Hon. Samuel j. Randall is spending the
summer quietly at Wallingford, Pa, and is
rapidly improving in health. He has begun
to entertain his friends. Next December
he will begin to entertain the Republicans
of the House in a way not very different
from the all-night entertainment lie gave
them in 1867, over the Force Bill.

Next to MI. Hermans of Virginia, who
spurned the offer of an Assistant District
Attorneyship, the Hon. Roswell G. HORT, 6
political leader in Michigan, is the maddest
Republican who has appeared in print. He
was offered by President Harrison the con-
sulate to Valparaiso in Chill, after foul
months of punctual attendance in Wash
ington. He, too, spurns the bone thrown
to him. We are afraid Gen. Harrison
when he appears for second term will
hear from these indignant gentlemen in a
way that will not please him.

The mremitting pursuit of all concerned
i'll the late prize fight, is an evidence that
this brutal exhibition is behind the age
i'll this country. Civilization has outstrip-
ped it as fan as it has outstripped the prac-
tice of bull-fghting. A man trained and
taught the easiest way of beating up anoth-
Ell man, has no better place in popular
opinion now, than man trained to the
quickest way of despatching bull-both
being done for the amusement of other
men. Gov. Lowry of Mississippi, may be
regarded by some as Quixotic, but the mass
of Americans will regard him as a consci-
entious Governor, attempting to enforce a
law made by the people who elected HIM,
and law which is directed against class
OF offenders Of the most brutal sort.

During the last Presidential campaign
some Of the Republican papers We're ac-
tive in reproducing a statement that while
a Labor Committee was turned from the
door of the Democratic Committee of
Ways and Means the. representatives of a
Sugar Trust were admitted. 1t was all
. ugly story and as untrue as it was ugly :
but it was good enough for the purposes
of its inventors. 1t will open the eyes of
the Labor element now to know that the
present Treasury Department last week
revoked one of the strongest steps taken
under Cleveland's administration against
the Sugar Trusts and decided that sugar
can be admitted without any plantation
mark whatever. The Sugar Trust ought to
furnish large contribution to the re-elec-
ton of President Hhrrison in 1892, and
doubtless it will.

II. G. Smith, Of Nashville, Tenn, is a
Negro and Democrat. BY passing the
required civil service examination he won
q frst-class clerkship in the Sixth Audi
tors office at Washington, in March, 1854.
He is a good clerk, and, we take it. a man
of unusual ability, for during his clerkship
he has studied law at nights and has gradu-
ated at law school in Washington. The
present SiXtI-Auditor last week asked for
his resignation. In reply to an enquiry of
Smiths, whether there was any complaint
about his work, he answered, ''No, but we
want your place. You see, the old soldiers
are clamoring for places and we can't put
them off much longer" This is a direct
violation of the Civil Service law, and
the Civil Service Commission, we see,
has taken the case up for investigation
The result will be looked to as indicating
whether officers of the Government, sworn
to obey the laws of Congress, shall make
their oathS good, OF whether, because the
old soldiers are clamoring for places, the
laws shall be violated to oblige them.

Pulpit toadyism has an uglier flavor than
any other kind. Somehow the people gen
orally look to the ministry more for reproof
of their shortcomings than even for praise
of their good acts. And so when President
Harrison sat on Sunday in his pew at Deer
Park and heard the Rev. Mr.. Haddaway
inform the Creator of the Universe in
prayer, that the United States had "a
Chief Magistrate from whom there goes
hallOwed presence of Righteousness, he
must have felt as bad as anybody else in
the little congregation. 1t is true that
that feeling may have been mitigated by
the belief that he and his family and his
family's families are of the amounted, relig-
iously as well as officially, but in spite of
that conviction, which appears to be strong
within him, it might not be pleasant to
hear it advertised from the pulpit. 1t
sounds great deal better in the editorial
columns of Col. Eliot Shepherds Mail than
from the lips of an ordained minister.

need of an appropriation to build a
hall for its scientific department. The
legislature decided that the state treas
ury could not spare the amount re-
quired at present, and rejected its
demand. Thereupon an old and wealthy
citizen of st. Paul, eX-GOv. Pillsbury,
come forward and generously offered
$50, 600 as free gift to the university
THIS is one of those actions that will

putting this sum in an "oat" or lard
deal" but he has chosen the nobler
part of doing something for his fellow
men and the future that Will be of
enduring benefit.
The state university of Wisconsin
needs gymnasium and arrlory. 1t
asked SG5, eco from the legislature for
the purpose. The legislature thought
the state could not afford that amount
at present, and denied the request. 1t
would be pleasant 10 hear that some
Wisconsin millionaire, whose money
has come largely from the field here
opened to his talents, had followed Gov
Pillsbury's example and offered to
provide the university with the means

A NEW ERA FOB SUPERIOR.

The full report of the Monday even
ing meeting of the Superior Chamber
of Commerce, in the TINES of to day,
gives the first public statement of pro-
gress made towards consolidating the
holdings of unimproyed property in
Superior. 1t appears that the project
has been adopted by most of the large
holders and that, under their agree
ment, the Superior Consolidated Land
Company viii be organized and ready
for business by the first Of June next.
1t VIII have resident manager and
Will transact its business in Superior
through men stationed here and hay
ing proper authority to act i'll any mat
ter affecting the interests of the cor
poration.
The necessity of closer identification
with Superior is acknowledged by the
nonresident owners, and as they can
not abandon their homes to help build
up this place, they are agreed to unite
their Superior property in corpora
ton which shall be in every respect
identified with Superior and its for
tunes. We trust that the incorpora-
tors VIII clearly see this and that they
will not only incorporate under the
State laws Of Wisconsin, but that they
viii also agree that the meetings of di-
Tectors and stockholders shall be held
in Superior. If they meet elsewhere
they cannot so well understand the
work Of their agents, the progress Of
the town, or the various propositions
which NAV be submitted to them.
The formation of this company will
remove forever the chief cause of the
stagnation in Superior. 1t Will correct
the error Of 1897, in dividing the prop
erty into small parcels. 1t will take
the property from the control of dis
tant, Unsympathetic and suspicious
owners, and place it in control of an
enterprising management, united in
every interest ana sympathy with the
fortunes of the town. 1t viii give the
property real and stable value in place
of the speculative and varying values
which have heretofore prevailed. 1t
will be profitable to the owners who
surrender their property for stock and
twill be beneficial to those who have
made their homes here. 1t is the be
ginning of a new era, the dawn of a
new day, for old Superior. Hence
4 =
place are to be supplemented by the
union of property interest with the
practical work of city building. Su-
perior Will no longer be left to grow
or wilt as chance or the season de-
termines; its growth will be cult
waited and fostered, and it will
have lusty growth.
