DEMOCRATIC REFORM.

Mr.. Frank Hurd, being In some sense an
apostle of the adyersarles of protection, has
been called upon to exDound his views. lie con-
ceiyes that he was elected exclusively as
champion of a tariff for revenue only" and de-
clares that in his canvass he discussed that
tonic alone, and let every other question take
care of ITSELF He thinks that the tariff fight
has hardly begun, and that "the Wesr is go
ing to uphold his ideas as heartily as the voters
of his district did. As Mr.. Hurd was elected by
bare plurality of 1875, at an exceptional elec-
tiop in whcb the Democrats carried Ohio by
10000 plurality on the liquor question, the owl
dence of an overwhelming outburst of public
sentiment on the tariff in MIR. Hurd's district Is
not strictly conclusive.
He makes proclamation, however. that he Is
going to introduce q bill OH the very first day OF
the session to reduce the tariff to revenue
basis. What he means by revenue basis.
moreover, he is kind enough to expIain-and
that is more than any other of his associates In
the Democratic army of tariff-reformers has
yentured to do. To begin with, lie proposes
a duty on tea, coffee and spices. Then ~ he
wants all raw materials admitted free OF duty
and hy raw materials he means "all substances
to be used in manufactures upon which skilled
labor has not been expended" This is one OF
the definitions that do not define anything
MIR. Hurd would find it more difficult to make
people understand what is skilled labor than to
make them understand what are raw materials.
In fact, he does not seem to know himself, for
he includes copper and iron ore, wool and
lumber as raw materials. But does he imagine
that skilled MINER or luInberman can do no
other or better work than an unsklled lab0rer
If so, he would do well to take miners tools or
an axe and try it himself long enough to clarity
bis ideas. A skilled wool-grower can make
money where one not skilled would starve.
Raw materials, according to Mr.. Hurds deiini-
ton, would not amount to anything.
Next, Mr.. Hurd proclaims that "no article
u should be dutiable the like of which isproduced
q or manufactured here and sent TO foreign mar

Police Commissioner Matthews has been this

a bill increasing the number and cost of the
police force. His proper place is at his post in
this city. Heads of departments ought never to
be seen IN tho lobbies of the State Capitol, and
ought never to be in Albany during tho session

New-York tribune., 1883-03-16

At the last session of the Legislature Mr.
Jacobs and other of the Democratic senators
declined to vote on the question of the passage
of the Railroad Commission bill so long as tue
bin lodged the power OF appointing the
commissioners in Governor Cornell. Ihcy
did so for the avowed reason that
they desired to defeat the bill, which, I'M
der the Constitution, could not pass unless
three-ffths of all the mem bers were present
and they argued that the only admissible evI-
depce of the presence of legislators Is
afforded by the roll. Lieutenant-Governsr Hos
kina. although friendly TO the bill, decided that
since it did not appear from the roll that quo
rum was present, 10 quorum could be re-
earded as present Accordingly the bill as it
then stood failed because of this exercise by the
Democrats of what they claimed was their par
lamentary right. This year, under precisely
similar circumstances, Lieutenant -GoTernor
Hill-who remarked in his inaugural address III
January that "partisan considerations shoulu
be secondary in our efforts for the pubic veal
and that it would be his aim imparually 10
enforce the rulesr-decides that Senators VINO
refuse to vote can be counted with the Votlng
Senator'S to make up quorum, while Jaco ps
and the other Democratic Senator'S who STOOD
out against the Railroad Commission Dill OF IasI
year sustain the decision. Yesterday when
Senator f. Lansing offered resolution to recall
the bill in dispute from the Assembly on the
ground that it had not been legally passed by
the Senate, no quorum having been present,
Mr.. Jacobs had the unblushing hardihood to
move to refer the resolution to the Judiciary
Committee, his idea being of course, TO kill it.
If the record of the Tweed Senate contains any
thing in its way more unscrupulous than this
| we would be glad to have it pointed out.
