Some et the apologists for the anti anti anti oleemargarlne law which h.13 just p.isscil the Heuse of Representatives, undertake te justify it upon the ground that " the bill docs net affect the manufacture or sale of oleomargarine as such, but when it !s mixed with any ether substances and sold as butter it is subjected te u tnx of live cents per pound." Tiie measure which has been adopted by one Heuse of Con gress admits of no such construction, neither by the term3 in which it is drawn nor by the avowed motives et these who have pressed it te passage. They aimed at oleomargarine, by which they meant te describe everything " made in imitation or semblance of butter"; and no matter whether it purports te be butter or what it really is. Theie can be no reasonable objection te requiring by law that oleo margarine shall be bold as such, mid that its sale for butter shall be aueffense. But there is no mere occasion nor justifi cation for this than for the regulation by federal law of all ether imitations. We have imitation teas and cedecs, imitation sugars and candies, shoddy cloths and bogus silks, veneered weeds and colored marbles, doctored wines and diluted drugs, and a thousand ether things that are net what they seem. Geed meials and geed health require regulation of them just as much as they require new laws for the protection of butter and the preven tion of its imitation. But the congres sional law is passed te prevent competi tion of one manufactured domestic article for another, and this is its essential vice. This was the purpose of the bill, and this is its object in clear distinct teirua. If it did net achieve this purpose the dairjmen would netcarea farthiug for it. The law lajs a tax of 5 cents a pound en " all oleomarga rine manufactured or ordered," brthln prescribing a penalty " for the purchase or reception for fa.i!e of oleomargarine net branded or stamped according te law." If te prevent deception was Us only aim, this last clause would be ample ; but in addi tion this outrageous and exorbitant tax is laid en all substances made "of oleomarga rine, oleo, oleomargarine oil, butterine, lanline, suene and neutral; all nilxtuies and compounds of eleiuarcarine: oleo. ij. oleomargarine oil, butteiine.lardliie, snene and neutral ; all lard extracts and tallow- extracts, and all mixtures and compounds of tallow, beef fat, suet, lard, lard oil, veg etable oil, annotte aud ether coloring mat ter, intestinal fat and offal fat made in imitation or semblance of butter, or, when se made, calculated or intended te be sold as butter or for butter." And yet this very law protects the frauds of the dairymen themselves when itdellnes butter te be butter, even " vvUh additional coloring matter I" They may make any compound they please of milk and annotte, carrots or yellow paint ; and it is " but t?r,"as defined by law. The skim-milk statesman must go. Clese te It. Henry G. Davis, who is entertaiuing the pre3ident at Deer Park, came very near being as close te Mr. Cleveland officially as he new is socially. After Mr. Cleveland had been nominated nnd his friends controlling the national convention had paused te leek about for a man for second place, there were three names prominent iu the minds and en the tongues of the three or four sc ire persons who met and ceunselled en that subject. These names were "William F. Vilas, Thes. A. Hendricks and Henry G. Davis. The dtecussieu settled down te a choice between Hendricks and Davis, and by a narrow margin the decision was for Hen dricks. Twe considerations may have in fluenced enough minds te determine the selection. Davis' state of "West Virginia was considered safely Democratic in any event ; his social and business relations with his son-in-law, Stephen B. Elkins, Blaine's manager, weakened him with some Democrats. Had Davis been nominated, hewever, in stead.'of Hendricks, hemight net have been elected ; and It is seldom the candidate of a party for vice president is defeated, and its nominee for president is chosen. The trout fishing en ex-Seuater Davis' Deer Park place is excellent, and even a president could net find a pleasauter place iui a uoneymeon, Tell the Truth. ii6 n?BUI,c Wrty of this county has dared and endured a geed many things in times past; and it has suffered in re,mt ' tlen and character, if net in the less of rotes, by scandals from UlcU u mero sltlve organization would have felt a ne cessity te vindicate itself. in Vlew of this It is hardly te be exacted that any furttier Investigation will be made of the fraud and corruption practiced at the last primary here nnd which talnta the certificate of nearly every nominee. AVhlle these practices provallediecause there was no law te punish thenar even while the constitutionality of the ftatute passed te reeulale thsm vyn. Sa doubt, there might have been , etae Shadow of exnlannilnn for fliMi- -.IVa 2SrT!!?, but u,!s " Primary was ISLf T0 lhe hee,s of a be;eiu :,; Xetcfiu;uTneclaurmI,,g lta a ..'" . he elections wever H WmvrMedlHInjuUhedby a degree of unblushing corruption and fraud never ex perienced even here before. Beth sides admit it; neither claims exemption; each pleads the mere extensive and mero effect ive crooked work en the part of the ether. Twe well defined instances undeveloped, either of which ought te suffice for the foundation et criminal preceedlngs.whethtr for punishment of the offenders ur v In dication of the accused. Dr. Hoe Hee buck, cx-scnater and aspirant for Con gress, has accused himself , and Iwlng con fronted with ills own alleged testimony is in a position where, if he fails te bring a libel suit, lie confesses his guilt. 'evv, en the ether side, a reputable newsp,tnr, with a responsible editor, charges specific frauds upon ene of the election beards, nud supports the allegation with a i-hh-i rune case of testimony. It will net cost the two sides te thii con troversy one-tenth at much te investigate these charges as It did te run their candi dates ; and the organization itself can de I tat far less cost than it iucuri?d te held the election. It seems te be plain enough that the functions of the return judges cannot be terminated by the proclamation of their president. It remains te be seen what a smirched party will de about it. Mr Manning's Hcdgnatleu. The correspondence between Mi. Man ning and Mr. Cle eland does great credit te them both. Mr. Manning shows him self actuated by a very high sense of public duty, a bread conception of the respousi respeusi bilities of ills otlice and loyal attachment te his chief. Mr. Cleveland sets proper store upon the ability of his minister of finance ; and he shows only due regard for the in terests of the country and the success of his administration when he asks Mr. Manning te take leave of alienee and de fer his resignation, until u reasonable lapse of time and cbauge et circumstances will show mere clearly whether or net it is necessary. Mr. Manning's career as a cabinet offi cer lias been a most agreeable surprise, lie was accepted by the country .is essentially the politician of the council. His career had been that of au astute political mana ger, and while the Democracy generally knew his worth and recognized tli.it bread statesmanship was entirely consistent with adroit management, many ele ments of Mr. Cleveland's. supKrters viewed Mr. Manning's apiwintment with uudisguind alarm. The Philadelphia ltr. enl, vv hose frankness is nearly itlu-uvs ad mirable, while its judgment of men is often wreugaud its prejudices uncontrolled, d' d' neunced Mr. Manning most savagely and declared that for the president te associate him with his cabinet would be like veutui ing upon a swim girdled w ith g is pipe. Mr. Manning very seen dUipueiuted his adversaries nnd silenced his critics. He has nlike satisfied the country and the De mocracy. His administration of the de partment has been eminently successful ; and he has organized it w ith efficient men of the party te which the president sajs he and his secretary belong. Because of such organization his leave et absence may be taken without disturbance much mere safely than a successor could be appointed. It is a noteworthy fact that eiiiltieutelmrcb men or model Ufa attain the greater lon gevity.

Mere Is material for a master's hand , here within tue sound or my voice and within the rauge of my visleu have been enacted chapters In the early hi-tery of our colonies, which gave Kphrala a fame In the infant republic, such as she has never approximated since. Here, long before the war for independence was a nursery el piety and learning that scarcely had ILs equal iu the land.

In fict, there are tee many luxiks printed. The lucubratiens of any brain, however Immature, are deemed proper for publication, ir the work w 111 sell. This cemmerclil view or book-making Is becoming very disgusting te all true literary minds and its increase In the past tow years has tnen watched with no little concern.

It was net ditncult te sur mise the kind or book that Uen. Legan would produce, when the character or his nelitlcal speeches lu recent campaigns were remem bered. Ne mero violent "bloody-shirt" sbrieker has taken the stump for the Hopub Hepub licau cause than our soldier author. The con tinuity w Ith which he rang the changes en the dangers that would result te the country from Democratic ascendency are w ell remem bered in the campalgu that ended In his ills, cemtlture. The tact that the people took no stock In his arguments, the manifest eonfl eenfl eonfl f'euce that the public have shown In Jlr. Cleveland's administration, would have been a warning ten reasonable man that the sec sec tietial Ksne has been eliminated from Amer-i.-an peliUcs. - et, in Mr. Legin's book, this is the whole burden of the story. The lioek will, therefore, have little evil except from the curious raider, desirous el knowing the kind of book se uuilinchlug an einnv or Lindley Murray could produce, or ireiu lujligiiaut Republican-, who are all tee eiger te swallow any theory which tends te luint the great error el these who seceded Irem the l n en in blacker colors. Mr. Lo Le gan makes the great blunder of laying down bis conclusion and then attempting te build up premises te suit. Me starts out te lind " a great conspiracy " dating with the flrst discussion of slavery and the tariiT lu the earliest Ceugresses Through the most harmless remarks or men long dead In the earlier stages or the country's progress, his eagle eje detects the beginning of a treason able conspiracy that ended In the rebellion. It Is this Jaundiced view that makes the whole book Illogical aud absurd. In his view the " conspiracy began In 172 when there were 2,000,01)0 whites and e00,000 blacks lu the country." He mixes up with It Jetterson, oneor the most pronounced op ponents or slavery, because he was success iul In negotiating the cession rrem France or the " t oleny or Louisiana," the author kuewiug little and caring less for the bread statesmanship Involved In that move. Through the "Missouri Compromise " aud theUritl acts of ls21 aud lsjs, Mr. Legan can descry the same fell designs of Southern leaders te destroy the Cnlen whenever an opportunity -was allorded. In all the free trado-pretectlou disputations, m every publ'c act of Jehn C. Calhoun, it is claimed that the secession euu was growing and its ripening Inte fruitaje was only a question or time.

Hut In the heai or the times with momentous questions star ing them iu the face, with the future all unfolded, it Is wrong te assume that they saw clearly all that was going te happen and trussed their acts and words accordingly. Mr. Legan Is apparently unable te rise te the dignity of assuming that theso whom he con demns as couspiraters acted from honest motives. If thosame style of critiUsui was uirecieu agamsi .vir. Legan's career, hew would he be found ? Fer it has net et been forgotten that he was ene or the most violent slavery men in the Illinois legislature shortly befere the war, at a time when the Sucker state led all its sister commonwealths in its hostility te the colored man. The most interesting parts of Mr. Legau's book are where he Introduces) the language or the men who meulded the events or their time. The great debate between Lincoln aud Douglas makes Intensely In teresting readiug for theso te whom the war is only a cruel memory. Tue correspondence aud legislation that preceded the ltebellien Is also el interest, but Mr. Legan has net been the llrst te givelt te the world. As might be expected, the author's estimate of Mr. Iluchauau is very belittling, proving that he had net read with preilt Curtis' life or the sage or Wheatland. As the work draws en te a conclusion, it grows positively humorous. Listen te this display of the exuberance et Loganeso theught: "Fer awhile, with chastened spirit, the reconstructed Seuth soemed te re re re concile itself In geed faith te the legitimate results el the war, and all went well, llut tlmeand peace seen obliterate the lessens and the memories or war. And It was net very long utter the ltebellien tad ceased, and the old issues upon which it was fought had disappeared from the arena or National poll tics, when Its old leaders and their successors began slowly, carefully and systematically te relay the tumbled-down, ruined founda tions aud walls of the Lest Cause a w erk In which, unfortunately, they were tee well aided by the mistaken clemency and magna nimity of the Itepublican party, In hastily re moving the political disabilities of these leaders." If Mr. Legan has any presidential aspira tions, this thought here presented should forever sottle them, for a narrower view of the conduct of the Southern leaders since the war could net be taken. Of course the author defends the stupendous crime of 1S76, where by Samuel J. Tildeii was defrauded or the presldoney. Ilringing his narrative down te the Cleveland administration, he asks "What next?" Let us all fervently piay that this inquiry does net mean a second volume of the twaddle that Is contained In the 810 iiages devoted te "The Great Conspiracy." Tin: misi:uaiil,i: most.
