by the Chicago Tribune, in remembrance of
his defeat by Logan three years ago, sides
with Beveridge; but if 1t cannot be Beverage,
says the Tribune, both Beverage and Oglesby
would rather see Mr.. Washburne the successor
to Logan's seat than Logan himself. 1t is
early to begin the fight for the Senatorship.

HE BERGH BnL-The San. commenting
upon bill now before the Legislature giving
car conductors the powers of peace officers.
says:-"Yet a member of the Legislature
seriously demands that these persons, whom
their employers will not trust with five cent
fare, shall be entrusted with the responsible
power of arresting citizens" This same
criticism may be made upon the peculiar and
extraordinary powers granted to the officers OF
Bergh's society under the act recently passed
in Albany. Men who are simply the stpendl-
aries of an enthusiast have the power TO visit
domiciles, to invade Kitchens, to interfere
with the economy of nature. Certainly no
such power was ever intended by the Leoisla-

consequences of this policy, and they we're as
inevitable as that Waterloo followed the in
vasion of Russia and the surrender of Lee the
fall of Richmond. We suffer because we
have sinned and, instead of seeking CON-
fort by reformation, we are urged to sin more
and more. We have believed that ''the ma
tional debt is national blessing" and find
ourselves in the position of the capitalist in
the Scripture who builded his house on the
sea sands and moved into it for the rest Of his
days. He found himself at the mercy Of wind
and wave one night, just as we found ourselves
last fall when Jay Cooke failed and the panic
swept so many thousands into ruin. We may
accept as q sequel of the Scriptural parable
that the unfortunate capitalist rebuilded his
house on higher ground. We shall not be so
wise if we take the advice of Mr.. Morton. We
shall build ours on sander shore aud little
nearer the sea.
There are some things which Congress can
not enact. 1t cannot make any debt bless
ing. It cannot convince the world that because
we pay fifty per cent more in prices and earn
fifty per cent more in wages than England,
therefore we are richer than England. 1t can
not discover any honest means Of extinguish-
ing debt except to pay it. 1t voted at one
time that the national currency was legal
tender, and our whole financial system has
been tainted by that prodigious lie. AS Mr.
Adams eloquently remarks in recent address,
at is difficult to imagine any government de-
creeing in the future that every peck shall be

and has shown in dealing with Parliament
the tact and courage necessary to control that
body. Mr.. Forster seems to us to be the
natural leader. Without the splendor of Glad
stones eloquence, he is o man Of many gifts,
and would not make the impulsive blunders
which now and then weakened the late Prime
Minister. Two points will be gained if MIR.
Forster takes command of the liberal party.
1t will become more and more radical, and
take new departures in the direction Of land
and church and labor reforms. It will be
commanded by the one statesman who was
not afraid to avow his friendship for America,
not merely during the war, but even during
that wild, unceasing clamor in England which
surrounded the arbitration at Geneva.
1t is just possible that these departures,
which must soon be taken by English politi-
clans and especially by the liberal leaders,
deter Mr.. Gladstone from leading party
which proposes to embark in new and dan
gerous ventures. Achilles prefers to sit in
his tent during such a fray. The liberal
party must consider carefully the burning
questions which are more and more coming
into life There are problems to be solved
in England as grave as any that have been
seen since the States-General of France assem-
bled at Versailles. Mr.. Gladstone has done
his work; let newer men 60 into the strife.
Such decision on his part would not be sur
prising At the same time we shall not be
surprised if the old longing shall come back,
and we find this brilliant and gifted Minister
once again controlling England by his courage
and his eloquence, and winning anew pop
ularity and power which he used alone for
the peace and glory Of his country.
