WITH Hill against free tra le. and
Cleveland against free coinage, the
democratic platform makers it
would seem have a hard job to per
form; but they haven't. Hither of
the two gentlemen, full of demo
cratic patriotism (r), we wager
would accept the nomination on
any kind of a platform or without a
platform altogether. These, modern
democrats, after suffering so many
defeats, have become a sort of self
adjustible affair that veers with the
prevailing wind. If the drift is
towards tariff reform, they are tariff
reformers; ii" toward protection. they
are proiecuonists; and so on
through the list of national policies.

Our neighbor has an argument
in favor of free trade and he did not
get it out of the Cobden free trad?
pamphlets either. Like the bo'
who made the windmill, he made it
all out of his own head, and had bass
wood enough left to makeanother.lt
is this: Great Britain has got along
somehow with the balance of trade
against her for a few years last past;
hence America should follow in her
free trade neighbor's footsteps, "it
is English you know." The editor
of the Journal might have intro
duced a better example of an indi
vidual getting along with the bal
ance of trade against him by hold
ing himself up as the bright exam
ple. Of course it makes no differ
ence how the fellows who pay for
such prosperity feel, just so the
shining example shines with the
balance of trade against him
Working men with their starvation
wages in Great IJritain understand

now tlie electoral college is simply
a recording board of the wishes of
the people. The constitution of the
LTnited States has not been altered
or amended, nor has the college
been abolished, though many think
it should be.
In like manner any state with a
similar constitutional provision
providing for the counting of the
votes can designate to their legis
lature their choice for senator, and
it would not take but about one les
son of popular wrath to convince
Mr. Legislator that he had better
vote as the people directed.
The law has never been enforced
in a formal way since its passage.
A weak attempt in this line was
made several years ago, in the case
of Gen. Van YVyck, but it seemed
entered into half-heartedly with a
preconceived idea that it was futile.
The people did not wake up to their
rights and power in the matter.
For some reason the great newspa
