Senator German and the Force Bill.


Senator German made an able speech IN
the Senate, on Monday, in opposition to
the Force bill, which has received the
hearty commentator Of many Of the lead
ing Journals of the country. Senator Cor
man is very like Mr. Cleveland in the Pc
cularity of saying the right thing at the
right time, and saying it well. His speeches
are admirable for their strong common
sense. and confer honor not only upon him
self, but the State which he so ably repre-
sents, and the party of which he Is the
acknowledged leader. The Nec Horh
World, Of Tuesday, paid the following
tribute to Mr. German, in connection with
his forcible and timely deliverance against
the Force bill and the course Of the Re-
publican majority in the Senate:
Senator German made an admirable speech
on Monday, in which, in behalf OF his fellow
Democrats, he urged the Republican Senators
TO drop, Temporarily at least, their partisan
Force bill and to attend to the pressing needs
of the country. The speech was eloquent and
impressive, for it adequately presented the
truth of a strenuous situation. There is a
strange fatuity in the position held by Senator
Hoar and his fellow Republicans. Absolutely
shaken to pieces by the people in the recent
election for their political sins, they are using
their last brief moment Of life to repeat
their offenses. The Force bill was included
in the issues of the last campaign. The yer
dict against it was clear and decisive. The
business interests of the country are crippled.
A disastrous panic is threatened. The Secre-
tary of the Treasury has exhausted his dan
perous power to relieve the money market
'fRe Mckinley act has paralyzed trade
Goods imported under it cannot be sold on
account OF the high prices charged for them.
The facts were marshalled by Mr.. German as
the basis of his request that the Republicans
should devote some time to the relief OF the
country. The people have voted against the
Force bill and other partisan acts OF the he
publican party. They have demanded that
Congress shall turn its attention to other
questions, but Mr.. Hoar and his fellows, still
in A defiant majority, say no. They insist
that the country shall wait until the Repuoh-
can party has intrenched itself against the
peopie in .he statute book. They will see the
country 90 to financial ruin before they sur
render the right to count in Republican Con
pressmen. That is the Republican answer to
the patriotic appeal of the Democratic Sena,
tors as presented by Mr.. German. And all
this in the face of the country's recent con-
domination.

The Alliance Platform.

The result of the National Farmers AL
lance Convention; in session at Ocala,
Florida, will be given in future issue of
the ADVOCATE. The conclusions or de-
mands of the Alliance are more moderate
than was generally expected, owing to the
extreme utterances and course of State and
local organizations. We shall have some
thing to say later upon their recommended
tons, simply remarking now that mostof the
principles of the Alliance are embraced in
the Democratic creed, and that the only
hope of farmers and all other classes now
under tribute to the few is in the applica-
ton of Democratic principles to all branches
of government, national and state. A re-
form in the tariff laws and economy in
public expenditures will cure nearly all the
evils complained Of

For few weeks reports from the North
west indicated that the Indians were hold
ing ''ghost dances" and giving indications
of formidable attack on frontier villages
and settlements. Gen. Miles took a serious
view of the situation, and his reports to

Strengthening the military forces, and the
Indians were completely surrounded. Win

The Packed Senate.


Murat Halstead, in one of his sailed note,
from the City of Churches to the inland Cit
of Smoke, said the Senate Of the United
States was so organized that Democratic leg
isation was impossible for this century a
least This meant that through the admis
sion Of unpopulated Territories as States, the
Senate had been packed. In the lofty
language of a Kentucky poet, the people
were in the condition of the little black bull
when
They tied his tail to hickory stump.
And he reared and he pitched, but he couldn'
jump.
President Harrison seems to hold the same
contempt for the will of the people. Well

Madison lwis.l Democrat.

With the farmers against it, handicapped by
a wretched tariff law, condemned for profit
gate expenditure of the public funds, stared
service reform, what hope lies in the future
for the Republican party? Never, seemingly,
has more complete, more utter ruin confronted
political organization. There is absolutely
nothing on which to fasten faith. Noble
traditions have lost their force by reason OF
the extraordinary abuses which the party has
displayed through long life of power. Sheer
ruin is before it. Oblivion will sool claim

The B. 81 o. Railroad in Virginia

The Baltimore Sun of Tuesday, says
President Mayer, of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company, has recently held confer.
ences with delegations from Salem and Roam.
oke, Va, looking to the extension of the
Valley Branch to those places. The delega-
lions presented strong arguments to support
their desire to have the road extended. No
definite conclusion was reached as to when
the extensions would be made, but it was
be far in the future. A director OF the Balti-
more and Ohio, in speaking of the matter,
said that this was not an opportune time to
talk Of railroad construction or extensions,
but he was sure that the Valley extensions
would be made.

Just before the election George Wallace
Delamater, of Meadvile, Pa, instructed
the old lady who furnished lis family with
honey, to send the honey after the 4th of
November to Harrisburg He was then
confident of being elected Governor. The
bank in which he is interested, and which
played an important part in the late cam
paign, has failed, and from the story of
some of Mr.. Delamater's financial TRANSACT
tons, it is not improbable that the old lady
will have to send the Delamater supply Of
honey to the penitentiary.

1t is great mistake to charge all finan-
eial disasters to our financial system, but a
very large part of the American people,
particularly those engaged in agriculture,
are fully convinced that there is something
radically wrong in our policy, and are
pushing fast toward change. Free coin
age, sub-treasuries, tax upon incomes, a
reduction of the high tariff wall that re-
stricts trade, these are some of the rene
dies proposed, and the accomplishment of
all of them are strong probabilities.
