WASHINGTON, u. c., Nov. 1S, 80.
Mr.. Benjamin Harrison is no
longer "in it," His chances of
a reconciliation, if he ever had
any, have been knocked int
smithereans, and the willy Sec
retary of State is again thr au-
tocrat Of the badly shaken mp
and demoralized Republican
party. This is 6oubly fortunate
for the country. because, in the
first place, if there is no reac-
tion. the adeice of Mr.. Blaine
will prevent the Senates passing
the Force bill at the coming
session of Congress, and in the
next place. because if Mr.. Blaine
be the nominee of the Republi-
can in 1892 he is certain to be
defeated. For these reasons the
Democratic leaders are pleased
with the change which has come
over their opponents.

CHANGES NEEDED In THE ORGANIC

Government as being Of, by,
and for the people, and of this
country as being controlled by
the majority 0f its voters. I'm
both We are, to a great extent
mistaken. Here are the facts,
let Us carefully consider them,
for sooner or later the time will
come when this very condition
of affairs will endanger the very
existence Of this republic, On
the 4th day of November, 1890,
an unprecedented majority of
the voters rendered a most en-
phatic verdict against the Re-
publican Congress and admins
tration, by electing more than
twO-third5 of the House Of Rep
resentatives. In tnOnarchical
Great Britain such all election
would have compelled an i'm
mediate and entire change of
administration, with the excep-
ton of the Qneen. who is after
all but an expensive and almost
powerless figure head for that
government. What is the result
here ? Practically nothing, so
far as tie policy of this Govern
ment is concerned. The newly
elected House will not meet un-
til the first Monday in Decem-
ber, 1891, more than a year
hence, unless called together in
extraordinary session by tue
President before that date. And
when it does meet it cannot dot
an "i" or cross a ct" in any law
upon our statute books without
obtaining the consent Of the
President and d majority Of the
Senate, powers, which, notwiith-
standing the rebuke Oi the peo-
pie, still exist to thwart the will
of a majority Of the country's
voters. The House of Repre-
sentatives Of the Fitty-Second
Congress although more than
two-thirds Democratic, can do
little more than furnish the
country the evidence IF the good
intentions of thu Democratic
party, for even should there be
Republican Senators enough who
vote with the Democrats to mod
ify or repeal the obnoxious and
unpopular Mckinley tariff law,
which is extremely doubtful,
the Republican President, whose
term lasts exactly as long as
that Of the Fiffy-Second Con-
gress, would be certain t., veto
all such measures. 1t will re-
quiIe another victory in 1892 to
enable the people to realize the
fruits Of the one just won over
the Republican party. This
will never he a real Government,
of, by and for the people, until
such changes have been made
as will ena BILE the response to
the popular will, On the part of
the governing powers, both ex-
ecutlve and legislative, to be
immediate.

precisely the same in substance

Cleveland becomes President.
His eyes are opened. He sees
the corruption of the govern

bled to create millionaires. One
eye sees the monstrous injustice
Of the tariff tax, the other the
corrupt and theiving monetary
system. He is ashamed of
party that will sit still and wink
at such robbery and oppression.
He decides to sound the bugle
note Of alarm and to make a ten
strike fer the liberty of his peo-
pie. The party leaders beseige
him and say hush, it will never
do! We can't trust the people,
and if we fight the money men
we arc kicked from power. The
honest Cleveland yields. They
make him shut one eve and half
close the other. Wall street
and the National banks are left
in their glory and AZ per cent
tariff is to be lowered only a
pittance. The other side takes
advantage of the Weakening

The Change in Weman's Dress.
The elahorately dressed wo-
man, on the street especially, is
destined tn he larity. Flashy
styles will be given over ID the
marked woman who seek for
attention--attention so far as
criticisms of their own sex and
the sneers of the men are con-
cerned. That the time is ripe
for a material change in the
fashions is conceded by all wo-
men of taste and intelligence.
Styles have run to the extreme,
until only little distance re-
manned to the point of the ex-
ceedingly Ridiculous The strain
on the purse has been severely
felt. Changes, and of a radical
nature, became so frequent that
even the wealthiest found diff
Guilty in keeping pace with them.
The reaction which has set in is
both timely and healthy. Wo-
men on every hand are welcom-
ing the dawn of the simple in
dress, while man will have ex-
tended to him the honor he has
always esteemed the greatest
that could be conferred upon

Woman i'm Politics.
Tt is when politics enter upon
the personal phase that the wo-
man shines, says a writer in
l1arper's. If she has a brother,
a husband, or a dear friend who
is in one or the other party con-
tests, she proceeds with a sub
tleness, peculiar to her sex, to
crown his efforts with success;
and il she does not succeed it is
not for lack Of persistence or
adroitness IT is when the wo-
men drop thei> arguments and
take to their own peculiar arts
that they are powerful and to
be feared, if against you aud to
be worshipped if for you.

which is likely to make the
color fashionable. This is for
tunate, as it is most becoming
color to most women, and can
be chariAingly blended with

signs Of change; more drapery
in the front may be worn by
those who do not wish to en-
phasize every curve Of their fig

parties have tried to prevent Of
Tending the monopol,sts and
money powers generally, and at
the same time to stick in a clause
in their platform to catch the
vote f the farming and ltbot-
ing man. They were afraid to
take a stand, afraid to discuss
issues. The party leaders on
both sides were striving for the
same thing-tO get Office and
patronage, and the interest of
the people were little thought
of after their votes were cap
tured. SO since the platforms
of both sides were simply bids
for votes they read very much
alike and neither meant any,
thing. For instance read the
following:
We favor q tariff which, Weld
ing a revenue adequate to sup
port the government econOmi-
cally administered, will fully
compensate for all differences
between the cost Of manufac-
turing in this and foreign coun-
tries, including the cost of la

present tariff be reformed so
that the duties upon imported
goods shall bear less heavily up

THE SUGAR TRUSTS PLAN

Et VIII RooreanIEe In tho Porn OF Great
Corporation Within tho Law.
The trustees Of Sugar Trust will deal with
the situation created by the adverse decision
OF tho Court OF Appeals at meeting to be hold
next Monday. 1t is said that the programme
has already been tacltly decided upon-that
the various refneries forming tho trust
will forfeit their charters; that the prop
erty will be bought UP by the trust in the form
OF great corporation organized under q Con-
neoticut charter. and that in such shape the
great combine will DO Improbable against all
leRul assaults.
The impression among people interested IN
the trusts seemed to be yesterday that little Of
feet OF the Court OF Appeals decision would be
felt BY the other trusts. Some Of them are al
ready organized as CORPORATIONS and some OF
the others contemplate reorRanizing on that
basis. Hthe property involved In trusts DO &C.
tually purchased by the combination instead
of beng merely controlled. 1t Is said that un-
der the Court Of Appeals decision as It stands
no attack will avail, no matter how great the
combination assailed may be.
