HARMONY.

The st. Louis StW-Sayings says:
"Democratic organizations and or
gans have asserted that the idea of
harmony entertained by the Silk
Stocking clement was the downfall
of Chauncey l. Filcy. 1t is natural
enough for the enemy TO desire tins
to be true, but the men who speak
for the so.called Silk Stocking Gle.
mcnt or anti-Filleyites, say they are
in favor Of harmony, and do not de,
sire to exclude any one from the
party councils and party work. 1t is
even rumorcd that the democratic
party in st. Louis is furnishing the
funds with which 10 continue the dis.
turbancc recently inaugurated be-
tween the so-c2lied Filleyite republi-
cans. The democrats are alarmed.
knowing full we'll that with a united
front the republicans of s.. Louis
will carry the city with EAST and that
the state is trembling in the balance,
with every prospect that the slight
democratic majority will be over
come, owing TO the increase in popu-
~lation, and the large accession to the
republican vote since 1888.
The leaders of the republican party
in ST. Louis are now forcwarned.
"llarmony is the first essential of
success in city and state, and the
man who attempts 10 formulate dis
cord in the party will be stricken
down and marked for all time to
come. Personal preference and van.
ity, must now he sunk for the general
good. Family quarrels can be toler.
ated in an off year, but no, in q pre-
sidential year. That is the way A
majority of the leading republicans
are talking, at tie present time, and
the a who hopes to stand well and
take an active part in politics in the
future can adopt no more dangerous
course at the present time than to
attempt to scatter discord in the re-
publican party"

MIL rs. GLE TELAND.

The democratic party throughout
the United States was profuse in its
applause of David b. Hill, when he
produced his burglars tools and pro.
ceeded after the last election TO steal
the New York senate, from the re-
publlcans. This piece of high handed
bummerism in politics was heralded
as consummatc and mastery states
manship. Blinded by party advantage
the injustice of the work performed
was lost fro n view and the astute
David b. was at ohce voted a resolu-
lion of profound thanks. This SYM
patty is natural when the wrong in
ficted is on the common enemy, but
when this method Of b~urglarzing the
democratic hen roost, is resorted to,
they soon awaken to a realizing sense
Of the Importance of a vigilance COM
mittee, In the language of the fable
it makes a big difference whose OK is
gorcd. But its the same old story.
A man who is so supremcly dictatorial
and unjust rs TO steal the senate from
the republicans, will not for q NOM
cnt hesitate TO steal the whole demo
cratic state delegation for himself.
That Hill is trying to do that every
thing is clear to everybody, and es-
pecially the democrats of New York.
The following resolutions were
adopted at a large Cleveland meeting
u few days ago in New York city:
Whereas, The Democratic State
convention for the election Of dele
gates TO the Democratic National
convention has been called to meet
on February % next, or only four
weeks, notice, although the National
convention is not to meet until June
u, and
Whereas, The outcome of a con.
vention selected in mid.winter upon
so short a call can not be fairly and
truly representative of the democratic
sentiment of the state and would inc
vitably debar the masses of the demo-
cratic voters of the state from the
voice to which they are justly entitled
in the selection Of the democratic
candidate for president and vice.pre-
sident, and the framing of the party's
platform and,
Whereas, The action Of the state
committee is not only un.democratic,
but unprecedented in the history of
the party in this state.
The undersigned invite their fell
low democrats who sympathize with
their views to meet in this city on the
- day of February at s O'Clock to
consider and decide upon the neces
sary measures to secure the best in
t%erests of the democratic party.
This family trouble is, however,
after all, very gratifying to us, be,
cause IL gives the democratic party q
little Of Dayid's own medicine, and
there are many that will vote the re.
publican ticket before they will take
ut. Everything points to at least
four more years Of democratic pro.
ba'lon and republican rule. Poor
! old democrats.

TIE BTSLNESS SII2..l7YON.

The outlook for 1892 grows more
encouraging from day 10 day. The
great financial depression of the past
few years has almost wholly disap.
peared and confidence is being nc.
stored in all departments and avenues
of trade. Every business enterprise
feels the effect of easy money and
nothing is calculated to fill the public
mind with ease as. completely as the
plethoric condition of the bankers
purse The New York banks have
piled up an enormous surplus. De.
posts according to recent report have
reached the great total of S4GG, 0OU,-
900, which is Sos, O0O, 900 greater
than the deposits of one year age.
This condition prevails at other
places, and own local banks are
likewise bothered with q full hand
and few borrowers.
But this will all have q tendency
to stimulate business enterprises. 1t
makes the outlook bright and gives
every promise of a good year. The
only thing in the way is the prcsi
dental campaign, and that will hard
ly be able to block the way.
