The Republican party lias a public policy--it has prin­ ciples that apply to business, and its bbtory is full of its vindications of the dignity of labor, and the illustra­ tions of the divinity of the gospel of freedom."

But time Will thow.--Waukegan OcuettU. mfi- Last June a working man of Chicago, who was satisfied with his Work, bis wages and his employer, was msolute in keeping out of^ one of the labor organizations. Failing to make bin yield, a systematic persecution waa commenced upon bis children. ' J"or their aakea he joined the Kuights Of Labor. The first week he was Mseaeed half his week's wages to sup­ port a strike elsewhere of men whom be kitew nothing. He Is a slave, and be knows it, and be realizes, £as many Men now do and more are coming to iealize, that the most cruel of all ty­ rants ii a mob controlled by selfish, Barrow minded, ignorant men.-- Journal. President Cleveland some time •Inee suspended M. E. Benton Trom the office of Attorney of the United States for the Western District of Mlttouri, on the ground of "pernicious activity" In politics, it appearing that aald Beaten filled a long list of ap- pointsments for campaign speeches, presumably to the neglect of his Official duties. In a letter dated Nov. 10th, addressed to the President through the Attorney General, Mr. Ssstwu expresses LIo desire to make **• plain statement of facts," and pro- •eada to give a history of his campaign labors, pleading guilty to the charge •f making campaign speeches, but Calming that he did not in aay degree . Mglect his official duties during the .time, and that he did not suppose his Course would be taken as a violation of President's orders respecting office holders. In reply to this letter. Pres­ ident Cleveland on the 16th addressed • letter to Mr. Benton In which he *0mmendt the "frank tone" of the latter1* communication, explains his #w» order or "warning" to office holders, gives his reasons for supposing that Mr. Benton's oourse was in viola­ tion or disregard of said order or framing, says: "even with the explana tion given your oourse appears to be JbMghtless and at least subject to Dllticlsm," and then announces that tbcatatementsin Mr. Benton's letter ••d tbe satisfactory discharge of his <uty have Induced him to rescind the •rder of suspension and to reinstate la bis office. The President's la this matter is generally con- las a square back-down, induced of determined opposition ^ jM part of the Missouri Democracy If he Insisted tipoo the order of sus> For Spsaksr of the House M&ny of the newspapers of the Stale have already begun to discuss the question of who will be the Speaker of the House in the next Legislature. Several men have been^ mentioned for the place, but one of the most prominent and popular candidates for that position of honor. Is Hon. Chaa E. Fuller of this city. Different papers have already declared in his behalf and his candidacy Is meeting with general favor throughout the state. In this connection and at this,time, it is hardly necessary to speak of Mr, Fuller's qualifications for the position; we all know, and the state at large knows, that his ability Is undoubted. His brief experience as temporary chairman of the House In the last Assembly gave full eviienoe of this. He possesses to a large degree, all of those elements of character that are of vital necessity to a presiding officer. These characteristics, together with his thorough knowledge of parlimen- tary law and praetlce, gained by years of experience lu both Houses or the Assembly, eminently fit Mr. Fuller to act in this capacity. ^ The position of Speakft Of the House Is one of great responsibility as well as honor, as he has the appoint­ ment of numerous important commit tees that have to do with and in a measure control the^ various merchan* tile. Industrial and agricultural Inter­ ests of the state. The duties of the position then de­ mand a man who is strong, Intelligent, capable and honest; oue who has a wide acquaintance with the members of the Assembly, as well as the public men throughout the state; one who has a thorough knowledge of tbe ex­ isting laws of the state and the various methods of legislation; one who knows how our laws can be Improved and the manner ia which that improvement can be effected, and a man who has gained such knowledge by actual ex­ perience in legislative matters. Such a man is Mr. Fuller, tbe candidate pre­ sented by Boone county. But aside from all other considera­ tions, forgetting for the moment the qualifications of the man, we believe that Mr. Fuller has, in a certain sense, a claim upon the Republicans of Illi­ nois for the strong and loyal light be made as leader of the Republicans In the House In the last Assembly. For services then rendered he deserves the honor now sought, and other things being equal, we believe that it is due to Mr. Fuller that he receives the sup­ port of every Republican and be elected Speaker of the House.--Belvi- cUre Northwestern. Washington Letter. Fiftm Oar Kegalar Correspondent. WASHIKGTOW, D. C., Nov. 26th, 'lM# On two days of the past week all public buildings In Washington were closed. Thanksgiving day, and tbe day of ex-President Arthur's funeral. There was much complaint In conse­ quence from visitors to the city, whose railroad tickets were limited, and who, after coming long distances to see the sights here, .were obliged to go away disappointed because they were de­ barred entrance to the Capitol, White House, Executive Departments, Mu­ seums, etc. * The Congressman who are dally arrlvijg in Washington still discuss the recent election, and many of them lay the Democratic losses upon tbe Administration. Mr.Gibson, a Demo­ cratic RepresenTative from West Virginia, said the reason their vote fell off everywhere was not indiffer­ ence, bnt rebellion, "The Adminis­ tration," added he. has destroyed our organization, and two years more of such work will not leave enough of us to constitute a respectable mob. The Treasury is overflowing with money. It Is pouring in to the amount of over a million dollars a day, and the prospect is that there will be another surplus of over 9100,000,000 at tbe close of tbe present fiscal year, even with a great River and Harbor bill of $14,000,000, with an Increase of pensions of 915,000,000, and an Alabama award judgment of 95,000,000. It has been believed that it would not be possible to rcduce taxation during the short session this winter, but tbe party in control of the House feel that they cannot go into the next cam­ paign without at least making the at­ tempt, and the present condition of the Treasury will be used in Secretary Manning's report as the basis for an argument to Congress In favor of a reduction of tariff taxes. Tbe Presi­ dent will, of course eudorse the posi­ tion of tbe Secretary In his message. The Administration Is very happy Over the financial situation, ^t knows that the country Is starting on an ers of business prosperity, and it expects to a certain extent to receive the credit as well as to reap the benefit of this prosperity. A proposition to re­ duce taxes will be very popular, and It would not be in kepping with Mr, Cleveland's luck if there were not a business boom during his term. So look out for tbe Treasury report this year. Its burden will be a (reduction of taxes. At the Capitol a quorum of the Ap­ propriation Committee Is at work preparing the money bills, so that Congress may get down to business as soon as it reassembles. The work of improving the Capitol Itself never ends, butf goes on and will go on forev­ er. Preparations are now being made to fill the niches in the wall of tbe Senate Chamber with the busts of the Vice Presidents. The first five to be placed will be Vice-President Hamlin, Wheeler,, Arthur, Adams, and Jeffer­ son. The bust of Hannibal Hamlin, th,» Republican Vice President, will be made by a sculptor sin Maine, °r Mr. Adams will be uia«e in Massachusetts, Jefferson's will come from Richmond, Virginia, and the Arthur and Wheeler busts will be York, Each sculptor will be paid 9809 for hia work.
