The Stock Boom.

Various causes are cited to ac-
count for the sudden jump of stock
market prices and the rush of buy
ers, with total yesterday OF 1885,
900 shares changing hands. One is
that peace talk is so persistent that
a feeling prevails that there must be
something moving in that direction.
Another is that the Treasury is pro-
claiming marked domestic business
Improvement. A third is that the
speculative public has at last grown
impatient with the sluggish market,
and has sought 70 force action by a
sudden dash upon General Apathy's
position. Whether any one or all Of
these causes operated. the phenome-
non OF booming market stands in
striking contrast with the long mac
tivity, which. while il has not harmed
business in itself, has nevertheless
stood as depressing symptom of a
low state of business. A booming
stock market will not Of itself make
good times. but it will help by arous-
ing lethargic factors and stimulating
confidence. Peace in Europe NAV not
be within six months range as pre-
dicted, yet the steadily recurrent sup-
gestion of its immincnce must be
viewed as hopeful sign.

Daley and Whitman.

Naturally, District Attorney Daley
OF Indiana is mentioned for political

situation in the Hoosier state is, lust

Peace Talk.

In no war of modern times has
peace como suddenly, without GER
tain amount of preliminary discus
sion, preceded by apparently un-
founded gossip. 1t has become al
most a fixed law of conflict that there
should be first a period of mere
rumor, second a period of tentative
and semi-secret negotiations and
third a period of actual and avowed
negotiations before the actual truce
and meeting of peace commissioners

Mr.. Watterson on Economy.

Mr.. Watterson, discussing econ
omv. and repeating sentiments which
appeared in his newspaper a short
time ago. says:
"Oh. for an hour OF Holman. But
the watchdog OF the Treasury stunt
has gone out OF business. Nothing
now but costly billion-dollar
Congresses and cheap. coon-dog poll

II never accomplished anything but

and true and able. with capacity for
large usefulness in Congress. Judge
Holman, through some sort OF obses-
sion. spoiled what might have been
a distinguished career. He seemed
TO see a job in every proposition
for an appropriation. and fought all
alike. 1t was in that way he acquired
his sobriquet. He barked at every
thing and everybody. until his bark
served only to amuse or annoy. It
saved the country little if anything
II cost him much While watching
the Treasury he missed opportuni-
ties for important services, and
toward the end of his career was ex-
hibited in debate as no rigid econo-
mist when his own state and district
were concerned. He labored for his
own. and accepted his share OF
what was going.
This is not to deride economy, or
those who preach it. Care should
be taken in the preparation of all
appropriation bills, and scrutiny ex-
ercised in all disbursements of pub
lie money. Presumably, too, the
Sixtyfourth Congress will show an
improvement on the work of the Six
ty-third in this particular. Criticism
of the latter body for extravaganza
has had an effect on public sentiment
and, besides, presidential campaign
approaches.
But the democratic party is better
informed now on the subject of econ.
omy than when it obtained complete
control of the government, two years
ago. 1t came into power partly upon
an allegation that the republicans had
been wasting at least three hundred
million dollars annually in appropria-
tions. The allegation was ridiculous
and the promise based upon it could
not be redeemed. No such waste
had taken place, and no such saving
was even attempted. No such saving
will be attempted by the new Con-
gress, as much better informed as
that will be than the old.
Mr.. Watterson should not pledge
his party too deeply. He knows the
situation much better than the aver.
age politician or spellbinder. He has
served IN Congress, and helped tc
make the wheels revolve. He is no
cheeseparer. His half century o.
public life-the greater part as Z
leader of the democracy-has taugh,
him both the size Of the country ane
the necessity of its support as lust,
and growing giant.

Envy.

You mustn't feel envy, although you
may hear
OF pleasures alluring, so far yet 50
near.
Somebody is sitting with hook and
with line,
And watching the play of the rip
pies that shine;
Somebody is loafing along In the
sun,
Where the birds lightly warble till
daylight is done;
Somebody is doing along in dray,
All careless of fate, since the horse
knows the way;
Somebody sends far DER the fields
with a will
The ball that he taps with such con-
fdent skill;
Somebody ds, is hearing, while idly
The tap Of the waves on the side Of
the boat.
There are hundreds whom fortune
has destined to dwell
Afar from the call of the whistle and
bell,
Afar from the mart with its seurry-
ing scene,
Afar from each buzzing and clicking
machine.
You mustn't feel envy, good people
all say,
But it's hard to avoid on 4 sunshiny

DIVISION OF TEXAS.

a new and threatening movement
for the division of the state ha'
sprung UP N Texas; and Texas
papers see great danger from it. The
new movement was brought before
the Texas legislature few days ago
when Senator Johnson introduced a
dill providing for the creation of the
state of Jefferson out of the north.
western counties. The proposition
has earnest support in that section
which has been ignored badly treated
and Disseminated against. If the leg
islature approves the Johnson bill

OUR COAST GUARD.

The bill creating the United States
coast guard, signed by President vii
son last week, reunites the revenue
cutter and lifesaving services, which
were divorced in 1873. The new
coast guard will discharge the funo-
tons of both, operating in peace I'M
der the secretary of the treasury and
IN war under the secretary of the
navy. The merging of the two ser
vices, at a time when addition or mul-
duplication of bureaus" is prevail
ing fashion, was urged as a step TO.
ward greater efficiency. The two ser.
vices are rather closely related and
the advocates of the specialized ''bu-
reau" system doubtless feel that their
consolidation does no violence to the
theory OF iasuring efficiency by b,i.
reau specialization.
Though historic department OF
the federal service loses its identity
under the new law, the coast guard
should make good the promises of its
proponents. The life-saving service
seems certain to benefit, since it's
members, as a part of the new ser.
vice, gain longevity pay for re-e1list-
ments, clothing allowance, medical
attention, and place upon the retired
list after thirty years service. The
government gains, by reason of pro-
vision constituting the coast guard a
naval reserve. The revenue cutter
service has always been regarded as
q part Of tihe military establishment,
and its members have acquitted them
selves with credit. we believe, in ali
the country's foreign wars since the
services creation, in 1890 Addition
OF the hfe-saving force brings the
trained coast guard reserve mp to a
strength of something over 1000 men,
all OF whom should prove. thanks to
their exceptional training, valuable
aids to the national defense
