the ele. t'on ol Speaker Cnsp. Grover Cleveland is not "in it." Thenext candidate for the prebidency wil! be David B. Hill or a western man. Dom Pedro, the good old eniperor of Brasil, has pa=sed away. Under him the people enjoyed a republic with monarchical forni-; now it appears to suffer from a monarchy with repubücac forme. What is in a name? Rldyakd Kiplino, Rider Haggard, Amelie Rives and Bertha M. Clay need write no more novele unül next sunimer. There will be nothing so sensalional thie winter as the record of the flftyMcond c jngress, with ite unwieldy democratie majority. Mille, Simpson, Poffer, Hill are all in the ante, room nd Mie comic opera will soon begin. As attempt was made to have a good altendance at the meeting of the Ann Arbor Business Men's Association 'ast Tuesday evening. Nearly 100 former membere of that associatiun were noti. fied. At the same time it was annouuced that the representative of a manufacturing business desiring to locateat Ann Arbor would meet with the association andexplain what was necesiary in order to Eecure the location of his business in the city. As the result of thií cali there were only sixteen people present. There should h:ive been fifty at least. Although the proposed factory whose representative met the association last Tuesday evening was not one of very great itnportance, vet it was one worth considering, and it ie to be hoped that the committee ap pointed by the Business M-jn's Ai?socia tion to look into the matter wil! make t, thoroigh investigation, and if the outlook seems favorable, that something may be done to secure its remova! to this place. The Hill and Tammany Democracy bas triutnphed. Charles F. Crisp, the moderate protectionist and free coingeist, bas been elected speaker of the houseof representatives. TheRepubliean party has every reason to rejoice over this election. The Democratie party has simply been true to its own history. Dostitute of principies and united only by r greed for oflBce, it now intends to win support by truckling to cvery school of thought. By a straddle on the tariff qaestion it will attempt, at the same time, as in 1884, to catch the votes of protectionists in the east and Cobdenites in the west. It will favor free coinage unequivocally in the west nd soutb, while in the east, by a carefnlly worded claus, it will try to plácate the friends of sound money. This temporiiing policy has seldom brought euccess to any party. The result will simply be this, that germine tariff reformers of all parties will unite in an effort to eiect James G. Blaine, who upholds at the same time the safe policy of reciprocity and the equally safe policy of protection to American labor.
