GETTING DOWN EASY.

1t is somewhat comical to note the
comments of the Democratic press on
the position assumed by Senator
Hill, of New York, in regard to secur-
ing a vote in the senate. Hill has come
out with a fiat endorsement of the
policy pursued by the Republicans in
the house of the 5lst congress. under
the guidance Of Thos. B. Reed. The
leading Democratic papers, in COM
mon with everyone else, want a vote
in the senate, and the method advO-
Gated by Senator Hill is about the
only practical way by which it can be
reached, therefore they are obliged to
endorse the position the New York
senator has taken, thus indirectly en-
dorsing Reed, whom they have hereto
fore abused. The comlcal side OF the
situation is revealed when they
try to explain that in no way does
the course which Mr.. Hill would pur-
sue, resemble the course which Tom
Reed, as speaker of the house follow
ed. The St. Paul Globe has been max
ing a labored effort TO show that
there is no comparison between athe
two: that "Reedism" was the count
ing of a quorum if the members 'were
not present, a thing which was never
done, while Mr.. Hill would count a
quorum only when the required num-
Ter were in their seats but, declined
to vote. But then Democracy must
fix a feathered place in which to fall.
There is no greater trimmer In pc
litical life today than David b. Hill.
He never gets down on any side OF
public question until he finds out. If
possible, the trend Of public opinion.
Perfectly INSCRIPTIONS, he cares not
by what methods he carries his his
ends. and would steal a state legisla-
ture for that purpose with as much
grace as he would eat a dinner For
weeks he has quietly occupied his seat
in the senate and observed the shap-
ing of public opinion upon the mat
ter Of a vote in the senate. And
when he noted the growing demand
for some action of the Reed style, he
opened his mouth and spoke, and not
before.
While the general public long ago
sized up the New York politician and

If senatorial courtesy is what is de-
laying a vote on the repeal bill, it
might be good thing if the senate
would get rid of little of it.

If Senator Hill succeeds in getting
vote in the senate on the repeal bill,
it will be one act of his that will be
cordially endorsed by the public.

HIGH L1cENsE-To be sure this mon
ey comes out of the peoples pockets,
but men will drink you know; and as
long as they will the city might as
well have part of the benefits. That
is what the devil whispers to his dupes.
If the saloon keeper happens to be
new in the business,he may ask, "Can
l make enough money to pay such IL
cense?" Then the devil, as he holds
the back door open wide, says, "Of
course you can. You can afford to
pay even a much higher license than
this; human souls are worth money
Get them for Is cents apiece if you
can, but get them, even if you have to
bid quarter for them. The fires
have got to be- kept up" Thus en-
couraged, the victim pays his cash,
enriches the city treasury, and gets
his privilege to ruin souls, wholesale
or retail.

ELAINE's POLITICAL DISCUSSION

The readers Of the GAZETTE WI.
have read that able epitome of Amer
lean History, Twenty Years of Con-
gress,' must have felt regret that the
scope Of the work did not include any
of the addresses or diplomatic CORE
spondence Of Mr.. Blaine himself. Ip
an active political career lasting near
ly forty years, Mr.. Blaine had occa
sion to discuss every important nation
al issue, and it may be claimed tina.
his statements of these issues before
popular audiences and in the halls of
congress were even more luminous
than his published literary work above
referred to.
What James G.. Blaine had to say
about the issues leading to the civil
war, and growing out of it; about pa
per money and gold and silver coin
age, the taxation of q. S. bonds, trade
with South American Irish home rale,
American ship-building, Chinese i'm
migration, ETC., is Of rare educational
value to generation that has grown
up since 1860. The authorized compi-
lation of these discussions and ad-
dresses recently issued by Mr.. Blalne's
publishers, numbering more than for
Aty, fills popular want, and this ac-
counts for the large sale it is having
in the east. The agency for this work,
and for Gail Hamilton's admirable BIZ
ography of Mr.. Blaine, in Redwood
county, has been secured by Mr.. Jas.
Aiken, who will begin canvass of
the county soon.

BURNED TO DEATH.
SIX Men Lose Their Lives In Tenement
House Fire.


House Fire.
BURLINGTON, To-. April 30.-Six lives
were lost in fire in tenement house
at 865 jefferson street, at o'clock this
morning. When the firemen arrived it
was learned that several of the inmates
OF the house were still in the rooms, but
the rapidity with which the flames
spread rendered futile every effort to
save them. When the FIRE had been
subdued and the workmen could gain
an entrance to the building sickening
sight met their eyes. SIX blackened
corpses were found in the upper rooms,
where they had been caught like rats
in a trap. The names of the victims
are:
+. =. SCHuMAN
MICHAEL HINES. -
MICHAEL LEE.
JOHN MORGAN.
CHARLIE, a boilermaker known only
by his first name.
JOSEPH N. SwINDLER.
The lodging house was kept by Mr..
.Judson, and was patronized by the
poorer class of laborers and mechanics.
The fire started shortly after o'clock
in the room of q servant girl named
Maggie Bailey, who tells singular
story. She saws some one raped IN
her door and mans voice called he to
get up, as it was time to get breakfa. t.
She heard match struck in the hall
and directly after sheet of fire burst
under her door and ran across the floor
as If following a stream of oil. She +; n
upstairs to wake Mrs. Judson, the wife
of the proprietor, and the fire spread sc
rapidly that both women had to jump
from a window they were not seri-
ously hurt. The police are inyestiyat-
ing the matter.

Of other matters, there was long
discussion of the location of the secre-
tary's office. whether it should be in
Chicago or in Minneapolis, Col. c. Nee
Reeve desiring it to be maintained in
Minneapolis, and such was the decision.
