XOT DEM0CMATICALL1 INCUSED.
Il i> not probable that the Republican party,
when it assembles at Chicago, Wall conclude to
traaafonu itself into a quasi-Democratic party.
lt is not very likely that it will decide to aban?
don the principles which have made it victori?
ous and to tahaupiaatead the notion-- which
have brought thc Democratic party so often t<?
disgrace and defeat. Therefore, it ia aol
probable thal the proposition, which ia made in
Mime quartan, that thc Republican Convention
.-lull resolve to reduce and ?? reform" the present
Republican tariff, will awe! with much favor.
lt may he noticed that the proposition conies
from the set ol* men who, by styling themselves
Independents, hara taken care to advertise thal
tiny an* not altogether Republican in opinion.
lt comes from tho**' who 'nave found their athli
atiou.- in the pa-t with the free I railers and thc
importing merchants in the Republican camp,
;itul who have lieen more rigorous in declaring
whom tiny would not support than iu support?
ing anybody, lt has the especial favoi of Thc
Note-York Times, which has sealously coun?
selled and aid* il Mr. Morrison and bis nasociates
ns "l.n ill Reformers "?evidently considering
any conceivable step ol supreme stupidity a
*? Reform,*' if it is s step toward boa trade.
Neither Mr. .Morrison nor his aasoclatea, not
their organs, will make a platform foi the Rc
publican pally.
lt would be misc to ailinn that the Republi?
cans wish ;i general or "treal reduction of duties
on imports. Ihe truth is tha' more than nine
tenths of them wish no snob change, believe tie
present tari- as low as it ought to be in the
main, and lower tha ii it ought to be on some
importanl articles, and favor either an advance
ot duties or no chauge whatever, 'ihe large ma?
jority of them consider it wisc lo give ihe pres?
ent uuirt a fair trial, during a jrear or tiro ol
peace, withoul disturbance of trade .md prostra?
tion of ind na try hythe efforts of free-trade
Democrats and their so-called Republican allies.
ll after such dial it is found defective, they de?
sire io have ns defects so corrected that it shall
bc moto consistently and efficiently p*r*otective.
Thia is nnaneationably thc attitude of a major?
ity of Republicans. Hut a not inconsiderable
numbei believe it the Ant duty of the party to
correct the gross Inconsistencies and the per?
nicious provisions thrust into the present tarifl
i.y the votes ol Democrats and a few tue trade
Republicans. They claim that the wool tarifl of
18C7 ought to be restored. They show thal the
manufacture of cotton ties and tin* manufacture
ol liii plate-, and the manufacture of wile rod.-,
hav*- been completely hilled or placed .it the
mercy of foreign competitors, i?.\ features in th*
present tariff. Sri these details li.u'hi first, they
say, ;ind th' n give tie' tai iii a fair trial.
Tin number ol' Republicans who favor an?
other Democratic raid upon American Industries
is not I.U'.''*. Tin* circumstance thal some of
them are conspicuous and hive been highly
honored, like Mr. Dec. lui, doe-, not alter the
fact that tin-y are lew in number, and on this
Mib.ject almosl without influence in the Repub?
lican party. The claim thal their number ls
increasing, moreover, is palpably arong. For
many years there has nol been bo small a num?
ber of Republicans in favor ol reduction oi

the enactment ol the turill of 1 883.
A RETI8ED EXTBAD1TION LAW.
Recent disclosures ol financial mlsman ige
meut and betrayals of public itu-t direct atten?
tion to the inefficiency ol Extradition law.
since th** Treaty ol 1842 waa negotiated with
iiic.it Britain a new class ol crimea haa hean
ceated by that spirit of greed and money*
-jetting which has taken possession of the
American people. These climes international
law does not recognise as extraditable. The
bank-teller who, like Hinckley, embezzles the
money of depositors, can conceal his crime by
false entries and Ina bine.]** Dight cross ihe
boidei and lind a si cure refuge iii Canada. Thc
bank presidenl who misappropriates the funds
ol the institution committed lo bis chance, cannot
bc reached by criminal process either in Canada
or England. The reckless operator who ob?
tains money under false pratences ol haring
control ol Governmenl contracts^ and drags
down tn luiu his confiding partners and credu?
lous friends, would ba sen ened from punish?
ments single mile outside the jurisdiction ol
the United States. The antiquated Extradition
btw provides for tha return of criminals
charged with robbery, forgery or the utterance
af forged paver, hut is silent lespeCtiug those
greater crimea which have, become so alarm
ililli common. The small cheat who forges ii
signature, and the reckless thiel who knocks
dow n ;i bank messenger on the sidewalk and
snatches a roll ol money from his hand, may be
pursued to Canada <? across sea-and brought
back for trial. The greater criminal! who
traffics in thousands or millions of other men's
money, betraying trust, abusing the confidence
el employer, pattons or the public, covering hia
rascality with swindling devices and gambling
recklessly in the illusory chalices of the street,
caa evade hy a single night's joni m y the penal?
ties ol outraged law. Extradition is thc poor
thief a vengeance. Tor thieves of the upper
rank it. has no terrors.
T Public morals require radical changes in v\
tradition practice. Pmbfailiai, dafrndtera and
swindlers ought te be placed on a level with
robbers and -forgan. The diacriminatioa be
twaaa poor and desperate thieves and the rich
ami extravagant thieves, or those aha have
gagi (ich and extravagant, is one. that Ottghl
not to he maintain* d :i- a principle of inti rna

chances winch ate now Ia reserve for robbers
and fbrgers. Tha fact thai forgery, which waa

Iiow efficient intel lint ional action can be in pre

illcnces be added to the list of extraditable
[?limes, and a moat wholesome deterrent r-ttcct
would be produced. Tho iii-eetwity of re
rhdngtlM extradition code with Great Britain
is beconiinjr more urgent every year. It is the
weakest of tho whole series of International
compacts, for thc repression of crime, whereas il
Might to bo the atron^est. The list of ai
traditable crimea ought ,o be extended iq as to
include conspiracy to murder, misappropriation
nf pu lilli- money or trust funds, embezzlement,
obtaining money under false pretences and
other forms of SWJadllag.
ll in ii rs hash BILL,
Mr. Hewitt has introduced a bill in thc Ilon-c,
providing that "no president, cashier,teller,
"director or other officer ot any National hank
??-hall procure, Boc his own hem-tit or for thc
?'benefit of iiny copartnership, association Ol
" company cf a hieh he is a member, anj loan of
?? money from the bank of which he is an officer."
In case af a loss io the bank through such a
loan. -Heh officer shrill bc deemed guilty of em
he. /letti! tit of the sum ho lost, and shall be
liable on conviction to imprisonment from on*'
to ii\e years, and a tim equal to the mihi em?
in .vied. This seems to restrict the criminality
tn eases in which a loss to tho hank occurs, and
it may be doubted whether such a provision
would lecura thc end aimed at. Foi while tlie
procuring ol loans by bank oflcari ll pro?
hibited, no penalty is attached to the act save in
tha event oi loasaccruingi and it ia conceivable
tint bank officers might dissipate the funds ot
the bank despite such a law, and nilen a crash
came it might bc too late to protect tin- deposi?
tors or even impossible to collect the tine from
the guilty party.
What is wanted is a law which will protect
depositors ami stockholders by preventing the
a.-e fl hank funds for private purposes by bank
(.thiers ; ami 1 le- only way to do tlint ls to make
the procuring of such loans a punishable
offence, without regard to the outcome of the
speculations in which they arc employed. Mr.
Hewitt's bill appears aimed at punishment
rather than prevention, and thia is its weakness.
lt wonld be a poor sii ti sf act ion to the depositors
to have an embezzler put iii prison after he had
made away wiih the bank fonds. What they
demand is such legislation a- will make this
kind of malversation impossible. Recent
events, moreover, bave shown the danger "i
allowing om* or two heavy stockholders to ran
bank--. Bank managers ought not to be larne
-stockholders, but employes chosan for their
knowledge of tho business- and Intrusted with
no dangerous powers, lu England tin* repre?
sentative power of hank -tock is carefully
limited, and il is thu- impossible for oin* man to
acquire a controlling Influence in th" hank di?
rection. Such i restriction i- needed here, ami
should be Inserted in Mr. Hewitt's hill, which
should also be uinended so aa io make the pro?
curing of loans l).v bank officers criminal from
tin- beginning, nnd which should also provide
ngniusl lha covering np ot such transactions on
tin- bank book-.

They ate having trouble ai New-Iberia,
Louisiana, and it arises oul ot Indulgence in
peculiarly Southern political mci hods. The
(rouble i- in reference to tin* rennie ol a judicial
office, This wa- formerly held by Judge Ton
telisn, but at a recent election Judge Gates was
dec!,md to have received a Ul liol it V ot thc
volt-. The friends ol Judge Fontelien as?
serted that th.- election eras fraudulent j that
tbe a Hexed maimm ul (.at,- was obtained by
deliberately as-i .min-: a large number ol purely
lictitious votes t'? a small voting precinct which
tlid not repreaent a tithe ot the number alleged.
So they counselled Judge Foutelieu to refuse
to give up thc office, and the] proceeded forth?
with to garrison the Court House. Thebther
side then apiiealed to tho state Government t"i
help, and lt ia stated that several companies of
militia have been ordered out, ami are h? in_
prepared to put tbe Judge-elect iu possession
ol iii-, office. Meantime Judge Oates and his
friends have been taking steps tn help them?
selves, lt is said that In- is ? supported by th*
mercliants and educated people,'' and that u his
party have established their arsenal about two
squares from tlie Court Bouse/'and tf have or
"gauised a bodi of nun wbo are well armed,
" and a militia company has also ii.cn formed
" and i.s ready nt a moment's c.-ill.'"
In '-pitc of this" formidable preparations,
however, it i- understood thi' Judge Fontclicu
leclarea that "no mattel whit might come,
fudge i'ates wini hi never preside ovei the conti
lhere." Not even militia, according to him,
ifould alter the condition oi things. "Judge
Sates would never preside." This might look
ihe tin- intiiimt inn of s ferocious purpose to
lilow the top <?tl Jndge Oates's head, bnt for the
[act thal tbe staterneni emanates from another
Indge. At prece nt che opposing parties speak
d one'a not he i as " fait ion.-," and are, as il were,
lying npon their arms, waiting foi the battle t"
begin. When Brigadier-General Perry, of the
nilitin, arrives, it is expected thal the shooting
.viii begin,and then "the merchants and adu?
lated people'1 will manifest their superior en
ightenment and their comprehension of and re
'peet tor republican institutions by trying to
viii a- mam rs possible of their political op
loncnts.
The lact seems to be that Judge Pontelicn is
inpported by many il not all ol the colored
.otcis, and that the other sith- undertook to
?count him out" at the election, and that hid
friends wens indisposed to submit t<> that
nethod of securing rotation in office. Bo thej
md recourse to those South American tactics
vhich have become ao familiar to Southern
loliticians, and undertook t?i protect them

loncnts. The peculiarity ol thc case i.s the
iromptneas witta which both parties have re?
sorted to violence, and tbe evident relish with

uanifcated in the whole episode is distinctly
.iitin rather than Anglo-Saxon. It l- the spirii
