A dav or two before the adjournment managed to get before that body a paper | reflecting satirically upon the work of | the demoeratic majority, which imme- | diately started & very lively breeze on that side of the house. It was an oppor tunity for the shrewd and subtle Randali d he concluded a stump speech landa tory of the majority with the following “When we canie here there were thousands and_ thousands of idle people 1 the United States, but to day thereis not, to my judgment, a labor ing man who wants to work who cannot work; and that comes in a large from the confidence which this house and | democratic exccutive have given to the American people.” This is another illustration of what an absurd and reck- less demn; samuel J. Randall is, yet sueh power of this man with the democratic members that they ap- plauded his ridiculous « tions as if | they were unquestionable truthis, It is not more than a month since Ran- war against Morrison j y of the democrats of the house in their effort to seeure tarifl form which would have given relief to the people and really benefitted numer- ous industries, and he led a factional fight which defeated that effort. In this action Mr. Randall and his thrty-four followers procluimed that they had no confidence in the majority of their party | in the house, so far the tariit is con cerned, Having Killed oft the Morrisor measure, Mr. Randall brought in a hillef lis own framing, carciully constructed s0as notto prejudice Pennsylvania in- terests, and the majority retaliated by kill- ing that. Here wore nice examples of barmony and mutuality of purpose among the democrats of the house to commend that body to the confidence of the people. Later on Mr. Randall vigor- ously supported the surplus resolution, and a m attucking in the course of the debate the tinancial policy of the administration as inimical to the interests of the people. The resolution prevailed by an ove wheliming vote, which was sceepted by the country as a declaration of “‘want of confidence” in the treasury policy of the administration, which unquestionabl it was, Changed and modified by the sc ate, the resolution finally reached the vresident, and he showed his regard for the wisdom and wishes of congress by allowing the measure to die in his hands. A striking evidence, this, of the concord and good feeling subsisting between the democratic executive and the democratie house to giye them a claim to vopular confiden 1f these examples are not suflicient, they may be supplemented by the fact that the president vetoed seventy- seven bills which originated in the house, and that he oflicially charged that body with carelessness and indifference in re- speet of certain legislation. But we might go on to an indefinite extent in supplying facts from the record of the lower branch of congress to show the utter absurdity of Randall’s claim that that body had given the people confi- dence, while his own course shows the hollowness and insincerity of his vefer- ence to the executivs As to his statement regard- ing the labor of the country, 1t is doubtless true that there were more people idle last December than there are at this time, just as there will be a greater number of people unem- ployed next midwinter than are now idle. It is o matter of seasons, which aflect many thousands of workmen in numer- ons branches of industry. But when My, Randall implied that there is not at pre ent any enforced idleness, and stated his belief that there is not a laboring man who wants to work who cannot secure work, he was guilty of uttering what he must have known to be faise, and what wits an insult to te: nds of hon- est toilers in this land who vainly seek employment and whos wtions and hardships should have shiclded them from the heartiess imputation of being idlers from choice. It is speetfully submitted to Mr Randall and all demagogues of his stripe, that they misjudge the veople if they ex- peat to advance the intere; of their party by such misrepresentation, hollow pretense and falsehood as are embraced in the above extract, and which wiil doubtless be most abundantly dealt out in the fall campaign soon to begin, The intelligant masses understand that under any cireumstances executives and con- gresses haye comparatively little to do with influencing and regulating the busi- ness interests of the nation, and they are utterly ineapable of asserting even their limited power when not in full harmony and agreement respecting the few cavdi- nal prineiples that have relation to the country’s financial, commercial and in- dustrizl affaire. *Jocation” has for the eable line, and half a dozen more will probably be made be- AxoTnER nounc been an. fore the cat is allowed to jump out of the bag.

St. Louis Republican, The cold-blooded statistics of the in- ternal revenue bureau furnish us with the paradox that the consumption of whisky is increasing and diminishing. The entire amount consumed in the country in the last fiscal year was 70,700,- 000 gallons—an increase of 1,600,000 gallons over the consumption of the preceding year. Nevertheless the per capita consumption has fallen off in the last sixteen years nearly onc-half. In 1870 the ratio was two gallons for every soul of the population—and as women and children do not drink at all, and a great many men dvink very liftle, this shows that the average consumption to the regular drinkers must have been eight to twelve gallops & year. In the one gallon und a pint to @very soul of the population, so thagy while” the total quantity consumed Bus iincrensed, and is steadily incregeing, = with the population, the 4 capita _ gon- sumption has be reduced nea one-half.
