So if she should turn ‘a sharp corner and confront a and difficult situation we would be her. Equally would our sympathy™go out to her if Russia were her opponent.

He is rapidly growing tn num- and in power, and he is already p! and is destined to continue to play, a great part on the world’s stage. He is making himself felt in the far East, and his pretensions there, as elsewhere, are distinctly autocratic. And yet the United States is friendly to both France and Russia. From the one it received assistance in its struggle for independence, and from the ether assi ance in its stfuggle for the preservation of the Union. It is unmindful of neither ob- ligation. It wishes both countries peace and prosperity. But its higher duty is to itself, ard to all for which it stands. It ts of the Arglo-Saxon family, moving by the quence ber: irg, family chart, and jealous of the family name and purposes.

No hard and fast compact is needed to secure this result. In this matter it may be said indeed that blood is not only thick- er than water, but thicker than ink. And when the pinch comes blood always tells. + «= —_—_ Mr. Croker's Reply. William M. Tweed must be very dead in- d if at this time his bones are not rat- ing with amusement. He was not deficient in humor when aiive, and this invoking of his shade by the boss of Tammany Hall to forward a campaign by Tammany for hon- and reform is riotously diverting enough to reach into and even beyond the grave. The devil rebuking sin has hitherto done service as the most striking of con- tradictions. But that must yield first place now. For Mr. Croker as a reformer, point- ing warningly to the record of Tweed, sees that and goes the devil one better. The reply of Mr. Croker to the indict- ment of the Bar Association is in every way an unus.al performance. In the first place, it is not the work really of its reputed au- thor at all. Mr. Croker, as everybody knows, is quite incapable of preparing an article for publication. His talents lie in the direction of such organization as Tam- many Hall knows, and of enforcing disct- pline after the fashion of holding men in terror. This reply, therefore, has other parentage. Mr. Croker merely stands for it, and in this way he has been put in the gro- tesque position of trying to play the cor- ruptions of a former boss of Tammany Hail trump ecard in the game of the pre- »f the present boss of that organ- a reformer and a protector of interests of the people. is nothing but this grotesque ex- hibition in Mr. Croker’s reply. The arraign- ment of his conduet by the Bar Association in the case of Judge Daly is not met at all except by a repetition of his first assertion, that il is none of the Bar Association's bus ness what he dees about the making or un- making of judges. Tammany Hall is all and he is all right, and the Bar Ass tion and everybody else disposed to be the There ci critical toward the Tammany program may go hang. verthe! © signs that the peo- uy resent Mr. Cro- and are exerting them- s to rebuke him the polls. It is high time that they should. The presence of such a man at the head of the demo- cratic party of the greatest state in the nion is a reflection on the character and intelligence of its people. His proper place not above that of a ward striker, and his activity there even ought to carefully regulated in the interests of honesty and government. Soe gg The Law and the Railroads.

Algernon Wood and Reginald Baiss, two Wealthy young Englisnmen, have just had a@ narrow escape from a gold bricx swindler in New York. They owe their failure to part with $10,000 in exchange for a nice lump of brass to the slimmest of slim chances, arfd not to any acumen on their part. The well-informed police detectives of the metropolis are also to be counted in as part of the bulwark raised between these trusting young Britons and deep chagrin. Regie and Algie—their names will permit a minimum of American sympathy—were as neatly caught, up to the last moment, as were ever two fledglings who fell into the hands of accomplished sharpe: The swindler displayed talents for dissimulation and strategy which, if invoked in a legiti- mate enterprise, should have made his for- tune. The game which lured Regie and Algie was cleverly played. The swindler long ago noticed by the cable dispatches that a certain Major Weod, of large wealth, had died in London, leaving a son. So, after a time, he wrote to Wood, announcing him- self as a friend whom Wood had helped in certain mining enterprises in the Pacific re- gion, who had “struck St rich” and in con- science deemed that part of the money should go to his benefactor. So, with many details of the business, he suggested that a meeting be arranged at which the gold already taken out of the mine be turned over to Wood, the writer to be given half. Of course, the letter reached London after Wood's death. It was intended that it should be late. Wood's son had no*means of ascertaining if his father had in fact in- dulged in this bit of speculative charity and answered the letter, which bore marks of genuineness. As a result, Algie came to this country and met the gold brick man at Niagara—near the border. He then sent for Regie, his friend, and later the two secured two thousand pounds from Regie’s father for the purchase of half of the brick. The lump of metal was bored by the young men at their pleasure, in all portions. The filings were carefully gathered together by the sharper and returned to them in a packet. Of course, they assayed high. They were real gold. They did not come from the brick. That was merely a bit of clever legerdemain. Convinced, they agreed to take the brick and pay the $10,000, one-half of its estimated value, the trans: fer to be made in New York. On the day of the proposed transfer they were on their way to the appointed rendezvous, when Algie thought by chance of a letter of introduction to a lawyer, and, his office being near at hand, the two dropped in on him. In the exuberance of their spirits, be- ing about to come into the possession of a gold brick at half price, they spoke of their good fortune. The New .York lawyer winked, took the two young men to police headquarters, and inside of an hour the man with the gold brick was in a cell. He was an old offender. It is well that Algie and Regie were pro- tected. It would have been sad if, during this era of good feeling between England and the United States, it should have been demonstrated that two innocent young Englishmen could not feel secure from the wiles of the American sharper even in thei: own dear London. ————— As Aguinaido has a number of jealou. in his army, he feels more than ever quali- fied to negotiate with this republic on equal terms. ao No matter how frank Mr, Croker may seem, there is bound to be a suspicion thal he knows a great deal which he will ne tell. _—> «-»_____ It is fortunate for the empress dowager that the Chinese emperor is not as har to defeat politically as he is to kill. a Uncle Sam rigidly adhere tion that he went Cuba; to thé proposi into this affair to fre not to indorse notes. soe By declining to make a speech Senator Quay will run some risk of spoiling a bril- liant filibuster record. > The steambvuat excurs over, om season is about excepting between Cuba and Cadiz. soe he “Tenderloin” has cnce more distinguished by its extreme t soe SHOOTING becom: ness.
