Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, member of parliament for Birmingham, and recent negotiator of a proposed fishery treaty between the United States and England, as guardian of its Can: n ward, was mistaken barptised up de ribber, en de pahson's weak.” when he said ina recent speech, ‘the representative men of of all classes, and of the different nationalities of which tt the United States is composed, with but few exceptions,” of the policy of Mr. Gladstone. this additional proof that to the English observer the people and institutions of this country most difficult to understand.

The present administration is the “an one since the republic has been a nation. The subserviency, through the preponderating influence of southern statesmen, seems to have taken a shape of gratitude for the pre. mpathy of the ruling classes across the sea in the dis. astrous confederate struggle of the ruling classes on this side. The south look upon the aristocratic English moral support extended them with the keenness of memory and reciprocity of rej unforgettingly extend to France for its helpfulness in desperate need. In this way the real condition of publi seen through Mr. Chamberlain's single eye-glass, is warped and dis. torted. sted, fattened, flattered and fawned upon, w nourishing warmth could be absorbed than this, to feed complaisant and stalwart growth of English egotism? To the p American citizen, removed from the distorting atmosphere of the capi: tal city, Mr. Chamberlain's rhetorical vanities and sel} vaporings are both amusing. The very essence and inspiration of Am politics and policy is home rule. It begins in the caucus, is defined in the municipality, in the county | lature, and takes definiteness in the state. Even the national gov. ernment is limited and prescribed within the bounds of delegated powers which the stutes have not reserved to themselves. Furthermore, the point of divergence is in the p the contending political par opposition to the ultimate Democratic tendency of free trade, and therefore direct taxation for federal expenses, as against the Republican pol untary taxation, through a tariff by collecting only of the consumers of foreign products or luxuries. No honest American can favor and foster home rule on this side of the Atla and sympathize with its opponents on the other. Yet it is possible, in fact probable, that the great mass of our adopted citizens of the nationality that Mr. Chamberlain derides as incompetent for self-government would strike a blow at the great party that through ncoln emancipated labor here, and is now sympathetically helpful in its struggle everywhere. If Mr. Cham- berlain were to become a naturalized citizen of the United States his incor rigible and irrepressible anti-home rule and free-trade convictions, combined with his desire to serve the Canadian dominion, would make him a Democrat. +e are most un-Ameri Democrat Dis meks.d* nth. ‘She's got in de habit ob gittin’ Tue Jupor’s REGULAR circulation in Paris is about a hundred copies a week, but the JupGE will not give its support to Boulanger until the republic is totally gone.

THE MUGWUMP JOURNAL which indorses Cleveland as a choice between evils damns its selection with the faintest of praise and the largest of condemnation, and openly advertises the fact that it is ashamed of its choice. {7 WAS REMARKED about a hundred years ago that America Was not created for the special purpose of being the creature of Enzland, and we suspect that will be shown over again in the impending national contest at the ballot-box. comicbooks.com
