REMARKS ON REPEAL.

Anu now the gay aha glQQy congress
man will assume proper aspect of
solemnity, leave Washington and go
home to talk politics in his favorite
corner grocery .-MilWaukee journal.
This sturdy old world continues to re-
volye on it's axis according to schedule.
and Is still tolerably comfortable
place of residence. in spite of 1.-THE con-
summation of the colossal crime of the
century" Washington News.
That standard must be fixed and I'M.
alterable. We have now said that our
standard shall be fixed and unalterable.
Not only have we repealed the purchas-
ing act. but we have voted down all
sorts of crazy schemes including free
colnage.-kansas City Times.
1t is help, at all events. and though
1t comes too late for many who have
been overwhelmed by disaster which it
might have averted Or delayed, will be
hailed with joy by all who care for
sound money and public honor.-New
York Tribune.
President Cleveland will now shake
hands Ill farewell with the bold, brave,
conscientious Republicans who stood by
him i'll the fight for honest money, and
go back to his Gr8co-Roman wrestling
match with the mossbacks. heelers and
place buyers of his own party.-Phila-
delphia Press.
Now that we all see with natural and
healthy vision, let the South and West,
the mining population and the agricul-
tural population, organize the currency
movement of the century and establish
Dimetaliic coinage, with a paper circu
lation suitable to business needs.-St.
Louis Republic.
Congress has adjourned, and there
Will be quiet at the capitol for five
weeks from next Monday. Then, or
soon thereafter, the tariff bill will be
taken up, and will be about the sole
topic OF discussion, as the silver Ques.
ton was during the last three MONTHS
Chicago Tribune.
We tender our hearty congratulations
to the people of the United States on
this demonstration of the fact that their
VIII is still the supreme law of the land
as we'll as upon the disappearance from
the statute book of the perniciouS meas
ure which has wrought such incalculable
dlsaster.-New York Herald.
Because the senate did the right thing
by the Voorhees, bill under compulsion,
IS no argument against the necessity for
closure. BY all means, let closure
rule be put into effect before the gar
rulouS old gentlemen. refreshed by rest,
get chance to give another hippodrome
exhibition with tariff discussion as the
motif.-Chicago Times.
The first change demanded in 1892 was
made yesterday. MIR. Harrison and Mr.
Reed may now open fire on the Demo-
Gratis for their reckless assault upon Re-
Republican legislation. By the way. Mr..
Reed voted for the repeal of the law he
helped to enact, ana Mr.. Harrison, who
signed it in 1890. recently denounced
his own act.-St. Louis Post dispatch.
After the manner in which the senate
allowed the minority to obstruct the
silver repeal bill the method of the
house in dealing with the filibusters is
refreshing The silver purchase clause
OF the Sherman act is wiped from the
statute books by the signature of the
president. and the country goes upon a
firm financial basls.-Philadelpbia In
Quirer.
Now that the repeal bill is out of the
way, 1t will become the duty of congress
to take up with care and earnestne IS
the question of revenue. The state
ment Of the treasury yesterday dis
closed deficit Of revenue of some S24,-
100000 for the past four months, or at
the rate of S72,000.O00 per year. This
is situation which. SO soon as the reg
ular session begins, will demand imme-
diate attention.-New York Times.
1t must have been with feelings of
rare good humor that Mr.. Cleveland ap-
proved the bill few hours after it
passed the house. To the country it
was message of emancipation from an
almost uncomfortable bondage. TO the
president it was in Its way a certificate
of character-a sign of the approval
which the people, through their repre- =
sentativeS, extend to him for his pluck,
SteadfaStneSS and DatriOtiSm.-Ch Chicago
Evening Post.
All honor to President Cleveland who,
by his call upon congress, paved the way
for safety and who. by his patriotic
firmness, forbade disgraceful compro-
mise. Ali honor to the Democrats in
both houses who had charge OF the bill
and remained faithfully at their posts
through all uncertainty and discourage
ment. All honor to those Republicans
who contributed by word and vote to the
repeal of ''cowardly makeshift," they
themselves had nacted.-BuffaloTi
Repeal is at last accomplished. The
stability of the currency is assured.
Business can now proceed with an as
that the money of the country is to be
sound and honest money. The cheap
money delusion has cost the nation
dear, but it will never be so strong
again. The repeal of the Republican
makeshift marks the beginning of the
end of the combined dishonesty and
hallucinatiOn which have threatened our
currency ever since the war time.-NeW
York World.
After three years of mad experiment
in bucking against that law of trade
which makes the price of commodities
conform to supply, and that law of
finance which makes the value of
promise to pay dependent upon the
means and the method of redemption,
followed by four months of doubt, de-
preston and semi-panic, the time of de-
liverance is at hand. We are out of the
wilderness for good, and can now 20
forward and occupy the promised Innd.
Philadelphia Record.
1t is happy omen that on the day of
this final victory for repeal the good
news Of reyiving industries should come
from so many quarters. The business
men of the country knew what they
were about when they demanded with
such unanimity the abolition of the sill
yer bullion purchase policy. Now that
repeal has come, they mean to profit at
once by the new confidence and courage
which this measure Of relief has brought
to the trade and manufacturing in
terests of the whole country.-Boston
Post.
The special session of congress, which
carried our hopes and fears in suspense
for nearly three months, goes out today
not in glory, perhaps. but at least in
responsibility. The next session will
begin ID December. In the meantime
Senator Morgan and Mr.. Bryan and
other gentlemen who have had a good
deal to say about their constituents can
move around IN Alabama and Ne
braska and elsewhere and learn what
their constituents have to say about
them. And then-.-Chicago Even
ing Post.
After wasting three months in doing
three days work the congress of the
United States has adjourned. And we
ought to be thankful for that. We ought
to be thankful that the statesmen didn't
take three years instead of three
