the cautery, perhaps, but should de-
pend more confidently upon a medicine
even though a poison-which should
control the disease itself.
lntemperance is itself but a fostering,
local sore in the body politic-a "break-
ing out" that is due to the inherited
faint still lingering to blight the per-
lection of the children of men, that dis.
ease of the blood, ''pure cussedness."
It is infinitely more wise and more HUI
name, to cauterize the local sore, admin
lister the cathartic of high license and
the tonic of education and leave the
rest to time and Providence, than to ap-
ply a sticking plaster and proclaim
that the body is sound. That part
which has no sore can not by such
course he harmed. Where lntemper-
ance does not exist to require such a rem
edy it need not be applied. Where the
present evils are manifest, there the
remedy will work.
There n was One who, when re-
viled because He faced contamination
and scrupled not to minister disease
of both soul and body, replied that it
was His mission to save-not that which
was already safe-but that which was
lost. There is such a thing as a sanctity
that is too sanctimonious; a virtue too
good to he useful. The kind which is
helpful to mankind is that which is in
sta Mt TO hellwith the best means at
hand, which pulls the OK out of the pit
even though it be on the Sabbath day,
or though a little grass be trodden
down. It is oftentimes necessary and
right and wise to "do a great right, a
little wrong, and curb this cruel
monster of his will" North Dakota
will never be benefited by closing her
citizens eyes to any existing evil; least
of all by pretending that because only
one kind of pig hourishes on the farm
and the ranch, non other is roofing in
the towns and cities. Because the rep
resentatives Of newspapers, and other
citizens of her towns and cities decline
to spy on their neighbors and map out
in black and white the devious ways of
the blind pig, it does not follow that the
cry Of mo proof" is well-founded.
Clergyman and others whose life keeps
them as "far from the maddening crowd
as from the mysteries of the cinch
table, may be pardoned if they do not
know what the crowd is doing or drink
ing; but they should not imagine that
there is no "pig," because they do not go
where they can sac the curl of his tail.

dience to a given rule, though the major
part of the individuals may freely ad-
NIT it's Righteousness as personally ap-
Piled. The effort to perform this more
than Augean labor has, perhaps, formed
one Of the most stubborn obstacles in
the path Of reform, of all kinds and in
all periods of history. Reformers, con-
centrating their attention upon one
sore spot in the body-politic, have been
prone to demand a cure of that spot, and
an instant cure, regardless of the disease
OF which it is, perhaps, but the local
manifestation, as we'll as other sores of
possibly far greater danger; all Of which
ought to have been considered and none
ignored, in the attempt to diagnose the
case and prescribe an efeetnal remedy.

they had been willing, we're it possible,

A Billion Dollar Congress.
The Present Democratic House Beats
the Record of the 5Ist Congress.

The Present Democratic House Beats
the Record of the 0Ist Congress.
Mr. Holman of Indiana, the champion
Democratic Economist" and "watch-dog
of the treasury" submitted in the House
last week comparison of the appropria-
tions of the present session of Congress
with those of the first session of the last
Congress According to Mr.. Holmans
statement the total appropriations, regular
and permanent, for the present session, are
S4S5, ,SS7, III, while those of the first ses-
sion of the last Congress were S54l ,23O,-
672. Deducting from these amounts the
regular and deficiency pension apprOpria-
tions, Mr.. Holman claimed that the appro-
priations for the first session of the last
Congress exceeded the appropriations for
this session by S33, ,294, $40. He admitted
in his statement that the deficiencies APP
proprated for by this Congress amount to
only S14 AL, 121, as compared with $685.
600. 746 appropriated for by the first session
of the last Congress; also that the Fifty
first Congress, at its first session. appro-
priated S32, ,j41 ,6j4 for the navy, while
this Congress has SO far appropriated only
SO, ,47G,7
This statement was promptly met with
one in rebuttal for the Republicans by Mr..
Henderson of Iowa, showing that the reg
ular and permanent annual appropriations
provided for by the House in the first ses-
sion of the Fifty-frst Congress aggregated
only S443, 30, ST., while in the present ses-
sion of the House there has been appro-
priated S4S5, ,SS7, ~, making the appropri-
ations of the House for this session exceed
those of the House for the first session of
the Fifty-frst Congress by %42, ,4O9,-
III. In a separate statement Mr.. Hen
derson showed that the present House has
appropriated for pensions only $142, 499,-
39s, as against S164,550,3 1888 appropriated
in the first session of the last Congress.
According to Mr.. Henderson state
ment, therefore, the correct figures for com
parison are these

The Peoples Party in the Field.


The peoples Party held a three-days
convention at Omaha on Saturday, Sunday
and Monday, nominating Gen. James B..
Weaver of Iowa for the presidency on the
first ballot Monday evening, and Gen. j..
b. Field of Virginia for vice president
The gathering took more the form of a
mass meeting than of a delegate conven-
tion. The report of the committee on Gre
dentials showed 400 delegates present,
though one account says the total number
was 1776. About 1900 votes were cast on
the ballot for presidential candidates. The
session of Sunday was devoted in the main
to speeches and tributes to Gen. Polk, the
dead leader of the party. There were nu-
merous scenes of excitement and wild CON
fusion at various stages in the proceedings.
The most remarkable of these occurred af
ter the adoption of the platform with its
strange aggregation of alleged principles"
The scene at that time, when, for forty
minutes, the convention resolved itself into
a frenzy, the state delegations marched
around the hall in endless procession, men
piled themselves up in pyramids, and the
tumult was so great that a drum corps
could not be heard few yards away, is
described in a paragraph elsewhere print
ed. In another column extracts are also
given which show the quality and general
tenor of the platform, which sees in free
silver and an unlimited extension of the
currency remedy for all existing evils,
and declares that the government should
take possession of railroads, telegraphs,
telephones and other public corporate prop
critics.
Gen. Weaver, the presidential candidate
of the party, is native of Ohio. 80 years
old. He is a lawyer by profession, served
in the army and came out with a good rec
ord, has been newspaper man, has served
three terms in Congress, and in 1850 was
the candidate of the National Greenback
Labor party, receiving 3O7, 74O Votes.
A strong faction among the delegates
was bound to carry through the nomina-
ton of Judge Walter Q. Gresham as the
presidential candidate of the party, and
might probably have succeeded had not
Judge Gresham sent telegram positively
declining TO allow the use of his name. This
scheme was worked and encouraged by
outside influence, undoubtedly, in the hope
to draw votes away from the Republican
party through Judge Greshams candidacy.

From the New York Press
Among the prominent Republicans who
have been in New York during the week
were the venerable Senator Morrill,, the
energetic Col l.. X. Fuller, and the equally
active Col. j. j. Estey of Vermont Col.
Fuller is the Republican candidate for gov
ernor Naturally none of the three gentle
man are worrying in the slightest degree
over the prospects of November in the
Green Mountain state, where majorities
range II, 900 to 10000 in a total vote of
from 5000 to $4,000 with the greatest
regularity. But their opinions as to the
presidential nomination of the party are
valuable as showing the sentiment in this
strongly Republican commonwealth. Sen
ator Morrill, said that the state would give
President Harrison a very much larger
Republican vote than was cast for him in
1885, because the Presidents visit to the
state last fall incidental to the Bennington
centennial, had brought him into contact
with the people, had shown them his COM
manding ability and had contributed
largely to increase his popularity. Col.
Estey called attention to the fact that Yer
mont delegates in the convention of 1888,
under the leadership of Gen. Proctor,
afterward secretary of war and now sena-
tor, had cast their votes for the nomination
of Mr.. Harrison, and that nothing could
be more gratifying to the state than his re-
nomination at the present time.

A Warm word for Col. FuIIer.

From the Springfield Republican of Tuesday,
To the Editor Of the Republican,:
l crave your indulgence to say a word in
defence of Col, L. X. Fuller against the
charges of incompetency, an "itch for of
fee" and the use of money to obtain the
same. 1t is true that Col. Fuller is free
with his money, as the writer and many
other poor men can testify, but that he
uses it for corrupt purposes nobody who
knows him would believe. Col. Fuller is
publc-spirited and loves to serve the peo-
pie and be thought well of by his neigh
bors, and, if that constitutes "itch for Of
fee" then he has got it and got it bad, and
will have to plead guilty. But the man
who says that Col. Fuller is wanting in
ability to fill the gubernatoral chair of
Vermont is a man who does not know him.
Nobody but a knave would make such a
charge, and only fool would believe it. l
do not agree with the colonel politically,
and would not support him if citizen of
his state, but if l didn't it would not be
because he is wanting in any of the char
acteristics that enter into the composition
of a worthy official for the highest Office
in the gift of the people.

w. j. Campbell of Chicago, whose cleo
tion as chairman of the Republican nation
al committee was announced last week,
visited Washington on Tuesday, and after
an interview at the White House the an
nouncement was made public that Mr..
Campbell would not be able to serve, and
would tender his resignation to the execu-
tive committee. AT the time of his cleo
ton Mr.. Campbell's acceptance was made
provisional on his being able to so arrange
his business affairs as TO permit him to un-
dertake the laborious duties of the Office.
This arrangement he was not able to make,
and he therefore tenders his resignation.
Further than this, his wife is in a precari-
Gus condition of health, and her physician
insists that she must take an ocean voyage
this summer This she will not do without
her husband, and Mr.. Campbell will, both
as matter of duty and of personal desire,
take his own vacation by accompanying
her on their journey. Whatever reports
may be circulated to the contrary, these are
the reasons which have decided Mr.. Camp
bell not to serve. The fact that his clients,
Armour & Co., of Chicago, who pay him
many thousands of dollars yearly for legal
services, are not willing to release him to
do the work of the campaign, is in itself
testimonial to the value of his services that
makes all the more apparent the good judg-
ment shown by the President in suggesting
him for the chairmanShin
The latest intmation is that Senator
Proctor may now be chosen to manage the
campaign. The work could not be given
into ADLER hands.

The National Prohibition Party.

The Prohibitonists held their national
convention at Cincinnati on Thursday and
Friday of last week, and nominated Gen
John f. Bidwell of California for pres-
dent and j. b. Cranfll of Texas for vice
president. Gen. Bidwells name was pre-
sented and his nomination was carried by
a vote of 800, against 32l for all other can
didates. The platform declares for the en-
tire suppression of the manufacture, sale,
importation, expectation and transporta-
tion of alcoholic liquors as a beverage by
federal and state legislation. 1t also de-
clares for universal suffrage without regard
to sex, for the free and unlimited coinage
of silver and gold, for government control
of railroads, telegraphs and other public
corporations, and for the proper restriction
of immigration. Tariff should be levied
only as a defence against foreign govern
ments which levy tariff upon or bar out
our products" The Republican and Dem
ocratic parties are both caustically arraign-
ed for being false to the standards reared
by their founders, and faithless to the
principles of their leaders. Both par
ties are accused of "professing fealty to
the toiling masses, but cOvertly trucking
to the money power in their administration
of public affairs"

The English general elections are in
progress this week, and the whole civil
lied world watches the result with interest
because of its effect on the home rule
cause. The first elections showed large
gains for the Liberals, but the rate has not
been maintained since Several notable
men have fallen outside the breastworks
in their effort to obtain seats in parliament,
Henry NJ. Stanley, the great explorer, and
the Marquis of Lorne, husband of the
Princess Louise, being among them. In
both cases the result is mortifying. 1t is
understood that it was his wife's ambition
which made Stanley enter the lists, but his
defeat was foreshadowed from the first.
Wherever he attempted to speak he was
received with jeers and boots, and in some
cases with showers of missiles, even. Mr.
Stanley had happier time apparently,
when he was plain American citizen.

Southern planters have this year given
more attention than ever to grain crops,
with which they appear to have been very
successful. South Carolina and other
states report abundant harvests already
gathered, and growing crops in very prom
ising condition. In South Carolina, ac-
cording to the Columbia Register, one of
the finest crops of wheat and oats ever
known has been harvested, and corn is
looking finely. Furthermore, the crops
will be produced % per cent cheaper than
in any year since the days of slavery.
Scientific tillage has been introduced and
rigid economy practiced. The Southern
farmers have evidently learned a valuable
lesson from the over-production of cotton
which has been going on for the past few
years, and are showing commendable en-
terprise in putting this lesson into practical
effect.

The United States Senate passed a free
cisive vote of 20 to % after one of the hot
test parliamentary contests ever seen in
that body. Seven Democrats-Brice, Car
Isle, German, Gray, Palmer, Mcpherson,
and White-voted with the Republicans
against free coinage. Eleven Republicans,
the representatives mainly of the silver
states of the Northwest, voted with the
Democrats in favor of free coinage. Cam
eron of Pennsylvania misrepresented the
sentiment of that state by voting with the
free silver men. Hill OF New York made
his maiden speech in the Senate, and fol-
lowed it up by crossing the long-anticipated
silver bridge and casting his vote for free
silver. The bill is as positive a free coin
age measure as could be framed. 1t pro
vides that any owner of silver bullion may
deposit it at any mint of the United States
to be coined for his benefit, and it further
says that the secretary of the treasury shall
