"My experience in public life has taught me that when n man has tbo masses of the people with him ho need not fcai much. Any LOsitivo character will have enemies. It Is necessary to antagonize something , some body , in order to evidence noility or char- ncle'r , and Iu doing so enemies aio made.

It is true tbat one who Is supposed to know something ot common couit ptoccdiiro is placed at the head of committees which arc likely to hnvo Investigations , but It often oc curs thnl men who know absolutely nothing k nboul courl othiiu or common practice nro in control of romimttois having important in- < vesllpations Then It Is that thu witness innv well have n care.

An Interesting study in politics Is found in tbo ollleul tab at administi&tlon headquarter * hero for the purpose of keeping . n record of the result of the district nnd Btuto convention * which select delegates to tint Minneapolis convention. Up to this evening the states which have Instructed delegates us n body to vote for Iho renomlna- lion of President Harrison will send to the Minneapolis convention lf > 4 delegates us foi lows Florida , 8 ; North Carolina , . ' ; South Carolina , IS ; Ceorgia , 20 ; Indiana , JO ; Mis souri , 84 , Nebraska , lo. In the states that have failed lo Instruct the dclcgates-at-lurgo to vole for his renoml- nation nro some delegates who have volun- tnrlly Indlcaied their determination to vote President Harrison. Now York Is relied upon to glo tbo piesidont , * under the existing circumstances , oven though there is nothing done to wheel around the entire seventy-two dele pates , at least twenty-three votes on the llrsl ballot. Out of Pennsylvania's nlx.y four deleiraloi , nl least eighteen have a'l ready Indicated that tbev Intend to suppoit thu president on Iho first ballot , Alt ) ougb no effort was made to secure instructions In tbo Ohio convention last wcolc , twenl } of the total fort-six delegates Rru expected to vote for the pieslJenl's re- uomlnatlou even though nothing i * done to capture tbo Buckuo delegates. Ttreo out of four ot the Michigan delegates niuo been Instructed by their districts to vote for a re- nomination. 11 w ill bo seen by these ilgurcs thnt theio have already been ' - - ' > delegates placed upon tbo Harrison roster elttcr by Instructions from stuto or district couven lions or upon the voluntary motion of the , . delegates themselves. Tuts is just over one- half of tbo number required to renommato Piesldcnt Harrison upon the first ballot There will be In tbe convention b'.H } delegates , ucccssiry to a chcico , 44l > . Others \vt to Hu Heard From. Many of tha Harrison stronghold * bavo yet to bo hoard from. During tlio current mouth republicans will bold vtatu conven tions in California , Connecticut , Delaware , Illinois , Kitnsai. Mar } land , Minnesota , North Dakota , Teuucueo , Vlrsinia and West Virginia surely , and probably some other tulcs and territories Iu which the dates of conventions have not been llxcd. The state * named will elect HrJ delegates , and Is estimated that out of this number sixty will bo Instructed In stnto convention for the rcnotnlnation of Pres ident Harrison , and nt least fifteen moro will either receive Instructions through their district or will , upon their own motions , nnnoanco In favor of the renomlnn- lion , making In all scvontj-flvo delegates in elcht. Added to the 2n already mentioned , the Harrison column swells exactly up to 300 poslttvo hgurcs. The possibilities beyond those figures are very Krciit It Is expected that the elcht delegates from the tenltorlcs will all bo for rpnomlnatlon and It Is confidently bollnvtd thil Now Yorrf nnd Ohio ns a whole will ultlmivtclv determine to voln for icnomina- tlon upon the Ilrst ballot , Insuring sui cess by acclamation. The opponents ot rcnommation In figuring that Iho ntn'cs w Ith unln tructcd delegations will solidly oppose the president have nrg- Icctcd to take Into consideration the fact that tbo rule docs nat apply In republican cimvt'tilions , and that it Is quite the custom for stnto delegations to divide their ballots In national conventions Thus , whllo It Is said In administration circles hero that hnd an effort been made to secure Instructions for rcnommation In Iho Now York conven tion it would hnvo succeeded , for pruden tial reasons und In tbo Interest of harmony It was deemed advisable not to nsk for In structions.

As the session begins to lengthen , whllo business in the house Is procepdlne at a snail pace , owing to dilatory toe-tics , tbo desiio of ft lends of part ular measures to advance tbo bills comu ed to their charge is becom ing more and more marliod.

An eailj adjournment of congress , how ever , is ono of the things earnestly desired bv the majority party in the house , and in order to attain It Iho policy is to pass the appropriation bills as speedily as possible and send them to the senate , so thai on that body may bo fixed tbe responsibility for any possible prolongation of tbo sesslon'well into the suinmer. The promptness with which the senate has pissed the uppropi lotion bills shows interest has been stimulated in the desire for an early adjournment and baa also increased the belief In the possibility of ac- com [ lishmont it tbo house does its part. Iho ap.ropriution | bills will , theiefoio , gen erally continue to bu accorded the light of way In the house. ( Question of Precedent. Tomorrow is suspension day and a bill to grant pensioas to sun hors of the Sommole , Black Hawk and other Indian wars of about tne same period , as well as the sundrj civil bill , will also bo taken , up under suspension of the rules , and it l possible tuni one or twoothei measures , including1 , perhaps , the Walker expunging resolution bill , will bo disposed of by "two-thirds" votes under tbo special i ulc relating to suspensions. The diplomatic appropriation bill , which has Leon dragging slowly along throughout the past week , will bo pressed forward ton llnnl veto after ono or two more data' considctatlon , end then It may become n struggle for prece dence between Ihe sundry civil and tbo river nnd hai bor appiopriutlon bill , Tbo former measure has the advantage of age , having bcon reported first , but the river and harbor bill has tbo advantage of stronger and moio persistent backing , as well as greater necesslt } for speedy consideration. Itlver nnd harbor appropriation bills have been knonn to fail In the past for lack of two or three considerations , but annual appropri ation bills hn\o to bo passed before ccngtcss can adjourn. For this reason Chairman lihiiichard of tun river and hai Dor committee made n supreme effort to hn\o his bill taken up Immediately. Though Chairman Holtnan of tbo committee on nppropiiations , is opposed to git Ing precedence to any measures as against the sundry bill , anofTor't will bo made quietly to roconciio tbo conflict , but unless this can bo done , the matter of prccoduro must bo decided bv a struggle on tno floor or thohotiBO. The chances nro that the binding twine bill and the anti-option bill will have to walton the two apptopna- tlon bills named , both of which are measures that usually require a great deal of lime for consideration.

[ New York Herald C.iblo Special to THE Ilcn.J My predictions m regard to Mnv day In Pans hnvo been en- tliely realized. l > crvthlng Is quiet , indeed too qulot to please muny persons , for Paris today really loolts line a cltj of tbo dead and wears tbe same aspect which It wore during the flr t dny of tbo siege of IbTO. During the day alt tbo porto cocblros were closed and only a few carnages wore visible and all tbo tramways wcro oinpty. No streol cilusero bcnrd , not oven those of peddlers of vege table * , which enlivens the raounnc iu I'm I * , nor those of the news venders who nro wont to crj their wares alone tno boulevards. Tno impression produced by such a state of things Is mournful and almost ludicrous. What is to be thought of n city In which 3,000,01)0 ) Inhabitants occomo panic stricken through fear of IWO anarchists I That such was the case was clear at.d no one can deny that Paris lost her head , not on account ot any possible demonstrations which the socialists might make , but thiough dtead of tno an archists. At n Socialist Meeting. Even In the popular quarters of the cltv , the same stillness was noticeable. At a so ciallst mooting in the Sallo Vavli\ hlch w as attended by barely 4OOJ , persons , the pro ceedings weio much moro orderly than might have been expected considering that it was the 1st of Mnv. I will not pietend that there was tbe same decorum that ono would find 'n a silon in the Faubounj St , Germain , but it was certainly loss stormy than other public mcotitigs which Iia\o taken place Uerotoforo. Another factor which help ? to give Pirns thosinguHr appearance which It his tod.u is the entire ab enco fio-u the streets of men In uniform. Even tno police oflicials mo in citizen's ' dross. For such picciutions thcro may have boon excellent roisons , but If auv attack on the police had been meditated it would have occurred whether they were in uniform or not. Unroll tlio Soldiers. The soldiers who had been summoned to Paris with the object of reinforcing the garrison risen are also out of sight , beins shut up either In barracks or public buildings , all the doois of wLich are barred , wbllo oven the windows were carefully shut , 'ibe result is that the unfortunate men are nearly bored to death. Two regiments of soldiers aio encamped in the machinery hall of the exposition of IbsU. Tbev ivero sealed all da } on woo Ion benches , drlnkingwinewtiich the police had furnislied them. Would it not have been much better to have Kept those men in their respective barracks than to hnvo disturbed thorn bj bringing thorn to Pans , w hero thcv had no opportunity to showtbemso'ves ' and convince the anaichists that society is rot to bo brow beaten I It looks as though the government bad taken too many precautions , and in a case of this kind excess of zaal Is a mistake. In tbo provinces everything is quiet. A good deal of tbo country li covered with snow , which explains why open nir demon strations bavo not been hold in the mining districts of the north. Ever } w hero the dny Is regarded a ? a holiday and all mines uio deserted In honor of the occasion. In ihc suburbs the same calm is to ba scon. Thcro has boon no disturbance of any kind , but wo must wait until the evening before wo can say taut the day has passed quietly. Elections Muy Itiiko On irrela. The municipal elections were held every where except in Paris , and it Is not unlikely that when tno icsults are announced politi cal passions may bo the cuuso of some quai- rcls. rcls.Tho The whole of Europe has been very quiet up to tbo present and no snrlaus disturbance bus occurred except at Forli , in Italy , where the soldiers fired upon some poisons who bad exploded bombs. 1'it SlRiilllr nit II-ipi > enlni4. There are two verv characteristic incidents of tbo dav. Ono is the publication of an article in the Berlin Vorwaeitz , which says that the socialists repudiate ull tbo acts ot the anarchists , and the other Is the fact that at a meeting in Amsterdam Havnchol was hung in cflicy. These facts show clearly that the interna tional socialist party intends to prove by its sols It * dotoimluatlou to commit no violent or illegal docdi. In regard to Paris , let us hope that tbn evening will bo as quiet as the day has been. \Vo must not , bow overauppo30 that tbo an- archUts hnvo disarmed. TLo police know that tboy have not and ara moro vigilant than ever. Tno Jockey club at the corner of the Hue Scribe and the boulevard has been very much threatened , though It rcnllv had noth ing to do with the May day preparations. Wo should rejoice that the day has passed so quietly , but wo must not bo astonished If certain philosophers are frightened at this very calmness and ask themselves what would I'arls do IP a tuna of real danger , and whether tbo populates would bo able to play its part In n real war. Ono sslaom has the opportunity to feel the puUo of a great city , and philosophers and statesman do net augur well from tbe condition of Paris today.
