The debate in the House of Commons last night on Mr.

Heoly's motion to amend the Coercion bill, so as to clearly indicate wnat portions of the Island the measure was de signed to affect, leaves no doubt that the purpose of its authors is to administer it on the eclectic plan. They do not intend to tread on tho toes of any Orangeman, if tney i can avoid it. 'ine clause to wmuu proposed amendment had reference contains the words "proclaimed districts" and as Belfast and its neighborhood had not been proclaimed there seemed to be some ground for Mr. Healy's apprehension that "orinies" committed by the anti Catholic element of that community might escape the provisions of the bill. Mr.

Balfour's reply was to have been ex pected. He declared that the Government intended to apply the clause to all parts of Ireland where the prevalence of crime justified the application. Mr. tabouohere, whose astuteness is matched by his candor, must have distressed Mr. Balfour when he pointed out that the aim of the bill was Dot so much the prevention of crime as the crushing out of the Nationalists and that the administration of the law was so bound up with the Orange faction that it could not be impartial.

This was kicking off the lid and revealing the contents of the pot with a vengeance. The Grand Old Man did not seem to relish Mr. Labou chere's abrupt and impulsive treatment of the question, so he mildly suggested that the words proclaimed districts should be permitted to remain and that tho districts be defined under different clauses of bill. The force of the suggestion could not have very powerfully impressed tho friends of the amendment inasmuch as the specifio designation was designed to prevent the discrimination which it was the object of the Government to make, and no matter at what stage of the debate or in what part of the bill the amendment was introduced the opposition to it would be just as groat as it is now. But Mr.

Healy, who appears to be a meek and submissive man where the "Sir Oracle" of Liberalism is concerned, quietly swallowed the emollient of his distinguished friend, and sat down with an air of childlike confidence in his superior wisdom. Not so Lord Randolph Churchill, however. He does not like the Grand Old Man's sug gestions in general and he did not like this one hi particular. It implied the author's superiority to the weaknesses of both sides. It smacked of the condescension of one who felt himself so free from error that he could afford to re strain the impetuosity of his friends and make use of it as a proof of his tolerant spirit toward his opponents.

It seemed to Lord Randolph to partake of the character of guff." He accordingly reminded tho fine old statesman that he had vitiated his claim to disinterestedness by previously making himself a party to the insinuation that the government had intended to apply the clause only to certain parts of Ireland and leave Belfast out. His lordBhip assorted that thero had been not in Belfast, but the law had not been arrested. No anal ogy existed between such a state of affairs and the moonlighting" in Kerry, where not a Bingle person had been made amenable to justice." At this point his lordship got his oratorical legs tangled in the underbrush of his imagination and received a bad fall. Mr. Healy took advantage of the mishap to beleaguer him with a few statistics.

Ho recalled to his mind the fact that while over 300 persons had been killed or wounded during the Belfast season of un pleasantness only a few of the rioters had been punished, and enlightened his lordship bv the statement that there had been over twenty convictions for Kerry In the subsequent proceedings Lord Randolph did not seem to take as much interest as he had taken prior to Mr. Healy's correction of his little inaccuracy as to the convictions in Kerry, and there was no response from him when Mr. Gladstone explained that ho had put the screws to Ireland five years ago in tho shape of a bill directed against actual crime, while tho bill. under discussion waB not. There wore loud cries of Oh Oh at this, during which Smith, the newspaper man and First Lord of the Treasury, moved to enforce the cloture rule, and the great Tory gag shut up the mouth of tho full fountain of talk and closed the debate.

The late brilliant and popular William Wirt once said of himself: "I have long been convinced that there is not enough iron in my constitution for a public character I mean, torn politician aiminc at clory." The re i mark suggests a possible explanation of tho difference between the requirements of the politician of tho davs of William Wirt and A tho requirements of tho politician of to day The former teems to havo needed plenty of iron the latter only requires plenty of gall The change is further accounted for by the faot that tho politician then aimed at glory, whero as now he aims at well, it doesn't much mat' ter what, so long as he gets it. Hon. David Littler, the Republican mom ber of the Pacific Railroad Investigating Commission, has criven utterance to some senti ments highly complimentary to tho courage patriotism and independence of President Cleveland. Mr. Littler's candid appreciation appears to have thrown ex Postmaster Gen oral Frank Hatton, of the Chicago Mail, into convulsions, and when Hatton gets one of his fits the balance of the Iliinois Republicans pull themselves together in order to enjoy it At the present timo there is no State in the Union which is having moro fun than Illinois Tho Providence Journal has a way of say ing things to discourage tho New York Tri bune.

Here is a little cold spray which it recently squirted at that The memory of tho lata John C. Calhoun completely fails to materialize as a political issuo. The esteemed Tribune's efforts to convert the Calhoun commemoration into political capital have been marked by no little zeal and enthusiasm. Tho Providence Journal sometimes shows great lack of feeling. Mr.

Gould has selected Colorado as a field for some new and dashing railroad exploits and the Pueblos are going on about it as though it were already the morning of tho Fourth of July. Senator Hearst, of California, has been traveling round a good deal sinco the adjournment of Congress and has heard and seen some things calculated to raise the hair on the back of the Sun's office cat. Ho gave a reporter for the St. Louis Jiepublican an interesting account of his impressions and in answer to the question, "Will Cleveland bo elected again said Not a doubt about it Ho will swoep tho country. Why, man, ho will carry Massachusetts.

I havo Just come from thore and tho pooplo are red hot for him. It would surpriso you. I met lots of men who novor voted a Domocralic ticket in their lives, who are Just anxious to got a chance to voto for Clovoland. "Then the reporter wanted to know about the party prospects on tho Pacific coast next year, and tho Senator told him thnt California would be Bure for the ticket with Cleveland's name at the head and that Mr. Vilas was imparting a few finishing tonchos to Oregon, preparatory to wheeling her into the Democratic line.

Mr. Hearst appears to be a very interesting man. Contemporary Humor. "A man's rank in Burinak is known by the number of umbrellas he is allowed to carry."

Captain T. E. Solfridge, who was relieved by Rear Admiral Chandler from command of tho United States ship, Omaha In consequence of the alleged careless handling ot a shell which he fired near Magazakl, Japan, aud whioh killed four Japanese and wounded seven more, and who was ordered by the Admiral to Immediately proceed to Washington and report to the department, has boen In this city for the last few days. The acoldent and suspension of Captain Selfrldge has attracted a good deal of attention In naval circles, particularly because it la known that the two officers hove not been on friendly terms for some time. It Id stated that when the report of the accident reaohed the admiral he ordered Captain 8Uf ridge to turn over his vessel to his senior oillcar to take passage In her to Yoka hamaandto proceed Immediately to Washington and report to the Department In person.

He neither asked tho captain for an explanation nor made, it is said, any inquiry, but summarily removed him. This, naval officials say is a violation of naval regulations, as they distinctly provide that in case of an accident a Board of Ipjoy shall be formed to inquire Into the olrcumataucos on the spot Admiral Chandler Is alleged to havo said In explanation for not having dono this, that there were not ranking officers enough oc the station to sit on such a board. But the naval regulations pormit of juniors forming the Board in the absence of ranking officers, the Board having only the power to And facts and not conclusions and it Is also prohibited from passing sentence. Captain Selfrldge has applied to Seoretary Whitney to be reinstated. Colonel Remey, the Judge Advocate General of the Navy, Is making up tho report on tho case, and until Seoretary Whltnoy has offlolally passed on it, Captain Helfrldgo will say nothing.

Navel discipline will prevent him from talking. Admiral Chandlor has sent a report of the affair to tho department, whioh is said to bo one of tho most extraordinary ever drawn up by a commanding officer under similar circumstances. In It he accuses Captain Selfrldge of murder; ac ouses him furtbur of "culpable, criminal and willful negligence," and says that If the affair had hupponod in the jurisdiction of tho United States Captaiu Selfrldge would have been tried for manslaughter. If not on a more serious charge. If Sec retary Whitney rofusos to reinstate Captain Selfrldge the latter will demand a court of inquiry, which will be sent out from hero to sit in Japan to take tostimony.

510, F. and A. was held at Its rooms, cornor Kent and Myrtle avenues, last evening, There was a good attendance of members, and as Mr. Bernard Peters had boen Invited to. deliver an address before the momborsotthe lodge the routine business was soon ovor and Senior Warden W.

II. Sutton called the membor3 to order and In a few words Introduced Mr. Peters, who, ho said, had kindly consented to speak. Mr. Peters said he had received a letter from Senior Warden Sutton inviting him to address the lodco olther on tho night of tho 2nd or Dili of May.

tlo chose the 2nd, but soinohow he was improssed with the idea tliat It was next Monday that he was to speak, and only a day or two bko discovered his error. He did not offer this as an anolotrv. but said that If It naa been otnor wlsn he would havo Drenared a special ad dross for the occasion. But I havo a subject, said he, and it Is ono which has impressed me not a little, and it la the peculiar blessings thnt country enjoys In its great men. The poople of inouarcmes and despotic countries generally wnrahln thoir rulers, their klliKS and thoso of noble birth, aud those who by tho law of inheritance are entitled to tne crown.

as free ueoplo we havo no interest in such. Here we aro all equal, every man Is his own master and is honored and esteomed In Dronorllon to tho purity of his heart aud tno activity of his mind. It was only olevon years ago that we celebrated our one hundredth anniversary ns a nallon. A century lu tho history of a nation marks only the first mile stone in Us career. As I look over tho history of the past I soo many men whose greatness and wisdom have blessed this fair In our early days we had such names as thoso of WashiuElou.

Hamilton, the Adamses. Jefforson, Madhrnn and Monroe. A little later we had suoh inoa as Benton, Cass, Clay, Webster, and still Inter Lincoln, Grant, Seward, Sumner aud others. But umoug these there are three who stand head and shouldors above their roi lowa They nro Washington, Lincoln and Grant Iu the llttloover 100 years that have gono by we have had hut four wars, 'i'ruo. we havo had skirmishes with the Indians and other minor troubles, but we havo only had four real wars.

Tho first was that of tho Revolution. In which wo gained our imlnnnmlnncf). the second was tho War of 1812, whereby wo showod tho world that we could Mulnmin ouraelvnj affainst olher nations: third wn hud tho war with Mexico, a conflict forced nnnn tho tm.inln hv tnose In newer, simply to caln territory in which to oxtend tho institution of slavery. Tho last was tho greatest and saddost of all wars, a civil war. a nation nt issue with Itself, lu the lirst Washinaton was tho presiding genius.

At Valley Forge nnd at Newburgh ho showod himself a master of unsurpassed ability, and his entire lifo is oue of unflinching devotion. Calm lu defeat, sober in victory, umguanhuous at all times, Irro niatihle when aroused, he cave us our Independ ence and the free institutions wo now enjoy. It has been beautifully sold, Providonco left him childless that his country might call him But VVashlngton's Kroatnesa aud wisdom wore particularly manifested in what lie did at the close of the war, when the thirteen States wero callod upon to adopt and ratify our Constitution. Bitter Jealousy existed among the States, both with regard to one another and aa to the proposod Gonoral Government The desire of many loading mon was to let oach Stato remain indopoudout, and havo no national authority. Congress bad no monoy and i nnld not levy taxes.

Beck's Sue cesior What He Thinks of President Cleveland's Administration Local Legislation at Albauy Two Serious Explosions In Which Many Persons Were Injured. L0UI8VIM.B, May 8. The Hon. John G. Carlisle arrlred here yesterday from his homo in Covington.

He comes to attend tho Stato Democratic Convention, of which, it is generally undsrstood, he will be chairman, He is accompanied by Mrs. Carlisle. A Cmirier Jotirnal reporter askod Mr. Carlisle ir he was a candidate to succeed Mr. Beck in the United States Senate.

My relations, or rather my apparent relations," said the Speaker, to the coatest for that position havo not beeu satisfactory to me for some time, and have intended to make a public statement upon the subject, hut no proper occasion has been presented, and, consequently, I have said nothing, except to a few personal frlouda. Two or three months ago I said, in substanoe, that although not a candidate for tho office, I would accept It II elect ed by the Legislature, and would aorve to the beat of my ability. This was regarded in some quarters as an announcement of my candidacy, while In others it waa not so regarded. It was certainly not intended by me to convey the improslon that I was then or would, under any circumstances, become a candidate, and 1 am glad of this opportunity to correct that Impression wherever It may exist I have no desire to go to the Senate and do not want my name considered in connection with the position. In fact, I do not Know that it has been thought of to any considerable extent In making nominations lor tho Legislature or otherwise, but letters received by mo from various parts of the State indicate that thore are some who regard me ns one ot the aspirants for the place.

If I am to remain la public life at all a seat in tho House of Representatives is entirely satisfactory to me, and I can serve the poople there at least as well as la the Senate." What do you think of tho prospect for a reduc tion of the tariff by the next Cougreas?" can only give you my opinion, so far as tho House Is concerned," roplied Mr. Carlisle. "Tho Senate, being a Republican body, no one can eay with acouracy what it Is likely to do. I beliovo the next House will unquestionably pass a bill to reduce very materially tho customs duties. I do not, however, expoot to bee the passage of such a bill as the Eevonuo Iteform Demoorota would like to have." Being asked for his opinion of the present Admin istration, Mr.

Carlisle said: "President Cleveland has given to the country a safe, strong, clean aud healthy administration. The complaints that he has not turned out the Republican offlce holders as rapidly as he should are exaggerated. Ho has acted as he honestly believed for the best interests of the country and his party you will find upon investigation that he la very strong with the people. He has made us a good President I think ho Is the most In. dustrlous man I ever saw.

He cortaiuly works too hard, but it all comes from an houost desire to make his Administration satisfactory to himself and the people. Mr. Cloveland desires nothing more than the approval of his own conscience and tho Just commendation of tho country. These he oonuot fall to havo." "Is thero not some just cause of complaint con cerning his somewhat supercilious treatment of men who hold offlce under him?" Rightly understood, thero Is not Mr. Cleveland, you must remember, held tho office of Sneriff in Erie County, N.

and after that he was Mayor of Buffalo. In both of those positions he was brought into direct contact with his subordtnatos, who required, no doubt, careful attention, and In this way he acquired tno habit of personal supervision of ap pointees. That habit doubtless sticks to him In some degree. It would be strange if It did not You seo, he camo very rapidly from the Mayoralty, through the Governorship, into the Presidency. No man's etevatloa was over moro rapid.

In Mr. Cleveland's case some little time must be allowed for him to accustom himself to his new surroundings. There Is another thing I want to say about Sir. Cleveland. With him a candidate for re election, Now England will bo doubtful.

You would be as tonished to And the number of busiuoss men In the Republican party In Massachusetts and all New Eugland who are for Mr. Clovelaud. When I was in Boston" a short timo ago I was amazed to learu that the Republican membors of several prominent club3 wero practically solid for Mr. Cleveland. There Is another good thing, too, about those Mugwumps as we call them.

They are nearly all tariff reformers. If they aro properly oultivatod thoy will not bo long getting into tho Democratic party, whero they will bo Mugwumps no longer, but just as good Democrats as the rost of us."

Tho pooplo on shore formed a volunteer crew and went out to rescuo the remainder of thoso aboard. After getting alongsldo a line was connected with tho stoamer, but was burned away. Tho current carried the rescuing party away. Thoso on shore, seeing tho fate of tho second boat, sent out a third ono, which rescued the captain and steward.

The wheelsman, George Olson, and First Engineer Rogers refused to enter for fear of swamping it Aftor the small boat reached the pier safely the last effort to roach the bargo was mado, but before the boat made one half the distance flames compelled the mon on the stoamor to Jump overboard. Engineer Rogers was tho first to mako tho loop, and after a hard struggle against the current and undertow ho reachod the benoh exhausted. George Olson was evidently stunned, as ho appoarod unable to make any headway toward tho shore.

i Bribery Demonstrated and Virtually G'onfeanet). The examination of the witnesses, Kevins, Cooper and Pope, occurred at tho session of the Assembly Committee, on Monday. Novins simply swore that he had looked for his bank books and couldn't find them, and did not know now whero they were. He did not tell, and could not be made tell, whether or when, or under what circumstances, he had given them to some of his accomplices, bo they could put them out of his sight and knowledgo until tho present storm blew over. Cooper produced a bank book which showod Borne payments made by him on and around May 5, 1884, but not the names of the persons.

Finally, ho was obliged to admit that on tho very day tho Electric Light franchiso was granted' by the Aldermen he had given Nevins about tho same amount of money that at pretty much tho same time Pope had given him on behalf of the other parlies in tho pool. This confirms Pope's testimony. Pope had eworn that it was agreed both sets of interests should give Nevins tho sumo sum at the Bame time. Nevins' deposit certificates in banks prove that he got those sums at that time. Pope's testiinouy and accounts prove that he paid his division.

Cooper's accounts prove that he paid his. The men part company where the object for which the payments wore made begins to be looked at. Pope testifies that Nevins suid the money was needed to bring over a few Aldermen who stood out. They did stand out until Nevins got tho money. Then they wheeled into lino as Pope Bwears Nevins said they would.

That fact is a corroborative one for Pope's testimony. It makes the evidence against Nevins stronger than that from which Moloney, Keenan, Detnpsey and Sol Sayleu have rim nway to keep from going to jail; stronger than that by which Jnehne, McQuado and O'Neil have beeu put in prison. Tho effort of Nevins and Cooper was then directed to trying to get up some explanation which would account for Nevins' receipt of tho monoy at that tune. Nevins had sworn that a loan by him to Pope would account iu part for the money he got from Pope, but Pope's accounts showed that the loan was but $700, while tho corruption payment was and that that loan had been paid by Pope with interest. Forced out of that subterfuge aud beaten out of his refuge of pretended idiocy, which was made up of the words, I have no recollection," "I can't remember," Nevins finally blurted out: I have no dosiro to make any explanation nhout any chocks.

I Bimply say, as I eaid before, that they were usod for no corruin purpose by iim, ami I want you Mr. Pardons atul tills cuinnittoo dis tinctly to understand thut have no explanation to make. Barring the empty disclaimer which he would bo sure to make, whether guilty or innocent, Nevins will be regarded by ten men out of overy twelvo in the world as having virtually coufesstd to aud confirmed tlte suspicions against him by that bullying answer. Cooper then sought, to repair tho breach which the truculent stupidity of Nevins had made in the defenses of tho entire gang. He admitted that ho had paid tho money the day the franchiso had been voted by a corrupt Board, which had refused to vote it unless that money was paid down but he suddenly remembered that 8H.000 of it was used bv him to purchase.

interest iu something which ho called snapper." He said ho referred to an invention to light gns by electricity without matches and that 310 of the sum were for Nevins' expenses to Boston on a trip ho ad made there for the company. The reader will naturally say that of course Cooper brought iu the papers which showed Nevins' or his interest in this invention and Nevins' receipt or bill of sale to Cooper. No, reader, Cooper brought in not scrap of paper. Ho Bimply said there svaB such a transaction; he exhibited no proofs. Ho had been on the stand several times before to be questioned on that very subject, but ho had never sworn the Bnappor" into tho case until those who had listened had heard the creaking of the jail doors that swing open for bribe givers end vote buyers.

Then the snapper" was brought in as if it were an afterthought. Tho general business which Nevins Co. do with ono another is transacted with records of receipts, bills of sale aud tbo like, such as all other sauo men exchange and preserve. Tho business which they transact to offset overpowering presumptions of bribery appears to bo done only in their minds and not until they get on the witness stand. There is no difference of opinion among Bane and honest men about the transactions, about tho evidence which defines the trans actions or about tho attempted evidence to explain thorn away.

Tho testimony makes a far stronger caso than that on which any upright and intelligent jury in any free and pure court have sent any pliers of bribery or nny who havo engaged to do such work to jail in America or in England in the Nineteenth Century. The case is far stronger than any on which the boodlcrs over the river have been convicted or from which any of tho other boodlers havo run away to escape trial. That is ono fact of shame. Another fact of greater shame is that probably nothing will be officially dono in thiB county or city to punish the guilty or to retire them from the official positions in which they have committed these crimes, and their occupancy of which supplies the reason why they wero selected and enabled to commit them. Not even tho initiative of punishment or of prevention will be any whore officially taken in the City of Brooklyn or in tho County of Kings.

Tho people who note the first fact might as well noto the second, too, and see if they have now or can find in the future nny remedy for the situation by their own action. Yncut Events. Tho particulars are given to day of the launch of the yacht Shamrock, of which Mr. J. Rogers Maxwell is tho owner.

It is too bad that the Shamrock cannot raco with the Thistle, but sho is not big enough, being only of tho second class. Her waist is so narrow that sho cannot put on all tho airs of a coquette of celerity. Dreadful as it may seem, she, speaking in figuro, is all feet, and her depth is not so great as to steady her in tho hour of trial. Most of her ballast is on the outsido, but for all that she is so clipper and pretty that the most cynical clubman will open to her his purse, if not his heart. She is not, however, to be without a rival.

Mr. Iselin's new steel sloop, the Titania, will be also launched in a few days aud siio will bo nearly of tho same size as the Shamrock, only three feet longer ou the load water lino. This measurement in the Shamrock is GO feot 9 inches. The Shamrock's extreme beam is 20 feet and her draft 7 feet 6 inches. Tho contest between tho Shamrock and the Titania will be as interesting to Brooklynites as that between the Thistle and Commodore Paine's first class defender of the America Cup will be to tho whole world.

Tho Shamrock is built on tho centerboard principle with a drop of nine feet below tho depth of keel, which is itself only half of a cutter's draught. Touching cutters, it is gratifying to note that Lieut filial it Ifx iin, tho owner of the Galatea, is authority for the conjecture that the Thistle is au aquatic hybrid. That is, this foreign ventm'u in sloop building combines the advantages of both cutter and centerboard designs. There can only bo reasonable speculation upon the reality of so gignol a capitulation by English conservatism, BO flattering to American oiiH v.titil the Thistle is in American waters. It not timely to consider whether proof of tho Thistle being ft hybrid would warrant tho American Oom Hlunicinal Koa Partisanship.

It is boyond question that the notion of local non partisanship was at first regarded with some prejudice i an ingenious device to keep a minority ar in power. In a town whero tho Dernoo ats had on overwhelming majority it wai easy for the Republicans to say in hJ most cordial fashion, Come now, let U3 all ba independent. What have the principles of Thomas Jefferson or the memories of Abraham Lincoln to do with the cleaning of the streets or tho management of the water works 7" Of course, on the spur of the moment, it might bo hard to toll what, aud when no satisfactory answer waB forthcoming the Republicans would go on in a plausible and insinuating way: Well, then, unite with us in electing this worthy citizen who will shut his eyeB to party differences and will administer tho municipal government upon strictly business rules." The worthy citizen, as might have been expected, turned out to be a Republican. It is not necessary to amplify tho thought, though our esteemed townsman, Mr. Seth Low, could doliver an interesting lecture on the subject.

But in course of time it naturally enough happened that the other side, beautiful and attractive as tho non partisan conception was, found it rather fatiguing. Democrats, however independent, gradually grew tired of turning a cold shoulder to the principles of Thomas Jefferson for tho sake of the streets and tho water works, with tho uniform result of vitalizing tho memories of Abraham Lincoln. It must be admitted that this weariness Wits neither illogical nor unreasonable. Ono purpose of the Citizens' League which had reform served up to it with other things at the Academy dinner table last evening was to counteract this tendency. It is fraukly composed of members of either party.

It has no intention of giving Republicans a monopoly of the official spoils of independence. It is quite willing to elect Democrats to city offices on its own politically colorless platform though it must be confessed that its efforts in that direction have not as yet been brilliantly successful. But of the impartiality of the League thore can bo no doubt. Among tho Republican guests yesterday were some who had openly done what they could to cloleat Republican candidates and not always municipal candidates by any means. So there were present Democrats who had manfully opposed Democratic candidates.

Let tho judicial mindedness of tho League be taken for granted. It can hardly fail, then, to see how its theory tho theory that parties Bhoukl be permanently abolished in city canvasseswas contradicted at its own dinner. Probably none of tho speakers was listened to with livelier iuterest than Mayor O'Brion, of Boston. Ho gave an account of the government, of tho Now England Capital under his admiristration ono of tho most expensive governments in the country, but a good one." The results were satisfactory because "oil the money was spont for tho purpose it was paid in for." If this is not the whole 6ecret of municipal efficiency it is a large part of it. For example, Boston is taxed 500,000 a year to clean tho streets, but that sum is used for cleaning them.

The school taxos are $2,000,000, but the schools get the full benefit of them. Mayor O'Brien said that neither in teaching tho children nor in sweeping the thoroughfares nor in anything else are eithor the funds or tho offices distributed ou a partisan basis. Of his iqjpointuienls at least half wore of Republicans. Now what was the genesis of this Boston Mayor Was his election the fruit of tho abolishment of parties By no means. He is a sturdy, outspeaking Democrat.

Ho regrets that Massachusetts is Republican and rejoices that the Democrats are making gains. If a Presidential canvass were going on ho would support the Democratic candidate and would not bo afraid to say so promptly. He would not with mistaken artfulness try to conceal the fact, or omit to define his position, one way or another, until it was too late to do any good or any harm. Mr. O'Brien was elected by the Boston Democrats.

As ho himself explains the Republicans were "in a hopeless minority and were beaten badly, although they ran a kind of Labor Reform side show," importing Henry George as the showman. Fortunately for Dr. McGlynn ho had not yet joined that motley procession. Now hero, in tho person aud office of Mayor O'Brien, is a demonstration of the possibility, through the election of a party candidate, of accomplishing all that is good in tho Citizens' League scheme a demonstration worth roams of resolutions and years of eloquent orations of the League. Again, a letter wan received from Mayor Hewitt and it was read this time.

Mr. Hewitt put his fingers precisely on the solution of tho municipal problem. Lot tho man at the head of affairs do his duty and let the citizens do theirs by putting there a man who is determined upon doing his. Moreover, that duty is very Bimple enforce tho law." The Mayor is not a legisla or, he is not a tinker. He is an executive officer, and he is bound to soo that statutes and ordinances aro executed, no matter what his private opinion of thorn may be.

Evidently Mr. Howitt thinks there is too much legislating, too much tinkering. Although he does not say so it may fairly bo inferred, also, from his remarks that people ore inclined to dissipato thoir energies in too much resolving, too much talking. What is needed is not a constant reconstruction of tho municipal system, but its efficient administration. Without this no machine is worth nnv thine.

With it almost ony machine will servo tho purpose. Now, what, in turn, is tho genesis of Mayor Hewitt Is ho an outgrowth of the abolish ment of parties Does he believe in that On the contrary, ho is a consistent Democrat elected by the dominant Democratic party in New York, against the opposition of tho Re rmbhean and tho Labor party. Hero is i demonstration the second for tho Citizens1 League. The Eagle cannot ogree with the members of the League, excellent and public spirited persons all of thorn, that the permanent ignoring of parties in city polities is either practicable or desirable. Political organization runs from tho top to tho bottom, from tho Assembly, ward or election district to tho Stato Capitol and to the White Houso at Washington.

Parties aro necessary to the country and this method of formation and action is necessary to parties. Thus constituted they are bettor equipped to manage all public affairs from top to bottom than a spontaneous and impermanent organization can be TJp.ually, they do manage them all, and, very probably they will continue to do so as a rule. Tho wise policy for independent citizens then is to act upon parties aud constrain them both to a high standard, rather than to act against them destructively in a futilo effort to get rid of them. The familiar phrases about the principles of Jefferson and tho streets, the memory of Lincoln and tho waterworks, are specious rather than sound. It is true those statesmen did not address themselves to these local business questions any more than they did to certain State and national matters now coming up.

But so for as thoir doctrine and ex nmplo point tho way to the discharge of public duty and quicken the sense of official responsibility, tho stimulant is valuable all along tho lino. It is quite possible for tho Citizens' League to do good work and yet let both tho Democratic and Republican parties live, by educating all the people, Democrats and Republicans, in public affairs. Now and then it may do something moro. When tho conduct of one parly, though a majority, becomes scandalous, it may be wholesomely disciplined by turning the administration over to tho other party, though a minority. Here the League way render valuable aid, but this function is occasional.

Should the laboring organizations bo looking for a caudidtito for the Presidency tho calls their attention to three gentlemen who are "friends of labor and dofendors of American workingmen." They aro Mr. Randall, Governor Hill and Mr. William Toll Colo man. Good men and true aro theao, and yet it iB but just to add to tho list tho namo of Grover Cleveland. Thore does not exist on the face of tho planet to day a better friend of the laborer.

Ho deeply sympathizes with tho chorts ol overy honest, industrious man who is itKio niiiidjtipji. More The Indignation TOcetlna To nlcht. Thero will be a meeting to night at the Academy of those opposed to the passage of the measure called the Ives Pool bill, from the name of the man who introduced it into the Assembly. The meeting will be held under the auspices of citizens who havo signed tho call for it, and the signatures are headed by the name of Daniel D. Whitney, Mayor of Brooklyn.

Advertisements declare that the assemblage will be addressed by such citizens as T. DeWitt Talmage, Alexander S. Bacon, Theodore L. Cuylor and Frederick W. Hinrichs, of Brooklyn, and George E.

Reed, of Now Haven. All but two of these citizens are clergymen. The two not olergymen are liwyers. Ono of the lawyers (Mr. Bacon) is also an Assemblyman.

The Eagle, however, assumes that to night thoy will appear ond should bo regarded only in their capacity as citizens. Whatever they think or maintain to the contrary, it is foct that as clergymen thoy will and should have less weight than as citizenB in discussing a secular subject and one of legislation. As to tho ottorneys who will speak, the public "regards them in their professional capacity as men who square their attitude to disputed propositions by retainers. It ib, therefore, neither as clergymen nor as attorneys that these gentlemen should be considered to night, or should consider themselves, but as citizens. As citizens, the civio or political subject of pool selling is ono which interests them and upon which they have a perfect right to speak.

Thoy will make more impression on tho Legislature and the Legislature is just what they want to influence in their capacity as citizens than in any other capacity. If they antagonize pool selling on the ground that as ministers they regard it to be wrong, the sharp antagonists against them will reply that that is either a church question, and the majority of men in this State do not go to church, or that it is a moral question, whereas tho pool selling matter is one of public policy toward a sporting subject. If the arguments to night be based on a religious view of the case, they will be lost on this Legislature. The singing of Psalms to a dead horse would be as useless as the plying of a religious argument on this Legislature Senator Griswold is a truly good man, for instance, and a reputedly religious one, but neither his goodness nor his religion was sufficiont to move him to initiate investigation into the abominations laid bare in this community. In truth, the opposition of ministers, as ministers, to pool selling is both expected and discounted by the public and by politicians.

Ministers are expected to be against pool selling or any recognition of it as a fact or policy the same as Prohibitionists aro ex pected to bo against liquor selling or against any measures to restrict its scope or lessen its evil incidents or effects. The absolute stand of clergymen on this subject is not one which can influence legislation at all. Wherefore, the speakers would do well, if possible, to take the view of the ordinary conservative man on the subject in hand. That viow is to tho effect that by legislation men are not and cannot be made virtuous, and that it is the duty of statesmen nnd moralists to surround evils that certainly prevail, owing to the constitution of human nature itself, with as many safeguards and restrictions as can bo effectively enforced. Pool soiling is forbidden by law now.

It nevertheless prevailed, in spito of law and through tho weakness, partiality or corrup tion of tho agents of law, every fair and clement day last year. The proposed bill recognizes tho tendency of man as a betting creature, nnd permits that tendency to go into operation on race tracks thirty days in each year. Which is bettor, thirty days of per mitted and restricted betting or a year of forbidden but unrestricted betting Lot the speakors look this question in the face tonight and meet it as laymen, not as ministers. jVIr. Grundy's Mistalte.

Ex Judge Hilton haB surprised his enemios and justified the good opinion of his friends On the day after tho sale of the two great paintings in the Stewart collection Rosa Bonheur's Horse Fair" and Meissonier's "Friodland, 1807" the tonguo of gossip wagged very freely. It was well understood that tho "Horso Fair" had beeu purchased by a wealthy citizen with tho intention of present ing it to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Two days after the sale tho morning papers con firmed the understanding by the announce incut that Mr. Avery had bought the picture in for Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt, aud a letter from the latter was published formally ten dering tho famous canvas to the managers of the museum.

Mrs. Grundy's occasion was furnished by tho contrast between Mr. Vandorbilt'r, action and tho disposal which tho purchaser of "Friedland, 1807" was reported to have made of that masterpiece. Thero was no apparent pround to hone that cx Judge Hilton had been governed by tho same high civic motive, for the iufalliblo Metropolitan press positive ly declared that tho painting was intended to adorn tho walls of his son's private residence. Thereupon tho old lady and her associate magpies fell into a train of moralizing.

They applauded Vander bilt and plucked and flayed Hilton. In the ono they recognized tho qualities of a patron of art and a munificent public bene factor. In tho other they discovered traces of the sordid and selfish spirit which Mrs. Grundy had imputed to tho man to whoso friendship Judge Hilton owed his wealth. One had vindicated his right to the possession of millions by evincing a disposition to employ them for the instruction and gratification of his fellow men.

Tho other showed his unworthiness to inherit riches by neglecting ono of the greatest opportunities of his life to recognize his patron's obligations to the city in which thoso riches had boon acquired. But Mrs. Grundy was sadly wrong and the magpies had followed a blind load. To day the following communication is mado public New York, April 16, 1887. Mr.

John Taylor Johntton, President Metropolitan Museum of Art Mt Deak Sir I take much pleasure iu placing at your disposition as gifts to tho Metropolitan Mu soum of Art two pictures "Friedland, 1807," by Melssonior, and "Tho Dofenso of Champlgny," by Dotalllo. ThoflrBt of those belongod to in collection of my friond, tho lato A. T. Stewart, and was purchased by mo at tho salo of that colloction with tho intention of giving it to your institution in his memory, to the oud that It might permanently bolong to and bo enjoyed by tho public. 'Tho Dofonso of Champlgny," regarded by De talllo as his masterpiece, I hope you will agree with mo in thinking worthy to bo a companion to "1807." Vory truly youra, IIeSby Hilton.

In a letter expressive of his appreciation of so noble a contribution tho president of the museum thanks the giver and accepts the gift. By this accession the gallery is able to boast of containing the masterpieces of tho two most eelebratod of modorn painters. Those with tho Seney and Wolfo collections added make it tho richest repository of art on the American Continont. More grateful even than tho pride of citizenship which such acts attest is tho proof thoy offord of the rapid advance of our people toward tbo highest plono of civilization. The lovo of art is the supremo assurance of national refinement.

The career of a civilized people has three stages of development. First, tho political stage, in which its institutions of government aro firmly established. Second, the commercial stage, in which its energies aro devoted to tho creation of material wealth. Third, the ajstlietic stage in which tho uses of money attain their noblest and most beneficent ond. We have passed through the first and second stages, and aro grandly entering on tho third.

The Philadelphia Times makes some acuto and judicious observations on the subject of Sunday newspapers. They are a great institution, and so far as the experience of the Sunday Eagle is concerned they aro rapidly becoming greater. The demand increases at a constant ratio. People soom to havo moro timo now to road a good Sunday paper than thoy over had boforo. But it must bo indubitably good.
