WE DO NOT believe there is going to be war between the people and the United States government. If there is, of course the govern- ment will be whipped, along with its regular army and everything that belongs to it, though the late effort to that end was peculiarly disastrous. We allude, of course, to the census disturbance, regarding which 2 good many editors have greatly alarmed themselves. Soraz of the questions asked by the enumerators are more or less exaspera..ng; but the citizen can answer as suits him best, and perhaps if he docsn't answer he will undergo no danger of arrest or bastile. the few who refuse to assist in it Most people want a census, and are d'sappointing the majority rather A PARAPHRASED ORDER.

Then, too, the man with the book and pen doesn’t want moncy—he only wants information. Think of that, good citizen, and pray, pray don’t inaugurate a revolution or any- thing of that unpleasant kind. VICTORY IS VICTORY. [F THERE is a Democratic president next time, or any other time, the JUDGE hopes he will remove the Republican office-holders under him as promptly as the good of the civil service will permit, and place the responsibility of otfice-holding in the hands of as good Democrats as he may select. The majority of the voters of these states do not displace presidents, but administrations. Censure belongs not half as much to the leader as to his subordinates. Repeated changes are necessary to good government, national, state, county and town, The temptations of office are great, and the prayer of every good man is to be delivercd from long continued temptation. Party organization is proper and obli the reward of office is a proper following of good party work. The safety of the government lies with its politicians, of whom every voter is one, and the politicians have a right to all the flags and guns of the opposition which they have beaten. Up with the flags of Republicanism and De- mocracy, and may the best party win and enjoy its victory! SEE HERE, CZAR! THE CZAR promises to ameliorate the sufferings of the prisoners in Siberia. The best way to ameliorate is to give men suspected of treason a fair, free, and full trial, the fact being that two-thirds of the convicts have had no trial at all. And by that means, Aleck, you can vindicate your own right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. NOW AND IN ’92, THE REPUBLICANS of the state committee who met in this city the other day were blessed with the usual amount of harmony and enthusiasm. We do not remember of any gather- ing of Republicans that was utterly a unit with regard to every man of the party and every principle at issue; but there is one principle that must be sustained in every organization in or- der to insure s—the plans of the majority must rule and the swear- ing must be got through with before the beginning of a campaign. A few leading Republicans, among them some who are not as much Republicans as they were, have kicked against the majority with energy and an ability delightful to witness; but they have the interests of the party at heart just the same, and will get together, with the rest of the boys, with their accustomed velocity when the time comes for action against the enemy. ¢ THE NEXT BROTHERLY STRUGGLE. T IS WELL to question what the next civil war will be about. The cause of the last one was slavery, and that's gone. There can’t be a new war on that issue, and therefore the hysterics of the south over Robert Lee and the confederate flag are not dangerous, though they certainly are not the result of the most accurate judgment. Since 1860 the west has developed. There is a new country out there. Washing- ton is very much further cast than it was then, as is New York. The business and politics of the west have claims that will not be ignored. New York is, of course, the geographical headquarters of business, and nothing can change that; but the capital at Washington is sequestered and out of the way. Will there be secession on the part of the north- western states? Will they fight because of some commercial principle, or jealousy on the part of the effete east? It seems ridicalous; but it is not half as absurd as the fear that the south wants to fight that old fight in behalf of an institution that is dead and can never, never be resurrected. ‘Those issues are buried those sad days, and young men have eyes for the future, not for the past. comicbooks.com
