A PAIR OF EN-.

Washington Post: Senator quay
seems to be putting up the pins for the
Pennsylvania Republican State League
meeting. He probably wants vote Oh
confidence.
Sioux City Journal: If Cal Brlce is to
remain at the head of the Democratic
national committee it may be necessary
to retain Matt Quay on the Republican
committee to watch the tricks.
New York Advertiser: Mr.. Quay is
to drop out of the craftsmanship of the
national Republican committee in
September This is timely hint to Mr.
BrIce to retire to business life exclu-
Siyely.
New York Recorder: The resignation
of Matthew Stanley Quay as chairman
Of the national Republican committee
will be bewailed in a great many Demo-
cratic newspaper offices. He was al
Ways good live subject for an editorial
There can he no doubt as to the effect
of Quay'S resignation from the National
leadership at this time. 1t would end
his record in national politics, and re-
mand him to his own state as the llmIl
of his political poWer.-Philadelph
Times.
The Republican party really cannot
afford to carry Quay. The campaign OF
next year will be fought under peculiar
circumstances. The party. certainly.
doesn't want to be compelled to take the
field in defensive attitude. Mime
apoliS journal.
If Quay resigns from the national
committee it does not by any means fol-
low that he will resign from PennSyl-
vania politics. All expectations that
the smooth Matthew Stanley will cease
his anna bln cunprInranhnuon of Cfafa
matters should be abjured.- Pittsburg
Dispatch.
1t is Republicans who have been de-
manding MIR. Quay's resignation. 1t Is
Republicans who have been insisting
that he should step down and out.
There are unexplained matters about
Mr.. Quay'S career which have impairen
his usefulness. There is do question
that he was responsible for the election
Of Democratic governor in PennSyl-
vania.-Peoria Transcript.
Those Republicans who are chuckling
over the Ohio Democratic folly will do
we'll to bear in mind that few more in
stances like this may make it necessary
for the Democrats to nominate Grover
Cleveland for the presidency, if nothing
else doeS.-BoSton Herald GDem.)
Neither the Democrats nor the Re-
publicanS are prepared to draw party
lines on the silver question. 1t can be
in any event only subsidiary queS-
ton, and it cannot Supplant or crowd
aside the vital issue which divides the
two great political organizations
namely: the tariff.-KanSaS City Star
Qnd.)
The New York delegation in the next
convention will not be tor Mir. CleYe-
land, neither will that from Indiana,
and we don't believe the Democrats of
the rest of the Union would under any
conditions be willing 10 give their
brethren of these two necessary states
a direct slap in the face. CHAM

Whatever position Democrats in the
Eastern states may at present assume
on the silver question, it is plain that
the issue in 1892 will be upon that-the
Democrats for free silver and the Re-
publicans for honest money. 1t will be
a fight by the former for silver initiation
as they fought for greenback initiation
in 1S75.-Cincinnati Commercial Gazette
Rep.)
The truth is the West wants to con-
troll the country, and expects the South
to help her do it, and Mr. Bland only
voiced this feeling when he said he was
in favor of nominating a Western man
for president. The thing for the DEM
ocTatic party to do. however, is 70 nOul-
mate the man it can elect. The queS-
ton whether he is an Eastern or a
Western man should not be raised.
There is no doubt that majority OF
the Democrats of the country think that
Mr.. Cleveland is the strongest man that
could be ominated.-SaVannah News
