EDITOR CRITfc / would like TO ask
through the columns of The Critic why
the streets of our city are not kept as
clean during the winter months, when so
many visitors are here from all parts of
mer, when everybody who can get away
is Off to some summer resort? | have
heard several visitors remark during the
past week that although our streets were
nicely paved, we seemed to have as much
loose dirt and dust as any other city.
Now while we have such nice pavements,
we ought to have energy and pride
enough to keep them in order, especially
when we have company.

The old, Old Story.

EDITOR Critic: In the month of Feb
ruary used the same number of student
lamps and gas burners that did in No
yember, December and January. The
lamps required filling every day when the
evenings were long, but in February
once in two days was enough, still the
gas bill was larger in February than in
the months Of November, December and
january. Why should this be? Can
even philadelphia lawyer explain
such an enigma? Can anybody explain
the methods of the. Gas Company?

Helm for Poor Children.

EplToR CRITIC: The ladies of the
Newsboys and Children's Aid Society are
doing good work in saving the poor
children of our city from want and teach
ing them industries by which they can
earn their own living. If every person
who is able would give one dollar per
year all the poor children could be cared
for. 1t is far easier and better to form
than to try to reform. If the money
spent in Furnishing crime was used in
educating our children to industry and
morality, society would be far better of
and every one more happy.

Under the rules Of The House Of Reprcsen-
tatiyes any member can move at the proper
time for the discharge Of any committee from
The further consideration Of any bill which
has been referred 10 1t, and II the motion Is
ADOPTED by the necessary minority the bill
will come NJ for consideration In the House
itself. In this way Mr.. HATcH, Of Missouri,
secured year or two ago the passage OF the
OlcomarRarine BILL
We have more than once during the
present session urged upon the Democratic
members Of the House Of Representatives
that II was their duty a. well as their priyi-
Iege 10 bring the BLAIR bin before the House
in the same manner in which Mr.. HATCH
brought the oleomargarine bin before that
body. Strange to say, M member. Republic
can or Democrat, has IN the manner inii-
Gated tested the strength Of the
BLAIR bin. The committee in charge Of II
has again and again failed 10 meet a! the ap.
pointed time, and the subject has been
treated as II 1t were one not worthy OF the
attention Of the committee, much less the
consideration OF the House Of Representa-
tfves. TO say that quorum OF the commit
tee could not be convened is only TO say that
the members OF the committee do not ap-
preclate the importance Of bill which has
several times passed the Senate by large
majority and with the aid Of nearly all the
most prominent leaders Of both parties in
THAT body.
But now comes the Republican caucus
and proposes 10 evoke from the BLAIR bill
\prospering gales to speed their party bark
before tho wind. The caucus met Saturday
and the particulars Of what It did were given
in ouriast Issue. The Republicans resolved
10 try the mettle OF the Democrats in the
House OF Representatives. They determined
TO make the northern Democrats vote for or
against general pension.legIslstion, and the
southern Democrats to vote for or against
The BLAIR bill. OF course the northern IS
wei as the southern Democrats will have to
Voteior or against both measures; yet practi-
'cally, the Republican proposition is TO bring
'Ibe Democrats OF each section TO s vote
upon two bills, one Of which is SUD-
posed 10 be exceedingly popular in the
North and the other universally popu-
Par in the South. The Republicans, in
sword, seek TO compel the Democrats of each
ASection TO vote for bill which they expect
the President to veto, thus making capitalior
their party and assisting materially, As they
hope, in the election Of their nominee for
) president OF the United States.
We shall zee what Is to come OF this at
temptof the Republicans to place the Demo
Gratis IN dilemma II is now clear that the
meeting OF neither the Republican nor the
Democratic National Convention could rea-
tonsilg have been postponed long enough to
enalAe either Of those bodies TO base plat.
form upon legislation already accomplished. |
Both will have 10 base platforms upon what
they propose to do rather than upon what |
they will have done before they come to-
Kether. The Democratic National Conven-
ton meets n week from to-day. We await |
sts action with confidence in the wisdom OF |
our leaders.

WHAT IT MEANs.-Since writing our article
in another place on the action OF the Repub.
lican caucus OF last Saturday, we have re-.
ceiyed the Washington Republican OF yester-
day, which testifles as to what was intended
to be accomplished by that action. We
quote:
"The fret resolution OF the caucus, TO fix
day for the consideration OF general pen
sion legislation, was q proper One-prOper
not only in itself, but because OF its political
effect. 1t will force the Democrats, both In
the House and the White House, 10 show
their hands on the pension question, besides
exposing the shallow device by which Con-
gresham MatsOn expects to secure few sol
der votes in his canvass for Governor Of
Indiana.
"The second resolution, to force the con-
sideration OF the Blair educational bill, shows
the only method by which that excellent
measure can be removed from the committee
which Speaker Carlisle, 10y direction OF
President Cleveland, stocked TO stTangle il.
IL there are o dozen Democrats in the House
out OF the large number who favor this bill
that dare thwart the willof their new master
in the White House the Blair bill can be
taken up aud passed.
"lt is well to put the party on the record
as TO this measure. The failure TO vote for
il when the opportunity is offered will make
the work OF the expert counters In some of

Democratic principles"
