the Democracy and its principles. They
acted on all these assumptions. They
swept the service with brooms save
where the law gave immunity, or
local public sentiment did not favor
it. NepotiSm thrOye as never before.
In the house OF representatives this
spirit was rampant. The dangerously
narrow majority was widened by arbl-
trary unseatlng of Democrats until alb
solute control was assured. Rules for
cloture were adopted, and steering
committee with autocratic powers was
made master of ceremonies. Its speaker
found occasion to "thank God, congress
is not deiiberative body" The legis-
lation was of the same character. The
force bill passed the house, and was
only killed in the senate by a
deal with other interests. The Nc
KINLEY bill improved on the tariff Of
denominations" in redemption OF the
platform pledge. The surplus vanished,
not by the proper reduction of the taxes
that produced it. but by extrayagant ex-
penditureS, many of them made perma-
nent. The dependent pension bill, with
its shameless contradiction of permit
ting wealthy man to be- pensiOned as
dependent" was passed. The ''party
of honest money" endangered the sound
ness of all the currency by the SHER-
MAN silver-purch act.
There were four years OF revelry,
sobered but little by the congressional
defeats of 80. whose significance was
discounted. The end came as soon as
an indignant people could express their
will. The November sentence of dis
missal went into effect yesterday, and
Republicanism has gone out beyond any
hope of redemption save that which may
be held in the mistakes or lnisdeeds of
the "triumpbant Democracy"

Is IT NEEDED?

Naturally opinions will di fer as to
this, as to any other public measure; and
these opinions will have value precisely
as they are the result of Judgment or
impression or prejudice. Those hostile
to the building of a new capitol
belong, for the greater part, to
the latter class. Usually they know
nothing of the actual condition
of the present building; the needs of
the state, which have Outgrown it, its
original insufficieney and the defects of
construction which have made it a
menace to life and limb. Occasionally
they are of that class described by
HORACE GREELEY as ''men who. for
some inscrutable purpose, God permits
to edit country newspapers" little fell
lows who think to crafty local pride by
Spiteful jealousy of the cities. Others,
looking only at the aggregate sum con-
templated to be used in the construc-
ton, oppose it on the ground of ex-
penSe, without any examination of the
resources of the state or calculation of
the share of each taxpayer when dis
tributed.
But no person who has had occasion
to examine the building now used; to
see the demands that are made on it for
accommodation, and bow poorly they
are met, but favors the replacement of
the ill-arranged, incommodlous pile
with a structure which will meet the
present and future requirements of the
state. 1t is fact that the members
from the country districts, where the
opposition based on prejudice is the
strongest, after a short experience in
the building admit the need of better
and more suitable one, and the pro-
priety of the measure providing for one.
The present capitol is an emergency
affair. When the state house was burned
some ten years ago. the officers, courts
and legislature were temporarily housed
in the Newmarket hall until a now
house could be built. There was no
time for deliberation, for careful ex-
animation and selection of plans; and
when the building was determined ON,
it was rushed TO completion with haste
St. Paul daily globe., 1893-03-05
THE RESTORATION.

The Democracy has been restored to
power. Not, as in 1899, handicapped
with hostile senate determined to OBJ
struct the execution of the mandate of
the people, but with majority in both
houses and the executive. The mastery
is complete one. No obstacle. outside
of the party itself, lies i'll its path.
Four years ago it was swept out of
the footing it had gained with. extraor-
dinary force. The elections added to
the Republican strength in the senate;
gave it absolute mastery in the house,
and puta sympathetic chief in the White
house. 1t would have annihilated any
other party; crushed il and sent its
fragments to cohere with other Organi-
cations. Its effect was wonderful. 1t
only gave the party fresh courage; it
rose from the dust stronger for its fall.
1t took an advanced position on the one
great, central, determining question at
issue. 1t became bolder, more defiant,
more honest. 1t sent its trimmers to
the rear; ceased TO shiver when any one
shouted free trade. 1t discarded its
temporizing attitude toward protection,
and ayOwed its deadly hostility to it.
And the man who had put to risk his
own succession and his partv's control
by committing it to the espousal of
great cause; who had said, 'Come
defeat or come victory, this is
right, and L will do it,, this i'm
polite man, censured by the pol
iticlans of his party for his indiscretIon,
who led his party to a tremendous de-
feat, was actually stronger for that de-
feat; became at once the admitted
leader of his party, drew to the party
unnumbered thousands of the opposi-
tion. and led it again in the next great
quadrennial struggle to the most mag
nificent victory any political party ever
achieved. The annals of political strug-
giles do not contain its parallel.
With power comes responsibility.
L lHC DClnOCldCy Will hldAe Il grave mis-
take if they take their return as vote
of confidence of the people. 1t is only
vote of probation, won by the char
acter of the man who led the party;
won by the new earnestness and SIN
eerity which the party has professed;
probably as much by the latter
as the first. The first duty is to
prove the confidence merited. If
the pledges of the platform are
redeemed; if Offices are admin
istered as trusts, and not as perquisites;
if paternalism is discarded; if economy
replace extravaganza; if, in short, the
administration in all its branches is
simply and sincerely Democratic, the
party may look forward with confidence
to a long lease of power. If, on the
other hand, the protectionists, the trim
mers, the spoils element dominate con-
gress; if the tariff is handled gingerly,
if pledges go unredeemed, the party
may prepare for another and more
ignominious defeat, and more lasting
one next time. 1t will get it because it
will deserve It.
St. Paul daily globe., 1893-03-05
UNIQUE PATRIOTISM.

The mass gathering Saturday of the
Minnesota legislators 10 do honor to the
outgoing and incoming presidents
stands without precedent in the history
of the nation. 1t was unique and grand.
There was ring to the speeches which
emanated from the throatS of Demo
Gratis, Republicans and Populists alike,
which stirs up the warm blood of patri-
otism in every one who stops to realize
the meaning of the occasion. 1t was a
sublime evidence that party sentiment
sinks into insignifcance in comparison
with the national feelings that the love
of country rises far above all differ
ences of political opinion. The Repub-
lican and Populist expression of faith in
CLEVELAND was as warm as the Demo-
cratic, and the Democrats were not
sparing in their eulogies of the out
going executive. The resolution eX-
pressing it as the sentiment that eX-
presidents shall be made life members
of the United States senate was offered
by Democrat, and the amendment sug-
gesting that only President HARRISON
be made a senator at large was offered
by another Democrat. The resolution as
amended might have prevailed. had not
Republicans opposed. 1t was altogether
an expression of Ameiicanism that
makes one boil over with patriotism as
he thinks of it. We are entering upon
a new political era. Party strife should
and will continue, but the national
feeling will soon be paramount in
every nook of our broad land. The
party in power must be very bad if it
does not receive during its existence
the best wishes for success of all other
parties. Hail the day, and may it con-
tinue forever.
St. Paul daily globe., 1893-03-05
TO DIsINFECT HOUSES.

The movement on foot to disinfect
houses after contagious diseases should
receive the most liberal encouragement.
The startling showing OF the health de-
partment is sufficient warrant for this
feeling. Health Commissioner HOYT
shows that during the past five years
there have been five outbreaks of small
poX and only one death from it, while
during the same period there were 572
deaths from diphtheria and 139 from
scarlet fever. The smallpox cases were
all quarantined, and the houses
IN which the patients were taken
down thoroughly disinfected. Had the
same precautions been taken in the
cases of diphtheria and scarlet fever, it
is clear that the loss of life would have
been very little, if any greater, than that
from smallpox. The medical men as
sert that diphtheria is fully as danger
Gus to community as smallpox. 1t is
a more fatal disease, almost as conta-
giOuS in any form, and rather more so
in its worst form. DR.. HOYT has told
the common council that the city should
have a disinfecting plant. Milwau-
kee has portable plant. This is
taken from house to house where
contagious diseases have prevailed,
and everything inside thoroughly dealt
with. Toronto has stationary plant,
and the contents OF the houses are taken
to it. There has been appointed joint
committee of two members from each
body of the council to investigate and
report upon the matter. This COM
mittee will report at the Tuesday
evening meeting Of the board of
aldermen. The health commissioner
will urge the council to send commit
tee to Milwaukee, Toronto and the other
cities supplied with disinfecting plants.
This would be wise; since, if we are to
have plant, we should provide our
selves with the very best one in use.
The expense to the city of dealing
with the five outbreaks of smallpox was
but $1,000. Had all the cases of diph-
liberia and scarlet fever of the past five
years been smallpox instead. 'thIs city
would have spent" says DR.. HoYT, lat
a minimum calculation, something in
the nelghborhood of 100000 to stamp
out the disease" Everything was done
for the cases of diphtheria and scarlet
fever that could be done, except to quar-
antine and disinfect. Life is too pre-
cious to be frittered away at this alarm
ing rate, and If it can be saved by the
plan outlined the dearest interests of
humanity demand that we shall adopt
it, let the expense be what it may.
St. Paul daily globe., 1893-03-05
THE EXPENSE.

This is q veritable bugaboo. Fortu-
nately, the bill enables any man who
pays taxes to ascertain to cent what
his share of it will be. The annual tax
shall not exceed two-tenths of mill on
the dollar Of valuation. The average
assessed value of farms is about 50 an
acre. This would make the tax aver
age one and eight-tenths cents an
acre. Or, dropping the average,
any man can take his tax receipt,
giving the valuation at which he is as
sessed, and compute the tax levied for
the capitol building for himself. Even
the most parsimonious will be surprised
at the triviaIlty of the share of the bur
den he will bear. Iowa began the con-
struction of her splendid state house
when her valuation of assessable prop
erty was not two-thirds that of Mime
sota's today. and the cost of the build
ing was about that contemplated for our
state. The expense spook vanishes on
inspection.
St. Paul daily globe., 1893-03-05

Incompatible with good or safe con-
struction. The result Is that 1t has been
IN an incessant siege of repair and alter
alton. Floor joists have dry-rolted, and
whole sections of it have fallen without
warning. The ceiling of the hall OF
representatives settled and threatened
to fall, and is only kept in place by stay
rods. Offices are crowded; most or
them poorly lighted. The ventilation,
especially Of the senate and repre-
sentative halls. Is eXecrable, and the
cause of the frequent sickness OF the
members. The historical society, with
its priceless accumulations, IS badly
housed and crowded, and the state
library, continually growing, is without
needed space. The building reflects
credit on neither Its designer, its build.

THE INAUGURAL.

Yesterday, at noon, on the east front
of the federal capitol, the verdict OF
November was carried into execution,
and the direction of the policy of ma
tion of siXty-four millions of people was
formally surrendered into the hands of
the chief of the Democracy, GROVER
CLEVELAND. by BENJAMIN HARRISON,
the chieftain of RepublicaniSm. To
the great mass of people assembled
TO witness the ceremonies 1t had
many and different meanings. There
were doubtless Republicans who had
been impressed with the dismal fore
bodingS of the disaster to business and
finance which their papers and speak
erS warned them would follow Demo-
cratic ascendency. whose hearts were
filled with fear and apprehension.
Others of them saw in it the loss or
place and salaries, and looked into the
future with dread in their hearts. Others
among them, of the class of beneficiaries
of the fiscal policy of that party, saw in 1t
the removal from them of the sheltering
arm of protection and the deprivation of
the resultant profits.
In the triumphant Democracy which
formed, no doubt, the larger portion of
the assembled host, how many saw i'll it
anything more than the creation of
vacancies in the civil list for their per-
sonal good? To them it was the final
triumph of the army with banners; the
surrender to it of the wealthy city with
its plumber to be distributed among the
victors. How many OF them saw the
broader. greater significance which was
hidden by the ceremonial display? To
these it meant more than the loayes and
fishes; more than a scramble for the
spoils.
The history of the last six years was
focused on the east steps of the cap
itol. Beginning with that Dece mber
day of 1887 when GROVER CLEVELAND
sent to congress his message declaring
that the use of the government for the
enrichment of classes of the citizenry
must stop, the old, old struggle which
humanity has been waging ever since
it emerged from the thraldOm of the
middle ages has been renewed with in
creasing earnestness. 1t was the old fight
of the individual for greater liberty
against the aggressions of that ever
present element which would take lib
erty from the man and transmute it
into power in the government. The
ceremony meant that the people had
carried the outer works of the citadel
and obtained fOothold whence further
and greater advances might be made.
1t meant temporary rest for the
greater AMI more determined aud i'm
pOrtant assault.

THE DISMISsA1.

The Democrats may learn wisdom
from the fate of the Republicans. They
utterly mistook the significance of their
restoration in 1888. They conceived it
to be vote of license to do as they
would. They took it as vindication of
paternalism in government. They as
sumed that it was a verdict of final and
irrevocable dismissal by the country of
