Tiik Johnstowu Ih-iiHH-ritt of Wednes
day makes the folk-wing sensible sug
gestion to the Democratic county com
mittee fthich meets on Monday next
The lh-iniH-riil says: There is no ques
tion almut the fact that all the members
of the party feel the need of a change
in the rules governing the iH'mocratit'
tarty in this county. The rule requir
ing the registration of candidates two or
three weeks ln-fore the meeting of the
convention should lie abolished, as well
as the other one relating to instructions
to delegates. At the last convention a
set of amended ruli-s were favorably act
ed upon, making these and a few other
minor changi-t), and they should lie pass
ed, finally at the coming meeting of the
committee. Kvery committeeman should
ascertain the sentiments of his constitu
ents, so he can act in accordance with
their wishes. A convention should lie a
deliberative liody, free to name whom it
pleases for ollice. It is not under the
present rules. Hence the prrtosjil
change. Kvery committeeman should
he in attendance.
The joint resolution prepared by a
House committee providing for the elec
tion of I'nited States senators bv a di-
rct vote of the people, says the Harrid
tairg 1'nUiut, ought to le adopted,
though it isiloubiful if it will lie, as the
senate will le likely to prevent the pas
sage of any measure that will iu any de
gree militate against itself.
Such an amendment to the constitu
tion is neci-Sfary. 1 here was a time
when the I'nited States senate was com
posed of dignified men who had ability
as legislators and were made niemliers ot
that ixxly for that reason by the legisla
ture of their states. In those days the
senatorship was an honor not easily ob-
tained nor lightly conferred. In those
days also the legislatures were noi them
selves corrupt as now, there were no po
litical machines and no Mulhooleys.
All this is now changed. The machine,
in most cases, elects memliers of the
state legislature and directs the election
of the I'nited States senators, in which
it is aided by the money if the candi
date. Ability is no longer a matter of much
consequence. A rum hole jiolitician
who has a pull with the machine and
can send a pocketful of money can be
elected to the I'nited States senate from
many of the states as easily as the great
est lawmakers of any age. Indeed he
can lie elected more easily, than they,
for by some curious freak of fortune the
ablest legislators are often the poorest
in purse. It is folly to exject a collec
tion of professional politicians and cap
italists, interspersed (with stock jobbers
and other jobliers, to legislate for the
people; it is folly to speak of such a Iwxly
as "dignified"' and to hold that it is a
necessary check upon the more radical
ami at times dangerous House.
The thing to tie considered in relation
to election by the jieople is, will this
plan reduce or remove the evil? It will
reduce it and may remove it. The or-
linary legislature is composed of ordin-
. i .
ary men, as men go, wnn oruinary
weaknesses, and many of them are made
legislators Im-ause of these weaknesses.
It is at times easy to coerce or to buy the
necessary majority of these men. lut
it is nearly impossible to ceree or to
buy a majority of voters in a state. It
is true thNc voters elect the corrupt state
legislators, but to them theCnited States
senate is verv different from the state
'legislature and they would hesitate
fore putting a corrupt man in the chain
ler whose traditions are still acred to
them. As it is now the senate cannot
lie improved. It may ie made iietter
by popular elections, and if it Cannot
then the fact should be taken as an in
dication that the senate should le w iped
out. The experiment is worth trying.
Mk. Hknky Ci.k.ws thinks the business
situation may Ik; dismissed with "the
simple satemerit that it is exceptionally
sound and improves daily." He fol
lows the saturnine opening up in this
breezy way:
"Kasy money 14 assured for months to
come. Kates are extraordinarily low,
and there are no immrdiate prospects of
I letter rales. Kven the approaching
April settlements, usually a period of
disturbance, are attracting no attention.
This question of easy money is an im
portant factor, because it not only facil
itates SMfulation but in the long run en
courages the demand for interest-paying
projierties.
"There is a scarcity of gonl railroad
investments in Kurope, distrust of our

Kurottean demand for -'Americans" will
inevitably follow.
In event of any pronounced revival
at home or abroad in the demand for
railroad investments, the supply would
lie found inadequate to the demand; for
railroad building in the United States
has not, for five years past, kept pace

"The public has not come into the
market, nor will it come until we know-

"The dread of the Bland bill has oier

You may have observed the occasions
recently where bonds were more active
they are all easily traceable to informa
tion deemed reliable, to the effect that
the President will veto the bill. What
Kissibly might satisfy a few men in
Uoston or New York would not and
ought not to inlluence H'ojtle in Pitts
burg. In no instance has the public re
ceived any intimation that could lie re
regarded as authoritative. How could
such information lie imparted? Th
President would subject himself to criti
cisni if heannonccd his purose, and if
anyone in his confidence should betray
it it would not t-e much
better. And yet there is nothing
more easily demonstrated than
the fact that bonds have lieen active or
inactive just as men have been led to lie
lieve that the President would veto the
bill. Sum it up in a few words, the
liland bill has leen the deadfall over the
security markets all over the country
The Philadelphia iicr says: The

Washington, I.C, March 'J:!, 1 V.'4
President Cleveland has devoted the

to listening attentively to arguments for

though it is known that he has long leeu
a close student of the question involved.
It is lecause of the differences in opin
io.! among Pemocrats on the matter
that he has been anxious to htar all that
both sides have to say. I'p to last night
he had not indicated what lisosition he
would make of the bill. In view of the
record of the President it is a waste of
space to say that there is absolutely no
foundation for the stories Sent out from
Washington making him a party to a
bargain with the silver men in congress.
They are simply sensational lilels iqion
the President as well as uimn the silver
men. No man ever occupied the White
House who was clearer of bargaining,
either for erson or political gain, than
is (irover Cleveland, and, while his de
cision must necessarily le against the
wishts of many good Hemocrats, it can
lie set down in advance that it will be
the result of his honest convictions, ami

Since the tariff bill was reported to the
senate the Republicans have U-en mak
ing di-sperate and concerted attempts to
make it appear that there is formidable
iH-mocraict opposition to the bill in the
senate. That the bill will lie changed
liefore it pas-s the senate is altogether
probable, inasmuch as it will produce,
in its present form, according to the
laU-st estimates, something like 30,
IRHi.lHH) more than will be required, and
it is the policy of the lk'inocrats only to
levy sullicieut taxes to raise the money
necessary to run the government. lH-m-ocratie
senators who favor changes look
ing towards a reduction of the revenue
to the amount required will state their
reasons and ask their lemocratic col
leagues for the votes to make them, but
it is not lielieved that any of them will
seek Republican votes to get those
changes, or will vote against the bill
should the changes desired not Ik; made.
The four appropriation bills the Dis
trict of Columbia, the general .tension,
the fortification and the sundry civil
already passed by the House, represent
a reduction of l.iV.i I.'.CiS from the to
tal amount carried by the s.une bills for
the current fiscal year. This shows that
chairman Savers and his Democratic
colleagues on the House Appropriations
committee are carrying out Democratic
ideas of economy in public exjH-nditures.
Mr. J. W. Ally, who pretends to think
that he has a claim of the seat now tilled
in the senate by Hon. John Martin, of
Kansas, is in Washington, he says for
the iurMise of contesting Senator Mar
tin's right to the seat, but in reality
merely to get a little notoriety which he
hopes to Ik; able to turn to account iu
Kansas in the near future.
Hon. Daniel Magone, who was collect
or of customs at New York city during
the first Cleveland administration, and
who has for many years ln-cn a rii'og
nied authority on the politics of his
state, is in Washington. He says of
politics: "There is no sort of doubt iu
my mind that New York is a iH-mocral-ic
state. Occasional losses are ilue to lo
cal causes, but do not affect the party as
a whole. The New lYork Democracy,
too, stands squarely for tariff reform.
There is no backing down with us on
that issue. The one thing now for con
gress to do is to pass the tariff bill it the
earliest practical date. With that out of
the way, so that trade may resume its
normal condition, there is no reason to
be apprehensive a I tout iH-mocracy. '

said he would kill Xapier if he made the

A somewhat rapid glance over the com
ing fashions show that they are practical
ly the same as last year's. This fact, how
ever will prove a blessing in disguise, as it
w ill enable many to exercise a well-timed
economy and take advantage of this same
ness of styles for remodelling old dresses
Every part of a gow n can thus be made
over, aud esjiecially the overskirt w hich
will tie so largely worn. 5y nsimj a)l
skirt as an overdress above a. sham skirt of
a different material, the transformation
will beat once both complete and etTec
liy. If the lower part of an old dress Im
worn or soiled, it may easily lie removed
as the drapery in some styles is draw n up
as far as the knee on the side, and half
way between the foot and he knee in
front. Asa matter of course the dracr
ies are varied in form and sometimes uite
complicated. The Mclkiwell Fashion
Journals contain all the novelties of the
season, and moreover, in order to furni
further assistance to their readers, they
offer a supplement of patterns of the latest
styles. These may be secured by means
of coupons at an exceedingly modern price
"La Mode deT'aris" and -'l'aris Album o
Fashion" costs only fi.'At a year or Xi cents
each per copy. "The French Dressmaker'
is fn.ou iier annnm or 3i cei.ts a copy. "Ea
Mode," w hich is the best family fashion
magazine iu existence is offered at the ex
ceedingly low price of 1..7 a year or 1.1
cents a copy. If you are unable lo pro
cure anv of these publications from your
newsdealer no not take any sulistitute
