The surest indication of the actual con-
dition of productive industry. says the
Tribune, is found in the movement of tom
mage. Such statistics show that the de-
crease during the first half OF the year was
not great, and that the volume of traffic
and of production, measured in quantities,
was not far below that OF the best years.
The latter months have shown an increase
ranging from 10 to 20 per cent, in COM
parison with the latter half of last year.
Thus the actual tonnage moved by the
trunk lines both ways during eleven
months was 10.790,000 tons in 1885,
against 1887 900 in 1884, and 0,0S9. 900
in 1888, and / 900 900 in 1882, and H.
$40, 900 tons in 1881. Better than any 9TH
er records. these figures show how little
the actual transfer of products from pro-
ducers to consumers has fallen behind
that of the most prosperous years of our
history. Bank exchanges have shown a
much greater decline. But that is because
the average of prices in 1885 has been
lower than in any other year of which
full records can be obtained. The millions
do best when prices are low if the vol
ume of productive industry is fairly main

The President and Senate.

Ex-Governor Plaisted continues to
thresh over again, from week to week, the
straw which he threshed when he was
Governor. and which then yielded nothing
but chaff in his articles in the New Age
concerning the appointing power of the
chief executive. The arguments he then
used against the Council he now employs
against the United States Senate He as
sumes that the Senate has no duty 10 per-
form in relation to the nominations of the
President to Office but to confirm them
that the rejection of any of them by the
Senate is curtailing the constitutional
power of the President. As the President
cannot make certain appointments except
by and with the consent of the Senate. as
we find it in the constitution, it seems
clear that the Senate has voice in the
matter of making appointments. and as
free and plain right to object to nomina'
tions as the President has to make them.
When the Ex-Governor says that the Sen.
ate in refusing to consent to nominations
takes away the prerogative of the Presi
dent he states that which is not true. II
would be nearer the truth to say that the
President in insisting--if he shall SO IN
sist-that the Senate has no right to re-
iect his nominations is attempting
to overturn the constitutional rights
of that body. The President has
the power to nominate but he cannot APP
point without the advice and consent oI
the Senate. Such is the plain text of the
constitution.
When the editor of the New Age was
Governor he had one favorite, and as he
claimed-infallble method of squelchins
his Council, that was, to prorogue or ad
,ourn that body for an indefinite time. Il
did not work very well in practice. how
ever. for the Council continued to exist
\ notwithstanding the bull of the Governor
"A to be as tenacious as ever concerning
phts. But as this was the Governors ia
resort, we presume he will advise the
