CONGRESSMAN CIRCUITS SCHEME.

Mr.. Grout, the Representative of the
second Vermont district. has introduced
"A bill which requires all fourth-class
postmasters-who number about fifty
thousand and are now appointed by the
ostmaster-general-to keep an open reg
istry for the resident patrons of their
offices, and whenever majority of these
patrons desire change they shall notify
the postmaster-general, who shall secure
the holding of public meeting by the
patrons to ballot for a successor in the
post office. The person so selected must
be appointed. or in case the postmaster
general declines to do so for reasons in
his discretion. another person then shall
be selected.
Mr.. Grouts idea is good one, wheth-
er his plan for putting it in force is prac-
ticable or not. The patrons of these Of
tices are more interested than any one
else in having the work properly done;
and they ought to be as well able t0

SENATOR MORRILL, ON THE TARIFF.

promote their healthy growth, so that
any change of law must be at every step
rcgardful of the labor and capital involv-
ed and without depriving American labor
of the ability to compete successfully
with foreign labor and without imposing
lower rates of duty than will be ample
to cover any increased cost of production
which may exist in consequence of the
higher rate of wages prevailing in this
country, appears so obviously hopeless
tempts at revision by the present Con-
gress in contravention to the foregoing
cardinal declarations are to be regarded
AS ineXpedient and detrimental to the
revival of the trade and industry of the
country" MI, Morrill, said, in the
course of his remarks -
When business of all kinds is moving
in a normal condition of general content-
ment, neither excited nor depressed, a
change in the tariff laws by which trade
and industrial affairs are to be governed
or affected is ever unwelcome. and only

immediate and palpabe benefits, as any
change must, to some extent, diSlocate
regular and ascertaned results of all
industrial establishments. But to pro-
pose such a change when business affairs
have been unusually depressed, when
trade everywhere has offered only
meagre inducements, when wage-earn-
ers find steady employment uncer-
tain and unsatisfactory, but showing
signs of Improvement, it would seem
peculiarly mauspiciouS. He proceeded
to ridicule Morrison's scheme for

flood of foreign productions pour in and

ed. The consumption of tobacco added
much to the workingman's cost of living
and to them the repeal of the tax would
be Il substantial boon. The duties on raw
sugar might also be either wholly re
moved or cut down to the lowest poin
from all countries which do not impose
duties, and then generous bonuses nigh
be granted to all domestic sugars. a re
vision of the tariff at an early day woulC
be eminently desirable, but the worl
should not be intrusted to those who ar,

REV. DIR. MCGLYNN, pastor of St.
Stephens Catholic church, New York
city, has gotten himself into trouble.
During the fight over the mayoralry last
fall he espoused the cause of Henry
George. Archbishop COrrigan sent a
statement of the facts to Rome, and now
DIR. McGlynn has been suspended from
his duties and summoned to appear be-
fore the Pope to explain. He will soon
sail for Europe. The church, it seems,
does not agree with Mr.. Georges notions
about the ownership of land, which are,
in substance, that no one ought to have
property right in it, but that it should
be free.
