TIMELY COMMENT. The statute which makes full sergeants of two police patrolmen detailed for clerical work is a fair sample of the microscopic statesmanship for which the Ohio general assembly is peculiar. There is no need of bothering about plans of municipal reforni as long as the Cuyahoga delegation is at the helm. What Jere Brown, Dave Morison, Bill Clark, Jack Haley and Evan Davis don't know -about municipal affairs would fill a library--we should say isn't worth knowing. President Harrison evidently intends to try his hand at repressing the hitherto irrepressible Ohio man.
In addition to the word passed around in this state after the election and his intimation in the inaugural address the president has plainly told the spoilsmen in this state that they must wait for commissions to expire. The men who went from Cleveland to' assist President Harrison in running the government must be getting discouraged. So far they have got only cold comfort. Their experience has been a common one. A man may tower above his fellows at home, but when he' gets to Washington and sizes himself up with the giants who congregate there from all parts he: shrinks wonderfully.
The consolidation of three steel rail works in Chicago with capital of $20, 000 pot only makes the largest plant of its kind in the United States and largest but one perhaps in the world but it is practically a trust as far as it goes aud the most effective possible way of establishing a monopoly. Jonathan Chace of "Providence, R. who is reported as about to resign his seat in the United States senate for business reasons, has only lately been reelected and his term expires in 1895. He is a Republican. The legislature of that state is overwhelmingly Republican, having a majority of 81 ou joint ballot, and being still in session would immediately return a Republican.
So the political composition of the United States senate would not be affected by the resignation. The government reports that the coal product of the United States in 1888 amounted to 138,515, 744 (short) tons ex.clusive of what was consumed at the mines. Of this Pennsylvania mined 43,578,000 tons of anthracite and 32,500,000 tons of bituminous coal. Ohio comes next with 11,050,000 tons, closely followed by Illinois with 11,835,188 tons, which is more than twice as much as any other state produced. "The total value of Pennsylvania's coal product at the mines, both anthracite and bituminous, was $115,852,100, Ohio's 114,000.
The value of the Illinois coal somewhat exceeded that of Ohio though the quantity was less. While the coal industry of this state is steadily increasing in importance, wool growing is decreasing. Representative Clark managed to present a remonstrance against the GardnerBlandin bill in the house yesterday but when he undertook to present a petition for it he was unable to catch the speaker's eye. This is significant. The Tilden club has taken the initiative in complying with the suggestion of the president of the National association of Democratic clubs to publicly commemorate the anniversary of the death of Thomas Jefferson.
Officers of all other Democratic clubs in this city are invited to meet in the Tilden club rooms this evening and. assist in arranging preliminaries for a celebration worthy of the occasion. It is to be hoped that the response to the invitation will be general, for the time for preparation is short. THE COPPER CORNER. The French syndicate that engineered the great copper trust is struggling desperately, to prevent the collapse of the most gigantic corner in the metal market the world has ever seen.
The chances are against success, although the mines included in the trust have made a new arrangement, agreeing to decrease their output for the purpose bf bolstering up prices. Confidence is diminishing and the belief is general that the French syndicate will "have to let go before long, with disastrous results to all concerned, except to those who have to purchase copper. Meanwhile American users of American copper can look with what satisfaction they may on the fact that American copper is selling in London at about $80 a ton lower than it can be bought in this country. There is a heavy tariff on copper. sixteen page paper will be unusually complete in every way, both as to abundance and variety of reading.
In the article Sorosis something 1 will be learned of the pioneer woman's club. Thomas Byrnes entertainingly fells how Gotham thieves are shadowed and how a man who feigned sleep learned the facts in the celebrated New Haven murder case. Bill Nye "goes shopping," muses on the inauguration and lays down rules for a hotel. Those who have "appeared in public. on the stage" will enjoy reading the article Stage- Fright.
The ladies can find all the latest facts and fables in the fash ion discussion entitled March Openings. Numerous other articles besides the usual varied departments, the latest general, local and sporting news, will afford something of interest to everyone.

It is not enough to avoid evil, but even. the appearance of Mr. Blaine, people will remember, is usually. ino" in any.
enterprise with which he has to do. PUSH THE WORK. The legislature having passed the harbor bond bill, with the amount increased to $25,000 as suggested by the PLAIN DEALER, there is now no obstacle in the way of beginning the work. Whatever preliminary steps remain to be taken should not be delayed a day longer than absolutely necessary. The council has full power to authorize the issue of the bonds, fixing the amounts, interest and period of each within the limits set by the law.
The sooner the work is begun the sooner the city will reap the benefit of the outlay. Ex Gov. FOSTER gays: "It wouldn't take much fooling on our part to make the legislature Democratic." That is a solid, clear, cold block of truth, a full foot thick.Cincinnati Commercial Gazette. We have had a Democratic senator since 1867 from Ohio, and we propose to elect the legislature in 1889 which will give us another one. Why in a state sO evenly divided in politics as is Ohio should the Republican party have both senators? And it is "solid, clear" block of truth," more than two feet thick, if we get the legislature that the.
state shall not be dered so that the Democrats with: 396,455 votes shall be entitled to six congressmen, while the Republicans with given fifteen congressmen. We propose to have a fair divide and. no fooling! THE decision of the West. Virginia supreme court doesn't please the Leader and it falls to abusing the court. That is always the privilege of the loser in the case.
It sighs for the time when there will be a Republican supreme court in that state to: make Republican decisions. What the Republicans want is the power to appoint. a majority of the supreme court safe give the needed decision in a case ready to come before it. is Republican preF cedent for that. EXTRAVAGANT ECONOMICAL.
261,990,088 09 219,595,283 18 $1,650,140,621 19 CLEVELAND. The -Leader doesn't like the PLAIN DEALER's comparison of the cost of the recent Democratic administration with that of the preceding Republican administration and claims that the division of appropriations was not right. It holds that the appropriations for 1885 and 1886 belong to the Garfield-Arthur term and that the Cleveland instead of the Harrison administration is responsible for the appropriarions for 1889 and 1890. Very well, let us figure on that basis and include the Hayes administration to see how much increase is due to the growth of. the country and consequent greater expense of goverument.
Taking the Leader's view of responsibility the Mayes Republican administration is responsible for the appropriations made for the four years the GarfieldArthur for 1883-1886, the Cleveland administration for 1887-1890. The figures given in the tables below were taken, with the 'exception of 1890, from the Tribune Almanac, 50 that no complaint can be made of "Democratic jugglery." The totals for each year of the Hayes and Garfield- Arthur administrations, can be: found on page 43 of the Tribune Almanac for 1887, where the discrepancies of previous publications were corrected. The Cleveland appropriations were taken from the almanacs for 1887-8-9 and the Leader's. figures for .1890 accepted. Here is the result: HAYES, 1879...
$171,187,349 68 1880.. 192,870,137 17. 1881. 189,474,559 49 218.358,057 25 $771,890,103 59 $297,561,692 29 1884. 270.993,647 63 CLEVELAND.
1887... $263,917,339 1889. 806,935,544 1890... 218.730,511 8388 $1,101,512,090 16 Increaso Garfield-Arthur over 278.250,517 60 Increase Cleveland over Garfield: 51,371,468 97 The ordinary expenses of government during each term may be expected to ex ceed that. of preceding term so long as the population of the country; continues to increase, its populated territory extend and its resources develop.
A fair percentage must be allowed for that natural increase before a just comparison can be made between the economy of one. administration and the extravagance of another. What is that fair per centage? The Garfield-Arthur appropriations exceeded those of the Hayes' term by the Cleveland appropriations exceeded those of the Garfield-Arthur term by $51,371,468, or less than onefifth the increase of the Garfield- over the Hayes. The appropriations for the Garfield- Arthur Republican term exceeded those of the Republican term by more than. 36 per cent.
The increase for the Cleveland term over the GarfieldArthur was less than 5 per cent. It forlows necessarily that the Garfield-Arthur administration must have been frightfully extravagant or the Cleveland administra-: tion astonishingly economical. Which? A SON IN THE WRONG PLACE. If Mr. Blaine is ambitious, as has been claimed for him by some friends, to make a reputation for himself in the state department that will cause the public to forget whatever shady in his past, he has made an unfortunate mistake at the outset.
His son. Walker Blaine was mentioned as the probable choice for first assistant, but the place was given to Eugene Schuyler, author and diplomat of That appointment was as good as could have been expected. Mr. Schuyler is far better qualified for the post than is the secretary's son. Had the matter rested there Mr.
Blaine would have been credited with an honest purpose. But it did not rest there. Walker Blaine was kept out of the post to which common report had assigned him and was given that of examiner of claims coming before the state department. The difference between the two is that in Eugene position there is "no money," whilst in Walker there are almost infinite possibilities. The examiner of claims has a delicate task, calling for great legal acumen, perception, sound judgment and thorough knowledge of international law.
Walker Blaine is a young man who has not yet earned a reputation for either of these qualities. Ho succeeds Dr. Wharton, who ranks high in them all. Walker Blaine will have to pass on a large number of claims of somewhat doubtful character against parties in South American countries or against the governments themselves. On his report the state department is expected to rely when determining whether to press the claims on those governments.
When itis fecalled that Mr. Blaine, as secretary of state in 1881, came near involving the United States in war with Chili through, his pushing the old and doubtful Landreau claim against the Peruvian government, it seems that he should now be exceedingly careful to avoid any possibility of falling into a similar error. At that time Secretary Blaine propounded some doctrines. of international law that were new to authorities on the subject and which were regarded with surprise-to use the most respectful word possible. Aside from the indelicacy of placing his son in such a position--there would have been no limit to harsh criti- THE TOWN'S MIRROR A ada A old And the Pictures Seen in It by Reporters.

Fairbanks, president of the Florida fruit exchange, said at the American pomological convention, held in Ocala, that about 7,000,000 boxes of oranges were consumed in this country annually. I have watched the receipts here carefully, and sbould say that there are about 2,000,000 boxes shipped here in a year. About one quarter of these are shipped by local dealers, So I Mr. Fairbanks' figures are wrong--just making. a rough guess, I would say that these oranges were worth about $40,000.
At present they are up pretty high, from about $2.50 to $3.50 a box, according to the variety and quality. The advances in prices are generally according to the size of the crop, for there is always a good "Do.you see that girl?" asked a young lady of a reporter yesterday afternoon, a rather pretty young woman across: the street. that girl was engaged to be married, Her intended owned two' small houses in 'East Cleveland, and everything was arranged for them to occupy one of them. The house was furnished, and the girl helped select the furniture and arrange it. It was a sure thing, and they were almost as good as married when the engagement was abruptly broken off.
By what, do you think? By Turkish bath Yes; I'm not joking. Yousee, her intended used to give her everything-all sorts of. presents-and one day he happened to have. some Turkish bath tickets in his pocket, and he gave her some. She took them and was on her way to try one when she met a young lady friend.
She told her friend that Gus had given her some bath tickets, and that she was going to try a Turkish bath. Then the girl's friend made just one little innocent remark about it being perfectly natural for. Gus to want ber have a bath before they were married. But Gus' aftanced didn't take it a joke; It rankled in her mind. The more she thought of it the less she thought of Gus, So she" went home, packed her trunk and went off up the lakes for the summer.

The plot was this: Clara Vere de Vere Gallagher, heroine, on the West Side.

In order to become engaged to Fitz-Smythe Clara, bounces her old lover. The rejected suitor, in common with the successful one, wants Clara for her boodle.

A well known citizen interested in religion and religious discussion said yesterday that two such quotations from addresses on the subject of evolution annoyed him. The quotations represent the two extremes of evolution and are as follows: Now, evolution may be accepted by christians as God's method of creating the human body. No one pretends that man's spiritual nature is affected by evolution. Suppose we should grant that the spiritual nature, man's mental faculties, have been evolved from the brute, what would be its attitude toward Christianity? The doctrines of the fall and of atonement would be overthrown.
