CHEAT VIC rokE.
There Is 1nmentat,on among the chapa who
wtnl down 10 Washington 10 induce Con
| grcss to LET them rob the American people of
s400, 0,o00,0 900. Tne Senate has postponed
thcir bill to next December, by si1 majority.
This mcaus that it Is Killed. The bill was
stronger the daT 1t was reported from the
Committee Of Ways and Means than it has
| been any day since. By next December It
viii not only be dead but it will be odens,yc
to the public nostrils. The "ring.f can now
pack their Trunks, pny their tavern and
\ liquor bills, and 70 home with the reflection
that they started out to commit crime, and
succeeded only in committing blunder.
The vote in the Senate is great victory of
GOOD morals, aud correct principles Of politl-
cal economy. over knavery and folly. More
than this, It Is a victory which has m i'm
mense political Significance, for 1t removes
the only disturbing element which could pos.
siDly prevent Republican triumph this fall.
The tariff maniacs would have endangered
every State in the Northwest, and given seats
IN Congress to twenty or thirty Coppcrhcads
II they had been allowed to have their way.
THIS Ia now rendered impossible by tie
prompt and decisive action of the Senate.
In bringing about this result, in
conjunction with other fearless Re.
publican Journals in the Northwest.
l. tue Chicago TRIBUNE may Lar claim to some
oastlpcsiou. We sounded the alarm the mo-
nent the bill made it's appearance. and
fought 1t with arguments Which penrt,aicd
even The Committee Of Ways and Means bv
whom the thing was concocted. W. ~.
posed the political and economical blundcrs
and pointed out the manifest fraud sought
to be perpetrated upon the great mass of the
people, SO cohclastvcly that there was but
ono opinion about It IN thirty OF fosty Con-
gressionaa districts in the Northwest.
But We chcerfnlly resign the honors to
those Republican members OF The Seuatc aud
House Of Representatives who consistently
and manfully fought against the bill, and
saved their constituents from the wrope with
which they were threatened. In this cate.
CORY Iowa is entitled to the first place, and
Illinois to the second. The Iowa members
in both Houses throttled the bill with the
pluck aud spirit which their soldiers dis
played ct Fort Doncldon, rs did also Afcssrs.
1darding and Wasuburne Of Illinois. Illinois
contributed more numerically to the on.
position than Iowa, as her members
voted In solid phalanx aeafnst the bill, while
one member from the Hawkcye State voted
to sacrifice everything TO get fve cents
pound more for his wool. Indiana, and Mis-
sour, and Minnesota fought good fight, and
deserve MI the honor that can be bestowed
upon them. The Republican party has been
saved from a great peril, and the people Of
the United states from a great calamity. The
bill Ito prevent US from enjoying the blcs-
sings Of Divine Providence" as Mr.. Kasson
properly denominated 1t, Is rs dead as Julius
CEsar.
New England, after all, contributed the
exact number OF votes necessary to kill the
bnl-Messra. Foster, of Connecticut, and
Sumner md Wilson, of Massachusetts, voting
against It, These Senators voted for their
States, while the Connecticut and Massachus-
etls House members yotcd for private corpor-
ations.
