EDMUNDsl SUCCESSOR.

The appointment of Hon. Redfeld Proctor,
Secretary Of War. 10 the Vermont United
States senatorship made vacant by the resg-
nation of Senator Edmunds. will leave an
opening in the War Department which many
Republican politicians Will be eagerly desir-
GUS OF filling. Mr. Harrison has, as yet, Giyen
no intination as 20 who he will select. but rs
the position is one which, in time Of peace
is more honorable then useful, there is no
danger that the country will be at all seri-
ousy disturbed, no matter upon whom he
may finally settle
In the appointment Of Proctor as senator
Governor Page, of Vermont, has certainly
made selection in accordance with the rush
ING spirit Of the age which subordinates states
manship 10 money making, even in so pre-
sumedly staid and dignifed body as the
United States Senate. The new senator is de
scribed as driving, active man Of affairs, i'm
mersed up TO the ears in railroads, marble
quarries, mills and other projects for accu-
mulating money rapidly. Avery decided and
striking contrast this TO the thoughtful, stu
dious, iudiciOus minded and eloquent mac
who made bis mark in the Senate, and out
side of his partisan maignancy reflected
credit upon the higher house Of Congress in
the days whom it was in the habit Of honorng
mind and intellect.

WAGES AND PIG Iron.

Hon. Carroll D. Wright hes given much
time and care to the investigation of wages
North and South and the difference in the
cost of producing ton of pig iron in Penn
sylvania and Ohio and in the South.
In both cases the result Of the Investigation
was favorable TO this section. He has pre-
pared @ report on the subject of wages, in
which he demonstrates that in Pennsylvania
the protected manufacturer notwithstanding
their clap-trsp talk about McKinleyism pro-
tectng worknen, pay for given amount Of
work less than what is paid in the South for
the same labor. while he shows that a ton of
pig iron can be produced in the South for
slO75 that in Ohio and Pennsylvania would
cost Sl3.%.
lie accounts for this from the fact that the
great natural advantages of the South are
shown by the lower cost Of the raw material
as compared with the cost in Pennsylvania
and Ohio, which makes it possible to pay
somewhat higher wages and still TO market
the iron at a lower price than can the States
of Mckinley and Quay.

The latest piece Of presidential gossip Is
| that the friends of Mr.. Cleveland are actively
| working 10 secure the New York Delegation
| 10 tho Democratic nominating convention ior
| him. and that they will continue TO so WORK
| until they are convinced they cannot succeed.
| In that case, il is stated they will throw al
| their influence for German. whose chances
| for securing the nomination will, 1t Is be-
lieved. bs thereby materially strengthened.
IL is hardly probable, however, that inc
hopes of the friends of Dir. German in TINS
respect can be realized Every ono comedies
that Governor Hill can, il he is determined to
do go defeat Mr.. Clevennd's nomination by
controlling the New York delegation against
him: but when he does that he has done oil
he can. He cannot command the nomination
for himself. and il Cleveland fails TO get 1t
candidate outside Of New York will be looked
for
But IL is not likely that Mr.. German will be
selected. His Democracy ia unquestloned
and his ability ia acknowledged. His yeoman
service in effecting the defeat of the Force
bill is also fully recognized, and he Is entitled
b. and does receive tho commentator and
gratitude not of his party alone, but OF oil
friends OF free government as we'll, as for his
patriotic opposition to that Infamous measure.
Still in case Cleveland fails Of the nomination
it will hardly 60 70 him.
The West and the South are natural politl-
cal allies. and their interests will DO specially
common in the coming presidential campaign.
IL e., IL. ha
between the two great parties, because only
upon that Issue are Democracy and Repubh-
canism entirely divided In such reform the
West and the South feel unusual interest be
cause both are largely agricultural, and tho
present oppressive tariff system bears harder
upon the farmers than any other class. Upon
this issue the Democrats have already won
magnificent victory, and upon 1t alone can
they hope 10 present such n solid front IN '92
as 10 again sweep the country. Democratic
success next year, therefore. will depend
mainly upon the political union OF the South
and West for the repeal Of the Mckinley law.
Under these circumstances = is most natu-
raj that tho West should consider itself en-
titled to the presidency, and the reasonable
ness of It's position must be recognized by tho
Democracy Of the country. Cleveland's name
is more intimately connected With tariff re-
form than that Of any man in the country. as
he is conceded TO be prominently the cham
pion and pioneer Of such reform. and II IS
known that only because he preferred 20 be
right than president, and advocated reform Of
the tariff before the people understood clearly
what he meant, was his overwhelming re-eec-
tionin Isss prevented. The West therefore will
| willingly accept Cleveland as the bearer OF the
reform banner; but if he is not chosen by tho
! party. will demand q Western representative
at the head OF the ticket
For these reasons the next Democratic pres
idential nominee will neither be German nor
Hill. He will either be Cleveland or West
ern man.

Ex-SprAKER REED sneers at reciprocity and
at attempts to carry on commerce by diplo-
macy" He arrives At the sapient conclusion
that the commercial world can only do bust
ness Oh great commercial principles. not on
correspondence with State departments. "
These expressions of opinion on the part Of
the ex-Czar are called forth evidently from
jealousy Of Blaine, and were only intended to
strike at him because he was the father of the
reciprocity clause in the Mckinley bill Still
they have the sound of truth. and what is
more they are as applicable to the whole Nc
Kinley policy as they are to the reciprocity
clause.
1t is curious, however. TO hear the ex- Gar
talk about how the commercial world should
carry on commerce when his House did all
they could to prevent the world from carry
ing on any commerce with this country at all.
