of this state craft are matters of history. The white population of the South wan driven to union and and revolt, to its social "exis. tence. T'ey hid'; - but two courses open to them either to ubundon their country to the nogntva, and cease to exist, or , To roalize-thi :i'lition, let mo picture New i .rit City, for exam Die. sriven over to Its worst population, tin? i''jghs,! as they are called, aul this through a process that not only robbed the intelligent of , their ' votes, but gave the toughs th in) er of the covernmeut, realized throueh its bayonets. But we are assured that tne " - ...... negroes are not criminals; that thev are xitizens. posesteu ai the riehts of such, and it wa and is the duty of the govern ment to protect them.' ' ' J, Let us see. we nave at mis writing a biU pending in tne Congress of the United States, which has passed tnat , august body of the milhonaries call ed the Senate. This is "Blair's Educational Bill." This meas ure, which should be entitled Act to Aboiisn, ay aci 01 von- f ress, tne constitution 01 tne Inited States," proposes to take from the treasury of the central government enough money to deprive the States f their right to educate the masses. This proposal is based on the aster tion made by its author andlii Republican associates; sum as Edmunds, Evarts, and Hoar, that all ignorance ' is vicious, and that, to protect the govern ment, the people must be taught This was strong an argument in the shot-gun of the South as in the mouth of .. their dignified Senators. Such conditions made 'the South solid for the Democracy; and so long as manhood remains and this disgrace threatens it the South will be found solid. This left the Presidential con test at the North to turn on per sonal abuse, and there Presi dent Cleveland, had he been an adroit politician instead of a orave, conscientious iwwbquui, would have left it. Jle defeated his opponent on that issue, and as his late Secretary Manning left the business relations un touched, there was every pros pect of a successful return to power. Fortunately for his Sarty and our county he is of iff erent material, and, scorn- in t to hold office merely for the sake of office, he has thrust into the political field a great meas ure upon which to base an issue and supply a discussion. To comprehend cieariy an that is before us, we are. forced to remember that our govern ment some twenty-five years since passed under the control of a so-called political party that had no claim to such a title, because it is held together under property privileges and these privileges nave so shown themselves in our business rela tions that to disturb them is to Mr.iiitinnizA both nolitical and ' business conditions. They are so unnatural and unjust that, if left to themselves, they must inevitably break down the gov ernment and bankrupt the coun try. The tariff, for example, passed from one of a purely marine character to one of high protection at a time when the government was in a death- struggle, undor tne pretext 01 raising a heavy income on which to prosecute the war. The war came to a successful close, and, for twenty-three years after, the government has been kept on a war footing, until the ac cumulated treasure threatens capital and oppresses labor, and ail healthy enterprises . are naralvzed. it la naro to realize mat me . . ...... ... - government, with its horrible weight, ts in tne neiooi private a . - .

This is but one illustration of evils that have come to us through the de gradation of our goterument in nasslnir the political fabric crated bv the fathers to a com murcitl machine that enriches the few to the utter ruin of the many. - This Issue is on us.

Xew Orleans Judgment. 1 : . tfcava4 Stala.. , ' The New York . Tribune, of course, attempts to lug politics into the recent just . action 01 the people of New Orleans. They once overthrew,, an. iniquit ous city government, in ' which course they were right, but tne recent uprising had nothing to do with politics. ! Thirty or for ty years ago a New Orleans mob" uprose in benair of a ne gro slave and undertook: to avenge his cruel ..treatment. Not only this. ; They pursued and would have hunsr the owner of the unfortunate slave. That owner was a beautiful woman. ''immensely' wealthy, and the giver of sumptuous en tertainments. ' The story is one of the most thrilling in the his tory, of the city, so rich in ro mance. It was whispered that the lady in the case ill-treated certain of her slaveskept them Chained in a dungeon, and sub jected them to starvation. ' She was, however, a woman or great wealth and influence, and man aged to quiet these rumors. A nre occurred on ner estate, whether started by some of the slaves or not, is not recalled. When: citizens nocked . to the lace and besfen to tear down the burning building the awful evidence 1 of j the, maltreated slaves met their eyes. One of the poor creatures was chained and maggots were in bis wounds The fury of the mob was ; fear f ul. , They besieged the palace of the beautiful woman, who, with unparnvllnled boldness. ordered her coachman to drive to her door, dressed in her most brilliant costume and, with as much composure as if she were taking her usual evening drive, stepped inf .'and directed the coachman to whip up his horses. The maddened mob followed,1 but she distance them, bhe managed to make one of the Mr. Tn trio liarhnr and Mrnned to Paris. This historical inci- dent proves that a New Orleans mob could :rise even in slave days, in the interest of the slave and in the Interest of humanity. A Veritable Jumbo. Mr. V. R.

If Von Dream of Your Creditors It Means That You Aim in Di lit Lovers Should Never Dream of Beggar 8oMler'. ' Chloaga Hor.14. To dream in path both straght 1 1 and tair, Your work doth happiness de ' clare: But crooked ways denote much ill To those who have a headstrong will. Of course if you happen to dream about crooked paths you can get out of it on the ground that you are not possessed of a neadstrong will, and that it is as near as dreams ever come true. If the sign is right, it was the dream that did it; if the thing comes out as you had no reason to expect you can change it to one of the many exceptions that are required to prove tha rule that dreams are reliable. . There used to be an old wo man down m Illinois who had mplicit faith in anything she saw printed. If there were any question of the accuraey of a statement, and one could bring her a newspaper declaration on the subject, she was convinced, and never again had a doubt. Now it would be .highly improp er for the skeptical reader to ask what she would have done had she happened to find count er statements on any subject. Questions of that kind would knock the sentiment out of any old woman, or old theory either, for that matter. And if that ancient lady or any of her kin should be living let them be in forme i that dreams do come true. This cannot be denied, for a book has been printed set tine forth all sorts of drowns and what they, and all any one need do it he wants a war map of his future is to eat mince pies and doughnuts and go to bed. DREAMS O? LOVERS. Should he in the earlr watches ot the night find himself in the midnt of what the police retort- er calls a conflagration let him be admonished that To dream of burning doth imply A sudden danger ripe and nigh. ut ail escapes you tnen oeware, D or thougn rate tnreatens sne may spare. ; Tt will be noticed that Fate is a Derson in this case and not a glittering generality. And like many another person she has provided herself with an ample way or escape 11 tne uream uo not came true. In that case she may tell you she threatened all right enough, but on mature consideration concluded to spare you for future midnight lunches. Lovers snouid never aream 01 liocrcrnra. It nrotends disaster Ol some sort or another, and the man who finds himself in the art at hpcrinninD to dream about a beggar himself or any other and cannot waKe up, must go to see his love with au accident policy in his inside pocket after that. or rate is on nis tracK, and will not be switched off. But if you must dream of beg gars, please be persuaded, in time and give tneni sometning. Else you will never know peace. If vnii dream of soldiers it means that your lady love or your fellow, ir tne oreamcr uo one ot the fairer, weaker sex will liavA to nnit bis or her pres ent residence, by paternal order, on your ucluuiu. h jw. know he or she is comfortable thorn" An not let me implore you do not dream of soldiers. - 1L.1 . . . 10 aream mat you are sui ting hay indicates that you will have great influence in society cut quite a swath, as it were. And if you dream ot raiting tne hay together you are fated to stand at the head of assemblies. Now. what would be more nmnpr tnftn to dream 01 raKinz the hay after you have once rtmammlnf cuttW it? The ad ditional labor is trivial, and the difference in recompense is quite worth the trial. TO AVOID DISASTERS.

If under, then look out for troub- . a). a. les, and plenty or tnem, out 11 you are navigating all right, with thn nlarid clement be neath you, flatter yourself that you will live to make all or most of enemies your footstool. To dream you wade in mire and stubbie, . : Foretelleth surely tod an trouble, Vt noraovcranre will not fail O'er toil and trouble to prevail. 'Another chance to get out, you see, but there is one droara that admits of exception'. If you should so far forget your self as to dream of legacy, get t up in the early morning and go ' about collecting all your avail able assets, for what you have ' in the hands ot "another"; will ,, be wasted and dissipated with out doing you any sort of good. ' To dream about fighting at sin gle combat signifies lawsuits and marriages, the book says. " If you should get into the habit of dreaming, and in that pitable condition should find yourself dreaming of a man with a lighted lantern, try to kill him off or otherwise attract his at tention, for if he goes on with out interruption and puts it out it signfies trouble for you, and plenty of it. If you dream that you hear a hen cackle it is a pretty good sign, but you can' make it a heap better by catch ing the fowl, i That clinches the sign, as it were, and after that, fate can no more go back, on you than if you slept with the scissors under your piHow to' make your lover come back. ' si 0 married man should dream of, eating garlic. In the first place, garlic is not a pleasant thing for any man outside of Gaul to put upon his table; and in the second though that is a minor consideration he 1 will surely find out that his wife does not love him. And if you want to do the whole business , at one fell swoop, then dream of eating dinner just after having concluded the dream about gar- ic. ihe dream about eating will never be fulfilled till the , family ot which you are now so valuable a member shall have been divided and scattered to the four winds or the three winds or the two, if there should not happen to be enough per sons in the family. 1 Appropriations Made , by the Last lejrlslature.
