We believe Mr.. Cleveland is above and be.

partial courage of his convictions. But, as
he fails to truly represent that party, so he
must inevitably fail to control its actions.
Placed in power we believe he would do his
best to guide it in safe channels, but as a
matter of history it is shown in repeated in
stances that the majority of his party is
rarely guided by aught save selfish and sui.
cidal motives. With his ideas, the platform
on which they have placed him, and the un.
certainties surrounding those who should be
sition can not be one of calmness undis.

We cannot go so far as do some enthusiasts

The law will again try to preserve in
tact the tails of horses for their benefit.
The law means well, and it should be
enforced; but can it prevail against
fashion and the wish of gentle woman?
If women did not favor docked tails, if
they refused to use horses ,sorely affiict-
ed and deprived of natural glory, legis-
lation against this species of cruelty
might easily command respect. Here
is feminine paradox: A woman will
weep over canary that lost leg by a
rat bite; she will nurse anXiously bull
dog that was wounded in drinking de-
light of battle with his peers; yet she
will insist on docked tails as an orna-
ment to team and equipage. And she
protests when philosophers claim that
she is naturally crueler than man-Bos-

HAS BROKEN DOWN.
Tho Chairman of the Ways and
Means Committee Said to Be a
Very Sick Man.
The Strain Under Which He Has
Been So Long Has Proven Too
Heavy.
His Illness Recalls That of Mr..
Springer While in a Similar
Position.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-There Were
many anxious expressions of sympathy
for Chairman Wilson of the ways and
mean committee during the day. He
vas not in his seat and his Democratic
colleagues ON the committee admit what
has long been suspected-that Mr.. Will
son is a very sick man.
His health is completely broken by the
long strain through which he has passed
in preparing the Wilson bill, and there
are predictions that he will will not re-
enter the arena of tariff debate, but act
upon the counsel of his physicians and
yield the leadership to other hands. He
may go abroad as soon as he is able to
travel.
Mr.. Wilson's colleagues remember
how Chairman Springer yielded under
the strain of preparing the tariff bill in
the last congress and gave up the fight.
After lowering at the brink of death for
several weeks Mr.. Springer recovered
sufficiently to totter into tine house n
day and read the closing remarks of the
tariff discussion, but he was so pale and
haggard that his speech provoked SYM
patty more than applause.

NO act of violence has yet been commit
ted. Crowds of people line the streets

any at I npt to remove them at

held between the city officials and the
Traction company and the strikers, but
at present the indications appear to be
against any amicable settlement. The
strikers are conducting themselves in an
orderly manner, and are refraining
from all violent talk or action; in fact

3he Delay In Getting Another suprem
Judge Is Becoming Annoying.

7hs Delay In Getting Another Supreme
Judge Is Becoming Annoying.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 34.-While the
personal feature of the vacancy in the
supreme court interests the politicians
most, it does not approach in import
ance the material interests affected by
delay. Questions of constitutional law,
upon the decision Of which hang great
property interests, are being held in
allegiance until a full bench can pass
upon them, and naturally the litigants
are impatient under the forced waiting,
which has been protracted beyond their
expectations by the long debate of tho
senate committee over the Hornblower
nomination, and its final rejection,
which necessitates the selection of a new
candidate.
There are now 20 cases on the docket
OF the supreme court, some of which
have been side-tracked since the begin
ming of the October term, awaiting the
advent to the bench of a successor to
Justice Blatchford. The list includes
the most important cases Of the term, in
which the hearings have been deferred
at the sugges ton of the court, or the re-
quest of Attorneys for their Judgment
by a full bench. Most of them hinge
upon interpretations of constitutional
law on which it is essential that the
opinions of every justice should be re-
corded. Railroad interests and the in
terstate commerce laws play at import
ant part.
Interesting questions pertaining to
land grants are involved i'll
suits between the Northern Pacific Rail-
road company and Montana authorities,
appealed from the United States circuit
court of Montana, and one brought by
the railroad company against the auditor
Kidder county, North Dakota. Ex-
Attorney General Garland is an at
for the railroad in these cases,
while another, brought by Richard P.
of Montana against the North
ern Pacific, William Wallace, Jr., the
of Chief Justice Fuller, Gov
Toole and Mr.. Garland are
enlisted. The Interstate M COM
mission has a suit against w. p. Brin-
son from the Northern district of Hi
nois, which will be pushed by Attorney
General Olney and ex-senator Edmunds
of Vermont.

ings. Several others in which individ-
uals are the litigants, are on the wait
ing list.
Because of these cases the justices of
the supreme court brought their in1u-
nee to zeal on the senate to hasten the
of Mr.. Hornblower, and
they are most anxious to see the vacancy

SECURE GOOD SEED.

North Dakota Commission Completes an
Arrangement With Elevator Men.
MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 22.-Messrs. Ste
vens and Rasmussen and Secretary
Grant Of the Dakota railroad and ware
house commission, held a final confer
ence with the representatives of the ele-
vator companies doing business in the
hard wheat state, and perfected ar
rangements for an exchange of pure
seed for the smut-infected grain of GER
tain portions Of the state. The COM
mission has succeeded in enlist
ing the cooperation Of both the
elevator mon and the railroads. The
former agree to buy pure Minnesota
seed from the farmers and place it on
board cars at Minnesota points at the
regular market price. The railroads
have agreed to give half rates, and it is
now thought that there is little excuse
for putting dirty wheat into the ground
again this spriug.

MITCHELL'S ANKLE
Those ON the Inside Are Laughing at
the Reported %Injury-It Is Not
Authenticated.
Brady Says If Mitchell Appears In
the Ring 1t Will Be to Save
His Forfeit,
And Predicts That He Will Either
Deliberately Foul Corbett or
Lay Down.

JACKSONVILLE, Jan. 24.-Those who
are on the Inside" are beginning to
laugh at the 1umor of Mitchell's
sprained ankle. He was said to have
hurt it going up the light house stairs,
but as nobody was with him at the time
the sprain is not authenticated.
William A. Brady, manager of James
j. Corbett, arrived in Jacksonville from
Mayport during the morning. He had
risen earlier than the champion pugilist,
and after hearing of Mitchell's back
down, exacted a pledge from all those
who are stopping at Corbett's trailing
quarters to keep Corbett in ignorance of
the "news" and directed that no news
papers should be brought heal the
place.
What Brady Thinks.
When asked what he thought about
Mitchell, Brady replied: II feel certain
now, as l have always been, that Mitch
ell does not want to fight, and if he
should get into the ring, which now
seems less probable than it ever has be-
fore, 1 predict that he will do so merely
m order to save the 5000 forfeit, and
the $500 which I wagered with him
that he would not appear in the ring"
"By that you mean what p
"That," answered Brady, 'the mo-
ment the men shake hands, Mitchell will
do one of two things, either deliberately
foul Corbett or quit after the first
round"
Mr.. j. T. Bowden of Duval Athletic
club, when approached by a reporter of
the Associated Press, appeared i'll at
ease. 81 still maintain" said he, ''that
the fight will take place. Charley is in
One of his tantrums and like some of his
former moods, this will be dissipated
before nightfall. There is absolutely
nothing for Mitchell to do but fight"

and knocked in the door and demanded
money, which was refused them. While

a revolver the other took James up
stairs and hung him with a bed cord to a
joist till he was black in the face. When
they let him down he told them where
they would find some money. The

Southern Iowa Miners VIII Probably

CENIERvILLE, Ia, Jan. 24.-There
will probably be no strike of miners in
Southern Iowa this season. A big meet
ing was held here, when some attempt
was made to induce the men to protest
against the cut. Some 1000 men are
affected, but realize that the dull market
makes it impossible for the mines to
keep running on higher wages, and as
their present wages are sufficient to
maintain them through the winter, they
conclude that it will be better to work
on till better times come before making
a protest.

Suit With q Milwaukee Bank.
CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis, Jan. "a
Judge Marshall has filed a decision in
the case of the Merchants bank of Mil
waukee against the treasurer of the
town of Shell Lake. The Merchants
bank sued to recover on a town order
for 50, 200. This order had been placed
with the Shell Lake bank, which subse-
quently failed. The town of Shell Lake
had a deposit of $1,000 in the bank at
the time of its failure, and desired to
place that as an offset against the order
which the Merchants bank held. By the
decision of Judge Marshall the offset is
allowed. In this way the town does not
lose anything by the failure.

lands to stop at townsites selected by

all railroads traversing the public lands,
but the condition of affairs which caused
its introduction arose i'll connection with
the towns of Enid and Round Pond in
Oklahoma, on the line Of the Chicago
