THE TRUE INWARDNESS.

vcstlgUing committee at Lincoln , and
has given what ho claims to bo the
"iruu inwardness" of hie interest In
the Block of the Otnaba llrpnblban
Ho claims that hie purchase was tmdu
at the instance of Jay Gould who
detlrrd to consolidate THE BKK and
Republican according ton proposition
tntiiu him by llisewatcr , that the
plan fell through btciuto tull'uiont

publican , and thcuouitlng its editor In
casu ho refused to not ts the tool of the

THE DEMOCH JUIC HOI F.
It is too enrly yet tn'j culculiito ihu
chances of tlio ncx1. presidential cam
paign but the durnoor.ita are not at all
backward about claiming Iho victory
in udvanco tf the election. Homo ru-
public-ana , top , are not moro Inc'iwurd
in conccdit g it , while olhtr.i are rf the
opinion that the content will bo more
uncertain and ixcilint ; than any of llr
prcd.cQ38or0.
No observer of the political situation
will deny tint the diaorganizitlon ol
the republican party ia tlio chluf hope
of the democracy. It is generally believed -
liovod that the republic in manager *
have lost control'Tftur thair foroos and
annot count ou the undivided cup-
iort of the rank and file in
ny of the doab ful sta en of the

881 iind win the fijht against 11
nited and sptila famlsliod democracy.
But what ett'orts'havo been tuado to
armonizo the discordant elements cl
opublicanlam. In congroca the same
Id differenced crop out in strong
iiitagonhim. Thu party is dl
idcd on the tar 11' , on the
ucalion of internal revenue
eduction and on n dozin miuoi
oints which go to make up a nationa
ollcy. There is a factional conical
vor almost every presidential appointment
mont , and hardly a country poatmas
or receives his oimmiaslon without a
oorocf protests and tllidivits lion
iontending ropublioAns. In a half i
ozon aUtos the party is split up ovei
merely local questions , which will
ovortholoss , bfloot the vote on na
lonal issues. And the woist is tha
hero aeems to bo no movement to
wards conciliation , and no percjptibli
ondonoy In the dlrcc'.lon ' of harmony
It must , however , bo romomborci
, hat the republican disaffection of las
'all was not in any souse duo to return
ng conlidcnco in the democracy
i'lftcon hundred thousand republican
Ithor stayed at homo or voted for op
oiitton candidates because they won
disgusted with their own party man
goment ; not because thiy wor
iloascd with the policy or porformauc
f the domocrata. Theao million am
a half valors cannot bo expected t
ihango f jith and support the demo
iratlo nominees in 1881 upon iho urn
basis as they opposed the ropublloa :
andldatos in 1882. If the domoorac
can offer no greater bid for ropubll
o\n votes tluu more promises of fulur
Dsifotnnnco they are not likely tool
tain them. Up to the present tlm
the democrats have done neil
Ing to socnro public conGdonc
and to make the future sun
la congress they are as devoid of
policy as the republicans. They ai
hopelessly split up on the tarl
question. The majority of vote
against the civil aorvioo bill oarao froi
democrats , and the shipping bill coul
havnbeon navod if their loaders ha
had the courage to make a fight f <
American Commercial Interests. 1
the three republican states of Ne
York , Massachusetts and Pcunaylvi
nla , where democratic governors we :
elected last fall , there is general dl
gust at the failure of the loud pror
isea of reform made by the victor
New York Is said to be cfluVcd wll
the moat worthless legislature whli
ever gathered at Albany. Governi
Butler's chief applause was gained I
his audacious Inaugural , and Govern
PAttiion of Pennsylvania has sot at
defiance every principle of the civil
service reform which ho trnmpottod
to loudly while a candidate for office.

mounts on the average of $4,000 a

xpenao whatever , as Mr. Abbey puya
verything. On a basis of fifty con-

cave him , after paying Modjeekn , 45
or cent of the groui , or siy a bast
ees e f $7,000 , which is not &u exag-
eratcd one , $3,160. Ho can run the
u&ineea for $1,150 easily , which
rould leave him a profit on the grand
veragB of $2,000 a week for the thirty
weeks ? 00OCO From this most bo

urns in the spring to the Fifth ave-
uu theater. Mrs. Lintry'a contract
ith Henry E. Abbey Is to receive
)3 ) per cent of the gross recoipta each
light. Mr. Abbey paya the company
iiid all other'Xponaoa. Supposing n
maineaa of $1,5CO a night and thus
ir the receipts have exceeded that , as
ilrs. Lyigtry pays no moro than other
Iramntia alars she would ba recoiv-
ng $3 600 a week. Whether the
msinesa will keep up when curiosity
B satiated is questionable , but oven
.bus far Mra. Lingtry has received
'or her share in Now York , Boston ,
3rooklyn , Philadelphia and Chicago
sorno $30,000 ; that eutn will probably
) o trebled be fore aho loaves hero. Mr.
Abbey , on the other hand , has 07 per
cent , or $5,200 a week. Snppos-
eg ho pays an average of 27
icr cent f jr theatres , this would
eave him 40 per cent , or $4,200 a
reek. Ho can run the company and
I'B other exports easily on $1,200 ,
which would glvo him a profit ot $3-
009 a week. But there are large cities
where ho has to pay morn , say 30 and
15 per cent of the gross fur theatres.
Even then , on a season cf thirty
veoke , supposing business to fall off ,
10 can come nut winner of from $30-
000 to $ GOCOO at the end of the sea
son on his contract. These are large
anma. It is interesting to note that
our stars will carry with them out ci
the country $350,000 by the time thie
