THE democratic platform is good

Tim Herald insists that Marshal Cum-
tninijs must go because ho was appointho
by Ghaso. For the uamo reason the
street commissioners , the city engineer ,
the city attorney , and nearly every po-
Jicoman in the city would haveto go.
AK naual the democratic party has com
mitted a blunder. The nomination of
Cleveland in the face of the pronounced
opposition of John Kelly and the back
bone of democracy will provo fatal. The
democrats will have to gnaw the bono

that has been out in the cold for twenty-

Tlio first of n eorics of Sunday afternoon -
noon concerts was given in Central l'.irk
in Now York City last Sunday , and it is
estimated that fully sixty thousand people -
plo listened to the enchanting music of
the Seventh regiment band , nnd other
wise passed the afternoon in pleasant
recreation , And breathed the fresh nir
laden with the fragrance of the park. It
is said that fully throo-fourths of the vast
throng wore from the masses who slave
from daylight until dark , BIX day * in the
week. The assemblage is aptly described
as "a great big labor-union picnic , with
out the boor and lunch-baskets , without
the rabble and tlio rowdies , but quiet and
orderly , and nrraycd in their best holiday
attire. " It was indeed a joyous scene.
Although the musical programme was of
rather a sacred nature , nnd perhaps hard
ly suited to the majority , yet tnoy listen
ed to it with genuine pleasure bocausb it
was music. When anything popular , al
though of a strictly religious nature ,
caught their oar , they applauded vocifer
ously. When the cornoliat played
"Nearer My God to Thee , " hundreds
followed him with the song.
Such incidents ns thcao would form n
good text for n strong sermon ia favor of
making Sunday a day of innocent recrea
tion and amusement. Ono of the great
problems of this country is how to regu
late the observance of Sunday without
infringing upon poraonnl rights , and sub
jecting people to needless restraints , to
ivluch they will not submit. It ia a fact
that not moro than onu-tonth of our pop
ulation are strictly church-going people ,
nnd even the church-goers , when they
nro able to do BO , seek recreation on
Sunday in various ways that nro not
strictly in nccord with orthodoxy. The
rich ride in their carriages to nnd from
the church , nnd spend the afternoon and
evening in driving about the city and
through the suburbs. But the great
mass , the working people , who are com
pelled week in and week out to labor nnd
struggle in factories and shops
for a bare oxiatoncc , or lay brick
nnd mortar , or grade and pave the
jtrcota in the burning nun , muot have a
Par different day of rest than the ortha-
lox Sunday. A day of rent does not
moan n day of church going. It n. canon
3ay of recreation , The .Idifliculty is to
Die difliculty ia to find that rccroa-
ition that will bo the least demoralizing ,
tn Europe , where there is probably
| ust as much religious zeal as there ia in
; his country , the fact has long ngo boon
ocognizsd that the people must have
Sunday , or a part of the day for harmless
recreation. While the churches extend
.n invitation to all for an hour or two ,
ho res ; of the day ia given up to family
mjoyraout. The libraries , nrt gnllories
nd museums nro thrown open , the pub-
io parks nnd gardens nro thronged ,
oncorts are given auch ns that in Central
ark last Sunday , nnd entertainments of
musical and theatrical character are c
.old in the various places of nmuao-
( iont. Commercial business , however ,
s very generally suspended.
The nutlioritiou of Now York cor-
ainly deserve great praise for the stop
lioy have taken in the direction of mak-
ig Sunday what it ought tobo [ ,
-n day of recreation a day that will
nablo ihu'workingman to obtain needed
: st nnd recuperation for tha coming
ook's work n day on which ho can take
is family from the crowded tenement
juso into the fresh air to listen to in-
tiriting music get a breath of fresh
r , and participate in innocent amuse-
cuts. Such a Sunday will make the
orkingman happier nnd moro contented ,
id the day will always bo looked forCl
ard to with genuine pleasure. In Boa-
in and Philadelphia the Sunday nftar-
aon concert has also boon introduced
id it will soon bo a pleasing feature in
rory largo city of this country. It will
wo the way for the popular Sunday a
ty which shall include in its programme
) t only religious observance for
ho desire it but innocent amusement
r everybody. The Puritanical Sunday
no longer suited to the progressive
irit of the ago , and it must go.
THE TUIiN.FEST.
The Germans are n robust , healthy
loplo both in body and mind. From
no immemorial they hnvo fostered od-
latlonal methods in which mind and
idyaro trained nnd developed in unison. ' "
lia was in Europe the foundation of w
o gymnasia , where the German youths in
are compelled to become as proficient
athletic exorcises as they wore in their tl
udlos. This systematic co-education of
aiu nnd body has boon in a great moas-
: o transplanted into America by
ganizod Gorman gymnastic societies.
\ almost every city of this country there
: o gymnasiums and Turner halls devoted
) physical and mental culture. Ono of h
10 moat agreeable features of the Tur-
or life is the annual festival in which
iQ members of the various local socle-
les participate nnd compote. The
'urnors of the principal cities of
*
lie Missouri
valley nro now
olding their annual turiifost in this city ,
nd Gorman-Americans regard it as an
vent of unusual interest. It is 'the first
othoring of the kind that has token place
j this city since the completion nf the
ew Gormauia hall , founded -by the
'urnors. The citizens o ! Omaha , ro-
ardloss of nationality , will extend u
earty welcome to the visiting societies
{ the neighboring cltloi of the Missouri
alloy , The American people are grad-
ally baginning to appreciate the ad-
outages of gymnastic training , although
s yet they are sadly bohlnd the Germans
i the method of physical eulturo.
They ore too much engrossed ia money
otting and professional labor to spurn
lie necessary time for gymnastics , They
onteut themselves with simply enoourag.
ig the national game nf b sa ball , which
t best only alTords oiorciso for a few
professionals , whoso aim is moro to oarr
money , by the entertainment of a crowd ,
than to develop 'mental or physical facul
ties. It is only when a clam like the Ger
mans manifest a live interest in rational
recreation and exorcise that the American
mind is directed to the defects of our
present system of education and training.

OTHER LANDS 'J.11AXOVJIS.
The surrender of Khartoum to Kl Mah <
di's forces has been announced from Cairo ,
coupled with contradictory reports about
General Gordon , who is represented in
ono of the dispatches ns a prisoner nnd
and guosljin thocampof thoFalsoProphot ,
while according to another report the gen
eral has boon cruelly put to death.
There would bo nothing , indeed , sur
prising in Uio fall of Khartoum. When
the world last had tidings of Gordon he
had retreated within the strong walla oi
the Catholic mission , where , amid the
tlato palms and the orange trees , ho could
look out on the Blue Nile and the dotort
and watch for the carnola of the English
relieving forco. His patience may at any
moment have given way. Weary of In
action , impatient of holding back a garri
son from the forces with they wore long
ing to fraternize , fearful lost the fate of
the Berber garrison should befall them ,
lie may have sent n Ihg of truce to the
Muhdl , and conditionally surrendered the
jatcs of the city. *
As it cannot bo certainly told even yet
vhother Khartoum hai or has not boon
turrondorcd the other stories which come
rom Egypt are equally doubtful. There
nust , however , bo n basis of truth in
hcso rumors , and it ia not giving literal
irodonco to any of them to say thar , taken
cqothor , they denote a very serious aiuj
ionfidont uprising of the Egyptian * and
> f the tribes of the desert against the
'oroignora and the Egyptian partisans of
, ho foreigners. The revolt of Arabi wni
ocal , and amounted to little moro than a
iot. The present rising extends over
Jppor Egypt and the Soudan , nnd has
) con for months in preparation. The
> olitic.il blunders of Great Britain have
nero than neutralized the effect of
lor military successes. The eng
nal intervention , under protonao ol
caton'ng order in Alexandria , was a
; rcat blunder. The occupation , with tin
ssumption of a receivership of Egypt
ras a still greater blunder. The laal
top bound Great Britian to crunh out nl.
isaflbction. What Etiglind did was to
ppcl the attacks of the malcontent par
isans of the Mahdi. After repelling
liruo , instead of either going on to com-
loto the conquest of the country or
Uo retiring and washing their hands of
Igyptinn affairs , Great Britain withdrew
or forces from Suakin , leaving Gordon
i the trap in which ho had been in-
need by assurances of support from the
avornmont to put himself. No sourao
> uld bo better calculated to bring Great
ritain into contempt with the rebels
jainst her pretensions to rule Egypt ,
s a receivership the British occupation
: Kgypt has boon unprofitable ; as
inquest it has been ridiculous.
, All Englishmen who are not blinded
y party spirit must fool this , and all
ich Englishmen must bo moved to in-
ignation by the tenor of the news from
10 East , even though they cannot dis-
iminato the nucleus of truth in it from
10 cloud of exaggeration.
The rejection of the franchise bill by
10 house of lords is likely to hasten the
repressible conflict between Briaiah
istocraoy and the people.
Libouchoro'a notice of "a resolution dc
winR the necessity of reform in the
IUHO of lords , to prevent the rejection
measures passed by the commons , " is
iportant only as indicting the growing
ntimont in favor of reducing the upper
mich of parlimont to a merely orna-
ontal appendage. As yet this senti
ent is not sufllciontly widespread and
grolaivo to produce rrsults , but it is
natuntly increasinfi , and within the
st ton years has made great progress
nong all classes except those who have
personal interest in keeping things as
oy nro. There is little doubt , oven

o throe kingdoms , and the question

0 IHUIBO of lords would bo either wiped
t altogether , or deprived of all of its
portant political function ! ) . England
yet far enough uway from republican-
n , but still no.ir enough to hnvo n very
Linonncod dislike for "
"hereditary Jcgis-
rors ; " these who , by rght of birth
me , are consecrated law-makers for
j community.
Prejudice especially strong ogainat
lat are called "tho lords spiritual ; "
it is , the prelates of the established
urch , who , by virtue of their nacred of-
o , are permitted to manage pro'fano af-
rs. The avurago English layman can
t understand why the servant of Him
10 daid , "My kingdom is not of this
irld , " should find it necessary to assist
the administration of a worldly em-
re ; why they are not content , as were
u apostles , to "render unto Caesar the
a things that are Caesar's , " and concon-
Uo their physical and mental energies
on the care of souls , "Tho lords spir-
ial" have long boon regarded , in many
artora , as the survivors of an ago of
mclad ecclesiasticism which has depart-
to return no moro ; and whenever
Is reform of the upper house fairly sots
they will bo the tirst to ieol its offooU ,
the slmpo of a "notice to quit. "
Meanwhile , Gladstone has recently
oppod some remarks which show that ,
lilo ho is willing to lot the lords alone
the lot him alone , ho will stand no fno-
> us opposition from them.
A qulot but resolute resistance to the
; idarmy requirements in Germany has
st come to light. It appears that ova-
ma of military service have become so
mmon as to threaten the success of the
lire system. In all over 150,000 evans -
> ns , for different requirements of the
rvico , are reported , and whLo many of
em have boon punished , many moro
ivo gone unchallenged. The Empooror
reported to bo greatly enraged , and to
1 disposed to punish the ofliuers having
10 enforcement ot army regulations in
largo , Evidently , however , the evil
IUB beyond thoso. So largo a percent
; e of resistance proves the people to be
ttorly opposed to the plan. This is fur-
ipr shown by the tide of emigration to
iis country , Despite the active efforts
the government to pnivont it , ex-Min-
ter Sargent thinks it will bo as Urge
iis year as at any previous timo. All
iis points to ono conclusion that the
joplo are opposed to military service.
The power of Germany is in her army.
i it the best form in which that poiror
can bo conserved ? The peculiar states
manship of Blsmttrck probably nccosai
tatos any army to back it. But were the
good soneo nnd genius of the Gorman
people aliened sway it is fair to pr aumc
thn Germany will bo equally powerful ,
with Its ! military discipline. No doubt ,
with Europe as it ia n great army ie
needed. But were Europe to largely
disarm , Germany would bo fully ns
strong , with only the nucleus of an
army. Evidently her army is sapping
the lifo of the nation. It ia too largo ,
too pervasive , and calls the people away
from labor too much , and HO is unpop
ular.
_ The triennial elections to the Hunga
rian Diet have boon hcldand the _ roault
is ft now dccisivo victory of the cabinet of
Coleman Thza , nnd of the liberal party ,
which supports it. This result was , in
fact , never doubtful , though the election
contests were carried on in various parts
of the country with a fury generally char
acteristic only of struggles the issue of
which depends upon the result in a few
districts. In this instance the wild ani
mosity , which was productive of scandal
ous and oven bloody outrages , was origi
nally only on the side of the turbulent
radical minority which calls itself the extreme -
tromo loft , or independence party , and
It was the fury of cxisporatcd weakness.
The nnti-Somltic crazs y.T another
source of ungovernable irritation. The
supporters of the government cndaidntos
woroof ronr3onotoveracrupuloua in thoU
choice of moans for repelling insult nnd
Violence. The complete figures of the
general result , not being telegraphically
reported , have nut yet reached us , but
only a few of the decisions by the ballot
are yet unknown hero. Thorohnvo been
elected : Liberals , 221 ; independents ,
07 ; members of the moderate opposition ,
57 ; anti-somites , 17 ; nationalists ( Slavs ,
Roman B and Saxons ) , li ( , no-party men ,
11. The liberal ) will thus have n mnjor-
'lylntho next diet overall opponents
tombined of nearly forty , whicfi almost
exactly corresponds to the Konoral result
of the elections of 1881. The difference
in regard to the conservative opposition ,
the nationalists and the no-party men is
sigulficatn ; the independents alone have
loat a number of seals , moat of which
have probably boon won by anti-somites
that is , by candidates who exchanged
the banner of anti-Austrian irreconcila-
bios for that of Jow-baitors.
Now that Franco ia trying to provoke
China to a renewal of hostilities it is in
teresting to note the remarkable friend
ship whichGermany has of late oxhib
itcd toward China. As a striking proo. '
of the high regard which exists nt Rerlii
for the government nt Pokin in the faol
that the two corvets Ting Yuen nnd
Chen Yuen , constructed nt Stotin foivtho-
GhincBO government , are about to leave
for the Eastern Pacific under command
of two German naval oflicera , Sobelin
nnd Mellor , bearing the rank of Corvot
Captains ; also to the further fact that a
third Ironclad , tho'fsi Yuen , still on the
atpcks of the Vulcan company at Stettin !
will also bo taken out next full by a Ger
man naval officer , Capt. Wnhrondor/ ,
with the express permission of the Em
peror , whojias crnntod him the usual
pension , with Ipayo to wear his uniform.
Ocpt. Sebolin , it is also stated , has en
tered into an engagement to serve the
3hineso government for tlirco years at a
mlary of 25,000 marks per annum , in nd-
litiou to which he and each of his cal-
oagues will receive the num of 20,000
narks for simply taking out the ironclads
; o their destination. It is expected that
ill three officers will remain in China for
lovoral ycnrs.
Seventy years ago this spring the Nor.
wcgians agreed to a uti'on between them
selves and too. S wo lea on the basis of a
common sovereign. Each country reserved
served to herself perfect independence
is to her interior affairs ; nnd in nowise
lid the act of union restrict the true
jarliamontary1 functions of the legislative
: > odie.s of cither country. Johan Svor-
Irup's accession to power means the
inal defeat of the political system by
irhich four successive kings have tried
o amalgamate Norway with Sweden ; to
> ring about a form of union which , had
t been consummated , would have boon
'atal to Norwegian independence and
olf-KOvernment. The system has been
epudlatcd by the Norwegian people
ivory time they had a chance ; its final
onsignment to the records of the past
las now been formally accomplished.
Bafllod time and again in these efforts
o subvert the will of fho majority , DH re-
loatcdly expressed by elections to the
Storthing , King Oscar has made a soom-
ugly unconditional surrender. The ab-
elute veto demanded by him ns a pro-
ogativo but deniad by the Storthing as
n usurpation foreign to the constitution
nd the spirit of their institutions , in
luietly dropped out of sight and
nitid to do mischief no more. Gthir
luinis till quite reiu-ntly disputed by the
ing have boon similarly disposed ot ; in
net , conceding nearly everything asked
f him by the united luft. The result is
qual to a revolution. For the first time
ii her history Norway is governed by

( r. Blnlno'd Early Divya In
Speaking of Mr. Blaino's mode of life
i Washington irhon ho first wont to
longrcss a correspondent of the Cincin-
iati Gazette says ; At first ho lived in
Washington in a nomadic way in hotels
r boarding houses , as do moat congress-
ion but when ho was elected Speaker
o bought a house on Fifteenth street , in
10 best quarter of ( town. Opposite lived
lamilton Fish , thftn secretary of state ;
ext door lived Fernando Wood ; General
herraan's house was only a few doors
intant , and General Butler could be
eon just around .the corner. Blnino'd !
.oiiso was thought a handsome one
iut it was ouly .a plain brick
'
truoturo in a row and it outs no
ort of figure in these days , when big
nansions in the Queen Anno.Elirabethan ,
forman.and I'.know not how many other
tylea abound at the capital. There
rere to big parlors on the first iloor , and
lack of them a sitting room and dining
com , and all four rooms connected by
olding doors , so that the crowds that
urge in at the speaker's official recop-
ions were measurably well accoramodat-
id. In the belongings of this , his first
iVashlngtou home , Blaine showed a
ondnees for engravings , for substantial
uruituro. and for books. Ho was much
fiven to hospitality , and never appeared
o happy as when entertaining a conge-
lial dinner party at his b'g round table.
? or his dinner table talks ho had an in-
ixoxhauttable fund of anecdotes ami wit-
iolsms , I never hoard him toll the aime
tory twice. When not entertain-
ng friends at his own house
10 usually dined out. I remember to
lave warned him once of the perils of
ho diner-out how many and eminent
iinn had como an untimely end by oatinc
iig dinners. Ho said ho observed a
trict rule at dinner parties ho took
oup and roast beef , but no
dishes ; no desert , except a little ici
cream , nnd no wino oava dry champagne
By sticking closely to this dietary pro
gram ho could dlno out every day in tin
week without injuring his digestion. Ii
these days Blaine was not n great leltci
writer , either with hi.i own hand or vie
nrloiisly through that of his secretary ,
Ho did not like G.ufiold , reply to all tin
