BALTIMORE, July Is, 1916,
The excitement against the repeal OF the
Tariff increases, and the vote of opposition
gathers volume and power. | tho Wings Of
The Union could be Indifferent to the great
interests Of the county, put at Jeopardy by
the bill now before the Senate, and could
only look to party success, they would desire
even more than Mr. Polk and his party sflec,
to desire, the passage of that bill The storm
which the repeal of the tariff of 1912 would
raise, would drive Locofocosm high and dry
upon the beach. Its threatened repeal has
awakened a spirit Of indignation in Pennsyl-
vania, the deep mutetings Of which even
now ring in the ears Of the President, as a
terrible warning Of the fate that is in store
for him. 1t is reported from Washington
that he is in trouble. lie has not the spirit
to go back, and he ,rembles as he goes for
ward Letters are pouring in upon him from
New York and Pennsylvania, protesting a.
gains, the course of the Unon-i insisting that
he is pledged before the world TO stand by
the protective prnciple-and admonishing
him Of the face OF John Tyler A largo iron
worker in Pennsylvania, who gave his aid,
and il was important To secure the success
Of thePolk tickle, in ,heSlalc, passed through
Washington. lie goes to personally femon-
s,rato with Mr. Polk and falling in this, to
admonsh Mr. Buchanan, that honor and tho
interests and voice of the Keystone State
require that he should cut loose from the adj
mlnstration-or he may prepare himself on
his return home, TO DO covered, where he
may 90, with the shame Of the scorn and in
diGnation OF q deceived people
What will Mr. Buchanan do Every bo-
dy here says he will holdlon. His chancellor
the Presidency is past If he ever had any
! Pennsylvania has so lent herself to the enc
mics of her best interests, and has so bllndly
and willingly too done their bidding that IN
casting around for candidates for the Pres-
dency, nobody thinks Of er,among the Loco
Focos. Oh, the Keystone State Will sup
port the Democratic ticket, beyond doubt lot
who will be the candidate-has always, and
unless she assert with manliness the ntiu-
enco to which her size and position enilile
her always will be the all satisfactory answer
to claim or prctension put forward for one
OF her sons. 1t is with States, as with
men, when they allow themselves to be made
| the plable instruments to work out the am
bilious schemes OF others, they will be kept
at that work No Locoioco, therefore, thinks
Of Pennsylvania for President, and Mr..
Buchanan has sense to see it. He, therefore
turns his ambitious aspirations elsewhere
He wants to 90 on the Supreme Bench. For
this, he has sold himself and his State. The
office is promised him. beyond all doubt ;
but he has work yet TO do for it. Can any
one think that if he did not feel he was forced
to please the President he would have gone
to the House, as he did last week, and there
mingling with the members, electioneer with
them for votes for tho Graduation bill ! "a
till, against the policy OF which, all parties
Of PENNSYLVANIA had borne unanimous leSti-
mony for years And does any one think
that lie would remain, as he has been requI.

been acted upon, for fear, as II is given OUT
by the subalterns Of the White House. he
nigh, use his influence, ifhe were now made
Judge, to defeat that bill Mr. Folks advi
sers and controllers, for, poor man, he has
lltrle to say for himself will not trust Mr..
Buchanan. They intend TO keep him in the
Cabinet I'LL the tariff bill is acted on, and
then he will be nominated for the judgeshlp
But his confirmation is by no means certain
The game OF keeping the place so long open
for hlm,ha begot an opposition to him among
the Wings ,whohave never ceased TO remem
Der, d. can never forgive, the part he played
10 the Infamous bribery and corruption sian
der which was got upin 1875. Several Lo
coioco Senators, who disspproved and con
demned his course in the Oregon question
and who have taken up from II most unfa
vorable Union Of his judgment, are inclined
10 oppose his con trmation, and now there II
a strong runner from Washington that tho
, "hity-ioui iorties' will 60 dead against him
Under the present aspect Of things he is sale

and keep quiet upon the tar i'll, It 10 hot post
Iyely certain that he will be nominated.
