THE BUSINESS WORLD,

Attentive watchers of the business horizon
during the week saw several unmistakable
streakS that heralded the coming dawn.
Principal among these were incidents show
ing revival of operations in iron and steel
making. This interest always leads the
way out of any depression, and the blow
ing-in" of several important furnaces, foun-
dries and factories is accepted as trustworthy
harbingers of the incoming of better times.
There was slight but noticeable i'm
proyement in other branches of trade. Cot
ton goods revived somewhat, and wooden
goods showed more animation than could
be wholly attributed to the setting-in of
cold weather.
During the early part of last week specu-
somewhat irregular. Later ON the market
greatly improved and prices advanced
sharply. This is generally accepted as the
indication of healthier business feeling.
and number of leading bears are reported
to have changed their views and placed
themselves on the other side of the market.
Wheat opened actively in Chicago this
week at 744; Com was in fair demand at
3633 Oats were weak at 255; Rye quiet at
81, and Barley dull at so. Pork sold readily
at S1Q90 and $11 per hundred.
The National tribune., 1884-12-04

THE Civil Service law is of profound in
terest to tens of thousands of anxious office
holders and office-seekers There is one
point upon which the former place too much
reliance, entirely, and that is, the removal
clause, The general idea is that there can
be no removal except "for cause" This is
not true Except that no man can be dis
placed for refusing to do political work, or
refusing to pay political assessment, the
power of removal is the same as it always
was. The only difference is, that now when
removal is made of one of those included
in the operation of the Civil Service law, his
place must be supplied by promotion from
lower grade, and the lowest grade can only
be filed up by those who passed the requi-
site examination. This takes away the in
ducement-to make change for the sake Of
rewarding ones friends, but does not prevent
its being done to punish his enemies.
The National tribune., 1884-12-04
THE DUTY OF CHEERFUINEss.

The first duty of every man now is to be
cheerfully confident himself and cultivate
the same frame of mind in those with whom
he comes in contact There is absolutely
no reason for prolonging any farther the
present business depression. Apprehensions
of a disturbing policy by the party which
was successful in the recent election
are groundless, because, aside from higher
and more patriotic reasons, it behooves the
Democratic party to be on its good behavior.
1t earnestly desires to retain the power to
which it has at last attained, after "a years
of defeat, and it is going to leave nothing
undone to win the confidence of the people.
There are, however, weightier reasons
than any mere partisan consideration for
anticipating speedy and decided improve
ment in business matters. The main fact is
that there is an end sometime to every
thing. There must an end come to the
business stagnation. Factories are not 60
ing to rust ont in idleness, nor is money
going to be boarded up in vaults al,gays, nor
for any great length of time. Rolling mills
and cotton-factories can not afford to lie
idle from year to year, any more than the
workingman can afford to stand around
with his hands in his pockets from week to
week. Even capital eats itself up unless
actively employed.
The law of employment is the same for
all. The workingman must go to work, the
mill wheels must start to turning, the
boarded money in the bank vault must go
out and seek investment. They have all
held off as long as possible, and the end is at
hand The past year has not been good
season for any Of them. The next must be
made good enough to compensate for it. The
rotten and rotting concerns and enterprises
have been subjected to strains which have
brought them down with crash, that
sounder ones might grow and develop. This
they win proceed to do when the new year
fairly opens We shall then have an era of
business activity begin which has rot been
known since 1879
There is an immensely Of capital lying
idle, but eager to be invested. There are

THE attention of Bolton Post, No. All,
Lansingburg, N. Y, was called by COmrade
B. G. Barto to a recent article in The Ma
TIQNAL TRIBUNE on Insurance in the G..
AR" The Post regarded the subject very
favorably, and referred it to special COM
mittee. 1t is proposed that the subject be
brought before the other Posts in New York
for consideration, so that course of action
may be decided upon for the next State En-
campment. This is a move in the right
direction

A GRAND SPECTACLE.

There is nothing in the history of man
grander than the spectacle which the Ameri-
can people have just furnished the world.
After struggle of bitter intensity, in which
but a few hundred votes, we have seen an
instantaneous acquiescence in the result,
and the party which has held the power in
this country for "a years quietly prepare to
step down and out. 1t is practically a revo-
luton, for certainly the change that follows
the fact of Mr.. Cleveland getting several
hundred more votes in New York than Mr.
Blaine is greater than follows revolution
with collisions of armed men in other coun-
tries. The change in the personnel of the
Government is greater than that which was
resisted with bloody war when the Repub-
lican party came into power 2l years ago.
Now there is neither violence nor thought
of violence. All that the dominant party
required to know was that there was legal
MINORITY no Matter now small OF the
votes cast against it, and it at once acqui-
esced in the surrender of the enormous
power centered in its hands into that of its
opponents.
This is spectacle which must strengthen
the cause of free government all over the
world. The exhibition of selfccntrol, of
ready submission to the law, and Of cheer
full acquiescence in the will of the majority
is one to make every American proud of his
glorious country, and give renewed vindica-
ton to the world of the strength and per-
manency of a government of the people, for
the people and by the PEOPLE.

THE PETITIONS.

The pension petitions are already beginning
to be returned to The NATIONAL TRIBUNE,
and there is great qualification to be found in
considering the number and class of sigma
lures appended to each. Simply everybody
is signing them Democrats, Republicans,
Prohibitionists and Germans, Greenbackers
and "Gold Bugs" Protestants, Catholics,
Jews, Gentiles and the "heathen Of the
isles" Judges, lawyers, merchants and me-
chanies-au are anxious that the Govern
ment shall deal righteously with the men
who gave it everything, and preserved its
life at the cost Of their own health and
strength. We hope within the next few
weeks to get in 10000 of these signed by a
million names. Then the passage of the
Mexican Pension Bill will be assured be-
yond a doubt, and the relief Of tens of
thousands Of our comrades begin at once.

OPENING OF CONGRESS.

The last session of the Forty eighth Con-
gress began at noon last Monday, with only
moderate number of members in attend
ance. In the Senate the credentials of Hon.
VIM. P. Sheffield, who had been appointed
to fill the vacancy caused by the death of
Senator Anthony, were presented, and that
gentleman sworn in. The Presidents Mes
sage was received and read Senator ingalls,
introduced bill looking to the summary
removal Of the fences erected on Government
land by the "Steer Kings" Senator An
tony's death was announced, appropriate
remarks made, and the Senate adjourned.
The call of the roll of the House showed
300 of the 325 members to be present Hon.
B. T. Shiveley, of the 18th Indiana District,
who was elected to succeed Maj. Calkins,
was present and sworn in. No business was
done beyond listening to the reading of the
Message.
Both Houses have an enormous amount
of business upon their calendars, and most
of this of great Importance but no one be-
Geves that more than fraction of it will be
disposed of. The Senate's calendar has over
500 bills, the most important of which are
those to appropriate $50,000,0O0 of money
derived from Internal Revenue taxes to
educational purposes. to repeal the timber
culture act, to establish bureau of Stats
tics of labor, to provide means for the sup
preston and extirpation Of pleuro-pneu
monia and other contagious diseases among
domestic animals, to prohibit the mailing of
newspapers containing lottery advertise
ments, to provide for the inspection of meats
for expectation and prohibiting the importa-
ton of adulterated articles of food or drink,
to establish postal telegraph system, to
give copyright to newspapers writers, to
prohibit the importation and migration of
foreigners and aliens under contract to per-
form labor in the United States, and that to
legalize the incorporation of national trades
unions. Then there are the bills affecting
the Pacific railroads. number of pension
bills, and numerous other matters of conse-
quence. The resolution proposing an amend
ment to the Constitution, making the Presi-
Dental term six years, is also on the calendar.
The House calendar is vastly longer, of
course and fills 10 pages. Among the special
orders are the Mexican Pension Bill, which
has passed both Houses, and is now held on
amendments; the bills relating to the for
fixture Of certain land grants to railroads;
the bill concerning the question of the Pres;-
Dental count and succession; the bill au-
thorizing the construction ola new So, G00G0
building for the Congressional Library; the
bill to provide for the more speedy delivery
of letters at free delivery Offices, and to
establish uniform system of bankruptcy
throughout rhe United States. A bill for
the relief Of fruit growers and to encourage
the cultivation Of fruits" but which carries
in it the repeal of the Internal Revenue
taxes, is well forward on the calender of the
Committee of the Whole. The Utah bill,
which passed the Senate, is on the Speakers
table. The fss lte calendar is crowded to
overflowing.
