THE elections last fall indicated that

THE elections last fall indicated that
the people demanded refOrm-refOrm in
extravaganza and lavish expenditure;
and yet from the indications in Con-
gress there will be little or no cutting
down of appropriations. The Republi-
can is a party of shams and frauds. Their
professions are one thing, but their do
ings do not conform. Instead Of cutting
down expenditures one hundred
millions as compared with last
session, this Republican Congress
is not likely to make the at
tempt. One would suppose the Repub-
liean members of the present Congress,
most Of whom were defeated for re-elec-
tiOn, as was william Mckinley jr., in
this district, would have prOfited there
by; and that they would have labOred
during this session to redeem them
selves, and cut down the appropriations
hundred million or so. This, however,
is not to be. The next House, elected
last fall, will be Democratic, and this
work of economy will be left for them
to inaugurate, which we doubt not
they will.

THE Columbus correspondent OF the
COmmercial-G Gazette had a brief inter-
view with Judge HOadly yesterday, in
which the Judge is represented as say
ing that he Is now and always was in
favor of Civil Service reform; that he
was still Vice President Of the Civil
Service Reform Association, and refer
ring with approving acquiescence" to
Washington interview published III
the Times, in which an Ohio Democrat
declared that Mr. HOadly had entered
into no combination with Mr.. Payne
against Mr.. PendletOn, the Judge said:
Not only do l support Mr.. PendletOn in
his Civil Service reform views, but |
would have gone even further than he
has. as."-COlumbu Times.
Judge Hoadly is a queer compound.
He is a great man and lawyer, but he Is
as eccentric as great.-Plain Dealer.
Does Judge Hoadly's queerness consist
in having a level and consistent Demo-
cratic head2 Is that his eccentricity?
There are more such eccentric" Demo
Gratis who regard principle as worthy Of
consideration.

THE Democratic leaders have had a
great deal to say for several years about
reform in the Civil Service, but now that
they imagine themselves on the thresh-
old Of power, they are raving mad over
the PendletOn proposition, which,
through Republican Congress and q
Republican President, has been enacted
into a law, and the Ohio brethren pro-
pose to smash Mr.. Pendleton because Of
his advocacy of the measure. This is a
fair criterion of the Democratic desire
for refOrm.-Cincinnati COmmercial-Ga Ga

And the Republican party in cOnVen-
tiOns has resolved and re-resOlved for
Civil Service reform, and though in

MANY imagine and claim that to PRO
lection" the country owes its prosperity,
forgetting the panic and five years Of
unexampIed depression and suffering,
under this very protection" The pro-
tected mOnopOlists all this time, with
internal ingenuity, claimed it was
fiat money, or something else, that
caused the trouble. And so the Internal
tariff continued, and the protected mo-
nopOlists kept their hold on the throats
of the people.

INTRODUCTION OF sPAUrER LARoh.

The other day Mr.. j. s. Moore received
circular from Philadelphia window
glass establishment, illustrating with
exceeding force the kind of protection
the tariff affords the labOring classes.
The company issuing this circular an
nOunce with pleasure that after having
been closed up for four months by
strikes among their operatives, they mad
brought from France a sufficient force
of men to be able to resume work. Their
circular found its way into the hands OF
Mr.. Vance and was read by him to the
Senate yesterday afternoon. MIR. vance
coupled with it the account OF a similar
operation by DePauw, the plate-glass
maker at New Albany, Ind. Mr. DePauw
was paying $3.50 box for glass, but
imported three hundred glass-blOwers
from Belgium on a three years contract
at 80 cents box, and then discharged
all his American labOTeTs because they
refused to come down to the figures or
the pauper labOrers OF Europe, from
competition with whom the tarth 1s
represented to protect them. OF course
there was no reply made TO this on the
Republican side, and equally OF course
the recitation of these facts by the Sena-
tor from North Carolina had no eject.
| There is no chance for discussion OF the
revelation of facts to have any enect.
Every Senator's vote for high or low
| tariff was mOrtgaged before any bill
was brought in. The cases mentioned
by Mr.. Vance were the more noteworthy
because there are few things in the
whole long lists of protected articles
that have so much protection as glass
/ WindOw-glass is protected at the rate OF
1 90, and plate-glRss to the extent OF 12C
/ per cent. So that il the tariff is OF any
efficacy in protecting the wage receiV
ers, the lot of glass-blOwers ought, to bt
a particularly happy one. Mr.. De PauW
/ is here looking after the interests OF
/ American industry, as they are affected
by the duty on plate-glass, and so Ions
as he can talk with Senators in theil
rooms he does not care what may be sait
to them on the floor Of the Senate

The Democrats of Ohio cannot afford
to act foolish, or assume airs Of lofti-
ness. Let some of our friends consider,
and remember that while we captured
Ohio last fall, like Walter ScOtt's Castle
Dangerous, it will require constant Wig
ilance and labor "to hold the fort" We
cannot afford to be cavorting around and
kicking at each other for mere pastime,
thinking all is safe and will continue
lovely. A word to the wise should be
sufficient

THERE are now probably hundreds Of
persons in this country worth each a
million or more, where there was one
in 1860. Unthinking people imagine
this a sign of prosperity; yet all history
teaches it is an indication Of rOttenness.
1t shows a great change in the distribu-
ton of wealth.

REMEMBER, a government creates not
wealth. Hence, it has nothing to give
the people, but what it takes from them.
What it gives to one part Of the people,
1t takes from the rest. This, then, is
robbery of some to benefit few.

WE do not observe that Democrats in
other States are much disturbed at the
passage Of the civil service bill. A Re-
publican Senate and Republican House
passed it and a Republican President
signed it.

WHY was it, that when the panic came
in 1873 the protected industries collapsed
like house of cards? And the operatives
were driven into the streets and high
ways to beg or steal for living. Their
employers, when they had wealth, were
not disposed to divide. The government,
whose policy brought the ruin, also let
the suffering labOrers go!

The land fraud board is again at
work in Austin acting on the testi-
mony accumulated by personal inves-
tigation of the members. The time
aiiotted by the last legislature for their
investigations was only six months
and has expired, and hereafter theirs
is labor of love unless another legis-
lature chooses TO recompense them
Such limited time is not ADEQUATE
for the task they have undertaken,
and the results must be limited
as well, However, in view of
what has already been accomplished
IL would seem that the next Legislature
should not hesitate in continuing the
investigation, and giving it full scope
to unearth all the rascality that has
been perpetrated. If the work is
worth doing at all ii is worth doing
well. There is no occasion for narrow
ing down to the outcroppings of fraud
already palpable. Let it be made full
and free with the intent of confiscating
to the state svery acre of land |
IrauduleDtly obtained. The work of
the board during the past six months
has involved Il cost of only So, 700.
Already evidence has been acted on
Involving 400. 600 acres of land, and the
present session, it is said, will increase
this amount to COO, 600 acres. This land
was purchased at fifty cents an acre
and similar land is now quoted and
sold by the state at two dol
lars an acre. Thus as a financial
scheme alone this investigation is
decided success, and the state has
much to gain by expanding its mis-
sion. The work of the board COM
mands its par value, as only in cases

outed is the Encouragement directed
