It Was bffi ■" sunrise on the n.
•f the HUi of July. I took the boat at
Forty-second street, New York, and
crossed to tli" great treat la of the El Do
rado heights. I went down tho bank
about 30 rods to a little iron railing.
Inside of the railing is a email red
at quo, iv winch is set a bronze plan?,
telling that i n that s" u«'. <! \vn by the
liver brink, iiOO feet below, Hamilton's
bead waa laid when Im fell. If was 61
years ago at that hour. Tim light of the
rising tun struck level across the city,
just as it hud flashed in the face of the
falling statesman, He had foolishly or
generously eboaen the wrong pout ion.
Bis enemy stood with the sun at his
back. I said to'myself, What if Burr's
pistol had missed!
Consider the political situation iv the
year 1804. George Clinton, for the sev
enth time governor of New York, was
Hearing tho close* of his term. His
nephew, De Witt Cliutou, ex-senatoi of
the Doited States, a powerful factor,
was mayor of New York city. Jefferson
was in tho lv. t year of bis first terra.
Aarou Burr was rice president of the
United States, but could not be bis own
anccossor. Ho had inoosedod, by an
Intrigue In the fourth presirieutial elec
tion, in tying the electoral vote with
Jefferson, but tho house hail decided In
favor of the latter. Burr had secured
the support of most of the Federal repre
sentatives, not that they bated bin less,
but dreaded Jefferson more.
Vailing back into the vice presidency,
the defeaieil aspirant soon found that
bis intrigue had destroyed hie prestige
With his own party. He bad shown him
self willing to defeat the idol of the
Democracy. Hamilton aud his friends
bad refused to support Uurr, even us a j
measure of political expediency, and it :
was for this reason thut the intrigue
with the Federalists had failed. Burr,
perceiving how matters stood in the
years 1809-B,saw that he nmstclimh into |
the presidency—if »t all—hy tOIDe other i
stairway. John Adams, the first vice |
president, had succeeded Washington. 1
Jefferson, the second, had micceednd j
Adams. Burr, the third, by his impru- j
dent ambition, had kicked down tho
ladder whereby he might havo succeed
ed Jefforson. Such, however, had been
his political skill that ho had pnt New
York iiito the Democratic column. 1
Whether Nriw York could be kept In '
that column and whether Burr, by elect
ing himself governor iv 1804, might
Taalt to tho presidency from the hither
to nntried gubernatorial stepping stone,
depended upon the political complexion
and docision of New York city.
That e:ty held tin; balance of power
Id tho state, and, if In tlie slate, then in
the Union. The decision of tiie city de
pended upon whether Alexander Hamil
ton 01 Aaron Burr had the greater iu
faCSCSV
Hamilton had lately been commander
of the American army—organized for
the SSpejeted war with France. That
war passed with the ascendency of Ilona
parte. Hamilton might well resign his
place as general in chief, return to his
practice in Now York, and await the
swinging 'if the pendulum which should
briny • Federal reaction againstths now
triumphant Jeffersonian Democracy, and
waft him to the high seat as the suc
cessor of Washington and Adams.
Hamilton wan a natural muter. Tho
year ISO 4 found him so situated that he
might thwart burr's purpose to be gov
ernor of New York, uud, if that, then
his higher purpose to he president. Tho
Federalists, for policy, had generally ac
cepted Burr as their candidate for gov
ernor, hut the Influence of the great
leader prevailed, and the election went
to Morgan Lewis. Burr suddenly found
himself iv a wreck. He could he neither
rice president nor governor of New
York, and, if not these, then nothing.
His left wing had heen broken by the
intrigue against Jefferson, and his l ight
was now thrown into the air by the
Federalist defection. Hamilton, in a let
ter to Dr. Cooper, had said that ho had
"udespicable)opinion" of Colonel Burr's
|K)litics. Burr, with assiduous scrutiny,
discovered thus much of an offense. He.
Challenged his mighty rival and killed
llim! But if Hun 's pistol had misted!
In one sense history knows not If.
When hypothesis is introduced into hu
man events, it sigtiihr-s no more than
Out ignorance of the laws that are work
logout the inexorable results of destiny.
There is a sense iv which it, is foolish to
speak of an even! turned in this way or
iv that hy the iu<in purpose and agency
of man. The individual has little lo do
With it. We do not say he has nothing
to do with it. A few men have been
dynamically so great that they havo de
flected the lines of universal causation.
Hamilton was one of these, and, Ifßurr'l
pistol hud missed, the historical forcei
Of the epoch would, we think, have been
ttrikingly changed in their oourso.
Aluxaudur Hamilton was by a greet
measure the strongest intellect, of out
revolutionary age. He was so strong a>
to bo almost dangerous ! Considered as »
thinking machine, neither Jefferson noi
the younger Adams was comparable
with him. Franklin may have beet:
mom capacious, more philosophical,
more humane, us he was far more al
truirtic, but as a conscious thinker ol
clear cut, steel finished thoughts Hamil
ton was beyond compare the greatest ol
them all. He did the constructive think'
ing for the whole era in which he lived.
He cleared aw 'v the debris of the Revo
lotion and laid the foundations of that
Sew political order which we have in
herited. One of the corners was laid on
the quicksands ol' the old political ordei
and went down in 1801 with cataclysm
and fire and red Sashes of blood—went
down to be rebuilt with an expenditure
hard for mankind to bear, for ;-hylock
baa been the architect of the reconstruct
Hon.
Bnt if Bun's pistol had missed)
(jsjasUloa oat the day «•! sua death was
47 years, 6 months and 1 day of age. He
was especially well preserved. Though
(light, bo had a sinewy frame. His tis
ane was clean aud strong, his form sym
metrical, all of his organs perfect in
their functions. He had hardly ever
known sickness. He could not tire. His
mind had aearoely yet risen to the cli
max of energy and < fiiciency. On the
first morning of the nineteenth century
h" was positively the greatest political
factor in America, Jefferson himself
Uot excepted. As for Washington, he
had to the end of his career enacted
Hamilton's thoughts. It was bis uncon
scious policy to do so. We do not recall
a single instance in which the serine
Father of His < ountry depaited material
ly from the policies and loadings of that
statesman whom l o had BtSt met, a boy
lieutenant, ou the day after the retreat
boat Long Island. What if Burr's pistol
had missed !
The Federal party went to a prema
ture death wjth the fail of Hamilton.
That patty had nut measured out its
days, lt VM the party of construct lon,
just as the Democracy hail been the par
ty of destruction. The latter cared not
to build, and tho former cared not to
destroy more.
if Burr's piltol hail missed, tho folly
and feebleness which marked the ileca- I
deuce of Federalism Won Id not have
come. Can any ono suppose that in tho t
first administration of Alexander Ham
ilton ("President Hamilton" would havo
sounded well!) his party would havo
stooped to the Hartford convention?
That body was only a residual aggrega
tion of malcontent New England ship- ;
owners and merchants—a kind uot
much given to patriotism. The mortal !
folly once committed, the Federal party j
000 Id live no longer. Had it uot been |
committed, the party would probably
have survived and triumphed. It would !
not have been committed if Burr's pis
tol had missed!
Note the position of the Wh igsduring
tho Mexican war. Bid they oppose that
war? Ask tho eloquent ghost of Corwiu,
Did they, then, after their opposition,
take up tho war and furnish most of
tho talent and patriotism needed fur its
victorious conclusion? Certainly. And :
with what result? With Taylor and
Fillmore iv tho presidency, with tho j
greatest Whig cabinet ever known and
with at least a prospect of success as
lalo as the deaths of Clay and Webster, j
The Federalists tinder Hamilton, lato
general iv chief of the American army,
would not have failed to bo loudest and
strongest in the war of IHI2. lv that
event the treaty of Ghent, instead of
being the most inconsequential anil ab
surd compact ever done into diplomat ioal
history, would havo been a real treaty,
in which the largo doctrines of tho
treaty of Paris of 1858 would have been
forestalled hy 41 years. Free (lags would
have made freo goods on all tho seas,
and free goods under any flag would
have been exempt from Spitsbergen to
Kosurio, from tho strait of Malacca to
Hudson bay.
If Burr's pistol had missed, the divi
sion and evolution of political parties In
America would have been simple und
rational. There would havo been a con
structive party, strong in its sympathies
for a general power extending over the
nation antl weak in its sympathies for
lcx'al Independence. There would havo
been a party great in its attachment to
local independence and indifferent to
centralized dominion. From this mid
dle lino of division the two parties
would have stood off on the ono side
and tho other, contending quadrennial
ly, biennially and uuuually for power
and too spoils of office. There would
havo been a simple Democratic principle
in America on the ono hand, contend
ing with the simplified Federalist prin
ciple on the other. With the fall of
Hamilton the letter principle became
confused, indistinct, fimbriated, of no
effect—until the slnx.-k of the civil war
evoked it iv a new form aud mado it
masterful. Federalism, in a word, went

to pieces, and the opposition to th*»
Jeffersoman theory and practice became
chaotic—because Burr's pistol did not
miss!
It were not extravagant to say that
with Alexander Hamilton in the presidency
| dency from the year 1809 to the year
181J !}•» evil war would never bate
bl iD. Ii appears that events would have
1 takea another course. Monroe, iv that
event, might have been a possibility,
but not Jackson. The sword, in that
event, might still have hung by'ho con
st nutioti m the executive mansion, but
not the bow,e knife! lv that event, John
Qaiocy Adams might hats hum, or even
Vsn Boras, bflt DOt Polk and much less
Buchanan! In that event, Democracy
COD Id hardly have been so wedded to
slavery as to suggest the dissolution of
; iho l.'niou in order that one-half might
be built forever on human servitude. In
that event, Federalism must have be
come imbued witn tho principles of free
dom to the degree that the abolition of
slavery throughout the British empire
would not have preceded tho liko hu
manity iv the American republic by tho
full space of a lifetime.
As it was, the civil war must come.
The nation must -offer a tempest of firo
Snd a delugo of blcxid. Burr's weapon j
1 did uot miss, and the civil war began
with the pistol shot at Wechawkeu! I
i stood at sunrise on the July morning
and heard it again as in 1804. The first
gun was uot lired from the shore at
Charleston against the side of Sumter,
but was leveled by the relentless, steady
aud dastardly hand of Aarou Burr
; against, the broast of the greatest Amer
ican of his age—him whom the jealous
John Adams once stigmatized as "that
brat of a Scotch peddler!"

Chino Ranch
In 10, 20, and 40-Acre Tracts and Upward— The Chino Ranch has a national as well as a stale reputation as 3
principality unsurpassed for fertility. The direct results obtained from cultivation of the sugar beet alone place a
permanent and s-olij value on the land. Remember the beet crop takes but five months' time from planting to
harvest, and the immense return from this great product is well known. A ready market is right at hand and
there can be no failure in prices. The land we offer, however, is equally suited to the growth ol deciduous and
citrus fruits, and investigation can but satisfy you that this acreage is unquestionably the finest in all of this
great Mate of California. Subdivisions of size to suit purchasers are offered at prices that guarantee an im
mediate profit upon investment, and notwithstanding tiiis fact, the terms of payment are absolutely easy,
making a purchase possible and within the reach of all who are prepared, in working, to do the land justice.
