The Two Great Parties.

Frc4a the New York Sun Dem, +.
Neither is it propable that the Repub-
lican party will now break torieces, and
give up the effort TO regain possession of
the Government. 1t has been beaten, II
is true; but such close defeat is encour.
aging to renewed exertion. Moreover. the
losses 1t has suffered through the with.
drawal Of the Independents have been
made up by the accession of Irishmen
and workingnen, who went over from
the Democracy in large numbers on as-
count OF their belief in the protection of
home industry and ,heir antagonismte to
Mr.. Cleveland. There never before was
a party which gained at once such a
body of earnest and valuable material
from the very bone aud sinew of the
country, the men who live by their own
labor and who believe in A American ideas
with an intensity that never gives down
and an ardor that never slackens., |
Thus while there il no sense in the
sidea that either of these two parties is
going to be broken up at present, the
Republicans are politically. in much the
better condition Of the two. They are
compact and united. There is no differ.
ence Of opinion or purpose among them.
The discordant elements have gone out,
and the army which remains is peerless
forsteadinsss and discipline. The defeat
of last week tends to promote and emily
en- their courage rather than destroy it.
Considered merely az political organ.
izatien, the Republican party is in good
fighting order.
But, while this is true Of the defeated,
it is not true Of the victorious party.
There is no such unity among the DEM
ocrats. On the question of protection
and free trade wide divisions prevail
among them. Between the wing 50
brilliantly represented by Mr.. Morrison
and Mr.. Dorsheimer, and the wing
championed by Mr.. Randall, there exists
degree OF antagonism which is all tho
more dangerous to the party because it is
based upon material interests and is ami
mated by antagoaism OF principle. This
antagonism may for sims be repressed
through the exigencies of party policy,
but it cannot be got rid Of except through
bitter conflict, in which one side will he
victorious and the other will be crushed.
In the recent election the free traders
have undoubtedly gained great advan-
tage; but it remains to be seen which
faction will most enjoy the favor of the
new chiefs who are now to take control
Under this new dispensation, sharp dis
cords and internal commissions are pretty
sure to arise; but Of course, there is no
sign Of them yet. and only.a prophet can
foresee why or how they arc to be mani
tested.
Meanwhile there is cause for patriotic
congratu)ation that the two political
parties are evenly divided, SO that each
is entirely able TO watcl. the other and
exercise powerful control over the fol-
lies and blunders Of its antagonist.

An Omen Wheat Market.

The following extract is from an in
terview With q prominent grain man,
one of the Oldest and most experienced
buyers and inspectors in the northwest,
a. reported in the St, Paul Pioneer Press:
This whole question of grades, dirt,
shrinkage, and everything else can easily
be setteled Let every station in the north
west be madea free market when farm
er takes his wheatto market let there be
half.dozen buyers or moro, if you please,
jump on the wagon and bid for his load.
Grades will not be heard, and the farmers
will get all their wheat is actully worth.
It is the only solution Of this qustion.
The elevator people say they ought to b
protected. A man gees to town, puts
81, 900 or 81, ,0o0into an elevator, and then
claims that the railaoad company should
protect him from ali competition. and
some Of the railroads agree with him.
IF another msn gees into the same town
and puts 81, 900 into dry goods store is
he protected from competition by any
body! The whole business Is conducted
at present, is q monopoly of she very
worst kind and ught not to be allowed to
exist" ~ s> :.

Senator Harrison's Pension Bill.

WASHINGTON, February Ex-senator
Harrison introduced bill in the senate to-
day providing for pension for all honora-
bly, discharged soldiers who served six
months in the war of the rebellion in the
military or naval service, provided they are
now disabled. The bill proceeds upon the
theory that there are many soldiers and
sailors who did not contract disabilities
during the war of such a well-defned ma
ture as to enable them to make proof
thereof, but who are now broken
down in health by reason of hard
ships and exposures in the service. The
highest rate Of pension granted is S24. The
bill increases to S12 the pensions of all wild
ows of pensioners who contracted disability
in and since the war and who are now
drawing s.; also the pensions of widows of
soldiers to be pensioned under the first Sec
ton, and those who shall obtain pensions
under the existing laws, without the widow
being required to prove that death was due
to service. 1t does not. grant pension to
all widows, but only to those who are or be-
came pensioners. The bill is the result of a
demand which the government, under ex-
listing laws, is unable to meet. The pen
sIons under the act will begin at the date of
filing the application therefor.
