FIXING THE TARIFF.

II the republican party is to stand
or fall on It's action In reducing
tariff taxation II will certainly
fall. The exhibition which ito repre-.
s~entatives are making of themselves
at Washington in the effort to please
the monopolists is enough to disgust
the country and destroy what remains
of confidence In Its management Of
public affairs. At the last election
the verdict Of the country from one
end to the other was that the people
are taxed too heavily and that q lower
and more equitable scsle of duties was
necessary to relieve the public of need.
less burdens.
There was no cry raised for free
trade, but there was a universal do
mand for a lower tariff. Revision, not
repeal, was the general request which
thousands Of intelligent republicans
Joined In making.
The debate over the tariff bill has
shown that cowardice and greed are
the ruling motives In the present con-
gress. Men who know what the de-
mands of the country really are, fear
to offend their local constituency by
votinga reduction which might affect
unfavorably q mill or factory In the
county where they hail from. The
worst feature Of the business La that
the tariff is being fixed" by the
agents of powerful interests directly
affected by the measure. The lob.
bies Of powerful industrial monop-
olies rule the situation and dictate the
schedules which receive the afirma.
tive votes of both houses. The Iron
interest, the steel interest, the ore In.
terest, the lumber and lead interests,
the sugar and wool interest and q
score Of other interests are all repre-.
sented, and are compromising and ad.
~justing duties SO hat there shall be
no essential reduction Of taxes In any
event. The pickpockets have packed
the jury and taken possession
of the bench. The chickering's and
logrolling between the attorneys
OF these powerful interests in the
lobby and on the floor are q disgrace
to congress and the nation. The tar.
lit that ia being concocted Is merely 9
compromise Of these great interests q.
to the amount of tax they shall levy
on the people of che United States.
j. With a forlorn hope before them a
the opening of the present congress
. 1t looks 81 If the republican party wa
. bent through Its leaders on committing
I political suicide This act will be al
the more criminal because 1t will turf

less fitted to rule 1t than the repub

rate slavery will soon be as extinct in

selling to reflect, when we consider the

1t is seriously proposed to duplicate
the Suez canal. 1t is 300 feet wide on
the surface, but the banks slope so
gradually that the channel at the bot
tom is only 200 feet wide. The earth
taken out of this ditch was left on the
banks, of course, SO that the removal
of one of these banks to widen the
channel would be more expensive than
the opening Of q ley channel parallel.
The cost of this would DO oonsiderably
less than that of the first, when termi-
nal docks had to be constructed and
provision depots all along. The new
canal would be used for vesse lspaasing
In one direction, and the old for those
passing in the opposite. The plan hiss
not been definitely adopted, but it Is
under discussion, owing to the fact
that the increase of traffic necessitates
q constant outlay for the extension of
sidings where vessels can pass.

part. Another attempt to stimulate

Parliament opened on Tuesday.
The speech from the throne, as usual,
was non.committal and afforded little
information. Notice was given that
measures would be introduced by the
cabinet for the creation Of q court Of
criminal appeals, for preventing COR
ruption al elections and to st care to
English and Scotch tenants suitable
compensation for agricultural i'm
provements. No mention is made In
the cable reports of q proposed ex-
tension of the francise In the coun
tries, but the subject cannot we'll be
postponed. Bradlaugh had made
every preparation for a great popular
demonstration attendant upon his
third attempt to take his seat in the
house of commons, and about 1000
gathered around Trafalgar square as
he entered the parliament house. He
was permitted to take his seat without
obstruction and shortly after, the an.
nouncement was made of the intro.
duotion Of q bill allowing members
elect either to affirm or take the oath.
If this is passed Mr.. Brad
laughs stock In trade is gone and the
electors Of Northampton will have the
satisfaction Of finding themselves rep.
resented by the great English radical
undisturbed by his annual expulsion
on purely religious grounds. Mr..

The vague terms in which the queen
alluded to Egyptian affairs threw no
new light upon the situation. More
may be learned from Lord Daffsrin's
dispatch, which Informs hisgovernment
that the policy respecting Egypt must
assume one of two forms--either the
country must be annexed to Great
Britain, or be given a government OF
Its own, and be taught how to manage
1t. The latter, he argues, will take SO
much time that the country might be
regarded NJ practically annexed, even
though 1t be temporarily. IL Is plain
to be seen that England Is gradually
feeling her way to q permanent ocou
pany Of Egypt. The causes which
induced the British to go to tina
country will keep them there. British
interests In the Suez canal and q 30
cured highway to India were the i'm
polling motives Of the conquest, an,
