There Is no question that it has deteriorated to marked and lamentable degree within the last three or four months, two opinions of the Transcript are dis creditable, not to the editor of the Tran script, but to the Every Evening. The Transcript hxn simply given form to s comment that Is notorious in regard to the change and decadence of the mongrel mugwump. it Hence the The pnblic interest In the trial of Dr Briggs Is not so mnch personal of the Presbyterians imagine a strong movement In the church for a change more or standards of the church and for a general modification of the drastic dogmas dt the church on some of the very points which Dr, Briggs is being tried for heresy. The case of Dr. Briggs may be easily disputed of. He has taught doc trines contrary to the church as in the Confession of Faith has not. That is a question of fast. The interest of the public in the ease is not whet the church will do with the as some There Is leas radical In the standards laid down of the or he par tlcular case of Dr. Briggs, but what It will do with its obnoxious teachings Will It modify or reiterate them? maimer, the chnrch Itself Is on trial, not Dr. Briggs only. Be Is merely the per Bonification of a general movement, If, may be termed a general dissatisfaction within the chnrch, and the public Inter est Is In the disposition of the church to concede to that. In a The charge that the Republican pri mary was accompanied by bribery, fight ing, trickery, repsatiug, illegal voting, and all of the basest sorts of political debauchery known to tbe ward politician, cannot be denied nor extenuated by the Republican apologists. The Morning News defends the party by making a feeble thrust at the respectable which the Democratic ticket nominated. It says; It may be "genteel'' to arrange a city ticket, for the suffrage of a oily of sixty odd thousand Inhabitants by means of a political committee, but it certainly is not Democratic. The fact ic, however, that it is a straight out, clean-cut tickst of re«pect abl«, honest and capable Democrats nominated by the Democratic association with the advice and approval of ail the Democrats In the oity.aud If those thi not make tbe ticket Democratic at a loss to Imagine how it proved to tbs satisfaction of the editor of by being voted and elected by the Democrats However that may be it is a curions de fence the News makes of the charges of wholesale political corruption and bribery by which He ticket was selected; the presence of money, beer, repeaters tbs hand of Addlcks in the pslgu.
