The Chicago babel was past all pre- eedent. and the country hopes te never see another like it.

The Force Bill.

St. Louis Republic: A number of inquiries have been received as to the origin, purpose and meaning of the force bill, which the republican par ty committed itself to in the plat form adopted by the Minneapolis convention The force bill is the general name for the republican par tvs fayorite scheme to keep itself in power against the will of the peo- pie by controlling the Southern elec- tions. After the democratic party had beaten the republicans in near ly all the southern States i'll spite of President Grants reconstruction policy, there came democratic tid- al wave in the North in the congress sional elections of 1874. 1t greatly alarmed the republicans, who saw their majority in the house of repre- sentatiyes suddenly converted into a big democratic majority, and they set about deyising scheme that would enable them to regain control of the House. The result was the first force bill introduced into con- gress early in 1875. and passed by the republicans of the House by q big majority a few days before the 4th of March. when their time would he up. But the democrats in the senate made firm stand, with Sen ator Bayard of Delaware at their head, and, though in minority, de feated the infamous scheme by blocking business until March A. This bill gave the president power to declare martial law at his pleas ure in the four states of Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi, and contained other provisions mak- ing him practically dictator over the Southern States. If the bill had passed the republicans by the use of bayonets and returning boards i'll the south would easily have regain ed control of the House at the very next election. James G. Blaine of Maine was opposed to this first force bill, and did good service in helping to defeat it. The next force bill was concocted by the same ruiilanly gang of political desperadoes, and was introduced in the Reed congress by Lodge of massachusetts, Like the old force bill of Grants time, it passed the House and was defeated in the Senate-this time by com bination between democratic and free silver republican Senators. If it should ever become a law the people would be deprived of all control over the choice of congressman and presi- dential electors. Upon the petition of a few hundred voters in any con gressional district the nearest Fed eral Judge wonld appoint election supervisors with authority to order United States soldiers to the polls and also returning board to can vass the votes and issue certificates of election 1t would be peniten tiary ofiense for clerk of the House to reject any certificate of election issued by such returning board or to accept the certificate issued by any State officer in conflict herewith. In short, the force bill to which the re- publican party is pledged by the Minneapolis platform would enable MT. Harrison or any other republi- can president to re-elect himself for life and keep republican majority in the House of Representatives all the time.

 Mir. Earnahan IS the oldtlme Democrat hater recently nominated as the r. r. candidate for Governor. Although he is not n farmer, but q teacher and engaged in the lumber business. we learn the committee found him hocing corn. This was injected into the dispatch as 2 great point. which of course, clearly es- tahlisies his claim to the support Of all farmers, who, now that Mir Car naham has been discovered loosen ing the ground in the region of the corn rows iii his truck patch, will at once aband on the old party lines and elect him Governor
 Hoeing corn will hardly be con sidered hy the public in the light of a qualification or disqualification for Governor Col. Fishback owns aad cnItivatcs farm No doubt, like Mr Carnaham, he occasionally iIourishes d hoe in the rows of the golden maize, and we feel satisfied that in a competitive bout he would distance farmer Carnahan at least twenty hills in row.
 However, we are glad the com lnittee found Farmer Carnahan, whose yield of corn, no matter how poor, will prove a million fold more bountiful than the political crop he has undertaken to cultivate

Cleveland and Stevenson.

 last week Grover Cleveland was triumphantiy nominated as democ- racy's standard-bearer by the Chica- go convention. Indeed, the logic of history never pointed more unerr- ingly to any one event than for four years it has pointed to his nomina ton, because every consideration of policy and principle demanded it. Any other. selection would have been a repadiation of the only plat
 form upon which the party could stand. A declaration for tariff re- iform would have been an empty pre- tense and a fraud if accompanied by a refusal to nominate the only man who stands as distinctive repre- sentative of that issue. IL is the same as to civil seTyice reform and Ievery other live democratic issue. l That he will make an ideal candi- date none sill deny. He rises in every sense to the full stature of a 1 presidential nominee No man of l tAis generation has impressed his personality 50 forcibly upon the l American people. For gigantic courage and honesty, tempered with wisdom, he stands pre-eminent the statesman of to-day. What if a few ] politicians and handful of leaders Of Tammany Hall are against himt
 For every vote which these take from him they bring five to him
 They are the strongest possible trib-
 ute to his character and fitness, and furnish the greatest imaginable in centiye for the people to rise mp and
 elect him again to the chief magis
 tracy of the nation. And this is ljust what they intend doing, judg 1 ing from the enthusiasm his nomi- nation has aroused in all parts ot
 the country
 Hon. Adlai F. Stevenson, of III linois, the nominee for yice-president is distinguished democrats
 stalwart of the stalwarts. He is 5t
 years old. and many are the higf 1 positions of trust he has filled. IT ] 1878 he was elected to the 46th con 1 gress and again in 1882 he was re turned to the 4Sth His three terms in the national house of representa- ] tiyes were characterized ny sucl
 eminent services in behalf of tn, public and such unswerving fidelity
 to his party as to place him in tht l foremost rank of democratic states
 men. In fact his official career dur l ing that period so commended hin
 to the country as faithful, honest
 and deserving servant of the peopl, 1 that in 1885 he was appointed by
 President Cleveland as first as
 sistant postmaster general, a posi-
 sition lie filled with marked dis
 tinction His record as decapita
 tor of fourth class postmasters wor
 him warm place in the hearts O I loyal democrats, and caused repub licans to call him the headsman. I SIn naming him as Mir Cleveland. Ifunning mate the convention chos,
