In (lie latitudes fill- from theneatof
trouble, it is quite fashionable for riqutli-
liean editors to abuse Seeretary liayanl
for not pitching into Mexico. -‘Distance
lends enchantment" to such a proceed
ing.
Tine tavern keepers of Belfast propose
to claim eoi*ponsation from the justices
who compelled them to close during the
riots. Their demand might lie offset by
n claim against the tavern keepers for a
goodly share of the damages done by the
rioters.
Souk of our northern cotemporaries
who are very fond of abusing Texans for
getting a little war-like enthusiasm can
now change base. Let them abuse the
south for having too much self-respect,
to tight under a flag while the statutes
proscribe them in a humilliating and
shameful manner.
A curat deal of time lias been wasted
in tlie trial of the anarchists at Chicago,
but tlie winding up shows that justice
was not outweighed. During tlie trial
train wrecking was reported from that
ill-governed city. Now that the courts
have dealt resolutely and promptly with
tlie wholesale murder of the anarchist
stamp, let us hope that it will haven
beneficial effect upon other outrages.
Tnmperizing with them simply encour
ages other violations of the law.
Ovkh tlie stage where tlie Irish con
vention held its sessions in Chicago was
a huge streamer bearing the inscription
‘‘God Save Ireland.” it wot a natural
invocation, considering tlie tendency of
ex-Congrcssman Finerty and politicians
of liis stripe to damage the cause by
senseless advocacy of dynamite outrages.
Ireland has most to fear from her pro
fessed friends who follow the teachings
of O’Donovan Rossa.
Tiie Missouri Republican says that by
n singular coincidence it is always the
man of irreproachable demeanor and cir
cumspect walk who elopes with the
funds. The time i- rapidly approaching
when a cashier of conspicuous decorum
whoso only beverage is ginger ale and
whose one amusement is the sinless
game of chequers will find it difficult to
makeup a bond. Tlie nineteenth cen
tury will yet discover the esoteric nexus
between priggish ness and embezzlement.
IIAVKS Edit CONI;HESS.
Ohio is distinguished our being tlie
home of tlie greatest fraud and the cheek
iest man now in existence. Both have
held the highest offices under the govern
ment, one having occupied the presi
dential chair, to which lie was not elect
ed, and tlie other is an ex-speaker of the
house of representatives. Haves, the
fraud, and brazen Keifor are both candi
dates for. congress. So far as Hayes is
concerned there can he but one motive
which prompts him to Hook the place,
and that is lie wants tlie salary and
wants a chance to work the place for all
that it is worth. He is an avaricious
man and lias demonstrated that lie will
take everything upon which ho can get
his hands.
This man Hayes lives in the tenth
Ohio district, and depends upon the re
publican party to carry him through.
Tlie <i. iriot is largely republican, hut |
ju>t as soon as it was learned that he was j
figuring to become tlie representative
from that district, tlie republicans opened
a popular subscription to defeat him.
It now conies to Hayes like a revela
tion, licit if he hud only proved man
enough to refuse to take even tlie presi
dency on a fraud, lie Would thereby have
won a far truer, nobler fame than he
could possibly .hope to have secured by
taking a stolen office—even the highest".
But lie was a small, narrow man,
who did not prove equal
to his opportunity, and took the
stolon place. But lie is now held in open
contempt for it, even by his own party—
whatever may be tlie situation in his
own congressional district; and what
makes liim still more contemptible, if
this were possible, is the fact, subse
quently made evident, that he sought the
presidency more for the money tlie salary
would yield him—a stolen salary belong
ing to Tilden—than for any consideration
of honor or fame connected with it.
It is to be hoped tliut this now gen
erally despised .man will be beaten in his
latest and characteristically base aspira
tion.
THE AN A Itl'HISTS.
Yesterday was a red letter day for law
and ord. r in America. Tlie Chicago Jury
sitting upon the anarchists arraigned for
their lives returned a verdict of “guilty"
—a verdict of death for all save one, and
this one seems to have been spared not
so much because lie deserved it, as be
cause the jury wished to demonstrate
that tlie law did not fear these men
enough to kill them all.
It is safe to say no jury ever sat since
the inauguration of the government upon
whose verdict weightier issues were
pivoted. Tills jury w i- not alone trying
the few hot-oyed, sulphur-blooded de
moniacs who crouched before tlie bar of
justice like so many dungeoned beasts to
whoso appearance tlie human form added
hideousness instead of relief. It was
tryingthe right of lawless and irrespon
sible anarchy to set up its kingdom be
tween tlie Atlantic and I’neille oceans.
And tlie flat has gone forth. Henceforth
tlie anarchist will know ids status in
America without, like these men in
Chicago* losing his life in an attempt to
ascertain it. None need sin through ig
norance now. And Hie anarchist who
sets his-foot upon tlie soil of this country
hereafter must, and knows lie must,
either renounce his faith, if faith it is, or
become an alien and an outlaw forever.
II takes two-hundred years to test any
new and distinct form of government.
And we are yet, in the crysalis or forma
tive stale. After the late centennial the
United States only started on its second
century of experiment. But if our re
publican infant must loll in swaddling
bands for another hundred years, this
verdict in Chicago proves it to lie an in
fant after the type of Hercules, who con
verted his cradle into an arena of blood,
and strangled the serpent that assailed
him before lie could walk. It requires
two-lmndred years at least for a supreme
court to cover every contingency with a
decision, and establish a precedent. It
requires two-hundred years of
constant running and lubricating
in n< great republic to wear
away tlie friction between the executive,
legislative and judicial branches of the
one great autonomy, it requires two
hundred years before the courts can stake
out all the frontier boundaries between
liberty and license and draw the black
dead-line of separation between the citi
zen and the outlaw. One of these lines
lias been drawn by the anarchist trial in
Chicago; and it will remain in the re
ports as indelible as tlie milky way in
tlie skv.
It lniB been known among the people
everywhere that this trial was the weigh
ing of an unknown monster in the bal
ance; that it involved a new relation of
tlie citizen to tlie body politic, and tliat
the verdict was to decide for good and
forever tlie difference between the
privilege and tlie perversion of
the right of free speech in America.
No such issue in exactly the same form
ever faced onr courts before. It em
bodied hair-splitting distinctions as well
as hair-raising possibilities. They are all
settled now, thanks to tlie Chicago jury;
and the world knows that in the United
States, the land of free speech, a man
may become a murderer by word of
month, as well as by overt act. Some of
these men are to be hung for things they
said—for speeches they made. And tlie
stomach of no sentimental stickler for
the moral lew need revolt at this. Too
often tlie heart of the real murderer is
dinted and his nerves are fired by the
words of his abetter and accomplice. Let
him who kills, and him who cries “kill,”
die together. In the eyes of heaven they
are twin children of perdition.
Here the question arises unbidden,
“ who are the anarchists ?” and well it
may, for the question will soon be “ who
were the anarchists ?” They are crossing
the stage of the continent by a returnless
route. It is a source of gratulation to say
that the anarchist is an imported article.
He landed here duty free, and in the case
of those in Chicago it is safe to say there
will lie no tax levied on their export.
Our air is not yet putrid enough to breed
an anarchist. His evolution requires the
tainted atmosphere of an effete monarchy
hacked by tlie bud blood and the villainy
of a thousand ancestors. The socialist
of Germany,' tlie nihilist of Rus
sia and tlie communist of
France are the species. The genus is tlie
anarchist found everywhere. Anarchist
is the general term. The Russian nihil
ists, the German socialists, the French
communist and the anarchists all over
the continent of Europe have spewn
their refuse upon our shores. Here they
have been joined by Americans and for
eigners—mostly foreigners—who have
everything to gain and nothing to lose by
another “Reign of Terror.” The ebuli-
tion of these men constitute a gospel of
hate. Being vile, they despise virtue;
being penniless, they despise legitimate
wealth; being blood-thirsty, they despise
toleration. What reception can a free
country provide for such men except
first a gallows and then a grave?
Though composed of many species,
speaking with regard to creed, these
men have been known under the name
of their genus, that is, anarchists in
America.
Very briefly sketched, their tenets
are these: Wealth is a crime if it refuses
to affiliate and share with pauperism ;
culture is tlie guilty corally of the better
condition of life ; and tlie decalogue itself
is but the feeble appeal of sense against
gratification.
This is their creed—and a creed is
always an index to the character that
I professes it. In view of these facts
[ civilization will sound a general amen
: to the Chicago jury’s verdict. Foreign
; anarchists are not bona tide im-
j migrants in the eyes of tlie law;
; they are strychnine in the stomach of
tlie body politic. It would be tmt n pro-
j teetive measure to provide for tlie slaying
of these anarchists after their first overt
act or declaration on our soil, just as fron-
; tier states offer rewards for wolf scalps
j and bear heads. To all these positions
the Chicago courts have now subscribed;
and so fur as they represi nt tlie rest of
the country they are the voice of the re
public. The verdict is but a forerunner
of others under similar conditions. If
the healthy sentiment out of which it
grew shall obtain everywhere even the
most mi-anthropic need have no fears
for the future. With such an enforce
ment of the law we will ere.long enter
upon an era which kings desired to see
and never saw—fur which prophets
longed and went to heaven to wait—an
era for which history lias no emblem but
Eden, and the future no type hut hc.fven
itself. But, on the other hand, if a false
conception of freedom shall prompt len
iency toward anarchists until their dis-
cipleship shall gain a foothold, the day-
will be rued by generations yet unborn.
Sapped of its virility, the commonwealth
will become tlie football of alien
adventurers. This continent with
l all its blossoms of promise
| will blacken into a plague spot, a wilder
ness and a sepulchre—a sepulchre of the
greatest republic ever bequeathed to tlie
race of Adam. (>ur republic will lie like
the “river Zaire” that runs not to tlie
sea, hut rests and roasts forever in the
burning red eye of the sun. The union
will he dead, and the weird raven of re- ■
morse, with gleaming eye and whetted
beak, will he tlie only watcher above its
dishonored and resurrectionless grave. I

It looks as though the republicans had a faint I
hope, by getting all iheir big men into the Held, j
of carrying—the state of Maine! They were re
cruiting stumpers at Washington for the Maine. I
campaign months ago. What is the matter?
Are they afraid they cannot carry the state? Or
is it because the}* expect to lose in the country at
large and want to make Sure of one crowable
victory?
It is reported that President Cleveland has al
ready begun investigating charges of violating
his order prohibiting federal officials from politi
cal aggressiveness.
Mr. R. A. Torrence, of Chester, Pa., claims to
have made the first feather-duster used in the
United States. This is his story : “When I was
thirteen years old I was working* with my step
brother, George Steele, on Pearl street, New
Y ork, and one day I fastened some ostrich feath
ers on a stick and used the appliance for dusting.
George watched the operation and an idea struck
him. He at once got to work and soon had a
pattern for a feather-duster. He had it pattened
and then entered into the manufacture and sale
of the new wares.”
The president’s wife is said to write about
twenty letters a day, a majority of them in reply
to letters from entire strangers. We don’t be
lieve it. More people tickled with the honor of
correspondence with so distinguished a lady
would have been usually dropping into the news
paper offices with their epistolary treasures.
Mayor Smith, of Philadelphia, has boldly an
nounced his determination to buy no more
tickets for picnics, fairs, excursions and benefits.
He will change his mind shortly before tlie next
election, at which he is a candidate.
It has been suggested that Fred Douglas might
contest the right of James C. Matthews to the
office of register of deeds at Washington under
the president’s recent appointment, but he dis
avows any sfc 1 ' intention, saying that he has re
signed and has no further interest in the matter.
Besides this, he told a reporter the president had
treated him fairly and he was glad to get away.
He is going to Europe soon.
Gov. Smith’s county in Vermont having de
clared in favor of Edmunds for senator, the
movement to retire the latter is regarded us at
an end.
Think of Yazoo county, Mississippi, voting for
prohibition! But then, probably, two-thirds of
the people in Yazoo county make their own
applejack, and the prohibition only applies to
the other fellows who have to buy their liquor.
