TO the k1ltaF 0i The Iowa City Pres.
For the first time in twelve years, the
cruel ,auut that the Democratic party Of
United States was defunct, is meaningless
bravado.
For the first time In twelve years, the
managers Of the party have appreciated
their tremendous responsibilities, aud re-
spected the earnest convictions II its
masses
For the first time il twelve years, We
are INIT; and fifty marshalled by unex-
ceptionable standard bearers; marching to
benign victory under the inspiring uni
yersal slogan of the integrity Of the union,
the rights o. MI the states, the liberties Of
the people, aud thorough expurga,ion Of
the UOnstroJs abuses, born Of the sectional
Republican faction.
For the first time 10 twelve long years,
the multitudes Of men Of my type are
stripping for stand-up fight in a presi-
Dental election on behalf Of the imnor-
tai principles Of the Democracy Of Jetfer-
sou and Jacks0u-uOw rersOnitied in the

These are official figures, printed at the
government printing Office, in Washington
They tell their own story. IN 1869, when
General Grant came into office, he found
5i,2J7 civil employees on tie pay rolls. In
1871 that number. under his administra-
ton, was increased TO 5T9Oj. Ia 1873 he
still further increased the payroll to &c.
eco. Aud IN 1915 be ran il up to the cnor-
nous figure 81 9iIl9.
The Democratic committee u! the house
have reduced the appropriations forty mil
lions Of dollars, which. il passed By the
senate, will have the effect Of sending fifty
thousand Of these cifce.hoIdcrs 10 earn u
living IN some other way, and wIl leave
General Grant about the same number oi
employees he bad when he came into office
in 1862 namely, 542U1, Or 10000 more
than wa- found TO be necessary in 1859,
under Democratic rule He aud the Re.
publican senate are fighting to keep those
fifty thousand leeches fastened upon the
treasury. That is the meaning of the so-
called deadlock between the house and
senate. Does any one doubt which party
is right?

facts: Gov. Hayes II not "A member OF the NJ. f..

IL would have perhaps been better if the
hCuse instead OF agreeing TO produce the
fody OF Mr.. Kilbourn before Judge Cartier
had declined 10 do so. The important aues-
ton involved might then have been carried
to theCnited States Supreme Court for deci-
sion and the relative powers OF the courts
and OF either House OF Congress IN similar
cases clearly defined. Parallel cases will
continually arise, and II would seem best
tnat the extent 10 which one House can ex-
ercise not only legislative but judicial and
executive functions should be finally and
forever settled. The House exists two years
and claims the right TO Imprison a contuma-
cious witness for that time. The Senate is a
perpetual body, and therefore can imprison
such a witness for life In view OF this the
New YORK EUening Post thinks that while
this power may be a necessary one, il is open
to gross abuse, and might operate oppres-
sively; that the law on this subject does no,
seem to be understood, and the practice has
been loose; and finally, that both ought Ia
be settled.

The important decision of the United
states Supreme Court In the case OF MorseIl
ct al VS.. the First National Bank of Wash
ipgton, (the points OF which were given In
yesterdays STAR is likely TO attract very
general attention throughout the country
on account OF the large interests invol we'd ,
aud especially as establishing the validity
OF building association contracts, aud plac
ing the equitable schemes OF such associa-
lions upon q firm and legal foundation.
The Baltimore American, referring to this
decision by the United States Supreme
Court, says that 10 practically overrules re.
cent decisions by Judge Pinkney in the Bal

1t Is a proposition now quite well
enough established that any material re-
duction OF rail- Dad fares is always followed
by large increase OF travel. The railroad
companies csntering in Philadelphia have
agreed 70 reduce their fares twenty-five per
cent which 10 not enough, considering the
hard times and the inability Of thousands
who desire to visit the great exhibition To
pay even the reduced rates. A special cor
respondent Of the New York World who is
low in Philadelphia looking over the situa-
tion demonstrates very cOncIusiveIy that
the concession named on the part Of the rail-
road companies is wholly inadequate to the
occasion, suicidal on the part of the rail-
roads, aud feaTfully detrimental. 10 the big
show. The same correspondent says that in
his recent trips north aud west ne took pains
TO Inquire of hOtel-kecpers, railroad agents,
and others how many people were going to
the Centennial, and almost invariably the
answer was. "Well, it depends good deal
on how much il costs. People can't afford TO
use much money just now outside OF their
own family expenses. II the railroads put
down their fares low enough, and folks are
sure OF not being swindled at Philadelphia, a
good many will so. II not, they'll stay at
home" As there are very strong Fremont
tory symptoms tina: visitors will be swindIeI,
it behOOves the citizens OF Philadelphia and
the Centennial authorities TO take Immediate
steps 10 prevent strangers from being VIC
Umized by rap2ciOuS hOtel-keepers. If the
impression once becomes general that exorbl-
tsnt prices are 10 prevail the result will he
greatly detrimental 10 the interests OF Phila-
DELI hia ard the exhibition.

In 1872. for the first time in the history of
the country, the advocates of woman suff rae
received partial recognition by one of the
residential conventions. The republican
convention at Philadelphia inserted plank
IN It's platform declaring that ''we recognize
the services OF the loyal women of America.
and that their demands for additional rights
should receive respectful consideration .
This was hardly specific enough to satisfy
the advocates Of equal suffrage for men and
women, and they now intend To ask at the
hands OF the republican convention at Gin
cinnati the insertion of plank To the effect
that the principles OF Justice aud the welfare
or the nation alike demand that every oh
stacle in the way of the exercise of suffrage
by The women citizens of the United States
snail be removed, and pledging the party to
secure this end. While they will not proba-
o!y get as good an Endorsement as they de-
sire, tits reasonable to suppose, in view of
the action OF the Philadelphia convention
that the one at Cincinnati Will adopt a plank
somewhat similar, and possibly a little
broader than that of 1872.

Notwithstanding the hostility of the San
Franclscans TO the Chinese the cry is still
"They come" A dispatch states that over
500 arrived in San Francisco yesterday, and
that a strong police force was required to
protect them from violence. The Chinese
companies In their late address make the
funny proposition that If the United States
government Will prohibit its citizens from
going 10 China the government OF the latter
country will probably prevent Chinese emf
grafton. The Celestials know but little OF
the characteristics OF the Mclean man, If
they imagine the latter would respect any
law forbiddiug him 20 visit any country un-
der the sun. There is no doubling the fact
that serious trouble will sooner or later grow
out OF the competition between 'cheap Chi
nese labor" and the white labor OF the Pacific
coast.

The fact that the Impeachment managers
asked for time TO make replication to the
demurrer entered by Belknap's counsel to
the jurisdiction Of the Senate is an evidence
that the plea is one which they regard as
deserving of careful consideration. 1t will
doubtless be held that the Senate has juris-
diction In the case, which will then be tried
on It's n eIits.
