THE BROADWAY STRIKE.
Terms ON Which the Men Resumed
WORK.

NKw YoRK, August 27,-The drivers
and conductors Of the Broadway roads,
through a committee, proposed to
President Thompson tonight that the
old schedule OF five trips per day
sboud be restored, and that in lieu OF
his rendering the six trip scheme
which the men declared impossible OF
execution, they (the men) would
sgree to reduction OF wages
from 81 %, which is now the
rates of wages per day, to So per
day, which is the prevailing
price on the city roads. President
Thompson signihed his willingness to
accept this, and the committee that
made it went tefors the local assem-
bly, tonight to have it ratified, as it
undoubtedly will be, though the
meeting was yet in session at mid
night. The Belt Line stables are
quiet tonight. At the conference Of
representatives of the Bslt Line and
the strikers at the R,ssmore Hotel
the basis OF settlement, so far ss
divulged is an agreement by the road
to take back oil the men. Three trips
will constitute day work, and the
men will be paid by the trip and all
trips shall be made to South Ferry,
instead of Old Slip. The reduction in
wages of Car cleaners and stablemen
will remain. The result is regarded
favorable to the company. The men
resume at g 80 q m tomorrow.

TORIES SHOWING THE CLOVEE
HOOP.

AVVAs
The debates in the English Parlia-
ment are assuming q shape that is
ominous, They are becoming min.
gled with remarks Of a personal pro-
vocative character that speaks i'll for
future peace. Lord Churchill is mani
TESTING exactly the features his OPP
ponents predicted and his friends
dreaded. The majority OF the vote
the Tories can command Is doubtful
and vacillating, and their attitude be-
fore Parliament should be courteous,
generous, and conciliatory. Chur-
chills speech in Thursdays debate,
as reported in the APPBAL yesterday,
was the reverse Of all this. II was
tiippant, sarcastic, haunting and pro.
vocative, Such is not the way to
smooth the irritated feelings of patri'
otto ldshmen, or to heal the national
wounds 80 long and so often inflicted
such language in the mouth OF the
leader OF the Tories Of the House Of
Commons is calculated to rasp the feel
inss OF the Irish people, and coupled
with the evictions that are going on
to provoke an outbreak Of rage from
one end Of Ireland to the other
When that comes, the Tories will be
driven to resort TO their old and favor
lite policy Of coercion. The moment
they do 80 Tory ascendancy is at an
end. The people Of England will nc
longer allow might to put down right
in Ireland.

MORE LABOR TROUBLEs

The labor troubles are not over.
Unwise and greedy persons among
the employers take care that they
ehall not subside. Such unconscien-
tious parties are the worst enemies the
capitalists have. New York is again
the scene Of strike OF the street car
men. All was going on smoothly un.
der an arrangement THAI the mems
work should not be extended beyond
twelve hours a day. The employers
last week imposed an additional trip
each day upon the men, a trip that
would necessarily extend beyond that
time, The men Indignantly struck
against the treacherous breach OF en-.
gagement by their profit creeping en-
ployen. They did not provoke the
contest in which they are the sufferers,
but they have none to look To for help.
Those whose injustice led to the
trouble call in the aid OF the police,
and, as the New York telegram pub
lished in the APPEAL yesterday in
forms us, their chief, Capt Kiuilea,

il any car was not to get through, and

The Tariff Chapter in the Demo.
cratic CamDai0n Book

WASHINGTON, August 25.-The chap
ter on the tariff in the campaingn text
book presents an array of facts on the
labor question which "he who runs
may read" and clearly understand.
1t is an argument which is absolutely
unanswersble, aud should be SEE by
every laborer in this country. II says:
"The protested policy of the Republi-
can party in opposing a reduction of.
the tariff is protection to American
labor and industries. A glance at the
census statistics and those engaged in
the various gainful avocations 10 suffi,
cient to demonstrate that this claim
is fall e and hypocIitical. That their
tariff is restrictive and not protective.
According to the census of 1880 the
total population of the United Stat ,s
was so 155,7S3. OF this population the
total number engaged in all gainful
occupations is II, 392,099. The snbdi-
vision Of these occupations are as fol-
lows: Agriculture, 1904 prcfes-
sional and personal service, 1914
233; manufacturing, mechanics and
mining, $685., 1l2; trade and transport
tation, 1,Sl0,256. The principal sub
division of this total occupied in man.
ufacturing, mechanics and mining are |:
Carpenters and joinere, 373, l43; milf
ners, dressmakers and seamstresses,
85,40l; miners, 234,22S; boot and
shoemakeis, 194,079; blacksmiths,
172,720; cotton mill operatives, 1885,.
III; tsilors and tailoresees, 133, 1855;
painters and varnishers, 1856; iron
aud steel workers and shop opera
tives, 1859; masons, brick and
stone, 102,479; machiniste, 101 ,190;
WOODEN mill operatives, $500; eDgi-
neer5 and tiremen, 1928. The Dem.
ocrstic policy OF taxation is to COM
mence at the head OF this list and, as
far as possible, do equal and exact
justice to the whole 80, 155, 7S3 people,
the l7,392,099 10 all occupations, and
all others to the foot of the column,
including, OF course, the manufactu-
rers. The Republican policy, as
exemplified lby its practice, is
to commence near the foot OF the
list and protect the manufacturers
regardless of, and at the expense OF
the people, the farmers and those in
other occupations. But even in this
small effort they fail by practically re-
stricting the manufacturers to home
market OF 100000 consumers in
stead OF allowing them by better and
more profitable policy to supply 2,0O0,-
900 in the markets OF the world. The
new campaign book has good deal
more telling points, which will become
available to the press and the people

work. The dollar subscriptions for
the book are coming in rapidly.

Tom Martin is also broken down and
/ doubt whether he will ever amount
to much hereafter. Inspector B. has
gone amiss and do not know whether
be will be fit for racing either at
Sheepshead Bay or Jerome Pork. He
is not broken down, however, ard

great two year old, has been retired
from the turf for the year. 1t is of
course unfortunate that all these com
plicatione have come upon us, but the
horses have all done good work and it
is the fortune OF the turf. The Brook
Ign stable has won nearly S150,000
during the present season, which is
$S7, 600 more than the total winnings
for 1884. and $4,000 more than their
1885 winnings. Miss Woodford's total
winnings amount to Sl09, 4S0, by far
the greatest amount ever won by any
horse on the American turf"

Barnum attributes his success In
life to printers ink-the gift OF know
ing how TO advertise in the way that

he floods the country he intends TO
invade with bloody posters, which
draws the populace just as molssses

caravan which cost billions, his srmy

and his ark OF animals, that

G.. Blaine is what Barnum is in
the show business. The Plumed
knight, the Msiue haberdasher,
knows how TO advertise his haber-
dashery. He knows how to draw the
crowd, how to attract the attention oil
the whole nation. When in Congress
If he cav public interest in him was
subsiding, or that his Presidential
rivals were making the least head
way, he would become very noisy,
quarre!some-a sort Of roaring bull in
the Congressional china shop, kicking,
plunging and smashing everything in
general and nothing in particular.
Since the Presidential election Blaine
has been silent and quiet longer than
his won't. But he has at last emerged
from his seclusion. For nearly two
months 1t has been announced that
Blaine would open the Political cam
paign in Maine, and on Monday last
entered the canvass with % much
pomp and parade as Napoleon

COW. His speech was flat
failure, created no enthusiasm,
not even ripple upon the surface Of
the political waters. He seemed at q
loss for something to say, and spent
most OF his time in trying TO steal
from Randall and his gang the pro.
teCtive tariff issue. The best he can
do is to form an alliance with them. II
Blaine's Sebago Lake speech be the
key note Of the policy Of the Repub-
lican party for the campaign OF 1883,
the main issue will be a protective
tariff. Although he discussed five
other subjects, the theme through all
the speech was the protective tariff.
He told the workingmen to rely upon
the protective tariff for salvation, and
declared he had no nostrums to offer
for the amelioration OF their condition
save the nostrum q protective tariff
On the prohibition question he dwelt
upon the thirty years record Of
the party In Maine In passing prohi-
bition laws at the rate OF one per
annum, but, Of course, reirained from
any mention of the charge Of the Pro.
hibitionists that he and the Republic
can managers have always defeated
the laws by their private understand
ing with the liquor men that the laws
would not be enforced, 1t ia very
noticeable, again, that, whereas Mr.,
Blaine committed himself on oil of the
other four topics, he studiously avoided
the utterance OF one word that would
pledge himself personally to the advo-
cacy Of prohibition. He rested the
case solely upon the record OF the Re.
publican party of Maine.
