The Problem In Iowa. Tho recent oleutions iu Iowa have shown that.tho Republicans of that State are in a serious quandary. The experiene* of three suooeeeiv# elections proves that they can not carry th* State on the prohibition iesue. T eir members of tho Begisiaturo, however, have boon elected under the moat binding pledges to maintain this law. Should they join with tho Democrats for its repeal they would violate those pledgee, and those of the Republican! who baliave la prohibition would go over at eae* to th* third party. Should they ceatiuue to maintain th* prohibitory atatutee, then enough of the anti-prohibi-tlofi Republicans will vote with th* Demoeats to defeat the Republican party. They are ia that ooodltten which is elegantly described as “between th* devil and deep tea"

Toodlea In Trouble.
The New York World has done its most eccentric thing in a recent editorial, which it well entitles “A Question for th* Futnre." It concedes that to* drift of opinion, a* indicated in the press uno* th* recent election, is setting strtmrir ia favor of Cleveland’s nomination for the presidency. It concedes “the hold which to* ex-Pres-ident bas upon the confidence of toe people; the enthusiasm which his presence

The new Art Institute, save the Chicago Herald, will occupy on# of the finest sites in the world. The great lake will be east of it, the massive and superb public library building will be its western neighbor, Lake Park will spread its lawns and paths south of it and in time the ruia of tbe railroad station north will giv* wav to a worthy structure. The easUrn front of the city is to become a marvel of elegance and beauty. Th* wise policy that baa thus far characterized the administration of the Art Institute will be perpetuated. It will be hereafter, as it has been from the beginning, th* institution dearest to the people. In its galleries fine art will ennoble tbe taste and inform tbe culture of the city. Tbe poorest will be on a par with the richest in its wealth. Admieaion will be charged, as it should be, certain days in th* week. Otosrs, like Saturday and Sunday, will be free, as they ought to be.
Vh© Situation in Tennessee. Tbe Governor of Tennessee has a difficult task before him. The situation in th* eastern part of toe State is on* of armed revolt against th* Government. Not only have tbe miners defied th# law, but they are sustained and re-enforced by farmers, tradesmen and practically the whole community. When the miners, driven to desperation by the employment of oonvict labor, mad* their first hostile demonstration, they were appeased by promhes that their wrongs should be righted though the proper legal measures. After a long period of patient waiting on their part, the Legislature from whom the help was expected, instead of affording tb* promised relief, sustained the convict lease system and passed additional measures for its enforcement. These miners Know no home but these Tennessee mountains, no occupation but taking the coal frpm their rooky sides. Legal means having failed, they have resorted to mob law, burned the stockades and released the five hundred convicts who, under the protection of the State, were depriving their families of the necessities of life. According to bis oath of office Governor Buchanan is boond to enforce the laws. These convicts have been leased by the State to tho contractors, who now demand the protection of th* Government in carrying out this contract. The Governor i* compelled to announoe that th* convicts, as fast as captured, will be returned to the mines and protected in their work, if necessary, by military force.-- The leaders of , the miners' rebellion will be arretted and punished. It matters not that the sympathies of the people ate with honest labor, that th* ■oldiers are on the side of th* miners, that the Governor himself recognizes the gross injustice of the conyict-lease system. There it is, a part of tbe statutes, and it must be enforced. Meanwhile winter approaches, and the miners are without work. It will* not be surprising if the situation in the Tennessee mountains for th* next few months ehould furnish abundant material for tho pen of a Charles Egbert Craddock.
Vlco-Proetdon to. Tho raff-scuff material which is pushing itself for the vice-presidency and has been doing so of late years, ought to attract th* attention of the people in the wav of warning and reformation. The author* of The Federalist leave students in no doubt that it was intended to make th* office of Vice-President on* of very high importance, honor, authority and emolument—one to which the foremost citizen of the Nation might aspire; on* to hold which would alone confer lasting fame. These intention*, it ia hardly necessary to say, ar* not fulfilled. Th* vicepresidency it not sought for by men of ability. It presents that carious thing which is by no means rare in the bod/ politic of a place, tho seeking of which is almost certain preeamption of th* seeker's unfitness. In this case it ia beeause politically the vicepresidency has next to no power, and no prospects, excepting always an awful contingency. To seek for it, therefore, advances in a way a sort of presumption of pure place-hunting. The New York Press, discussing the uneatiefactory condition into which the office of the vice-presidency has fallen, says: Th* remedy? It is plain enough. Retorn to the practice of early days. Live up to the theory of tho Constitution and treat tho two office* as of nearly equal dignity. Above all, taka away the notion that a vice-president is never to be thought of as a presidential possibility unless in tbe event of a President's death. What was the first “combination," as the word is now? George Washington and John Adams. What was the second combination? John Adams and Thomas Jefferson. After Jefferson no vicepresident was ever elected President excepting Martin Van Buren, who bald second place with Andrew Jackson, and was designated by “Old Hickory” as his successor. Surely, an office which John Adams and Thomas Jefferson did not disdain to accent ought act to be scoffed at by any statesman In our time, and would not be if it were oac* more .understood that vice presidents ar* more likely tbaa otherwise to be. mad* of presidential Umber. ^ There is a farther underlying idea, and that is that th* Vie#-President should be ebeean la harmony with th* President, nan should aot bo presented a aaaa far
If Mr. CiesveLand should be elected next year would it be possible or prudent to renominate him in 1896, in view of the unwritten law against a third term for President? Would not a change of leaders then imperil euccess? Are not these questions
worth considering?
If the World wiil take our word for it, they are cot. They are sillier than midsummer matinees or th* lunacy of a campaign. The Democrats have first to sleet Mr. Cleveland or somebody in 1892. An attempt to make as a consideration against Mr. Cleveland iu 18d2 the fact that he will not be eligible in 1896 ia the malice of nonsense from every point of view. The idea of a journal whoss party is yet wandering at large and feeding on husks, discussing who shall be ita candidate a year beuce in the light of hia fitness as a self-successor four years after, ia a little too asinine for argument. The Democrats have their hands full of preaeut duties. They have a large majority In Congress, and large majorities are likely to be unruly, to meet and make a record with before tbe chance for *92 appears, to agy nothing of ’96; and that Congress may maka sad bavoo with *92’s
chance*.
The Adianoe Satisfied. The New York Morning Journal has a custom of printing in its Sunday edition signed editorials, each being on some topic, tbe writer on which is supposed to speak as one having authority. In last Sunday’s Journal on* of * these editorials, entitlsd “The Alliance Satisfied,” was signed by L. F. Livingston, Congressman from Georgia. It reads: The recent election resulted to the entire satisfaction of tho Farmers’ Alliance. Nothing could have better demonstrated the fact that we are moving ahead slowly and accnmulating gradually a tremendous normal strength than tho results obtained at tbe polls on November 8. We confined ourselves largely to local Issues, and it stands as an historic mile-post in the progress of our movemsut that in one State we polled absolutely mere votes than either of the other parties, and more votes than we had polled when united with the Democrats on the occasion of the immortal land-slide. I, of course, refer to Kansas. The results of the election there, as well as in other Utates, demonstrate that the discontent of the farmer is no less to-day than yesterday, and his interests in securing n change are advocated with tbe same intensity. We cam look for no change in the humor of the farmer, and in his great work of organization and agitation, until the legislatures of the different States and Congress listen to his demands and right his wrongs. I believe that when the champions of the reform movement close their session in Indianapolis they will have demonstrated to the people 04 the United States that the iron of their stern purpose is at the same white heat as when the movement was first projected. The people will find that tbe experience ot toe past year baa tended to coalesce more nearly the elements that were hooted as discordant at the timeof tbe Ocala convention. We have become thoroughly acquainted with one another, and have rooted out as far as possible the weaknesses of factions, and stand to-day with a solid front for honest Isgislation in the interests of all the people and against the dictates of tariff-protected manufacturers and political demagogues.
Tan New York World beads the society page in its last Sunday’s edition as “Society en vllle.’’ This recalls the old story of a young man in Cincinnati who got a reply from a younc lady in Covington accepting his invitation to go somewhere, that, at th* bottom of the page, after his name, contained the words “en ville.” In greet distress he went to ' a friend to know what “en vill^' meant. “Oh, that’s all right," said his friend; “‘en ville’ is French lor ' get a hack. 1 It was simply a delicate way the young lady had of letting you know she didn’t want to walk." On th* appointed evening to* young man presented himself in gorgeous array, also in a hack. The latter caused some' surprise, and finally a remark, bec&uke the young man was struggling for a bank account which he might with fair face ask the lady to ghare. “Why, you said ‘get a hack,’” said tbe young man in a somewhat aggrieved tone to the query. After much explanation the meaning ot “en ville" was made plain. But the young man never bore a grudge against his friend, for other things were made plain, and he and the young lady ware forever satisfied for “en ville," to mean “get a hack" in Cincinnati French, seeing where it led to. Wb must remind forgetful people that every communication to a newspaper, to insure publication, must be signed with the name and address of the writer, “not necessarily for publication, but as a guaranty of good faith." A communication from “a resident property owner of North Indianapolis,” which lacks those qualities, suggest this restatement of an old fundamental rule. Thebe is mnch complaint, and sometimes with cause, of the rudeness and incivility of street-car conductors, but the latter never got a chance to tell their side of th* story. Their conduct is not entirely without provocation. It might also be suggested that the examples furnished by th* passengers in their treatment of each other are not always of the most inspiring nature.

Only three golden eagles were ever shot in Maine, so far as known. The last of these was killed last week in a field a few miles east of Bangor. The eagle was discovered feasting upon a lamb by a farmer. Two foxes came along and attempted to join in the feast, but the greai bird fought them off and continued its meal until the farmer put a stop to tbe banquet with his shotgun. The eagle, which is a splendid specimen, with wing# spreading six feet, was taken to
