Coward, or-What?

The Democratic party has a diem
ma before it from which there is no
escape. If the Democratic press and
orators have told the truth, then it
is the obvious duty Of the party to
rescue the country from the evils in
which Democrats say the nation has
been plunged under Republican Iule.
To shirk such an obvious duty would
be cowardicc baseT than that OF "a
runaway from the field OF battle.
Assuming that the men who made
gross charges against the Republican
party are not set of knaves, then it
is TO lie presumed that they believed
what they said TO be true. If they
believed il to be true, they would BE-
guilty Of despicable trcachery not
TO right the wrongs they allegc To
exist.
The Republican party turns over
the country, rs it not only believes
but knows, happy, prosperous, and
fourishing. From the 4th OF March
next the Democrats will be in absO-
lutte control. For any changes for
the worse that party will be responsi-
BILE. The Democracy has declared
its ability to make changes for the
better. Let it try, or else confess
that tho late election was carried by
fraud, bunco, and falsehoCd unc-
Qualcd even in the annals Of Demo-
cratic campaigning.

Call That Extra Session.

The Democratic leaders are already
in quandary. They have appealed
to the passions Of the ignorant and
have won a victory far beyond their
own expectations and they are not
happy. What they wanted was not
tariff reform, nor free trade, ncr wild
cat money, but Office. They had
hoped that the Senate would have re-
manned Republican, in which case they
could have proposed the most radical
measures to please the mass Of the
party, and these being promptly
squelched by the Senate, they could
have turned to the country and have
exclaimed: There, you see it is not
our fault. We did our best"
Now, however, the road is clear be-
fore them and they must act, and
they are already at skies and scvens
rs TO how they shall act. The party,
led by the Southern Bridgdiers, clam
ors loudly for an extra session in or
der, as their leader, Henry Waiter
son, said, ito uproot and rip up all
vestigc OF protection with every cir
cumstances Of infamy." The other
party wants TO go slow, to be careful
and conservative, and TO do nothing
until the next Congress meets in De-
cember, 1893. Now, without regard
TO politics CT partisanship what is
best for the country?
Surely to know what the definite
purpose OF the Democratic party is
with regard TO the tariff.
If the Democrats do not touch the
tariff till the next Congress conveneS
it will be late in the spring OF 1894
before they can pass any bill. This
means nearly two years Of uncertainty
for the business world, and that
means an absolute stoppage OF all
enterprise. No man will buy more
than his immediate needs. No man
will start factory, order new ma
chinery or take the slightest business
risk. No bank will dare continue
giving accommodation TO such Of its
customers as are manufacturers. No
importer will dare order goods ahead
except on actual orders from the
most responsible firms. A cOnt'ac-
ton of the volume of business done
will take place such as this country
has never seen before.
IL the Democrats wish TO avoid
preciptating an industrial panic
within nine months let them call an
extra session and let the country, the
manufacturers and importers know
exactly what they have 10 expect.
Call that extra session.

RECIPROCITY depends ON Protection.

1t is none too soon for Americans
TO understand that the repeal Of the
Mckinley law will at once have the
effect of checking the growth Of our
foreign commerce where il is growing
most, and where it has the best
chance Of continuing TO grow. The
reason Of this is obvious. The value
of reciprocity arrangement with
any given nation, Brazil, for instance,
depends upon the advantage which is
given TO that nation over other ma
tions with which we protect our
markets. Reciprocity is made effect
i've only by protection.
Those free traders who profess to
wish to build up our foreign com
nerce by pulling down our domestic
commerce will not deceive any level

conservative business men of the
country will soon be confronted.

FOR A NATIONAL QUARANTINE.
Recommendations to BE Made by Surgeon
General Wyman.


Surgeon General Wyman, Of the Ma
rine Hospital service, in whose hands
Lave been placed all the measures for
suppression OF cholera, said that his an
nual report to the Secretary of the
Treasury would strongly recommend
that the matter OF guarantees be placed
under national control. He will sug-
gest that there be established either a
national quarantine or Bureau Of
Health, whose duties will lie specifically
confined to meeting just such emergen-
cies as have been presented by the re-
cent cholera scare.
The report will follow closely the
recommendation of the Quarantine Com
mittee, made up of lea1ing physicians
OF the country, appointed last fall at
the meeting OF the National Medical
congress. These gentlemen have
visited the various ports Of entry from
Maine to New Orleans, and they say
the quarantine system ut New Orleans
is the one which should be adopted as a
national measure. 1t provides for a
thorough fumigation, and is so effective
that New Orleans has not seen yellow
fever in seven years, whereas the city
used to have visit every summer prior
to the establishment OF this system.

Belsarius is true symbol of the Re-
publican party. The cartoonist should
use his picture instead of the elc-
plant.
The Republican party commenced its
career by crushing out rebellion
aga nst its sCvereign-the people. It
released and set free j, 0G0, 000 prisoners

labocers and mechanics OF the country.

stood like a wall between the workmen
OF the Uni ed States and the almost
pauper labor of the over crowde | coun-
tries of England. 1t has raised up and
organized new fields Of industry for the
people. 1t has given such prosperity to
the country as no other nation in all
history can show. It has compelled
the respect Of all foreign countries.
And now, while engaged in completing
the browning work OF tablishing tho
commercial independence, its sovereign
the people-has stripped it of all
power, and Cast it out as unworthy OF
confidence as a rC ward Tor its heroism
and fidelity.
The sovereign people have chosen that
political giant, that intellectual microbe,
that malignant defamer of the soldier.

The First scream Of the Wildcat.

%
All through the recent campaign
there was IA studied effort on the
part Of the Democracy to cover up
and brush aside as an unmeaning bit
OF platform buncombe the State
bank money plank. The people
would seem to have seen in the wild
cat, SO conspicuously displayed by
the Republican press and speakers
only spook. The apparition was
treated as merely the ghost Of wild
beast slain by the war, as extinct
and harmless as the vcritable Wild
cat of the animal kingdom, In
pioneer days this and other wild
beasts prowled about the cabin and
roamed the woods and prairies, caus-
ing great deal Of apprehension and
some loss OF life, but they have dis
appeared no more to return forever
Those, however, who thought that
the wildcat Of State bank bills be-
longed TO the past only would do well
to note this fact: One Of the first
acts Of the first Legislature TO meet
after the election was to take steps
toward the carrying out Of the pledge
to repeal the 10 per cent. prOhibitOry
tax, which would be the uncaging Of
the wildcat. In the Georgia LcgiS-
laturc, just after the election, one Of
the members promptly introduced a
resolution calling upon the DEM
ocracy to fulfill that repeal pledge.
Every Populist voted against it, but
it passed both houses. a Washing
ton dispatch says, in commenting
upon this fact:
There are probab V r. dozen bills which
have been introduced in the present
Congress for the repeal of the 10 per
cent. tax on State banks. Senators
Daniel, of Virginia, and Vance, of
North Carolina, have been prominent
in advocating these measures. At the
coming sessions some OF these bills will
be pressed, not with the idea that they
can become laws now, but with the
purpose of Iaving the way for wildcat
currency when the Democrats are in
control Of all the branches of the gov
eminent.
1t will be found that the move
ment is not confined to the South.
There is a dangerously large class Of
bankers who long for chance to
make money by issuing a quantity Of
bills in accordance with some Of the
many State laws still in existence
under which the old ante-war bills
were issued. According TO General
Viewers uncOntradicted charge, u
committee Of New York City bankers
waited on Mr. Cleveland a short time
before the election in Endorsement of
that plank, and to assure themselves
that he would, if elected, sign re-
peal bill. They knew, without wait
ing on him, that President Harrison
would allow his right hand to be cut
off before he would sign any such bill.
The only hope Of protection from
such Il bill is in the Peoples party
element in the Senate, and how much
reliance can be placed upon that bull
walk is an open question. Inter
