Imports OF Iron.

4NOFtN 4HHSflC(ln nubuyuCtuECF.
The imports from Great Britain for the
first half of the year, contain some inter.
esting figures The pig iron imports were
237 ,Sli tons, an increase of GO, $50 tons over
the figures of the first half of the previous
year, and less than one. half the total for
the Same period in 1880, when We imported
ass. 600 tons. Railroad iron footed up to
123, 442 tons, falling off from 1881 of IS, S67
tons, and from the figures of 1880 OF 4,6i6
tons Old iron shows total of So, $50 tons,
a slight increase over the 4i,643 tons Of
1881, and still far below the
III 500 tons Of 1880. Unwrought
steel nearly doubled, being 92,99O tons
against Is, 345 tons last year, and %, 5S4 tons
in 1850. The other iron imports were COM
paratiyely light, though all showing in
crease over 1881. Bar, angle, rod and bolt
shows l., 1888 tons against 5,271 last year;
cast and wrought, 1855 tons against 1922;
hoop, sheet, ETC., Is, 1855 tons against IL $40
in 1881. There has been a falling off in
railroad iron only; in all other lines, de-
spite the greater facilities of the country,
the import totals have increased, though,
save in pig iron, in a proportion which
would not be particularly noticeable, were
it not for the fact that our own makers are
entirely capable of supplying all home
markets with demand much stronger than
it has been during the past half year.

THE standing of the next Congress
man from the first district of West Vir-
ginia-especially if he be a Wheeling
man-should be made to depend on his
securing good round installment ofthe
River and Harbor appropriation for inn
proving the stream which runs down
Twelfth street during rainstorm. A
governmental inspection of that water
course will demonstrate that such an
appropriation would not only be con-
stitutional, but according to the pre-
cedents of the last bill, of supreme ma
tiOnal Importance.

1t may be safe to assert that il each OF

and coal trades had 500 or 5000 in hand
that no strike would have taken place.
Men will sacrifice the future earnings OF

rHE BOOKS ARE CLOSED.

Whatever may have been the faults
and failures of individual members Of
the past Congress the responsibility for
all measures of legislation, or lack of
legislation, must rest upon the dominant
party.
With Senate and House and Chief
Executive all Of the same political faith
and abundantly able to carry such laws
for the reduction of the public burdens
and the Improvement Of our civil adj
ministration as the intelligence and
craftsmanship of their party conceived
to be necessary, the Republican party,
and it alone, must stand responsible be-
fore the country for the record which
this Congress has made. .......-.>. ~
1t viii not do to say that individual
Democrats, or majority of them, as
sisted in the passage Of this or that
measure. Individual members have a
responsibility to their constituencies for
their Individual action and record, but
the country will and must hold the
dominant party responsible for the legis-
lation of the session, because that party
only had control oft. That party only
appointed the committees, mapped out
the work Of the session and determined
what measures should and should not
become laws.
The end has come. The record is COM
plete. The Republican party now goes
before the country for verdict upon its
work, and it may fairly be expected
that this verdict, as expressed in the
Congressional elections, will be re-
Duke to party for the most vulnerable
record any Congress has ever made for
itself.
That record is not less vulnerable for
what has been done than for what is
left undone. That which will be reck-
oned most to its discredit will be the
neglect to modify existing laws so as to
abate some part of the Sl5O,OOO,OOO OF
surplus revenue drawn unnecessarily
from the people. They have allowed
the laboring classes to remain under
this unnecessary strain, while voting
away this surplus to jobs and schemes
devised for personal and partisan ends.
The most they attempted was a ridicu-
lous bill reducing taxes On perfumery,
&C., but not relieving the people of any
important part of their burdens, and
they could not even agree to this
reduction. This part Of the record has
Justly attracted the attention of the
whole country and stands without pal
liation or excuse.

THERE seems to be some likelihood
that before great while the rate of let
ter-postage all over the country will be
reduced to two cents per half ounce.
The House Committee on Postoffices
and Post Routes appointed a sub
committee of three toconsider the feast
bility and expediency of so doing, and
as each of the three gentlemen to whom
the subject has been referred is known
to be in favor of the reduction suggest
ed, no supernatural degree Of prescience
is necessary to forecast the nature Of
their report.

serve the country L am permsnently out oil
public life, and L want it understood that
my little orbit Of life is henceforth bounded
by the courts / attend, my law-ofice and my
sweet little home in the country. am not an
avowed candidate or a secret asPirant for any
office on earth. 1 do not belong to the black
horse cavalry, and never did. L have been
much in the public service, and came out of
it not quite as rich as Jay Gould. The
rainy day is coming, and am trying TO get
ready for it. The arena of craftsmanship is
very attractive. But then, aspiration
should never overresch capacity; and then,
again, the Pontine marshes of po'house poll
tics lie on the road to Rome. This is enough.
