TIE CONFERENCES TAX BILL.

The report of the conference committee
on the tax and tariff bill, agreed upon yes
terday, is somewhat better than we had
reason to expect, but is by no means such
a measure as should pass. 1t reports
nearly all the senate amendments to the
internal revenue laws without change, but
increases the tariff on iron and steel to a
considerable extent, leaving the rate sub
stantially as it is at present, though the
classification is altered in some respects,
so as to make it appear to the cursory
reader that a reduction has been effected.
The rate on some grades of sugar is also
Increased, and the bill as a whole is said to
lie acceptable both to the iron and sugar
interests. And well it may be, for it was
drawn with special regard for their wants
and utterly without reference to the needs
OF the other interests Of the country.
It is said that there. is probability of
tie bill, as reported, passing both houses
before the close of the legislative session
tonight. If such a possibility exists it
will have been brought about through a
combination of those who for quarter of
a century have been robbing the people
for the benefit of a few special interests.
sour infant industries of few years ago
have grown to mammoth proportions I'M
der the protecting and fostering care OF
this system of legalized robbery. If they
ever needed protection at all-which is
exceedingly doubtful-the necessity has
long since passed, and the country is de.
manding that ali this special protection at
the cost Of the consumers shall cease. Il
is not the duty of the government to make
the RE cher and the poor poorer by tbs
impos of taxes upon the poor in order
that leh may profit.
The Dill as it stands Will afford the coun

Gov. CLEVELAND. of New York, has
vetoed the bill reducing the fares of the
elevated railroads of New York city, from
ten to five cents. The governor does not
give the best of reasons for his action,
basing it upon the right of invested CAPT
tai to protection. It is the belief of those
we'll informed that reduction of fares on
the roads in question would not reduce the
revenues, but would rather tend in the op-
posite direction. The veto will not be at

which would be the chief sufferers by q

TEE senate last night, after a long de-
bate, adopted the conference report on the
tax and tariff bill by vote of 80 to 81.
Mr.. Beck assailed the bill in most vigor-
Gus terms, and incidentally pointed out
that every one of Senator Sherman's
amendments which had been rejected by
the senate had been restored by the con-
ferrees. He was right in denouncing the
measure as an insult to the senate and the
American people, and the conferrees as
violating their oath in agreeing upon
such q monstrosity.

IN ARBTTRAkY lot.

Carter Harrison, the mayor of Chicago,
seems DESTROYS of distinguishing himself.
He has befliended the sporting fraternity
until that city is sort of haven of rest
for that fostering class of the community.
He now has telegraph war on hand in
which he has, as usual, spread himself in
true American eagle fashion.
1t was only with great difficulty that
the Mutual Union telegraph obtained per-
mission to enter Chicago at all, and If
seems their planting of poles was accom-
panied by an agreement to place their
wires under ground by March 1, 1888.
That date having arrived and the wires
not being underground Mayor Harrison
arbitrarily ordered them cut on yesterday,
and the business of the company at Chi
cago is practically abolished until this VIC
lent and evidently malicious embargo
is removed. Mayor Harrison has not only
cut the wires of the Mutual Union leading
into Chicago, but has detailed police to
watch breaks and see that repairers are
not allowed to reinstate. The action OF
the mayor is simply an arbitrary outrag'
and he ought to pay roundly for such al
interference with business interests.

whining On's Infancy.

Standing upon the pier at Pennsgrov Q
or upon the deck of palace steamer
plying either up or down the Delaware
and taking from thence birds eye
view of Wilmington, we cannot help
but arrive at the conclusion that the
city though now containing fifty thou
sand of population is still in its In
fancy. Only the choice high points
have been occupied as residences and
the choice lower points as manufacto-
ries and shipping stations. Spread ou'
from the confluence of the Christiana
and Brandywine is large extent Of
level country not suitable for dwelling
houses, but suitable for manufacturing
establishments. Some Of the most pros
porous sections of Philadelphia and
other large cities of our country, have
sprung up from just such territory as
the Cherry Island marsh and the low
lands on the south side Of the Christi
ana. There can be no doubt whatever
that all these low sections will in the
course of time be covered with large
manufactures of various kinds, sending
their smoke towards the skies from
towering chimneys, while the back
ground of the view will be a still farther
extension of beautiful suburban resi-
dences away back towards Mt. Salem
church and towards Newport. When
Philadelphia was city not larger than
Wilmington there were marshes and
highlands then surrounding it, but
which are now the most beautiful and
the best manufacturing sites in the
city. The future Of Wilmington is
Just as promising. Elgsmoor, River
side, DuPont's Pier and even New
Castle are but the advanced pickets up,
and down the river, of the army of i'm
provement that will crowd the Della
ware river for miles. The Christiana
will be to WILMINGTON what the Thames
is to London. AS we look and become
more interested the longer we looked
we thought that there Were boys at that
time padding in the water at our feet
and swinging and playing crOquet il
French's Grove who would be proprie-
tors of manufacturing establishments
that would be located on Cherry ls,anC
marsh. Wilmington only escaped be
ing what Philadelphia now is by viii
liam Penn going farther up the rivel

fluence Of the Schnylkill and the Della
ware, instead Of stopping at the

An Outrage.

We are informed that the contractor
for grading the new Baltimore and
Philadelphia Railroad through our city
has cut through Pennsylvania avenue,
so as to render it almost impassable.-
Such action certainly is most unwar-
ranted and ill-advised. The avenue
should not have been disturbed until
the grading was nearly completed the
whole length of the line, and then the
track should have been laid at once, 50
that travel would have been interfered
with as little as possible. That the ave-
nue. should be cut up and left in its
present condition any length Of time
is an outrage that should not be sub
mitted to- The contractor should be
compelled to fill it up and put it in
good condition without any delay
whatever. We call the attention of the
Street Committee, and also that Of the
City CommiSSioner,to the matter. We
hope they will look into it at once, and
teach the contractor that the city has
some rights which must be respected
The streets must not be dug up for any
purpose without first procuring author
ity from the City Council and the party
who trespasses upon them must pay the
penalty provided by the law. We dc
not desire to interpoSe any obstacle il
the way Of the early construction of the
Railroad, but the business of our eiti
zens must not be unnecessarily inter
rupted nor the ordinances of the city
be disregardrd and trampled under foo'
by any one i'll order to accomplish any
purpose whatever.

Free Trade.

The members of the Democratic party,
as rule, favor free trade with England,
as well as with every other country.
Free trade is very good in theory, but
it is not desirable in practice. There
is 10 country on the face Of the globe as
prosperous as our own, or in which the
people are better paid for their services
If the protective system was so unjust
and oppressive this would not be the
case. There Is abundance of cheap and
productive land in other countries, and
yet the emigration to our country
continues unabated. Men will 60 where
they can make money, and their pre-
ference for the United States Of Ameri-
ca is the best argument that can be
advanced in favor Of the protective
policy. If population was falling of,
if the working people were growing
poorer and there were other evidences
of decay, we should think there
was some truth in the arguments o.
free trade theorists. We warn thu
working people against the adoption
of their ideas, as they will lead tt
bankruptcy and prostration Of business
generally. It's worse than folly, it il
madness, to sacrifice the substance o
prosperity for opinions sake, or TO
the advantage of political Iemagogue
who never earned dollar by manua
labor in their life, and what is NOR
never expect to do so. Their profes
sions of love for the dear people
are based on the desire to serve them
selves, and so that end Is accomplishe'
they care not fig how much suffering
may ensue in consequence of thei
ill.starred political heresies. Let al

the trainers of our government, an'

for the benefit of England, as salutar
a lesson as Lord CORVALLIS was give
