ENLIGHTENED PRINCIPLES.

The recent course of large section of the
Gillian people has not been of a character to
justify the belief that liberal principles of To-
cal administration or general public policy
have q firm seat in the CHILEAN Republic The
enlightened record which the Republic had
made previous to the unhappy troubles which
led to the establishment of the present gov
eminent. has been deeply furnished by the
violent methods which have been employed
since the Inauguration Of the revolution which
closed with the election Of Mont to the presi-
dency.
Now that peace has been restored upon a
permanent footing, there are indications that
large and influential party in the Republic
are determined that the reactlonary spirit
represented in the movement of Balmaceda
shall not again impede the progress of the
country.

course Of the late disturbances subordinated
every consideration to the one desire that the
country should not be brought under the
yoke of dictatorship. have recently reasserted

rHyprMoCEATIc CONVENTION.

Juue DIST next and Chicago have been Sc
lected by the National Democratic Executive
COMMITTEES as the time and place for holding
the Democratic nominating convention to Sc
select a presidential standard bearer for the
party. New York, Cincinnati. Detroit IN
dianapolis. Kansas City. Milwaukee oan
Francisco and st. Paul were all candidates
for the honor. but Chicago. which did not
even enter the contest. was chosen.
What bearing this may have on tho nomi-
nation 10 be made. it is hard 10 see. 10 would
naturally have been supposed that the pollti-
cal triumyirate. composed OF Hill, German
and Brce. who are pronounced anti-CleYe-
land men. would have favored New York. as
they could in that city the more easily ma
nipulate the New York delegation. Besides
this. New York was advocated by Colonel
John r. Fellows. leading adherent of Hill.
and an ex-Confederate. who, II Will be re-
membered. made speech about year ago
in which he said he knew he had committed
treason against the Government Tor
Joining the Confederate army, and felt
very grateful for the magnanimity
shown him when he was not hanged. The
selection OF Chicago over New York would.
therefore. seem at first blush. to mean
Cleveland victory. But when 1t Is reflected that
decision in favor Of New York would Lave
been regarded az too open declaration on
the part Of the Hill men to carry their point
by political trickery and scheming. the theory
is very plausible that Hill. German. Bnce "
Co. were too old birds TO allow themselves to
be so easily caught. and that. for reasons OF
their own. they secretly worked for Chicago
and succeeded in gaining victory while APP
parently suffering defeat.
Whether the choice OF Chicago has any sig
nifcance or not. however. one thing IS very
! certain. and that is that the friends of Dir.
! Cleveland have no cause to feel discourage
ment thereat If the opponents Of that gen
tleman thought it better to 20 West than East
so as to Offset Cleveland influence IN the
former section. it shows that they were forced
TO acknowledge his strength in the West: and,
on the other hand. if it was the Cleveland
! influence which caused New lork TO be de-
/ feated il was OF course a decided victory for
/ the e1- President At any rate. Chicago Is re-
| cOgnlZed as the great metropolis Oh Tic Noilu-
west. and if the Northwest is for Cleveland
as there is every reason to believe it is-iust
as the undercurrent of feeling in all other
sections OF the country is for him he viii
not suffer by that city being made the gene
raj rendezvous for the Democracy Of the
Union.
In the meantime it is we'll worth noting
that AIr. Cleveland is indulging in no special
worry about the matter. lie is quietly pur
suing the even tenor of his way, refusing
to condescend to the slightest trickery 81
manauvering. and leaving it entirely to the
party to indorse him as a true and sincere ex
ponent of Democratic principles. or to settle
| upon any other Democratic leader who they
in their wisdom, may see fit TO select

THE election Of Hon. Charles H. Gibson to
fill the unexpired term of the late Hon. Z. X.
Wilson. Senator from Maryland, calls renewed
attention to the law. which has long been on
the statute books of Maryland, requiring that
one of the Senators from that State shall be
from the Eastern Shore, and the other from
the Western Senator Gibson was elected as
the representative of the Eastern Shore. An
effort has been made to repeal this law. as il
was originally passed simply to crafty local
pride. There are circumstances under which
its operations would be damaging to the real
interests of the people. The Senators Of a
State are rightly supposed to represent the
whole state irrespective Of its physical divi-
sions. and in the light OF this fact, the law of
Maryland is wrong in principle apart from the
harm which it is liable at times to do.

Is his speech in tho Senate on Thursday
Senator PETER announced that the only
proper and safe test concerning the amount
OF money needed by the people was their own
reasonable estimate based on their personal
experience. If personal experience of ma
jority of the people Of the United States is TO
be taken as test of the amount of money
which is needed for circulation, then the cur
rency will have TO be increased to the point
which will make every citizen as wealthy as a
Gould or an Astor. There is no such thing
as reasonable estimate as 10 the amount OF
money which is wanted by each individual.
1t is the one thing about which the mass of
people are wholly unreasonable in their est-
mates, and nothing short Of whole nation OF
millionaires would afford universal satisfsc-
ton.
