more pleasure among his convivial COM
panions than he finds in such home.
Alas, that it should be so.
Good women ought to study the art of
pleasing more than they do. No woman
can afford to fall back on her goodness
to reform a man. 1t is dangerous ex-
pertinent and one that rarely succeeds.
The average man must be entertained.
A man who has been hard drinker or
opium victim cannot suddenly give up
his vices without some stimulant to take
their place for time. A man accus-
toned to the excitement of gay company
cannot suddenly become satisfied with the
dullness and stupidity which many good
people allow to creep into their homes

HOPEFUL SIGNS.

Tie week opens with pronounced
better feeling in business circles. There
are no signs of over-confidence, and
whoever ventures to express sentiments
too cheerful in their tenor is at once set
down as an ill-informed person. The
disposition of business men is to main-
tain cautious reserve. in act and
speech. The general inclination is still
to give full weight to the least hopeful
view and to heavily discount all signs of
improvement and all hope of speedy con
gressional action.
But there are hopeful signs. They
have forced themselves upon the atten-
tion of the over-dstrustful business
community, almost against its will, so
deep has the idea that there is justifica-
tion for the panicky condition taken
root.
There is turn for the better in manu-
facturing circles. Mills that have been
shut down are gradually resuming opera
tons, and the suspensions reported are
lessening in number and Importance. The
premium on currency dwindled to per
cent. last week, and may be expected to
practically disappear this week. Money
is decidedly easier. The influence of the
gold imports will be made manifest this
week, aud the new circulation the banks
have been taking out will begin to get
into circulation and do its part toward
easing the strain.
The stock market is expected to show
a very much better state of things this
week, as there is, and has been for sew
eral days, steady demand for stocks
for investment, and il is believed that
there will be heavy buying for the rise
that all authorities expect and predict.
II is scarcely to be hoped that the
banks will relax their grip on the cur
rency they have been holding to protect
themselves against runs just yet, but
they will doubtless be able to aid in pro-
noting the gradual return of conf
dence to greater extent than they have
felt justified in doing for some
weeks past.
On the whole, il is certain that there
is justification for n more cheerful esti-
mate of the situation, though any as
sumption that the "pinch" is over, or
measurably over, would most assuredly
be far too joyous an attitude for any
sane man 10 assume just yet

THE REPUBLICAN FUTURE.

The opinion of the supreme court
upon the points in dispute. at Newport
between the Republicans and the Dem
ocrats can scarcely be regarded as tend
ing to do more than give a respite to
either party. or to the people OF the
state. The struggle will be taken up
again in the next state campaign, in
what form cannot now be foreseen or
predicted.
The Republican claim that the opin-
ion is based upon correct principles, the
obviously proper Interpretation of the
constitution and the statutes, the ne
cessities of the occasion aud such regard
for the continuance of law and order as
the highest judicial tribunal of the state
must always be supposed to be guided
by, may all be admitted without reser-
vation.
Nothing could well be palmer than
that the Democrats, in this instance,
were not only wrong in fact and prin-
ciple, but that their claims if admitted
would have seriously deranged politics
and disturbed the foundations of law
and order. They made most serious
tactical mistake in unseating two Re-
publican members and then trying TO
force the Republican senate to unite
with the Democratic house to assist in
completing the work of the Republican
undoing. This blunder was followed
by series of performances that
strained and twisted the laws and the
constitution too violently to be en-
dured.
But the root of the difficulty, so far as
the Republicans are concerned, is their
inability to hold voters that have in
former years acted with them, and to
attach new voters to their cause. The
expedients forced upon them by the
Democrats this year, by which they
have retained control of the state ex-
ecutive department, will not serve to
win votes with next April.
Nothing Is more obvious than that
the Republican managers must bestir
themselves at once in search of a policy
and mode of procedure that will COM
mend itself to the masses of voters. The
moving spirits in the party realize this
acutely, and at present seem disposed to
act up to their intelligence and convic-
tions. it remains to be seen whether
they will do so or not. If they do there
is a fair prospect that the party may be
continued in power. If they do not
there is scarcely room for doubt that
their party will 20 to the wall.
