For some weeks there have been many rumors of such a possibility and no denials, but it was not until within the past two or three days that democratic members gen- erally had their eyes opened to the fact that the man who did more than all others to defeat Cleveland’s renomination was reconciled to his elected chief and would fight his battles on the floor of the House. ‘The conversion, if real, and there seems to be mo reason for doubting its sincerity, is worthy of more than passing note, for by it the brightest of Tammany’s host has done one of two important things—elther said farewell to the organization in which his prominence was on the highest plane or moves ‘as a leader of men who realize that an anti-Cleveland fight cannot be success- fully conducted for some time to come. The transformation is extraordinary but cred- itable. As one of Tammany’s big chiefs Mr. Cochran would occupy a closely cir- eumscribed sphere of decidedly questionable or unquestionable politics; as an independ- ent democrat, in harmony with the best Principles of his party and broad enough and sturdy enough to be patriotic rather than partisan, Mr. Cockran may easily achieve greatness such as is far beyond the tiger's reach. ———_++-+___ Sensibly philanthropic ideas often ema mate from strange and unexpected sources; proven by the fact that Gov. Altgeld con- templates assembling the Illinois tegislature im extra session to deal with the serious question, “What shall be done for the vast number of unemployed men in Iltnois?” To this query the governor has an answer all ready. He says “Give them employment as builders and repairers of public roads.” Up to this time Gov. Altgeld has been de- cidedly unpopular with the great majority of the American people, and it is casily probable that very many of them will never forgive his pro-anarchical utterances and endeavors, but if he should succeel in put- ting his roadmaking proposition into opera- tion he should receive his due of credit for along step in advance. In I!taols, as in all or nearty all of the states and territor- jes, the number of men who exist in en- forced idleness 1s extremely large. A con- siderable proportion is dependent upon charity for a sufficiency of daily bread upon which to sustain life. Within a little while, unless there be immediate an] marked iin- Provement in commercial conditions, the charitable support will become exhausted and suffering increase until all cver the land mobs of hungry men will beget dis- turbances the like of which this country Rever saw.

From the Chicago Journal. It is one evidence of the advancement of the Indian toward civilization that a dis- turbance upon a_reservation, such as now going on in Wisconsin and Minnesota, is now called a riot and not “an Indian rising.” Like most riots, the existing dis- order is attributable to whisky. ———+++____.
