CURRENT COMMENT.

A DEMOCRATIC OPINION OF MIR. REED.
[From the San Antonio (Cal) Daily Express !
The tongue of Thomas B. Reed has lost
none of its venom. Whenever the gentle
man from Maine makes an impromptu
observation Cobdenism lays violent
hands on the snake-bit antidote. Reed
is Republican of the Republicans and
a Yankee of the Yankees, but he knows
more IN a minute than the entire free
trade contingent could learn in life
time. Take him up one side and down
the other, he is the ablest man that has
served in either branch of the American
Congress during the past decade and is
as nervy as he is brilliant. He ALWAYS
knows not only where he is "at" but the
exact location OF the other fellow. He is
equal to every emergency that arises and
it need surprise any one if, with his in
finitesimal minority, he routs Chairman
Wilson's British free trade troopers,
horse, foot and dragons. If he fails to
do SO it will be simply because he is cast
ing the pearls of hiswell-night matchless
intellect before swine The Express is a
Democrat, but it admires Reed for his
courage and it loves him for his brains.

The Belfast Age. which has been max
ing the air blue for some time past be-
cause Republican postmaster at Stock
ton Springs was retained, has discovered
that his retention is due to the request
of some sixty or seventy Democrats. 1t
accordingly acquits Mr.. Morton and Mr..
Donavan, who are, it says, the recognized
representatives of the party, of all COM
plicitv in the heinous offence. 'Still, =
remarks the able patriot who edits the
paper, s'we feel Inundated to think that
Republican Congressman, who devotes
the most of his time to denouncing the
Democratic party, should have more in
fuence in a Democratic post office de-
partment than the whole party organiza-
ton" 1t is truly melancholy situa-
ton, but we hope the able editor will
bear up under it.

The appearance of Richard Croker,
the Tamamny boss, in Washington has
given rise to good deal of speculation.
Ostensibly he was there to help defeat
the income tax, but il is said he is anx-
ious also to see the whole Wilson bill
defeated, believing that it is unpopular
in his State, and will seriously handi-
cap the Democratic party. AS regards
the confirmation of Peckham. Croker is
said to be somewhat non-committal. He
fears that Peckham's defeat.will SO split
the New York Democracy that there will
be little chance of getting together be-
fore the next campaign, and he is also
afraid that his confirmation may have a
similar effect under present circumstan-
ces. He would like to figure as sort
OF pacifcator between Hill and the
President and restore harmony, and is
working to that end, with, however.
but small prospect of success.

MUNICIPAL REFORM.
Mr.. Edwin ID. Mead's Address on "The
Promotion of Municipal Reform by
Education"


At the Municipal Reform Congress in
session in Philadelphia Mr.. Edwin D.
Mead delivered the following address on
the promotion of municipal reform bv
education:
There is no province where the Ameri-
can people need education more today
than in the province of municipal gov
eminent. Saving only the great ques-
ton of Industrial reform, Ii demand for
an industrial equality as complete as
the political equality which we enjoy, or
pretend to enjoy, the question of NUM-
cipal reform is the greatest question
which confronts us today in our politics.
The governments of our great cities for
the last 30 years have been our despair
Republican Philadelphia as bad as
Democratic New York, Baltimore as bad
as Chicago. The character of the men
at the head OF our city governments, our
mayors and aldermen and common coun-
ellis, has startingly deterorated. The
proudest OF American cities must blush
when it thinks who the men are in its
common council, controlling it's high in
terests, disbursing its millions of money
and representing it's corporate life,
when compared with the class of citizens
who sit in the town councils of Birming-
ham and Glasgow and the great cities
W
everything that touches municipal ad-
ministration, we are today behind Eu-
rope. We have everything to learn and
almost nothing to teach. If we cannot
have culture in control, then we shall
have anarchy. l do not believe that
we shall have anarchy; but I do re-
joice to see signs everywhere that we
are entering upon an era of genuine
culture and education, an era of revived
patriotism and thoughtfulneess. The
fact that we are here today to educate
ourselves and to educate the people, the
fact that municipal leagues, like those
here represented, are springing into ex-
istence in all the great cities Of the coun-
try, defining one of their main objects
to be the education of the people in
municipal politics is such sign. The
great instrument for the education of
the American people is the public
school. So fundamental is the public
school that it is not too much to say
that our very existence and safety de-
pend upon it's integrity and wise admin
istration. l think we are Witnessing to-
day revival of devotion to the public
school, growing feeling that it's benefits
ought to be made universal. The Pa
rochial school, I care not whether Prot
estant or Catholic, can never give any
thing but parochial education. 1t is
! not the natural cradle for the American
| democracy nor the natural promoter
| of
| Equality and Tolerance
and breadth and the best citizenship.
| Nor can much more be said in favor OF
| the private school tor the rich mans
| children. 1t promotes class distinctions,
| it harms the child. it harms the parent,
and 1t harms the State. 1T depriyes the

The reconciliation between the Emper-
or William and Bismarck ought to afford
valuable hint to Mr.. Cleveland. Who
knows but by some such process as was
employed at Berlin the President and
the New York Senator might be har-
monized. To be sure, according to the
New York Post and various other conve-
nient authorities. Mr.. Cleyeland's ways
are not usually winning, but he might
possibly for once entwine himself around
his adversary and speak soothing words
in his ear-tell him, for instance, that he
would withdraw the nomination of Peck
ham, and let bygones be bygones.

Jones-the Hon. E. l. Jones, of Water

proof. We can imagine how Mr.. Jones

The friends of the Wilson bill admit
that the attaching OF the income tax
bill to it greatly inures its chances of be-
coming a law. By means of party pres
sure and the administration whip they
hope to get it through the house, but
they grow very melancholy when they
come to consider its prospects in the
Senate. None of them appear to be con-
fident of its passage there without seri-
GUS and even vital changes.
The Portland daily press., 1894-01-27

A majority of the Democratic repre-
come tax bill to the tariff bill. That is
where it belongs. The reason that the
committee on ways and means did not
put it there was because they feared that
II the House got chance to vote upon
their revenue scheme as a whole it would
defeat it. The persons who have been
playing politics in this business or who
will be fairly open to that charge are
not those who have voted or will vote to
attach the income tax bill to the tariff
bill, but the other crowd. A scheme
for raising revenue can only be acted
upon intelligently when the whole of it
is together. If it is broken up into pieces,
and each of the fragments treated sepa-
rately, the relations between it's parts
may not he discovered or may be ignored,
with the result that a series of measures
may be passed, some of which will offset
the others, and thus the ultimate object
of the bill, which is to raise sufficient
money to pay the expenses of the gov
eminent, completely defeated. Take the
bill under consideration The tariff feat
ures of the bill will, it is acknowledged
on all sides, create a large deficiency.
This deficiency must be made up. The
committee on ways and means admit
this, inasmuch as they have prepared
an income tax bill to make it up
Now suppose Prof. Wilson had
carried his point and succeeded in keep
ing the tariff and internal revenue feat
ures of the bill separate, and the tariff
feature had passed, and the internal
revenue feature been defeated A de-
ficiency of 100000 600 would then have
stared the country in the face with no
provision made for it whatever. The
only safe, the only just way is to con-
slider the revenue raising plan as a
whole, to approve it as whole or defeat
it as a whole. This is so obvious prop
sition that nobody would suggest any
other method unless he were playing
politics.

leyn Morton and the Hon. Mr.. Donovan
would, we should think, have been
quite enough to convince an ordinary
man "what these gentlemen were
at" Yet Jones seems to think that
his discovery was something quite re-
markable, inasmuch as he explains that
"never having been in the past, and
not intending in the future, to be cam
didate for any federal Office, probably
makes this (the tendency of the commit
tee to personal aggrandizement) more APP
parent to me-" But having discovered
what his brethren on the committee
were up to, Jones promptly severed all
relation with them, and proclaimed
their wickedness to the world. This is
greatly to Jones's credit. Jones gets
there slowly, but he gets there all the
same.
