Premature Criticism.

Republican papers have never falling
fountain ready when they are deficient in
other sources for editorial subjects. 1t is
the announcement, III advance, of Presi-
dent CLEvELAND's policy in regard to
this, that and the other, and the difficult
ties that are to arise between him and
The Senate or between MIN and his party.
While number OF them are trying to
prejudice the country by the assertion
that the President is opposed to the In
ternational Monetary Conference, the
telegraph brings word that he is taking
steps to recouvene land has named the
gentlemen who are to take the places of
the commissioners who are reported to
have resigned their positions
Another announcement is that no in
cumbent OF an Office under CLEvELANp's
former administration is to receive an ap-
pointmcnt during the present administra
ton. But right on the top OF that comes
word that reappointments are likely to be
made, though not to the same positions
which the applicants held before.
For awhile the country was led to be-
lieve that the President had such an an
tipathy to newspaper men that ssno edi-
tor need apply" for an Office. But among
the first official appointments was that OF
prominent journalist.
The Republican press has not yet given
up commenting on the conflict to come
between the President and the Senate
over the question OF patronage, he ig-
noring the custom of senatorial courtesy
and that body refusing to confirm his ap-
pointments. And yet the press dis
patches show that all his appointments,
so far, have been confirmed, even to that
of MAXWELL as fourth assistant post
master general, who was said to
have been nominated as slap at HILL.
and over whom there was to be a most
fight. He seems to have re-
ceiyed the support Of both HILL and
MURPHY.
The difficulties between CLEVELAND
and his party are all in the blearesl eye Of
strife-breeders. So in regard
to his tautocracy'' and the resistance to
it OF the Democratic leaders. The Presi-
dent knows how to maintain his own in
withous encroaching upon the
rights of Others It viii be found, to the
confusion Of his enemies, that there is no

Encouraging to Silver Men.

| Senator JONES, one of the representa-
tiyes OF this country at the Brussels con-
ference, feels sanguine over the prospects
Tor silver. He is an authority on BIZ
metallism and his utterances have weight
everywhere. He is reported as saying
that, ga feeling in England in favor OF
bimetallism is slowly but surely gaining
ground, as was shown by the last vote in
the House of Commons when the mono
metallists escaped defeat by less than fifty
Yotes.'
That appears encouraging to us as we'll
as to the Senator. But our morning
contemporary views it in another light,
and seeing that it poses as the great silver
authority Of the Pacific slope, we will
quote its comment on the Senator's say
ings:
1.-The discouraging feature OF that is,
that many men who are good silver men,
and among these may be included the
whole Irish contingent in the Commons,
rather than antagonize Gladstone either
voted against their convictions or lodged
the vote altogether
That would be singular reasoning for
anybody else but our contemporary. If
these men who voted against their con-
victions, or lodged the vote altogether so
as not to displease GLADSTONE, had voted
according to their convictions, the ma
iority OF fifty would have been cut down
to such small figure, if it had not been
turned into minority, as would have
been the nearest thing to q victory for
silver. And when the Irish question is
settled and they need not placate GLAD
STONE, the probability is that they will
vote according to their convictions, and
thus the feature which is 'discouraging''
to our critical contemporary will be en-
couraging to all clear-eyed advocates OF
bimetallism.
1t is discouraging, perhaps, to the NOR
alist to see men, for any purpose, vote on
an important public question contrary to
their convictions Of right. But in this
aieSeu instance 1t Is the very reverse Of
discouraging as to the silver issue. And
it is common custom in legislative
bodies, when matter viewed as of para
mount Importance is at stake, for the
supporters of measure to them of minor
consequence, to sink the lesser for the
time being so as to accomplish the success
Of the greater.
If England could be won over to the
necessity of lifting silver TO its proper
sphere as money metal, there would be
little or no difficulty in It's way In the
United States. Therefore anything that
gives promise Of a change OF sentiment in
this direction in Great Britain must be
encouraging to all sane friends OF silver.

conflict between him and his party and
that the majority OF the people of this
country viii be with him in his official
acts.
Meanwhile, suppose the prognosti-
Gators OF trouble change their tactics and
wait until there is something done which
they can criticize. At present they have
to resort to invention and tell of some
thing that is to be which does not happen.
But it is comforting to CLEvELAND's
admirers to know that his detractors have
nothing substantial to allege against

several months for refusing to pay off GER

supposed to be heavy property owners

only paupers will be elected hereafter,
and the bonds remain unpaid.

told OF the women VINO work twelve
