BONSLETT, A STOFFEL West Mcllenry, 111., March U, 188*. flano MinneapolU MM Owen A Sou't, " Self Biuder, at fitaf Tlie guardians of the'Treasury Department Building, at Washington, are inexorable in enforcing the rule wli^ch forbids the admission of visitors after 2 o'clock. Even Mr. Gresham, a few days after iiis appointment as Secretary, not being recognized by the watchman, was once denied entrance until he proclaimed and proved his identity. One day President, Arthur went there to see Secretary Folger and wa& not recognized by the guard until the latter had said mechanically. After 2 o'clock, sir." The President under­ stood the situation, and said good- uaturedly: "I don't care to come In; just take a message to the Secretary." "But I can't leave my door, sir," said the watchman. 'Well, 1*11 keep door for you while you are gone,*' suggested the President, and actually kept watch at the door until the watchman re­ turned. : - The election agony is over and men of all shades ol opinions rejoice. The campaign lias boen long and ex­ pensive. For fully sis Months the war of words has been wn$»od anil the racket of charges and counter-charges kept up. The first three niOnlhs were given to canvassing the claims of asplTar.ts for nominations, the last three to pre­ paration for the shock and decision of election day, Drring all that time business has been neglected in part, and vast sums of money squandered on mamaioth demonstrations and Influ­ encing voters. Is this long strain of mind, body and pocket book necessary? Almost every body thinks not. .Short, sharp cam­ paigns will be better for candidates and4»eople. State and national con­ ventions should not be held earlier than August, an«i county nominations should uot he inade before the middle of September. English and French people are wiaer than we are in thin respect, and they succeed just as-well when their elections are hel i. Party' principles are just as thoroughly un­ derstood before as after the adoption of party platforms, and. as a rule, the qualifications add records of candidates receive nil the airing possible within a month aftet the nomiua'ions have be:en made. Whatever valid reasons may have existed tor early nomiuatious be­ fore the war they do not exist in this day of telegraph transit. The good of society demands short but rapid c^t# paigns from this time henceforth. Lu us hwii a change .--Ottawa Republican. From the Chicago Tribiu.e, NOT. 14. "Rum, Romanism and R*b*IUon" Rum. Romanism and Rebellion" was the "Morev letter" of the Blaine cam- pa'gn," Tne words were not forged, as he Garfield letter was. but they were fraudulently circulated by the Demo­ cratic managers In such a .nanner as to make Ignot ant people hold Blaine re spoueihe for them. The sentiment was publicly repudiated by Blaine^as soon as he became aware of the purpbrt of the phrase^, but the mischief had been done, as the Democrats dinned It into the ears of the Catholics and played It for all it was worth, and there was not time befol% election day to counteract it completely. It is estimated that this alliteration cost Blaine 15,000 votes In'the '"ities 6f New York and Brook­ lyn, ten 'times as many votes as the Democrats claim for Cleveland's plu­ rality in the entire State; and It cost Blaine votes in every State in the Union, In view of the evil influence exerted by these words, aird now that an expla­ nation of the circumstances attending their utter >nce cannot be suspected of A purpose to make or save votes, it will be interesting to the Tribune readers to know what Mr. Blaine thought Bur- chard sai-l at the tiino the latter de­ livered hl8 address of welcome in be­ half of the York clergymen. Burcliard is a very old man and mum­ bled o^«r\his speech^ and Blaine was obliged t» listen attentively in order to catch its drift and shape his reply. As the old man approached the end of his address Blaine's mind was rapidly evolving a suitable reply, at d when ilie phrasevJu question was muttered over in the last -enteuce Blaine heard it as "Hum, Mormonitni and Rebellion." and accepted It as such. Blaine's mistake was verf natural The words are not only similar in sound when spoken in the noise and rustle of a ctowd, but Alortnonism had been diseased very prominently by the Republicans in the la'er days of the campaign, and was piecisely the sore of t iing which a number of clergymen would be most likely to bring out in a political ad­ dress. tfr. Blaine had no protest make against "Rum, Aforntoni»>n, Rebellion" as constituting tl ree leg¥ of i he Democratic party, and replied to the general tenor, of 6urchard'« speech in the spirit In w^ilch he heard it. Thln fact-** related by a gentleman rieial visit to :jw©rd» were uttered, aWihe same gentleman says that Burchard's words were taken down In shorthand by a clerk of Gdr itat» (the Chaimi'tii of the Democratic National Executive Coimni't* ) and by liiin given to '.lie newspaper*.

Word was sent throughout, the country by the Democratic Cgm mittee to make the "Rum, Romanism and Rebellion" blunder of Burcliard the keynote of the remaining days of th# cainpaigii. and to hold Blaine re­ sponsible ror what the > Id fool said. A circular was prepared iir-Chicago w ilch credltted Blalnf with i-ndorsing Burchard's words and was distributed by thousands at the doors of .Catholic churches on Sunday btffore election and scattered broadcast throughout this state.

Very liberal premiums are o fie re.! for creamery and dairy butter, factory cheese and dairy cows, and the states of Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota are making extra efforts to shotf the*products of their dairies, and at the same time extend their trade among the people of the southern states. Central and South American states, Mexico and other foreign lands, for the Exposition promises to eclipse any thing of the kind ever attempted ou this continent, and will be attended by thousauds of persons who will come to sec and learn what the people of the state s are doing in their various lines of manufacture and especially In that of food products. The Dairymen of Illinois aite tirgen* tly requested to embrace this oppor­ tunity for showing their goods, as it cannot fail to Insure to their benefit The excellent quality of Illinois but­ ter, and the fact that it is sought after In all their leading markets, is a mat­ ter of congratulation to all who are engaged Ir. its production; and while we occupy this high position, we must not forget that we obtained It by showing our goods in competition with the world--at Centennial in Phil­ adelphia; at two international fairs in New York In 1978 and 1879, and that if we desire to hold the front rank we must not neglect the means offered to display our goods when competent judges will be called upon to pasiupon their merits. Aside from tlie liberal premiums offered there Is the In 'ucement of ex­ tending our trade among 65,0#.000 of non<producers.

The oiilj plausible objection which ha^been offered against cremation is that in case of homicide through tbft adminis­ tration ol deadly poisons valuable evi­ dence might be destroyed, but this is not a serious objection in the fane of the many advantages gained.

It is generally remarked that the lead- era in this present Congress afKiAtNktly1 re-elected.

The policy of the free-tradeia win likely be modified and it is very doubt­ ful whether Carlisle will be speaker another term. It is more than probable that Randall will regain the supremacy. Among tlie more noticeable persoos defeated at this election who are now representatives, are Easton, of Connec­ ticut, Horr, of Michigan. Cannon, of Illinois, Rosccrans, Hurd, Kellogg, and those two great "tail twisters" of the British lion, Rob!nson and Finerty. The serious ditliculty which attends a presidential campaign In the way of unsettling business was never more ap­ parent than in tlie late election. The American putdi6 seems pecollarty sus­ ceptible to sensations. The bitter con­ test just fended has been waged upon the .assumption that a change of ad­ ministration might bring upon oar devoted he ails alt the evils possible to a government. The effect has been to smotherenteiprise,unsettle values, and to make tlie people close fisted. The probability is that things -vould In any event move along about as usual, but the public has been alarmed by the loud assertions of danger made by tho politicians The desire for a longer term for the Presidency, and shorter campaigns, expressed by business men will be urged before Congress with a view to making presidential elections at leapt six years apart. This will re*> qnire a constitutional amendqatot* but It may be effected before another gea^ cral election. One feature of the late election which will receive comment, is the universality of betting. In England tlie great Detby raee gives all classes an opportunity to risk a little money «nce a year, on a bet. In tbe United States every one bets on the presiden­ tial election. Especially was this the case In Washington last week.
