The quinine makers are still loud in
their demands for a reimposition Of du-
ty on that article. There are just four
of them, and they propose that every
man, woman and child in the country
who has a chill shall be taxed for Their
benefit. AT the same time they declare
that it is an outrage to levy tariff on
the materials which enter into the
manufacture of quinine. One of the
arguments used by the quinine makers
is that the removal of the duty has ru-
ined the business. On the other hand,
a Philadelphia paper (where most of
the quinine is manufactured) says the
manufacturers there have been COM
PEELED to inform their customers that
they have all the business they can at
tend to. Congress can not afford to lis
ten to these men. A renewal Of the
duty on quinine would very properly
be regarded by the people as an out
rage. Itwould pay 100000 or $780,
600 into the pockets of four or five per-
sons without any benefit to the nation
al treasury, and at the expense Of the
suffering poor.

A curious case of forgery is that of
DIR. Whiteford. in England. One Chas.
Shurety was under sentence of death
in Newgate prison, the day for the ex-
ecution being fixed for January 5. DIR.
Whiteford. who interested himself in
the case, was convinced that Shurety
was an innocent man, and that if more
time was given him he would be able
to prove this innocence. The result
was that on January 5 the warden at
Newgate who had the execution of
Shurety in charge received only a few
minutes previous to the time appoint
ed for the execution, stay OF proceed
ings, purportirg to be signed by the
Under Secretary of State. This docu-
ment, upon examination, was shown
to be forgery, executed by DIR. White
ford, purely from philanthropic mo-
tives. The case is being prosecuted,
and the doctor is likely to spend a few
weeks with his friend Shurety in New.

Mr.. Hendricks, Of Indiana, was In
st. Louis recently and was interviewed
by representative Of the Pose-Dis-
patch, although he manifested an un-
willingness to talk about political mat
ters except such as referred more Inn
mesliately tn his State. He said the
contest in Indiana would be lively
one, but will hinge more upon the ques-
ton Of State Government than upon
any national topic. Indiana 10 what
may be called n c.ose State, the major
ity at the last election having been
about 5000 tor the Democrats, and he
had no doubt about the result being In
their favor this time. He does not
think that the negro exodus into Indi-
ana will affect the Democratic majori-
ty materially, rs II has altogether ceas-
ed now, and he does not think more
than two thousand came. In his opin-
ion New York and Indiana are the
States upon which the coming Presi-
dental conflict will turn, as he looks
upon Pennsylvania and, Ohio as GER
tainly Republican, and he don't think
there Is much chance of the Democrats
carrying Connecticut. Oregon, he
thinks, ought to go. Democratic and
probably will, and rs for Californis
no one can possibly say how II Is go
ing, for parties have become 80 mixed
up that they will care very little for
the national contest. In regard 70
New York Mr.. Hendricks says that .
Western Democrat who has preserved
the respect of the party, and who Is In
every sense Of the word leader, can
carry IL against any Republican candi-
date that can be nominated. Mr..
Washburn. he thinks, will be the choice
of the Indiana delegation ut Chicago,
as he has been gaining strength In n
wonderful way of late: but then 1t 10
idle for any other Republican to seek
the nominatian, as Grant will get 1t as
"A matter Of course. He thinks that
Blaine would make good fight, but
he cannot win, while Sherman Is dead
beyond the hope OF resurrection.
When the tide of business began to re-
vive and money poured into the coun-
try the whole credit for the good times
was claimed for Sherman and his re-
act. and he rode into great
under false pretenses. But
the intelligence Of the country awoke
to the situation at last, and saw that
the prosperity was the result Of Tho
economy and thrift and good luck Of
the community, and not Of the fore
sight and statesmanship Of John Sher-
man.

Cheap Paper i'm Canada.

Mr.. James Stewart, editor of the
Montreal Herald, who was recently
in New York, states that since the adj
vance i'm the price of American paper
took place, some of the Canadian COM
panies had been charging from one
fourth to one-half cent more per pound
than was previously demanded. The
present rate for "news print" he says
ia as low as six cents, and for the past
eighteen months the rates have been
six AMI half to seven cents. The
cause of this slight rise is that there
has been marked advance I'm the
price of chemicals entering into the
making of paper. Since the chemicals
have gone up in price, rags and other
paper stock are relatively much cheap
er than twelve months ago. If the
prices which ruled i'm Canada some
years ago were to hold now, i'm view of
the increased prices in other depart
ments, it would, he thinks, be a seri-
Gus matter to publishers. He says
that if the United States tariff was not
almost prohibitory, the publishers of
American newspapers could now get
paper at seven and q half to eight
cents pound from Cana..a. At the
present time large consumers of paper
in the United States are buying i'm Cam
ada at seven and fourth to eight
cents, and laying it down IN New York
after paying thirty-five per cent. duty.
At the present rate in the Unite Il
States the Canadian makers are I'm
or almost doing so, the
American mill men, even with the
tariff against them. Since the rise
the Canadian paper mills have had
an enormous rush Of business, and
their producing capacity has for some
time back been taxed to the utmost.
They are shipping paper to st. Louis,
Chicago, New York and Boston. In
fact the Canadian paper makers are
having flush times just now.

A meeting of representatives of the
color ed race was held in Washington
the other day, at which the exodus
question was discussed. It was assert.
ell by a delegate frcm Indiana that
about 5000 negroes had settled in that
State i'm the past six months, and that
these were about as many as it could
stand just at present. The gemeal be-
lief expressed 10y those present at the
meeting was that if the exodus move
ment revived, it would he towards
Ohio, and that "the Buckeye State"
would get considerable colored addi-
ton to its population.

Bishop Haven's mantle appears to
have fallen on the Rev. J. J. Dean,
who, in q sermon before the New York
Conference Of the Methodist Church,
last week held up Grant as an example
of true greatness. At this, we are told,
there was applause by listening preach
eTs. The Rev. Mr.. Dean went further;
he is reportei as saying he saw no good
reason why Grant should not be elect
ed third term; and then there was
more applause. Perhaps. after the
work OF the Conference is finished, the
prea achers will reorganize as a Grant
Campaign Club. There are many
of Methodist laymen who
look with growing disfavor upon these
exhibitions.

tFrom the New Orleans Democrat
in comparing the list Of Senators and
Representatives In the Thirty-NInth
Congress 1S65) with that Of the pres
ent Congress, we find, as might be ex-
pected, many changes In the strength
Of parties as well as I'm the membership.
Twenty-Five States were represented
in the Senate and House In 1855, but
the eleven Southern States having
been admitted to representation and
two new States admitted into the
Union, the whole number now 10 thir-
ty-eight. In 1855 the Democrats had
22 per cent. OF the Senators and 22.28
per cent. in the House; now they have
55 .26 per cent. i'm the Senate and 50.11
in the House. In 1865 the House had
lS4 members; in 1880 1t has 293.
The most noted Senators In 1895 were
Sumner, Wilson, Reverdy johnson.
Zach. Chandler, Ben Wade and John
Shei man, all of whom have since died
except John Sherman, who Is now

of Wisconsin, and Trumbull, Of Illinois,
were In 1865 with the Republicans, but
are now with the Democrats. Thomas
A. Hendricks was Senator I'm 1865.
Anthony, of Rhode Island, is the
only Senator Of 1865 who Is now Sen-
tor.
In the House were Blaine, Rollins.
Dawes, Conkling, Garfield, Voorhees,,

Radical Methods.
A meeting Of the committee Of nino gentle.
men representing the protestant churches of
South Washington was held at Ryland chapel
last evening, and took the inltiatory steps In
the war to be waged upon tho liquor dealers
by the church people in the city. Rev. Mason
Noble presided and Mr.. William X. Hunt
acted us secretary. An appeal to the citizens
Of South Washington "in behalf Of good order
and temperance" was unanimously adopted
by the committee. The appeal, after citing
the requirements of the law governing the
Issuance Of liquor licenses, states that
the responsibility for tho establishment
and patronage Of these grogshops does
not rest alone upon tho parties who sell
or those who drink strong drink, but upon
the neighbors who live around the places
where 1t is sold, and by their voluntary act
consent to the sale of IT," and appeals to each
citizen for help in preventing a continuance
of the evil "by following the line Of action
indicated below:
u. DO not put your name to any petition II
asked TO do so. You can decline without do.
ing any harm to any one.
-. II you have signed before reading this
apncal go aud ask to have your name re-
moved from the petition.
"3. IL you discover that any one else has
placed your name thorc without your consent
report the fact to either Of the committee
below. Arrangements are made to publish
all these petitions, with the names attached,
so that the business may be conducted in
strictly legal way this coming year"
IL was resolved to have 5000 copies Of the
appeal printed. South Washington was di-
vidcd into districts aud a committee appointed
to examine every lccuse and sec If the law
was complied with. 1t is understood that ac.
tiou similar to that taken by the South WASH
ingtOn churches will be taken by all of the
protestant churches in the District.
