THE SEVENTH RESOLVES.

The Republicans of the Seventh dis
trict got themselves together in delegate
convention and resolved. They point
ed with pride' and ''viewed with
alarm" after the good OLD fashion which
once fired the heart of their dnpes. but
which has lost both its illuminating and
firing power by events which have
shown the horror to Ue twaddIe and the
alarms silly. Momentum, however, car
ries political bodies, as we'll as other
masses of inert matter, along long after
the initial force has ceased.
They are confident that all the trouble
of the past year WAS due Ito the threat
and purpose of the Democratic party
to destroy the American system of pro-
tection," unmindful or ignorant of the
fact that there is no American system
of protection; that the system is as old
as tyranny itself; that Democrats did
not threaten its destruction-the more's
the pity-in the bill their congress
formulated, and, what is very much
more 10 the point. had the mandate of
the Chicago platform been literally and
| explicitly put into enactment, and a
revenue bill been passed, its rates
would nave been far in excess of those
which the Republican national platform
demanded as sufficient. But when a
lot Of charlatans and ignoramuses get
together to play what the Tribune says
| is lone of the tricks of the old parties"
on a lot of gullible voters, it is hardly
to be expected that they will adhere to
facts.
But they showed their happy skill in
| saying nothing on the silver question.
They "believe," very firmly. of course,
that they want the largest use of silver
possible consistent with the perman ent
maintenance OF equal values of all dol
lars" This is one of Sherman's gilt.
! tering generalities." What does il
mean? If silver dollars are real dol.
lars. how can there be too many OF
them? How can any number of them
be inconsistent with the equal value
of all other dollars?" If silver dollar
is dollar, how can it affect the value
of other dollars?
Then how is this ''largest possible
use' to be determined? Who or what
body shall fix the limit? What kind OF
dollars shall they be? What are the
eft means" that the government shall
| use to bring all this about? There is Nc
answer to these questions to be found
in the plank, which the Pioneer Press
declares to be sound to the core" II
was evidently intended to use words tC
avoid saying anything. The multitude
CT pertinent questions that spring un-
| answered out Of it show that its pur-
pose was to conceal and befog, not to
| explain or declare.
These are the two main questions or
which MIR. Eddy will ask the suffrages
of the voters of the Seventh district
and If he or his convention think thai
their answers to the questions will sat
isfy the voters there-saVing the doIts
who are not asking qUestions-theu
they must be forgetful of the change
that has come over that district since
the days when whatever a Republican
platform said went unquestioned.

MAYOR SMITHS VETO.

With characteristic enterprise, the
Pioneer Press of yesterday morning
makes bold-faced attack upon the city
administration, and especially Mayor
Smith, in alleging that there would now
have to be farewell to all proposed
economy in the financial affairs of the
city.
1t Is natural for the p. p. to assume
this attitude close OH the eve OF state
and county election, to cry Gang" and
desire to miSrepresent now as in the
past all acts promulgated by Democratic
officials of the city. But III this par
ticular instance the p. p. is good ways
off the track. aud the published state
nlent is neXt to ali unmitigated lie.
Mayor Smith clearly defined his COM
ing policy and his attitude about the
public expenditures, on the morning of
June ., when he delivered his inaugural
message before the common council,
and which was printed verbatim in the
columns of the GLOBE at the time. The
language of the mayer at that time
leaves no room for doubt, and we quote
ii here once more so that there be no
error. Mayor Smith said:
''lt is well-knOwn fact that l have
always III the past advocated the pay
ment OF liberal salaries to all of the Off
GERS and employees of the city, ,and would
now. If the eXlgencies of the times did
not demand retrenchment III every de-
partnent. When the industries of the
country are tottering to a fall, our peo-
pie burdened with debt, aud taxing
- fn haj In n
1t is time that the tax eaters should
come 10 the front and help TO bear these
burdens. We would therefore recon-
mend, II the common council has the
power, that committee be appointed
with view 10 liberal reduction of all
salaries, and we sincerely hope that the
council VIII see the necessity of at once
giving this subject their earnest consid-
Grafton"
Mayor Smith, in vetoing the resolu-
ton, expressly said that he would will
Ingly sign the same if the obnoxious
to be allowed to destroy the credit and
standing OF the city. and if partisan
papers cap find no better material than
sucn policy. it is matter OF congra tn
latlon and good fortune for the city of
st. Paul to have a mayor who has the
good sense and business tact TO sit down
upon council which Will lend It's aid to
such unbusinesslike measures. The
Democratic members of both houses
should see to it hereafter that they are
no longer Led into such mistakes by
their willy confreres Of Republican per-
suaSion.
Let us have a business administra-
ton. Give US the meat without the
trimmings, and the people will be bet
ter satisfied. The floor of the council
chamber should serve better purpose
than to be simply the field Of sky rookie
oratory.

AT THE METROPOLITAN.

Commencing next Sunday night at the
Metropolitan, NJ. B. Curtis, who has not
been seen here for several years, will
make his temperance in the new
version of '.Sam'l OF Posen, The Drum
mer Up to Date" 1t is much better
play than most Of the pieces put to-
gether for comedy stars. Its plot is
simple, ineligible and probable, and its
text is direct, and often forceful. The
play has been greatly improved in its
new dress. Samuel Plastrick is a purely
comic parsonage, a charicature in
fact, though he is founded on.
reality. Curtis portrayal of the
role is said to be as glib. wary, specu.
lative aud good humored as ever. This
performer has done nothing else nearly
SO good, and he will no doubt make a
new fortune with his revived play and
afford much wholesome merriment to
the multitudes. for Sam'l is undeniably
and continually funny. Mr.. Curtis this
season is uncOmmUnly well supported.
Miss Albina de Mer, who is forcibIe
and adroit actress in addition to being
magnificent dresser, will again be

antry on the highways and laid a tax
for that purpose on the landowners.
Privilege rose in opposition. Tie CLERGY
attacked him as an infidel; the mobiles
denounced him as a disturber. "Jhe
populace of France" they declared. "is
liable to talliage and forced labor at
will. and that is part of the constltu-
tion;" just rs we hear now that bounties
and subsidies and imposts are vested
rights.
The opposition was too strong for the
weak king. Turgot was removed. Priv
ilege reigned. The revolution followed.
Cleveland, too. has fonnd Privilege,
drunk with the wealth it has taken from
the people, and buttressed by power
that wealth has enabled it 10 buy, too
strong to let him redeem the pledges
made the people or reform the abuses
they set him to. The question now is.
VIII the sovereigns of the nation yield
as Louis did? Will they be moved by
the fierce assaults. the appeals to their
preJudices, the play on their fears, the
open lies and the covert inSinuations
with which their Turg0t and his cause
are assailed, and reinstate privilege; or
will they, in the congressional elections
this fall, give him their confidence and
hold up his hands?
St. Paul daily globe., 1894-08-16

icalism and compare them with the
conservatism of the house by adding
many more.
But with the growth of corporations
deriving life or benefits from legisla-
ton. with the use OF legislation to ad-
vance private or corporate interests.
and with the development OF the LOBBY
which this use has bred, there has come
about condition OF things. there have
developed tactical methods by the lobby,
that form an interesting feature i'll any
consideration of senates or double
houses. their preservation or extinction.
we have just seen striking eXemplitl-
cation in congress of this method, and
1t can be seen by any observer of the
action of any state legislature. Ii u
corporation has a measure which 1t
wishes to have passed, it has ii intro
duced In the lower and more numerous
house, because there there is the great
est likelihood of opposition. and there
the greater difficulties must be over
come. The lobbyist knows we'll that in
the larger number of the lower house,
their more direct responsibility to the
people, lie his greatest obstacles. He
addresses his energies to the hardest
task first.
When, however, these interests, cor
porate or individual, wish to defeat
measure which will reduce their privl-
leses. they make no opposition to it i'll
the house. or at best but a feint. and re-
serve their efforts for use on the senate.
When the house put sugar on the free
list Mr.. Havemeyer and his agents were
indifferent TO the action, because they
felt secure in the power they could
WELD in the senate. Their confidence
is justified by the event. A senate is the
smaller body. and, if money must be
used.it can be more economically placed
there than in the house. There are less
votes needed to give majority. So has
developed the rule of the lobby: Iutro-
duce the bill you want in the house and
fight the bill you don't want in the SEN
ate. As bearing on the question of the
utility of the senate this fact is import.

sENATES AND LoBRuEs.

1t is fortunate for the federal senators
that their Offices are so securely fort

their own consent must be had to an
