Land Thieves.

Secretary Villas was evidently inno-
cent of the ways of the land thieves
when he ruled that a man need not re-
main on Government land the entire
five years before he gets u title to it..
The land-grabbers never have gone to
that troubl', and the only difference to
them that the Secretary's ruling can
make will be that they will continue to
steal with some show OF official sanction
where they used to do it in spite of
official opposition. Still, it must be
said that the theory Of Mr.. Villas is
straight enough. Under his ruling q

THE POPULAR BOON.

In the whole history OF the country
there has not been such popular sensa'
ton as results from the Democratic
National Convention at st. Louis.
The victory won In 1884 was the
achievement of long fight against the
false principles of the Republican party,
and the issue now Is question OF whether
we shall be handed over again to ring
government, sectional hatred, and protec-
ton of monopoly. We think that the
American people have seen that the cry
about rebels and the idea that the Demo-
Gratis were unsafe and could not be
trusted is bOsh The people feel that the
idea of Blaine and Sherman or any other
candidate The Republicans could put up,
IL entirely against the spirit of the times.
The people may think that the House
of Representatives does not act wisely or
promptly; but they think also that they
will be safer in the hands of unwise
Democrats than they would be in the
grip of thieving Republicans and that is
Just the point that will decide the cleo
ton of 1888. and elect Cleveland and
Thurman by sweeping majority. In
1884 we had hordes of money to fight and
all the the power of party intrcnched
in the offices In 1888 the whole stu
alton is changed, and all we have TO do
is to waive all family quarrels and put
them on ice until the battle is won
Tariff reform is a vital issue, but beating
the Republicans is the first point, and TO
that end we should direct our forces all
along the line.

Mr.. RandalPs negative policy on the
tariff was very cool four years ago when
we were not prepared to declare a direct
policy of tariff reform. because the PEG.
pie could not understand il; but just
now Mr. Randall is behind the times, as
the Democracy of his own State very
distinctly said
He might not prefer Republican
majority in the House, because with a
Republican majority the Protectionists
could get on very well without him But
what he wants Is Democratic majority
not large enough to carry its ends without
his support He cannot but see that a
fair and honest resolution indorsing the
Presidents position as to tariff reform
would make it very difficult for him TO
hold his followers. Hence the Randall
Club at st. Louis and the portentous
banner thrust in the faces of the delegates

There was no real reason why the con-
vention should not have finished its work
and adjourned yesterday. The conven-
tion is constrained by the express com
mand of the party, issuing from the peo-
pie themselves and promulgated without
variance or dissent through an unb-oken
line of State conventions to renominate
President Cleveland, and the injunction
to demand a reduction of oppressive tariff
taxes is a mandate coming also from the
people and not less binding upon the
convention.
The only thing was that the platform
had to be fixed up and the Randall
Democrats given some sort of a conces-
sion in the way of compromise between
protection and tariff reduction.

TIE POPULAR WAyk.

II Ia understood all over the country
that Cleveland and Thurman will be
nominated. and it ia quite safe to say That
nothing in politics could be more popu-
lar. The tremendous boom OF Cleve'
lands own name with the popular idea
that makes Thurman such strong card
Is enough to override all the mistakes OF
the Democratic party.
The turn Of the tide is so strong that
If we take it at the flood we can make
the propitious occasion rich in the results
for the good of the American people.
The jumbled condition. Of the tariii
question before Congress can be reor'
ganized and reformed under the happy
auspices of a great popular tide of sentl-
ment towards the Democratic idea ex-
pressed by Cleveland in his message
The popular excitement will be such as to
carry everything before If the majority
in the House of Representatives does not
give itself away
If the House will only do something in
straightforward way the election in
November will be the coolest day for the
Republicans that a frost bitten party
ever was caught in. But the work OF he
convention in nominating Cleveland and
Thurman will be incomplete as TO the re-
suits and in the spirit TO animate the can
yass unless the Democratic majority in
the House backs the popular platform
with positive measure.
There is another thing, however, to
add, and that is the necessity of remedy
ing the weakness of the party on any
particular point by making an aggressive
fight all along the line
The Republicans are very weak in their
political dogmas, and they have been
badly beaten on that account. What we
want is to let the people bear in mind
that the Republican party is one of
and fraud and false prin
party that eliminated in
stealing the Presidency once and trying
to steal it second time.
