Undoubtedly the movement to change the
rules Of the House so as to deprive the APP
preparations committee of some of its power
has its origin to a large extent in the fear of
the freetraders that Mr.. Randall may stihe
tariff agitation in the next Congress by
the same tactics he so successfully employed
In the last. If that were the only question in
yolyed we should say let the rules remain as
at present and let Mr.. Randall have full
scope. But the question is broader one
than this. Under the present arrangement
it Is in the power of one man, with a MAORI
ty of one committee behind him, to dictate
to the whole House of Representatives what
1t shall do and what it shall not do. Such a
power ought not to be lodged any
where except in majority of the members.
One man sometimes may be wiser than many
men, but the assumption on which our form
Of government rests is the exact opposite of
this, and unless we are ready to repudiate
one of the fundamental principles of our
domestic system we should hasten to cor
rect this anomaly that exists in the House of
Representatives.

A Washington despatch says the Maine
Senators are preparing to oppose the confr-
nation of Collector Chase on account of his
connection with the count-out. The objec-
tions to Collector Chase apply, and with
equal force, to Collector Pillsbury. Both Of
them should be rejected promptly, if the
President sends in their names. The Repub-
lican Senators can't afford to condone such

FORGED OPINIONS.
Kennehec Journal

We observe that certain journals are very
busy in reporting expressions OF opinion as
coming from Mr.. Blaine First, that he
thinks the National administration is so
successful that it will receive popular ap-
proyal, and second, that in consequence the
Democratic party will control the country for
years to come. Mr.. Blaine has expressed no
such opinions He firmly believes, on the
contrary, that the. Democratic party, as now
organized, cannot govern the country success
fully, nor for a long period. OF the personal
features of Mr.. Cleveland's administration
Mr.. Blaine has, for various reasons refrained
from comments of any character whatever.
Another class Of these forged expressions
imputes to Mr.. Blaine discomfort with the
course of certain Republican journals during
the Presidential campaign. Ii possible, this
is worse forgery than the other class. 1t
would be beneath mention, but for its itera-
ton and reiteration. There is not one word
of truth in it, or a shadow of foundation for
it. Mr.. Blaine has none other than sense
of gratitude for the earnest support he re-
ceived from the Republican press, and es-
pecially from the leading journals of our
great cities.

INTERNAL REVENUE COLLECTORS.
Roston Herald

Conceding the right of the treasury depart
ment to select its own agents, it would have
been better, we think, to have continued
such of the collectors as had made good
record, and abstained from the party man
agement that made many Of them justly OBJ
n0xious. 1t cannot be otherwise than that
the treasury will suffer losses as the result
of supplanting trained and experienced
corps Of collectors with men who are igno-
rant of the law and of the sources of revenue,
and the tricks resorted to to defraud it,

It appears from an extract from the Ban
gor Wing that friends of Collector Chase have
been appealing to Republicans not to person
ally punish him because his acts in connection
with the count-out were done under theRdy1ce
of the collector of customs and postmaster OF
Portland That is pleading tfe baby act in
his behalf, and unless hos very different
kind of a man f,sfn what we have al
ways taken b.6 to be, he will not rel
isb that of intercession AS re-
49, ie collector of customs and post
ss@ster of Portland, if it be true that they,
with full knowledge of the kind of work the
Garcelon council was engaged in, assented to
and encouraged it, then there is as good
reason for rejecting them as for rejecting the
Tabulator. But we have yet to see any con
elusive evidence of this If Capt. Chase's
friends have any they should furnish it.

Bangor WING.

Mr.. Chase can be very decidedly assured
that the Wing is not "misinformed, but
that it knows whereof it affirms in this mat
ter just as it did when exposing the base pur-
poses of the count out. Perhaps Mr. Chase
1latters himself that the public can be made
to believe that there are Republicans so dis
interestedly anxious for his confirmation
that they are willing to travel over the State
at their own expense to urge prominent Re-
publicans to use their influence in his be-
half. Perhaps he thinks that the Wing can
be made to believe that the letters written to
its editor arguing in favor of Collector Chase
and insisting that he should not be personal
ly punished for acting Gin the State steal
natter under the instructions of such Dem
ocrats of the Pillsbury stripe during the war
as the Collector of Customs and Postmaster
of Portland" we say, perhaps Mr. Chase
thinks that we can be made to believe that
these Jealous champions ofhis cause are gov
erned solely by their sense of what's due to
one who has rendered such public service to
the State as himself,

The people Of Springfield Mass, are good
deal stirred up over the rum question. A
year ago the city voted for license and elect
ed city government that interpreted the
decision altogether more literally than the
voters intended. Rum shops were licensed
in great abundance There was one to less
than every two hundred of the population.
So far as practical restrictions of the traffic
was concerned there might just as well have
been no law at all and everybody been per-
nitted to start rum shop when and where
he saw fit. A year of this sort of thing has
produced strong sentiment in favor of COM
plete prohibition. Springfield experience is
very conclusive answer to those who claim

1 was coming up from G edartown on the
East and West one afternoon not long
since. 1nthe rear Of the coach / saw q
young couple who seemed TO be very
deeply interested in each other. The
young lady was well dressed and had nice
manners. Her ayes were bright her
cheeks rosy, and herlips vermillion. Her
companion was o young. commercial
traveller, whose face Is often seen in
Cartersville. The young couple APP
peared to be much pleased with
each other, and in spite Of their
surroundings were INDUCING in soft
speeches aud melting glances. After
a while the young man suggested that
they 20 out on the rear end Of the coach
and enjoy the beautiful scenery: The at-
ternoon was bright, the sun shining across
from the west in a genial way. casting
long shadows toward the east. The train
sped along through fields, over bridges,
and around curves, and In my admiration
OF the fine farms to be seen from my win
dow, | had almost forgotten the young
couple on the coach. The train was glib
ing along through an open field when; my
eyes fell on the shadows Of the young

and the proflles Of their faces-even the
motion Of the young mans lips and the
young lady's eyelashes could be seen II
was amusing to look at, and ] called the at
tention OF my.neighboron the next seat to
It. Soon almost everyone in the car was
watching the shadows. The young man
seemed to be very earnest and the young
lady very attentive. Gently, and as ifby
accident, the shadow Of the young mans
arm glided around the shadow OF the
young lady's waist, and the shadow Of the
young mans lips was seen TO quicker"
and dive at the space between the shadow
OF the young lady's chin and nose. The
passengers in the train became deeply in

time after time q litter would run'up and

"Dippin' sugar." said one old fellow
down In the corner. II seemed that |
could almost see the sparks Of electricity
fly out OF the shadows on the bank as the
lips came together. About this time the
whistle blew for town and the young
couple came in, looking harmless and in.

Sweet would have been q better word,

and everybody laughed like he
