IL has been semi-oficialiy announced that
President Cleveland has decided upon a line OF
policy in the matter OF consular appointments
which. he is alleged to believe. can only result
In material expansion of the stream of exports
now flowing from the United States TO foreign
lands. This very desirable state OF affairs is to
be brought about by the selection Of only such
,men 40 are possessed of exceptional business
qualifications, keen, wide-awake hustlers, who
know a commercial opening when they see it
and who will keep the American merchant and
manufacturer fully informed as to the opPortu-
mites that present themselves. A more excel
lent or truly patriotic conclusion could hardly
be reached, but there are several
reasons why it can never be much
more than an attractive theory. Where
does the President expect to find sound and
successful business men who will accept poorly
paid consular positions? And supposing few
clever traders were secured, how long would
they remain loyal wholly to the national inter-
ests? Any shrexd business man who finds him
self in q consular position is apt soon to forget
all about the waiting millions Of his fellow
countrymen, and, either abandoning or only
nominally retaining his consular duties, to be-
come deeply engaged in pursuits that promise
large financial gain to the consul If the Presi-
dent is going to make business ability the con-
sular test people who are not seeking Office will
watch rather closely to see what manner OF
men are those who will hire out the ability to
earn from So, 900 to $50, 900 per annum for the
miserable pittance which is doled out to those
who represent the greatest Of governments in
the worlds centers of commerce.

Senate being reorganized in the interest Of .
section composing one-fourth Of the states Of
the Unicn, in which states republican voters
are boldly and successfully disfranchised be-
cause they are republicans, and. when the csbi-
net Of the new President is made up mainly in
the interests Of the great corporations Of the
land, there is but added reason for increasing
ardor and activity on the part Of every true
friend Of human rights, free labor and self
respecting Americanism- The struggle did not
end in 1892. As Abraham Lincoln. in the hour
OF previous republican defeat, so faithfully
said, all republicans may say with fidelity now:
The fight must so on. The cause Of human
liberty must not be surrendered at the end Of
one or even one hundred defeats'''
All this may be easily understood by some
people, but it seems mysterious to those who
sat beneath Senator PETERS outrageous whis-
kers and listened attentively to his epic on how
he and James 3. Weaver and Mary E. Lease and
man named Vandervoort slew the entire re-
publican party when merchantable eggs were
worth twenty-one cents a dozen in the Chicago

Baltinore's municipal authorities are moving
toward the levyIng of tax telegraph, tele-

city needs any increase OF income. but because
it desires to convince the electrical corporations

line Of such taxation have heretofore been frus-
trated, for bill authorizing such alevy, passed
at the last session OF the legislature. vetoed

mayor Of Baltimore has come to the conclusion
