THE DEAU EMFEHOR.
\\ illian* 1., Emperor of Germany,
died at 8-30 o’clock on Friday morn
mg, after knocking at death's door
for three days past. He was con
scious during most of his last hours,
and talked over the condition of the
empire with lit* councilors, showing
surprising clearness of mind and at
tention to deUii*. It was a calm
and peaceful end to a long and hen
orahle life which had seen much of
warfare, and would probably have
seen more in another year. In an
other place we give a full hiatory of
the great emperor.
His son and successor, now Freder
ick 111., is himself almost at the
point of death, and the kingdom is
now under the regency of his son,
Prince William, who will probably
soon ascend the throne.
The actual ru!*r is still Prince liis
mark, the old emperor’s right hand
man; but he, too, has passed the ai
lotted term of nun, and is beginning
to show signs of breaking. 'V hen
he dies Germany will see eventtul
days. The growing party of oppo
sition to a strong imperial govern
merit will then see its chance, while
the outside enemies of the empire
will, not be alow tn *c* in »nv nnnnr
tunity that tnav present itself. Vet
the Germans are as strong and stub
hern a people now as when Ca-sar
admired their hardihood and valor,
and may be regarded as equal to any
perils that may hew, whatever be
tide tbqir present leaders and their
present system.
0>LY EIGHTEEN DEMOL HATIC OP¬
PONENTS.
At the commencement of the Fif
tieth Congress the gam for tariff re
form is noticeable. The forty two
Handall strength has dwindled down
to eighteen, and if he succeeds in
holding one half that number when
the final vote comes up on the bill,
he will surprise some of his best
friends. There are one hundred
and sixty eight Democrats, one hun
dred and fifty three Republicans and
four Labor or Independents in the
House. '1 he best estimate that can
be made on the tariff question at
this time, that is to say if a vote
was to be had tomorrow, is that the
tariff bill pending in the Wats and
Means Committee would lose th-
votes of the following members on j
• he Democratic side; Randall, Snow

IISWALL.N THEOBY IS PRAC¬
TICE.
John J. IngaiU of Kansas edified
tbs Senate galleries Tuesday with
what used to be called “the greatest
effort of his life" when I.oscoe Conk
ling delighted the groundlings. In
a polemic sense ingaiis exiraordina
rv outburst ;a Lrjond criticism
s«ifi u®*eif co-id by no turn of
pbtaac, no play of fancy, make the
utierat.ee more ludicrous than it was
as it fell from the apparently froth
ing lips of ibis exampiar of wild
Western scholarship. To say noth
ing of the arneniti-s looked for in
senatorial debate, the speech offends
p;
r:r,;
ive exposure of the pension fraud.
To this end Ingalls not only dis
t >rtesi the Listcry of it^^divii War,
but he denounced Hancock, McCiel
!an and Greeley a> all'ts and syropa
thizersof rebi- ; Why he omit

bad, it is not surprising that Ingalls
has this very tor opinion of the 1
I'biel Magis’.i
“The nomiL... a end election of
Grover Cievtiaud had made tbe pre
tensions of any American citizen to
tbe Presidency respectable. Tbore
was no man in this country whose ig
norance was so profound, whose ob
scuity so impenetrable, whose antete
so degraded that he had not 1
the right to aspire to the presideu
tial nomination by the Democratic
party."
Wrath, like drink, reveals tbe real
man. In this one phrase Ingali* dis
closes the gangrene that has been at
work on the unwholesome fibers of
bis parly since Grover Cleveland has
shown nimseif to bethe exponent of a
live, progressive and conquering
Democracy. Ingalls and his party
had borne Blaine’s defeat with tran
quiiity, assured that Mr. Cleveland's
inexperience in xffiirs and the alieg
^v> oinMuffitni® in ms party would
to public distrust of Democratic su
premacy.
Instead of this they have seen the
President growing stronger and
stronger day by day io the confidence
and admiration of the whole people.
They have seen the Democratic
party pushing prudently, conserva
tively in the path they have marked
out for themselves, until now. on
the eve of the presidential eleciion,
tbe whole country accepts a renew
ed tenure of the Auainistratiou as
inevitable The other day Ingalls
asserted that "politics, like war,
has no concern with morality
that, in the pursuit of party ends,
‘‘honor, truth, virtue, friendship,
consistency" arc* cast aside. The
teacher of these defiantly immoral
doctrines has the courage o? his
perversion*. His speech proves that
he is not afraid to practice what he
preaches. For to assert what Leas
setts, tc insinuate- what he hints, to
giorify what he proclaims, is fbe
last expression of political duhones
•y and personal shamelessness.
