There is no course open to st. P aul
except to prove the charges made by
some of her represe ntatlve citizens.
She cannot afford to let the matter rest
where it is, for if the evidence should
not be forthcoming, it would cause a
feeling of antagonism against that city
which it would take years to remove.
On the other hand, Minneapolis cannot
afford to let the matter rest, and the
people of this state will not be satisfied
with the answers made by Minneapolis.
The abuse of individuals IS no answer

The Governor's message.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, January 10.
The message which Governor Will
son transmitted to Legislature this
morning, will take rank among the
State papers of West Virginia as
one of the ablest and most vigorous
documents that ever came from the
hand of any of our governors.
Questions of the greatest moment
are grappled with, and the necessity
of an early solution of these prob
lens is forcibly urged. The Cover
nor is no less vigorous or courage
Gus when he attempts to solve the
problems which he presents. While
some of his suggestions may not be
acted upon speedily, the terse and
earnest manner in which they are
presented, will do much to attract
public attention and hasten legisla-
ton on the lines which the message
points out.

The Ways and Means Committee.
has been taking testimony and hear
ing arguments on the tariff. Being
a Republican committee, the advo-
Gates of a protective tariff are hav-
ing full swing, yet quite a number
of manufacturers have asked that
raw material used by them, in their
factories, be placed on the free list.
Free raw material will enable the
manufacturer to place his product
on the market at reduced price,
which will onure to the behefit of
the consumer. A tariff on raw ma
terial increases the cost of produc-
ton, and thus forces the manufact-
urer to sell at an enhanced price to
the consumer.

Wheeling Register: The Republi-
can leaders in tho Legislature do
not seem to realize the improprie,y
of ''pairs' on tho GubernatoriaI con
test matter They seem to regard
it as a partisan question, not as a
judicial question. with which party
has nothing to do.
In asking pairs for Republican
absentees from the Democrats, they
acknowledge that they regard the
matter as a party question, purely.
on which Republicans are expected
to vote for COTS interests, regard
less of what the evidence of the In
vestigating Committee may show,
and they evidently expect the DEM
oerats to do the same with regard to
Judge Fleming.
Their demand for .'pairs'' is a
disgraceful acknowledgment that
they intend to vote not as judges,
not according to their honest con
victions on the evidence gathered
by the legislatures committee APP
pointed to investigate the election,
but as partisans, regardless of the
committees report.
But, from the course of the Re-
publicans in the Legislature, from
the course of the two Republicans
constituting the minority of the con
test committee, Intelligent men ex-
pected nothing else.
At no time have they exercised
fairness. AT no time have they vo-
ted as impartial judges. AT no
time have they voted as aught but
blind partisans. So far as the Re
publican minority are concerned
the Investigation was useless. for
they never intendcd-as they ac-
knowledge by asking for pairs-to
vote in any other capacity than that
of partisans, blind and deaf to law
and Justice and to everything but
party.

EleIps Toward Reforn,.

New York Evening Post. -.
Nothing has done 50 much for the
deliverence of the Government from
the influence of that deadlist and
most insiduous of all powers, the
money power, as the nomination of
it's great representative, Mr.. Blaine,
for the Presidency by the Republi-
can party. Nothing has done so
much to bring the public mind to a
proper sense of the gravity of the
spoils system Us the violation by the
party of the promises of reform and
the wholesale removals perpetrated
by Mr.. Clarkson. Nothing has done
so much to promote the cause of
ballot reform as the lavish use of
money made by the manufacturers
at the last election, and the appar-
emily triumphant and insolent SUI
premacy of men like Wanamaker
and Quay in Republican conncils.
Nothing has done so much to pro-
mote the cause of tariff reform as
the attempt of the Senate last year
to meet the demand for revision by
raising the duties, and the attempt
of the Treasury to harrass the i'm
porters in the interest of the manu-
tacturers, by open disregard of the
judgment of the courts on rules of
appraiscment.

The sentiment expressed in the
following extract from the Atlanta
Constitution will find hearty re-
Spouse all over the South, and if it
can be met with the sympathy it
deserves in the Northern section OF
the Great Republic, we will be in
deed great, happy, united and
prosperous people. The Constitu-
tion says:
ayes, blood is thicker than water.
We are going to differ sometimes
abont methods and politics, but in
the main we are going TO be a united
people. Down this way we do not
propose to interfere with grave prob
lens up North, and the Northern
people are showing disposition to
let our local matters alone. We
cannot have happiness and prosper
ity without peace and unity. Both
sections now understand each other,
and the man who attempts again TO
array them in antagonism will fall
victim to their just resentment.
Unity and love will win every
time.

As the Harrison administration

comes more clearly defined, and
through the glasses of public scrn-
tiny its virtues and Shortcomings
are magnified and then analysed
and weighed, the bent form of the
only Republican ex- President of the

and becomes majestic, and seems
gifted by comparison, with all the

years Mr.. Hayes was forgotten. His

him as her own. But the advent
of this latter day President with his
