AN IMPOLITIN pNLInY.

Amid The general wrecl; the friends
Of free trade may find some consola.
tion in the fact that one of the most
eminent of all the revenue reform
leaders has received an Endorsement at
the hands of the people OF New York,
of which any man might be proud. 1t
is pity that the services of such man
are lost to the House Of Representa-
tives, but his influence will continue to
be felt in the right direction.
Abram S. Hewitt has been dlstin-
guished above his fellows in Congress,
because of the clear and practical nature
of his views on the tariff, and the rea.
sonable concessions from the opposi.
tioD, which he was always ready to &c.
cept, If not always able to secure.
In all his propositions towards lessen
ing what he conceived to be the unwse
and oppressive exactions Of the tariff
lie was careful to avoid extreme or rev.
olutionary measures. AS a business
man of long experience and a close
student of economic questions, he well
understood the peculiar sensitiveness
Of trade to legislation that was con-
tinually threatening, even if it failed to
accomplish sweeping changes of our
revenue policy. He saw that whatever
was to be effected in the way of tariff
reform must necessarily be done by
slow degrees and with due regard to
the ability of the industries of the
country to bear 1t,
Had he succeeded in passing his
bill for better systematizing the admin.
istrative machinery of the tariff, that
Of itself bad been u victory for revenue
reform, and every merchant and man.
ufaCturcr in the country would have
felt the immediate benefit of ii. But
unfortunately, as We conceive, for the
cause of tariff revision, the fight
against protection, as led by Mr.. Nor.
rison, was overdone. 1t was persist
ent, aggressive and uncompromsing in
the very face of the fact that there was
no earthly possibility of passing
WV i'tbult lht ltBlsldllbI
which it contemplated. 1t was a mere
fight for political prestige in the House
which still more unfortunately degen.
Grated into factious controversy, that
could not fail in the very nature of
things, 10 weaken and divide the
strength of the Democratic party, with
our making any perceptible progress
towards the professed object OF the
agitation.
Had the tariff been let entirely alone
or subjected merely to the cautious re-
visory treatment advocated by Mr..
Hewitt. Colonel Morrison would have
more than held his own among the
coal. miners, Mr.. Carlisle would not
have been forced to the brink of dis
aster and the present majority in the
House would not have been reduced.
The long and short of II is that the
Democracy In Congress committed a
great blunder in forcing the tariff is
sue to the front. when there was no
sort Of occasion for 1t, and when they
bad been reminded time and again that

MIR. CARLISLE says he has frequently
warned his constituents that some fine
morning they would wake IN and find
somebody else elected to Congress in
his place, all on account of their stay
ing away from the poll. They seem
to think" he adds, "that | am sure to
be elected whether anybody votes for
me or not" Mr.. Carlisle might have
gone further and said that the people
al large have entertained about the
same idea concerning him and the
security of his chances. 1t must
be gratifying to the Speaker to know
of the sentiments expressed by
Republicans as well as Democrats
when 1t was given out that he had been
defeated. They were invariably ex-
pressiOns Of regret, and even some ultra
Republican newspapers remarked that
his defeat would be National misfor.

out, consistent party man and at the

that the Democrats of the Covington
district will not be caught mapping

THE Enquirer of Cincinnati, in an
editorial on Speaker Carlisle's narrow
escape, shows the remarkable apathy
existing in his district. because the
Democrats thought they had "sure
thing" In many precincts in Kenton
and Campbell counties (Covlngton and
NewporD no polls were opened at all,
and in many, no officers were sworn in.
In Kenton County no tickets were dis.
tributed, and, late on election day, a
private citizen, noticing that no tickets
could be secured for those desiring to
vote, had several thousand printed at
his own expense. The committees did
nothing, and, as phenomenal thing in
politics, refused to take money that
was offered, saying There is nothing
in it. 1t is not worth worrying about"
One precinct. good for 500 Demo-
cratic majority, polled 20 votes;
another, good for 400, voted less than
n hundred, and so in many others.
Only one.ffth of the regular vote was
polled in the country counties. In
1884 Mr.. Carlisle was elected by about
5000 majority in II total vote Of

For the first time in twenty-five

Democratic delegation to Congress.
1t Is done this year by the election Of
Colonel William Elliott as successor to
Mr.. Smalls. The new member is
friend of the Administration and be.
lieyes in the reduction Of customs
duties on everything except rice. To
him, apparently, as to revenue re-
formers generally, the tariff is local

Mr. HEWITT win not resign hi3 seat
in the House uutil some time 10 Jan.
ualy, but he hopes even during the
short remaining ! eri ID OF his C)ngr,s-
sioual term to accomplish something
in the W y of mGch needed legislation.
The result of the election in New
York, he says, imposes upon the Dem
ocraIic party in Congress an obliga-
tion to talk up the subject OF labor
grievances and inaugurate "such re.
forms as will relieve the working peo-
pie Of TIE great and unjust burdens
that result from reduction in their
earnings" Until he resigns Mr..
Hewitt proposes TO do all he can to
bring about an amelioration of these
evils. He will point to his own cleo
tion on Tuesday as an illustration of
the absolute need that Congress do its
full duty in this matter. 1t is pretty
big contract for man to undertake
and push to completion in little less
than month, but if Mr.. Hewitt can
sow some healthy seed where 1t will
take root and induce Congress to deal
with the labor question without allowing
the methods of the demagogue to pre-.
vail in what II does, he will entitle him
self to the credit of an excellent month
