The New York MftiU which starts its editorial page every day with a quotation of Scripture, is talking about President Cleveland's “bluff.” I; is to lie feared that there is a ro formed gambler somewhere in in the Mail s editorial fold. The republicans state convention of New York on Tuesday nominated ex Senator Warner Miller for Gov¬ ernor and S. \ . R. Oruger for Lieu¬ tenant Governor. The platform is the usual thing, with tho addition of a blow aimed at the president’s recent message. Miller’s speech of tttHvpUuci! was commonplace, and contained no single expression that w a ■: worthy of note. In addition to the tariff debate suggested between Mr. Elaine and Speaker Carlisle, it is proposed that Congressmen McKinley, of Obio.and Breckinridge, of Kentucky, tell the people whit they know on that sub p et The chances are that before the campaign closes tho voters will be enabled to vote intelligently on the great issue, and if they do, they will vote for tariff reform. li will be observed as somewhat significant that whenever any eon siderable number of farmers have met in convention since Mr. Blaine’s defence of trnsts. they have not fail c 1 to condemn trusts in unmeasured terms Perhaps if tho monopolists were called together they wonld ap prove Mr. Blaine's words. It has been a long time since he was not controlled by tho monopolists. Base ball is the National game. When the Greenbackers complete their ticket there will just nine can didates for President, and nine for Vice. Now, if Uncle Sam wants to pay off the National debt be willoDly have to announce a series of games, and charge $10 for admission. Some sixteen of the candidates will be out of a job in November, and such a scheme might show first-class talent at base bal 1 , and get some of them lucrative places. It can hardly be doubted that Cleveland wonld make a first class ‘‘short-stop.” for no ball could get pjst him. If the rules of the game allowed Mrs. Lockwood to catch with her apron, she would be no slouch. A FALSE ALAKM. Some of the republican newspa¬ pers are very much afriad that the supreme court will become demo cratio within the next four years, and they are frantically demanding the election of Harrison and Morton to prevent such a condition of affairs. Of course they insist that if the court were to become democratic there would be danger of the country going to ruin in very short order. It is true that if Mr. Cleveland is re-elected, there will be a strong probability that the court will be¬ come demosratic. The court is com posed of nine justioes, of whom three are democrats. Two of the republi can justices are now beyond the re tiring age, and if they do not die within the next four years, they will doubtless retire upon the pensions to which they are entitled. Oi course democrats would be appointed to the vacancies thus created. But wbat reasons have the republi cans for thinkiDg that the country would not be just as safe with a dem ocratic supreme court as a republi can one? Four years ago they said that if Mr. Cleveland were elected the workshops of the country would be closed, that business would come to a standstill, and that the wrecks of financial disasters would be visi¬ ble everywhere. Of course their pre dictions did not come true. 1 hey have been compelled to admit that the country has been exceptionally prosperous since Mr. Cleveland be¬ came president, and .that his adminis tration has been a wise and safe one. But they say that if the supreme court becomes democratic there will be great danger that the confederate claims will be paid. What nonsense! The northern republicans seem to be a good deal more concerned about these war claims than the ex confeder ates themselves. They drag them forth and raise an outcry about them as olten as they can, without making themselves ridiculous, with the hope of frightening northern voters into supporting the republican ticket. These claims have been used for that purpose so often, however, that they are far from being as effective as they once were. The suggestion that if Mr. Cleve¬ land has the chance he will fill the supreme bench with southerners is not xvorthy "of a moment’s serious consideration. He will doubtless give the south her lair share of the supreme court justices, but nothing more, and a fair share would riot be a majority by any means, or anywhere near a majority. The northern re¬ publican journals need not be alarm ed about the supreme court- There is no probability that it will ever as¬ sist in paying ex-confederate claims. The river and harbor bill is now a law. and the officers of the engineer bureau at Washington bavecommenc ed the preparation of plans for a re*, newal of work on the river and bar bor improvements. Flint river has an appropriation of $20,000, of which five thousand dollars will be expend ed between Albany and Montezama, and fifteen thousand dollars will be used below Albany. The expen ditures oh this river have amounted to $103,080, nnd it will take $83,000 to finish the work. Below Albany the work of cutting through the rock shoals will continued, and be tween Aibany and Montezama the obstructions in the river will be re moved as far as the funds will allow. In 1884 it was freely predicted that the election of Cleveland would ruin the country. Mr. Wilson, of Iowa, now predicts tbut the re-elect ion of Cleveland will overthrow the constitutional amendments. What humbugs were the prophets of 1884, and what a humbug Mr, Wilson is !
