AN independent republican writes
to the New York Tribune, insisting
that the republican party shall favor
tariff reform, and refuse the dIctation
of the machine BY reform he cX-
plains that he means n gradual ap-
proach toward free trade. This indie
pendent does not appreciate that the
republican party il bound hand and
foot and delivered over to the tariff
monopoIists. He does not realize that
only year ago the party were IN
favor of reducing the tariff % per cent.
and now the same party, through It's
organs and officials, is insisting that
the industries of the country will be
laid Hat and PROSTATE by reduction
of II per cent.

THE TARIFF ON WOOL.

MIR. Converse Did Not Rush Hiss
Bill Through the House as He
Promised.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-Yesterday
was the day that Congressman Con
verse of Ohio had promised he would
rush his weol bill through the house.
1t was suspension day" ''Suspen-
sion day" is the first Nor lay of every
month. On that day. if thirds
vote can be obtained, the rules may
be suspended and any bill put upon
its passage. Mr.. Converse promised
for a month that he would have his
bill for increasing the duty on wool
taken up yesterday. The friends of
the bill from Ohio were here IN full
force, but not move was made by Mr..
Converse. TIE fact is, the wool grow
ers found they could not get two
thirds nor one-third of the house to
vote for the measure. No democrats,
with few exceptions, and not more
than half of the republicans will vote
for the increase of tariff on wool. Mr.
Conyerse's bill stands no show what
ever.
A Republican Opinion.
CHICAGO, Feb. s. Speaking of Con-
verses total failure on his much
talked-of wool bill, the Chicago Trib-
une, republican organ, says of it:
Mr.. Converse has been foolishly
voluble ON this question. He has 20
constituents who are not vol grow
ers to one that is. The nsa growers
do not want the tariff raised and not
a quarter of the growers themselves
do. Converse and every other con-
gresham knows very well that more
than nine-tenths of the farmers who
grow sheep have so few that they
gain much more money by the reduc-
ton Of the tariff on wool and wooden
goods than they could possibly make
out of any possible increase In the
price of. wool resulting from increased
duty ON wosL. Most farmers on hilly,
rough land keep q few sheep TO keep
down weeds and nip the grass in fence

night flames were discovered issuing
from the Phoenix Glass works, Phillips
burg, N. j. The fire was under good
headway when FIRST discovered, and the
means at hand of extinguishing being
limited, but little could be done towards
checking the progress of the flames,
which soon spread throughout the en-
tire works, destroying them in short
time. The loss is about $125, 900; insur
ance $74, 000 The works, which cover
ed a large area, were among the largest
in the country. Five hundred hands are
thrown out of employment in the mid
die of winter.

eloyes in other lines of work. There
is a certain degree of freedom, of
abandon, of social unrestraint. of in
dividual action about railroad work
which finds illustration In no other
branch of employment: consequently,
when, as now and then must be case,
reductions come or discharges, the
men "hang around" and wait, hoping
for a better time. There is certain
kind of noblesse oblige about railroad
management which insures reinstate-
ment to old hands when opportunity
offers, and the same high principle
conduces to the retention of old en-
ployes Just as long as it is the proper
thing to do.

Those thousand men are scattered

they have large families depending
