The Republican organs seek to boil
ster up the United States Senate's en-
barrassment Of President Cleveland on
the ground that officials have been dis
missed for cause without being inform
ed Of the charges against them. In the
majority Of cases 1t may be that the off,
cials referred to are not half as anxious
for public inspection of the sscauses' as
are the jealous party organs. There is
no federal Office holder but makes mis-
taxes, many Of them, or violates regu-
lations governing the department in
which he labors. Then there are others
criminally guilty. In all these cases
President Cleveland's position leans
toward mercy. II may be, that, If Pres
Iident Cleveland is crowded too hard, he
will turn upon his pursuers and make
some Of them wish they hadn't 1t
may be that .'the old mani is loaded

HE would deserve well ofhis nation
and Of universal history who should
provide and introduce q mode Of set
tling disputes between employers and
employees, which mode should prevent
such strikes, lock-outs, boycotts and
riots as now are reported from all quar-
ters of the continent. The eight-hour
law strictly enforced will be one great
remedy for these evils. The sovereign
remedy, however, Is honest Christian
men Of the genuine New Testament
pattern, men who can't be bribed and
who love their neighbors as themselves,
men who would rather please God by
dealing justly with their fellowmen
than to make thousand dollars. Put
such men, and no Others, in places of
trust and power, and the machinery of
business and industry would move har-
moniously, and universal confidence
and content would take the place Of dis
trust and dissatisfaction. Gin. Post.
