SHEER FOLLY.

A studied effort Is being made 10 ulS
credit President Cleveland with the mem
bers of his own party. Finding its source
in local democratic discomfort here and
there, malcontent democratic newspapers
under the leadership of the editor OF the
New York Sun, aided by united republi-
can press, are endeayoring 10 create awell-
defined breach between the Chief Execu-
tive and the party that elected him 1t can.
not be denied that in measure they have
succeeded, and that there is not today that
cordially existing between the President
and many of the leaders of the democracy
that was hoped for at the commencement
of the present administration,
That this state of affairs should exist is
perhaps a cause of regret, but it is not a
cause Of fear for the future Of the demo
cratic party 1t will be found before the
close of the present administration that the
President, by the policy which he has pur-
sued without deviation since his entrance
hl''ii NlI' "b'i'9 w tiO ii'SibVhtAdA Nill'''
and which he will pursue to the end has
not only strengthened himself with the
people of the country but has given to the
democratij party, of which he is the chosen
representative, a standing which it has not
had for almost a quarter of century.
1t is not to be gainsaid by democrats,
no matter how strongly they wish it might
be, that for years prior to President Cleye-
lands election the democratic party was
looked upon with distrust both by the bus
mess and social interests of the country.
Undoubtedly, this distrust was exaggerated
by partisan republicans upon the stump
and through the columns of the press; but
that it did exist cannot he successfully con
tradlcted To the democratic party at
tached all the odium of slavery and of the
crime of treason, and because Of this dem
OCrats-nO matter how honest as individuals
were looked upon for years, unjustly ii is
true, as not to be placed in control of the
affairs Of the general government
All this feeling has now passed away
The coursepursued by President Cleveland
has drawn to him every business interest
of the country more closely than to any
President who ever filed the Executive
Chair. Whatever fear may have been en-
tertained as to his Indifference to the rights
of any class of our citizens has been dis
PEELED, and he has the good will of the
colored people not less than of the white
In every respect he has redeemed the
pledges given by him to the country, and,
so much as within his power, those given
by the democratic party, If he is keeping
in Office some republican Office holders,
democrats ought not to complain for he is
but doing that which they gave the people
prior to his election TO understand should
be done
1t is nothing short of folly for democrats
to quarrel with the President for having
the courage and the good sense to act in
such way as must inevitably add strength
and dignity to the democratic party and
which will commend Its representatives to
the favorable suffrages OF our citizens at
ensuing elections.

Assistant Register Fish, of the treasury
department, has just prepared statement
which shows the population, net revenue
and net expenditures of the government
from 1887 to June so, 1885, and per capita
of the revenues and OF the expenditures.
In 1887 the per capita on revenue was Sl.59,
and in expenditures, SECS. In 1885 the
per capita on revenue was $5GS, and on
expenditures, Si51. The largest per capita
on revenue was in 1866 when it reached
S15.13, and when the expenditures were
Sl46S. The year WHEN there was the
largest per capita of expenditure was in
1865, when tne amount reached S3i3i.
During that year the per capita on revenue
was but 80 90. Every year since that the
per capita on revenue las exceed that on
expenditure, though in 1874 the excess was

The readers Of the Streator Monitor ought
not to find particular fault with the editor of
that paper if now and then he sees fit to APP
propriate in its entirety an editorial from an
other paper and pass it off as one of his own
productions, for it is to their advantage TO
have him do so; but they should insist that
he use good taste and judgment in making
his selections. When he takes whole col
umn editorial from the Chicago Journal that
is devoted to proving the President is
friend Of and sympathizer with traitors be-
cause he recently appointed Senator Jackson,
of Tennessee, to succeed Judge Baxter ~
United States Circuit Judge and republishes
it, his patrons ought to beseech him to desst.

The attempt by an irres ponsible ne spape
to create not only sensation but feeling d
hostility between the clerks Of this city an
the business men who employ them by pub
fishing false statements about the early clos
ing movement is, to say the least, a matte
of regret. Thus far all that has been donI
in the movement has been done in accord
ance with the strictest sense Of proprietj
and in the best possible temper. AT no timi
and under no circumstances has the subj eel
Of boycotting anyone for declining to entel
into the early closing scheme been ever
limited at by the clerks who have it in CHARGE
The whole matter is one that is between
themselves and their employers, and if aftel
they have presented their cause to their EN-
ployers in the most favorable light they are
refused their request, they are prepared tc
accept the situation with good grace They
SIMPLY ask Of their employers that the ex
pertinent of early closing be tried, and if il
does not prove successful the clerks will be-
as ready to give it up as the business mer
will be anxious to have them. All "boycot
ting" talk is the offspring of distorted
imagination, given out for the purpose Of
seriously injuring movement that has
throughout been conducted in business like
manner. 1t is disgraceful, not enterprising
journalism.
