acts should be removed, and that it
should be speedily decided whether
there is to be any canal or not. AS for
convict labor, the legislature will have
to do something to supplement it's work
of last year, whereby the opportunities
for employment in prisons were very
materially curtailed. AS matter OF
the merest humanity, work will have to
be provided in some form, and with
suitable regulations, such as would or
should be perfectly feasible in Massa-
chusetts, why might not the
cenvicts be as properly en-
ployed out Of doors upon public
works, as in the prison shops? There
are certain unquestioned advantages in
outdoor labor, and it might even be
imagined that many of the convicts
themselves would prefer to spend the
summer and portions of the spring and
fall "at the seashore," rather than re-
main hived up in. Austin street, Charles
town. AT any rate we do not see any
occasion for the Boston globular hys-

If George FREQ W1lnaInS SHoulu nap
pen to be beaten in the democratic state
committee, which meets for organiza-
ton, today, as it is predicted in Boston,
the end will have come sooner than
many had expected. 1t certainly seems
that his triumph in the state convention
in this city, last fail, was but an incom-
plete and passing triumph. Even among
those who We're then his supporters,
there have been revolts and OBJECTIONS.
His attempt to make Col. Drinlwater
the candidate for the Craftsmanship of
the state committee had to be aband-
oned because of the opposition, and now
that Christopher T. Callahan, the quon-
dam candidate for lieutenant governor
being brought to bear upon the gentle
man from Holyoke to refuse to stand
for the office. There seems to be a re-
volt, down Boston way, among the sup
posed Williams men, and Senator
George P. Cooke of Milford, who has
occupied somewhat neutral position in
the factional fight, is the candidate of
the opposition. Williams may not be
thrown down today, but with his ex-
traordinary capacity fol making enc
mics, the chances would seem to be
against his remaining in control Gas he
desires till the next presidential cleo
ton, and with the passing of Williams,
the old line democrats are certain to re-
turn to power. The appearances in New
York also are that the Bryan dynasty
is decaying and that Croker and Tam
many constitute the dominant power in
the state democracy, or very soon will,
by virtue of complacent diplomacy and
judicious silence.
This tendency in the east is wholly at
variance with the promotion of Con
gresham Hinrichsen of Illinois, Alt
gelds campaign manager, to the chair
manship Of the democratic congression-
al committee, which of course means
longer life to William ]. Bryan. Mean
while, Congressman Bailey, the demo-
cratic house leader, is endorsing the
Chicago platform all over again, and
predicting Bryan's denomination as
a certainty. These things may be.
but with the coming return of the
older democratic leaders in the east,
! there will have to be some compromise.
The campaign will have to be run for
the purpose of catching votes, not to re-
pei them, or there will be another split
in the party. Free silver might remain
in the platform, but not as an essential
part OF the architecture. 1t might be
tackled on as moulding, just for looks.
while the structural support of the en-
tire edifice might be down with trusts
Recent events are well calculated to
make such an issue very attractive to
dangerously large number of voters.
and tend to nullify or hide certain de-
fects and weaknesses in the platform.
The trust" issue in the hands of skill
full politicians, who once controlled the
democratic party and who are apt to
come struggling back, as fires silver and
hostility to the judiciary sink out of
sight, might give the republican party
much more serious cause for alarm
than It had in 1896. With such an issue.
the support of the gold democrats would
hardly be worth counting on.

Gov Woleott's suggestion for the
employment of convicts in digging the
Cape Cod canal hasn't aroused much
enthusiasm. The Boston Advertiser
thinks the plan might do If properly re-
gulated. The Herald is doubtful The
Journal says nothing The Globe is
emphatic: mo convict labor regime
here" The Springfield Republican re-
serves its opinion. Probably the
brethren would advance more eagerly
TO the discussion if there were more
general conviction that the canal would
earn a reasonable income upon its
probable cost 1t is not to be supposed
that Gov. Wolcott means to give his
endorsement off-hand to the canal pro-
ject, but it is desirable that certain real
estate complications caused BY previous

If any proof were needed of Gen. eros,
venor's title to be called a humorist, ii
was amply furnished when he applied
the opprobrious designation, Cuckoo .
to Congressman Barrett. That must
have been a rare moment when the
member from Melrose arose in a
rage, only to be denied opportunity to
reply. Gen. Grosvenor's excoriation of
Carl Schurz and his denunciation OF
civil service reform and of reformers
in general, was as nothing beside this.

Whatever condemnation has been Wis
tied upon Senator Gallinger because of
his attitude towards the civil service
must be changed to commentator when
he speaks of pension reforms He has
been speaking thus from the first day
of the session, and it is said that he has
bill in preparation that corrects some
of the admitted abuses of the system.
Let him plump it into the senatorial
arena and exert his admitted strength
to push it through. He is the first to
seem to show the courage of his con-
victions in this matter

One Of the men who have lately
walked up in the morning to find them
selves famous is DR.. George S. stebbins
Of Springfield, the former pension exam

example. His confession of impositions
practiced upon the pension system has
travelled the breadth of the land, and
there has been extraordinary unanimity
in the comments, east and west This
is a new and easy road to fame, and
it is not yet worn out.

MRS Gen. Draper" has got her pic
ture and her diamonds into the papers,
because at the Quirinal her gems are
said to have outshone those of the other
ladies of the diplomatic corps and
rivalled even those of the Italian
queen herself. A contemporary remarks
that this is a genuine triumph for
American diplomacy" Quite likely.
They think good deal of that sort of
thing, over in Europe, and the most
handsomely gowned woman" in the dip
lonatic corps counts for something in
its way.

Washington experts profess to ex-
pect that the Spanish government will
before long ask our government to open
negotiations with the Cubans for the
purpose of procuring an armistice and
proposing terms of settlement The
reason assigned for this is the utter
failure of the autonomy program and
the consequent Encouragement of the
Sagasta ministry. Not only has Capt.
Gen. Blanco made no converts, but he
has not been able even to touch the in
surgents. He has not got near enough
to them to make overtures His failure
is notorious but it is now said that he
has even lost the confidence Of the
royaLsts in the island. A majority OF
the moneyed classes in Cuba might
perhaps welcome a cessation of hostili;
ties upon almost any terms, but the
Sagasta ministry is not at all sure that
the desire for peace in Spain is equally
potent, and time is required to bring
about the favorable opportunity for
asking the United States to exert It's
There isn't much doubt that media
ton" or intervention Of some sort Is
the only means of putting an end to the
strife, but when our government once
gets mixed up in the business, the cri-
teal period for us will have begun
There is no good reason to suppose
that the Cubans will embrace an offer
of autonomy any more eagerly when il
comes from the mouth of an American
diplomat than when it is made only
with the royal sanction. Neither does il
appear that Spain has yet acquired that
humble and contrite heart which would
consent to independence. With the
parties to the desired settlement as
wide apart as ever, and the American
jingoes industriously talking to make
matters worse and to prevent com
promise, there would seem to be no lack
of opportunities for trouble.

Col Alexander Gordon, president of
the Niles Tool Company at Hamilton,
Ohio, is one of those to whom great
vision of industrial prosperity has been
vouchsafed. Hear We what Col. Gordon
saith of the prospects of his own bust
ness:
81 do know this, and that is business
is booming. We are running our mills
night and day, double turn, and cannot
keep up with orders We are getting
orders from Bohemia, Italy, Norway,
Russia, Spain, France and almost every
other European country. I have been
in nearly every country Of Europe with
in the last few months, and I nave been
stunned by the way American goods
have taken precedence over others. AL
most all the street car equipments cleo
trical fittings and general machinery
now being purchased in Europe are of
American manufacture. Europe is buy
ing our wheat at a good price. Surely,
we are in an enYiable position this year,
and think that this country ought to
experience an era of unbounded pros
