our payrolls. This is large number for Washington

take ten more clerks experienced hands only) we
only knew where to get them. We do not employ all
these for show. and must have work to do it.

Stunning that the closure resolution would be car

tation Of cheap foreign steel; 50 far from
this, he pleads that the cheap foreign steel
furnishes the material for manufacturers
dependent upon it, and that to increase the
duty on the imported metal would cripple
these industries and produce the very
calamitous consequences which a year
before he had predicted on the other side.
In fact, the doughty >protectionist has
turned somerset. He is still a protection
list; that is, he is still IN favor of high
duties on the. fabrics which he manufae-
lures, but in favor of very low duties on
such articles as furnish the materials for
his manufactures.
His extraordinary conduct illustrates one
very important truth in the tariff dispute.
wiz. That successful manufacturing re-
quires cheap materials; that to tax these
materials is to discourage manufactures
that tariff which protects one industry
therefore Injuries another, and that while
high protective duties benefit certain
favored manufactures, these benefits are in
the long run far outweighed by the burden
they involve to other kindred industries
and the general interests of the country. =.

HER BIRTH PLACE.

Emma Abbott has been singing in Peo-
ria and telling the people there how glad
she is to be back to her native place, and
the Transcript of that place tells a very
affecting story about the place where she
was born. All this would be exceedingly
pleasant and utter if we could only be sure
that it settled the question, but the very
next time that Emma sings in Rock Island
she viii be in ecstatic bliss because once
more she has been permitted to tread her
native soil; and other places have the same
story. In fact it has got to be a question
whether Emma was born in dozen places
or more, or whether she was born at all.
Her ability to adapt her story to the loeali-
ty, however, is good deal like accelerated
English wit who used to have story
about duel in dark room between an
En- glishman and Frenchman; the English
man CROPPED his way in the darkness and
shot up the chimney, bringing down the
Frenchman. When / tell this story in
France" said the narrator, II always put
the Englishman up the chimney.

GUILTY.
Whatever may be said

Whatever may be said of the average
American jury. the one in the Guiteau case
has done much to lift the cloud that of late
years has been hanging heavily over what
was once called the buiwark of our liber-
ties. Twelve good and true American cit
liens have shown a willingness and an
ability to punish criminal for his crimes
that is certainy praiscworthy.
There is another feature of the case that
the American people can well congratulate
themselves about. Although it was u
cause for grumbling and productive of
mneh dissatisfaction that Judge Cox CON
Quoted the trial with the laxity and disre-
gard of strict rules that he did; yet mas
much as he stretched all points in favor of
the prisoner, there is no possibility of the
setting aside of the verdict by an appeal
to a higher court whatsoever shedeth
mans blood, by man shall his blood he
shed, aud although the means of taking
off in this instance viii be by halter, yet
the statement yet holds good There viii
be one less republican vote in the country
after July next.

CHICAGO JUSTICE.

IF Carter Harrison is to be believed, Il
criminals chances in Chicago depends a
good deal more on luck and temporary
circumstances than on the merit or justice
of the case. 1t was suggested to him by a
newspaper man that some of the justices
of the peace, judged by their administra
tion of the law, were unfit to preside on
the bench. "There is good deal of differs
ence," said his honor. Take Justice
Walsh for instance. If he goes into court
in the morning and has not had his Gus
'tenlary drink he is apt to very severe the
first hour. Then he begins to get mellow
and for awhile his sentences are light.
But just before he mellows and just after,
his sentences are apt to be very unequal.

ANTI-MoNoPoL1sTs.

The Chicago Times has the right idea of
the anti-mononpoly pretensions of John
Kelly. It says:
t'Mr. Edward Kearney and General
Spinola, the representatives OF the Tam
many democrats at Albany, are circu-
lating an article from The albany Times,
which purports to state the exact position
of the Tammany statesmen in the dead
lock. According to this, the Tammany
members make no demands and have no
axes to grind; they simply stand on rock
rooted and mountain buttressed princi-
Piles, aud declare that they will stand out
till next January, if necessary, but they
will never surrender. The principle by
which they are determined to stand is OPP
position to monopelies, by which seems to
BE meant all railroad companies. They
will never vote for monopolists on an
anti-monopoly platform. This is a no
BILE attitude, beyond question, but the Tam
many statesmen have so recently made
their debut as the high minded and con-
scientious opponents of monopolies, and
termined foes of the regular democracy
without regard to the monopoly question,
that there is general surprise and some in
credulity at their present professions They
may be perfectly sincere in their protesta-
tons, but there would be more general
belief in this had they but just separated
from the regular democracy, and separated
on the issue When they threw the state
into the hands of the republicans in 1879,
when they told the national convention in
1880 that they would bolt if Mr.. Tilden
was nominal ed, they did not profess to be
the friends of the people" and the enc
mics of the ''monopolies" Their anaag-
onism to the regular democracy antedated
their antagoRism to monopolIes. In the J
Times they are represented as believing
that the wicked corporations are behind
the regular democracy in the efforts to
control the legislature but they are also |
as complaining that the Tilden
men put none but anti-Tammany men on
guard, and they want to know If that is |
kind and coneiliatoryi they think conces- |
sions should be mutual Possibly, if the |
Iilden men would concede a few offices to
the Kelly men, the Iatter's fears of mo-
nopolists would be allayed, and they could |
be induced to voteafor a combination tick
ct, even ifsthere We're few tools of the
seulless corporations on it..

how CIRCUMSTANCES ALTER CASES.

The quarrel between protectionists over
| the duty on imported steel blooms fur
nishes fresh and striking proof of the.
thorough selfshness which animates the
so-called movement for the .sprotection of
American labor" When the present tariff
was arranged the steel bloom. which is
melted metal rolled and hammered into a.
billet, was unknown, and when the impor-
tation of it began, the treasury department
was called upon to determine the duty it
should pay. 1t decided very properly that
blooms are ''manufacture of steel not
otherwise provided for and therefore
subject to duty of 45 per cent. This is
about S13 ton, the duty on steel rails
being S2S ton The Pennsylvania steel
manufacturers, with Mr.. D. j. Morrill, at
their head, protested vehemently against
this ruling admitting foreign blooms at so
low a rate; steel blooms can be easily
rolled into rails and Mr.. Morrill, deelar ed.
ment's ruling, cheap foreign steel would
take the place of the American art .cle and
100000 American workmen, carr ing wages
to the amount of 500, 000, 900 q year, would
be thrown out of employment and reduced
to pauperism. The predict I'd calamity
did not take place, however. Instead of
it, many abandoned iron rail- mills, found
that they could roll the cheap foreign
blooms into steel rails and make good
profit at it, and the deaaa1a,d fer steel rails
was SO great that it took all the product
of the old iron rail mills and of the regular
steel mills to supply lt-and even then
some foreign steel had to be imported It
was found, too, that the foreign
steel blooms could be easily and
prof1tably drawn into wire and manufact-
nred into other useful forr as Mr.. Morrill,,
himself had a wire-works at Joknstown,
Pa, and seeing the advan tage of 1t. went

fal &AS4GsA Il ssASS r
The opinion of this senator is enter
tanned by most of the members of the New
York Democracy None of them believe
that the Tammany senators or assembly,
men will vote for the Democratic caucus
nominees or that the Democrats will yield
to Tammany's demands. They think that
the organization will be brought about by
the aid of Republican votes. We shall make
no bargain with Republican senators for
the division of offices in the senate, Dem
ocrat who is opposed to Tammany said,
I'VE have a Democratic majority in that
body, and therefore, cannot afford to give
offices to the Republicans. The senate
can get along without a pro tempore pres
ident or new clerk, but to do business
must have committees. Could we elect a
Democratic president of the senate we.
would permit him to name the committees,
but owing to the action of the Tammany
senators we can't choose president. We
shall try and have the
committees appointed by a
vote in open senate. This cannot be done
by the Democrats without the votes of at
least two Republican senators while the
Tammany senator's oppose US; but some of
us think that we can so make up the
committees. as to command the
support of nearly all the Repub-
lican senator's"
Other Democratic senators and some of
the county Democraey's leading men are
still of opinion that two or three Republi-
can senators will vote for the Democrats
nominees for president and clerk of the
senate. a
The Republican politicians in this city
say emphatically that no Republican sena-
tors will vote for Democratic officer, and
that no bargain is likely to be made be-
tween the Republican and Tammany sena
tors, They admit. however, that an APP
pointment of the senate committees by the
votes of Democratic and Republican sena-
tors is possible. 49,
