SENATOR-ELECT PALMER of Illinois
has, in a published interview, given
eastern democrats something to think
about. He said: The fact that the
elections next week may change the
whole current of speculation, makes it
vain to engage in political prophecy
now. am hopeful, however, of demo-
cratic success. 1t appears to me beyond
quef ton that we will carry Iowa and in
my opinion, success in that state puts
another presidential or presidential
candidate in the field. Governor Boies
is a man of great intellectually and he
has made a most excellent governor.
The democracy has done and could do a
great many more foolish things than to
nominate Governor Boies. He is adj
mirably situated from geographical
point of view, and this is an important
factor to be taken in consideration. He
is much better situated than Governor
Russell, who 1 suppose will be a candi-
date for the presidency If he is re-
elected in Massachusetts,.

THE meeting of the democratic state
central committee tomorrow promises
to be of unusual interest Among the
most important matters that will come
up for discussion is the question of re-
presentation in party convention.
Various plans have been offered and
each has influential backing. We
would advise the committee TO move
with great caution in the premises. A
radical change from the present system
will not meet with the approval of the
democrats living in the small towns,
To us it seems that the safest position
for the central committee to assume
is to call an extra state convention to
consider the matter, when a modifica
ton of the plans proposed would I'M
doubleday find favor with the repre-
sentatives from the country districts.
AS to the craftsmanship matter, it is
evident that there is more smoke than
fire, and many of the stories that have
been going the rounds of the republi-
can press are gross eXaggerations.
Whether Mr. Davis continues at the
helm, or a new chairman is chosen, will
make but little difference with the re-
ult in Connecticut next year, at least
so far as Waterbury is concerned.

Nobody pretends to know Just how
mnch faster the new form Of race track
is than the old, but nobody will pre-
tend that the performance of SunOl was
as great an exhibition of trotting speed
as that by which the record was fixed
at 3:OS4 by Maud S. Nevertheless,
Sunol's 2;0S4 is the mile record. There
Is a manifest inaccuracy and injustice
in this, as for record-breaking purposes
the conditions most favorable to speed
should be had. The kite-shaped track
does not fulfill the conditions. The
track that does fulfill them is level
mile, straightaway. This is the test to
which henceforth all horses should be
subjected in their efforts at record break
ing. Performances on such track can
be compared with each other without
the confusion and inaccuracy that come
of comparing records made on kite
shaped, circular and clliptical tracks.

rendered decision which is well calcu-
lated to cast a gloom over the spirits of

The court finds that dealing in them is
illegal and void, arguing that they are

that farmers, as a rule, feel more like

they must not overlook the fact that this

they should not expect others to look af-

this, l think, Is Of much importance. It

lance was a grand order, that an organ
iZatiOn that had women to counsel and

there never would be better state Of af-

said that he hoped that we would sue

TO see a look Of contentment upon the
face of every man and woman in all this
broad land. We are laboring to bring
about more prosperous condition Of ai-
fairs, and hoping for brighter day 10
dawn. "May our hopes beSnot in vain"
Many Of US know that the past is full Of
painful dissppOintments, weary toiling
without q just recompense for our labor.
Perhaps these trials were needful, that
out OF them would result great good to
our country. We should mo-. be discour-
aged II we meet with failures, for we
know that all great reform movements
move slowly, and that excellence Ia never
granted to man or woman, but as the re-
ward of labor. 1t argues, indeed, no
small strength of mind to persevere In
habits Of industry, without the pleasure
Of percelvlDg those advantages that some-
times seem slow In approaching. It has
been said that every cloud has silver
lining. Well, clouds cannot always last;
and looking at them now we can see the
light cleaning beyond. Let US look
steadfastly forward. The future lies be-
fore US; and In the years to come may
our hearts be made glad when the re-
suits Of this movement will be appre-
preciated and honored by all mankind,
we will recognize no such word as fail.
We must succeed; for upon the success
Of this movement depends the prosperity
Of this government. In every reform
that Is of importance to the
people, you will find none more earnest
and vigllant, none more willing and anx-
lous TO assist than women. The Grange
knew this when It opened lts doors TO
her, and ! feel that the success Of that
order has been due, largely, to the energy
. d faithfulness OF It's sisters; and feel
sure that she will prove equal to the ex-
pectations OF the brothers OF this order.
Perhaps she may often be silent when
The should have taken part in the discus
lions, but be sure she Is busy thinking

ions on the part Of the brothers and
sisters Of the Alliance must result in

lance by Mrs. NJ. Z. Clark, and Ordered
Printed.
Mr.. President, Brothers and Sisters:
The subject of women in the Alliance
is one of deep interest to US; and when
/ sat down to prepare this paper I won
dered what l could say that would be Of
interest. Could / say anything new?
All no; but there are some things that
bear repeating, and SO we tell them DER
and DER until we are sure all will under
stand. Why she is here and of how
much benefit she may be to the order,
can be answered thus: This is an organ
ization formed for the uplifting OF thou
sands of toil-worn men and women, who
had become discouraged and disheart-
ened at the state of affairs. They saw
plainly that something must be done,
and that quickly, If we would save our
homes and country; and thus they deter
mined to organize themselveslnto an or
der and talk of their plans. They could not
do this and succeed If they failed to rec
ognize, the fact that the wife and mother
were as much interested in the move
ment as they,-that as her counsels were
sought and obtained on all matters of
Importance In the home, 80 also should
she have a voice in their counsels and
work with them. Long before ] became
a member of the Alliance l heard It said
that the Alliance owed Its success largely
to it's women. You who have been mem
bers of the order from the beginning of
the organization know how much truth
there is in the statement. But does it
not seem strange, that knowing her true
heart and wisdom, pertaining to the gov
erning of the home, the rearing and
moulding of the life and minds Of their
children, that she should still be deprived
OF a voice In the governing of our coun-
try? All things that are of interest to
man are of like interest to women. Their
interests should b., and are, TO q
marked degree, identical. The Alliance
did q wise thing when It threw wide
open the door and admitted woman to
membership In the order on the same
equality as men; for well they knew that
her heart and hands, If need be, were as
willing to help In this grand reform
movement as theirs, and l know that the
sisters take as deep an interest in the dis
cussions, and are as regular In attend
ance as are the brothers. Their presence
and management stimulate the brothers
to renewed energy; they are here to dis
cuss, consult and deliberate on all sub
jects that are of common interest to man.

OF course it will depend on the rules the
House adopts, and the committee on rules will
sustain the Speakers policy on tariff reform,
what becomes of the alleged plan of Mr.. Mills
and his friends to circumvent the plan of re-
form in the Speakers mind 1t is said that a
and reference moved to Mr.. Mills committee,
which is that on commerce, composed chiefly
Of Mr.. Mills friends The rules have not been

the subject to be cognate with the committee.
o provision restricting such procedure as
that said to be contemplated by the
Mills men. Their contention is doubtless
that the revenues are intimately concerned
with the commerce of the country, both for
eign and interstate, and therefore within the
jurisdiction Of the committee on interstate and
foreign commerce, as the commerce committee
has been newly ehristened- To this the reply
viii be that the fact that the rules have hereto
fore required and still require revenue subjects
TO be referred to the ways and means commit
tee is sufficient to exclude the topic from the
other committee. The republicans might be
disposed, in order to enjoy the fruits of demo-
cratic division, to vote to refer the bill in &C.
cordance with Mr.. Mills wishes if the reference
could be made at all. But it is probable that
the new rules will be made SO stringent as to
provide against the reference.
