Lewiston Journal-Oh fic and alas,
boys! A Maine Central conductor said
with deep feeling the other night, I'D
rather have twenty river drivers on my
train than foot ball team. The river
drivers will make less trouble for me and
the passengers. I've had plenty of cx-
perience with both classes and l know
what I'm talking about The railroad
men have to put up with a great deal in the
past but they'll be organizing an anti
football league pretty SOON AT one
point on the Maine Central few days ago
a car full of passengers took grim pleas
ure in seeing the conductor dust out some
of the long haired roysterers. They had
been bowling songs, shouting silly college
gossip about the car, running up and down
the aisle and otherwise inspiring hearty
disgust in the bosom of every passenger
who had the misfortune to be penned up
with them. At stopping place they
rubbed it into the long suffering CON
ductor by standing on the car platforms
and persistently bothering the train crew.
Then did those passengers feel deep
peace descend upon their souls when the
conductor grabbed the rowdies one after
the other, damned them through the car
door and locked them in.

of the tariff question, gold is more likely
to flow back from Europe than to be
attracted in that direction. The rail-
road strike in the West has become an
element OF serious business disturbance;
but the very nature of the struggle and
the vast Importance to the public OF an
uninterrupted continuance Of railway
traffic encourage the hope and belief
that this new labor complication will be
speedily adjusted. Industrial output
has increased as a result OF the resumD-
ton OF work in the bItuminous coal re-
gions. Crop prospects have improved
and the wheat harvest is now actively
under way.
Considering that we are living under
vicious Republican laws which must be
repealed, or modified, before full and
genuine prosperity can strike as, the
outlook is bright enough to satisfy any
one but calamity bowling Republican

nrpunL1cAN COUNTY rIcKEr.

The Republicans have seldom made a
worse mess Of 1t than they did Saturday
in nominating their county ticket. 1t
is the outcome OF factional fighting and
the free use OF the political knife aud a
sorry affair it is.
In laundering imitation Of the Re-
publican League convention at Fair
mont the Ohio county convention
passed an anti-foreigner resolution and
on top Of this action il deliberately
turned down a gentleman, an American
citizen OF foreign extraction, who
had previously been plead with ~
the wiser heads to allow the
use OF his name. But the wiser heads
were turned down and gross insult
put upon the foreign-born citizens o.
Ohio county, and those Of foreign extrac-
ton, who are large, public-spirited and
influential class OF citizens, who are en-
titled to representation by one Of
their number.
That was mistake No. 1, a grave one,
and one the Republicans will feel sore
" when ths people render their verdict
upou these lately assumed Kuow-no;h-
ing airs of the Republican party.
Mistake No. was quito as glaring
aud suicidal, and occurred in the ballot
ing for the fourth candidate who, as
usual, was to come from and represent
the interests OF the country outside Of
Wheeling. The candidate Of the couu-
try people, however, was deliberately
turned down with a handful Of votes,
and the slate candidate who was
supposed TO come from the coun-
try, but who has recently
moved to the city and was resident Of
Wheeling when his name was put up,
was rushed through almost by acclama-
ton, thus leaving the country districts
unrepreSented on the ticket. And now
we have the unprecedented and unheard
OF spectacle of the four candidates for
the Legislature all coming from Wheel
ing and not one TO represent the re-
mainder Of Ohio county.
Mistake No. in itself is enough to
defeat the ticket, and it should, for it is
the work Of selfish, small-fry politicians
who have no care, whatever, for the
interests of the people and little,
indeed, for their party except where
their own personal interests ara con-
cerned. The ticket is really the result
of a flim-fam game on the better ele-
ment Of the Republican party, as that
element knows to its sorrow and dis
gust, and deserves to be beaten out OF
sight, as il certainly will be ii the Dem
ocrats use ordinary wisdom and com
mon sense in selecting their candidates.

NEW MONTH AND NEW YEAR.

Yesterday opened a new month and
to-day opens a new fiscal year of the
government, and both open with sub
stantial progress and Improvement
shown and bright prospect ahead.
BradStrCcts figures OF business failures
for the six months ending yesterday
show relatively greater degree of
soundness ia existing business condi-
tions than ia 1898 The business fail
ures in the first six months of last
year were $3.50, and for the same period
this year 6.59S, or ESQ less this year
than last. The total liabilities were in
1898 $40, SEQ. 227, for the same period
this year, SS2,555, $50, or less than hail
what they were last year.
There has been quiet, steady i'm
provement in business sentiment OF late,
which has increased as the tariff bill has
neared completion. A financial contem-
porary points to the action Of the banks
in refunding TO the Treasury the gold
exports OF last week aud the timely ut
terances of President CLEVELAND with
regard TO the financial situation as
having relieved apprehen-
sion about the monetary
outlook. Foreign confidence in the de-
termination and ability OF the govern
ment to maintain the public credit has
been strengthened by the Presidents
statement; aud there was some renewal
OF Europeau Investment in the share
markets at once. The gold out
flow has been comparatively small
this week, aud there is reason to antici-
pate an early cessation of shipments Of
the yellow metal. The currency move
ment, which has heen so long in the
direction of New York, is likely to be re-
versed now that the harvest season has
begun. With larger amount of money
to move the crops, rising tide Of pro-
duce exports which may shortly be ex-
pected, and more active employment

now only awaiting definite settlement
