POLITICAL INEQUALITY IMPOSSIBLE.

Plymouth Rock, and from the liberty loving
patriots who came 10 Delaware with William
Penn. 1t becomes a primal question Of
American manhood. 1t demands hearing and
settlement, and that settlement will indicate
the equality of American citizens in all per-

Northern man who fought to preserve the

fought TO destroy the Union. The contest Just

LYNN, MASS, Nov. 1S.-A crowd con-

Book & Co., awaiting the appearance of
"scab" strikers employed there. When
any of the obnoxious operatives appeared
they were greeted with jeers and insult
ing epithets and closely followed by the

Several arrests have been made in con-

REDUCTION IN THE MILLS.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 1S.-At a con-
ference of representatives of the leading
rolling mills in this city on Monday a re-
ductiOn of five and fOur-fifths per cent, in
the wages of puddlers and other working
men was agreed upon. The notice of the
reduction has not yet been sent out, but it
will take effect in two weeks. The reduc-
tiOn is the result of the present stagnation
in tho iron trade and in accord with an
agreement made between the masters and
operators when the sliding scale was es-
tablished. The reduction is very slight.
and it is not likely that the men will re-
fuse to accept it, although they refuse to
talk in advance of the official announce
ment from the mill owners. The reduc-
tiOn will affect about 5000 wOrkingmen in
this city.

THE OLD BRIGADIERs ON TRIAL.

Few persons IN the North realize how COM
pletely the chiefs of the rebellion WELD the
pOlitical power which has triumphed in the
late election. 1t is pOrtentous fact that the
Democratic Senators who came from the
States of the late COnfederacy all-and
mean all, without single exceptOn-per-
sOnally participated in the rebellion against
the National Government. 1t Is a still more
significant fact that in those States
no man who was loyal to the Union,
no matter how strong a Democrat he may
be to-day, has the slightest chance OF politi-
cal promotion. The one great avenue to
honor in that section is a record Of Jealous
service in the war against the government.
1t is certainly an astounding fact that the
section in which friendship for the Union in
the day of its trial and agony Is still politi
cal disqualification should be called now to
rule over the Union. All this takes place
during the lifetime of a generation that
fought in the war, and elevates into practical
command of the American Governments the
identical men who organized for its destruc-
tion, and plunged us into the bloodiest contest
of modern times. / have spoken OF the

ExPLANAToRY.-We have received letter
from Mr.. Street Bean of Drain, taking ex
ceptien to a statement in our last previous
issue from our Tinpot correspondent, IN ref
erence to parties going to the house of Mr..

and assaulting his son. Mr.. Bean says that
the parties in question were passing across
Mr.. Burns place, adjoining Aliens, and
there were two old boxes in the field, with
marks on them, and thst one of them fred
three times with little derringer, and the
other once with rife. He says they had
no intention of iniuring any one. After they
had got about a half mile away young Allen
turned loose on them and swore a string of
oaths that would have made Old Dan
ashamed of himself. While we are anxious
to get the county news, we do not desire to
do any one an injustice, and cannot allow the
columns of our raper to be used for personal
abuse of any one or to ventilate neighbor-
hood quarrels. II this matter was as stated
by our correspondent the court was the place
to settle the affair. If as stated by Mr.

The Morrison Tariff Bill.

The Morrison tariff bill, now before
congress, has created great furore
among the moneyed power. The pro-
tcctionists, who have special interests
to foster, that they may continue to
reap rich harvest at the expense of
the people, are using their utmost en-
deavor to defeat the BILL In order that
they may rest secure IN their ill-gotten
gains and continue to collect tolls off of
the great mass of consumers, are en-
deavoring to work up a public senti-
ment in opposition Of import duties.
These capitalists are now using the Re.
publican party for this purpose, and
the indications are that it is the settled
purpose of that party to defeat the bill.
The bill, in addition to placing many
of the nscessaries of life on the free
list, or as nearly free as is compatible
with the purposes Cf revenue, makes a
general reduction of at least twenty
per cent. OH all imports and places all
on advalorem basis, for the purposes of
revenue Nothing can BE- more equita-
bic and just than this measure. Under
the present high tariff more money is
collected than is required to defray the
| expenses of the government. Under
| the present extravagant administration
large surplus accumulates in the
treasury vaults. which so contracts the
currency as to stagnate business and
oppress the people. A reduction is ali.
solutely necessary and the method pro
posed by the Morrison bill is just and
practical solution of the question.
Whilst it is not in accord with the
visws of the absolute free trader, it is
opposed to the wishes Of high protec
lionists and is measure better calcu-
lated to give relief to the people and a
the same time leave the business inter
ests of the country unaffected than any
other that can be devised. It vii
make a gradual reduction in the price
of clothing and tie necessaries of life
and at the same time place the currenc,
of the country in circulation and Civ,
a healthier tone to the business inter
ests of the country. If the tariff bill
fails to become law, its defeat viii
lay at the door of the Republican part,
and the people will hold them responsi
BILE for the calamity.
