FALSE LEADERSHIP.
In the letter In wbinb Congitsstnan
Ilnriphy announced tiio rueignation from
Tammany hall, oerur sentiments
Whlob, In view of the Trojan ontftgt,
Hpponr almost prophetic. Foi example,
witness tbia : "Om effort to prevent
our political enemies from interfering
with honest elections should bt nreftt
and aa esrnest in our own political
household and tlv ballot should be
Riiarded from all danger of uvery
kind, We mint not neglect to lmUt
on it that the man in our rank who
arranges or encourage colonization,
false registration, illegal voting, or
false returns, or who. baring the re
sponsible position of lender, purposely
elos hi eyes while such practice are
goins on and afterward crowd honor
on the evil doers, shall be notified in
DO uncertain tone thai there la no place
for hitn in our party. Otherwise we
travel uuder false color mid our fel
low'citiatna, with truthfulness, will
charge us with want of honest purpos.
It is ouly a small handful of men who
favor corrupt elections, and these are
men who have BO real love of country,
who have never appreciated the value
of citizenship, who look upon theea
cred right of suffrage only as some
thing to be bartered and sold, and who
imagine they see in such shameful
traffic either ;in easy wiv to politic!
importance and preferment or a cer
tain way to perpMuite their power."
No one who knows anythlug about
the inner workings of Tturniny poli
tics, whether practiced imiaediatelv in
New York city or imitated iu Bufflo,
Albany or Troy- or the facile copyist
of Tammany methods, will seriously
maintain that the moral responsibility
of such men as C'roker and Murpuy
ends limply at "purposely closing their
eyes" while billot staffing and eleetoial
outrages are going on. Their partici
pation in crime against the suffrage is
more than negative; it is offensively
nud -aggressively poitive. Taeir sin
ere sin not of omission, bnt of con
mission. They actively plot toe
scheme which their henchmen earry
into obnoxious execution; an 1 if they
are, in thx'majority of cases, too can
ning to t.ike person il part in the dirty
work taat carries with it serious risks
of public exposure and condemnation,
they are none too scrupulous to enjoy
to the full limit the profits of such ras
cality and to make it the capital of
their political bar'er and sale.
No self respecting D.-rnocrat can af
ford to appear in the role of apologist
for the Crokers and the Murphy of
the Democratic party, for tin simple
reaion that, to leave all consideration
of morality ont of the question, these
men are the worst foes the Dem

I.v the city of Washington there is
in operation a system of electric trolley
cars which convey its motive power
by means of underground wires. The
system is said to give general satis

indispensable it evidently draws an

THE TRAMP EVIL.
An instructive inrilent is reportel
In Pittston. A telegrapher, W. J.
Hepburn, in the dnsk of evening, was
returning from work across the Lacka
wanna railway bridge that spin the
Knsquehanna river. He was suddonly
confronted, in the darkneu, tiy three
auspicious looking characters, who
separated in order, asitsoemod, t let
Hepburn pass. One moment later
Hepburn was (truck on tlie bead by a
Mont imtrument and fell full length
acroi the railway tie. His three as
sailants next kicked him viciously in
the head and wero about to cast him
into the river below when, by a desper
ate effort, be regained cousclousuosi
and freedom, and ontran his pnrsners.
The only explanation given for this
tiuprovoked attack Is that it was the
work of part of a gang of tramp i who
.iad been enenmpsd on Everhart's
island, their motive being robbery.
We have heretofore alluded to
similar lawlessness in Monroe county,
due to destitution among stranded rail
way construction hands recontly Im
ported from the South. L iter informa
tion from the scene of the Tannersvllle
conflict conveys the intelligence that
these obnoxious pmnlless prowlers
will be forcibly di ported at the
county's expense. Whether this shall
be done or not, it is obvious that
merely shifting the location of our
peripatetic criminal classes will not
decrease their pronoaess to crime nor
do much to eliminate the tramp evil
that bas lately grown so conspicuous
in all part of the United States.
When in the very centers of popula
tion it becemes unsafe for citizens to
venture forth after nightfall, without
takiug precautions for sjlfprotection,
it is obvious that tho subject of tramp
extermination, whether viewed from
humanitarian or mob law stand
points, demands instant attention.
TBI TninrsE W not prepared to sny
how this problem shall be met. The
circumstances of individual emergen
ces vary too greatly to permit of safe
generalisation. Regularly constituted
authorities, however, need to be
spurred to the fullest extent of practi cal
activity, and, if necessary, re-in-forced.
Agencies of charity are not
yet prepared to abate their energies in
providing work for those who will.
The good, old, patrlarchial custom of
personal chastisement lor insolent
mendicants has its attractive point ns
a means of correction. Another alter
native presents itself in the schools of
reformation which philanthropic pen
ologists are establishing in many places.
Whether or not these remedial will bo
sufficient is for the public itself to de
cido. Be that nt it may, the tramp
evil has of late attained proportions
demanding careful and earnest con
sideration ; and the sootier this problem
it thus ituditd by our people, tho
quicker will it yield to tho attention
that society mutt eventually pay it.
pulsive they thus make themselves ap
pear. The other fourth are candidates
for separate sties.
At the tame time it is only jnit to
remind tho ood women of l'ailadel
phia, who have thus taken np tile bat
tie. for decency in public placos, of an
other evil crying aloul for quiet re
proof. Wo ndvr to the mUtalcuti fond
ness which many Intelligent woman

or beslobbering the snaky nostril of an

male to expectoration of the most oo
pious style.

It DJ a curious commentary on the
kind of justice dispensed in Murphy

St NAT OR HILL'S WORK.
L'pou more than one occasion David
1). Hill bas exhibited a 1 mental grasp
of putdic questions which entitles him
to rank among the great possibilities of
American politics. It has, however,
been hi misfortune too often to sink
the statesman In the politician ; an I to
devote to the fabrication of cunning
and wonderful mechanisms of political
extortion talents that, properly exercis
ed, would place him well toward tho
front rank of great American public
men.
A new instance of this occasional
elevation of character is supplied in
the successful fight wnich Ssnator Hill
bas waged against the economic mm
trosity which, as it left the house, was
neither protection fish nor free trade
fowl, bnt a combination of both that
had all the faults and none of the
merits of either. His insistence npon
a tariff bill which should create
revenne was a straightforward
vindication of the Democratic platform
pledge. The pledge itself my have
been an nuwise one Republicans be
lieve that it was. They believe that
revenne collection can be successfully
united with the necessity of protecting
American industry: they believe, in
itber words, that In order to raise
funds for the conduct of governmeut it
is not necessary nor is it patriotic to
give competing countries the free ben
efits of our valuable home markets,
nor to degrade home labor to foreign
wage levels.
Nevertheless, a a matter of political
honesty, the Democratic party, having
declared for a revenue only tariff
shonl 1 adhere to Its declaration, and
Senator Hill'e action in blockading the
effort to dodge that responsibility i
one of the few instances in his check
erea career which evinces a proper
conception of the validity of party
platforms in the determination of pure
iy partisan policies. The two particulars
in which his coarse is erroneous ure
first, in its failure to recognize the su
pertor claim of the American working
man and manufacturer upon American
legislation, at contrasted with the claim
of the foreigner, and secondly, in itt
false conception that this obligation to
tbe American people should be bounded
by party lines. He errs in his con
ttntion that tne prosperity or oar
country is an exolusive concern of any
one party, ending the very moment
when that party shall have b"cn re
tired from powor. This latter plan of
tatesmansliip is yet above and beyond
him. But for that matter, few states
men of either party have reached it In
its fulness.

small expenditures in roadway repairs,
and thereby leys itself liable to large
expenditures in litigation and judg

THE MAN OF THE HOUR.
The mauifesto of tho Parnellites, dis
avowing faith in the Uoteliery cam
let will surprise nobody, although it is
unfortuuate. The Parnellitet, under
the leadership of John Redmoud, have
chosen to ( ccupv a guerilla attitude,
which would naturally preclude a close
alliance with the administration of an
Knglish peer who, from all accounts,
appears to regard certain iMigusti re
forms as deserving of at least equal
consideration with the iiuestiou of
home rule.
Nevertheless, it is the general con
census of students of the Irish problem
that homo rule must conn through
uvolattou rather than revolution; from
sense of its justice, prevalent umoug
the majority of Englishmen, rather
than as a token of submission to su
perior force. Tho inevitable tendency
of the Liberal tarty is toward a rec
ognition of Ireland's equal right with
England to autonomy in locil alTiirs;
it cannot deny to ouo island a reform
which it concedes to be fair and proper
iu another.
Americans, somehow, have faith in
Lord Rosebery and faith also in his as
sociates. It seems to them that he is
the logical premier, next to Gladstone;
the man to whom nil circuinstanoes
point us being ths requisite champion
of tho coming revolt of the English
middle classes against the useless and
obsolete peers. If he can bring success
to this great. battle in behalf of popular
government, there will remain little
doubt of the ultimate triump'a of self
government at applied to dofraudod
