2 THE- ST. JOSEPH GAZETTE, FRIDAY MORNING AUGUST 24. Arthur's Chances. American Register. The question as to the renomination of President Arthur is attracting wide attention in Republican circles.

It is an unmistakable fact that there is a deep current of sentiment in the party favorable to the nomination, and it is also true that there is great doubt in the same direction whether the nomination in question would meet with public approval. The case presents a strange anomaly, a singular mixture of preference and distrust preference for him as a candidate in certain contingencies, and distrust of his ability to make a successful race. The fact seems to be, that just at present, pending the result of the yet undecided fall elections, there is no very great reaching after the presidential plum from the Republican of the conceded doubtful issue of the fall struggle. In this temporary lull the friends recting the same that we have made criticisms, and we hope to be the means of helping to make the project a success. Philanthropy is a new field for Colonel Donnell and we only wanted to give him the benefit of the Gazette's long experience and devotion to that industry.

The Gazette does not forget the fact that Colonel Donnell has the right to give his money or keep it in his pocket, and that it is very indelicate for the beneficiary to have much to say about the amount or. the manner of donating, but notwithstanding all this there are certainly some questions in the matter about which it is proper to speak. There is one feature about the enterprise which is not appreciated by Colonel Donnell, and that is this: you can't build a Baptist college with Methodist or Presbyterian capital or enterprise. It is to be regretted that this is true, but it is the history of the country. If the Colonel had made his proposition direct to theBap-tist people and let the denomination call upon the people of St Joseph the city would have responded liberally, and all the present friction would have been avoided.

Or if. the donation had been offered to St. Joseph as a people, this people could have enlisted all the RAILROAD TIME-TABLE. Arrival and Departure of Trains at the Union Depot (St. Joseph Time.) On and after 8.00 a.

Editob Gazette The free trade portion of the Democracy in their assaults upon Mr. Randall, charge that if elected Speaker he will organize the committee on Ways and Means in the interests of the high protectionists. This flimsy and untenable charge is in keeping with the balance of the charges made against him and only serves to show that his opponents in their desperation to accomplish his defeat will lean upon any staff, no difference how weak and unstable it may be. It is fortunate he has a record upon this point, and when scrutinized it puts forever at rest this charge. When first elected speaker at the second session of the Forty-fourth Congress the committees had all been appointed by his predecessor, and it was not until he was chosen to preside over the Forty-fifth Congress that he formed the committees.

Let us see how he performed this work; it may be an indication of his future action. Of the standing committees of the house there were forty-two, and he gave the West and South thirty-four chairmanships. On the committee on ways and means he placed seven from the South and West, and four from the East. The following shows the composition of the committee: Committee of Ways and Means Fernando Wood, of New York; J. Randolph Tucker, of Virginia; Milton Sayler, of Ohio; William M.

Bobbins, of North Carolina; Henry R. Harris of Georgia; Randall L. Gibson, of Louisiana; James Phelps, of Connecticut; William D. Kel-ley of Pennsylvania; James A. Garfield, of Ohio; Horatio C.

Burchard, of Illinois; Nathaniel P. Banks; of Massachusetts. Does this look like a packed committee? Does this bear the marks of having been packed in the interests of the high protectionists? The chairman, the late distinguished Fernando Wood, was never classed a high tariff man, but was widely known as a tariff reformer. He was an earnest advocate of tariff revision. This committee reported a bill revisin'g the tariff, and it was not the fault of the committee, or the chairman, or the speaker that it did not receive the sanction of the house.

The charge is frivolous and cannot stand for a moment in the light of investigation. The more you examine the record of Randall the better he appears as a national Democrat. If elected he will not simply represent the West, nor the East, nor the South, nor the North, but will act for the interest of the whole country, and so conservative and able will be his course that it will add many electoral votes to our cause in the next national contest. The war that is being made upon him will make his election an imperious party necessity. Defeat him because he stands with the Democrats of the East on the tariff, and I would not give a feather for the chance of Democratic success in '84.

All this talk about a Western man, or a Southern man for speaker is the sheerest nonsense. What the party will demand is a national man, no difference what section he hails from. We think with the great body of our party that the tariff should be revised, but as to the policy of attempting such a difficult task until the Democracy can accomplish it, we recognize there, is a wide difference of opinion in our ranks. The position your paper has taken upon this phase of the question seems to us eminently correct. We believe that it is the line of policy our.

party will pursue. Nobody believes that any line agreed upon by the party would pass the senate and receive executive sanction. The fact is, under the most favorable auspices, it is a difficult task to frame a bill that will become a law. When the pruning knife of reduction is placed at the roots of the various interests, the men representing the localities where they are situated come to the defense of their particular sections. When you attack the wool interest, all who represent constituencies engaged in its production are in arms.

This is growing to be one of the colossal industries of the country. Ask Ohio, California and Texas, what they think of it. When the iron interest is touched the Pennsyl-vanian is aroused. When lead is reached the Missourian comes to the front and enters his protest. So on to the end of the list, no matter how eloquently they may have harangued the people from the hustings on the beauties of free trade, they heed the voice of their constituents and stand for their local interests.

You are making a splendid fight for Randall and Democracy, and your influence is being felt through the entire state. You can safely defy his opponents to point to a line in his record that renders him unworthy of being called to any, even the highest position in the country. Reventje Tariff.

The United States at this time has the best and most satisfactory currency ever known in the history of the government, but there are yet some objectionable features, and room for improvement.

The present situation has been secured by years of disastrous experiments, and is one of the most important questions "which can be presented to the American people. The American Register discusses this question, recommending with good argument, that gold and silver certificates should be issued instead of national bank notes. A variable standard of value, producing contractions and expansions, and periodical 1 revulsions in the monetary system, is one of the greatest of national evils. To prevent this we propose gold and silver Treasury certificates as the paper money of the country. The paper circulation of the -national banks are mere credits, promises to pay money; and the volume of the circulation will be contracted or expanded according to the speculative projects of those who issue it.

We have maintained, and can maintain upon incontestable facts, the following propositions: First That the change from the paper circulational of the national banks to gold and silver certificates can be made without any interference with the amount of the moneyed facilities now existing in the business of the country. Second That it would cost nothing but the trifling expense of issuing the certificates, and not as much as the paper money issued by the national banks. Third That it would afford the government, instead of the banks, the profits arising from the destruction or loss of the, paper money which can not be returned for redemption. Fourth That it would furnish a more ample and larger paper circulation than now exists in the country, and indeed, a paper money circulation which would circulate in the ports of all countries with which we trade. Fifth.

And finally, we have 6hown that the paper money consisting of gold and silver treasury certificates would be subject to no expansions or contractions, would save the country from the disasters of periodical paper money revolu tions, would prevent the greater part of the export or the precious metals, would place our circulating medium upon the firmest foundation, and give life, energy and vigor to the general business of the country. We make no war upon the banks. So far as they can be made useful instru mentalities in the business of the coun try, we are in favor of sustaining them, As banks of deposit, discount, and ex change they can be more useful to the public, and more safe and profitable to their stockholders, without a circulation and a union of bank and state. The money system or circulating me dium fixes the standard of value in trade, as the yard -stick fixes the standard of length, the bushel measure the standard or bulk, and the scales the measure or weiaht. Unvarying uniformity, as far as practicable, is, therefore, of primary importance.

Another indispensable preliminary to a correct understanding of the subject is the consideration of the unavoidable and controlling influence over the money system exerted by the trade and business with foreign countries. or no commer cial nation can carry on trade and busi ness successfuly with other countries and discard or disregard the common standard of value or currency of the commercial world. So that to compre hend fully and accurately the operations and results of the monetary system of our country, the subject must bo consid ered with reference to, and in its connec tion with, the trade and business of the other nations of the commercial world. The money system is of paramount importance: it rises above all party ques tions; for to the prosperity and business of the country the currency is like the life-blood to the human system.

HALLETI Portland, Maine. IImIL 'i IF of the president are actively bestirring themselves, and the absence of much-interest on the part of other candidates renders it comparatively easy to push forward pleasant preferences for him. But it is very much against the presi dent, no matter how the fall elections may terminate, that all references to him as a candidate are coupled with and weakened by the evident fear of his ability to carry forward a successful campaign. What the precise points or general evidence of weakness in his case may be, is not mentioned, but lack of faith is shown by the common tenor of all published expressions. The very quiet and peaceful character of his administration' is accounted to him as weakness, in that it is not only believed to be so because of his lack of courageous, independent qualities, seeking rather the ease and comfort of inaction, than that busy turmoil which grows out of willpower and a determination to exert personal strength and show self-reliance by blazing a way through all difficulties, and leaving the impress of his administration upon the history of the times.

The absence of all such qualities, and the evident desire to escape responsibil-ty, as shown by the timid manner of all his official acts, justifies the party leaders in regarding his possible candidacy with doubt and It is yet by no means certain that the president desires to continue in office, but the acclaim of the people must be grateful to him if he believes that it is well meant and really sincere, and this may induce him to make the attempt, though the lessons of history which are before him might teach him to beware. As showing the drift of public opinion from independent Republican standpoints touching the matter of the president's renomination, we quote from that eminently fair-minded paper, the Boston Herald. It treats the matter calmly and judiciously, and leaves ground for mature reflection to those who, dazzled by presidential promises, are willing to urge forward the claims of the president to popular approval. "The renomination of the president may be conceded as a possibility in certain contingencies. His election would be an impossibility in any condi tion of affairs that is likely to exist.

If the fall elections shall result disastrously to the Republicans the feeling that the people have determined upon a change in the direction of national affairs would become so deep-seated that very few eminent Republicans would contend for the dubious honor of being beaten in the election. Or if the Democrats in Congress shall disprove the present aug uries, and really do something for the relief of the people from iniquitous and burdensome the chances for defeating them the general election would be such as still further to discourage Republican aspirations. Show me a chance to win and I can tell you was the reply of one of Mr. Blaine's friends to a question as to the probability of the 'retired' leader's candidacy. With this state of feeling existent, and with the Southern delegates nearly solid his favor, President Arthur nomination might, as we have said, be a possibility, though we hardly think that even then it would be probable.

He has no positive strength with the people. A campaign in his behalf would be without purpose or enthusiasm. His nomination would be a confession of hopelessness on the part of the Republicans. Only monumental folly by the Democrats could give to his candidacy the dignity of leading a forlorn hope." Read this description of a "belle" from a manipulator of mixed languages at a Virginia resort: "This morning a young lady in a white cashmere tea-gown (or rather matinee), jabowed-down the front with pretty Oriental lace, sat in the doorway of one of the most charming cottages in Tansus row. A big white hat shaded her face, a pair of loose gants de Suede covered her shapely hands, her feet were encased in Louis Quartoize slippers and cream-silk stockings.

Her straw chair was lined with pale pink satin ribbon, and at her elbow was a table with an embroidered cover, a glass of iced tea, and the last Century. Above and around leafy branches enclosed and shaded the vine-trellised porch. Over yonder, 6erene and fair, rose the blue mountains and the little hills with their fitful shadows. From the ball-room the dreamy music of one of Strauss' valses broke the perfect stillness till yor correspondent came," etc. How a "Plugr" Operator Destroyed tne Peace of Mind of a Doting Father.

Some people in Chicago and Milwaukee are laughing at a funny thing growing out of the telegraphers' strike. A Chicago banker sent his wife and blooming daughter up to the springs to drink the salient water. One evening he was startled by receiving from mater familias a message saying, "Mary is very ill." He wired for particulars to a resident physician whom he knew would be called, and received the following reply: "Illness not serious; Mary has had a child. No danger unless she has a couple more before morning." The frantic father rushed to the telegraph office and was relieved of much unnecessary anguish when he found that the destroying "plug" operator had written child instead of chilL A gentleman was reproached by a prudish Christian dame for claiming to be a descendant of a celebrity of the Middle Ages. "The claim is preposterous," she said, "the Prince of was never married." He was "stumped" for a moment, but, recovering his wit, asked: are descended from the posterity of Adam and Eve, are you not?" "Certainly," she replied without the least hesitation.

Colonel Donnell and the Baptist peo ple can dependupon the Gazette to assist in this very commendable enterprise, but we insist upon his putting the plum where our people can reach it and that he take off what looks to us very much like a string with which he can pull it back at pleasure. In other words, strip the proposition of such conditions as can only produce jealousy and strife, and make it such that the whole of our people can join in the enterprise, or stop tantalizing us with the prospect of a donation so hedged about us that we cannot reach it or enjoy it. The Gazette is heartily in favor of the prospective college, but will insist that Colonel Donnell be denied the privilege of amusing or advertising himself at the expense of this people.

A new and brilliant electric headlight for locomotives is being quietly perfected by a modest inventor of Indianapolis, who does not care to have his name made known until public exhibition has placed it beyond the possibility of failure.

The light will be equal to the light of 4,000 candles. At present a twenty-candle light is the best that can be produced. It will light the track for a mile brilliantly, and the light will be full and continuous. The generator or dynamo will be run by steam at the will of the engineer. It will be located opposite the air brake, and will not take up as much room.

By the same machine depots, bridges, crossings and ttinnels will be lighted. Extending along the track in both directions will be an electric wire connected with the lamps in the tunnels and bridges; then, extending downward from the dynamo on the engine, the brush will be arranged to touch the wire as soon as it is reached. This will light up the object ahead, and as soon as the brush leaves the wire on the other side the light goes out. A public exhibition will be given soon. A Novel Performance.

A novel bet was made Sunday between a conductor on the Chicago, Burlington Quincy and Mr. Gorman. The former offered to bet that the latter could not pick up and deposit in a basket one hundred eggs placed one yard apart on the ground, in thirty-five minutes. The conditions were that each egg must be deposited separately in a basket held by some one at the end of the line, and in case any one of the eggs shoul be damaged Mr. Gorman was to lose the money.

After thinking the matter over Mr. Gorman decided to try it. The eggs were laid in a straight line just ea3t of the freight depot in the railroad yard, in order to give Mr. Gorman the advantage of doing the work in the shade. He started with the egg furtherest from the basket, and trotted up and down the line until twenty minutes of the alloted time had passed, and as he had picked up but one-fourth of the entire number he gave it up.

About two hundred people were present to witness the affair. After Mr. Gorman had given up the non-test a local mathematician proved l4by figures that it would take about lix miles of travel to pick up the one hun dred eggs.

It being late on Saturday the tailor's shop was closed, and the editor took the trowsers to his wife and asked her to cut them off and hem them over. The good lady, whose dinner had perhaps disagreed with her, brusquely refused. The same result followed an application to the wife's sister and the eldest daughter.

But before bedtime, the wife, relenting, took the pants, and cutting off six inches from the legs, hemmed them up nicely and restored them to the closet. Half an hour later, her daughter, taken with compunction for the unfilial conduct, took the trowsers and, cutting off six inches, hemmed and returned them. Finally, the sister-in-law felt the pangs of conscience, and she, too, performed an additional surgical operation on the garment.
