THE PARTY AND THE OF
ETCES

The election of Mr.. CLEVELAND and
the restoration of the Democracy to the
administration of tue general govern
ment starts afresh speculation as to
the course he will pursue regarding
the changes of officeholders. There is
little room 10 doubt that his refusal to
treat the federal patronage as SpoilS OF
the conflict, to be apportoned among
few of the victorS-for there can never
be Offices enough for all-was one of the
causes which deprived him of the vote
Of his state in 1888. That large section
of his party who yet cling to the Jack
SOnian conception are wondering nova
days whether Mr.. CLEVELAND has
changed his views and will not
be a little more liberal towards
the outs. 1t is not probable that
lie has or will. The probably au-
thentic statement that he refused
to make the Tammany leaders any
promises of the disposition of the federal
Offices in New York as condition OF
the support Of that organization would
not seem to furnish foundation Tor
the hope Of change. Then Mr. CLENE-
LAND has had the experience which
comes to every officer having appoint
ments to make, which converts them to
a belief in the necessity of removing
the offices from politics, as far as posi-
BILE. Secretary WINDOW once said that, II
you would make civil service reformer
of man. make him cabinet officer. An
other thing that this class Of Democrats
should not overlook is that Mr.. CLENE-
LAND believes that it is his place to
obey the mandate of his party as eX-
pressed in its platform, and that the
Chicago convention adopted very en-
phatic declaration in favor of this re
form. But ii is also true that MI.
CLEVELAND believes that an officer OF
all the people owes to them all his time
and service, and owes to his party
only his vote and support If
they take the time that belongs to
the public to work for their party or
if they use their Offices to advance party
success, they are "Olfensiye partiSans,"
and should be removed. And it is also
true that so sure were the federal Office
holders this time that the Republican
party was to be retained in power they
all, with scarce an exception, devoted
their time and used their offices to help
along party success, and, incidentally,
to convince their superiors of their 10y
atty. These may all, should all, be
swept out. Then there will be large
number of these ofticeholderS who are
so loyal TO their party that they would
not be guilty of the treason of holding Of
fees under the enemy, ana will take care
to have their designations on file before
Mr.. CLEVELAND'S inauguration. 80,
between the offensiveness of the one
class and the loyalty OF the others, it is
very likely that Mr.. CLEVELAND and
his cabinet will have the task Of picking
out good Democrats to fill most Of the
places in their gift. But it will not do to
presume on any change Of views in Mr..
CLEVELAND. He is slow to form them,
but very tenacious of them when made
St. Paul daily globe., 1892-11-20
THE ARGUMENTS FOR.

On the other hand, it is urged that the
co vention denounced the law as
fraud and robbery of the people. The
majority of the voters of the country
said that the charge was true. Faith
with them requires that the party per-
nit no avoidable delay in redeemmg
the promise to stop the robbery. 1t is
urged that the special session might do
no more than organize, appoint the COM
mittees, and set the ways and means at
work and adjourn, giving the latter
committee leave to sit and formulate
bill to be presented in December. Other
reasons, merely political, are that if the
revenue basis is reached the sooner it
is done the better, that there may be a
longer time before elections for its ben
efits to be shown. If deferred until the
regular session, the law would not go
into operation before midsummer of '94,
and Immediately before the congress
sional elections. The result of the cleo
tionS of 'SS following Mr.. CLEvELAND'S
tariff message and of those of go follow
ing the MCKINLEY bill are mentioned
Ill support Vi CulS' 1I Is urged Undt IN
the period between its passage and the
elections every protected manufacturer
in the country would reduce the wages
of his men or shut down his mills for
political effect merely; whereas, if the
law were enacted year previous, they
could not afford to do it and would not. In
the main, these are the arguments which
Mr.. CLEVELAND will give due consid :
Grafton to, and all Democrats are pre-
pared to abide by his Judgment.

One effect of yesterdays game will be

A hothouse where some roses blew,
And whilst the outer world WIS while,
The gentle roses softly grew
To fragrant visions of delight.
Some wretched florist owned them all,
And plucked them from their native bowers,
Then gayly showed them on his stal

Some went beside bed of pain
Where influenza claimed its due;
They drooped and never smiled again,
The epidemic had them too.
A gay young gallant bought some bids
And iauntily went out to dine
With other reckless sporting bIoods.
Who talked of women, drank of wine;
But whilst they talked and smoked apd

And told tales not too sanctifed,
Abashed the timid blossoms shrauk
Changed color, faded, and then died.
Yet roses, too, 1 gave to YOU,

You wore them all the evening through,
You wore them when we came to part.
But now you write to me, my dear,
And marvel that they are not dead,
Their beauty does not disappear,
Their fragrant perfume has not fed.

The flowers known if we ignore hem.
The roses live for sheer delight
AT knowing sweetheart, that you wore

for twenty years and it would be ndeli-
cate for him to do So.

that there was not a labor organization

Elsewhere in today GLOBE is printed
a form of petition to congress for an
open worlds fair Sunday. The petit
ton should be cHt out, piece OF blank
paper pasted on the margin left below
it, and the whole circulated for the sig
natures of those who favor an open
Sunday. When the petition is complete
It should be forwarded to the GLOBE
fol presentation to congress when that
body meets next month.
The GLOBE prints this petition, and
urges its circulation from motives which
are absolutely unassallable. The prop
osition TO close the gates of the
worlds fair on Sunday is inimical
to the cause of education and
enlightenment, and therefore to the
cause of Christianity itself. In what
better spot could mankind spend
that day when labor of the body
ceases. and the soul is our chief care,
than in this vast collection of the
noblest works of human brains and
Drawn? Are not those works achieved
under the benefcent guidance Of AL
mighty God? Will they not fill the
amazed behOlder with new reverence
for His greatness and goodness? Could
a stronger sermon be preached than
will lie uttered by the mute elOquence
of this grand exhibit of the achieve
ments Of God-made man? Could the
soul anywhere find sWeeter solace or
TareT eXaltatiOn than amid these silent
witnesses to the fact that beings whose
earthly accomplishments are so grand
and wonderful must have yet grander,
nObler, more wonderful destiny in the
hereafter?
Ten years of gospel eXhOrtation could
not impress man with the need of graft
tude to God so much as will single
day at the worlds fair. And yet on
Sunday, of all days, it is proposed to
close the fair! 1t is proposed to shut
out the people from this matchless
source of moral inspiration on the very
day which is cOnsecrated to the pur-
poses Of moral elevation. 1t is proposed
to close the fair on Sunday and drive
the hundreds of thousands of Stran-
gers at Chicago into the dives and
disreputabl6 resorts where they are
sure OF Congregate if baked in their
purpose Of visiting the fair. 1t is pro-
posed to close the fair on the only day
when the labOrng classes can visit it
without the loss Of a days wages. 1t is
proposed, in fine, to close the grandest
moral and educational institution the
world has ever known on the very day
of all days to which it is most appro-
pirate, and on which it can reach the
greatest number of those who will be
most benefited by its lessons.
The proposition is an outrage on
morality and Christianity. The worlds
fair must be open on Sundays-open to
all mankind as an Inspiration to noble
purposes and an influence for good.
Stop the machinery and the labor con-
nected with the fair on Sundays, but
leave the doors open and let the vast
exhibit silently tell its story of mans
debt Of gratitude to his Creator and
Protector.
Sign the petition the GLOBE prints
today, and have your neighbors sign it.
Similar petitions will be forwarded
from all parts of the country, and con-
gress will be instructed in no uncertain
terms that the enlightened Christian
people of this republic desire no retro
gression into the ranatical spirit of

THE PRO AND THE CON OF 1T.

Republican papers are unanimously
of the opinion that there should be a
a special session of the Fifty-third con-
greSs to deal with the tariff question.
The fact that they fail to suggest that
the Republican senate at the coming
short session take the Democrats at their
word and pass the several free trade
bills which the house sent over, and
which the senate finance committee
pigeonhOled, robS their suggestions of
any seeming of sincerity. They should,
as they will have to, possess their souls
in patience, for this is a question the
Democrats will settle all by themselves,
and they will go about it in their
own way, at their own good pleasure,
to execute the commission entruSt-
ed to them by over half million more
than half of the voters Of this country.
But it is question worthy of the seri-
Gus consideration of Democrats them
selves, and their opinion in interviews
and editorials is being freely expressed.
The arguments pro and con have been
stated. and are no doubt being cOnsid-
cred by the one man who Will have to
decide. The country has learned to
rely with confidence on his good sense
and Sagacity, and Democrats will cheer
fully accept his decision when made.
