"WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 5, 1HM.
China, a back-number nation, and the
American Democracy, a baok-number
party, will remember November, 1891,
the saddest and most disastrous month
n their history. Both have fallen victims
to civilization and progress.
Even if "a complete reform of tbe cur
rency system is necessary," as Mr. Cleve
land 1b quoted as declaring, no student of
Our financial history will venture to hope
for any satisfactory work in that line
from a -Democratic Congress or a Demo
emtio commission. There are neither
figs on the thistles nor grapes on the
thorns this year.
Chairman Wilson's price for a lecture
on the beauties of free trade Is just WOO,
and it 1b conceded by all hearers that lio
f nneral oration was ever better worth the
money. It not only does full justice to
the lamented deceased, but it shows that
Brother Wilson is fully consecrated, as
Mr. Cleveland would remark, to tariff re
form for revenue only.
If this country has. any foreign relation
which Secretary Gresham has not Involved
in a snarl of some sort, it has so far es
caped observation. The omission, if any,
will be supplied in due time. Mr. Gres
ham is evidently willing to sit up o'
nights to accommodate any foreign power
that seeks an 'opportunity to wipe its feet
on his so-called diplomatic policy.
If there is anybody in this country who
can tell just hnw to go to work to assess
and collect tin) income tay, ho would re
.v?rive (t'vl' f and gnawing anxiety In
Administration circlos by plnclng him
self in communication with Secretary
Carlisle. The law authorizing the collec
tlon of that tax places .Mr. Carlisle In
much the same embarrassing position ho
would be In if he hnd been told to go out
and capture n wild elephant without a
word of Instruction as to how ho was to
do it.
Mn. UtED has the power of putting
things la a nutshell with neatness and
dispatch. In hU speech at Boston ho .re
ferred to "tariff taxation," "free raw
materials," the "markets of the world"
and "all the other oatchwords which ex
hibit the wisdom of the ptrrot nud the
declalmer, instond of the wisdom of the
Btatesmau." This is very neat, but of
course Mr. Heed can have no hope that
the "parrots" and "doclalmera" will cene
from their chatter. That is not their
way. They will keep on talking, no
matter what the logic of events has m tde
clear.
WiTiioi'T attracting a large degree of
public attention, the Life-Saving Service
does Its work faithfully and well from 1
year to year. The annual report of Its'
operations for the last twelve-month
shows nearly 4,0 0 shipwrecked persons
rescued anil nearly $8,000,000 worth of
properly saved, all at a cost of $1,360,000.
More disasters occurred during the year
than In any previous year in the history
of the service. So successful is this branch
of the government's work that it excites
tbe R'lmtiattou and Imitation of other
lands. Happily, politics are kept separate
from the Life-Saving Serrioe, and its
efficiency was not impaired by the chnnge
of Administration.
Hill's return to Washington. Is some
thing like Napoleou's from Iiuwla. He
cannot even say with Franoli I, after the
battle of Pavla, "All is lost save honor,"
but he may at least congratulate himself
that he has brought away his character
Intact. That is, as it was, and he now
knows what the people think of it. They
don't want him for Governor, aud they
don't want him for Senator. He has been
somewhat celebrated for tbe phrase, "I
am a Democrat," a locution having the
fluuiesRof a Bavarian pancake- and ou a
ien-l with the utterance of a Madagascar
panot lint if he in really a Demoorat,
now w i he time to show it. Obedience to
in. ui.im' the peopje is Democracy ; auy
ti, ii i !- masquerading in lt8gulse;is a
hli ,i. uul n humbug
Imbecile.
In the popular meaning an lmboclle
Is a half wlttod pnrgnii. Dnt Mnrtha
Louise Clark takes a difforent view of
the subject in a paper in The Aietin.
Miss Clark is a well known teaohor of
Imbecile children. Shu divides them
into fonr classes the harmless, passive
sort, who are congriiitnl pnnpewi tbe
stubborn, brutal ones, governed almost
entirely by passion; third, the class
that havo a little more sense than tho for
mer two, but whoso sense ruus to dis
honesty and "little snonking villainies; ' '
fourth, tholam that has some good in
rlinntion and "can, with help and sym
pathy, do fairly well in the straggle for
esristeuco. "
There is no doing anything perma
nently with the iinbooiles of any class.
It is from thoir ranks that tho petty
thieves and police court prisoners are
recruited. Thoy ore not oapable of
steady work. She tells us that "tramps
in thousands of oases betray tbe charac
teristic features and expression of tho
imbecile." The samo typo of face is
frequently found in the penitentiaries,
Of the fourth class, the ones having
the most sense, Miss Clark finds they
are moral rather than mental imbeciles.
Then is added the fearful sentence,
"Thirty-four per oent of the imbecile
children are the result of intemperance
in parents and are sure to become
drunkards themselves. " They manifest
often the characteristics of Chinese
opium eaters, and tho writer thinks they
often must be the children of opium
oonsumiug parents.
The hopeless part of this matter of
Imbecile children is that there is no
giving them permanently eithor senso,
morals or physical health and strength.
They are born from parents like them
selves. They are tho saddest illustration
of heredity on reoord. Most of them are
born in slums and pooi'houses. They ill
turn marry and perpetuate their kind.
They are surely poisoning the blood of
the whole raoe. Miss Clark mentions a
family of seven children in the Ponu
eylvauia institution for imbeciles. They
had all been born in a poorhouse from
a pauper mother.
That society will permit such repro
duction to go on shows that it has no
conception of the fearful ourse it is
bringing upon its own head. The pre
vention of tbe marriage and oonsequout
lnoroase of paupers and imbeciles Miss
Olark considers to be the only remedy.
Stop tbe deadly, poisoned stream at its
source.

It will probably be necessary to elect
one more separate mayor of Brooklyn
before the vast consolidation scheme,
the greatest over undertaken by cities,
shall be offectod. The mayor of Now
York servos a term of throe years, nud
ono has just boon olected. Tho main
question of municipal government when
tho union takes place will be whether
it will be wiso to givo tho mayor of
greater Now York absolute power of
appointment and removal of most of the
officers who servo tho city oxocutivo de
partment. Of tho material benefits which will
accruo to tho wholo population from
one consolidated government houostly
administered thoro is not n shadow of
doubt. It is n common stvyiug that it
now requires nonrly as long to go from
Now York to Stateu Island or to tho
outer edge of Brooklyn as it does to go
to Philadelphia. When the great con
solidation beoomos reality, thuro will
be bridges over the river, sound and bay
and tunnols under them. There will bo
ono vast system of rnpid transit without
change of care. Statcn Island oxpects
tho greatest boom of itH life. A traction
company has already socuiod tho right
to crisscross tho old island with electric
railways. Stateu Island will boconie a
vast city of residences. The union will
probably not be finally acccomplishcd
bofore 1808.
An attempt was nmdo at tho trial of
tho Memphis lynchers to use popular
prejudice against tho court testimony
of an unbeliovor or aguostio to defeat
justice. Ono of the witnesses against
the lynchers, Butch Carvor, tried to
get oif from giving evideuco on the
ground that ho was an iufldol, . nud
therefore nut a crcdiblo witness. But
Judgo Cooper suppressed this foolish
ness by ruling that Carver was a com
petent witness. .Here indeed is an in
stance of stealing tho livery of thooourt
of heaven to serve the devil in.
Francis Magtinrd, oditor of tho Paris
Figaro, died too soon. lie had one of
the coolest, fouudest heads in French
journalism, and ho was only 07, nu age
when the intellect is in its primo. Mng
unrd applied common sense to tho con
sideration of home polities, in which
respect he was different from most
French editors. His claim to proud dis
tinction rests on the faot that through
his paper he caused the middle class of
France to aooept the republic loyully.
Lawyers and wage earning barkeep

Scarcely arrived when tho governor ex

lessly. Leon Abbott was born in Philadelphia
on Oct. 8, 1880, and after receiving his edu

bar, removed to New York city, where he
formed a law partnership with W. J. A.

continuing his practice In the Now York
courts, lie soon after began to. take an
active part In politics, and In lSo5-r)fl, and
again in loXM 70, was elected to tho stotc
legislature, of which he twice became
speaker. In 1875-77 ho served as a mem
ber of the state senate.
At the state convention of his party in
1877, Mr. Ablnstt made his first appearance
as an aspirant for gubernatorial honors,
receiving 150 votes to the 804 which made
General McClollan the candidate. lie de
clined to enter tho contest for the nomina
tion in 1880, when he might have scoured
it, but In 18b3 he received tho nomination
over eight competitors. At the cleotlon of
that year he was elected governor by 0,iiW
plurality over Dixon, the Hepubllcon can
didate. Governor Abbett was not a candidate for
renomiuntlon in lbbti, and the faction led
by him was defeated, tho nomination be
ing secured by Congiessinnu Holicrt C.
Green, who was elected. In tho following
year Mr. Abbott aspired to tho sonntor
shlp and secured the cuttcus nomination
of his party, but four Democratic mem
bers of the legislature bolted the nomina
tion and eloctid Unfits Blodgctt, Demo
crat, by the help of the llepublieaus. As
the senatorial election of 1880 approached,
Mr. Abbett again announced himself as a
pandldnto for tho seat held by .lohnlt. Mc
Pherson, but MoPhernon secured a re-election.
In 1S00 Mr. Abbett again took his seat
as governor, having been chosen by a good
majority at the previous election. In 1892
he again tried for the Vnltid States sena
torship, but was defeated by James Smith,
Jr. In 18H3 he was given a place on tho
supremo bomb. His record there wnsfreo
from all suspicion of partisan unfairness.
Indeed, some said that he rather leant to
wards severity In his judgment on his own
party.

At the expiration of his term as governor

' Gentlemen t I write these lines to eertifi
that Hood's Sarsapar Ilia lias eured me of a nios
painful disease from which I have suffered thi
past four years. It appeared In the form o)
eruptions on my neok and faoe, spreading ovi
my body, so painful that I could not sleep if
night, and could not work In the day time, ani
when I did lay down and get Into a little dozo, U
I would move Just a little, It would start that
terrible sensation, and
Blood Would Start
from the eruptions on my legs and body. I hat
to wear bandages all the time. My eyes wer
badly swollen, my back In terrible oondltloa
One physlolau said It was weed poison, another
eczema, and the last told me It was
Nicotine Poisoning,
and that I would have to go to a physician whs
made a speciality of my disease. (I omitted t
lay that I am a cigar maker by trade.) Bui
flood's Barsaparilla had been rooemmended,
and I thought I would try It, and I am heartili
