T iie great peace jubilee is open in
Chicago. It may be a little prema
ture, but if any serious hitch should
occur in tiie negotiations at Faris, it
can quickly be converted into an
emergency demonstration of hostili

Anything in the nature of a do
nation is sure to strike the Spaniard

T he legislature did right in a boi

work of a little honest railroad legis

the people’s interest.
T he military necessity of the
Nicaragua canal has been so forcibly
demonstrated by the recent war,
that it will hereafter be difficult for
a candid mind to ascribe anything
but unpatriotic motives to a member
of congress opposing the immediate
building of the canal.
W as there ever another such eco
nomical body as the late special ses
sion? Why, the members individ
ually took charge of the cuspidors,
waste-paper baskets, ink-stands, and
stationery not used, and are keeping
them for use at the regular session
in January. That’s right.
T he statement is made on correct
authority, that the distance from
New York to San Francisco via the
Nicaragua canal would be less than
by any of the present transconti
nental railway routes. The shortest
rail line is via the Northern Pacific,
3237 miles; by the Nicaragua canal
the Pacific could be reached in 2159
miles. The cruise of the Oregon,
which occupied more than two
months, could be made in less than
three weeks.

Democrats, as well as republicans,
appear to think that the next senate
will be controlled by the republicans.
A gain of two or three seats will put
that body in republican hands. The
chances are that the republicans will
maintain their hold on the house, al
though their majority, which is now
in the neighborhood of fifty, may be
diminished slightly. The congress
ional canvass thus far has not been
active on either side. Still, a good
deal of interest is likely to be aroused
before election day comes. Confi
dence prevails at the headquarters
of the republican campaign com
mittee. The confidence, too, is sup
plemented by earnest and intelligent
work. Effective efforts will be made
to get the full republican vote out.
This means v ictory. Whenever a
heavy vote is polled throughout the
country, the republicans win. On a
heavy and honest vote, the republi
cans have been in a majority in the
United States constantly since I860.

T he one culpability for which the
legislature has to answer, is the item
in the appropriation bill granting
full pay to the holdup members of
the last legislature. 11 is, however,
still a question of statutory construc
tion, in the opinion of one of the best
lawyers in the state, whether those
men who refused to take the oath of
office and qualify as members, can
draw their pay. They were pop
ulists, though, and the present sec

struing, is something in the same
line. If the beneficiaries were re
