A POSITION WELL TAKEN.
Di5cnss;x3 Blaine's chances for
the Chicago nomination and presiden
tial nominations in general, the S. F.
Bulletin of the loth makes an excel
lent point. It says:
"But whoever is nominated, it is to
bs hoped that the Republican na
tional convention will not fall into
the mistake which has already been
the cause of some sad passages in our
history. It has been the custom of
both parties to give the vice presi
dency to the defeated wing of the
party. Johnson was placed on "the
ticket with Lincoln, on his second
nomination for the presidency, to con
ciliate the war Democrats, Arthur
was placed on the ticket with Gar
flsld to appease the defeated stal
warts. Remotely this led to the
assassination of two presidents of the
United States. If we go further back
in our history other dark pages will
bs found referable to the' same cause.
There is a reasonable probability that
Buchanan came near losing his life
by poison. The mystery of the Na
tional hotel has never been cleared
up. If he had passed away, the gov
ernment would have fallen to Breck
inridge who, as vice president, subse
quently seceded and joined the robeK
When two men representing antag
onistic interests are placed in the
condition of ruler and heir-apparent,
the death of the former gives all the
power and patronage to the latter.
Wilkes Booth, the crank, thought
that if President Lincoln were
removed, Johnson, who would
succeed him, would be more lenient
to the South. But the reverse was
the result. Johnson, under the pres
sure of national exasperation, was,
perhaps, harsher than Lincoln would
have been. But this did not prevent
him from intriguing to place his wing
of the party in power. Guiteau
reokoned quite logically that the re
moval of Garfield would give the ad
vantage to Arthur and the stalwarts."
"There will be a defeated wing at
the Republican convention which is to
assemble at Chic ".go, June 3d. The
proposition will be to give the vice
presidency to that defeated wing.
But in the light of past history a
strong protest will be entered against
any such arrangement This dispo
sition of the vice-presidency does not
conciliate anybody. No defeated
delegation returns to its homes pla
cated because one of its leaders has
got the vice-presidency, and may by
accident or otherwise be advanced to
the presidency. If Blaine is nomi
nated, a Blaine man, or at least a
friend and co-worker, should be put
on the ticket with him. If somebody
else should win, the vice-president
Bhould be taken from the circle of
his immediate friends. "We have gone
about far enough on the old path,
and know to our cost where it too
often leads."
The able editors of the London
newspapers, who govern Gladstone
and kindly take charge of the United
States have, of course, drawn 'a les
son" from the Cincinnati note. At
the distance of three thousand miles
they have, in the pleulihido of their
wisdom, made a political diagnosis of
the situation and arrived at the con
clusion that the republic has barely
escaped a great poril. Visions of the
Commune rise up before their start
led imaginations. Let them possess
their souls in peace. The republic
stands, and will stand. Cincinnati is a
great city and Ohio is a great state,
but if oity and state should disappear
to-morrow the country would run
along in the same old-fashioned way.
It is absurd to talk of the Commune
in America.- That is an imported ar
ticle. It is on the free list at present;
but if it should be made to pay a" spe
cific or ad valorem duty, what a cal
amity for the European continent!
Bismakck complains that "the tele
graph fearfully multiplies his work,
and that heing 70 years old he Las
not the time to be uuctuous." The
orusty old gentleman makes a great
mistake. The telegraph does not iu
orease his labors one particle. On
the contrary, it serves to lighten
them. He should blame himself and
not the cables and the telegraph
lines. Why did he get into a row
with our hog? "Why does he bother
himself about the French Eepublio,
the Nihilists in Russia and the pope
in Eome? The best thing he cau do
is to come to Astoria this summer
and eat some of the finest salmon in
the world. He will find that the
German nation will run along beauti
fully while he feeds on Clatsop clams.
The late debt statement shows that
the bonds issued to the several Pacific
railroad companies amount to $61,
623,000; the interest on these bonds
paid by the government amounts to
$61,160,000, and of this latter sum
there has been refunded to the gov
ernment by the companies in trans
portation service $17,936,009, and in
5 per cent payments on their net
earnings, 8655,000.
.
Havaka journals thank the Ameri
can government for its kindly and
sympathetic feeling toward Spain.
They say there is no doubt but Sec
retary Prelinghuysen may be relied
-upon to act as did Secretary Hamil
ton Fish towards these Cuban revo-Ittionist.
The plank in the Democratic plat
form concerning the tariff is an il
lustration of the truth of Gen. Han
cock's remarks in August, 1880, which
a good many people think made him
lose the presidency "the tariff is
only a local issue." It is as true in
'81 as it was in '80.
Aueport at Victoria, B. C, has it
that a syndicate has been formed to
build and operate the Hudson Bay
Railway line, to be carried through
Fort Simpson, in British Columbia.
mm
The endorsement of Tilden auu
Hendricks at The Dalles was thor
oughly Democratic. That party is
forever looking over its shoulder as
it stumbles along.
It is said that Lincoln imagines
that he ought to head the Republi
can ticket, and he is not much pleased
with his mention in connection with
the second place.
