IN answer to some doubts raised by the
Boston Journal, as to whether there has
been and is now such overproduction in the
country as helps to explain the present stag
nation of business and dullness Of trade, the
Springfield Republican adduces some knock
down facts to support its affirmation of the
proposition. In 1850 tho production OF
pigiron was 3,75l,02l tons ; 80 far from
being in 1884 10 per cent below that of 1850
when it was 4,7S9,0l4 tons,a increase of over
100000 tons or n per cent In 1880, the
production of Bessemer steel was $50, 500
tons in 1884, l,549 sos increase in produc-
tion, 73 per cent In the three years 1880,
1881, and 1882, the country built and equipped
$4,000 miles of railroad. Every completed
railroad was doing large business and was
laying out money freely for repairs and in
crease Of rolling stock, bridges and every
form OF railroad machinery and plant In
1884 only about 5000 miles was built and
every railroad was limiting its consumption
of material to the lowest possible point In
1880 there were in the United States, accord
ing to the best authority, 100000 spindles
at the same time in 1884, 1900, 600 spindles,
an increase Of Is per cent Increase in popu-
lation at 2H per cent year, 10 per cent.
at the same time, there is discharge of
labor from the constant supersedure of man
ual effort by machinery.

No More October States

The people Of Ohio will vote this fall
upon a constitutional amendment, the
effect of which if passed will be to take
their state out of tie list of so-called
October states, in which 1t is now the
only one left. Indiana has already done
this West Virginia, too, and Ohio will no
doubt follow.
This is a wise step, and the result ac-
complished will be beneficial to the politics
of the whole country. Nothing has been
more demoralizing than the influence of
the early elections on those which are to
follow, and the smaller became the mum.
Der of these October states the more tre-
mendous the pressure upon them and the
ranker the ensuing decentralization.
Speakers and money have been gathered
for them and have poured into
them from every side, while the
canvass elsewhere stood still. Not only
is state overslaughed by foreign infiu-
ences, but tens and hundreds of thousands
of voters all over the country instead of
making up an independent judgment and
standing by an intelligent, individual opin-
ion, wait to see in what direction the po-
litieal currents tend, and are ready to
follow.
Ohio will no doubt go out of the list
now, and political morals will be promoted
by the charge.

Not the Legal Way.

Councils, having found that it has no
power to create loan to extend the water
main on Orange street, from Lime street
westward, precipitately resolved to ask
for bids for the construction Of such a
main, to be begun not later than October
l, and finished not later than June 10, 1886,
when the work shall be paid for.
However important and necessary the
proposed work may be, this is not the way
to provide and pay for it. Such resolu-
tion is null and void what it proposes to
do is Illegal and contract made under it
would stand in no court.
There is no power in councils to order
work to be done without making previ-
GUS appropriation for it. Sec. %, page 6s,
of the city ordinances expressly declares
that no debt or contract made shall be
binding unless an appropriation sufficient
to pay the same be previously made by
councils" This was not been done in this
case. The Hershey resolution is ineffective

Hit asGreat MANY.

President Cleveland's stinging letter to a
MN who deceived him by recommending
on paper an appointment which he did not
want made, is a well-deserved rebuke, not
only to the individual to whom it is ad-
dressed but TO thousands like him all over
the country.
The cowardice and reckl6 ssness which
men OF influence and intelligence exhibit
in signing every petition and recommenda-
tion presented TO them, are shocking. Their
imposition upon those TO whom such petit
tons are addressed aud presented is vile.
1t is to be hoped this admirable deliverl

ance, from so high an authority, will have
wholesome effect.
Don't sign petitions unless you are in
earnest.
Mr.. Jones rs an Issue.

Aquilla Jones, postmaster of Indianapo-
Ii 8, must not expect the earth or any large
fraction Of it. He can not hope to remain
great political issue and at the same time
to be acquitted on the charge preferred
against him by the dozen Mugwumps Of
Indiana. But he has been acquitted and
must be content.
This is perfectly natural result, which
ought to have been apparent even to his
accusers from the first. Mr.. Jones' offense
lay in the fact that he organized the India
napolis postoflice to suit himself. He
found himself responsible for Its manage
ment; so he chose his own assistant, his
own cashier, his own registered letter clerk
and his own stamp sellers. These are all
important places the occupants of which
handle money, and thus directly affect the
postmaster's bond.
| The civil service law omitted these offices
from the classified list, as it also did In thu
smaller places. II was plain from the frs
that Mr.. Jones had simply removed the in
cumbents Of these positions and oiled tn
vacancies with Democrats. If he had re
moved every employe of the Office b
would still have been inside the law, whicl
does not presume or pretend to interfer
with removals.
That Mr.. Jones made mistakes can not b
questioned. The appointment Of his sor
was proof Of this but the law could nc
and does not take cognizance Of mel
blunders. His case would never hay
been presented to the president ha
he not been resident Of Mr.. Hel
bricks town and known to be Il
friend and appointee Of the vice presiden
To the fact that some superserviceable en-
! mics of the latter helped to make and pril
chargesa against him are due the noise and Il
importance that have been given this cas-
:, Now that they failed they may not be
handsome but they will certainly kno
more.

The devil for me.

THE civil service reformers have been
holding reunion. They are satisfied with
themselves and with President Cleveland's
administration, and their Democratic CO
reformers can hardly fail to be satisfied with
this greeting from the Schurz-C Curtis party: |:
"Resolved, That We regard the recognition
by the administration of offensive partisan.

the conduct OF a public officer-as a great
cause ior removal from Office, as being cor
rect in principle and in its effect as CONDUCIVE
TO The establishment of a non-partisan service
and we trust that President Cleveland will
apply the same test with perfect impartiality

one political party or another.'
