THE SENATE rrNKERs.

The senate tariff tinkers falter. It is now many days since the Mills bill as it passed the house was sent up to them, and yet they make no sign as to their inten- tions. The house, by the refusal of the democratic caucus to sustain MT Oates motion for adjournment, leaves the senate in the midst of its predicament. Whats the matter with the republican senate?
 It ought not to be difficult for the senate to do something. It is only about three months since that the republican national convention adopted-unanimously, with cheers and rising vote-a platform in which the policy of the party was posi- lively and definitely stated. That policy is before their eyes, and it ought not to be difficult for them to fashion some legisla- tive enactment from it. It ought not to be difficult for them to frame a bill to re- duce the surplus revenues. All that is re- quired is short, simple act repeating all internal revesue taxes, making whiskey, tobacco and bogus butter free. That would be consistent with the Chicago platform, and would outline sharply the relative policies of the two parties. It would furnish free whiskey for the tramp and the guttersnipe, it would allow the poor man to smoke cigars, it would enable the boarding house mistress to feed her boarders on oleomargarine at small expense. And yet the senators hold off. They wriggle and worm and worry they twist and turn and tumble ; they suuirm and straddle and stave off the issue Are they afraid of the platform Are they fearful that it's method of doing away with the surplus is not the one that the Am erican people want It looks like it. If so, why not give us some other way Why not give the platform the bounce anC adopt the Mills bill
 The Mills bill is moderate measure of | tariff reduction. It makes a much smaller reduction than that urged by the repub lican tariff commission Of 1882. It is wei balanced and carefully adjusted to remedy the inequalities of the existing tariff. | is understood by the country and is pro nounced satisfactory by those who are no blinded by partisanship.
 The senate should pass the Mills bill ant go home.

VICE PRESIDENT HENRY WILSON differed from these latter day statesmen of his party in the matter of tariff taxes. MT Wilson said II think American labor will be best protected by taxing all the neces- sares of life lightly; placing the raw materials which enter into our manufac- lures on the free list; raising revenue tC support the government upon articles that come in competition with our manufac- lures and upon the luxuries of life which are consumed by the more wealthy classes of society,"" The republicans nowadays want the luxuries taxed lightly and the necessaries taxed heavily. Unfortunately for them the voters know it.

HARRISON TALKING TARIFF.

It is quite proper that General Harrison should speak for the interest of the bond holders, but the taxpayers will not take stock in his method of reducing the sur plus by buying up the unmatured govern ment obligations at premium. It is bad enough to be taxed every year as we gre now many millions beyond the needs of the government, but that we should be taxed in order that bounties may be paid to bondholders is carrying the principle of taxation a little too far. There is no reason why the public debt should be paid of faster than it natures, and no reason why the present generation which has been taxed so much should be asked to shoulder unnecessary burdens of itsliquida- tion. But this is what General Hal rison ad- vises in his letter of acceptance and what he urge d in his speeches yesterday to the dele gations that called on him at his home.
 The policy of raising treasury surplus for the pun pose of spending it, either in bounties to bondholders or subsidies to over-protected monopolists, is not pleas ant one for taxpayers to contemplate. Ii would not be tolerated in our municipal systems and should not find favor in oul national union. The sulp plus should be stopped by reducing the taxes on the ne cessities of the people, which is the policy of President Cleveland and the democratic party. This policy will remove temptation to extravaganza, will avoid the dishonest payment of premiums for unmatured obli- gations will cheapen the cost of living and bring back the traditional American policy of prudence and economy in national ex- penditures.
 It is the popular policy and will be ap proved by the voters in November.

Clearing a Railroad Wreck.

A gentleman tells me that he has seen one of the moSt extraordinary pieces of executive dispatch in his life. 1T was coming down the Hudson River road" he said, 1.-two or three days ago, when the train was stopped by a wreck near Hudson. A freight train had been thrown off the track. The engine was lying imbedded in hole, one car was ly- ing across the track; another had lost Its trucks and was flat on the track, and the tender of the locomotive was also deeply im- bedded.
 We had waited there an hour and Q half or two hours, and twenty trains had been stopped They had yanked one of the cars up on jack screws, as if to run trucks under it, and then get it out of the way. It looked as if we were going to stay until night, and we began to think about finding a steamboat or buggy or something to get on to New York, when all at once an engine and wreck ing car heaved in sight.
 Before the engine had come to stop we could hear the roadmasters voice ring out, giving his orders before he had seen the sit uation. He seemed to be as familiar with everything on the spot as if he had been there all night. There was an engine off at some distance, but doing nothing. He called out to the engineer to come up and make fast to the buried locomotive. In half minute the en- zinc was attached and pulling to get the other out of the hole, and at the second effort the great mass of iron came up suddenly, and was hauled out of the road.
 ''Pass that rope over the top of that car, and make fast to the tree younder," he cried. It was done. ''Now 800 of you lay hold of that rope" he shouted. The entire little army, under the inspiration of that voice, lay hold of the rope, using the tree for a purchase, and they pulled the car across the track square and out of the way by main strength
 "Come on here with that engine, he cries again, make fast to this truck" With an other tremendous pull the whole thing came out of the ground like tree by the roots, and was rushed off. ''Now start that first train" cried the man. In less than.two min utes from the time of his arrival, what looked to be a weeks job was out of the way, and the passengers went on.-New York Letter.

SENATOR M1rcHELL's contemptible fling at Senator Meggan that the latter had been drunk on the Nsor of the senate has been answered by the latter's associates. A collection of certificates denying the charge, signed by members of both parties, has been given to the press. Will the local re- publican organ, which Haunted the matter at the time, be fair enough to notice the denial We shall see.

THE statement made by the senior mem Der of Hamilton & Co of Pittsburg that "the Mills bill is not having a bad effect upon the manufacturing centers, and no firm will suffer when tariff reform is effect ed is borne out by the condition of man ufacturing everywhere.

THE RED BANDANA

We believe in thaa part of Belva's plat form published in the DEMOCRAT referring to education, the lack of which is shown by her grammar. But the demand that every husband buy a Shoninger Piano or Organ for his wife entirely destroys her chances. Oh, Belva, would you destroy family ties throughout our land No. The Red Bandana will be used for the next four years in dusting such Fine Pianos as Mason & Hamlin.

LAST DAY OF BROOKLYN REGISTRATION.
FALLING OFF ON ACCOUNT OF THE RAIN-BIG

INCREASE IN THE TOTAL.
The registration for this year in brooklyn was COM
pleed yesterday and affords striking proof of tho
remarkable growth of the city at the other end OF the
Bridge since the completion Of that structure and the
introduction OF rapid transit IN sister municipality.
Whether any definite indication of the political pro-
clves of tho voters be gained from the increase
in the several wards is extremely uncertain. The
greatest increase is in the wards where the growth
in former years has been decidedly Republican. Tho
Increase In the Eighteenth Ward alone is 1854 but
in LISA 1t gave the Democrats about 300 plurality.
Next to 1t comes the Twenty fifth Ward with gain
of $3.50, and in 1884 It gave the Republicans 800
plurality. The Twenty first Ward shows a gain OF
2071 and the Twentythrd Of 2,047. The average in
crease Is 90 per cent
The total registration yesterday was 3s079, which,
added to the 1884 of the two previous days. makes
total OF l56,393. This is o63O3 more than in 1854
when the twenty-five wards and the Of New
Lots, the Twenty sixth Ward, had a registration
of 10000. Comparisons BY wards are afforded by
the subioined table,
