THE railroads in order to scalp
the scalpers, have bit upon a plan of
special rates to conventions and other
bodies during the coming season which
will, probably, in a great measure
block their busineas in its most profit
able season. The plan is the requir
ing of full fare from delegations going
to the conventions, ami one-quarter
fare on their return, on the prcaenta
tion of attostcd certificate at the Com
panies' offices.

LAST week excitement ran high in
financial circles in New York, by the
failure of the Marine National Rank.
This created a distrust that soon
brought its fruits, and the firtn of
A Ward, bankers, were forced
to suspend, and have since assigned.
Gen. Grant is the head of the firm,
and is greatly worried over the affair,
r" for which he is probably not person
ally responsible, his partner being the
jSt business manager. The shortage of
accounts, it is said, will reach
. $<1,000,000.

sentiments of the great ma*.' of the
American people, ami i* one bright
spot in the desert of a [xr-onal ambi- ,
tiou that would ruin Democratic proi- i
p Tts of victory this fall. Carlisle,
Morrison and NVatterson, the griat
free trade triiiiuviiate, would place
the Dcni'K"ratic party on the defensive
and in a fabe position, on the eve of a
great national conflict That means
defeat. That they love the Democrat-
I ic party we doubt not; "Not that i loved
!Cn *ar less, but Rome more," is their
motto, as it was Brutus' defense after
having plunged the dagger into the
heart of his friend Csesar. Cie*ar, in
the present instance, is the Democratic
I party, Roa> is (.'arlisle, Morrison ami
Watterson. Mr. Randall character- 1
ieed the hill a* a confession on the
part of its authors of their inability
to grapple with an intricate question. :
Buch no doubt is the fact, but the in
competence of the so-called tariff re
formers should not be saddled on the
Democratic party.
Morrison flatly ami squarley refused
to allow amendments to be mado en
his bill, and then on the eve of his de
feat taunted Mr. Itandall and his fol
lowers with the challenge "if you
have the power to defeat this bill, you
have the power to amend it." Morri
son knew when he uttered these words
that it was impossible to amend the ,
bill at that time, as the Republicans ,
would have voted with the Morrison
people. In this he waa unfair, nay, '
with the knowledge of the facts be '
was dishonest, and resorted to ths 1
tricks of a ward politician. That '
there should be a "reform'' of existing '
tariff laws the most ultra protectionist 1
will admit, and on that point all agree, j

the <|iu<tioii of combinations or puol

Tho balance of |ow.-r held by lt>e

more svnguini of Blaine's supporters
figure with arv degree of sccuranev

quite sufficient to give the nornir a'ion
to the ''Plumed Knight."
Both Arthur and Itlaine are shrewd
politicians. They understand moat
thoroughly tho art of manipulating
political convention*. t.rcek will met
tifeek at Chicago in the per-on* of lbee

t>e a tug of war in the republican nation

interest that of the week's battle be

may not the shrewdness of th*e princi
I*l contestants suggest to them the
propriety of "pooling their iaaue" in
stead of permitting the field to utilize
the strength of the weaker for the I.one
fit of one of the minor Candida tee f
Arthur and Blame between them con
trol three fourths of the convention.
There has been no such bitterness in
their rivalry as to preclude a combina
tion which would l>e mutually advert
tagoua. True, it ia not likely that Treai
dent Aruhur would accept office under
Blaine, hut as he ia a natural horn
politician and two young to retire alto
gether from public life he might le
willing to become "the power Isehind
the throne greater than the throoe it
self," As for Blaine it ia not to be
doubted for a moment that if he find*
that bis play for the principal stakes is
to loae he would lie willing to repeat
with Arthur or any other promising
candidate the bargain he made with
Oerflold. Stranger things have happen

tween Arthur and Rlaine.

i t'l-n hundred acres of land, including
the historic q*.t ujtoii which Washing
ton s army *a eticampcii at \ alley
Forge, le pure based and converted
into a national park.
The idea is a very pretty one, but
not nearly a- pretty a* the sum it
would cot the government Iw-fore the
spcculutora would realise the full
amount of profit that would be afford
ed by the picturesque and patriotic
job. Ry the time those who had it in
charge would get out all that was in
it. the ellonstone park swindle, as a
piece of intended rascality, would be
thrown entirely into the shade.
It is well to keep Valley Forge and
the deeds associated with it in remem
brance, hut it wonld not be too im
aginative to believe that if the revolu
tionary worthies who suffered the I
hardship* of that winter rantoanient !
could ace what a rascally lot of job
bers and machine politicians are im
aging the government they would
probably give vent to their feelings iu
profane expressions.
