MANNING'S POSITION.
Urged CD Resign by Fits Family,
but Desired by the President
10 Remain,

A Washington special to the Phila-
delphia Times says: The question of
the return of Secretary Manning to
the performance of his official duties
as soon as his convalescence will adj
nit has become matter of earnest
consideration on the part of the Presi-
dent and evident sOlicitude on the
part OF the Secretary's family. Mrs Man
ming and the Secretary's brother-in-
law, superintendent of the govern
ment building in New York, are very
positive in their wishes to have the
Secretary re ign very soon, and thus
have his mind entirely freed from any
thought of responsibility or anxiety
about the department. The President
at the present stage of affairs is not
anxious to lose the presence of Mr..
Manning in the Cabinet and in fur
therauce of that desire il has been
proposed that the Secretary take
long rest, leaving the duties t. be per-
formed by his assistant secretaries,
William +. Smith and Charles $. Fair
child.
The administrative branch of that
vast department has been assigned to
the direction of Assistant Secretary
Smith. As an executive officer he
has no superior, and in addition to
this he has the confidence and sup
port of every branch of his party. In
the campaign which elected Mr.. Cleve-
land President he was chairman of the
Executive Committee and his excel
lent judgment and prompt action
won the praises of Mr.. Man
ming, Mr., Tilden and all the party
leaders. At one time his name was
prominently mentioned for collector of
the port of New York. His appointment
would have been received with favor
by the working element OF the party.
Unless the wishes of Mrs. Manning
and the SeCretary's closest friends
should prevail, the Secretary will not
tender his resignation Immediately,
neither will he take active charge of
the department, but he will remain so
as to give the President ample time to
select a successor.

SHALL THETARIFs he mENDED,

The shred Of tariff reform that is
offered by the tariff bill now before
Congress, is violently opp osel by the
wool-growers, who assert that high as
the present tax on imported wool is,
they are losing money. The wool
manufac .urers, Ut the same time, are
complaining that their business is 70.
ing to ruin because OF the tariff. They
require certain descriptions OF cheap
and untaxed foreign wool to produce
certain goods, and If they had it the
increase in their trade would be so
great that they would consume much
more American wool than they do at
present. Their trade is limited, and
also their demand for labor, by the
operation OF the tax. Yet the Repub-
licans in Congress stubboTnly oppose
any change in the wool aud wooden
tarih. The wool tariff is insisted up
to favor the wooi-Rrowers, although
the growers acknowledge they are
losing money under its operation.
1t also limits the business Of the man.

operation. Why, under these circum-
stances, are the Republicans opposed
TO any tariff reform? Why will they
act the part of Pharaoh snd refuse
to let the people go" that complain of
injustice and oppression? Like the
Tories with Ireland, they prefer to use
iorce, driving, compulsion-not by
transporting aud hanging, i. is true,
but by the force Of legislation. Why
are the Republicans thus obstinate
against what unbiased, business COM
mon sense points out as the right
course? It is not that many of them
do not feel the force Of such facts as
the wool trade presents. 1t is because
they mist,ust the system of the tariff
as a whole. They know it abouuis in
bluuders, contradictions and unjust
provisions. They know that the pres.
