MR HoULIHAH FOR COUNTY COMMISSION ER

The political complexion of the boards of county commissioners will undoubted- ly be changed as soon as Gov Morris takes his seat. It is proposed to replace the present incumbents, who are all re- publicans, by democrats, but also by men in whose integrity and ability the people can place the utmost confidence One of the candidates for the office of a commissioner is NJ. J. Houlihan, senator elect from the 18th district. Mr Houli- han, who possesses every needed qualifi~a cation for such position, needs no es- pecial eulogy from us. He is man of affairs, popular. conscientious, able and devoted altogether to the interests of the people he is chosen to represent. He is thoroughly eonversant with the wants and Leeds of Fairfield county aBd would make an excellent commissioner. Should MT Houlihan be nominated by Gov Nor ris for this position, there is no doubt whatever that the selection would com- mand the universal approval of the peo- pie of Fairfield county.-T MechanicsI Journal of South Norwalk

WHEAT at 32 cents, oats at cents
and slump of $l.15 per hundred
on pork in one day are not the evil
dences of prosperity the people are
looking for, but are just such as
might reasonably be expected. The
value of any given commodity will
not rise higher than the ability of
the people to buy. Every pound
and bushel of every commodity is
needed, and there would be ready
purchasers were there money with
which to purchase. The creators of
wealth are down; they cannot sell
the products of their labor at the
cost of production, and stagnation
prevails throughout the land. The
needy are growing more so, and in
creasing in number, without pros
pect of change for the better.

Mrs. ANNIE l.. DIGGs has been
down among the miners at Pittsburg
and vicinity, and she gives a true
report of the condition of things
there. Mrs. Diggs says the dis
patches that are published in the
the daily papers relative to the strike
are fabricatlons, and that the read
ers of those reports gain no knowl-
edge of the true condition of affairs.
She says the strikers are quiet and
orderly, and that, instead OF injur-
ing the property of the companies,
as reported, they seek to protect the
property. Neither have the strikers
threatened violence, but, on the
other hand, the armed pimps en-
ployed by the companies have used
all kinds Of means to provoke an
outbreak on the part OF the strikers.
The leader Of the brutal gang has
been heard to say, at various times,
that he would make plenty of wild
ows before the strike ends. 1t is
the Homestead trouble over again,
on smaller scale, so far: The
companies are to blame for the
trouble. They have brought on the
strike for the purpose OF breaking
down the laborer. Another thing
we wish to speak of is this: The
strikers are not lot of foreigners
"Huns," "Dagoes," ETC., as has
been reported-but they are citizens
of the United States, native-born or
naturalized. They should have the
sympathy and support of every true
American citizen.

The greatest mistake this people
ever made was to confer the veto
power upon any executive officer.
1t gives autocratic power. Grover
Cleveland's veto is equal to the
votes of two hundred and ninety
six senators and congressman. He
should, as should all other executive
officers, be divested of that power.
"In the multitude Of counsellors
there is safety" The people have
sent up majority of counsellors in
favor of measures for the removal of
burdens now resting upon them, but
Cleveland stands menacing them
with his threatened veto. Harrison
held it aloft during his administra-
ton in defiance of the will of the
people, and now the stuffed prophet
is demanding blood money for Wall
street. The dictator has but little
greater power. Curtall tit is
dangerous power.

GOLD MUST RULE.
SO SAYS GROVER CLEVELAND,
Western and Southern Dems..


Dictator Cleveland has issued his
message to the congress extraordi-
nary. 1t is short message, which
is easily summed up in these words:
Silver shall be demonetized Gold
must rule.
Before congress adjourns, the
gold-bug Democrats, assisted by the
gold.bug Republicans, will have
sounded the death-knell of the Dem
ocratic party.
Many a Democrat, since reading
the message, has declared, 81 will
never vote another Democratic tick
et-I'm done p In fact, the rank
and file of the Democratic party of
the North and South is composed of
advocates of free coinage. They
voted for Cleveland and the rest of
the Democratic ticket thinking that,
by 40 doing, they were voting for free
silver. They have said to the Pop.
ulists, "Come with US. The Demo
cratic party will give you the re-
forms you seek" Alas +! they are
disappointed. 1t will be necessary

SHALL THE PEOPLE OWN THE
RAILROADS, OR THE RAIL.
ROADS OWN THE PEOPLE?

ROADS OWN THE PEOPLE?
The United States government
donated $4,000, 900 acres of land to
our trans-continental railroad lines.
This land is supposed to be worth
$3.50, 900, 900. In addition to this,
the government loaned these roads
$64, 100000
Notwithstanding this unprece-
dented generosity, these subsidized
and petted lines refuse to pay inter-
est on what is due the government,
and have refused to do SO until
there has accumulated on the in
debtedness the vast sum of $780,
600, 900 of unpaid interest.
Why should the government dis
criminate in favor of railroads, and
let this vast sum belonging to the
people, and which should be in the
United States treasury to pay inter-
est-bearing bonded debts of the
country, remain in the Golfers of
these railroad companies is ques-
ton not to be solved by the applica-
ton of ordinary business rules.
Why not foreclose on these claims,
take possession of. the insolvent
roads, and run them in the interest
of the people
Here is a way to make govern
ment ownership of railroads not only
possible, but plain and easy The
people have right to demand their
dues, and if the demands are not
complied with, proceed to enforce
their claim.
Certain European nations own the
railroads of their domain, and trans
portation is reduced to minimum.
The difference between their rates
and those of corporations are saved
to the people, and might be here as
well.
No man or set of men should ever
be allowed to control the great COM
mercial highways of nation. All
the people should own them and op-
crate them for the equal benefit OF
all. 1t would doubtless make one
half difference in freight and pas
senger rates, thereby relieving the
West and South of burden that
saps the vitality of every industry,
and bears especially on the agricul-
tural productions of the land.

Own the Railroads,

The pressing need of the hour is
money enough to set in motion all
the wheels of industry, that all the
idle may be given employment at
remunerative wages. Under the
present depressed condition of trade,
dealing in money appears to be the
chief employment; at least, the
only one in which there is any gain,
and the scarcer it is, the greater the
gain. Shylock is gathering his har-
vest, and it is rich one.

Our esteemed Boston contemporary,
against sort of ewspaper-railroad
trust or combination, by which those
other esteemed Boston contemporaries,
the Herald and Globe, control the Sun
day newspaper field of New England, and
prevent other papers, especially the Post,
from sharing in it. We believe the Post
has brought.thea matter to the attention
of the Massachusetts, railroad commits
sioners We feel certain that the COM
missioners will find no ground for the
POSTS charge. The Herald and Globe
have long been knownsas bitterly hostile
to everything in the shape of trust or
combination. Many. a time and oft they
have discoursed on the wickedness of
such aggregatIons Of wealth and tyranny.
It is, therefore, inconceivable that they
are themselves members of such a COM
bination The Post must be misinformed.
Senator Stewart has been giving the
country for several days past an illustra-
tion Of w hat the silver Senators can do
IN the way of talking against time. Com
paratively little of what he has said has
been germane to any issue now before
the Senate. A very large part of it has
consisted of an attack ON the President,
which has very little bearing upon the
wisdom Of repeating or not repeating the
Sherman bill 1t has answered his pur-
pese just as well, however,. It has killed
lust as much time as if it related strictly
to the question at issue, and required far
less effort on the part Of the orator. It
is not clear whether Mr.. Stewart has got
Through with it OF not, but it is evident
that as long as his tongue and lungs con-
tinne to perform their functions he need
ret sapn. fog there can be no exhaustion
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1893-09-28

of such matter as he is firing off. If Mr..
Stewards lungs fail him there are some
twenty or more pairs of lungs to take up
the matter and give him a chance to
recuperate. Practically, therefore the
stream of talk which the silver Seators
can pour forth is inexhaustible, If no
way is discovered to shut it off it is use
less to expect any vote on the silver bill
at this session Of Congress or the next.

Whatever else may be said about
Senator Cameron of Pennsylvania, his
courage cannot be questioned. He repre-
sent state in which:pu blic..sentiment
is overwhelmingly opposed to free silver.
If there is any opposing sentiment it is
SO feeble.as to not make itself observable.
Yet Senator Cameron is not only op-
posed to the repeal of the Sherman law,
but is also in favor of the free coinage of
silver, and he has publicly declared these
opinions and announced his intention to
support them by his vote. Whether it is
legitimate for the representative of a
state to thus misrepresent the opinion of
the people of his state is question
which different people will answer differ
emily. Senator Cameron would doubtless
answer it in the affirmative.

excess of 500, 900 and less than $500, 900,
and at three per cent on value in excess
of $500, 600 When the successor shall be
in any degree of collateral consanguinity
to the predecessor, or stranger in blood
to him, duty at the rate of two per
cent upon the value in excess of 100000
and less than $500, 900 is to be assessed,
and on value above this a duty of six per
cent. The bill contains a provision that
no duty shall be. levied in respect of any
successor when such shall be the wife of
the predecessor.
