Grant in 1873 had not peett succeeded, as bad been axpeeted, by a change of persons or cliange of the eharacter of per- sons stipposed to be responsible for these abuses, On the contrary, all those persons were granted new leases of power und place. Other und greater abuses followed; we need not “name them, beers they are tunfort- unately too well remembered hy the coun try. ‘There was a unusual demand for ad- iifnistrative reform, A Tew months before the date of the Convyentlon there wus an oexpustre of wholesale fraud ail corruption fn two branches of the public service, ‘Tho New York Custom! louse was proven to be Iiteraliy a den of thieves, and merchants refusing to be plu frans- vel thelr business to Philadelphia. ‘Choe revelntions In the internal-revenna service werd even more disastrous, and the country was startled by the magnitude and aniversall- ty of the whisky frauds, and the elose oMlelal relations of the guilty with the higher sery- ive of the Govermuent, AM these furnished the opposition with the muttertal for demand ing a general-reform in the adininistrative departinents of the Government. Tho fact tat the Republican party throughout the country had taken such .strong ground against n Untrd term, and the further fact that Gen. Grant had personally mmounced that he was nut a canlidate for redleetion, did not satisfy the public that a thorough in the personal composition of the Go ment was not needed. is At this juncture the rivals and opponents of Mr Blaine within the Remublican party, and withlaa brief thie luumediately preectl- Ing the notnlnation, deluged the country with an array of charges intended to destroy hls character, both as a candidate and as aman, In tho estituntion .ef the country. An ayne Iunche of documents, represented to bo evi denee of these charges, was made public on the very eve of the Convention. It was a inatter of doubtful expediency whether the Republica party contd afford to engage in aenampaign for “reform”? in the persons administering the Government with a candi. date against whom owas presented such an urray of charges, and sirengthened by what was represented as” such “edticlusive evl- dence.

Not one word of evidence hax been presented to sus- tain then, It ts falr to presume, and the country hag long since retched that con- cluston, that these accusations were fabricated for use against his nomination, and, having served thelr Immediate purpose, have bean permitted to sink into the contempt and ob- livion thoy deseryo, Tuk Ciicaao ‘Truss hag no personal objection tu the nomination of Gen.

But a party that Includes Blaine, Edmunds, Washburne, and Windom ts cortatnty under no necessity to nominate a candidate agalnst whose vlection a large percentage of the Republican voters of the country will indignantly — protest.

Gen. Simith, the atlorney of the West Park Board, has ovensioned considerable surprise fund some consternation by tis unexpected oplilon to the effect that the Commort Coun- eli has no authority to transfer to the Park Commilsstoners the control of West Washing- ton street nso bowleyardand a part of the part system, If Gen, Smith's position ve correet, then the Michtan avonne boulevard project must also be abandoned, and Chicago will be permanently deprived of desirable appronch- es to the parks whieh have been Iatd out at such vast expense, ‘There {4 reason to he Neve, however, that Gen, Sintth's view of tho ense will not govern the Courts, If ft shall be necessary to bring tha question before them, ils opinion ts based mainly upon acase which was passed upon by the Courts prior to the net of 180. The proposed transfer of a part of Washington street for boulevard purposes ft that thne rested solely upon the West Park act and the then powers of tho City Council under tts charter and tho State lw. But the uct of 878 was a specife authortza- tlon of the transfer of one street as an ap- provcy) to each of the several parks under vortatn conditions, and, unless that aet is une coustitutlonnl, the power row exists, though it did not extat before, to eonfer upon the Park Commisstoners certain authority and supervision over certain streets. Ibeantot bo: that the City Conneft has no power under any: elreumsiitnees to make such transfer, ntul that no suet power enn be constitutionally vonferred upon it; for, if that were the case, there would have beech noe Grand boulevard betwen Thirty-fth street, where It begins; to the elty timits ae ‘Thirly-ninth str ir the Part Comnutsstoners may control n street for four blocks within tho elty tints, as they to In the ease of the Grand boilevard, then they may with proper authority assume juris- dictlon. over twenty or thirty blocks, and ft Was to give such authority that the Park-Ap- proneches act of 1870-was passed by the Legis Jature, Wado not think there is any danger that Gen, Smith's view of the matter will bo ultiinately sustained to the extent of pre- venting thé boulevatding of any street, Tend- ing to the parks, bué [b muy to delay the lmprovementof a West Park approach, and perhaps be used: te contest the Michigan avenue hnprovemunt. | Even this would be a great misfortune to the efly.

Tho report that was current 0 few days ago as to the death of Thecbaw, King of Burmal, appears to have been a mistakes Instead of Dele dead, he bs drunk again, Ils drunk- enness, instead of Invelving Ig own death, sluply necessitates the death of several hun dred of the population; and as his sprees are of almost constant. occurrence thure Is iw probability that he may kil off his entire poptilation titess the Burmese deities should thre of being propitiated with abundant slreams of human gore, or some of the Pow- ers make him quit. As hig death has been minfouneed several times before, only to be contradicted and supplemented with the In- fellizenee that a few hundred of hts faithful | subjects had their heads chopped off, Ib may be that this Isa playful way he bias of In- fortuing the world that he has goue. Theebww has only been im power about two. years, but he has improved his thie. He celebrated his accession to the throne with a holocaust of all his relattves he could lay hands on, Some of thent got away, byt he managed teenteh about a hundred, inelud- Ing nt fale proportion of kits father’s wives and several score of his brothers and sisters, as well ns the cousins and the aunts, whom he put out of existence in all the diferent inethods dks diabolical ingenulty could sug- gest, Some were Knocked on the back of the nevk with clubs; some were blown up after haying thelr mouths and thronts filled with powdel; some were whipped to death; some were cit in twains and seme were buried allye, At Inst, tring of individual slanghter, he gave the signal to Is soldlery to finish the reminder atonce, ‘Tho ndults were knocked on the head Mike cattle, and the children were picked up hy the legs and kihed’ by tho simple process of swinging: them round the head and dishing thelr brains out against wall, In this way he disposed of about ea hundred possible claimants to the throne, though unfortunately they were maluty mothers-In-law and aunts, who would not have stood mueh show. Ils brothers, of whom he hod a regiment, for ily father was difusive In his affections, were smart enough: tu get away, tempornrily at Ienst, though several of them have since that time been run through tha Royal shambles, Immedl- ately after his accession, 'Thoebaw took to hard drinking. If had always been a drinker, but now he beeame an iminoderate toper, pourlng Hauer into hitnself in such quanti- ties that It was not long before his Royal bouts swarmed with snakes, It appeurs that in the Burmese theological scheme this con- ultion of bouts is not pleasing to tho delties who preside over that godforsaken Empire. ‘Yo propltiate thelr wrath, the astrologers, wlio. are his spiritual attaudants, suggested moro hunmunsacritice, and ‘Thoebaw ordered soveral more relatives to be caught and slaughtered, ‘They were ditewlt to fad, however, as, sin- gularly enough, they had a prejudice agalust being pounded to pieces and having thelr heads chopped off to eure thelr distinguished relative'’s delirium, Relatives belng searee, outsiders were*reeruited.

The Denoerats have not elven up thelr purposo to cmbarrass tho oxesution of the Nationa! Election Inw at the approaching Presidential contest. ‘Ihelr efforts at the extra session last gummer were directed to tho actual nullification of the Inw. ‘Their falture to accomplish this was followed by such emphatle popular condemnation that they dared not resume’ the original design, but they are determined t hundicap the Jaw and the Executive branch of the Govdriment, In such a manner’ that there will be no ado- quate protection agninst fraud and violence, ‘Tho bulldozers, roughs, repeaters, and bal- lot-box stuffers are to be nottied that the National Jaw tos been robbed of {ts vitality, and that there will be nb danger fn vlolathig, it, ‘To this end was Inserted the amendment, in the Defleieney DIM which provides, tat the Special Duputies shall he appointed by the Courts Instend of the United States Mar- shals, ‘She result may be in sume coses that no Special Deputies will be appointed; in oll cases ‘tha election’ oficers will no longer be subject to the unthority of thelr nominal ehtefs;and may or may uot dis- chargu tholr ditties fallifully, Even it hon- estly disposed to protect the Integrity of the ballot, the Marshals will be notoriously in- capnble under tho ¢freumstances, for the proposed amendment to the Army bill wiil be nt notice that they cannot call upon the United States Government for any assistanes except through Judicial process, which can. seareely be begun before the cledtion will be over. ‘This stubborn and prolonged reststance to tho execution of tho Election laws denotes fraudulent intent upon the partot the Deme- eruts, Last year the effort to repeal these Jaws was based upon the broad: ground tha thay were unconstitutional; but sinee that thine the Supreme Court has decided that tho Vaited States Govermnent lias the rlghtun- der the Constitution to defeat fraud, resist violence, and protect honest votes in the electlonof members of the National Congress. It would by an anomalous and despicable Government that had no such right, 1b would be an enduring injustice and menace if any State-louse elique or local combina- tlon could at any general cleetion strangl the honest majority of 1 district, and thereby: defraud not merely the people of a single section, but, by this changing the majority iu Congress through one or more fraudulent dls ticts, actually disfranehise the majority In the entlre Nation. And now that the Inw of Natlonal supervision over National clectlons has been decided constitutlonat by the high- ext tribunal in the Jand, and while the De ocrats stlit lack the power to repeal that law, itis both cowardly and vicious to maim and cripple the Executive braneh of the Govern- ment in such miunner that the law cannot be enforced. It isthe potley of the Democrats: to rush Uirough thelr amendments In‘the shape of “riders” upon the Appropriation bills with- out being drawn Into debate, But this. poll- ey, even If it be strictly adhered to, will not avall to concen! from the country the real an- hhnus of the Democrats, ‘Tho amendment of- fered by Mr. Robeson on Saturday served to uncover the Democratic purpose, because the majority would not permit It to come toa vote. Lt was in the followlng language: Provided, further, Pheeneth lay: herein or in any othor lect contained shail be held to forbid or prevent nny citizen of the United States or any persons Jn its service or under the protection of ta Inwe from aesintion wo civil olllcers of the Government In the execution of the luwa of the United States and the preservation of ita peace whonever called npon for such assistance, In voting down this. proposition, - the Demoerats have plainly royenled their determined hostility to any actual enforee- ment of the Election laws. ‘Tiere should be no objection at any time to calling upon the citizens of the United States to assist the clvil ollicers of tho Government to enforce any Jaw upon the statute-books or to preserve the peace. Lt is an axlom of Government that nll eftizens are bound not merely to obey its laws and keep tho peace themselves, but to cume to the ald of Government officers when enlled upon to assist in enforcing obedience from wauld-be law-breakers, Ax a general proposition, no Democrat with.any ambition for future political preferment would dare antagonize the prinelpla of tho Robeson proposition, but It Is resisted because of {ts beuring upon the Election Jaws, which the Democrats have determined shall not he eriforcer.« During the carly part of the present session there was a promise that this Issue would be avoided by the Democrats, but ft ig now certain that It will come before the people very conspicuously during the Presidential campalgu, The position of the Democrats will be not merely to urge upon the people the repent of the National Election Jaws, because they are designed to provent and punish fraud und because they are in conflict with the theory of Stute supremacy, butalso to defend the astonishing doctrine that the laws of u Government may be prac- tlenlly nullified by a Congresstonal cabat which has not tho strength to repeal thom.
