Tammnny Unit's l'oslllen.
Tammany UftU has chosen te put n
local ticket in tlie field without cetnbina
tien with tire ether Democratic orgnufoi ergnufoi orgnufei
ttotiH ei" New Yerk clly( and tlie course
is disapproved by seme Dcmecrnta ns
tending te hurt t.'ie natlerml ticket. It
should have no such tendency, imt In
fact Uie opposite influence. Tlie Dcmo Dcme Dcmo
cmtle organiRitiens being united In the
. support of Clcvelntid, the splitting of
their rete en tlie local ticket should
rather' increase the total vete brought
tout- for tlie natlepal ticket It is said
that there may l trading with the Re.
publicans of Dcroecratlo votesforUIalue
for Bepubiican votes for the Democratic
local tickets ; and perhaps there may be
such an effect.
But Democrats who critlcite Tuni
many JJall for pieenting her own
candidates for the local offices should
remerabTlliat the very cavalier treat
ment the delegates rccelvetl in the
national convention does net permit
outsiders te claim much voice in advis
Inn the organization us te its policy,
after it has Riven la its adhesion te the
national ticket nominated at Chicago.
The position taken there was that
Tammany Hall w.13 net of 'much cense cense cense
quonce anyway; and if its leaders
cheese new te show just hew many
votes they command, they are certainly
excusable for taking this very certain
way of testing the disputed weight and
consequence of thelr oiganizatien. Tlie
fact is that If Tununniiy Hall is a re
spectable power, she as uet treated with
proper consideration In the national
convention ; and these who se treated
nor should net complain of the opper
tnnity she proposes te give te show just
what she amounts te.
Meclrne of Legal Practice.
The Philadelphia Recerd has divoted
considerable of its npace recently te
showing that the profits derived from
the legal profession in the Quaker City
have been steadily en the wane for some
time past. As compared with a few
years age, business at the bar has fallen
off lifty percent., while during the same
period tl) accessions te the lur have
been in about the same ratio.
One of the chief cu3?s of th" dec 1
denee in fees at the Philadelphia bar is
the CJtabllshmeut of orphan's eeur's arid
trust and safe depeiit ceinpanie-i. The
judges of the former have fixed sa'arins,
for which they attend te decedents'
estates, taking from the lawyers tiie fat
plums that used te fall into their laps
under the old rvsrjwe. Then, te3, the
practice IsuecetningVfrjOJtm e n -unung
wealthy Phlladelpnians of .vp dating
the large trust com- antes of tV city ss
executers, owing te their recognized
solidity and the fact- that Ilia length f
their exUt?uee Is practically j iidhuvte t.
ITere, again, the fee? a3 tivecuMr.3 arr
alienated from the members of the bar,
forming a serious diminution of their
Incomes.
Hut perhaps, after all, the bed-rock
truth about the decrease in leral business
is that It Is due te Increasing distaste for
litigation. Tima was when plucky
clteuts, who would spend their last del
lar te win a law suit, were as thick as
leaves In Vallambreaa. Te day the em
of compromise appears te have set In.
Cliente who have cases as geed as old
wheat will compromise d ffrr?nc'f
rather than invoke the law.1 Ttie halcyon
days for lawyers were these that followed
thopmicef 1873, though much of the
legal fruit at that time was only an in
cldent of the financial distress of the
time. The straightened money market
caused mortgage holders te be
anxious te realize en their investments,
and it the first interest payment wan nut
promptly made, suit was brought in
stauter. In the present day the situation
Is radically different. The mertgagee is
glad te permit the mortgager te retain
his money m long as possible, knowing
that whenever he wishes the money Le
can obtain it by a transfer te these who
have in plenty money that Is seeking
au investment. In these transfers a
lawyer's intervention is scarcely neces
aary.and therefore no chanee for fees is
presented.
These, however, who feel impelled te
the study of the law by a guanine love
for It, should net permit themselves te
be discouraged by tlie outlook piesented.
There is room in the profession fei
brainy, earnest workers, who will be
willing for a time te burn the ruhlniglil
oil without compensation. Let them
keep en In the even tenor of their way,
undismayed by early reverses, and if
they have the right stuff in them their
success must come some day.
A. Facter In the Political JtatUe.
The depression in business is likely te
be the factor In the situation that will
decide the political battle. Certainly it
will have a very great InQuence upon it.
Experience shows that the party in
power feats the adv.iutage and takes
the blame for the existing! condi
tion of business. It Is next te im
possible te dislodge a party while
work is plenty and wages are geed.
The contentment of the people with their
material condition is a guarantee te the
governing politician of his coritiuuance
in place. Leuis Napeleon maintained
his powers iu Trance by glviug its paople
employment ; and was ferced into his
disastrous war by the prosjure of the
need upon liira te check discontent at
prostrated industry. Mr. lllalne, when
betook held of Garfleld'aadmlnls'rat!..n,
had the same idea as te the method of re

Uniting Yultnrcs.
We am net sura that ,we knew the
nnmeaef all the candidates for president,
oref alt the political parties that have
presented candidate. The " American
Political Alliance," however, is the last
te report, with a candidate from Penn
sylvania, Air. I'tlswerth, and a
national headquarters Just opened
en llread street, Philadelphia
Tlie Idea of the Alliance is that
uone but Americans should Iks put
en gusud ; u remark which is quite
familiar te in as the foundation stone of
the old Kuuw Nothing party. That
expired when the Republican party get
Inte full blast, and possibly is revived
new te inherit the fixtures and geed
will of that concern new sup
nosed te be en its dying legs.
We knew no ether reason for the presp u
tatlen at this time of a presidential
Knew Nothing candidate. The party
in charge of the scheme of course expect
no electoral voles this time; but they
must see some advantage in the future
in getting themselves ready for a possible
political inheritance.
There will be enough organizitlena In
existence te claim the Republican body
when it is dead. They sit as vultures en
the surrounding tree tops, awaiting the
death nit t te of the sick beast, ever
whose remains they expect te be shortly
contending. TheKuew Nothing, the Pro
hibitionists, the Female Suffragists, and
the representatives of all the ether ideas
that have vitality enough te aspire te a
presidential ticket, will Dght desperately
with each ether ever the Republican In
herit.ince, and possibly the Knew
Nethiug beast it swallowed may swallow
it en the next turn.

"The real oeotiiot is net Iwtwecu the

whether a change of administration is pe

isaue is net whether yen will ohange the

The real struggle by these new in power
is net te ascertain aud obey the will of the

A curious fe.ihir.' of a oueo iuip.rt tut
branch of trade in St. Paul, Minn., is the
fact that the etit'ie "catch" of bufVile

catch was 10 OUO. In 1831 the year after
the Northern I'.U'tle was epnel through

let iu the hide hunters and as the buffalo
happened te be south of the line,
aud within reaehmg distance of the
Missouri aud transportation, the output
was large. Thousands upon thousands
were killed whose hides ware never

majority furnished euly a few pound of

A large audience witursscd the first,
prcbcntatieu in this uity of G, R. Simms'
spectacular melodrama, "The Remany
Rye." It was received with high favor
by the audience, who puuetuated lta pro
gress by frequent outbursts of applanse.
There is little iu tha play that will survive
mere than an ephemeral popularity. It
seems te have been constructed under the
directions of the stage artisr.an meet of the
dialegue appears te have been subordinated
te the scenic development. As put upon
the stage by the Brooks & Dicksen com
pany, it is a very clever parforruance. The
best possible uuder the circumstances is
dene with thu limited spaoe en the stage,
and at two or three points the sjonery was
strikingly rcalistie, notably iu tne case of
Craigsuest, Uui river Thames, and the
cellar of the Black Uieft. ,
The characters of the drama were fairly
well prosentcd. Mr. O. Handyside mnde
a capable Jack llearnt, while Mr. Jeseph
V. Oonyers was a most exoellent Jsvp
hnitelt. Mine Neuville, in the dual parts)
of hwmi Lee and Jether bttplen, scored a
decided hit, her noting iu the cellar of the
Black Creft showing very superior
capacity. Miss Ratie Jiaker, made a fair
Gertie JfeeLttt, the part seeming te requtre
mere animation than civen it. Mr. W. T.
JoluiBen, as Jee dkcltlt, essayed the
character of the aged reprebatu success
fully. The bal'itice of the support ranged
from fair te middling. The same play
will bn produced ngaiu this evening, when
another large audience will doubtless be
present,

An alarm of lire, struck from box 10,
shortly be fore six o'clock this morning,
brought out the tire department. The Urn
was iu the yard of Geerge M. Bleinman &
Ce., corner of Beaver and Miilliu streets,
and was a tridlng nffalr. Twe empty
varnish .barrels' and a few boxes were
scorched. The tire is believed te have io ie io
sulted from spontaneous combustion.
Chief Hewon requests the Intkm.iukn
can te eall the attontieu of these having
keys te be careful when striking thu alarm,
te pull the lever down only once and
then te clese the deer. This morning the
party striking the alarm did net under
stand his business, an! the oenseqiiouco
was the tire alarm en the truek house
struek irregularly.
Anether audtpcrhaps the mere probable
theory of thu tire is that It was caused by
some effil that had been thrown into the
yard in the eveuing after thu boiling of oil
during tha day.
