wANTED-A STATESMAN.

No more incisive state paper has
ever been sent to Congress than
President CleveIand's message on Its
assembling. 1t was a key note of
needed legislation and battle cry to
which democrats might rally as the
harblnger OF success. 1t WAS "A bold
message. Knowing AS the Presi-
dent did other needs of the coun
try. he also knew the one need para
mount to all others, aud devoting
bis entire message to the most need
ed reform, he ignored all others.
The eyes of the country have been
anxiously turned toward Cleveland's
administration to see if the change
would work harm or good. A sur
plus is now in the Treasury so great
as largely to curtail the circulating
medium of the country. Therefore
so far harm has been done, and yet
a Democratic Congress, by its mac
tivity and apathy, continues to IN
crease it. The National ConVen-
ton will meet June 9Th. The
Democratic party is on trial, and
the results Of legislation to be done
between now and the date of the
Convention, will decide the ques-
ton whether or not the democratic
party is to remain in power. 1t is
with our representatives in Congress
to assure democratic success or fall
ure. Have we Statesman capable
to become leader in the Halls OF
Congress? IL so-who is he? To-
day he ia not known, for not one
democrat in Congress has developed
the fact that he is leader of men,

RAILWAY managers seem to be
about the ouly ones who can frame
prohibition law that will prohibit.
Many of the managers of roads are
now unit on the subject that engi-
neers and conductors must be total
abstainers. A popular conductor
on the Rock Island was recently
suspended for sixty days, the offense
being that he was seen coming out
of saloon in Chicago. The rail
way people say that q few drinks
might bankrupt road, and they
do not propose to take any chances.
The general passenger agent of the
Alton has a plan of telling employ
ees who have been in the habit of
drinking to send in their resignation
the next time they touch glass of
any intoxicating drink. He says
the scheme works we'll. In the
operating department of that road
an employee who has been seen in a
saloon is instantly discharged.
Could not every employer of large
number of hands carry the rule into
their business and save his workmen
from the allurements of the grog-
shop.
