THE donioontiupnrty. dnirinjr the
fir tvar oi iu ndniiiii tration. lias done
little to win poriular confidence , not be
cause its President has done * ill , but be- ,
cause his best views and purposes have
received no hearty and unanimous sup
port from his party. This is proved not
only by the angry tone of a large part
of the democratic press but by the de
fensive air of the speeches of the Pres
ident's party friends. The pan-electric
scandal also is a very serious affair for
the democrats. The whiskey-ring frauds
and the post tradership scandal under
a republican administration were held
to be evidences of party de-cadence and
the results of a too lonsr tenure of pow
er by th'e party. But the pan-electric
scandal in the first year of democratic
restoration is a startling protect. The
democratic difference with the President
upon the silver question is another sig
nificant illustration of the situation.
The party is swiftly making its record
for the campaign of ' 88. Its sole great
advantage , to which it owed its success
in 1SS4 , was its candidate , now the
President. Its true policy after the
election was plain. It was complete
identification with the President as its
representative leader. But it has
thrown away its advantage and discard
ed its policy. The President's course
has lent , not united his party. The
democratic party has not won the con
fidence of the friends of sound finances
or of civil service reform , while the
democratic President is by far the best
that the democratic party ever elected.
Harpers Weekly.
THE Chaplain of the House of Rep
resentatives shakes the millionaires of
the Senate and monopolists in general
up in the following vigorous style :
"Give ear. Oh ! God of Jacob , and
awaken us to see the danger which
threatens the civilized world , a revolu
tion more trcmeiuiuous than any of
which history tells , in which the scenes
of the reign of terror may be enacted in
every capital of Europe and America.
Foi long the few have mastered the
many , because the ) understood the open
secret of tools to them that can use
them. But now the many have learned
the secret of organization , drill and dy
namite. Rouse the rich of the world to
understand that the time has come for
grinding , selfish monopoly to cease ; that
corporations may get souls in them , with
justice , honor , conscience , and human
kindness. Teach the rich men of th:3
country that great fortunes are lent
them by Thee for other purposes than
to build and decorate palaces , to found
private collections of art , to stock wine
cellars , to keep racing studs and yacht" ,
and to find better company than h.ist-
lers , grooms and jockeys , pool sellers
and book makers. Teach them.oh ! God ,
that it is Thee who has given them pow
er to get these fortunes ; that it is to
prove them to know what is in their
hearts , whether they will keep Thy com
mandments or no , and that those com
mandments are thon shall love the Lord
Thy God with all thy heart , and thy
neighbor as thyself , that if the rich
men of this land keep these command
ments the poor will follow the example ,
and we at le'tst will be saved from the
days of tribulation that are fast coming
on all the world. Help usoh , ! God , and
save us.1
GENERAL CROOK has been relieved
from service in Arizona and ordered
back to the command of the depaitment
of the PJatte , a position he has held be
fore to the eminent satisfaction of all
concerned. General Howard has been
as-signed to the command of the Pacific
division. General Terry goes to Chicago
and General'Schofiold to Governor's Is
land to take command of the division of
ihe Atlantic.
THE Blue Valley Blade puts this co
nundrum out , to its readers : "If the
saloon business is a legitimate one , and
is right , it is wrong to make a man pay
$1.000 or an ) ' other sum to engage in ir.
If it is wrong , the payment of § 1,000 or
any other sum in the school fund will
not make it right. Have you ever
thought of the matter in that light , and
how an : you going to get around so plain
and just a proposition ? Don't all speak
at once. ' '

LABOR and capital ought to go hrnd
