Globe-D Democrat :-"Mr. Cleveland

THE DUTY OF REVISION.

The democratic majority in the leg
islature of Missouri, realizing its re-
sponsibility to the people for a proper
revision of the statutory laws oil the
state, under the provisions OF the coll
stitution, will undoubtedly, i'll a brle1
time, lift the flood gates which have
been held down by republican ohstruc-
tionists and proceed rapidly to the &C
com%plishment of the purposes ior
which it has assembled.
1t cannot afford to do other wise. we
are very sure it has no wish to DO
otherwise.
Within the forty days still remaining
of the legislative session every bill re-
quiled to be passed in order to com
plete the revision can be safely and
~conservatively pushed through.
There has begun to be serious appre-
tensions that the democratic majority
in the legislature is being hoodwinked
by a busy minority. There has gone
abroad a too ell .grounded fear that
those who are responsible to the peo-
pie do not meet the tull measure OF
their responsibility. But the great old
democratic party is not mistaken long
at a time. 1t may seem to be slunber-
ing amid the peace and prosperity of
a harvest moon, but it never fails to
awaken at the proper moment, and it
has never yet failed to guard the inter-
ests of the people.
4 The way to revise is to revise, and it
is hoped that the Legislature will pro-
coed at once to the work of revision.
1t is its duty to do it. The members
were elected to do 1t far more than
they were to pass any new Legislation
whatsoever, as 1t is a part OF the con-
stitution which they promised their
constituents TO support and which they
swore afterward to obey and vlndlcate.
The duty of revision is plain, it is par
amount, it is a contract between the
people and the Legislators who have al
=. ready passed the time allotted to the
body tor legislation, and are now
: drawing per diem on the time extend
ed by the constitution for revising the
, laws. No legislator can evade thi'
= state of facts, aud no democrat can at
ford TO blink the truth that a failure t.
4 revise will be heralded as a victory b!
II the anarchist republicans no are will
i. ing to bring chaos that out OF it som,
good may come to them.
AS we have already said we hav'
confidence in the good sense, the pa
triotism and the courage Of the demo
% cratic majority in the house, but th
mass of business that revision entail
causes it to be necessary to 90 to wor
- al once in the house, as it is treadin
dangerously near the limit at whic
# the utmost diligence will render it i'm
- practicable to finish the work. Pas
the necessary new legislation too, pas
"a it promptly, and do not permit the rt
vised bills to linger on their way I
