1t is within the power OF a single man In Con-
gresS to sometimes do more harm than can
be cured by all the good the other members can
do. Yesterday morning In the Senate Mr.,
Jones, OF Florida reported from the naval COM
mittee resolution authorizing the Secretary of
the Navy to secure adequate naval stations and
harbor5 for the use of naval forces OF the United
states along the Central American coasts and
the coasts OF the American ISthmus. The pur-
pose or the resolution was to provide for the
adequate protection of American interests 10
the ISthmuS and inter oceanic communication.
The government had, some time ago. determ-
ned to establish proper supervision over the
lsthmus. and for this purpose war vessels
were sent there. The Secretary of the Navy
urged Congress to give him authority to secure
the means necessary TO maintain the United
States vessels, and this was the object OF the
resolution. Senator Jones urged the import
ance OF the measure earnestly, and presented
the subject IN its national importance. Senator
Cockrell. OF Missouri, objected to considera-
ton OF the resolution, and by the exercise of
this pTerosa;ive prevented its consideration
He was urged and pleaded with by other Sena-
TORS, personally, to withdraw his objection, but
he doggedly refused. 1t was especially import
ant to provide proper protection for American
interests on the Isth1nus during the recess OF
congress. and though al the Senator's except
one realized this need and We're anxious to meet
IL, they were unable TO do So

The republican papers are trying very hard
TO fix Gen. Garheld's status upon the tariff, but
the more they discuss it the more perplexing
the question seems to become. The party Or
gans which are opposed to protection insist
yehemently that the candidate Is a free-trader,
while the high tariff journals are as positive
that he is protectionist. Gen. Garfeld's re-
cord Is referred to by the disputants, and 1t
must be confessed that 1t furnishes arguments
for both slices to the discussion. though In the
main his votes and speeches have been In favor
OF high tariff. He has been described as free
trader in theory, and the New York Erening
Post Is satisfied with this while the Commercial
Advertiser maintains that he is lin no sense
free-trader." letter is published written by
Gen. Garfield on the 18th Of December 1879.
In which he said: ~ have voted for every
republican tariff bill which has passed the
House since have beer 4 member OF it,
The prominence given so early In the canvass
to the tariff Views Of the republican pre5lden-
tial candidate Is very significant 1t shows that
the people OF the country are taking more In
terest in this subject of tariff than the members
OF Congress have realized, Judging by their
course through the late session. The anti-pro-
lection sentiment OF the country will make
Itself felt within the next two or three wears
The agriculturiStS, with the exception OF sugar
planters, want free trade. The manufacturers
are protectioniStS because that policy Is to their
interest Self-intereSt Is the great motive
which governs the people In matters OF govern.
mental policy, and the few whose interests are
subserved by protection must In the end be over
come by the many whose interests would be adj
yanced by free trade. There Is safe middle
course possible, and some OF the prominent pro-
teetionists in Congress are beginning to see that
they Will have to compromise or lose all. These
men are In favor OF tariff reform. That is, of a
policy that will relieve the tariff of its worst
features, and still protect, reasonably at least,
American industries. At the next session of
Congress, after the members shall have been
among their constituents, the tariff reformers
will be more numerous and more courageous
than now.
