There is great beating ofthe tom
toms just now in all the plutocratic
papers because Senator Stewart has
dared to arraign the president of the
United States for violating the spirit
of the constitution by interfering
with the legislative branch of the
government. All this nauseating
sluSh about Senator Stewart lacking
proper respect for the chief executive
OF the nation is mere gush paid for
by pIutocracy at so much paper ac-

AS A STATE PAPER.

ARMS and the man l sing" was the
text of the Roman poet VIRGIL in COM
posing the ''1Hneid."
The man for the times, we sing" is
the text of the American people as they
read GROVER CLEVELAND'S utter
anceS
Great emergencies develop great men.
This is true in military, civil and relig-
ious life, as the heroes OF history dem
onStrate.
President CLEVELAND is living eX-
emplifcation of the rule. Not since the
trouhfous times which gave LINCOLN
to the country has such an emergency
arisen as confronts the American peo-
pie today.
1t Is literally the emergency of life and
death physically to thousands of our
people. The army of the unemployed
IS daily increasing, and the period of
the enforced idleness is uncertain
Illness produced by want, with fatal
results, or even the gaunt specter of
starvation, are conditions confronting
the people if the present situation con-
tinueS.
AT such time man at the head of
the government whose platform is, first
the people; second-the people, and
always the people, is the man for the
emergency.
1t requires great and broad minded
man, as politics are now conducted, to
set aside all question of party advantage
and ask only for the advancement of
the public interests.
1t is this course which stamps the mes
sage of President CLEVELAND as one of
the ablest state papers ever sent to con-
gress.
1t is not partisan, but patriotic
document. 1t is an argumentative ap-
peal TO the silver states to save them
from themselves.
1t is an object lesson to men of all
political creedS. which invites them, for
once at least, to cast supposed political
dogmas and advantages to the winds.
and stand together upon common
platform of humanity.
Rescue the drowning man first and
then quarrel over the question of why
he was drowning-lf quarrel there
| must be.
The few Republican leaders who
have, apparently, been willing to pro-
long the public distress for party ad-
vantage, must feel Inundated by the
stateman-like manner With which the
issue is met by the president.
A rebuke and an argument combined:
a sinking of party for the common veal ::
a model of terse and pointed diction; a
proclamation that the interests and well
ware of the American people are above
and beyond all else-all this concen-
trated, stamps the message as a docu-
ment which will live in history as a
state paper which rose to the occasion
| of the greatest financial crisis the coun-
! try has ever seen.
A crisis when bread for tie masses is
what hangs trembling in the balance.
A congress which would refuse to
speedily do its duty at such a time
should be prorogued forever.

THE SENATE IN ACTION

People who have usually looked to the
house of representatives instead OF the
senate for parliamentary ginger will be
somewhat surprised at the energy dis
played yesterday in the American house
OF lords. That the silver fight was to
be terminated in this body has long been
anticipated. That it was to be opened
with such violent JUNCTION by these grave
and reverend seignieurs was hardly sus-
pected.
EUGENE HALE. small bundle of am
bilious sprghtliness, bounced into the
arena prepared, in his mind, to carry off
all the honors of Immediate repeal of
the SHERMAN act for the Republican
party, and was promptly called down by
Mr.. VOORHEES,. Quite evident it was
from the tone of the latter's remarks
that he has 10 love for the partisan lit
tie gentleman from Maine.
Senator HILL, of New York, diSSipated
sundry rumOrs concerning his probable
friendship for free coinage by introduce
ing bill for unconditional repeal.
Virtually, this puts the Democratic
party i'll the aggressive, takes the wind
out of Mr.. HALE's sails, and lays the
foundation for vigorous Democratic
warfare or free silver faIacies.
OF course, Senator STEWART was
largely in it from the beginning. Plant
ing himself firmly upon the ground that
unconditional repeal destroyed silver as
money metal, he urges complicated
system of certificates mainly, as he
claims. to supply deficiency in cur
rency." 1t is evident that Mr.. STEWART
does not take into consideration the
millions of his pet kind of currency
now banked up in the treasury vaults,
and which it is found impossible to
float among the people.
There Is no complaint against the
quantity of our currency. The quality
only is now at stake, and the sooner
Senator STEWART awakeps to this fact
the greater will be the Importance
which will attach to his financial adum-
bratlons.
Altogether, the scenes in yesterdays
senate augur favorably for prompt and
judicious legislation upon a threaten
ing financial condition.

New YORK, Aug. S.-The Washing
ton correspondent of a morning paper
telegraphs the following with the state
ment that it was written specially by
Hon. Thomas B. Reed, of Maine:
lone can hardly fail to be impressed
by the resemblance between the mes
sage of President Cleveland today, and
that of the last Democratic president
who addressed congress of his party
in 1857.
"While the disaster is now the same,
the expression of sorrow is very similar.
Mr.. Cleveland has set an example
of short, single-topIc messages; but,
while this message is impressive,
it is far from being adequate 10
the occasion. While my votes in the
past show plainly that l agree with
much that he says, should not be do
ing justice to my own sense of the truth
If l did not record my entire disbelief
IN the idea that the message states the
underlying cause of our disaster.
The cause of our miSfortunes is
plainly this: Utter uncertainty reigns
in finance, tariff. and in everything on
which business can be based If you
remove one element of uncertainty,
there remain all the others. You cannot
readjust the economic principles which
govern a country without disaster, es-
pecially if that readJuStment be violent
and involve the wages and salary of

A Wonderful Tramp to Be Wound

Chris Miller is the so-called United
States boundary line walker. He has
been getting no little newspaper no.
toriety on his tramp around the
country. He is Chicago newspaper
man, and says he is in quest of
materials for book that he proposes
to write the coming year. He arrived
in st. Paul last evening. and the accom-
panying illustration is faithful coun-
terpart, or as he looked upon making
his advent into the city. He travels
largely upon nerve, for he started out
on his pedestrian tour without a pleth-
ORIG pocketbook. One would think that
he would fare rather hard, and so he
has, but he insists that he has enjoyed
his long walk immeasur0ably. There
have been plenty of diversions to amuse
him EN- route.
For Illustration, while travelling up
the Rio Grande ne was taken prisoner
by band OF Mexican banditti and at
first subjected to iDdignities. He made
the best of it. however, and convinced

asked for cup of coffee. The Next
