A CORRECT MEAsURE-For many years
past the professional politicians have been
practically absolute. They have been the
Pretorians of our city. They have dis
tributed the offices among themselves, and
have prostituted the ballot to their own
purposes They regard our municipal rev.
enue as their private fortune. 1t is theirs
to appropriate and squander according to
the dictates of their pleasure and con-
venience. They make business of poll
tics. 1t is almost their sole occupation.
No part or detail is neglected by them.
They swarm around the primaries, they
infest the conventions, they obstruct the
polls, they supervise, and of course, if
necessary, pervert the count of the votes.
These men follow politics as an avocatiou
solely for one object, and that object is
money. They are insensible to every in
stinct of honor, of patriotism, of laudable
ambition. They are indifferent to public
opinion and simply scorn honest criticism.
They are so many bandits that deliberately
plumber the people under the transparent
pretext Of serving them.-[Jersey City
Argus.

CosT FOR NosE PAISTiSG.-A recent cal
culation about the consumers cost of spir-
its and beer used annually in Illinois has
led the St Louis Republican TO similar
calculation for the whole country We
know from the Government statistics that
there are about 10000 retail liquor dealers
in the country. If they have an income of
about $l5 a day. the Republican finds that
the total is 1890, 10000 annually. During
the latest fiscal year taxes were paid on
about 100000 gallons of spirits and
nearly IL ,000, 900 barrels of beer. A gallon
of spirits is said to make nearly a hundred
drinks, costing about 10 cents each, thus
yielding $720,0OO0O0. The beer consumed
is about 4, 2l6, 900 900 pints, which, at cents
pint, makes about $2l0, 900, 900. Thus, in
two different ways, the conclusion is ar
rived at that the people of this country pay
annually for the beer and whisky which
they drink $3.50, 100000.

THE DEMOCRATIC HEAD.

The san Francisco Bulletin puts it cpl
dramatically very neatly when it says that
the Democratic party is the only party
without democracy. 1t was entirely in
keeping with the so-called principles OF
such party that it should discard such old
leaders as Thurman and Bayard. and, as
the New York Tribune has it, attempt to
put new head upon itself But unfor-
tunately, fraudulent as is the body, the new
head does not fit it. The whole country is
beginning TO ask. Who, after all, is Gro
yer Cleveland2" 1t is not mere inquiry
of curiosity, but one Of sincere desire to

WHAT HE VETOED.

The bill regarding hours of labor that
Grover Cleveland vetoed was passed by the
New York Legislature at its last session
and read as follows:
Section /. On and after the passage ofthis Act
il shall be unlawful for any officer or agent of
any railroad corporation in any OF the cities of
| this State whose are drawn by horses, to
exact from conductors or drivers employed by
them more than twelve hours labor for days
work, and such corporations shall ont of said
| twelve hours labor allow such conductors and
| drivers a reasonable time to obtain meals.
Sec. 3 Any officer or agent of any such corpo-
| ration who shall openly violate or otherwise
| evade the provisions of this Act shall be guilty
| of misdemeanor, punishable by fine of not
| to exceed three hundred dollars, or imprison.
| ment not to exceed six months, or both fine and
| Imprisonment for such ofiense.
Cleveland declared this to be class lcgis-
lation and therefore unconstitutional. But
why should he have prevented the test of
its constitutionality be made before the
| Courts? The laborers referred to had the
right to test it. They were and are entitled
to protection from the slavery of necessity
| TO which the street railways of New York
| hold the key. The people were entitled 10
| service by men not overworked. Suppose
patchers such hours as TO render their ser
vice serious risk to the travelling public,
shall that not be prohibited by a specific
act directed toward that class? VIGOROUSLY
the car employees of New York are over
worked, and the State has right in its own
interest to forbid it, and of right, i'll the in
terest of the employees, it should intervene.
THERE appears to have been some people who
entertained doubts of the adhesion Of General
Grant to the Republican party in 1884, What
warrant there has been for the suspicion we are
unable to determine but those whom the fact
may influence can quiet their souls. Long
Branch correspondent writes that Grant is sin
cerely for Blaine and Logan. The General is
reserved and sad because of business misfor-
tunes, and has said that he is forever ont of poll
tics: but TO his intimate friends he expresses
himself occasionally on political topics, and in
such moments is emphatic for the Republican
| ticket.
