Mr.. Evalts's speech in the 5 nate relating 10
the silver question was not on the main points
now at issue i'll this country. In respect 20 them,
therefore he is not clear, and correct mieiences
from what Mr.. EvaIts says not drawn easily.
Nhat he urged upon the Senate yesterday WI,
the need of corresponding with foreign nations
IA see if some inter crnational arrangement could
not bc made which would keep silver and gold
tlom parting Company. An abstract OF the
address will be found in The Tiibunc's Wash
hgtOn dispatches.
1t is to be hoped that the dismissal of Mis-,
Mcklham Il granddaughter OF President Jcffer-
SON. flom the Patent Office, l. susceptible Oi
such explanation It's will justify it. The woman
i, DOOR. Her mother, the Presidents daughter,
is said to be poor also and dependent largely
Oh her daughter for support. "A pension h'Ir
been refused her Oh the ground tlEit an unwi>'
precedent would thus be established; but tins
only furnishes another reason why the gie.t'
Republic should not turn the daughter out ol d
place if under any circumstances shc could be
retained.
Mr. Bakers sarcastic resolutions reviewing
the course of the present Democratic majority
in Congress ought to be preserved for use as Il
campaign document. They are highly amusing,
and while offered as jest, they contain nothing
but the truth. No wonder the D,anocrdt,
leaders ragged about the House and tined to have
the fun at their expense stopped. The bitter
irony must have cut them sharply, and tliclI
lack OF principle does not prevent them from
realizing that rdcule is weapon which po-
ltical humbugs have good reason TO fear.
The President has wisely approved the bill to
tax oleomargarne. He does on the ground
that the tax will still allow the commodity to be
manufactured and sold at fair profit, while
the necessity of putting stamps on the packages
will probably prevent bogus butter from being
sold as the pure product OF the dairy. This
reasoning will shock the nerves OF the 0leoinar-
garine men, who don't very much mind tie TAX
of two cents but who do feel their pockets
shrink at the prospect of being obliged to put Il
tell-lale stamp on their wares. secondary
benefit which flows from this approval is that II
enables those Congressman who meant to stay
in Washington until ley had passed the bill over
the Presidents veto to 30 home now III short
order.
The political platform which has been sub
mittcd for the consideration of the Central
Labor Union embOdlcs the ideas OF tie " Con-
struciive" Anarchists opposed to the Des-
tructive" Anarchists. The former would ac-
complish IL cir PURPOSES without violence the
latter aIe the disciples of Dynamite. In the
first place il is demanded in this platform that
the Central Government shall have control OF
all productive industries and that this Gov
eminent shall consist of an Executive Board
next that all pauper, tramp and temperance
laws shall be abolished. This is puerile, OF
course. The most significant thing about it is
the demand that public affairs shall be placed
IN charge of an Executive Board. Any one
can see that so soon the President, Vice
President and Cabinet stepped down and out
the Knights of Labor would be entirely pre-
pared TO furnish the country with a ready made
Government in fine working order.
