THE populist party is, it seems, in dan-
ger of becoming depopulated.
Poor GROVER! Gresham told him the
plaguey old gun wouldn't kick.
THE Democrats have not yet agreed
upon the scapegoat, but other people
have.
Ir Mc¢Kinleyism is dead, as many Dem-
ocrats have so often asserted, it has prov-
en a very lively sort of a ghost.
WHAT is to he the financial policy of
the administration is still an unanswered
question. Repealing laws will not make
a policy.
THE word “junket,” as applied to Con-
gressional picnics, i8 now well-nigh
obsolete. They are now “tours of in-
spection.”

vindictiveness and personal enmity for
statesmanghip, but Secretary Gresham is
evidently one of them.

Ir the Mexican revolutionists can only
find some descendent of the Aztec Kings,
they can count upon the assistance of the
Cleveland administration in restoring
monarchy in Mexico.
Tie Royalists of Europe may applaud

til they get a chance to show their disap-

Tur tariff-smashers are slowly, but
surely, finding out that (he wage-earners
of the country prefer regular employ-
ment and high wages to irregular em-
ployment and starvation wages.
Borers, Hill and Flower might use the
most powerful microscope ever made,
and still be unable to locate even the
slightest trace of what they once thought
to be promising Presidential booms.
IN announcing their intention to restore
the imperial government of Brazil, if
they are successful, the Brazilinn revolu-
tionists are evidently trying to secure the
aid of the Cleveland administration.
Ir is likely that the Democrats in Penn-
sylvania and Iowa were fooled by the
name Jackson and helped to pile up the
big Republican majorities, thinking they
were voting for old Andrew Jackson.

ACCORDING to the Gresham idea, every
white man in this country is an “‘alien”
and the Indians are the only *‘Simon-
pure” Americans, of this country. Really,
it looks as though the nursing of hatred
has affected this man’s brain.
ONE of our exchanges devotes editorial
spage to a remedy for the removal of
warts, which reminds us that the ballot
in the hands of intelligent voters has late-
ly proven itself to be the best remedy for
the removal of political warts.
Gov. FLOWER became so “rattled” over
the election returns that he actually ap-
pointed a Republican to the bench of
the New York Supreme Court. Well,
that is one more good effect of the Dem-
ocratic defeat than was expected.
THE Populists are rapidly going the
way of all the other third parties the coun-
try has seen. Even those men who a-
greed to a certain extent with some of
the party's ideas, . were disgusted and
driven off by the brainless freaks it
elected to office.
IT is now announced that the New
York bankers are to aid Secretary Car-
lisle in maintaining the gold reserve at
$100,000,000. Isn't this the administration
that a few months ago announced its de-
tevmination to ran its finances independ-
ently of Wail street?
Way doesn’t Mr. Cleveland aet more
consistently 2 Tf he has a right to set up
a monarchy in Hawaii, why should he
object to the exercise of a similar right
in Brazil by European governments?
Does he hanker after a monopoly of the
monarchy business?
Tie Prison Trusty, a newspaper edited
by convicts in the Kansas penitentiary,
and bought by many persons as a curios-
ity, is most enthusiastically in favor of
Popuiists. It is edited by a friend of
Gov. Lewelling, who is doing time for
10 years.—Pittsburg Times.
Corn. Karr ,FIeLp says in her paper
that the reason no newspaper has ever
called itself the moon, is because that
planet is understood to be made up of
worn-out matter. Colonel Kate is'in er-
ror, the true reason being the fact that
the moon gets “full” so often,
Prrraps those who presented the roy-
al crown that was once the property of
his royal highness the late Duke of
Essex, uncle of Queen Victoria, which
was on exhibition at the World’s Fair, to
the new Columbian Museum, had an idea
that it might at some future time come
in handy to his royal highness Grover
Cleveland.
McKINLEY to-day is the most pictur:
esque character in American politics,
He fought his way intrepidly “through

in a year of gerieral defeat, on the issue
of which he is the personification, and
stands in triumph in this, the hour of a
thundering protest against the destruc-
tion of the legislative fabric which is
largely his own handiwork.—Albany
Journal.
Now that the eleetion is over, one
fact may be recalled with interest, In
the great fight in New York state against
dishonest politics and the besmirching of
the Judiciary, the people received no aid
from Grover Cleveland. He never by
word of month indicated opposition to
Judge Maynard. He did not even go to
New York to vote against him. Yet Mr.
Cleveland is regarded as a great reformer
of bad politics and base politicians. —
Philadelphia Press.
Tre Cleveland Plain Dealer, an out-
and-out Democratic paper, remarks that
Senator Cameron's eccentricities do not
seem to have greatly disorganized Rep-
ublican polities in Pennsylvania. No,
we should say not. If Cameron wants
to do the Ghost Dance act with the wild,
wooly, Populist cranks and ranters of
the West, let him dance: but the people
of Pennsylvania will favor sound money
and vote the Republican ticket, just the
same. Cameron would make

Ar Dayton, Ohio, there is, unfortunate-
ly, reason enough to remember the exist-
ence of the Soup House Administration.
The Dayton Evening Herald made inqui-
ries from only 37 of its hundreds of busi-
ness enterprises, and found that where
7,904 hands last year
there was work now for only 3,242 hands.
With 4,662 people finding no employment
from among only 37 factories, we can
readily imagine that business has not
been booming in Dayton and that the
good people there ‘‘want a change.”

REFERRING to our recent industrial
census; the Home Market Bulletin, of
Boston. says: Of course such a loss of
wages is a tremendous impairment of the
purchasing power of the people. Men
who don’t work cannot buy. Thus the

er, in short, everybody in the community
suffers, sooner or later, and all this be-
cause a party has heen into
power whose declared policy impairs the

WirrH the Tariff issue settled and re-
duced to a Free-Trade basis, the indus-

farewell to the prosperity of the Ameri-

can workman: farewell to the stability of
American labor: farewell to the prosper-
ous communities with prosperous work- .
men; farewell to the growth of our man
ufactures and to the inauguration of new
enterprises in the United States. The
way would be opened to long disastrons
strikes by discontented labor. Capital
would avoid enterprises where its pofits
depend upon the stability of labor, and
in the end labor and capital would both
suffer.—American Economist.
Tue Nicaraguan Congress, to keep for-
eigners out of the country, has passed a
law which subjects them to everything
but hanging. If we understand Ingalls,
at Wilkesbarre, night before last, he is in
favor of something like that in this coun-
try.—Pittsburg Times.
Yes, and so is TAR STAR. It would be
different, if the same class of people
would continue coming to our shores
that used to land here. Butinstead of re-
spectable Englishmen, Germans, Scotch,
Irish, ete., the kind of people that used
to emigrate to America, our country now
serves as a dumping ground for the dirty
Dagos of Italy, the filthy Huns from
Hungary and the prnupers and criminals
from nearly every other country on earth.
They come here and sow the seeds of
anarchy and pestilence, and every Amer-
ican may well tremble for his country if
this state of affairs continues to exist.
THE re-election of Judge Gary in Chica-
go is an event which order-loving men of
all parties can rejoice at. It has a much
wider significance than the city on whose
bench he will sit. He stood for law
order embodied, as no other
could have done, the hostility of a great
majority of Americans to Anarchism,
The fact tint he presided at the trial of
the Haymarket Anarchists would of it-
self have given him this distinction, but
it became doubly his due when to it was
added the attack Governor Altgeld made
on him when pardoning the Anarchists.
His defeat would have been a blot on.
Chicago that not even all the honor won
by the World's Fair could have wiped
out. The stinging rebuke Governor
Altgeld received ought to penetrate even

him and how deep is the obscurity that
yawns for him when he leaves his pres-
ent office,—Philadelphin Press. :

Tur Democracy is now on its second
term of office within thirty-three years.
It has with the country a reputation for
bad administration, which Mr. Cleveland
in his first term did something to remove.
because he went into office with—if we
may use the expression—civil service re-
form on the brain. But it will take
more than one term to convince that por-
tion of the people which makes majori-
ties that it can be safely trusted with the
Government. The notion which seems
to have taken hold of the Administration,
that the people’s vote against the tariff, last
year, was in some sort a vote of confi-
dence in the Democratic party, is an hal-
lucination. It would take a long period
of good behavior to get people to believe
in the Democrats as they have believed,
and do believe, in the Republicans. The
Democrats have not a day to spaie in the
matter of right living. There is nothing
whatever standing to their credit. They
cannot afford a single escapade. Their
performances in this state. therefore, sur-
passing anything in American history in
audacity and atrocity, must be set down
as little short of York
Post (Dem.).
