BEING in control of all the depart
 ments of the government for the first
 time since 1861 the democratic party
 will be justly held responsible for
 the good or bad laws enacted by con
 gress, and it will be particularly
 held accountable for any failure to
 repeal those laws which were enact
 ed by the republican party and
 have been especially obnoxious and
 burdensome to a large majority of
 the people. In it's anxiety and eag- erness to have these burdens remov- ed the democracy through its press,
 platforms and from the stump have
 promised relief for almost every i'll
 that has afflicted the people, and in
 the morning of it's success, when joy and hope exist among the victors with just pride they feel that by their ballots they have registered that verdict which must sweep from power permanently those who trifled with and abused the rights of the people. Therefore it should be re- membered by the rank and file that they have not yet righted the wrongs of these noxious laws, but have only advanced in that direction by electing democratic president, congress and senate, who now hold the power and must be depended up on to carry out the promises of de mocracy by the enactment of whole some legislation. That President Cleveland feels the weight of the re- sponsibility resting upon him and congress in this matter is fully shown in his inaugural address, and it is to be hoped that he will be able to carry out the full text of his ideas therein expressed, which are sub stantially the doctrine of the demo cratic platform on which he was elected, but we trust the people will give him and congress fair chance and not become impatient in a few because the great reforms are not yet realized, for it should be remembered the republican party by its acts has built up a strong, cen tralized organization around every branch of the law, the real benefi- ciaries of which are the monopolies 1 of the country strongly entrenehed | in power. Consequently it should l be remembered that reforms come slowly, and that huge mountains cannot be removed in day, but that patience, work and perseverance will in time accomplish all things and bring full fruition of every demo ;ratic hope.

HE selection of Hon. Josiah Quincy of Massachusetts to be First Assistant Secretary of State, has tended to assuage the criticism of those democrats who resented the selection of Judge Gresham. Mir Quincy is one of those democrats who Is known to be ''for the boys in the trenches" He was chairman ol the literary bureau of the national committee, and all the country knows wha. effective and intelligent work he did. Democrats from every section are delighted over the ap- pointment for no man is better equipped for that responsible posi- tion.

TIE Cherokee Strip, about which so much has been said in connection with it's opening to settlement some time this year, is not part of the Cherokee nation. 1t is strip of ground lying along the southern border of Kansas The Cherokee In. dians never had any right to occupy it. When they were settled in their present abode they were merely giv- en the right of way across the strip to and from the bunting grounds further west in what is now Cobra do. Those hunting grounds having been settled and thus ceased to ex- ist il is doubtful if tue Cherokees have any rights whatever in the Strip.

The Circulation.

The Official treasury statement pub
lished in the papers yesterday shows that
the nations circulation on the LIST of Nav
was S23.97 per capita. The Populists and
other theorists claim that the circulation
per capita is not enough. But when we
add TO the above statement that on the
1st of February. 1860. the circulation in the
United States was only $685. per capita
and this at "a time when the South was re-
puted to be the wealthiest country in the
world-wo find that there are factors in
the circulation problem which have been
omitted IN the calculations of the clam
orers for a more abundant currency.
II must be recolected. too that in 1860 all
the slaves represented property, which Is
to be taken into the account when we try
10 estimate how much currency per capita
our country needs. Three millions of
slaves averaging $1,000 each, or $780,
600 of slaves averaging $500 each would
represent 3, 200, 000, 900.
