National Democratic Committee.

CHICAGO, June A.-The new national
Democratic committee met at the Pal
mer house Immediately after the con-
vention. A temporary organization was
effected by electing the old officers OF
the committee, viz: Calvin s. Brice, Of
Ohio, chairman, and ). P. Sherin, of In
diana, secretary. Resolutions regretting
the death of Senator John s. Barbour,
of Virginia, and q. A. Brodwater, of
Montana, were passed. All the new
members wese present. The committee
adjourned to meet in New York subject
to the call of the chair. The impression is
that they will meet about July 10. The
convention adopted resolution that the
chairman and secretary could not be Sc
lected from the committee, but could
be chosen from outside of the commit
tee. 1t is understood that this was
passed with the understanding that ex-
Secretary Whitney, of New York, who
has managed the Cleveland campaign,
will be made permanent chairman of
the committee when it perfects its or

To the Republican Rooster.

Poor thingl But yesterday, as it we're,
nations trembled at thy voice. When
with clarion notes thou didst proclaim
liberty to the slave, the whole world re-
joiced and sang anthems Of praise;
crowned monarchs, barring their heads,
extended to thee the friendly hand and
pledged eternal friendship. Then, in
deed, thou vert proud and happy bird.
But, now alasI in the language Of Marc
Antony, "None will stoop to do thee rev.
erence." All yes. dear bird, I will mourn
for thee. / will weep over thy grave
Thy sainted memory shall be entwined
about my heart and ! win remember
with sorrow and regret how many heavy,
heavy burdens were heaped upon thee
until their very weight was more than
thou could'st bear. The gold-bugs Of
Wall street, the great railroad corpora
tions, monopolies and trusts, and even
prohibition in the once fair-famed Kan
sss, all climbed upon thee and brought
thee down. Hadst thou been left untrsm-
meled-free to exercise thine own gen.
erous will, thou would'st long since have
extended the hand of friendship to the
fallen foe, bound up his wounds, and by
gentle acts Of mercy and brotherly love,
restored his house to order; and feeling
the power and majesty OF thy might, he
too would now have been knesling at thy
shrine. But, mol The bloody garment
must be waved until a little band Of
thine own faithful soldiers at Wichita,
Kansas, proclaimed to the world that
the civil war was over, and defiant of the
party lash, extended to the vanquished
the solve branch of peace" Oh, proud
and noble bird, whilst seeing the shadow
Of thy downfall upon the wall, thou didst
weep great tears Of joy over that sainted
band Of faithful followers who, amid the
carnage of war and desolation, formed in
solid phalanx around thy chariot Of gold
and upheld the flag of our nation, and
there proclaimed peace and good will to
all--they, too, will plant sprig Of acassia
at thy grave, and water it with tears Of
love. Rest in peace, thou noble bird.

THREE DAYS OUT.


Three suns have set since we Get sail.
The night is dark; no star illumines the
heavens. Clouds o'ercast the skies, and,
oh, the chilliness OF these winds from the
shore. When we embarked few stars
were still shining, many OF the northern
lumlnaries still cast an evanescent glow
in their orbits. True it was that one by
one the wavsring ones had gone out, and
with the departure OF each, more raw be-
came the breeze; louder and harsher
seemed the cries Of the elated opposition
as the returns rolled up the majority for
the Prophet. Nevertheless, after we set
sail, twas indeed comforting to gaze upon
the bright spots still left, and rejoice at
their steadfastness. But alasI the dark
ness has increased. One by one even
these stars have gone out, and the shouts
which are borne to our ears tell Us that
they sre now shining In another political
camp. New York, Indiana, Connecticut,

REFORM OR REVOLUTION.

sons assigned for the signal defeat OF th'
republicans at the polls. Some say i
was the tariff, some charge it to the for
eign vote, some say it was the pension
question, and so on and so forth by th'
column and by the yard. There is some
force in all the alleged reasons, including
the one that the nomination OF Mr.
Whitelaw Reid was serious mistake
and that the unfortunate attitude Of thC
administration toward Mr.. Blaine went {
long way toward giving the party a chill
There is force in all these reasons anC
all Of them had great effect upon the re
suit. This was especially true in thC
central and eastern states. In the west
in the Missouri valley and west to the
Pacific, the silver question cut large
figure.
But there is one cause for the great po
litical revolution greater than all Others
combined. 1t was not personal dislike o.
President Harrison; it was not any
charge against his administration ofpub
lie affairs, for that has been perfectly
clean. 1t was not the tariff, for in the
region Of protected" industries the re-
publicans are confronted by the most
significant losses. It was not the Alh
ance movement altogether, for, in Iowa
republicans regained the state; they
largely increased their vote in NebraskG
over 1890; and in Kansas they nearly
overcame the $4,000 opposition majority
Of two years ago. But there has been 6
large and general aggregate loss to the
republicans from the relative vote ol
1883. 1t was a combination Of dissatis-
faction rounded up in one real cause
distrust of the professions of the repub
licans.
That distrust had become deep seated
and general. There was reason for it
too. The party Of Abraham Lincoln hao
become the party Of the Platts, Quays
and Depews. It's promises have been
trifed with in the house Of its friends
It promised revision of the tariff and
made the revision odious to both pro-
ducer and consumer by making new in
dustrieS its particular pets. It was 80
framed as to leave it open to the suspi
cion that its real heart was more in the
interest of capital than Of labor. Mr.
Blaine saw the error and sought to nul.
lily it by reciprocity features. We be-
lieve that America has been vastly
benefited by the doctrine of protection,
but the doctrine of protection for the
sake Of protection was not the doctrine Of
the republican party of Lincoln, Grant
or Garfield. Under existing conditions
there has grown up in the United States
q state of affairs akin to those in Eng.
land. There are the very rich, the mid
die classes and the very poor.
Something is the matter. The people
know that sure enough and appreciate II
strongly. The great bulk OF the owners
OF three-fourths Of all the wealth on this
continent live north of the Potomac and
east of the Appalachian range. 1t is NOT

edge, pluck, age or geographical position

never desert their party on account or It's
broken promises. II they did there
would be no democratic party to-day.
Republicans are independent and leave
in herds when they distrust the policy OF
leaders of their party. The result shows
that.
Reform or revolutionl Which Ehall it
be? There has never been time in the
history of the world when SO many peo-
pie were giving patient, thoughtful study
to financial questions as at the present
moment. Something is vitally wrong
and the people know it. The people
know they are sick. They think they
know what ails them. They are seeking
the remedy. Affairs are rapidly assum-
ing condition when it will be the strug-
gle between organized capital and organ
lied citizens. Trusts and combines
govern the country. They elect con-
grees, make and unmake laws, are
intrenched IN courts and dictate party
platforms. The struggle is bound to
come. Resolutions cannot prevent it.
Party promises cannot stay its course.
There must be prompt, absolute reform
in financial affairs or revolution in par
ties. The people know that policy
which makes combines rich and individ-
uals poor is radically wrong. Dollars
combine to double their value. The peo-
pie are combining to save their own. The
issue Is here. 1t must be met To at
tempt to evade it is abject folly. To re-
fuse to listen to it's demands is to invite
disaster. To make the fight in the inter
est Of the organized capital against the
organized citizens means revolution! To
say that the ground-swell is all caused
by demagogues and shysters is to initiate
the imbecility Of George the Third, who
regarded Washington as rebel, Han
cock as a demsgogue and Patrick Henry
as political sdventurer. There are
many grains OF golden truth hidden in
the trainloads of buncombe offered by
the Populist movement. To disregard
those truths is both unwise and unpatri-
otic, and swings wide open the gateway
to chaos.
When the Armours can fix the price Of
every hog and steer grown on Kansas
prairies, it is time to demand a halt
When the banks of Boston and New York
can in one hour close every bank in
twenty-hv states and cause the loss of
hard learned millions in the interior cities
and towns, is 1T any wonder there was
general distrustH When ring Of soul.
less grain gamblers in Chicago and New
York can dictate the price Of the cereals
Of all the west, and a United States sena-
tor can touch button and raise the
price Of coal oil 80 per cent; when the
coal kings in Pennsylvania can say
whether you shall pay S6 or SO a ton
for anthracite, is it any wonder there is
revolutionY And the tariff had nothing
to do with it.
The real wonder is that the democratic
party-the party of persistent obstruc-
tion, the party Of constant and continued
political retrogressions, should receive
the benefit Of the awakening. This is
great country with varied interests and
needs. The question Of labor and capital
confronts MS. 1t is grave and potential.
It brooks no delay. 1t blames the party

The Old Reliable Wagon Maker.
A New Scheme.

In the line of swindling there is a
new and very attractive scheme be,
ing played bva firm known, on its cir
culars, as the Detroit, New York and
New Orleans Lottery Company, with
headquarters IN Detroit. A young man
in this city recently received a commu-
nication from the alleged firm in which
was inclosed thirty lotterytickets, close
ly resembling those sent out by the
Louisiana lottery. The proposition
was for him to sell the tickets at one
dollar each and remit, or show his good
faith in the scheme by blying them
outright. In either event he was to
receive from the company, as soon as
the cash was forwarded, check for
81, 500. Here a condition was inserted.
He was to wait until after the next
lottery drawing and then circulate
the report and allow it to be printed
that he had drawn ST 500. Then he
was obliged to return the check and
he would receive by return express ST.
600 ia good cash. There are doubtless
many who will bite at this tempting
bait. 1t has the advantage over the
"green goods snap" in that it only re-
quires thirty dollars to get dumped and
filled full of glorious experience.-East

Children and the State.

Children require special legal protection.
In multitudes of cases'they need to be pro-
tected from their parents, to whom they
do not wholly belong. They have rights
of their own-a right to proper care and
good treatment, to education and adequate
training.
These rights of children impose on their
parents corresponding obligations. Such
obligations are violated when children are
made street beggars; when they are shut
up in factories, to the stunting of both
physical and mental growth; when they
are surrounded by ruinous home infu-
ences; when, for any purpose, they are de-
prived of instruction, or when their parents
use them in any way for their own sole
benefit.
The state also has rights in the children.
They are it's only hope, it's future support,
defense and glory. In them are possibili-
ties Of future scholarship, craftsmanship,
generalship and invaluable serviceof every
kind. What loss to our land had the
parents of George Washington, Abraham
Lincoln, General Grant or Clara Barton
blighted the possibilities of their offspring!
What loss to England and the world had
the possibilities in Florence Nightingale
been thus blightedi
1t may not always be easy to say how
the state shall best protect the rights of
the child and its own rights in the child,
but of its obligations in the case there can
be no doubt.
1t recognizes them in part by demanding
that every child shall be allowed to attend
school up to o certain age. Hence, also,
its laws respecting child labor and parental
cruelty. Under certain circumstances, in
deed, it does not hesitate to take the child
from its parents and put it in charge OF
other persons, better qualified guardians.
