Kuot,y Wooden Question,

A row has arisen over the construction of
the wood ordinance, and the air is vocal with
the prelude of what may develop into first
class mu>ic before the pesky question shall
have reached a final settlement. few day a
since Bishop Ireland purchased about 300 cords
of wood, intended for the Orphan asylum and
st. Joseph's hospital, which was duly deliver
ed in, this city. John Butler sc ,ured tine con-
tract for hauling the wood. aud seat couple
of men to the depoe for this purpose, their
movements being retarded ~ Inspector
Touchette, who insisted that the woud must
not be removed until 1t had been measured
and he had been paid the fees.
MIR. Butler instructed his men to proceed
with the work, tie upshot of which was the
arrest of one of the men who WAS incaccera.ed
on Wednesday afternoon and released at night
fall. Mr.. Butler called on Cry Attorney Mur-
ray yesterday. highly incensed at tie surpassed
outrage. and Inspector T,uchette visited
the police court to seek redress, procuring q
warrant against Mr. B. The question hirges
TO whether the ordinance has sufficient latl-
tude to compel the mea- urement uf wood not
belonging To dealers and ii will probably find
a solution at the hands Of the cnur..

CORRESPONDENT of the Chicago Tribune
tries to convince the readers of that paper
that, in case of Grants re election to the
Presidency, there will be no danger of q re-
turn to offices of trust of the old gang that
brought such di'grace upon his administra-
ton for the reason that Belknap has made
himself rich by railroad speculations (perhaps
the first letter should be omitted from II g
word); that Babeock is in disgrace with Mrs.
Grant, and Robson has better return for
his tims and labor from his salary as a MEM
Der of Congress and his fees as a member of
the bar in New Jersey. Perhaps the CORE
spondent is right in predicting the ostracism
of tue cid crowd, but We are afraid he dos
not appreciate the capacity of Grant for
discovering rascals in general and placing
them in positions where they can exercise
their talents to the fullest extent.

TINKEHiNH IHE TARIFF.

The Pennsylvania Republican convention,
which met at Harrisburg on Wednesday,
adopted a series of resolutions, among which
we find the following:
Persistent efforts of free traders to
destroy tariff piecemeal by legislation to
repeal duties on special articles. admouishes
us of the necessity ot adhering more strongly
than ever to the tariff policy of the past twenty
years. which has built up our grand sys-
TEN of manufactures s, tostered the revenue of the
government, and promoted our national pros
perity. The business of the country will not
bear this tinkering of the tariff, and if any re-
vision of that tariff is to be made at all it
should be done through a commission of capa-
BILE men after patient and thorough hearing
of all parties TO he interest involved.
We are not surprised that the protection
lists Of the chief manufacturing State Of the
Union have OWNED the purpose of the free
traders so we'll. In fact, that purpose has
scarce been concealed. 1t has long been ap
parent tina: any general attack upon the
tariff would fail of success or, at best could
gain the day only after long contest in
yolving many interests, and at the same time
interfering greatly with the stability of COM
merce. Hence a different policy was
adopted by the advocates of tariff reform

now reads follows: "A presumption which

Fire at the Duluth Depot.

At about IL 80 yesterday fire was discovered
to be breaking out from under the caves of the
water tank house at the St. Paul & Duluth de-
pot. The shops workmen and yard laborers
were quickly on hand, removing wood and
other movables, and the great whistle was
blown loud and long to attract the attention of
some one who could call out the city fire de-
partment. Hose was also laid from steam
pump in one of the railroad shops and a
-tream put On. which in a fair way to
quench the Ere when section of hose
burst. Another section YVES found
and put in and another break occurred. Then
two Of tie city engines, which took water
from the creeks either side but had to wait
some time for hose enough to reach the hre.
Then the first engine to get on a stream burst
section of hose, and when the engine was
stopped there long wait before it was
started agsin. Meantime the little stream from
the shop was doing pretty good work, but not
enough to stop the flames. The tank house
was half burned down and the rest charred.
The tub was also burned SO that it will have
to be rebuilt. The little steam engine
used for supplying er TO the tank Was
saved, not much injured. The loss, which is
about S75U, is covered by the cempany's gener-
al policy of insurance.
The outgoing train for Chicago on the c.,
st. P. q i'll. road, at 1875, was stopped quar-
ter of an hour by the fire hose across the
track, and several other engines and trains were
also delaye. At such places where fire engines
Can take water there should be openings under

that of gradually changing the existing tariff
by reducing or abolishing the duties on
various articles of import. This policy,
while producing no radical business up
heaval, such as would be caused by general
revision of the system, will eventually have
the same effect-that of reducing the tariff
to strictly revenue basis. This gradual
undermining of the pernicious system,
which has contributed go much towards
making the rich richer and the poor poorer,
getting rid of protection altogether, and We
hope to see it persevered in by the present
Congress and all subsequent similar bodies.
We dissent, however, to the statement of
the resolution quoted that "the business OF
the country will not bear this tinkering of
the tariff" and hold to tie assertion that
tinkering in that direction is just what the
country requires. The only two important
are the reduction of the duty
on steel rails from twenty-eight to
ten dollars a ton, and the abolition of the
tax on imports OF soda ash and other chem
icals that enter into the manufacture Of
printing paper. We have previously demon
strated the utility-indeed, the necessity
of the first mentioned measure. The pres
emit tax is simply protective, and enables the
manufacturers of rails to extort the amount
from the railroads. The effect is to in
crease the cost of railroad constr ction, and
to retard the development of the country to
large extent. If it is maintained longer
the chances are that many extensions of ex-
lstlng railroad lines already arranged will
have TO be abandoned or delay ed, and as a
consequence the settlement of our territory
will be retarded, much to the injury Of the
material interests of the whole country. We
would not advocate the reduction of the
tariff on this product to point below that
at which it can be produced here, but a tax
or ten dollars ton is aNple discrimination
against foreign composition, for ii gives to
American manufacturers q fair return upon
their investment.
The repeal of the duties on material used
in the manufacture of paper is dictated by
The highest wisdom. In country where go
much depends upon the intelligence of the
people, 10 effort should be spared to facili
tate the dissemination of useful knowledge.
rne present tax is simply tax upon every
Individual who reads newspaper, aid in
these times the number embraces almost ey
cry citizen.
few other articles are embraced in pend
ing bills. Nearly if not all of them are
proper measures which ought to pass. On
general principles all measures calculated TO
reduce the tariff should receive the sanction
of Congress. We hope that no opportunity
will be neglected by that body to violate the
wishes of the Pennsylvania Republicans, for
by persistent effort the tariff system can be
eventually 80 Oh ,nged as to conform it to
correct economic principles.
