II the Legislature had the power to pass
q law to which all bankers, private, State

will vote to enast a law which would COM
pei one man to do something not required
of another doing q simIlar business; nor to
punish one man for an act which another
could do with ~impunity. Integrity and ca
pacity are the best securities a banker ca
give, and when he gives them, one can deal

1T Is believed that several prominent Re-
publicans are beneiciaries of the leases of
nd'an lands. Two years ago the Chyennes
and Arrapahoes leased 8, III $50 acres for ten
years to six men for an annual rent of two
C 'nts per acre. The Interior Department
announced that it would not approve the
leases, but would, nevertheless, protect the
lessees from interference from parties who
had no leases. All this time, with wealthy
csttlemen ensconced within the Indian Ter
ritory, the Department has been virtuously
indignant at the attempts OF the Oklahoma
raiders to camp in the Territory. There is
something rotten about the leases from the
Indians, and IL the Senate Committee ap-
pointed to investigate the matter is v~igilant,
there are certain politicians vino will hear
something drop.

IT is argued by Mr. Randall that a country
in which wages and interest on money are
higher than in one where both are low can
not trade with each other without that in
which wages and interest are high suffering
exhaustion. Our esteemed contemporary,
the Chicago News, comes back at Mr.. RAM
dali with the showing that in New South
Wales the rate Of wages is higher than in
any other country on the globe, while inter
est on money is much higher than in Eng
land, yet New South Wales is the free-trsde
colony, par excellence, of Australia, besides
being the most prosperous and lourishing of
all the settlements in the Australian group.

fountain and Warren Democrat.l

Ever since the election of Mr.. Cleveland
as President OF the United States, the friends
of ex-senator Mcdonald have very strongly
urged his claim for q Cabinet position. To
this claim Democrats all over the Union
have looked with favor and are not back
ward in speaking out their approval. There
Is less OPPOSITION in the Democratic party TO
ex- Senator Mcdonald than perhaps any other
man whose name has been mentioned ia
connection with this high honor. That their
claim is just none will deny, for has he not
rendered powerful aid TO the party in help
ing bring about the glorious victory? To the
EX-SENATOR efforts Indiana ave her support
70 the Democratic candidate in a more sub-
stantial manner than she would have done
had he remained silent Nay, his silence
might have given Indiana to the Republic
Gang. There is no denying the fact that In
diana should be represented in the Cabinet,
and surely ex-senator McDo laid should, in
all fairness, be the man. In referring to
public matters and Cabinet positions, the
Chicago Times says: eff two places 10 the
Cabinet are given to the Northwest one OF
them will be appropriated by Indiana. Ex-
Sen ator Mcdonald will undoubtedly haze q
place at the council board of Presidents
Cleveland, and it is not an improbsbiIity
that he will be appointed Secretary OF the

Thar IS a striking reason given by Con-
gresham Morrison, Of Illinois, why be ex-
poets q Democrat to succesd Senator Logan.
says Mr.. Morrison: 81 think the Democrats
viii elect the next United States Senator
from Illinois because they deserve to win"
That is good. We entirely agree with the
gentleman that the Democrats deserve to
win; but at the same time it is suggested
that a modicum OF earnest work on the part
OF the Illinois Democracy should splice their
deserts. Republicans are not over given to
bestowing honors where they are most de.
served, else Jim Blaine would not have been
their nominee.

CoMPErFNr DRUG CL,FRKs

The State Board of Pharmacy have pre-
pared q bill for the consideration of the Leg
islature which looks to an improvement in
the class of clerks employed to compound
prescriptions in drug stores. This has been
deemed necessary from the fact that lament
able blunders are frequently made by care
less and incompetent employees. The bill
provides for a State Board, whose duty it
shall be to examine into the qualifications
OF all who shall, in the future, propose to
compound prescriptions and to issue csrtifi-
estes emitting such persons TO d. SO. No
person shall open and conduct a drug store
unless a registered pharmacist be employed
therein. Said board shall grant snd issue
certificates to applicants authorizing per-
sons therein named to act as pharmacists
who shall have passed a satisfactory exam
instion before the board. or who, at the COM
ing into effect OF the act, are keeping open
shop in this State for the retailing of drugs
and medicines aud the compromising and
dispensing OF prescriptions, bat no such GER
ti6cste shall be issued to any person under
twenty-one years of age. The sale of poisons
and adulterations are regulated by the bill,
and fines and penalties attached. The bill
is a long one. and many of its provisions
demand careful discussion, which we leave
to those who will be held responsible for its
pagsaCe-
