Tariff Fractions.

The grand old party does not seem to be a
unit in the tariff question. Read what the
New York Times has to say on the subject.
For instance broad cloth dress-suit which
costs $50 in New York costs only S22 in Lon
don.
A heavy business suit which costs $50 in
New York costs but S13 in London.
A spring serge overcoat which costs $50 in
New York costs but $3.50 in London.
A winter beaver overcoat which costs S35
in New York costs but s145O in London.
A silk hat which costs S. in New York
costs but 50 in London.
These articles altogether cost in New York
$40. In London they cost but SOL. The
man who buys these clothes, therefore in
New York pays $40 more for them than he
could buy them for in London.
What causes the difference in the prices of
the two cities?
The man who pays, therefore, s14O for
clothes, on which he pays $40 taxes.
And where do these taxes goa
If the goods are manufactured in this
country not one cent reaches the treasury.
1t is simply $40 taken by law from the man
who buys Sol worth of clothes, and given
to the man who grows wool and the man
who makes cloth.
If the goods are manufactured abroad s79
goes to treasury which does not need it,
and which can raise all the revenue it re-
quires on whisky, tobacco, and articles of
luxury.
In either case the purchaser of the clothes
gets absolutely nothing for the S79 of the
$40 which he spends,
If on buying the clothes he had to pay
s61 to the clothier, and $40 directly to tax
collector, how long would he stand such ex-
tortion!
In result there is not particle of differ
ence between that system and the present
tariff system, according to which he is thus
unnecessarily and exorbitantly taxed, not
only on his clothing but ON nearly every
other necessity of life.
How long will the people of country
which claims to be free submit to this legal
lied robbery, which those who uphold it, and
grow fat upon it, are pleased to call ''pro-
tective" tariff?

THE KITCHEN QUESTION.

PROFESSIONALLY the tendency of the pres
ent time, in both sexes, is to skip manual
and domestic labor. This is really disease
of the times, and it is fruitful products are
vice and crime. Some of the advocates Of an
enlarged sphere for woman are doing much
to demoralize the sex, and to blight domestic
virtues. This is a working world and there
are spheres of labor for all, and when they
become irksome and are summed or aband-
oned the march of refined civilization and
elevated and infexible morality is blocked.
1t may be granted that many advocates OF a
new code of duties and powers for woman
are as sincere as they are earnest in their
work, but nevertheless in their mistaken
purposes they damage rather than benefit
their sex.
A debate few days ago in the Iowa State
Senate, brought out some forcible and vigor-
Gus remarks from Senator Bliss, who denied
that most of the things that were asked in
behalf of woman would benefit either sex,
but quite the reverse. The great problem he
said, coming Up for solution in this country
is the question of domestic help. "What
shall we do with our kitchensl" he asked,
filed the following answer:
ga woman is willing to go anywhere-into
stores, Offices, the public schools, and anywhere
under Gods heavens where she can earn enough
to feed and cothe herself exceptinto the kitchen.
1t is easier for man to marry ten wives than to
hire one servant girl. The American people are
fast becoming people practically without
homes. We are drifting into French flats, the
cooperative MISUNDERSTANDING in groups,
living like cattle, feeding out of a common
trough. The wome, the best institution ever
given to any people, is disappearing from our
midst. The momen are deserving 1t for the po-
litical arena. I want to say,' continued Senator
Bliss, who is the leading Republican in Scott
county, ''what 1 have not been permitted to say
in any Republican convention-that the Repub-
lican ship is being overloaded. 1t is in danger,
with Prohibition in the hold, protective tariff
amidship, and woman suffrage on deck The
danger point is reached. She is near the waters
edge, and is constantly settling''

THE BATTLE CRY VICTORY.

AS the time approaches for the meeting of
the National Democratic Convention, all
men who have become tired of Republican
rule, begin to realize the necessity for COM
plete and perfect harmony in their ranks.
There must be no discussions, and when the
nomination is made, and the platform an
nounced, every voter who loves his party and
his country must yield his private convictions
and unite in an earnest, enthusiastic support
Of the nominee.
That we may see just what is required to
be done to ensure success it will be well to
look at the roll of states and to forecast, as
far as possible, how the electoral vote will
stand. 1t is evident that upon seven of the
thirty -eight states the result of the campaign
of 1884 will depend. The electoral college
will be composed of 401 and this will render
POI necessary for choice. The reasonably
certain states for each party may be stated as
fellows:-

months. If as the unknown says he shears
the faintest whisper he must be informed Of the
general inquiry, which is growing louder and
louder, as to what precisely is his position
on the subject. In the course of
a long life Mr.. Tilden doubtless has
learned to distrust the politicians, but there
is no reason why he should not confde in the
people, 1t is well he should understand that his
course to them is not frank and open. Nothing
would be easier than for him to make known un-
mistakably what his intentions are. Is he able
to run, does he desire to run, does he mean to
run, will he consent to run?
What Mr.. Seymour says as to the wisdom OF
his nomination has force. Nobody will dispute
Mr.. Tilden's Presidential capacity if he is physi
cally and Intellectually what he was when Gov
ernor of this State. But the Democratic party
and the whole country would he exposed to ridi-
cule if, after his nomination, it should appear
that he was unable to go to Washington and oc-
cupy the Office, or to survive the strain of can
vass, or that he was unprepared even to be a
candidate. 1t is time for an end of cropping in
the dark. Let know just where we are and

duced and either placed upon the calendar
or referred to the committee of the whole.
General Grant visited the body, and took his
seat with friend on the floor of the cham
Der. The educational bill was discussed at
length, but no decision arrived at.
In the house a number of bills were re-
ported, and several committees heard on the
result of their deliberation. The silver coin
age bill was discussed, and the fourth section
struck out, after which the bill passed by 1913
to forty six. The committee on the charges
against II. V. Boynton, by ex Speaker Kei-
fer, found that they were not sustained by
the evidence, and that there was no further
ground for action.
