THE TARIEF

WASHINGTON, May 2.-The tariff bill
made considerable progress to-day, and
as the sessions of tomorrow, Wednes-
day, and Thursday are to begin at eleven
o'clock instead of at noon, it is possible,
though not probable, that the measure
NAV be half finished in committee of
the Whole by the time recess COM
mences Thursday evening. The iron
section is about done with, and the rates
fixed are materially lower than the ex-
listing law. Pig iron is reduced from
nine dollars to five dollars per ton, and
railroad iron from seventy cents to sixty
cents per hundred The highest class
of bar iron has been reduced from
twenty-eight dollars to twenty-five dol
lars and forty cents per ton, and the
other class from twenty-five dollars and
fortv cents to eighteen dollars per ton,
Small reductions have been carried on
some other forms of iron, but in the
main they stand about as in the present
law.

DEpLORABLE.-Now that the canvass il
over, probably brief allusion to the i'm
proprie'y Of inducing little girls to sppear
before the public and sing campaign songs,
slandcrius Mr.. Gar6eldc's opponents. will
not be amiss, for We believe We express the
sentiment Of everybody whose opinion is
Of any weight, that this proceeding meets
with unqualified disapproval. Aside from
the Objectionable nature of the songs, and
the improperly Of prostrating youthful in.
nocence to purpose so low, no friend Of
humanity would, upon reflection, have
placed mere children in position so emi-
nently calculated to invite criticism. That
political asscmblages are no places for re-
fined people, especially women and child
rem, has been amply demonstrated by the
"silvcr.tongucd orator" on more occasions
than one. The result justiics these stric-
lures. In the saloons, on the street cor.
ners everywhere, the past few days, youth.
full innocence has been connected with the
ribald jest and pot.house slang. The
Steilacoom Herald, in abiding to this
matter, says:
"Whcn the Gov came to Steilacoom
with his organ. grinders, the people were
amused, but when candidate for Congress
came along with band of innocent little
girls, the people feel, they feel, they
feel most intensely disguised. We are
opposed to allowing little girls make
holy show Of themselves in behalf of
renegade like Garfelde, and managed by
such a confoundcd fool as the Rev. p. D.
Moore. We have witnessed great many
disgusting proceedings connected with pol.
itics, but of all the open shameful proceed.
ings, we do think the parading Of these
little girls down Sound in short dresses,
with their l feel, feel, 1 feel, that
Garfelde is the man, was the GROWING
disgrace of all. When little girls are
brought out into the political arena, and
made to sound the praise of any man, We
are forced to ask Whittier are we drift
ing" With all Garfclde's cffrontery, his
cheek was tingcd with blush of shame on
Monday last, when he gazcd upon those
little innocent girls"
The Seattle Inteh;gencer alludes to the
subject-who willsay too harshly, if it but
awakens the interest Of too confding pa
rents-as follows:
"The Thirteen States, including the
unrcconstructed one, personated by the
Olympia girls, INDUCED in the music Of
the Shoe Fly which was we'll received
by the audience, though not rendered with
that contagious warmth of feeling and pc
culiar skill Of Zavistowski.'

dozen crecitablc witnesses. This
betrays much larger share Of depravity than
Tom Loweis generally suspected Of"
The above quotation is made from the
Tribune Of Tuesday, and to convey a just
idea Of the propriety of the accusation, we
must detail the circumstances upon which
it is based. One day last week the steam.
or Teruna was sent down the Sound to
scatter the corruption fund to points on
the Sound. Mr.. Lowe, in accordance with
the usual custom of express agents, made
up package of letters for other Offices
below, but what was his surprise when he
took it on board to meet with prompt re.
fusal from Mr.. Ferry to allow the package
to be sent by anybody on board the boat
Ferry pinched the package, turned it over,
peeped in at one corner, and finally declared
his belief that it contained Democratic
documents" and as the boat was chartered
by him to carry different sort of docu.
ments, the package should not 60. Mr..
Lowe then returned to the Office aud called
upon two disintercsted witnesses to examine
the letters, which they did, and expressed
their belief that they were what they
purported to be, business letters, many Of
them from California and Oregon, for bust
ness men below. Here the matter should
have rested. But Prosch, following hi.
nose as usual, discovered an opening for an
item, and published his version of the
matter, and now, having sworn the horse
was sixteen feet high he sticks to it with
sledSe-hammer emphasis. His attempt
however, to run tilt with Mr.. Lowe on
question ofveracity, where both are so well
known, is about the silliest thing Prosch
has yet attempted.
The cream of the joke is that notwith
standing Mr.. Ferry's excessive caution in
circulating unaware incendisry" docu.
meuts, person aboard of bis boat did
have his pockets fill with them and
Scattered the gems of the beautiful"

anA'Frost 243. 1t is probably proper to
here add that the variation of the Demo
cratic vote as shown above, for the several
candidates, is owing to the fact that the
Boilers ticket was made up from the other
two tickets, Of Democrats and Republicans,
causing some of the candidates who really
polled their full party vote to appear be.
hind others who exceed their party
strength by score Of votes.
The following are the reported returns
from the counties as far as heard from.
We will not pretend to give anything like
a correct estimate of the majorities until
full returns arc received:
Whatcom is reported to have gone 43
majority for Gar6elde. In jefferson the
Radical majority of last year is materially
reduced. Total majority 1913.
In Kitsap the majority is also reduced,
being l26 for Garfcldc.
In King Gar6clde receives 35 majority
and it is reported that 10. Fosters elected
Councilman.
Snohomish reported to give Gar6clde
IS majority.
Pierce gives Mix q majority and elects
the entire Democratic ticket. Carson for
Sheriff is beaten 80 votes.
Mason gives Mix rs majority and elects
the whole Democratic ticket.
Island probably gives small majority
for Mix.
Lewis gives Gar6elde 33 majority
McFaddcn, for Councilman, carries the
county by SO majority. The Democrats
elect the Representative, Sheriff, Auditor
and one Commissioner.
Cowltz gives small majority for Gar
6elde, but elects Democratic Representa-
tive and Treasurer.
Clark gives % majority for Gar6clde
but elects the Democratic county ticket in
part.
In Wahkiakum Garfelde receives %
majority.
Walla Walla county is reported to have
gone for Mix by $50 majority, and of
course elects the Democratic county ticket.
The Tribune has report that Klkitat
has gone for Gar6elde by 30 majority.
The probability is that the House will
stand Democratic, and the chances are
good for the Council.

absurd propositions was advanced BY the
obese Secretary to secure vote for Gar
fielde last Monday. He took man to
the polls, lately from Oregon. and claimed

quired residence therein. The judges
and bystanders, although prepared for al
most anything from the arrant humbug,
were surprised that party zeal could place a

The capitulation and surrender OF Metz
IS an event which marks q turning point
in the war. Bazaine, at the head o. his
army OF 10000 men, has struck his col
ors TO Prince Frederick Charles, turned
over his garrison and munitions, and the
German flag floats from the stronghold of
France. Bazaine is a Bonapartist, and
there IS no telling the motives which have
actuated him in this matter. There are
some indications which point to downright
t~reachery. The besieging army of the
Prince numbered, according to all ac-
counts, about l67 900 men, and, thus re-
ieved, the greater portion of his army
will be turned against Paris. Since the
capture of Schlestadt, three other fortress
es in Alsace remain in the hands of the
French. These are New Breisach and
BelfOrt, on the Upper Rhine, and Bitche,
in the department of the Lower Rhine
1t is definitely settled that the war against
the French Republic is to go on, and,
with the reinforcement which the army
about Paris will receive through the ca
pitulation of Metz, we may safely predict
the fall of the peerless city within a short
time.

cox AND

The correspondence between President
Grant and the late Secretary of the Inte-
rior, General Cox, speaks for itself. Gen.
Cox distinctly states that he resigns his
Office solely because the reforms which he
desired to effect for the public good in his
department cannot be carried out without
the support of the President. His Ian
guage is as courtesy would permit it to be.
He says: 81 ought not to overlook the
"fact that the reforms which 1 regard as
needed for the public service inrolre an
deposition a0Aich Il mag not be for the
Interest Of This administration toproroke /;
"and as my personal tendency is to be
more rather than less persistent in the
course to which l am committed, I deem
ut my duty to place in your hands my
resignation Of the office of Secretary of
"the Interior" To this letter President
Grant replies in his usual clumsy style,
indorsing the fidelity Of this faithful pub
lie servant, and accepting a resignation,
which, being accepted, brands, upon his
own brow the shameful stigma of unwil-
lingness to uphold an honest official in the
honest performance of MS duties I!

At the election in Scranton, Pennsylva-
MIA, a very respectable and influential
German, who was naturalized some time
since, and who had as much right to vote
as any n in the country, presented him
self theret to vote, with regular papers, but
having apparent flaws in them, which a
Republican officer could invent, if not see,
his vote was refused; But he knew he had
a right to vote and determined to vote ;
whereupon he went home, blackened his
face, made a negro of himself, turned his
German nam into English, and his vote
was received by the Republican officers
without a word of dissent.

WEST VIRGINIA.

West Virginia has heretofore been re-
garded as q reliable Radical State. 1t
gave Grant nearly 5000 majority, and
elected radical Governor by nearly 5000
majority. The returns from last Thurs
days election, however. show that West
Virginia feels the influence of the great
reactionary wave hat is sweeping the
Radical party out of power. The returns
are yet meagre, but enough is known in
Wheeling TO encourage the Democrats to
claim two of the three Congressman and
probably the State ticket. All the coun-
ties heard from give heavy Democratic
gains. An amendment to the constitution,
known as the Flick amendment" was
voted upon, and has undoubtedly been
carried. 1t confers the franchise on the
ex-Confederates VINO have been excluded
from the ballot-box since the close of the
war, and also upon the negroes, who have
voted, however, in this election by virtue
Of the fifteenth amendment. The des-
patches report Democratic gains in men,
bers of Assembly; sufficient, it is thought
to give the Democrats the control of the
next Legislature, which is to have the
choice of q United States Senator to sue
coed Mr.. Wiley.

THE RADICAL FRAUDS IN NEW
YORK CITY.

Grant and his associate radical scoun-
drels have determined to carry New York
if bayonet power and villainy can do it.
They have been sending troops and ma
rines to New York city, preparatory to the
election on the Sth. They claim the late
census shows a population too small for
so large a vote as the city has been given.
We refer u readers to Gov. ~Seymour's
speech in this paper. The World of the
9th ult., thus handles the Tribune:
aft the census returns are correct, the
Tribune and the Republican party are
convicted of the most infamous frauds in
the past. If Republican officials cheated
in 1864, they will cheat in 1870. If the
Tribune and other Republicans upheld
frauds IN 1864, they will DO so now. The
Tribune finds all its pretended frauds in
the wards of the fourth Congressional
District, which is made up Of the first, Sec
ond, third, fourth, fifth, sixth and eighth
wards. In the enrollments of 1861 more
men were enrolled in these wards thar in
any other Congressional district in the
State-twice as many as in any Republ-
can district in the State of New York.
No man could be enrolled unless he was
a voter, except those between the ages of
20 and p. Many could not be enrolled
who were voters, viz, all over The age of
45 and those exempt for physical or other
disabilities. If there were more men La
BILE to military duty in those wards than
in other districts, then there were more
voters there. You called men liars and
traitors who questioned the enrolment
You now say men are liars and abettors
Of fraud if they say it was correct. The
enrolment in these wards was more than
10000 in l863-twice as many as were
found in any Republican district in the
State.
The question comes up, Which is fraud
ulent, the enrolment or the census re-
turns? We answer, both. One was too
high, the other too low. Both were made

against a heartless conquerer. Count An
drossy replied in behalf of the government
showing that it could only occupy a posi-
ton of impartial benevolence to each OF
the belligerents. Should any other power
abandon its neutral attitude Hungary
might then change her policy. The mo-
ton was rejected.
