a Glimpse of Gladstone.

About o'clock in the afternoon / took n
bus Mt Parliament street and climbed on
top TO enjoy the fresh breeze and the move
mcnt of the streets. Just as we were pass
ing the dizzy cul-le-sac of Downing stree:
the driver turned round with a quick, ami
mated motion, and pointing his whip said,
See. ere comes he old Man" And there
coming out Of Downing street was n rather
seedy looking l-horsc victoria and in Ii an
old couple. the gentleman wearing n tall
hat considerably the worse for wear This
was the prime minister Of England and his
wife goinf, for an airing in the park. The
extreme simplicity of the turnout was inn

driver took the opportunity to crook his ell

All the passengers on the roof without ex-
ception took or their hats. Mrs. Glad

with old fashioned grace. The strong fea-

lapsed into their firm, almost stony expires

people that il is dangerous TO trust them
with any great power of government to
their direct and inconsiderate control"
No doubt the Senator expressed his hon.
est views, and there are plenty of other Re.
publcans who agree with him, but they
dare not say So II il is dangerous to trust
the people with any great power, then who
should be trusted This is question that
kings and potentates could answer satisIac.

The danger that Senator Hoar sees in

would not elect men To represent million.
aires or corporations alone This is the only
danger to he apprehendei from trusting the
people with power, and no matter what the
Republican leaders think, the day is near at

elected by direct vote Of the people. Then
there may not be 80 many millionaires and
