MOVING EOR WARD.

Important progress has DccH ni""0 "iiNJ
in the debate on Senator Quay's resolution.
The first important step is that an amendment
has been offered which will show exactly Wherc
Senators stand, namely, the second offered ny
Senator Hoar, providing that directly after the
vote on the Tariff bill the Election bill shall
be considered, and voted upon finally Septem-
Der A. The next important step Is Mr.. Ia
munds's public declaration that he Will sup
mort this amendment. lie has been the fore
most of those Senators who have prevented
the adoption Of general rule giving the ma
iority power to close debate, and with his
support the rule relating TO the TWO great
measures ought to be adopted
With that rule, if majority approve either
bill. it can pass. as Mr. Edmunds said and II
4 majority is not ready to approve either II
must fail That is the necessary condition Of
all legislation. but with the vastly important
addition that the decision shall be III open
Senate where the country will know exactly
now each Senator votes and whether any Oh
them help the Democrats by unnecessary an
sencc The Republican Senator who STANDS
ready to face his constituents IN refusal TO
vote for the Election bill, or i'll refusal to be
present when it comes to final vote will have
at least this mcrit--he will not be hiding be-
hind an excuse that somebody else refuses
The first amendment offered by Senator
Hoar, providing that debate may be closed on
anv' measure after "A reasonable tIne,' Is too
vague for practical utility as permanent
change Of rules. Senators may object on that
| ground, who will support the order to close
debate on the two important bills at times
| fixed. But this latter amendment now seems
| to be the one upon which all who are loyal to
| Republican principles and faithful TO Repub-
can pledges can unite even though they may
| have objection TO present details OF one bill
or the other Their first and highest duty to
their party is to see that its majority, which
has been intrsted by the people with response
blity, shall have power TO transact business
without defeat by a factious minority, and to
decide on each measure with full individual
| responsibility to constituents. When Sen
ator has performed that duty and not until
| then he has the right to exercise his indlvid-
ua judgment regarding the measures pend
ing, in the light of his personal responsibility.
The sole argument of Republican directors
| is that votes cannot be obtained to do any
| thing without Democratic assent. That is yet
to be proved Until it has been proved, the
Republican party will hold no man excused for
refusing to try reasonable methods to that end.
Absolutely no proof is given by private re-
| fusals of Senators, in caucus or elsewhere, to
be bound by decisions not yet made, or to vote
| for bills pending. In open session, where
record of all speeches and votes will go TO
| constituents, Senator will often respect the
| will of the people though he may have many
prvate reasons for preferring different course.

TIE SARATOGA CONVENTION.

The Republican Club Convention in sara
toga fortnight hence bids fair to be success
full in the highest degree. General interest III
it is manifested throughout the state ana
those clubs which have been lying fallow Tor
a time are pulling themselves together ana
making ready to be represented in the con-
vention From the present outlook 1t Is eStl-
mated that l, 600 delegates will be in attend
arce One of the most interesting features
of the convention will be the club mass-meet-
ING.
Excellent progress is being made in Sc
curing speakers of the highest and widest
reputation, though it is likely that their dutieN
in Washington will prevent some of those who
would be glad to take part in 1t from attend
ing the gathering A. no Republican state
Convention is likely to be held this year-the
single nomination on the state ticket beng
made by the State Committee-the importance
Of the Club Convention is greatly increased.

rgr STRIKE IN SUSPENSE.

The threatened extension OF the strike over
the whole Vanderbilt system OF railroads has
not vet been ordered, and probably Will not
he even so far as to involve the knlghts OF
Labor alone, until the Council OF the Fedora
tion has come to a conclusion at Terre Haute
ON Saturday. Reports differ as to the under
standing reached by the Spokesman of the four
orders in this city on Wednesday night. Cher
Sargent is represented as saying that they had
determined to advise the Federation 10 make
common cause with the knights. his COL
league. Mr.. Sweeney, the head OF the switch
mems Association, is represented as asserting
that no such agreement was reached O'her
ro,narl,s and occurrences Of the day indicate
that the Supreme Council of the Federation
will not be hurried into making a general
declaration of war. To this extent therefore,
the outlook is more hopeful than it was twenty
four hours ago.
This interval of suspense affords an oppor-
t,,nity for reflection which neither side can
afford to neglect. The two men who can to-
day settle the dispute and bring harmony
ont of chaos are Messrs. Webb and Pow
DERBY. Both are men of intelligence, en-
tirely oapablc of comprehending the vast sig
nlhc3nce OF bcHcIdi i"il'O'
every element in the community. They know
that such CONFUSION means universal loss
and prolonged suffering, and whatever the
specific outcome, ruin and despair TO thousands
of individuals. 1t means productive energies
and capacities reduced to idleneSs ana the
savings of labor frittered away 1t means
public inconvenience, distress, calamity ana
condemnation Before entering upon such
conflict sober and sensible men will do all tha'
is humanity possible to prevent it.
We do not think that it is yet necessary Tor
the public to abandon all hope of seeing the
controversy brought to a settlement which VIII
be satisfactory to ali parties. Vast interests
are at stake, and the employees are even more
deeply concerned in the issue than the cor
poratons. A determined effort to reach such
q settlement is at least worth making.

The cause of the Old Colony disaster is
clearly shown by yesterdays investigation to
have been the "jacls" left on the track by the
workmen when they fed out of the way OF the
disappearing train. 1t is evident that the
work of repairing tracks, at least on this road
has not been conducted with due caution. How
far the same is true of other railways can only
be coniectured, but probably the Old Colony
COMPANY is not alone in this respect. The
responsibility for the slaughter at quincy is
vet to be legally determined, but lesson has
been taught which, it is to be hoped, railroad
co,onanies generally will scrupulously heed.

Mr.. Powderly's long address "to the pub
lie" really contains little that is new. In brief
If is review of the causes of the Central
strike and an appeal to labor organizations, and
T. ren outside of such organizations, to open
their purses and help the Knights OF Labor to
carry on the warfare in which they are en-
Gagged. The letter is characterized by the
plausibility which marks the Master Work
mans addresses and writings, but much of 1t
has little bearing on the situation. The
lamentable thing about it is the declaration, so
far as the Knights are concerned, OF war to

upon the appointment of over 600 clerks and
the appropriation to cover the expense Is close
upon $500, geo. The number OF claims under
