ENGLAND and America,

Our popular parliament expires
by law ut the moment the new Pres
ident and his Cabinet come in. The
British Congress does not know
when it is to expire, and has so
many parties and factions in it
that it is liable to expire without
having done any offence, or liable
to expire without being of any use.
The American Congress goes
away and leaves the Senate behind
it to do all the legislation required
for new administration, to confirm
a Cabinet, confirm innumerable
appointments and pass upon im-
portant treaties. The House of
Commons would no mo G go avs y
and leave the House of Lords IL
Legislative for England than II prud-
ent mother would leave wildcat or
snake to guard the infant children.
The President always has it. in
his power to summons Congress
together as the Queen can recall Par
lament, but in England war has more
than once come up because the Par
lament was too long suspended,
and for many years England has
been without her House of Commons.
The President cannot prevent the
the popular body from meeting at
the dates appointed for it, nor can
that body stay in session beyond
the prudent limits fixed for it by
the Constitution.
The old chief at the head of the
British Government, uncertain, owl
ish-wise, his faculties nearly gone
and most of him strong in mere SUI
perstition, cannot be relinquished
for fear some greater fool might take
his place. In this country an exec
utive untried for the broad business
of national life comes to his place
absolutely unchanged by the RICH
of an election, and no conspiracy
of families, nor even of newspaper
could destroy himself by mistakes
and follies. His history is befor,
him and not behind him. His ad.
ministration is an endeavor and no
a justification.

SATURDAY, MARCH IA, 1885.

A VERY disastrous strike, to all
concerned, on the Wabash Railroad,
still continues. Miles and miles of
freight trains are side-tracked and
the strickers are calmly awaiting
developments. No violence is at
tempted. From indications it would
seem the workmen are not entirely
in the wrong. The company in their
mad attempt at competition are try
ing to take from the laborers in
wages enough per cent. to make up
their losses, and thus balance mat
tiers on their side. We are opposed
to strikes, and We are more opposed
to grinding down the laboring man,
and especially when such thing is
done to carry out the schemes of
capitalists. When reduction in
wages is honestly made to stem over
great depressions, then justice is
satisfied, but if done otherwise, then
justice is outraged, and the great
lever of the worlds prosperity-the
working man-forces himself into
idleness rather than be so grossly
treated. To-day it is simply Capt.
tai VS.. Labor. The one without the
other could not long survive, and
a great separation or break will
surely occur if some wise solution
of the existing state of affairs il
America is not soon arrived at. A
wiseand speedy adjustment between
Capital and Labor is the one anC
important question to be settled.

They are having stav(e)ing time
over that Cooper's bill in the Della
ware Legislature, and if we are not
mistaken, the thing will shape up to
n head before long. 1t may be a
wise measure, but we think the
whole thing is out of gear. If such
bill should pass, there would soon
be a drug store at every crossroads
and at every turn. And, then again
if people were conscious of what
they were swallowing in taking
medicine, there would be change
in Prescriptions Latin would droI
below par, and the drug clerk would
lose his grip. We think it best as i
is. For our part, we care not Il
