Tin; only olllcial to lit'chosen on the state ticket in New York this year is a judge of the court of appeals. The re publicans leave tlie nomination to their state committee. The comity democracy favor a stall' convention. Tub lories are stirring up trouble in Ireland. Evictions are going on, and arrests arc made on the plea of preserv ing ord r. The best way to preserve order in Ireland is to stop arbitrary and op pressive rule, ami give the people a voice in managing their own affairs. Two little towns in New Hampshire arc to be made rich through (lie death of a Boston hanker, who leaves If 1,800,000 for the support of schools and libraries, and for aiding the poor in Wnlfhorough and Tuftonliorough, N. 11. These places had a population in 1880 of only :1I47>— two-thirds of the whole number belong ing to Wnlfhorough, which is a famous summer resort, This gift is equivalent lo $418 per inhabitant. It scents that the Mormons, altlumgh driven out of many places in the south, have at last succeeded in eftoeting a lodg ment ill a sparsely settled region of South Carolina, south and west of the old Cow- pens battle-ground. Here the did Mor mon elders have made some converts, and it begins to look as if all the lawless, im moral and densely ignorant of that part of the state should get together in a Mor mon settlement there. (tin esteemed contemporary, the st. Louis ■ Ucpuhlican, publishes the follow ing as a plank that would not be out of place in any democratic platform : Resolve'll, That ns democrats. recognizing the conHtitutum as a gmiranteo of the rights of the individual, we remain consistently opposed to embodying in it any police regulation whatever, and reltern'ing the principal that the chief aim of government is to maintain rights, wc hold that such measures for the regulation of the citi zen as are consistent with governmental limits-j irregularities in a vast establishment enti ties should be adopted not as constitutional , t „ k .,.. lU „|. There is too much i.i- amendments, but asstatutes to the end that they | , , may be easily repealed when expedient, amt Thai ■ t"l\ed to permit them, it 1 - Ml Pith oil i the right of the maiortty to change its mind may government. The civil service reform be in no wi<e Impaired. j movement must continue until it uecoru- as also are Florida ami Louisiana. II is a noticeable (act commented upon by tlic Agriculturist that the southern stales arc more inhospitable to the fair , than any other section. “The Empire j Slate of the Smith,” t leorgia, is to have only six fairs, and 7>,“ of its counties know I not the joys thereof. Texas has fairs in ! only six counties, and none in .'Hi others. Louisiana lias only one fair, and III other counties where they might he held. So with North Carolina, West Virginia, Ar kansas and other'southern stales. They have too few fairs. There are in the United States and ; their territories, including the Indian reservations, which count as counties in j the postal guide, 2,74(8 counties. Fairs a>’e held in very nearly half of these. | Excluding the sparsely settled mining i district and wild counties of the terri tories, it will be seen that wherever the people arc alert to take advantage of their opportunities in connection with agri- | culture there the fair exists. Why should it not be so? The county fair affords the only opportunity for the great mass of the people to gather together 1 for amusement, information, or social ■ converse, without regard to creed or poli tics. No one who has ever seen a county j fair in full operation can have failed to j notice there the rosy, happy faces, the i faces .with content marked upon them, I the faces of men who do not jump with j dismay at every turn in stocks. These j faces are borne hy the bone and sinew of ! the country. The farmer's pride in his j fat oxen, his big red apples and mam- j moth squash is laughed at by the city I man, who never handled a hoe or tossed a load of hay into the mow, but the pride is as just and wort hy as that of the man who collects bibelots and bric-a-brac simply to look at. Our valued contemporary, the Columbus (Gap Enqvirer-Sun, describesitsdisesteemedcontem porary, the Cincinnati Enquirer, as “the dumb waiter of perdition.” Without accepting the theory, we must admit that it does something to explain the pitch of journalistic controversy in Cincinnati.—Missouri Republican. Ex-Pension Commissioner Dudley is reported to be agaiu engaged to manage the Indiana cam paign. His pleasing task will he toelec-t a repub lican legislature. A correspondent of the Baltimore American (rep.l who has been traveling in North Carolina says that “the colored people are well treated,” and adds; “We made it our business to ask 'luarlv into the nature Ilf the I colored men, wherever wc met them, if their 11II-1-11’iII-' th“ < ' civil or political rights were Interfered rvirh, and Evidently we shall b view s’ns to the stability "four own conti nent. Within a few years we have had several minor shocks of this nature, and now wc may have to contemplate the consequences of a very destructive one. Early in the summer there was news of tremendous disturbances in the southern Pacific,and New Zealand, an ancient and chronic centre of volcanic action, was terribly shaken. But a few days since wc had reports of severe disturbances of the same nature in (Ireeee. Now we have our own part of the crust agitated. It is probable that these widely-separated catastrophes arc hut signs of the opera tion of the same force, and that they have a mechanical relation to one an other. They may prove instructive cases in the scientific study of this most formi dable of nature’s operations. (IKKAT I’Ol.lTIt Al. ISSI’K. We publish an article from the demo cratic campaign hook this morning which will lie interesting reading. The com mittee has prepared a historic review of the holes made in the treasury hy the sappers and miners of the republican party. They find an aggregate, oil some counts,of over twelve millions in defalca tions, hut this fails to include the brill iant piratical names of llowgate, ltobe- son and Brady. The experts estimate that twenty millions would about cover the total loss. It is upon this line that the next great political issue must he made—an issue for the protection of the masses of the people. It is not a manufactured issue. It is the inevitable result of progress and the necessity of adopting governmental processes to changing conditions. Jn dis cussing this important subject, a contem porary very rightly says that oil one side of it are arrayed those who find their profit in sustaining abuses whereby the lew are enriched at the expense of the many, and whereby what are really class privileges are maintained. On the other side are,.those who are awakening to a sense of how they are being burdened, and realizing their claims to a better j state of a (lairs. It may be said that this i is no new issue; that it Inis long existed. I : This is true; but it possesses a signiti-1 i cauce which it never did before, and i 1 which compels attention.

KWMIlqlAKKv ttur i U spat dies this morning bring the intelligence of another shaking up in California. One town there is reported as having suffered a great calamity. In the lust few days earthquakes have been felt in more than twenty states. Earthquakes are no doubt necessary in cidents in the history of every part of tlio earth’s crust, hut the people of this coun try have had the habit of looking upon them as especial products of the fire- scarred regions of Central America so far as relates to this continent, and of asso- Tlie people can no longer be deluded into ^ the belief that there can he any honest acquisition of single fortunes of many millions solely through public franchises. These corporation abuses and the whole ; mass of kindred evils rendered possible I through corrupting the representatives of the people and the conduct of elections \ must lie ended. Here we have the general character of an issue outlined which cannot he : avoided. And looking at the records of the two parties in the luff congress 1 it i> not difficult to see what sides of this issue tlicrcimblic.nl and democratic parties arc respectively taking. The , mposition of the repub- j lienn senate ought to he a revelation sufficiently plain of itself, but with the tale of subsidies sup ported, forfeitures of unearned land grants resisted, reforms in the land de partment cheeked, congressional railroad attorneyships sustained, and more still of hud repute, its attitude becomes abso lutely unmistakable. The democratic congressional record is in the other direction, and the general tone of the state democratic platforms recently adopted is in the line of the policy tlm indicated. i PENNYROYAL PELLS ! “CHICHESTER'S ENGl-ISH 'CHICK SSI Th«* It inn' £ R'S E) n«i ft <t» i\. i i inline.
