TO-DAY AND TO-MORROW. EN NEVER honor themselves so much as when they honor the memory of Abraham Lincoln, who is as marked a figure in the second epoch of the republic as Washington was in the first, and who will grow larger until the man of the third comes, not on horseback, but with the dust of humility on his boots and the sweat of uncomplaining patience on his brow, THE MILL WILL GRIND. EN HARRISON, my joe Ben, when we were first acquaint, it seemed that you were talkative, but now we know you ain't.

But yet we know there soon must come from that dammed overflow a thousand thousand names and thoughts, Ben Harrison, my joe. HARRISON—BLAINE. PRESIDENT HARRISON and Mr. Blaine will get along well enough together. They are both great enough to be above those small nd those little ambitiens that have been visited upon them by the too industrious and too narrow newspaper. This will be an Ameri- can administration, and the effort will be to exalt the interests and honor of the country, and not particularly the designs of any individual. Cut this out and paste it on your spec jealousies PRESIDENT AND PARTY. THE JUDGE is more than gratified to extend its greeting to President Harrison and congratulations to the Republican party on his inaug- uration. The four years of Democratic purgatory, with all its uncertain ties, its probable punishments and impossible rewards, is ended. The country feels the serenity of confidence that comes of the resumption of a definite national policy in place of a series of political experiments, ‘The Republican party resumes the seats from which on a false plea it was driven, The “rascality” did not exist, and the prophesied political millennium to follow Democratic success has proven, like the apples of Sodom, delusive to the eye and ashes tothe touch. ‘The treasury accumu- lations said to be so menacing to business have not been relieved. The Democracy, heretofore so clamor- ous for abolition of internal revenue taxes, “as the painful legacy of abhorrent war,” reversed its policy that it might strike a blow at American industries and American labor by the substitution of a re- duction of the tariff. ‘The sem- Dlance of civil service, even within party lines, was abandoned, and political rewards were distributed to political brigands, If a Repub- lican senate had not resisted by its negative the purpose of the admin- istration, humiliating treaties would have been concluded—treaties that gave away not only our rights on the seaboard, but the common rights of humanity for help in disaster and shelter in storm, ‘The adminis- tration, as shown in the publica- tion of the secret debates on the extradition treaty, purposed also to abandon our national right of politi- cal refuge. The outgoing admin- istration, in its brief probation and power, has thus shown its utter incompetency in finance, as in its do- mestic and foreign polic lame and impotent conclusion.” Asa party another duty now con- fronts us. ‘The policy and purpose of Republican organization are re- defined. ‘The protective p ational prosperity, is not to be changed’ A cringing fear or humiliating subserviency to foreign bluster and bravado is not possible or to be expected. Audacity is preferable to cowardice. Self-respect, that generates respect, is the better, It is a duty of the party, having selected its chief, to now stand solid and loyal in supporting him. President Harrison will be powerless if insubordination creeps into the ranks. Disappointed political ambition, whose patriotism commences and concludes with personal preferment, must give way to the broader and better purpose. It is, or should be, fame enough to win success as a private if there are not epaulettes to go around. It is a larger glory to be an unnamed one of “the noble six hundred” than a commander in an unimportant skirmish. The Republican party can and should have full confidence in President Harrison's selection of his administrative assistants. A con- demnation for simply conjectural possibilities is absurd. Future party nt solidarity. Let us have peace, and the higher victory that comes of it. ‘The century. with wonderful appropriateness, ends as it commenced.
