While he has less national reputation
than some others who have been named,

confidence in him and to justify his Sc

FUSION.

The results of fusion at the West and
Northwest will have tendency to i'm
prove Mr.. CleveIand's chances at the
expense of MIR. Harrison's. 1t is quite
possible that no state will be removed
from the Republican column by any of
the plans now being formulated by the
Democrats and ''Populists" of Kansas
and the adjacent region, but whatever
effect these schemes may have will be
favorable to the Democrats rather than
to their administration opponents. And
this is exactly what the Alliance and
Peoples party movement has foreshad-
owed from the Start.-PrOvidence Jour

How is this? The Peoples party,
which was organized to reform abuses
and put as much money as possible in

THE OPEN DOOR,"

1t is always pleasure to read the edi-
torials of our esteemed contemporary
down the street, if it be only for the oc-
casiOnal surprises it gives US when it
gives its thought an outing and gets
away from the ordinary partisan rut in
which it chooses to travel. The frank
ness of its utteranceS then, the entire
abandonment to its better impulses, the
charming candor with which it states
facts without the least consideration of
their partisan effects, compel US to be one
Of the constant readers" of that paper.
OF course, this has its drawbacks, for it
necessitates going over mass of pro-
voking twaddle when it gets back from
its mental outing and puts on the party
harness again. But, like everything else
in life, even reading the Pioneer
Press has its compensatlonS. A
recent editorial under the above
caption is one of these instances.
1t finds in the Homestead affair one
lesson which it is surprised that the
workingmen of the country have not
long ago learned. This is the fact of
the unrestrained competition of labor.
The "severe competition in the labor
market breaks every strike in time"
What matters it that we have pied up
duties to keep out the product. if the
producer himself may come in freely
and set up business under the very nose
Of the man who has been protected
against him? How incomplete must be
that sort of protection which leaves
free ingress to the labor of other lands
when every circumstance is such as to
tempt it hither and use it as a factor in
reducing the wages of labor with us.
This is the breach in the wall which
the workingman, with singular faulty,
has neglected to guard" This is what
it calls the "open door," and this door
1t advises the workingmen to shut with
a .'judicious restriction of immigra-
tion."
These are singular statements from
such source. even if they are not
novel. That the employers have had
and fully utilized free trade in labor is
fact which Democrats have urged for
years. and of which Pig Iron KELLEY
boosted in congress in the early seven
ties. For years nearly every Northern
state has had its bureau of immigration,
with its foreign agents soliciting sup
plies of competing labor. Railroad and
steamship companies have used all
their arts in inducing the rush of immi-
grants through that 'open door," More
than that, the Republican party has adj
vertised to the world that it was pursu-
ing fiscal policy whose sole purpose
IL
try than anywhere in the world. On
the one hand, they have decreased the
opportunities for labor. and on the other
invited labor to come; and now, when
the inevitable glut comes, this leading
organ of that party can find no other
remedy than to continue the restriction
on opportunities and impose them on
the labor supply.

FOR PRESIDENT
GROVER CLEVELAND.
FOR VICE PRESIDENT,
ADLAI E. STEVENSON.
THEN AND NOW.

In every presidential campaign since
the war one of the most powerful argu
ments that Republicans have used to
retain their voterS-and that is all they
desired or needed-waS the terrible re-
suits that were sure to follow Demo-
cratic success. How their papers and
speeches teemed with the dire forebod-
iDgS. The Confederacy would be again
in the saddle. We would be precipi-
tated again into a civil war. The ne
grOeS would be returned to slavery.
The old Shareholders would be paid for
their slaves from the federal treasury.
The hungry and famished horde of
Democrats would be turned into the
treasury to loot it. Disruption, dis
union, bankruptcy, business prostra-
ton, reputation of the national debt
were few of the results sure to come
with Democratic ascendency.
We had four years of a Democratic
administration at last. Its advent was
regarded with profound alarm among
the men who had been so simple as TO
believe the silly stories. Thousands
trembled with their fear Of the fatal
consequences 10 their country. THIS
feeling was not confined to the grossly
ignorant Business men announced
their purpose to arrange their affairs so
as not to be hurt by the impending cata-
Glysm. Tue four years of Mr.. CLEvE-
lands rule dispelled all this. 1t did far
more. Republicans now find that in
their efforts to alarm people with pre-
dictiOnS Of disaster.to follow Democratic
victory they are meeting the same de-
served fate of the foolish boy who had
cried wolf when there was none, no
one gives them the least heed. The
people have learned how groundless
and silly was the cry that over half of
the voters of the country were bent on
running themselves by running the
country.
Another effect is the greater atten-
ton that the policy Of tax reform gets
from it. If a Democratic administra-
ton was after all very good, its policy
may also be a good one and worth try
ing. The present condition leads men
to think that something is wrong in the
national policy; that protection has not
redeemed its promises, and that it may
he as well TO try the Democratic expert
ment. A trial can't hurt much, and,
anyway. it will be easy enough to go
back if it should hurt. These consider
atiOns Will have determining effect in
this campaign. and for it we are in
debted to the administration of Mr..

MIR. BAILEY. OF TEXAS,

self extensively talked about. More
particularly described. he is Mr.. Jo-
SEPH w. BAILEY, representative from
the Fifth congressional district of
Texas. He is the youngest member of
the house. and has been accused of
being the best-looking. But his youth
and good looks are by no means Mr..
BAILEY'S most important Characters
tics. Brains are the chief factor in the
success he is achleying-a success al
ready brilliant, and destined, appar-
emily, to attain remarkable proportions.
When, early in the present session, Mr.
BAILEY made his maiden speech in the
house, he scored vertable triumph.
1t was a constitutional argument, eIo-
quent, logical and evldencing distin-
guished scholarly attainments. Since
its delivery MIR. BAILEY has had no diff
ficulty in commanding the respectful at
tention of the house. For the reform
which he has adopted as his especial
protege, however, Nix. BAILEY secures
the Endorsement of the country at large
much more easily than he can win the
house. 1t is a reform which personally
concerns our national legislators and
strikes at their pet privilege of drawing
fat pay for the service of being absent
and out of the way. Mr.. BAILEY
doesn't appreciate this negative service
at the value put upon it by usage. He
doesn't believe that congressman at
home, building fences or practicing his
profession. is benefiting his country to
the extent contemplated by the act fix
ing his salary. He therefore proposes
that members of the house shall draw
pay only for the time they are in actual
attendance at its sessions, and he sets
the example by having himself
locked for every days absence.
He doesn't need to agitate any BAILEY
reform bill, for he is already backed up
by section 40 of the Revised Statutes,
which expressly provides that each
member of the house shall be locked
for absence except in casa af siAj1ss-~

that familiarity breeds contempt-law-

esty. The fact of his courageous ad-

with the fact that he is of the rising

convinced that Mr.. Cleveland is stronger

expressed to the Tammany committee
OF twenty-four.
Here are his plans as set forth at the
same time:
II want the district leaders to talk to
the district captains and the men upon
whom you can depend. Urge them to
work harder this year than they have
ever done. If there is any grumbling
against Cleveland stop 1t. Heal up any
little disaffection that may exist in your
district and all pull together. We shall
and will give the state of New York to
Mr.. Cleveland"
This is Tammany's attitude. If any
body has been betting on the sirens 9Th
of Tammany disaffecton it is high time

CONNIE is A COUNTESS.

The marriage of the celebrated Con-
ME GILCHRTST. concert hall prima
danseuse. to the hitherto obscure and
unknown Earl of Orkney. has kept
the transatlantic cable thrilling with
racy intelligence the past week. En-
giish society has been Stirred to its
depths, which, however, is not very
deep. That CONNIE should elect to
thus lift common. ordinary earl into
blazing prominence as her hearts de-
sire was indeed surprising, in view of
the fact that marquises, and even dukes
were candidates for her affections. 1t
must have been genuine love match
one of those touchingly tender affairs
which give rise to the reflection that
marriages are manufactured in ce-
lestial workshop.
Still it must be remembered that neith-
er the marQuises nor the dukes nor any of
them except this young ORKNEY fellow
included matrimony in the programme.
They were all devoted to CONNIE, but
they were afraid they could never make
her happy i'll the conjugal relation.
ORKNEY alone was not afraid. He had
the parson ready and the church deco
rated, and perhaps these considerations
Influenced CONNIE to some extent in
her preference, although she had never
before paid much heed to these minor
details.
But however much we must admire
the unselfish sincerity of Comics pas
sion, her judgment can not be COM
mended. With her undeniable talent
she might eventually have succeeded i'll
capturing real man for a husband. in
stead of only all earl. Candidly speak
ing, CONNIE has contracted mesalli-
ance.
