The Republican Newspaper Campaign.
The readers of Republican newspapers
now-a days appreciate the fact, well
known to journal.sts, that reporters can
find what thma.e sent to look for. The
New York Timm' correspondents see
nothing but anti-Arthur feeling. The
New York Tribune and the Philadelphia
Tress are gifted with men who encounter
an almost unanimous Blaine feeling.
The S p ring li a 14. Be pub He a n,. .which can
not only, in its own opinion, discern the
face of the sky, but also read the signs
of the times, can discover (or divine) a
general yearning for Edmunds. The
Chicago Tribune and the hyphenated
Inter-Ocean, of that city, the apostle of
truly El Maluli Republicanism in the
Northwest, perceive that the mountains
flame and the prairies flush and the
valleys gleam, while all the little hills
do clap their hands, for John A. Logan.
The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette
which now unites the Napoleonic might
of Field Marshal Halstead with the es
sential ethics of that truly good man.
Deacon Richard Smith, is able only to
size and sei/e the claims of Honest John
Sherman. The Indiana papers of radi
calism are certain that either Senator
Ben. Harrison or Postmaster-General
Gresham should be the “ theooming
man.” Apd so it is. There are as
many preferences among the people as
there are desires in editorial b.easts.
Republican journalism has simply be
come a mechanism, tor ascribing the
wishes and antipathies of editors to
general r,aiders. The sole value of the
prevailing practice of printing Presiden
tial pointers, in such newspapers, lies
•in tlx? presumption that the newspapers
retlect a local or a larger sentiment and
make themselves the mediums of it.
The impartial Democrat who reads
with judicial mind the medley of im
pressions in Republican papers finds
certain facts or characteristics running
through them. The -first thing that
strikes the attention is that there is not
very much about the Pres deucy in that
party at all. Indifl'erentjsm is more,
the rule than interest. The “booms”
for various aspirants have their initial
impulse in the ambition of the would
be candidates themselves. The rest is
the work of not unselfish or unthrifty
friends of theirs, who know how to ply
the arts of mention, interview, gossip,
advocacy 7, report, suggestive avowal
and safe disclaimer. The notable in
ertness of the Republican rank and file
encourage these efforts. They are
neither resented nor ratified. They are
a mply unopposed. Continued little by
little, the efforts have a tendency, be
ing neither antagonized nor indorsed,
to create a sort of passive acceptance
for themselves. The sheer effect of
iteration can lie predicated of them—
but not more. Still that has enabled
the candidates 4n sporting parlance, to
be entered 1 for the race. They are now
taking their exercise on the track; but
the jockeys and the stable boys number
more than those on the grand stand
and the pool-sellers have not begun
business at all.
Another consideration which the
ante-convention “booms” among fhc
Republicans impress is the varied
.character of the reasons or “cla ms”
put forth. A qualification for the Presi
dency is hardly urged at all, if at all
airged, it is made second to the asser
tion of “availability.” This “availa-
Ibility” does not signify that the candi
date has spec al points of favor to anv
condition of public opinion; but it sig
nifies that his friends claim for him
(some desirable special strength which
(makes him a little stronger than the
(Republican vote itself. Mr. Edmunds
/is urged because it is asserted that “the
’lndependents” would support him.
[That assertion has now here been tested
’by evidence—but it may be regarded as
.on offset to the known fact that the
.Vermont Senator is unpopular with the
working masses of his party. As plain
people are wont to dwell on the beauties
of the mind, so are those Republicans
'who have not commended themselves
to the manly and active forces in poli
tics addicted to references to “the In
dependent vote;” “the better element,”
etc. As a fact, politicians man Repub
lican conventions, make Republican
.nominations and conduct Republican
campaigns. They may not be able al
ways to nominate whom they would;
but they are invariably able, in the Re
publican party, to de eat the nomina
tion of those for whom they have “no
use.” They have “uo use” for those
whose vocation it is to profess to be bet
ter than other people, and their aversion
to Pharisees is not to their discredit.
The special claims urged for the others
t can be -tated iu a word. Mr. Blaine’s
1 strength with the corporat tons is urged
“ for him. General Logan’s friends in
sist that the entire “soldier vote ’ would
be for him. Mr. Sherman is advocated
on the ground that “the monied men
would put up for him.” Mr. Harrison
and Mr. Gresham are hailed as those
who could “insure Indiana.” Itistrue
that a genuine desire for Mr. Blaine ex
ists among some Republicans. It is as
true that lie is hated by other Repub
licans and distrusted by independent
men. The bald and bold question of
his strength with corporations accounts
for that detrust, as well as the shifty
conduct of the man in public positions.
Corporations and Mr Blaine are not
benefited by this kind of talk for him
Corporations have become expert in
politics—not by showing their hand.
There is a great sentiment against
them. Mr. Blaine’s enemies could well
adverrise his corporation allianc »s. His
friends are not wise in doing so. The
assumption that General Logan carries
the soldier vote or any otherclassifia fie
vote in his pocket, is not a justice or a
compliment to that vote. Soldiers are
citizens; they are Democrats or Repub
licans, according to convictions. They
are not men who sink principle, on
an office so large as the Presidency,
even iu comradeship. The claim for Mr.
Sherman is based on the policy and po
tentiality of corruption solely. The
light which history has cast on Dorsey ’s
methods makes the avowal of a pur
pose to renew 7 them only the hardihood
of desperation, and the" American peo
ple can be trusted to deal with it, if it
is attempted. The ability to “insure
Indiana,” claimed by Mr. Harrison and
Mr. Gresham is worthy of consideration.
Neither has ever run successfully before
the people of that State. The claim is
good only to draw attention to them,

The New York Times praises Presi
dent Arthur’s dinners, receptions and
! other forms of hosoitality as the finest
of the kind since Buchanan’s day and
equaled only by those of the early Pres
idents, w ho had only the etiquette of the
Old World to guide them.
“The usages of polite society,” says
the Tim 's , “have a right in the White
House. If we are vvfiling to consider
the mere pecuniary aspect of the mat
ter, we mu 4 see that the handsome sal
ary of the President is partly estimated •
on the presumpt on that he is expected -
to entertain many people handsomely. /
He’is given a line house, furniture, fuel,
a portion of a household force and
other things, in order that he mavfill,
his high office with the dignity and ele- !
gance befitting the Chief Magistrate of
a great, generous and good-living Re
public. A stingy Pres cient is cordial
ly disliked. What we may call the, of
ficial hospitality of I’resident Arthur's
Administration is with mt a flaw.”
But, referring to the abuse which the
Germans are heaping u on United
States Minister Sargent .at Berlin for
doing his duty and warning hs fellow
citizens that Bismarck’s prohibition of
the American hog was made in the in
terests of “protection” and not of
health, the ‘Times say. 4 that it will prob
ably hasten the day when all our diplo
matic service will be overhauled and
the missions to foreign powers, being
superfluous and mere relics of a time
when diplomacy had a meaning, will
he abolished.
But if ministers and missions are be
coming superllnous because it is no
longer necessary to the good under
standing of tw 7 o nations that they
should cultivate social, relations at one
another’s capitals, then, for the same
reason, “White House hospitality” is
becoming superfluous.
Missions and ministers mean that
two nations can not deal with one
another unless their representatives eat,
drink, parley, dance together and call
ceremoniously upon one another. So
in order to keep lip this business an
ambassador is .sent to “entertain” and
be tutorlaiued at the European capitals,
and the President is expected to “en
tertain” European ambassadors at
W ashington. This is the basis of
“White House hospitality.” It is true,
it includes others besides foreign min
isters, but this originated it, and this
is its central notion. i
The relations of this Nation with
others are mainly business relations
and not political; hence, as the Times
says* Consuls-General can attend to
them. For the same reason, “White
House hospitality,” so far as the inter
ests of the people are concerned, is a
mere ornament. The people are not
interested in it except as curiosity
i lungers. Their dignity aud hospital
ity are not representative, because the
only use*tlielPhave for a President is to
execute the laws and administer the
Government.
There is a certain romantic notion
that because the President stuffs h ro
se If and his guests w 7 ith elegant viands,
and drinks seven kinds of wine, and
covers his table with flowers, and knows
How to use napkins and finger-bowls
and is accomplished in the litany of the
dinner service generally, the people are
somehow greatly honored. So far, of
course, as they have a gentleman in
stead of a boor or a skinfiiut in the of
fice they are honored; but there is a
vast deal of humbug in thinking that
his gormandizing and his inviting oth
ers to eat and drink with him in the
highest style of art rellects glory upon
the people who elected him.
As a matter of fact, the White House,
as the social center of the Nation,
should be abolished. It should be used
merely as a business office, where the
President is expected to do his duty and
serve his fellow-citiz ns. For tlie rest,
he should go his way like any private
person; give dinners, receive company,
or rest in family retirement, according
to li s tastes. Ti.ere is no reason for his
giving a dinner as part of his official
duty, or even of his important station,
than there is for his going to the choic
est kind of plays and tos e the very best
of actors at the theater. But for the tra
dition in the matter, a newspaper would
as soon think of praising him for the
one as for the other. —Detroit Free

Logan’s Buncombe.
The smallest appropriation that ever
received the attention of Congress was
that of fifteen dollars for w 7 hich the bill
was called up in the Senate by Senator
Logan. The object was to refund that
amount to a party who had paid it to
the Government under a misapprehen
sion in a patent ease.
Upon its being intimated by some of
the Senators that the bill was too tri
lling for the consideration of the Senate
which has a preference for larger
game, something that has millions in
it, the reply of Logan showed that al
though the appropriation he asked for
was small there was nothing small
about Logan. He sa d that people who
were poor were just as much entitled to
their just dues as those who were rich.
It is not certain that this idea is or gin
al with the Illinois Senator. Something
of that kind may have been thought of
before, but it struck the Senate as a
now Ity, for it has been a time
since the ma ority of that body thought
it worth while to attend to iiCcrests
lower down in the pecuniary scale than
those of millionaires and ' great cor
porations. The intrusion of such a doc
trine must have been a surprise to the
more than a score of millionaires in the
Senate to whom the suggestion that
there was anything due to poor men
was certainly a new fangled sort of rev
elation.
But it took the Senator from Illinois
to bring them up to a proper sense of
their duty to the poor man. Senator
Logan is not much on grammar, and
there are people who have the advant
age of him in the correct me of the dif
ferent parts of speech, hut when it
comes to devotion to the poor man’s in
terests he won' t allow any body to dust
him on the road. As a Pres'dential
election iu which he is going to be a
candidate is approach'ng, lie is particu
lar in having it understood that he is
the poor man's friend.— Harrisburg

Art Frauds In Paris.
A well-known Paris pioturo dealer
has published an interesting and useful
pamphlet on “Sham Old Masters.” He
says that the commonnes't mode of count
erfeiting an old picture is to coyer anew
one—painted, of course, for the purpose
—with a certain transparent paste,
which when exposed to slight artificial
heat, cracks and-becomes brown. If a
sufficiently venerable tint has not been
produced, the canvass is washed with a
mixture of lamp-black and licorice-juice.
The picture is next exposed for some
hours to the .smoke of a wood fire, and
the loose, soot having been brushed
away, is rubbed here and there with a
rag which has been dipped in very di
lute sulpheric acid. This operation gives
a moldy appearance to those parts
which have been touched. The work is
finally sprinkled by means of a tooth
brush and a hairpin with minute spots
of a solution of sepia of gum water, to
imitate fly-specks, and it is then ready
for the market. Signatures are imitated
by experts who are know as monogram
mistes, and who devote their exclusive
attention to such matters, and one of
these men, who died recently and Was
known to the author of the pamphlet,
confessed to the forgery of no fewer than
11,000 signatures of the Italian masters
alone, and said that he had for years
made a large income by the exercise
of his art.— fit. James Gazette.

TRUE SOLDIERLY GRIT.
Having Passed Through the War, ah Old
Soldier Conquers one Enemy fllore.
Kindling with enthusiasm as he recalled
tho great struggle of twenty years ago,
Captain J. U. Sanford, of Newark,-who
raised Company B of 38d N. J. Zouaves,
and went to'the front with them, said to a
transient companion cue day last summer:
11 Yes, I was in eight of tho-fiercest battUss
of the war; Seven Pines, Malvern Hill,
Savage Sta' ion. Missionary Hidge and
Harrison’s Landing are in the list, i
started to go with Sherman to the sea, Wit
my right leg was shattered by a ball at the
first engagement after the great march be
gan. After the amputation I was taken
twenty live miles and left in a tent at Ring
gold, Ga. A rain came on and my tent was
flooded. Then I was started on my way to
Chattanooga, 280 miles distant. Just try
to imagine the horror of that journey to,a
man in my condition. For years afterward
I was shaken wi'h every exertion. Yes.
the doctors prescribe, as they always will.
when you ask them, but I keep, guy own
doctor now, and he never opens Tils ihouih.
“ A dumb doctor?” exclaimed tb. Cap
tain’s caller. • >
“ Yes, dumb as a mummy, but smart as
lightning; th’Te he i ,” poin ing to a bottle
of DR. DAVID KENNEDY’S FAVORITE
REMEDY standing on a corner shelf, “ I
take that. When lam run down it winds
me up; when I am weak it strengthens me;
when I am ‘ off my food* it gives me an
appetite; when I am excited it quiets me.”

POTASH
lodide of Potassium Is one of the strongest;of the
minerals used in medicine, and lias produced •much
suffering in the world. Taken for a lung time and in
large doses, it dries up the gastric juices; impairs SI
gestion, the stomach refuses food, and the patient de
clines in health and weight. Persons with Blood or
Skin Diseases should be careful liow they take the*#
mineral poisons, as in most instances the effect of them
is to almost permanently impair the constitution.
Swift’s Specific is entirely a vegetable preparation, a ltd
It is easy to convince you of its merit.
