Edmunds 1b epoken of ae the Ver mont iceberg and Sherman te the elongated Ohio ioicle. Perhaps the cold wave is the reault of a clash b: - tween them the other day. Senator Edmunds was so dis gruntled at the action of Senator Hherman In prematuiely dhcussing the suspension mu' erthat he became quite augry. While In a petulant mood he made known much of the oootents of the committee report, which bave heretofore b< en consider ed confidential Evidently Edmunds was much vexed with Hherman to allow hie temper to so get away with him. "The proposition to enlist two reg iments of cow Le y# to presi rve the peace amorg the wild Indians Is encountering much opposition in army oirolce, the i ffleers of the latter resenting any iuterfeieuce with what they imagine are their vee'ed rights" Then why not send them to the frontier to do the work that the oow br ysare to be enlisted for. While these g'inllemanly soldiers ate slicks lets for tbelr vested rights, tiny should have the full benefit of them Ho far frontier service has been a farce. Tub Couriei-J: urnal says "It is not to the credit of ■ Akers of the Unlitd States aimy that the vacancy which is created by the death of Gen eral Hancock and the subsequent promotions which will ensue along the line should have oaustd them t> begin a scramble (cr places before hie remains have toen laid in the grave. Common, eveiyduy polit.oians ot uld, behave no worse tbau they." Pets haps If there were fewer oemnton, everyday politicians among army e ffloers, there would be less need to criticise their conduct. In the Iowa legislature a bill is being considered which makes drui keuness a crime. That is a good bill, and a similar one ought to he passed in every stale in the union No man has a right to make himself over into a flood capable of all man ner of crime, and escape from the consequences under the plea "I was drunk," The condition itself should he ranked as a mime and punished. We too often hear the plea of "the poor druukurd." It should he changed to the wicked drunkard Ot course drunkenness is not an execs for crime in tbe eyes of (he law, but it too otten has its weight with Jurors BDd in public sentiment as well. Make drunkenness a ctime and there will be .’ees of it, and less need for stilngeut prohibition laws. Onk of the most remarkable men in tbe British parl'ainent is Joseph Arch. Fifteen years agT Arch was a ct turnon farm laborer, supporting himself and family on tour dollars a week. Hts wife could read and write when he married her, and she taught him all she kDtw. After leariDg to read, Arch spent hie nights in read ing everything he csuld get hold of He began orgunixing labor unions among the farmers and speaking to them. This made him disliked by the landlords, and it was a difficult matter for him to get work. East summer the t ew franchise toil made voters of &00 000 tenant farmers, and Arch, for the litBt time, found him self a freeman. With plucky audac ity, this newly emancipated serf stood for parliament, and was eleoted over the great lory magnate, Lord lienry Bentlcok. ihimii Md ••rr.ti. "There ure no secrets in this gov ernment. This is a government of the people, and there can be no secrets In it.” This was the rather curious asser tion made by Heuator Hherman in dleousslng the rights of the senate the other day. He desired to imply that there was something iu the ex eeutlve department that tbe admin istratlon dtelred to keep secret. OI oourBe Hherman is blinded to his own weakness, or be would not pose as an advocate for open-banded dealing against the measures adopted by President Cleveland If there is one man more than another in the senate who has the ret utation of attempt ing to "sin Hid the cart's undtr the table" that man is Hherman. Under all the oircum Htanoee, we nave not seen a more ju.-t criticism than tie following, which we find iu the New York Times ; "Mr H! erman knows and every one else knows, that what be wants of tha information demanded is to secure some plausible ground for condemning suspensions by refusing consent to the appointment of auo- censors to suspended officers. That '8 not only very well and very generally known, but Mr Hherman is entirely awsre that It is, and his protestations against "eecieets” Is not only absurd but inclnoere, unless, as we have suggested, be le prepared to abandon the unjustifiable and discreditable policy of atcreoy which the senate has heretofore pursued. "If he is prepared to do that tbe course before him is very plain. La him begin by inducing his fellow- members of the senate lo consider all n< minatin s to < fUce in open s s- sion. Let him sek < f the senate first, that the sen a ore themselves may put on record iu oper. . euate rll their letters of lecommendation, the peti tions they have signed, and the pa pers they bave submitted to the de partments or to tbe president touch ing appointments or removals. This they can do without inftinglt g in tbe slightest degree on any preroga tive of the executive. They are nuts ters of tbelr own signatures, and they are at perfect liberty to supplement the written records by pe gma! ex planations of wnat they have sold and done regarding the appointment of any per son (or of any number of persons, for they have sometimes given the exec utive an embarrassment of choice) to any place. They can go further, if they will, and make a full state ment ot the share titty may have hmi iu the appointment or promotion of persons now suspeedud from fflue anil an explanation of their motives. All this would be extremely inutr- * eit g, and if complete and candid would be very valuable It wcu'd not, ss we have remarked, infringe on any right of the executive, but it would, if the senators could com mand public approval of their ac tion thus disclosed, immensely strengthen them in their position that the president should give them all the tnfoiraaliou they ask for. VVe are quite sure, for instance, lha' if Mr Hherman should take the pei p'e into his cot fideuceregarding all that be has done as to ifflcee iu Onto, and if Mi Blddh berger and Mr Mu* hone should open their hearts (wide cqe:) regarding the ifflcee iu Vir ginia, they wculd be in a very differ ent position from that tl ey new oc cupy in tbelr demands upou the «x culive. The disclosure without merve of all tbelr own secrets wou d give quite a new aspect to their prc. testations that there should be i o septets in the depar'.ments or the white house " Tbs Warrior Coal riel*,. The Montgomery Advertiser of yesterday strikes the note of slatni against the monopoly that is now o Jo cent rating around the coal fields of Birmingham. It is afraid tha. ti e development cf the resources of Ala bama, which hs* heretofore bien ooLsidertd Mich a gnu ble< sing, will turn out to be a curse, at d thus it gives its reasons therefor: "On Widutrday the capitalists and the companies owning lands In tbe Warrior coal field# met in Blrmirghsm for the pur pose of ooinbiuiug their interests into one grand corporation or combi nation, or by whatever other name the divtlitb thing may come to be known. Tbe number of compantts and individuals tepresented was sev enteen. and their combined posses sions 244 700 acres of coal land , Oue man said all the lauds represent'd were the most valuable In tbe War rior fluid, and the rest coucurred in that belief. Tbe proposition was made to form a new corporation, and that all the la- ds represented he transferred to this new company Capt J F Johuetou was the mover of the plan.” The only peraoD to rala: a voice against this monopoly was ex-Mayor M L M<i#es, of Moulgomeiy, and be expressed the opinion that "it would retard tbe development of tbe o^al In terests of the state." , This, lit its full significance, means a great deal, more than would casually be inferred Per hap§ 1 e »ees in it the destruction of a great many smaller indua rlea o’the ssme kind that must succumb to tbe crushing It fiuenoes of this powerful corporation. Every man In tbla Ire- ant t y has the privilege f invest it g as much money as be may be able t command in any legitimate enter prise, but It will be a bad day for Alabama when capit Hits invite such antagonisms as ure possible to grow out of such transactions a. a mono|>o- ly of the Warrior ooai fle'ds U-a»ral RaaMik’, Poncral Tbe remains cf me lamented Gili- c-rai Win field Heott Hanoock win tie placed iu their last resting plao at Norristown, Pa, to-day. May he rest iu peace. The military record of G»ueral Hancock needs no comment, as it la written in the pages of history. Hts exploits in peace were fully as greaL a- were his deeds iu war, and it is of these that we of tbe sonth love to connect him and remember him His well-remembeied general order "No 40” gave him a place in tbe hearts of the southern people that is not severed even by death. It was In tbla that he declared the war to he over, and be deoiared his purpose to pureue it by ail' wing the civil nuthor- bies to carry out the civil laws Hr declared that "the right of trial by Jury, the habeas corpus, the til erty of the press, the freedom of sppech, the natural rights of persons nod the rights of properly should be respect e i.” Coming at the time and ccea sion—in 18H7 at New O.lea: s-thtss were declarations to be treaso el. As the nominee of the democratic party, he went through tbe bitter ttess and tu.moil of a presidential campaign without any mar, ssyieg aught against his personal worth F r years the ruthless partisans who force themselves to the fiout in every can vass have, unfortunately, btea ac corded free license to assail tbe ohut> acter of prominent men of both par ties This hts invariably bread e with the base purpose of wrongly in fluencing voters who are n it always able to separate fact from fiction, or to discern malice fr m public spirit. No further {entrance of General Hancock’s manly purity le needed, when we i\fi ot that be was the only presidential candidate since tbe war who ed els in private and public life furnished no pretext for detrac tion. Anyone who thus challenges the t t'sntion of a whole people ny i fforittg himself tor tneir suffrages puts a test upon bis mental and moral qualities which all of our public men could not successfully withstand. f «r.T*ranr •Isymiup, Ex-G vernor Seymour died at his home it.

It. wa# he who, as the bead of the presi dential ticket of Heymour and Blair, undertook to re (tore the dem-crstlc party to power Just after the close of the.war. He was in some respects a remarkable man and was always a alaurch friend to democracy and a liberal contributor to its support.
