From a letter which Frofessor Chandler, as

THE FBB8IDBNT8 MESSAGE.
The one characteristic of l'losidont Harrison's
annual Message which most impres_* every
candid reader is i:* absolute freedom from par
tisanship or prejudice. There is in it no strain
ing for effect. It is a simpie. cleai and business
like sratement of public affairs, full of wise and
practical suggestions. and 88 dispassionatc tha.
Its poiusal, after the crazy factional oontests of
Ii.'it.v.ciats, is like B breath of cool mountain air.
The Piesident. calmly invites the closest public.
scrutiny of every Department. in full conlidenco
that inquiry would strongthon the trust of the
?people in their admini<tration. Ho treats very
briefly of the tariff. only to urge that the new
law should have a fair trial, and that agitation
"cannot help but must sorioiisly impOdo busi?
ness" which needs a measitre of stability. Lo
points ont that msults thus far have falsified tho
predictions of opponents; that imports have not
deeroasod : that the Treasury is not banknipt;
that priees have not advanced. and says : " Kare
ly. if ever before in tho histoiy of the eountry.
BBB there been a time when the proceeds of one
days labor or the product of one farmed acre
would purchase so large an amount of those things
that enter into the living of the masses of tho
peopl(\" He also shows in detail that the por
oentage of free imports is 48.IH, against .'14.27
for the previous year. and sincc the repeal nf
tho sugar duties 55..".7 per cent of imports are
fioe, a prop.ition norver before attained under
any tariff.
Tho President's remaiks on tho siiver quostion
are so dispassi.uiate that his roeommendation that
the present law should have 8 fair trial will havo
rho gieater weight. Ho iirges that expcctaiions
of friends and foes alike have Ixn-n disappointod,
BB8I b.rth with 0818 the causes of failure of silvei
l.ullion to advance in consequonoe of (.overn?
ment piirchases, and oxpresses ?,trong hope that
tho law will yet help silver-producers as it has
not hitherto helped them. llut he speaks in tho
plaincst terms of the unwisdoin of ccntiaued
agitation, and especially of the efforts for free
coina^e, which would biing disaster upon tho
whole people becauso it would make it imp-.s
sible to maiiitain equal purchasing power for the
gold aud the siiver dollar. and add*. in words
that desorve serioits thought :
The producer* of thc cui.try. il* farmer* and
labor.r-, Bava tl.o liighe*.t inierc.si thut every dollut,
paper or coin. Ksued hy the ( .vernnient shall b*. a*

another, its _iro and ct.ii-tunt eir.ind will t>e la iwy
them for their toil and for their crops. Tho money
lender will protect himself by xtipulatinp for pay men*
in gold, but Ihe labore r luts never been able to do tliat.
To place busine** upon a siiver basis would niean a
sudden and tevero contraetion of the currency, Bf the
withdruwal of gold and Rold note . and *nch an un
scttling of all values as would produce a commercial
paulc
It is the less necessary here to review in de?
tail the remarks of the Tresident, regarding the
operations of tho different Department*;, because
the rceommendations of those I.epartmonts have
been ooaaidBiad in oooaactioa with annual ro
|ort*. Ho refers especially to the removal of
causes of desertions from the Army. to deeisions
of the courts which embarrass the prtfvention
of Chinese iinmigration across the Canadian bor
der, to the great iinprovement of the pnstal
service, and to the ereation of the new Navv,
(*._K'f ially urging that, " there should bo no hesi
tation in promptly eompleting a Navy of the
best modern tvpe, large enough to enahle this
eountry to display its thg in all seas for tho pro?
tection of its eitizen.i and of its extending coin
merce."
The Indian Service, the I'resident believes,
was nover more canef ully conditcted, but ho sub
mits that the existence of the Indian Terrftory
is "a startling anomaly,"1 and that tho lij-ht*'
and inten-sts tf the Indians should be ivpiesented
on tho ioor of Congress, and not merel.v in tho
lobby. His statement as to uie diininUhed valuo
of lirst pajaaeatB under the new FsBBkm law
will explain to many their great em.r in est.i
in.uiiig tho effect of lcent k-gislation, and his
appi'i.val of the excellent woik dono bj the new
A_riculttu.il DeparlBMBt is justilied by its re
sult-s. Tho I'resident's ajquoval of the Civil
Sorvice svstein is unieserved and hearty, and he
lefers with pleasuie to the fact that duriug tlio
year he has extended iU" lield of r.perationn.
lf there lie partisanship in urging that there
should bo honest, free and fair elections, the
President is clearly a paitisau. His oomments
on the gerrymander by which in Michigan a
inethod of chousing I'lef-idcntial tlectois, which
has boen unaiiimutisly followed in the States for
many years, has now beon bioken for partisan
purpo_'s, are sUong and earnest, and he is justi
fied in calling it " disgraceful partisan jugglery.''
He recommends legi>lation fo iseciire uniformity
in the choioe of 1'rosidential Klcctors. and urgec
that the chief National danger lies " in the over
throw of majority control by the suppressiOB or
peiversion of the popular siiffrage." To the end
that thone evils mav be removed, he propBBB8
the ereation of a non-paitiean commission which
?ball inve.stigate the whole subject of election
laws and existing abuses, with the hojie that
it may bo able to stibmit leniedies which will be
oaaaiflBOaalj adopted. The cl.ising i-emaiks ..f
the 1 lewident express prido in the " incieased
unilication of our people and levived National
spirit," and ho adds: ? _\ trust, monieiitniis in
its inHuenco upon our peojile and iijkmi tho
world, is for a brief time (ouimiMed to us, aud
we must not be faithk\*s to its first conditiofl?
the defence of HBB free and equal inHuenco of
the {x'ople in tho choice of public ofliceiw and
in the control of public affairs."
IORE1GX EELA TIOXS.
A large part ,of the l'resideiit's Message i?
occupied with a luniinous review of the foieign
lelations of the year. The complications with
Chili conie lirst in the order of imjxirtance, since
that is the only quarter of tho Nati'inal hoiizon
iu which a clt.ud as large as a man's hand is nuw
to be desciied. The 1 '_?.?ident's expesition ol
the neutiality po)i_f adopted by ihe tiuve niuient
is admirable for its lucidity. Diploinai'. BB_
naval ofticern alike weit* enjoined (liiiinj* the
civil war to u*e their inHuenco in the latBMBta
of humanity, and to if?frain fr..m inteiference
in the domestic affairs of Chili. The best proof
that they followed their instructions is the fact
that BB ofli.ial complaint against .Miuister EgBfl
oi- tho naval cuminanders has been presented tu
tho Departmenf of State. Tl..- junsuit of tho
Itat'i was an obligation impiv-ed upon the A.l
ministration by the, illegal and hostile conduct
of tnoso who defied tha authority of the I'liit.'.l
States **M**> That this episode ought not to
have excited resentment in Chili is shown by a
cit-iti .i from the correspondence bolween the
Jui.ta at lipi..|.if and Admiial lin.wi.. Witliout
soliiitation from the I'nited States the Jnnta
vol.uiiai'ily offered to return tho vessel, and ie

Among the most importaiif achiovements of tho
State Departimiit during the. year have been
tho negntiation of three __B-iprocity tre.itios and
tho removal of unjust disciimin itior.s against
Amorican poik Ifl Kurcpe. Similar negotiations

confid'-iuly .-xpa-t t that ull the four ij_as willbo
decido_ tfl favor of tho I.epiiblicans. The rea
so-is which led us to foim this coriclusion have
been cxhamstively preaented in our columns, and
wt do not i/urpota to refer to thcao ?14____L______ 1
[i is moro profitablo to glance at two things
which thc** cl.'i ti-.ii disputos Icutli. lu the lost
p! i.tt, th".v teach that more attention should bo
given to tho duty of picking out mon for in
spectors of elections and county stipervisois.
These ..nicials ought m be men of the highest
character and of approved intelligence. since they
have only tO be iinfaithful or inoflicient to bring
Ui naught the will of the majority as cxpressod
at thc baliot-b..x. In tOO many place.-. tho im
BMBfofl *-\i<J?'iitIv prevails that any sort of man
will do ft." inspector or supervisor. On this thc
ory tho Democratic Supervisors of Dutches .
Steuben and Onondaga, now in offlco, would
seem to have bBBB uominated and elected. If
they had boen per. .ms ..F integiity and capaeity
th..' -t.it.- would havo escaped the election BCBB
dals with which it has been disgiacod of lato.
In the second placo these eloction disputes tvach
that our ju.liciaiy ?a'n bo trusted. It will be
icni.-iiibciod that (Jovernor Hill a few weeks
ago made a mo*: ladecaal attack on certain
Supremo Court Judges, holding that they wero
mere cieaturos of political leaders. The part
wliich tho bench has taken in these contests is
au uiiansweiable refutation of the (iovcinor's
BtrodOBB instilt to one of the great htanches of
our Stato liovernment. He sent Justico Morgan
J. O'Hrieii. of this city. to Syracuse with tho
ovidcnt hopo that. forgetting what was duo to
his oflice and to his own good name, he would
allow partisanship to control him. Hut Judge
O'Hricn met tho expectations of honest roteri
in both parties. He declinod to lend himself to
any of Ilill's jobs. Ile united with Judge Ken
nedy iu lefeiriiig all tho disputes in tho N.W'th
District to tho Court of Appeals. The course
purstied by Judges Konuedy, Harnaid and Kd
uaids was most creditable and public-spiritod.
They did their duty fearlossl.y and faithfully,
without giving a thought to tho bearing of their
action on politics. It la possible, therefore, that
tho next time David II. Hill feels temptod to
indict tho judiciary of tho Stato of New-York
he will rest rain himself.
Theso aro itnportuit lesson . and wo may be
suro that the _K>oplo will not soon forget them.
The contests fach still anuthei' thing?that Hill
ia an tap-Bcabli foe of honest elections. But
then that is an old story.
BELIEF FOE THE RLSSIAXS.
Tho Governor of Miunesota has made a tottttl
BPfBBl to thc p.- .|.le nf tbat >tate br aid for tho
fainine and fever Btricfcefl BBbJBOtSOf the I.ussian
Czar. Yaiious other ap|?eals to the same end
have also been made dming the last few weeks
in dillerent parts of this conntiy. To what 8X
i. nt thc pul.lie has respinded, or will probably
k .pond, IB theso calls for help does not at this
wriiing appcar. The American people are, how
over, always geiierous, as other nations will
tc*tify ; and just now their own pruspority enables
tln'in to exercise their generosity laigely. More?
over, their interest in Itussia and the BbBbIbbB
has in late years been much excited by tho
roalistic accounts of that great Kmpire given to
them by Mr. Kennan, Mr. Lat.in, and others.
Wo doubt not, therefore, that this commendable
work of siiccor will bo joincd in by many hamls
and purset*. and that much suffering will thereby
bo alleviated.
Tho 0888 is one that appeals to humanitarians,
not to politicians. It is true, of course, tha*
wilfully bad government, more than bad weathor,
is rffcpnnaibbi fnr tho distiess of tho moujiks.
It is true likewiso that the Rus*ian (.overnment>
is fully able, but unwilling, to neliove all the
actual want. It is true, moreover, that tho
KiL**ian (.overnment, instead of providing ?uc
cor for thoso whom it h;is bronght to ruin, is
lavishly sjiending its money for ohjects which
aro eouspieiious among the causes of that ruin.
Tho " Novoyo Vremya" nowspaper reports, on
indiibital.lo authority that tho Ministry have at
their di.sp.isal moro than 410,000,000 rubles in
gold, of which at least 135,000,000 aro lying
idlo and uii|.i'..dtictivo in Stato cofTors, while the
revenues of tho Kmpire show a handsome ttt*
plus. and this year's l.alanco of trado shows more
thin 231,000,000 rubles to tho good. This
prnsperity pr.unpts tho (...veinment, however,
only to increase l.y many millions the appropria
tions fur tho army and navy. Hut a!l ttMBB
things do BO. of course. matter to the philan
thn.pist. Millions of )K*ople are suffering ; and
if their uwn _OWIIBBBIBJ does not help them?
whether it cannot or will not?ir is the duty of
other* to do so.
It !* there...re to be hoped that substantial con
trihutinns f..r tho relief of tho starving inotijiks
will bo made wheYevor opportunity is offered.
This will bo a manifoMation of syinpathy toward
tho heljiless peoplo of Kussia. As for tho Kussian
li.ivt'innieiit, nu American wxirthy of the name
Bboold regard it with feelings other than those
of stern rondemnatiuii. Its faco is set, as a flint
again ?t liberty, BgaiBflt education, against prog
re.ss, against eveiyihing that Americans ma*t
piiz. And tho very catastruphet that calls for
sympathy arttb the Rtissian poople calls with
(i.pial force for hatred of the tyranny. potitfCB.
mental and moial, that is represented by the
I.ussian C/.ar.
A TTCKLlSH EMIXEXCh.
The two young Democratic Congressmon from
Massachu setts, Messis. (.ieorgo Fred Wifliams
BBd >heiinan Hoar, havo achioved disfinction
at tho very opciiing of their Congressional ca
roers, n.-t l.y anything they have done, but,
singularly enough, l.y doing nothing. Aftor
having taken a e mspici. ?us!y aclive part ifl tho
animated and exciting canvass which preceded
the holding of the caitcus t<. noininate a candidato
lor Speaker. and having taken pait in the caucus
and voted on every baliot for the candidate of
their piefeivnce, they refused tm accept the 10
siilt. eignifying their <li**a;isl'action therowith by
<le< lining lo voto for SpBBBBf when their name*.
wero called in tho House. They have taken
tli * (-..ui*,. il.-lil.eiately, and freely give their
IBBBOfl fof it. lt is .*iniply that they had given
assiirance, to tlieir coiistituents that thoy wonid
BOt voto for any . in.li.late for S]>caker who
would not prOfl_B6 to use his inHuenco "again*t
the OOaafderatiOB of bad linan.ial legislatinii and
tho exten.*i..n of siiver coinage" ; and as Mr.

cline.l to vote for him, __Hlfb he was the noin
inee uf a ca.iciis in which they took their chanees
and fhe regular candidato of the party by whose

At lit-st !.lii*h this BBOBM a rather horoic |mt

Whatever may i.o said of tho cvils of caueus
rulo and of eflBflflfl tyranny, nothing can be
plainer than that when men lay asido th. n ob
joctions to it by going into a regnlar party tooem
they must lie bound hy its action if they a.e
honorable men. The. time for Messm. Williaius
and Hoar to explain their posirion waa bcfoio
taking part in the caii-iw. That was Ihe time
when they should have infomied their 8880
liu-.s thai they wero under such ante-election
obligations that thoy could flfl. abide by tho ro
rttilt under certain dirumstances. They gav?- M
intimatioii of this until the result was ro-thed,
when they impreassively disclosed the fact that
they could not iu honor accopt it. In oth-r
wonls, they pl-.>(_tl their cards for all they apfln
worth, took advantage of all the tricks, incltid
ing '* biuffing." and then when th* game Mfl
lost calmlv drew down their utakes with Iho
remark that they were under obligations to th .ir
,-on-titucnts ?iot to gambTe-unless they had a
MN thing. Bo these two young men have at
tainod emineiice early. But it is a rather
ticklish eininence. We do not doubt that they
havo tried to act oo/isa-ientioiwly. But their
conscientiaiusness is of that questionable sort that
slumbers while the game is in progross, aml
wakes into sudden activity when it is lost. Had
they won there would have been no demonsna
tion. We shall not stop to inquire whether, if
their votes had boen nei-essary to elect Mr. Crisp,
their scrupies would havo boen so insuperablc or
their stand so heroic.
The positi-n they have taken is quite abovu
the standards that govorn political BfllBlfHrflB.
It is qttito oonspiciious. lt might make men
!.'-s s.-lf-rontained a little dixzy. But they are
young, frosh and lltient. Wo shall look witli
interest to see how they treat the nexb _______ M
well as how the next flflflflflfl treats them.

Speaker CrLsp has a big job in makin* up his
committees and flotLsfyiny all the demands made
upon him. Hut that. task will not be a oircuni
stanec to the work of keeping the Noils" in order
when tha Democratio majorlty of 14. settle down
to what they will call business.
Now, what is the use of David B. Hill _ worry
ing himself about rnaking thc next LeKislaturc
Demoeratic ? It is commonly stipposed that he
wr.nts to pavc thc way for thc election of a Denio
cratic Senator in view of his own Frcsidential
aspirations. But just suppose for a moment.
Suppose that Hill should get ^lie Democratio nomi
nation next year. Suppose, too, tbat by some
chance, now so remotc as to be inapprcianle, he
should be electcd Prcsident. In that evcnT, would
thero be any n"0__*ity for him to resigu his Scnator
ship? Not the slightest. In fact, hc could much
more easily hc at once 1 .eiideut and Senator, than,
an at present, Senator and (.overnor, jtince his
diities would then all be in Washington, wbereas
now he must, to bc faithful to his doubie truat.
he in both Washington and Albany at the same

The verdiot of the Coroner's jury in the caae
of Stratton, the fastcr, who reeently starved
himself to death in a dime nuiseum, is none taw
s<>vere. Such exhibitions should, indecd, lie re
g-irded as " demonilizing and criminal,"' and it
would be well ir thc sugjrestiou of the physicians
whose opiniou is thus ofticially record.d were
carried out, and they were prohibitcd by law. Of
all tha morbid " attractions" that dime museiima
offcr, proi.ably none exercises a more positively
l.aneful in.lueii.~ on tlie fr. .'iient-TB ..f such places
than th.'se deliberate wairers of life itself. New
