WHO DID ITf

Il is said that Republicans Of the Senate
= feel soren because the Republicans of the
House nave VOTED almost unanimously to nom
concur. if the sena.es Tariff bill comes before
them. But this implies ignorance of the nctua
state If the vote in the Senate. The Repub-
hcans in that body voted mere than two to one
against the vital amendments relating to iron
and steel, which gave to the Senate bill its Pc
culiar character.
The decisive motion was made by Mr
MCPHERSON, Democrat from New-Jersey.
When Mr.. Sherman asked modification OF the
duties on iron and steel, urging that the bill az
| # stood wonld in that respect prove fatal either
to the bill or to important Industries, 1t was
evidcnt that most of the Republicans of the
Senate were of his opinion. But Mr.. McPher-
SON urouosed an amendment of the amendment,
changing the rates entirely, and arguing, not
with correctness III some respects, that his
proposition was "a compromise" between the
rates proposed by Senator Sherman and those
previously adopted by the Senate, which he
acknowledged had been too low. This Otion
by Democratic Senator came to a vote with
out much explanation or debate, and the first
and essential part Of it was adopted yeas 80,
nays1 But only eight Republicans voted in
the affirmative: Senators Hoar and Dawes of
Massachusetts, Hawley and Plat Of Connecti-
out. ingalls, ard Plumb Of Kansas, Van Wyck
of Nebraska, and Window of Minnesota. On
the other hand, nineteen Senators, all Repub
licans. voted against the amendment, namely {:
Messrs. Aldrich, Allison, Anthony, Cameron Of
Wisconsin, Conger. Frye, Hale, Hill, Jones of
Nevada, Logan, Mcmillan, Miller of Califor-
MIA. Miller of Ncw-York, Mitchell, Morrill,,
Rollins, Sewell, Sherman and Tabor
No one will have any doubt on which side the
weight of Republican experience, intelligence
and influence was thrown on this vote. On the
next vote. which was designed to carry out
corresponding change in other items, the vote
WAS yeas 81, nays 10, and here only 8 Re-
nublicans voted yea, and 10 nay. The Sen
atOrs from Connecticut, who had voted for
the previous amendment, voted against this
one. but Nessrs. McDill OF Iowa and Mcmillan
of Minnesota, who had not voted before, voted
ave. with Mr.. Allison of Iowa. On the other
hand. the nays were reinforced by the C0nnec-
ticut Senators, and Mr.. kellogg, of Louisiana,
who had Deen absent, though MIR. Miller OF
California was absent on the second vote.
These two votes defeated the effort to obtain in
the Senate safer provisions in respect to the
iron and steel interest. and both were carried,
on motion OF a Democrat, by the support Of
every Democrat tic Senator voting. and against
the votes of more than two-thirds of the Re-
pubhcans voting. The two votes we've as fol-

that it should be amended SO that its provisions
should apply to all the cities of the State. The
inevitable consequence was that when the bill
came up for final reading it was thus amended.
And then, under the operation of the previous
question, it WIS put through. Of the seventy
one members that voted for it only ten were
Republicans. Each party was thus true to its
record.

PROHIBITION FORESIG Ut 1ND UIND>IGHI
II ~ To be assumed that the members Of the
Prohibition party of the State aim by their con-
certed political action TO put stop to the sale
of rum. But THE TRIBUNE pointed ont to
them last fall that they were pursuing policy
which rcioiccd the hearts of every runs seller
within orr borders They insisted upon run
ming u distinct and separate ticket OF their own
in nearly every county. although 1t WAS patent
10 every intelligent and experienced observer
that the only effect of 80 doing Was TO
lessen the chances of the Republicans carrying

given to the Prohibition candidates, III the ABB
srncc of n third ticket. would undoubtedly have
been cast for the Republican nominees. The
record of the Democratic party IN this State has
been IN tho direction Of free rum. The record
of the Republican party has been IN the uppo-
site direction. For years the Democrats, being
in the minority in the Legislature, made dcsper-
ate but futile efforts to bring about radical
changes in the excise laws Why were those
efforts futile7 Simply because the Republican
majority stubbornly and persistcntly resisted
them. II follows that to elect a Democratic AS
sembly last fall, the Senate that held over being
also Democratic was to give the free rum OLE
mcnt its long soueht-for opportunity.
All this we were ut pains to set before the
Prohibition leaders. But they would have
none of our cOunsels. For reasons not Visible
to the average naked eye nor yet to the average
eve clothed upon with double convex lens,
they concluded that it was the part of wisdom
for the ProhibliOnists, Designating the inunc-
ton, let your moderation be known unto all
men, to make An Incorporate exhibition Of
their dscrcton- hooking zeal. Accordingly
they declined to withdraw their Assembly
nominees, insisting. save in II few cases, upon
keeping them in the field until the polls closed
in November.
