sent over to watch Archbishop sIreland.

THE TOPIC OF THE DAY.
VIII the Democrats Have to Go West
for q Standard Bearer?


WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-The presiden-
tial question still continues to be the
topic of conversation at the national
capital, and various opinions are ex-
pressed as to the effect the final declara-
tion of the Albany convention for Hill
will have. Chairman Springer, of the
ways and means committee, who has
generally been considered heretofore as
an ardent supporter Of Cleveland, thinks
now that the action of the Albany con-
vention practically rules the ex-presi-
dent out of the race. In an interview
today Springer said:
''It would be folly for other states to
insist upon Cleveland's nomination when
his own state has unanimously de-
clared for another. If Cleveland's name
is to be presented to the national Demo-
cratic convention, it must be presented
by his own state. | have always been a
great admirer of Cleveland, and still
retain much confidence in his ability
and his devotion to the principles OF the
Democratic porty. Those friends of his
in New York who propose to hold an
other convention and send another set
of delegates to the national convention
are doing him great injustice. The
Democratic party is earnestly endeavor-
ing to reinstate itself in power. This
can only be done by united and deter
mined action. Boilers will find no favor
with the Democratic Masses"
Springer further said that in view of
the dissensions in the state Of New York
it may be found necessary for the De-
mocracy of the other states to select
presidential candidate elsewhere. In
this event the Democracy of Illinois will
present the name Of John M. Palmer.
NEW York, Feb. 24.-The Herald's
Washington man telegraphs: "The
boiled down, double distilled and clari-
fed sentiment at the capitol concerning
the Democratic presidential outlook is
that neither Hill nor Cleveland can win
the fight for the nomination, and that
the nominee must come from the west"

The Hired Girl Famine.

The one want which civilization is un-
able to supply to order is the hired girl.
Minneapolis has almost inexhaustible re-
sources in all the necessities, comforts
and luxuries for which man and woman
yearn, except in that dire necessity, that
exceeding comfort and rare luxury-the
efficient, neat, faithful and responsible
hired girl. With an output of clerks
and typewriters equal only to that of
flour and lumber, profusion of pretty
girls as remarkable as our possession of
lakes and parks, and an overflow of
brainy and useful femininity like unto
that of our proverbial enterprise and
water power, Minneapolis must yet con-
fess that in the line of a first class article
of hired girl we have scarcity approach
ing famine.
But the scarcity does not seem to be
confined to this city. Even in the fertile
country districts of the state, where SEN
sible and Industrious girls are supposed
to grow up in prolific plenty, there is
the same sharp demand and pitiable
paucity.
Our country readers even advertise in
the want columns in the faint hope that
housekeeper may be bribed from her
city position to accept a station as queen
of rural kitchen. In short, the hired
girl famine is general. 1t is getting to
be the principal occupation of the mis-
tress of house nowadays to hunt hired
girls, and a necessary qualification of a
wife that she be able to successfully
steal, bribe or persuade away her neigh
bors' girls.
Doubtless a prominent cause of the
hired girl famine is the fact that the girl
who successfully masters the sciences
and arts of cookery and housekeeping is
Immediately besieged with matrimonial
offers. Girls of such accomplishments
are never in danger of becoming old
maids. Women of blood and Drawn,
health and domestic capacity, will be in
demand as long as the home is the cradle
of civilization Minneapolis Tribune
