From the way Governor Mathews is knocking out the future prospects of the wily Daniel and his co-con-spirators it is not improbable that the masses of the democratic party contemplate squaring matter next round by ousting Voorhees and planting the now popular governor in the senate. Their mere contemplation will be about as far as the matter will go, however, as the republicans will attend to the next
senator from Indiana.

If out of all this rant and wrangle should come the complete demoralization and disintegration of the democratic party, while it is verv expensive still it may be worth all it costs. But soon the political campaign of 1894 will open in every state, district and county. Who will be lieve the democratic leaders then? Who will be duped this year into support of men whose incompetence and dishonest}- is so well under-
stood?
The vote of 1894 will not only be a revelation, but it will be a
prophecy as well.
It will reveal the strength of American patriotism and philan-

An esteemed correspondent writes us a letter to say that “whatever certain leaders may think or do, the great body of the democratic party wants the pledges of the Chicago platform carried out.” Of these pledges the only one of supreme consequence that now remains is the repeal of the McKinley tariff law, and the enactment in its place of a system of tariff dut-
ies for revenue only.
Congress met in December last: the president mentioned the subject in his message. He has talked

The senator may be able to square himself with Terre Haute hut there is considerable of the state of Indiana that is not embraced within the limits of Vigo county that the tall Sycamore will rattle around in a long time ere he gets square.

Congress has been in session for almost a year and not a single promise lias been fulfilled. But the threats to overturn the existing order of things, and the power to carry those threats into execution, has closed up the factories of the country; has turned out the laboring man that depended on ins daily toil for existence for himself and his family; has cut off the demand for the products of the farm, so that the farmer receives no reward for all his toil; has bankrupted all those who were heavily in debt; has so reduced the income of the government that the public debt is rapidly increasing, and the gold reserve is being exhausted, and lias in audition produced such a deep and wide discontent that the C. S. finny is being called on to suppress mobs in our great centers of popu-
lation.
Instead of providing a remedy foi the evils they have created, in-
their
pretensions, we cannot recall one of them all who lias shown that he j understands that pledge of his party, and is resolved upon its fill filment: or that lie has ever understood or has ever really favored its
fulfilment.
Neither can we recall one of them who said frankly and manlike before the election that he did not accept tlie platform, and would not be hound by it. So far as we are aware, there is not one, not a single one. Yet they keep up their empty chatter about keeping the pledges like so many parrots; and our correspondent writes to tell us what the great body of the democracy wants in the
premises!
Was that part of the platform anything except base fraud and humbug, intended to delude as many voters as could he caught by it; or what was it? And what will the honest citizens of the country say and do when they come to understand fully the facts of this strange, this unprecedented ease?

Says the Lafayette Courier Presuming on the misleading report that Hon. Henry Watterson is in Europe for a brief summer vaca tion, a Philadelphia newspaper makes the broad and libelous charge that he has deserted the star-eyed goddess of reform and “is now dallying with the pretty maids of Switzerland.” Colonel Watterson is, of course, righteously indignant at this reckless misrepresentation, and in conclusion of a characteristically turgid denial of the allegations, witli numerous corrosive shafts of scorn showered upon the
agitator, he says: “But, it he were in Switzer mid, lie would not be ‘dallying wiih the pretty maids,' because he is not that sort of a per son, because he is too old tor that sort of foolishness, and because there are no pretty maidens in Switzerland to dally with. Nor has lie deserted tlie star-eyed one; although it is true that she is in mourning and has gone into retirement. The fact is, the relations of the goddess ami the editor of tlie Courier Journal are best described bv the words of the mournful ditty, which reads: “Down by the river side. Down by the river sid , she sinlifsl and he hIkIohI. And then they sat side by side. Down by the riverside.’ ” A wkitkr in the New York San declares that the paper burned up bv Senator Gorman at the time President Cleveland was a candidate the first time for the presidency was a document written bv Mr. Cleveland on the Maria Halpin scandal, and which that gentleman as the manager of Mr. Cleveland’s campaign committed to the flames rather than have it made public as was the intention of Mr. Cleveland. The incident left a sore spot between lliese two democrats which cropped out in Mr. Gorman’s speech against Mr. Cleveland the other day. Senator Gorman thought, and evidently still thinks, that Mr. Cleveland’s st atement of the Halpin scandal would have brought with it his defeat—sure and certain. Very likely. Thk Bannku 1 ixiks cannot help commenting on the decided difference in the reception accorded Ku gene Debs Thursday at his home in Terre Haute and the one given him upon his return from his victory in the Great Northern trouble. In the latter named he was met by bands and an enthusiastic populate. In last night’s reception a dull thud took the place of the enthusiasm of several months ago. How have the mighty fallen! A big railroader at Danville, 111, told Debs what lie (the railroader) thought of the “dictator” for cans-1 ing liiin to lose his job. Debs escaped a good trouncing only by the aid of assistance.

The McKinley law is gaining friends rapidly; in fact, it is on earth for the second time time. There was a while in its career that it was lied about so systematically and thoroughly that itsuffeied. In over one year’s attempt at breaking it down and substituting something in its place, the people have seen how the most astute and brilliant men of the democratic partv have made failures. They have wisely concluded that the McKinley law was misrepresented in the hours of its adversity, and they are therefore flocking to its support in droves those who would not touch it before this congress began experimenting. NViiat the New England trade will be worth to the Nova Scotia coal syndicate can he estimated from the price of its stock. The Dominion Coal Co., of which Henry C. Whitney is president, is capitalized at $ 18,000,000. As it consolidates the business of ten local companies it is a syndicate or trust. The stock, of which Mr. Whitney took !10,<i()0 shares at $10, is now worth $21 50. Nearly $350,000 profit on that deal can be set down to the reduction of that duty, not to an advance in duty, which will open tlie New England market to Nova Scotia coal.
The Morion railway has filed suit in a Chicago court against the city of Chicago for five dollars damage to a freight ear during tlie lute strike. The ease will serve as a test action, and the outcome will be eagerly watched by the other roads.
