The marriage ceremony of King Alphcnso
and his Austrian bride might be regarded as
in all respects suspicious were it not for the
presence of ex-Qucen Isabella. The ostenta-
ticus manner in which she has reappeared at
Madrid must remind Spaniards that the ma
ton is still exposed to her baleful influence.

A party which is afraid to keep in session

Our Washington dispatches show that the
Democratic majority i'll the Congress which
assemblies at noon to-day is far from being
unanimous in the new party resolve to be
have Even now some of the more radical
members are declaring that there must be no
abandonment of the policy already adopted,
no retreat from the positions already taken !;
and even men like Mr.. Manning, of Missis-
sippi. who are evidently sObered by the Fall
elections and are ready to admit that
continuance of the fight of last session
is not absolutely demanded by "patn-
"otic" considerations. still insist that the
party, To be consistent, must perseyere
in ITS attack upon the election laws. With
hOtheads like General Chalmers and Mr..

A substantial citizen OF jamestown, weigh
ing just 246 pounds, walked twenty-one miles
in the middle of very muddy roads OH Satur-
day for the sum of 800. 1t is really remark
able how much work the average man will do
for little money, provided the price is put
in the form OF bel. This principle might
be introduced into brick-laying and street
paving with brilliant results, and might even
lead to the cessation of strikes.

There are significant indications that the Demo-
Gratis arc preparing for general attack upon the
tariff laws when Congress reassembles. The issues
raised at tie special session proved so disastrous
that the leaders are looking about for some other
line of policy which will keep the hot
heads out of mischief OF the old sort.
There is not such an alarming appearance Of sec
tonalisIn in the discussion of questions growing
ont of the tariff and II will be che aim OF the man
aoers 10 restrain tho Solid South from making such
an offensive exhibition Of itself as to insure the cer-
tam unihcation of tho North in sclf-defcnce Sena-
tor Eaton has had himself interviewed
and be talks tariff vaguely 10 prepare
the way for the new Democratic departure.
But this brilliant scheme won't work. The bust
ness of tho country is now rushing forward with
such momentum that it will not permit any inter
ference for political purposes. Business can adapt
itself to bad laws readily and safely than It
can endure caprcious meddlng. II is not an
inviting time for taTf-tinkers to make an
effort TO unsettle trade and commerce
when the country is uniformly aud steadily
prosperous. Mr. Eaton andhhis fellow schemers will
be driven to invent some other plan to hold their
party together and conceal their real intentions.
They will find IL quite az unpopular and calamitous
10 array themselves against the business interests

cial session 10 take 4 revolutionary stand against
