Collapse of an Attempted strike on tn,
Grand Trunk.

MONTREAL, May 4.-The Grand Trunk
railway wOrkmen met to-day, nearly 1000
being present. They were addressed by
their leaders and afterwards voted for
strike. The vote had no sooner been
taken, however. than the men com
menced to stream into the opened gate of
tie works and the leaders called for an
other vote. This was shown to be very
unanimous for u strike, but nevertheless
the crowds moving towards the works
grew larger and the chairman and lead

the men to 60 in and not sacrifice them
selves for the men who had weakened.
The strike therefore collapsed

A REVENUE rARlEE ONLY.

In the United States we discriminate |
not against those not interested in GER
tain imports, but against all classes of
citizens. The duties are laid net only
on articles produced in the United
States, but those not produced here, and
the chief object appears to be revenue,
no matter what the Justice in the prem
ises. The example OF Germany and
other countries is adduced to bolster up
this selfish policy, but every time with
out success.
We collect annually some 5000, 600, 900
from customs. This sum comes from all
classes of articles, those produced in
this country and those not raised here
tax on every man, woman and child
in the United States. In Germany the
import, or tariff, duties amount to some
$52, 100000, but imposed en- articles not
raised in Germany, such as coffee, Pc
troleum, tobacco and raw cotton. The
| German tariff is therefore a revenue
tariff against g protective one on the
part of the United Statee. Germany has
therefore, simon-puro revenue tariff.
This is the great fight Of the Democ'
racy: Not to maintain this protective
tariff, but to follow thu wise example Of
England, France and Germany and
put in its stead q revenue tariff inpos
ing duties on those articles not pro
duced in America and that are luXu
ries. Taxes for protection are on ex
clusively or largely American articles
and the reform tariff policy is TO Sc
change the customs list that only those
articles shall be taxed that Will reacl
the New World luxuries and operate al
an exclusively revenue tariff, From
valued exchange the HERALD clips thu
following: "TEe Germans pay abou
$ll,0O0,0G0 a year on coffee and nearly
%,00e,OO on petroleum. They also pay
nearly $8,00O,000 on tobacco, and abon
$l,300,000 on raw cotton. The revenue
derived from these four articles is no
far from $27 900, 900, which ia considers

In speaking of the lax manner in
which the law against carrying con.

a gentleman remarked that where one
man was convicted and fined for having
a pistol buckled around him five men
were killed by the deadly weapon. This
seems to be too true, and shows want
of proper performance OF duty on the

would be fewer numbers of murders re-

AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP.

corded full naturalized or native citi,
zen; but that as these latter classes are
not protected it don't amount to much.
How true this may be with reference to
the past, it Is not germano to this arti-
Gle to discuss, but as an adherent Of the
present administration the HERALD
feels called upon to resent any such im-
putation. A firmness of resolve, prompt
ness Of action and acqu aintance with
our rights under international law haE
been manifested, not only by the secre.
tary Of state, but by the head of the ma
val department, which challenges the
admiration and respect of all.

which all are familiar presented most

true there is too little Americanism in
America-not that bigoted species OF
jealousy that would deny or contract
the rights of foreign citizens, but that
deep-seated pride Of nationality which
the liberty loving citizens OF every land
may indulge under the broad egis OF
our constitution and Union. Most rigid.
ly should those in charge of national
affairs guard and protect the rights OF the
sens of Columbia whenever and
wherever threatened or assailed. As d
people we are deficient in unison OF
thought and feeling, and somewhat dis.
turbed by sectionalism. This is due "a
a want OF that elevating confidence and
perfect repose in both the power and
will Of the government to stand by It's
citizens, which makes the Englishmar
more DEVOTED to his country than the
men OF other lands, "Nolle son tan,

Briton knows will be- endorsed and
