ELEcrING THE STATE PRINTER.

The measure providing for the election
Instead of appointment of Superintendent
of State Printing has so far progressed that
there is almost certainty of the bill be-
coming Law. Since first considering the
proposition We have heard nothing to shake
our faith in the wisdom of the measure.
The government, as we have so often said,
should be brought as near as possible to the
people. The State should remove the in
centive to farm an office; to traffic in its
patronage to secure it, or to submit to the
quasi enslavement of the incumbent TO re-
tain it. The freer any officer is from re-
sponsibility to political intermediates be-
tween him and the people, the better for
the State. If it is better for the appointing
power and the people that there should be
fewer elective and appointed officers, then
republican institutions are errors, and
government by the people, of the people, is
a mistake.
In these remarks it must be kept in
mind that no reference is had to the in
cumbent of the SUPPLEMENTARY of print
ing. On the contrary, his capacity and adj
ministration have been too warmly COM
mended by this journal to warrant any
thought of reference TO his dictatorship in
advocating the bill which cannot af-
feet him. The simple fact is that to
elect the Superintendent will be economic
policy, because it will free the officer COM
pletely. If it is replied that he will still
be exposed to sbossism" assaults, it is to
be replied that the same influences attempt
to operate now upon all officers, and set at
work at every session of the Legislature
machinery intended to work out control of
the offices. Under an elective system the
printing craft will be looked to by all
political parties for the best men for the
office.
Thus in campaign the absence of quail
ification in candidate would be made
notorious. The printers would sit in judg-
ment upon every aspirant, and the weak
man would go down. Each political party
would have regard for the availability of
its candidate, with an eye TO its triumph,
and would be driven to strengthen its
ticket by naming the very best printer who
could be found willing to accept. Once in
stalled in Office, responsible directly to the
people, conscious that he alone would be
held accountable for his department, all
things would combine to move him TO the
most economic administration of his trust
and fhe oneornnlisbn,ant Of tho ,,o-,, hos.
that could be done for the State. He
would not be put under COW by other off,
Gals, not be forced to accept service that as
private employer he would reject, for
such man, like good artisans, despising
pretenders and incompetents, would nat
urally surround himself with a class of
workers Of the highest competency, and
the State would be correspondingly bene-
flied

a NEW CONVENTION.

The Associated Wholesale Grocers of st.
Louis is the agency through which call
has been made for national Convention of
commercial bodies to be held in st. Louis
on February %, 1889, to formulate for
presentation to the next Congress an equit-
able Bankrupt Act. Conventions similar to
the one called by the Association have
heretofore been held, and much progress
has been made, but the desired result has
not been attained, and hence the work is
to be carried on with renewed vigor. We
are decidedly favorable to all Conventions
of representatives ofbusiness and industries
looking toward the betterment of our laws.
Without at all touching upon the proposed
mend the consultation. 1t cannot result in
Ill when thinking men assemble to discuss
the affairs Of the nation and the policy of
her laws. It is fair, in this connection, 20
repeat some part of the call, which says:
The demands of commerce are equally nc
urgent as heretofore for the enactment of a uni
form collection law in the form of an equitable
Bankrupt Act, which shall prescrvs the respect

OF their residences or personal relationship. The
essential element necessary 10 extensive com.
merc1al intercoursei is confidence. There Is want
OF absolute confidence solong il is possible for
fraudulent preferences to be made and goods
10 be spirited away and swallowed up. There
ought 70 be an adequate law for the correction
OF commercial wrongs and an adjustment OF the
rights between creditors and debtors. The As
ISOLATION is confident in the belief that the en-
actment of such law as shall be recommended
