Governor McCoohs Reasons for Opposing Its
Ratification.
Special to the indianapolis journal.
WASHINGTON, March 10.-Discussion of the
Mexican treaty will be resumed to morrow after
noon by the Senate. Ex Governor McCook of Colo
RADIO, said to your correspondent, to onight, that
vote would be probably reached tomorrow,
and that the friends of the treaty confidently
anticipated its ratification. Senator Gibson, of
Louisiana will make speech against ratification
to-morow Mr.. McCook said tonight. that
ratification of the treaty would not only bring the
pauper peon labor of Mexico in direct competi
tion with free American labor, but work irrepar-
able injury to the mining interests If coal
coke and American ore admitted into Mexico
free of duty, and their products returned to the
United States free of duty the result will be
that the thirty and fifty cents per day
labor will be hired in Mexico for
reducing and smelling ores and cverv
smelling works in Colorado, New Mexico and
Arizona will he closed down and their laborcrs
driven out for the benefit of cheap Mexican or
Chinese labor. 81 cannot he continued. ''un-
derstand how persons who battled to make free
labor respectable and selfsupporting, and pub
lie men who have opposed Chinese cheap labor
should now favor the ratification of treaty
which will bring to the United States more than
all the evils of Chinese labor, and which will
practically reduce the colo"cd labor of the South
engaged in producing sugar, and most of the
workmen of the North and the miners Of the
West into a condition of pauperism. We will
bitterly regret it if the treaty is adopted

Death of Bishop Robert IL. Clar!<son, of the
Episcopal Church.
OMAHA. March lQ.-Bishop Robert H. Clark
son died at l o'clock this morning

Robert Harper Clarkson, D. D., Ill D., passed
many years of his life in Chicago, where in 1865
in St Jamess Church, he was consecrated
bishop. While his career as first bishop of
Nebraska, with jurisdiction in Dakota till last
summer, has been one of rare results sgnally
emphasized only few months since by the
consecration of the beautiful Trinity Cathedral
Omaha, the product of his personal labors and
prayers, it is rather to the able and popular
rector of st. James's parish and always its
welcome guest, that the thoughts of his Chicago
friends turn in this hour As member of the
Chicago Historical Society, of which his old
parishioner, the Hon. l. N. Arnold, is president,
he always appeared at its meetings when pass
ing through that city, only recently reading a
paper. Not longer ago than a month he was in
the chancel of St James, at the ordination of
the assistant minister Bishop Clarkson was
noted equally as an organizer and an effective
pulpit speaker, and to those combined gifts
has been due the notable upbui!dng of the
Nebraska and Dakota jurisdictions for twenty
years under his episcopal charge. Born at
the East he became, when deacon, minister
of st. James, holding the post some eighteen

MoRRIsoN's TARIFF BILL.
How the Two Branches of the Party
Feel on Caucussing on 1t.

How the Two Branches of the Party
Feel on Caucussing on 1t.
WASHINGTON, March 14.-The Star,
this evening, publishes the following as
the result of testing the feeling among
Democrats in regard to tariff legislation:
''The friends of the Morrison bill have no
doubt of their ability to carry the caucus
on the tariff question, and thus place Mr..
Randall and his followers in the position
of bolting the caucus if they oppose the
measure. When the caucus was first
proposed, the tariff reformers felt conf
dent of their strength, and in their conf
dence preferred to have the bull pass upon
its merits only, but since Mr.. Randall has
displayed his strength in defeating con-
siderati0n OF the whisky bill, they have
become fearful, and have determined, hav-
ing gone thus far, to push the question to
the last extremity" This must be done.'
said prominent reformer to-day. we
must push ahead now, whatever hap
pens, whatever may be the result. 1t
is too late to turn back if we
want to, and we do not
want to if we could. If the whole party
goes to pieces, if we lose the Presidency
and everything else, what of that? We
are right. Tariff reform is a Democratic
principle. Three-fourths of the Demo-
Gratis in the country believe in it and will
stand by their principlesl II the bill
comes out of the caucus with the indOrse-
ment of the party, as 1t is very apt to do,
the reformers being in the majority in the
Democratic ranks, if not IN tine House,
the chances of its passage are materially
increased. One of Mr.. RandalPs sup
pOrters, member from New York, speak
ing on the subject the other day. said that
he was opposed to the bill, and if it was
left to pass upon its merits he would Op-
pose it with all his strength, but if it was
indOrsed by the caucus and became a
party measure he would feel himself
bound by this action. This view is sup
posed to be held by many of the
other prOtectionists and the friends of
Mr.. MOrrisOn's bill hope for
success by reading the riot act. Some of
the Democrats openly declared that they
Will not go into the cancus on that bill.
Inquiry at random from Democrats ON
both sides of the tariff question shows
that no call has as yet been issued, but
the drift OF opinion was that the Morrison
men have virtually decided to caucus on
the bill If they can see a certainty of get
ting 1t approved by majority. There are
tarln refOrmers who openly oppose a eau
Gus on this question as impolitic. One of
these, Western Democrat, said to-day
that he would not cOuntenance any move
ment to shut ''such men as Messrs. Eaton,
Randall and others who have fought our
Democratic battles for years out of the
party.o A Georgia member standing by
indOrsed this position.
