BATUBOAY WVItNtNO, JULY jB, 1UU4. k J)fcUrllen They Would Oct. Mr. Wftttersen is early in tlie Held at Chicago, with the ene idea te persuade the convention te stick te the " tiirlu" for revenue only," phrnse in lta resolu tions, which he was permitted te slip Inte the last platform, without exciting the attention of the delegates te the fact that it was n departure from old Demo cratic doctrlne. Mr. Watterseii is better known and weighed new than he was when he undertook successfully totnaken new Domeoratic deliverance en the tariff question, and all the inllu nee he at present tiosseases will net Ret the party very far en the read he wants it te travel. It is semewhat awkward, it is true, for the convention at Chicago te modify the declaration of its prodocos predocos prodecos or,and charge it with the error it made. Mr. Watterseu nnd Mr. Morrison and the ether delegates who think the tariff is a great issue new, and that free trade is the proper Democratic policy, will have a great advantage in press lng their views upon the cenven tien in the fact that tliey only ask it te repeat the declaration of the last national convention, for a tariff for revenue only. That declaration has never since been acted en by the party, nnd at the present session of Congress even Mr. Morrison and his friends re pudiated It, iu preparing and pressing a tariff bill which did prutend te lay a tin iff for revenue only. It was a horizontal reduction of the present tariff that they proposed, and no ene denies that it h.is been adjusted with a view te protection quite as much as te revenue. If the Chicago convention concludes that tariff declarations in national platforms are tncauingless and that the party will net be bound te make a tariif for rovenue only, hereafter any mere than heretofore, because the party convention has de clared for It, it may renew the deciara tleu for a tariff for rovenue only. Hut everyone will understand that the party does net mean te lay a tariff for revenue only, as seen us It gets Inte power. It simply meaus that a tariff for revenue only will be a geed thing In the future, when the ceuutry Is ready for it, and that when that time comes the Deme cratlc party will enact It. Tlu, is a very Innocent meaning, mid ene that will disturb nobody. It seem3 passing strange that these se called free traders will persist iu exert Ing thomselvcs se violently In declatna tlen. when they really waut te de se little, as was shown when they perfected the Morrison bill as the thing they wanted te de. If they really wanted .1 tariff for rovenue right oft, as they loudly pretend, they certainly would have proposed te lower the duties en manufactures of iron, cotton, wool, silk and material of every kind, se as te introduce the largest quantity, te pro pre duco the largest revenue. They weie net crazy enough te propose any such immediate demonstration of their politi cal principles. They proposed te gut along te this end gradual! ; which was wise. And if they were consistently wise they would ask from the Chicago convention a declaration that at some future period it believed that the interest of the country would demand a tariff for revenue only, but that its present; need was still for a revenue tariff adjusted te give fair pro tection te the home manufactories that have been festered thus far by the pre tective policy of all parties that have held power in this ceuutry ; and such a sensible declaration they would get. -- fc.i ilium's Magnanimity. The New Yerk Sun, we fear, lias a very narrow-minded editor. There never was a mero pointed indication of little ness, that a fifth class country editor might have been expected te show, than was exhibited by the Sm in classing Gov. Cleveland down at the feet of a list of presidential candidates, as one who might possibly carry New Yeik. It is the opinion of every uupn judiccd mind that Gov. Cleveland would be at least as strong In New Yeik as any ether possi ble candidateand most persons probably think he will be the strongest man iu luH own state that can be named for tint presidency. The Sun did itself little credit in failing se far te give Gov Cleveland his just duu ; and failing, tee, without showing any ground whatever for the belicf it had, or pretended te have, that was se diffeieut from that of every 0110 else. Jt has long held spite against the gov ernor, because its editor did net think he had been treated witli the distin guished consideration te which lie way entitled, in the matter of some recem mendatieus he had made. His attitude new siiews that If the governor did alight him, he estimated him at lib face value. It is ically astounding often, when we come across noted men, te rind hew very small is their stature ; and this is as tiue of editors as of any ether class. They have curtain gaudy qualities which thrust thorn into prominence, helped by plenty of luck nnd some eulld merit concealed somewhoro in their breeches. The edi tor of a great newspaper has a rellected greatness which it is net dilllcult for him te keep up nnd stimulate with a ineder ate amount of real ability nnd an aiclil. tectural Bklll with words. Hut lie need net be a great mau, and very seldom is. Hrether Watterson, for instance, makes a wonderful amount of noise; but probably there is no man in the country whose Judgment Is less reliable. Mr. Dana, of the Sim, in a geed deal m mero of a fellow, and If lie had a reason nble degree of magnanimity about liim, might aspire te be deemed a great editor at least; but a man who thinks that Gov. Cleveland would be a light-weight in his own Btate in the presidential race Is net redeemed even by Unsoundness of conclusion which he evinces in declaring Sain Itaudall te be Ida first favorite. The Vete or the Perter JI1II. The president, In vetoing tlie FiVt Jehn Perter bill is said te have sur rendered hls views te these of his cabinet, and the goneraj geed sense he lias exhibited supports this theory, Tlie young mau Lincoln wanted the bill vetoed because his father had dismissed Perter. Chandler was of the saiue opinion, through genera! "cussedness." Hrewster, attorney general, supported the veto in a long opinion, which gives ovldence that his longdlsslpatien hasnt length produced its natural consequence in the softening or his brain. The claim lie sustains is that the bill is unconstitutional in that It makes an elllce, te be idled by a certain elllcer, In derogation of the president's piivilege te select his appointees ; or, If it does net direct hut simply authorizes the appoint ment of Perter, the bill is bad because it does net effect anything. Mr. Ham ster may be right iu assuming tliata bill which Is wholly ineffective should be vetoed ; but lie can hardly convince anyone that a bill which clothes the presi dent with authority te de an act, which lie did net have authority te de before is Ineitective; this is just what the Perter bill did. It authorized the ptesl dent te restore Perter te hiseommisslen. It did net direct him te de se ; he might have refused, ami have left the appoint ment te his Domeoratic successor. Perter's opponents are doubtless In wholesome fear of a Democratic presi dent, else they would have been conteu1 witli the approval of the bill and a failure te use its authority. The bill can only lie deemed ineffective en the thejry that the president is clothed with autheiity te revoke the dismissal of Perter and restore him te his station. That seems te us te lie a sound conclusion, despite the assertion that the llnirtP action taken en court martial Judgments is irreversible. It does net seem re.is mable te held that the president has no power te set aside a court mai tial verdict after he has ap proved it ; se as te make irrevocable an Injustice once penetrated. The next president should, as one of his llrst acts, restore Pltz Jehn Perter te his cemmis slen, and let the courts decide the ques tion of his power te de se, if anyone challenges the act.

The conference oeiuinitteo 011 the river mid hnrber hill was the only bill which was Dually ngteul upon and passed ever te tlie eniollment clerk for preparation for tlie prexuleut.

Ihose who have had chaise of this uioasute claim that it has been prepared with a greater ilcgice of care and intelligent discrimination than any similar bill for many years; that ap propriations have been made only iu cases nnd for localities whero commercial Interests would be promoted, and whero itnpornlive public interests demanded an iutellik'eut expenditure of public money, mid that tlie appropriation for sttc uus net navigable have been studiously exchidul In ion-of this unusual care, it is claimed hy the friends of the bill, and of the (act that no appropriation was undo last year ter rivers and harbors, that the president is net likely te veto the bill. When the Heuse was net etigngid In considering 'onfereiice report en appre priatien hills, the friends of tlie Mexican pension bill occupied the tl or with that measure, but all efforts te obtain a nle, or oeueuiiing in tlie Nutate ii'iiondmeuts, were frustrated hy lllthus'.eriiig en the put Of lt opponent.

With the exception of the Sen ate amendment appropriating ISMI.OOO for the Nte.1r.14u 111 water way project, an agreement was reached en the entire bill.

Reviewing all the facts in tlie case by the Iic.ht of much evi deuce net obtainable at the original court martial, these roviewing efliccrs found uet merely that General Perter was innocent of the grave charges made against him, but that his prudence, bravery and soldieiy skill had saved tlie Union army from a great disaster. General Grant, after ruatiy j cars of acknowledged prejudice, founded upon misunderstanding, frankly aud mau fully admitted his tnistaVe aud did all that was iu bis power te correct the original wrong. The vindication thus wen by Gen. Perter.aud Mealed by Preideut Arthur him helf.camibt be recalled uew. The oue thing te be added was repiratteu by the nation for 1 s own t;(j as much as for that of General Perter. The Senate and Heuse passed the hill for his restoration te the army, and President Arthur has seen fit te veto it. Such action is wholly illogical. It fellows upon Prcsideut Arthur's own previous action, which nrnctictllv declared Ueneral Pert, r Innocent, aud, ou the part of the nation, continues the rnimshmeut of an innocent man. The president cannot cjruplaiti, titidei tliese circumstances, if the vete is ascribed te petty political motives, which have been the chief obstacles Geucral Perter has had te meet during the lest twenty years. Hut this is uet the end or the matter, in the very nature of the case the agitation must go ou until Oeueral Perter is restered te the army or has passed away where neither honors uer political spite.1 nor army jeal ousies can atfeet him.

Ou the night of June ;i0, a construction train ou the Kitisas City & Council Uliiils ree, with fifty men ou beard, went through a bridge ever Grand river, near Cuuiugham, Me.

Tiie bodies of Abrah 1111 Webb, of Cuu uiugbam, and Jehn Leng, of Sumner, have net been rocevcred. Threo unidenti fied bodies have been recovered by divers. The portion of the bridge which gave way represents the contre span, and was about 100 feet long aud 40 feet abeve tlie water. The structure is what is called false work. The cause of the accident has uet been fully established. The ougiueor was backing the train en the bridge and was chucking its speed iu oider te ciess safely, and the whele train was brought almost te a standstill iu the oeutro of the structure. When extra steam was put en the frail bridge began te totter ami seen sank under the train's weight.
