PITTSBURGH, Pa, May 25.-Last evening
Messrs. Mcintosh, Windus, Reisinger and
Oliver, who made up the committee ap.
pointed by the Trades Tribunal to visit the
lake ports, returned home. On reaching
CIeyelandthey ascertained that all the data
necessary could be obtained at that point,
hence they accomplished their mission
without having TO travel any further. II
was learned that about all the Pittsburgh
coal sent to the lake region is sent to Cleve-
land, therefore the information in regard
to the sale Of Pittsburgh coal was attainable
there. The committee en- starting out
made 1t rule that all data was to be col
lected With all the members present, and
any points gathered by one side alone are
not to be taken into consideration at the
Joint sessions. The committee appointed
10 look into the home trade have complet.
ed their investigations, but their report Is
vet to be prepared. Both committees will
meet separately in short time and i is
thought that another session G! the Tribu-
nal will be called early next week. Presi.
dent Schamipg, who has been over the
field, says that every pit that has resumed
work has check. weighman on the tipple.
This is considered one half Of the fight by

KENTUCKY Republicans did not find 1t
Necessary to "lay low" on the tariff ques.
zion. They endorsed the declaration OF
Republican principles as made at Chicago
in lSSO, but they did not switch of there.
ave favor the adjustment Of q tariff that
will not only provide revenue sufficient
TO delray the expenses Of the Government,
bat afford Just and reasonable protection
10 the industrial class Of our country with
ont being oppressive to the agricultural
md other interests Of our people" This is q
tarifffor protection. The tariffwhich affords
reasonable protection to our industrial
classes is all that any protectionist asks; and
the tariff which does that affords protection
tn all classes. The tariff which fails to
DO this brings disaster on the whole
country. For example, suppose our iron
mills to be wiped out by foreign competi'
ton. The farmer gets cheaper iron until
the foreign manufacturers are sure they
have Us at their mercy, but he has lost q
considerable part Of his best market, being
his home market, and what is to compen'
safe him for bis loss? 1t is Just as easy tc
suppose halta dozen industries wiped Out
mone, and under low enough tariff the
bigger job is no more difficult than the
lesser one.

EI.CoSGREssNAN DEzEXDoRF, Of Virginia,
has tetn writing very entertaining letters
denouncing Malone as boss and demand

assessments. He gives out the confidential
assessment circular which D Dtzendorfissued,

DsEendori demanded from every employe
in the yard days pay. Then he was not

reform. Ar. Burroughs thinks there il
chance to carry the State in 1884
unless men Of the Dtzendort stripe spoil
the prospect. II Virginia could be carried
BY the Republicans in straightout fight,
We should prefer to see 1t carried that way
II it can be carried only by conciliation, We
hope to see it carriedthat way. IfMahone
is breaking the law he ought to be stopped
and punished II he can be. But It doef
not sppear that Boss Dezendorf would be
better than Boss Malone. The trouble
with Dezendori is that he has lost his grip
md now his chAstened spirit yearns fol

Two candidates' Opinions-The Scott
Ulnnnr

Two candidates' Opinions-The Scott
Liquor Law.
NEw YoRk, May 25.-The Tribune's cor
respondent, who is now in Cincinnati,
presents to-day the views of two Of the
probable candidates for the Governorship
Of Ohio.
On most points Judge Foraker's and
General Ward'sopinions are Numerically
opposed to each other, and their views do
not differ more than their attitudes toward
the nominations. General Ward expects
the Democrats to select him, as his right,
10 view Of his past services to the party.
Judge Foraker thinks Re will be the nomi.
nee Of the Republicans, il the Convention
can not find better man. The Republican
aspirant for the Goyernorship speaks
frankly on all points. What he says about
the relation Of the Scott Liquor Law to the
canvass shows the inconsistency OF the
Democrats present attitude In relation to
the matter. General Ward, however, does
not refer 10 the liquor question at all. Each
man is confident Of the success oil his prin-
ciples this fall, but the Democratic veteran,
mindful OF the record OF his party, quail
ies his confidence by saying that the
Democrats will win unless they make
some egregious blunder."
Judge Foraker says he has made no can.
yass for the nomination, but he would
accept 1t, believing he had an equal chance
for election,
"There may occasionally" he says, "be
disquieting causes to divert the normal
vote, either through apathy or disaffection.
We had to contend with the former last
year, and 10 some extent with the latter.
The Pond Liquor Law was our stumbling
block. It contained a provision which
was unconstitutional, and the interests to
which 1t was offensive, also for other rea
sons, were able to rally fatal opposition to
1t. The defect has been remedied in the
Scott Law, and we shall present 10 the
people case that must commend itsell
when understood. 1t would be our task to
see that every voter in the State under.
stands It, and having been accomplished.
there need be no fear OF the result !
think any one who will examine the Scott
Law, and reflect impartiaIly upon it, must
concede that it Is just and equitable, and
that its operation will be most salutary. Il
will insure the closing up of many places in
which liquor is sold, and so in a measure
lessen the evils resulting from the traffic;
for among such places will be the lowest
and vilest. At the same time it will not
interfere with indulgence in liquor at
places where moderation Is more apt to be
the rule.

VISIT TO A coLoRKD CHURCH.


In the evening went round with my
Confederate friend, who takes kindly in,
terest in the colored people, to hear a very
fair sermon and some Of that peculiar but
TO mel attractive singing for which they
are noted. They sang the old.time hymns
and tunes, and with an JUNCTION, too, that
recalled the old and palmy days and scenes
Of Peachy Herron's camp grounds on
Mount Hope ridge, midway between
Bethany and West Middletown. That
emotional quaver in the negro voice-that
hoop.de. dooden.do in the chorus-has no
counterpart or competitor in the white race.
The colored people make that sort OF music
which hath charms to sooth the savage
breast While ii may not be "the music OF
the future," it is the music OF their peculiar
nature, and vastly more moving and melo-
dious than all the music OF the future to
which / have yet listened. 'sfhe- human
heart is plebeian thing" says the poet,
and these wild singers OF Africa have q
strange power to touch it when they get
3 going.
l looked on Frierson's congregation and
failed to discover anything Of the rag.tag
and bob tail in It. On the contrary, nearly
every body was well dressed, the females
especially, many OF whom, in true old
plantation style, wore q white or colored
handkerchief around their heads aud very
becoming calico or lawn dresses-all scru-
pulously clean. There was no evidence OF
squalid unthrift in that congregation, but
rather OF that tidiness and cleanliness
which are said to be next to godliness.
