The Standard Oil Trust has just
given another exhibition of its pow
er and has virtually crushed out all
competition. The price of oil was
forced up until it reached point
high enough to involve every COM
petitor of the trust and then let
20, and the small fry specuhtors
went under in the crash 1t might
be said that the whole world is now
within the grasp Of the trust.
Free oil no longer has any terrors
for the trust, since it has
entered into a combination with
the Russian oil producer, the only
foreign competitor it had to fear.
The trust is now in position where
it can levy tribute from the con-
sun,er at will and it is needless to
say that it will be ready to take ad
vantage of the opportunity, and
millions of dollars will flow into
the pockets Of the holders of oil
trust stock.

THE St. Louis Republic talks
sense when it gives voice. to sucl
sentiments as these:
Business ought to have littlt
rest from the violent agitation OF
questions which affect the move.
msnts Of trade and the status Of
contracts. Agitations of financial
questions are often necessary to
readjust relations which have be-
come oppressively wrong. When
tnnsy are unnecessary and unpro-
ductixe, business can properly ask
why politicians, Cannot remain
quiet fox a fex months. !. :
This advise eoraing: from the
the. leading Democratic. paper in
Missouri to the Democratic. party,
which is the party that is continn-
ing this unnecessary discussion Of
financial and kindred subjects,
should be needed. Let business
have a chance to recover from the
disturbing influences that have
been at work for the past three OF
four years. A doctor does not try
to- cure a patient by continually
talking over his troubles with him.
but gives him a dose of medicine
and allows it to take affect before he
talks about trying another remedy,
And so it is with the business in
terests of our country. The Dem
ocratic party has administered its
dose and should now stand back
and watch the effects before il
tries another. 1t might also be
well to add that it is sometime;
unwisc to- dose Il man with medi
cine because he imagines he Is sick
for he might form tEs. drug habit
and thereby throw his whole sys
tenn out of gear The drastic dose
the Democracy wants to admins
ter to- om laws might have bane
full affect.

If the Democrats are sincere in
their anxiety to enact the laws in
extra session of the Missouri legis-
lature that they opposed during
the regular session, they will make
haste to fan IN with the majority in
the lower House, and make the extra
session as short as possible. Bull
do1ng and time killing tomfoolery,
that was SO general on the Demo
cratic side of the House last winter.

SINCE we have been in the news
paper business, we have, from per-
sonal observation and experience,
arrived at the conclusion that the
man who transgressess our social
laws, especially if bis family con-
nections are eminently respectable,
has q greater dread for newspaper
notoriety than he has for the law
courts. Once his infraction dis
covered, his first move is to the
Office of the local paper to suppress
publication, and if successful in this
he will 60 through the process OF
the courts with nonchdlence, know.
ing that the history of his wrong.
doing will be confined to the mar.
row limits of locality. A metro
,nlitan paper can, of course. pub
lish such items regardless Of tn.
position of the parties concerned
and were it Suppressed in one paper
it would certainly appear in an
other. But in small towns wher.
people usually 60 i'll clans, tn
EDITOR Of q paper must exercise
considerable finesse to avoid clash
ing with the different elements. II
fact, he must consider whether it i
we'll for his business interests be
fore he publishes certain items o
news.

A Party Without a Leader.
Row the Gt0se DEMOCRAT

sa01 THE GLOBE DEMOCRAT.
There is manifest force in the
declaration of u prominent states
man that the supreme misfortune
Of the Democratic party at the pres
cnt time is the want Of a leader.
The members Of the organization
are like an ay1ny that has lost its
commander and scattered in all
directions for lack of a master
spirit to- unite the the various frag-
ments and make them practically
effective. In the nature of things,
President Cleveland should be
his party's leader, but he is not
recognized as such. On the
contrary, he is regarded by the ma
lority of Democratic voters as a
man who has abandoned the prin-
ciples upon which he was elected
and forfeited his claims to con-
fidence and support. He is strong
with aeertain element Of the party,
but it is not the element that counts
for most at the ballot-box. Almost
AT Of the conspicuous Democrats
of the country are against him for
one reason and another, and he gets
more praise from Republican than
from OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. Its
obviously impossible for him tc
bring about conference snd harmony
in the broken ranks Of his party.
He is more of a disturber than Il
coaIcsccr, so to speak, and every
step that he takes tends to increase
the liscord and uncertainty.
In the list of other well-knowr
Democrats who might be supposed
to possess qualities Of leadership
there is not one who merits seriol.
consideration. The fact that Vice
President Stevenson is put forward
1t: this relation goes to show thu
discouraging nature of the outlook
He represents nothing more thar
respectable mediocrity, and ha:
never done anything to justify ;
belief in his ability to rcorganize
de1horalizcd party and lead it t
> victory. Senator Hill is man o.
considerably more polical sense ant
influence, but was terribly beaten il
: his own State last year; Senate
: German is a skillful manipulate
q within certain limits, but l,is eapac
ity is not equal to the prcsen
r emergency. And so it is as to al
: the rest of those from among WHOM
2 H leader must he chosen if the part,
E is to- have one. They are leader
e only in ii restricted and infcrio
: sense. f1le gift Of solving larg
n and difficult problems, Of conccr
S trating random energies. of inspil
: ing party activity and determine
f ton, does not belong to them. The
are all sadly defective in csScnti:

There was a @rangle the other day
allowing clerks to Congressman.
he pay Of Senators and Representa-
es should be reduced to 80, 500,
tone-half enough to closine, board and
transporstARmIh ey should only be
pad when in actual attendance. Then
legislators would not aspire from NOR
ceDary motives; they would then be
as they represent ideas, p%rinci-
and Governmental policies. Let
be no clerks to Senators or mem
bers; committees should have steno-
graphical clerks. A legislator, ma
tional or State growing rich in o hur-
ny should be presumption of guilt, sub
ject to rebuttal upon evidence. Venal-
ity is the curse OF this age and
try. Only in the United States among
civilized tribes are legislators paid
more than will decently maintain
them. An Irishman, Scotchman; Eng
lishman or Feenchman would scorn to
consider what he would sacrifice while
serving his country as O statesman.-
