Is it Profitable?
A few weeks ago it seemed that a
struggle between the English nation
and the Russian was inevitable. All
Europe seemed to think so. Amer
ica thought so, even ..so much that
business men all over our land made
their calculations for this year upon
such consideration. Home of our
State papers came out and advised
the farmers to plant certain things,
feeling sure that the wcr would briug
those things ia great demand, 'sow

This is a question that is not easi
ly decided. Wili certain thing
be a benefit for the present, Tr Will
something else be a greater benefit
in the future? Prudence advises us
to pursue that course which will in
the long run be to our advantage,
though it may be through thorns and
thistles in the present. Bat men, un
able to deny themselves and obey
prudence, sacrifice certain happiness
of the future to pett y temporal whims.
Profit to men may be of many differ
ent kinds. It may conzc in the shape
of money by far the most desirable
to the average man or it may result
in mental happiness. At this dsy
every thing it seems has its price. Yes
everything i3 bought and sold.
Friendship, goodwill, self respect,
politics, suffrage, public opinion and
it seems ail can go for a. price. The
mugwumps had a price. They it
seems from the general turn cf affairs
left the g- o. p. in hope that when
the change came they would get of
fice. Whether thr-y a-jted their part
for this consideration or not, they
have been paid in such currency.
Why certainly the mugwumps r-.nst
be satisfied! Why, didn't they give
New York to the democrats? Who
would be President to-dsy if the mug
wumps had not sprung up? Etc., etc.

The Administration has gradually
improved since that heroic appoint
ment was made postmaster of New
York but even since then a republi
can has once in a while been the
lucky man, and for mugwumps to get
ofliCts seems as easy as for demo
crats and, we might add, a little eas
ier. Thi3 seems to be a wayward Ad
ministration. It wanders off from the
old democratic paths, then returns
with repentance and "that is an ex
ceptionable case." The mugwump is
but little less than the red hot Blaine
.-publican. Let him take a back seat.
