Tho President's Message, which was
aent to Congress on Monday, appetite
in urn in tins issue.
Tho Sentinel of Inst weok contains
n two column nrticlo upon the subject
of blnnks used in tho offices of Pro-
thonotnry nnd Register and Recorder,
for which tho county commissioners
have paw tuoso otlioials. I Ins pay
ment was maao in accordance witu nn
Act pawed April 2u, 18.S9, providing
that tho county shall furniili the sta
tionery &c, for theso offices. This law
Btaneh to-day ns tho law of tho Stnlo,
and will continue to-do so until the
courts shall decide differently, tho
opinion of a Washington county law
yer to tho contrary, notwithstanding
If tl o law is such a pernicious one,
Rep-esentativo Krickhaura should have
pointed out its vicious features, before
ivs liassuKU in hid it'iris .uiiru. n iiu
uttored a word in opposition to tho
bill, other than voting, wo shall bo
clnd to print his tpeech.
Tho opinion is expressed both by
Mr. Snyder and Sir. Campbell, and
by two ot the county commissioners,
that this tempest in a teapot is account
ed for, by tho fact that tho Sentinel
did not print the blanks.
As to tho bonds referred to which
bear tho linpiint of the Republican,
but are said to havo been furnished by
the Ooi.umiiian wo have only to say
that such bonds were never printed at
this othce, never borrowed or bouzbt
bv us from anybody, and that Mr.
Campbell now remembers that they
wero among somo blanks purchased by
him Irom his predecessor, ii. W,
Sterner.
Tho prices paid for the blanks were
not unreasonable, and the basis of
valuation taken w.13 the best obtain
able, being the price list of a firm that
makes a special business of printing
such blanks, from which a liberal dis
count was made by Messrs Campbell
and Snyder Neither of theso gentle
men nor the county Commissioners
havo dono anything in this matter
which invites a suspicion of dishonesty
or unfairness.
HISTOEY BEFEATING ITSELF.
In 1852 tho Democrats swept every
Northern State from Pennsylvania to
California. Only two Northern States
Massachusetts and Vermont voted
for General Scott against General
Pierce, and two Southern States
Kentucky and Tennesson were the
only break in the Democratic sweep
in the south. .Every indication point
ed to a long period ot Democratic sup
remecy, and it could havo been long
maintained had wisdom increased with
power ; but the very cause that gavo
the Democrats their ovewbelming via
tory in 1852, broke them into frag
meats in 1854, gavo them a narrow
minority triumph in 185G and then
doomed them to a quarter of a century
of unbtoken rule by their opponents.
Tho cause of the great Democratic
victory in 1852 was elaveiyj the cause of
tho overthrow of the same party in 1854
was slavery ; and tho cau9o that made
it voiceless in the national government
lor nearly a generation was slavery,
Thero was profound unrest among the
people because oi tho growing power
ot slavery in tbe administration ot our
boasted freo institution, but tho peril
to tho tranquility ot the nation in as
saulting slavery that had the high
sanction of tho Constitution, and tbe
odium cast npon the Abolition acita
tion of tho day, made hundreds of
thousands assent to the Compromise
Measures of 1850 as a finality, hoping
for poaoe and prosperity by an adjust
ment that was expected to end tho dis
turning controversy.
But slavery aggression not only did
notecase when tho people voted
1852 by an exceptional majority, to
end slavery agitation, but it became
bolder and advanced its standard by
the Dred Scott decision and by the
desperate and bloody struggles to en
slave Kansas and Nebraska. Tho lat
ent anti-slavery sentiment was thus
kindled into a flame, and in 1851
over? New England and Northern
State excepting only California lost
by a few hundred voted against th
administration and the party that had
but lately given tho most triumphant
summons to powor ever giveu in any
national contest since the re election
ot Monroe. Stubborn Democratic
States liko Maine, New Hampshire.
Pennsylvania, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa
and Michigan, swung from their Demo
cratio moorings and, with tho singl
exception of Indiana, havo been a stub
born Republican States for tho period
ot a lull generation.
In 1851 when tho profound anti
slavery sentiment asserted itself, the
answer was made that "local issues
had temporarily disrupted parties and
the blind leaders continued to lead
their blind followers until tho dclugo
came. True, local issues were seized
upon in many States and magnified in
to potential importance, but a party
armed in conviction is not thus dis
ruptnd by local questions. It is only
when a great paity assails the convic
tions ot its peoplo that "local issues
can rise to the importance of swinging
such Mates as Virginia, Uhio, Iowa,
.Now lork and JNew Jersey against
tho party just on the threshold of
power by almost unprecedented major
ities. Tho issue that is repeating the revo
lutionary work of tho aUvery issue ot
1854 is tho now vital question of tariff
reform. It had many pretexts in tho
"local issues" to open tho way for
party revolt ; but if there had not been
profound unrest in New England, in
tho Middle States and in tho great
Weet because ot agaressivo mel need
less taxation upon tho necessaries of
life, and tho open prostitution of the
polioy of protection to monopoly
greed, no "local issues couiu navo de
feated a Republican Governor and
Legislature in Ohio, defeated a Repub
lican Governor in Iowa, and elected
Democratic State tickets in Now York
Now Jersey and Virginia by majori
ties which equally surprised tho lead
ers of all parties. And tho revolt of
1889, like the revolt of 1851, will grow
in power and become more and more
revolutionary in every section of tho
Union, until neediest) taxation of tho
people shall bo overthrown, and band
ed monopoly shall cease to havo special
protection at the cost of consumers.
The poople of tho country believo
in tho liberal protection of American
labor, It was first thought by Wash
ington, has been sustaiued by every
Piesident from Washington to Ham
son i and It never will be overthrown
in tho nation unless protectionist lead-,
crs engulf their cause nnd themselves
in tho exacting greed of monopoly.
Massachusetts and Iowa will heartily
irotect tho wntr.es of labor in our tnrill
laws, but taxes employed for protection
mint cease with protection to wages.
with our tnanuiaclurcrs put upon equal
ity with their competitors abroad on tho
question of wages, every dollar of od-
aiuonni tax imposed is simply inexcus
able oppression of tho people. Iowa
anil Massachusetts want cheaticnod
American products without reducing
wages cf labor i tboy want f reo raw
materials ( they want freo coal, free
wool, free iron ore and free ecrap iron
to enable the New England industries
to live, and the farmers of Iowa, with
crushing tariff taxes on everything
they use, oit and wear, and growing
mortgages on their farms, want cheap.

tnem, uut tney must havo thorn j a id
tho recent elections simply emphasize)
tho purposo of both liast and WtBt to
havo honest nnd thorough tax revis
ion and reduced taxes or revolution.
Is is only history repeating itself, and
whether it shall be a brief rebollion or
a sweeping revolution, will depend up
on the leaders of tho party in power.
The Democratic loaders in 1851 learn
ed nothing, forgot nothing, and wero
hopelessly overthrown j what will tho
Republican leaders of 1889 do! His
tory is repeating itself. Times.
Shall Postmaster be Elected.
Mr. Roswell P. Flower announces
his intention to present a bill in Con
gress "relegating the selection of post
masters, custom house officials aiid in
ternal revenue col'ectors to the people
of the vicinage wherein their duties arn
performed. lie maintains that Con
gress should provide for the election of
these officials every four years, and
that the power of the President should
be restricted to removal for cause.
Mr. Flower probably means to pro
pose an amendment of the Constitution
of the United States for tho accom
plishment of the end he seeks. So far
as postmasters are concerned it certain-
lv would be a desirable chance, on
many accounts, if they could be elected
by the peoplo instead of appointed by
the President or Postmaster General.
In all tho towns and villages of the
country tho postmaster is the official
nearest to the people, lie should fully
posses their confidence, and above all
public officers should be acceptable to
the majority of tho citizens. The evil
of the largo and constantly growing
patronage of the President is conctded
and tho scramble for tho post offices is
its very worst feature. It occupies the
time of Senators and Congressmen as
well as ot the Administration, obstructs
tho publio business and is a prolific so.
urco of corrution in politics. At the
lame tuna tho appointing power too
often selects a man objectionable to
tho people for the very reasons that
make htm the choice of the politicians.
uoncressman i lowers proposition
will find favor with the publio, but it
is not likely to be favorably received at
Washington at the present time. How
ever, it is a subject on which the people
need educating and Mr. Flower s eff
orts will not be wasted. National

Oswego, Kansas, November 25. A
train robbery of extraordinary boldness
was uccmplished in tho Choctaw Nation
Indian Territory, last night. The
Missouri, Kansas and Texas exp.ess
train north bound for St. Louis, was
held on Pryor Creek, near Perry Stati
on, and the express cariobbed of about
$50,000. Tho robbers displayed great
coolness, and went about their work
in such a familiar manner as to con
vince the trainmen that they were old
timo professionals.
1 ho road agents were only two in
number. They had concua-ed them
selves in a clump of bushes near tbe
water tank on Pryor Creek, and when
the train stopped for water tbey boarded
tbe engiuc, one on each side, and,
covering tho astounded engineer and
li reman with their revolvers, explained
to them their design of robbing the
train. One of tho robbors climbed into
the tender, and from that point of van
tago was master of tho engine.
Ihe messenger in the express oar was
then compelled to open the safo and
hand up its contents, amounting to
nearly $50,000.

Thirty-five years ago at
Balaklava the charge of tho Light Bri
gade,made imiuortal byTennyBon, took
plats-1. Out of the GOO men who went
intolhat insmeubal charge but 198 came
back to tell the tale. A roster is kept
of those now living who wero members
of the Light brigade, and, according to
latest accounts, there are but twenty
rne nanus on the list. Of theBe, nine
teen are in England and two in the
United States. The latter are Ceptain
Thomas Morlcy, who is connected with
the Army Mtdtcal Department at
Washington, and Captain Victor Rob
oert Gurney, who re-ides in this city.
A reporter called at No. 238 East
Eighty.fourth street this morning and
found the gil'ant old soldier at homo.
Captain Gurnev is now (about 60 years
old. tie raid the great charge Is ns
fresh in his meinorv as though it ou
cured yesterday. He was asked:
"Was the order ever given that re
sulted in tho chargel"
"It waj. but the diy was one of
blunders. Lord Riglao, who was com
mander-in-ehief, gave an order that the
enemy must be prevented trom taking
away tuo guns which ttiey had captur
ed jn the m -rning. 1 ho intantry, tin
dor tho D.ike of Cambridge, did not
come up as was i xpected, and a second
order, confirm ilory of the first, was sent
over by the commarder-in-chief. It
was carried by Captain Nolan, Lord
Raglan's orderly, who bandied words
with Lord Lucan about the advance,
the latler claiming that it w.is absurd,
while Nolan, who was a hol-lieaded
Irishman, advhed him to inovo hi
command forward.
"Lucan finally gave tho command
'Charge!' and away tho troops went,
but took the left ini-tea-l of tho right
ravine. 1 his error was noticed by
Nolan, who rushed to the head of the
flying troopers and endeavored to have
them alter their course, but was unable
to do bo, as the tumult drowned his
vnic. On they rushed, while the
juissians peppered them with grape
arid canister.
"After passing tbe redoubt they were
almost annihilated and about three
thousand cavalry were ttationtd at the
rear ready to slaughter what remained
of the phu-ky band; but, through being
