Cleveland has been a singularly
fortunate man, says the Winchester
Times, so fortunate that he seems u
veritable Man of Destiny. But his
luck is no longer as conspicuous as
his brave, honest, high character,
his fortitude of purpose and his
great ability for engineering results
of practical benefieence. His re-
nomination and reelection are as
certain as anything in the future
can be, and history will give him a
place high up in the stately throng
of American Presidents.

The election in Rhode Island on
Wednesday resulted in the follow
ing vote for Governor: Taft, Repub-
lican, 2O,76s; Davis, Democrat, H.
444;; Gould, Prohibition, ,s35. The
total vote was the largest ever
pOlled, showing that the Republicans
made tremendous efforts to regain
their old-time majority, but it is
only about one-half what it was in
the State election of 1884. The
proposed constitutional amendment
to do away with the property
qualification for foreign-born voters
is believed to be defeated.

One of the greatest objections to a
protective tariff is, that it makes it
to the interest of wealthy individuals
and corporations to control Legisla-
lures. These individuals must con-
troll by bribery or otherwise, else
they will fail of their protectionist
majority in the q. S. Senate, and
they must put money into Congress
ional districts orthe lower branch of
Congress may be honest and intelli-
gent enough to reduce tariff taxes.
The Republicans keep, and have
kept for years, a well paid lobby at
Washington to defeat tariff legisla-
tion. The lobbyists are there now
and viii remain there until Con-
gress adjourns.

f. A. Osrle, the Washington CORES
pondent of the St. Paul Pioneer Press,
in u communication OF the l9,h, takes
rather a discouraged view OF the Dako
to statehood situation. In his opinion
their is no more absolute certainty OF
consideration of the Dakota matter on
an. 10Th under the committees order
than there was of consideration Dec. 18th
under the order of the house. The Da-
kota bill, he says, can be antagonized by
appropriations or other privileged busi-
ness then, exactly as it has been now.
The doubt of Springer's sincerity OF pur
pose is strengthening into certainty
that hu is inslncere. His dalliance with
the question and his readiness to permit
other business to interfere with the
special order are weakening to Mr..
Oarle's never very robust hopes. If it
should happen that the Dakota bill
comes up for action on ths l5:h OF jana
airy, this Is the programme to be follow.
ed:
MIR. Springer will report the South
Dakota bill and move his four state bill
as substitute. Ii the republicans Can
muster votes enough to defeat him they
can pass the South Dakota bill, and 81
much will be gained. But this Is IN.
likely. Cox and the other two state
people will probably be governed by the
cauous agreement and vote with Spring
er, at least in the outset. When the
four state bill has been substituted for
the senate bill Springer will offer an
amendment providing for two Dakotas
at the same time he will offer his gener-
al enabling act for all the territories, ex
cept Utah, securing each one statehood
wnen it has attained population enough

the issue will be taken, Ii the demo
Gratis have votes enough to make the
