Wrong Again, Mr.. Bright

Mr.. Bright talks about the tariff
standing in the way of a nation
exporting anything, whether man
ufactures OF agricultural products,
that it has in superabnndance. lie
has evidently given no attention
to the exports of manufactures from
Germany since the return of the
Empire to Protection.
Under Free Trade England sup
piled Germany with immense
quantities of manufactured goods
and thus destroyed many of her
most flourishing industries. The
return to a high tariff not only Sc
cured the German home market
safe from English inroads, but it
cheapened the cost of production,
and to-day Germany is the most
formidable competitor England
has in the markets of the world in
nearly all lines of cheap goods.
Free-traders have failed to satisfac-
torily explain this total reversal Of
their pet theory, that a high tariff
prevents the expectation of manu-
featured goods.
United States, when the time
comes, will be better able to com
pete IN foreign markets with a
tariff than without one, and this
fact will some day come home to
certain manufacturers who have
been recently asking for a reduction
of the tariff on the ground that It,
will increase their exports. Let
them study the recent economic
history Of Germany. a tariff ena-
bles us to produce cheaply and
paves the way to an export trade
in manufactures. tt

The Democrats Of the House are
much franker with regard to free
trade than they were three months
ago. Then it was all but impossi-
bic to get any of them to pronounce
that phrase. Now Mr.. Dorsheimer,
Mr.. Cox and other Democratic
lights are quite frank in avowing
their belief IN that policy. They
all appeal to the present hard times
as an effect of the tariff, as Though
il was this country alone that had
bard times. And they all lament
the hindrances TO our commerce
which are presented by our high
duties, as though we laid these du-
ties on exports, or We're not export
ing more manufactures than eyer
before in our history. Dir. Hiscock
pressed the evidence OF lactagaiust
their theories, but without making
much impression. They will adj.
duDe the same arguments On'cyery
occasion, as though they never had
been met and answered. Yll -.
a If any one had claimed that the
tariff was a cupe-all for every kind
of industrial difficulty, 1t would DO
Just to complain Git when it did
not prevent hard times. Hard
times would be far harder without
it, and our depression would be far
greater five had made our country
the dumping.ground for the accu-
INFLATED stocks Of goods under
which the manufacturer Of Europe
are staggering. ,"'.'

8 itallrOni Train Hurled from
the Track.

JERSEY CITY, y. j., Jan 30.--A
frishtful railroad accident occurred
this morning on the Now Jersey
Central railroad a number of per-
sons being either killed or wound
ed. As the fast express from Phil
adclphia was approaching Dan
forth avenue, just after crossing
Cemetery bridge, a wheel Of one
OF the forward coaches broke, caus-
ing several Of the coaches to leave
the track. The dcrailcd cars
rushed into a coal train standing
on a sido track, upsctting the coal
cars and piling up on them in a
badly wrecked condition. The
cars Of the express were well filled
with passengers, and as the cars
crashed into one another the
shrieks of the men and woman were
heart reuding.
Assistance wasat once telegraph
ell for, and the various hospitals
of the city promptly responded
with corps of doctors and a number
of ambulances. The railroad hands
in the neighborhood soon set to
work eXlricating the wounded from
the wreck, while the doctors band
AGED their wounds and set them to
the hospitals as rapidly as possible
Al IL O'clock twenty-seyen persons
in an had been taken from the
wreck more or less badly injured
some it is feared fatally. Others
are still i'm the wreck, badly wedg.
cd in among the broken timbers,
etc, and il is reported that several
cOrp-os can be seen amid the de-
brls. The train was running at a
high rate Of speed at the time, and
was due in Jersey City at 40 AN.
The accident, 1t is believed, when
the full details are known, will
turn ont to be one of the most
disastrous that has occurred on
any Of the Jersey roads for a long
time past. The railroad officials
say they cannot account for the
breaking Of the wheel, as the UNI
dcrpinnIng Of the cars, aXles, &c,
are carefully examined and sound
ed at every stop the train makes
between Philadelphia and Jersey
City.
Mr.. w. Seaman, of Bayonne,
New jersey, who was on the ac-
cOmmodation train which arrived
within five minutes of the accident
to the express train, said that it
was occasioned by one wheel of the
tender leaving The track, which
opened the switch, so that the
smoker switched of and run into
tDo coal train standing OH siding,
dragging the other cars with it.
The engine broke loose and ran
a quarter ola mile before it was
stopped. The smoker was com
pletely wrecked, the Pullman car
and three coaches following were
badly smashed, and four coal cars
were destroyed and tho coal was
scattered over the ground for fifty
yards.
The track was so badly form mp
that it will require relaying at the
place Of the accident, and trains
will consequently be badl" delayed.
JERSEY CITY, n j., Jan 3O.-lt
now transpires that no one was
killed in the railroad accident here
this morning. The wounded have |
all been placed in the hospitals,
and at last reports were doing |
well.

MEETING OF FRESHMEN TO PRO

We take the following from the

A large and enthusiastic meet

ti0ns Of the District of Columbia
was held last nightat Clan-na-Gael
hall to protest against the passage
of the Edmunds bill Ii was al

city, hut this course was not deem.
cd necessary.
Mr.. Dennis Council was called
20 the chair and Mr.. VI. Burns
chosen as secretary. A committee
Oh resolutions was appointed, pend
ing the delibcration of which Capt.
O'Meagher Condor was requested
to address the meeting.
He congratulated the assemblage
upon the spirit and feeling which
brought it together, and said that
they had nothing to apologize for
or to regret. The maddened vic.
Tins OF British oppression were
The best judges OF the means to be
used to check its crimes. The
United States had no responsibility
whatever in the matter. England,
not this nation, was responsible
for anything that might happen in
consequence Of its career of crime
in Ireland, and we were not called
upon to interfere between the op-
prcssor and his victims. If we
took any action, justice, gratitude,
and love Of liberty ought to impel
us to express our sympathy with
the victims Of British hate and lust
OF power. Capt. Condor spoke ut
some length upon the absurdity of
the assertions that the United
States was in any way responsible
for the recent explosions in Lon.
don lie showed that British
firms were constantly sending
large quantities of dynamite to
this country in a criminally care
less manner. The governments of
France and Germany expressed or
ielt no sympathy for the damage
done TO those monuments of
British cruelty and crime-the
tower # London aud the parla.
meut house. In spite Of all the
twaddle about indiscriminate as.
sassination the fact remained that
not a single life had been lost
through any of the explosions, a
idct which proved the regard which
their authors had for the safety Of
human life. We in a free nation
could not understand the feeling
engcndcred by centuries Of meIcl.
Jess persecution, and by the policy
oi determination Of the Irish pco-
p.epulsuci by TIE British govern
ment Let that government call
0H IT'S h.oodhounds from the throat
oi Ireland, and explosions would
cease. Until then, there was no
apology 10 offer for the acts of men
driven mad by oppression and
persecution. He said thai Sena-
tor Riddlebcrgcr deserved the adj
mIration OF every true American,
and that aithoagh siXty-thrce voted
against him. in this h. singly rep
resented the sentiment of the
American people in more than the
proportion Of G3 to ].
RESOLUTIONS were then offered
and passed deprccatiug and pro-
testing against the passage of the
Edmnnds bill. and expressing the
thanks and gratitude OF the meet
ing and those Nhom it represented
TO Senator Riddleberger for his
action.
After some approving remarks
by gentlemen present the meeting
adjourned.

"NO Irish Need APPLY

1t was a travesty upon real so.
ciety-fOr real society has no yul-

purchased from pawnbrokers, when

impertinent and cowardly insult to

For they are a people, with all
that the word implies. They are a
