statement of remark of Mr.. Blaine to

command the nomination, he could not

The impression at Washington is gain

The Republicans have had time to hear
from the country to get general idea
of the prevailing sentiment. The result
shows itself in lowering of the tone all
along the line. When the leaders of the
party mounted the old high war tariff,
and drew their sabers for battle, they
expected to see the entire party, with a

A Crucial Point.

New York Times.
Our Washington dispatches report
that the ''ways and means committee
will stand by free wool if the bill goes
down." We do not see how they could
do otherwise. The repeal of the duty
on wool is to all intents and purposes
one of the most crucial points of the
whole movement for the reform of the
tariff. 1t will not very seriously affect
the revenue, though, so far as it goes, it
is, of course, direct reduction, but it
will relieve the people of the country of
a very large tax that does not go to the
treasury.

TARIFF SENTIMENT.
The Peoples Wedge.
Pittsburg Post.

Pittsburg Post.
Monopoly tariff advocates have been
so long shouting about the free trade of
the Mills bill that it is a little surprising
to hear one of them admit that it seeks
comparatively slight reduction of
duties, and denOunce it as the center
ing wedge of free trade" This looks,
by comparison with general Republican
declarations on the subject, so fair that
some weight may be given to it. But it
is still matter for conjecture whether
the gentleman thinks a wedge can be
withdrawn if it does not suit the people.
And it may be that this last advocate of
''protectiOn" looks so far ahead that he
sees such prosperity following a reduc-
ton of useless taxation as will bring us
closer to that industrial perfection nee
cessary to command the markets of the
world. Having gotten so far from the
contracted position of the monopolists
as to admit that the Mills bill is long
way from free trade" the country may
be desirous of knowing just how broad
this genteman'S views are.

The People Judges,

Pittsburg Commercial Gazette.
The general speeches on the tariff
closed on Saturday, and congressional
opinion on the bill is pretty well crystal
lized. The prospects are that the bill
will pass. OF the Democrats all but
about eight will vote for it. OF the Re-
publicanS all but three, possibly four,
will vote against it. But beyond the
house it will not get this session, as the
senate with its Republican majority will
defeat it. Still, in the opinion of Mr..
Cleveland and the other Democratic
leaders, this would be a victory for them
as showing to the country that their
party has committed itself unequiyocally
to free trade. On the whole, then, per
haps it is as well that the Republicans
cannot prevent the Democrats from
making this record for themselves. The
people will have the better chance to
judge between them when they come to
decide how they will vote next fall.

dred feet in depth, in which was an ele-
yatOr. The two sections of the tunnel
unite at this point, which is working
headquarters, and here the material is
lowered in and the refuse hOiSted out.
The exploring party, clad in rubber and
each with lantern, descended by the
elevator and traversed the entire length
of the tunnel. Seeing all that was to be
seen, and taxing in the difficulties and
mysteries of this underground exploit.
When it is completed, which will be
in July, if no accident occurs, the sewer
tunnel will extend to the river at Eighth
avenue south to Sixth avenue north, a
distance OF about mile and a half, and
will have cost about 100000. At pres
ent the extreme northern end is at the
Shaft between Third and Fourth ave-
hues north, back of the elevator, where
the cave-in occurred in November, and
which has since blocked the progress of
the tunnel. When completed the tun-
mel will end in a we'll at the intersec-
ton of Fifth street north, and
will drain nearly all the northern
and northwestern portions of the city.
1t will not, as is generally supposed,
convey Bassett'S creek away. This is
ridiculous. Bassett's creek is about on
4 level with the river, and if 1t con-
nected with the tunnel the latter would
be flooded at high water; it is proposed,
however, to have gate connections with
the creek, so that the tunnel can be
flushed when necessary, but that is the
entire relation Bassett's creek will bear
to the great tunnel.

THE SUCCESSFUL PLAN OF DENNIS.

was determined to get Long q
KEGS in, and roundly declared this
intention, with the result that one of
Boyington's plans was thrown out to
make room. The five plans named have
been taken from the general room to
the inner sanctum, and will remain
there until the official announcement is
made.
"Mr. Boyington sat hard on all mod
ern work." said a member of the COM
mission last night. '.He is an architect
of the old school, and modern style is
but ten years old. so he is not
thoroughly up in it. The plan of
Yost Bros. was veryIstartlingly modern,
for instance, and though it pleased
everybody, it was not favored by Mr..
BOyington. There were various agen-
cies at work on the selections, but
nothing that any one could cavil at.

gular organization, thrown together for
political effect, and there are men in it
that you or 1 would not select if we

Fifth-AleX. Murrie, Minneapolis
This is the decision of the court house
and city hall commission, awarding the
prizes for plans offered in competition
by the architects. w. FL. Dennis &
Co., of Minneapolis, will get the
first prize of S1,50O, and will
probably be employed to build the new
court house and city hall. The $1,000
prize goes to Bell. 5000 to Myers, $500 to
Long & Kees and S4O0 to Alexander
Murrie. The decision is unoffi-
cial, but is entirely reliable and
will become official at the meeting
next Wednesday. 1t is believed
the decision will be generally accepta-
BILE to the public, and it is also believed
that of the five, Dennis, as local archi-
tect, will get the contract.
The five plans were reported by sub
committee yesterday, but were
not the five selected by the
expert architect, Mr.. Darlington. The
plan of Long & Kees, the Romanesque
design, was added in the place of one
chosen by Mr.. Boyington, but which one
is not stated. 1t seems that cer-
St. Paul daily globe., 1888-03-11

hurt, but the great mass of debris had
crushed down into the tunnel and, what
was worse, had opened up several
streams, which poured steadily down
and through the tunnel. The succeed
ing four months have been passed in
remedying this cave. 1t was difficult,
dangerous and tedious piece of work. A
shaft was sunk from above, and at the
same time the work of timbering from
below began. The roof of the tunnel is
of white sand, and the water melts it
down like sugar, so it is necessary to
thoroughly solidify the roof and walls
before the casing of concrete is put i'll
the work must be done from below and
the timbers removed as rapidly as solid
material is put in. But one or two men
naturally slow. The tunnel would have
been completed but for this accident,
and yet the accident could not have Oc-
Cured in a more fortunate place. A
very few feet further would have
brought the break directly beneath the
railroad tracks and would have Oc-
casioned endless delay and difficulty.
There has been considerable comment
on the delay, but this will explain it.
The cut gives the best idea of the situa
ton at the break.
THE TUNNEL LINE.
The tunnel mouth is at the foot of
Eighth avenue south, and the line runs
up to Second street and from there
curves north to Sixth avenue. From
this point it was the intention to make a
straight shoot to Sixth avenue north, but
great howl Was raised two years ago
by the fear of washout if the tunnel
was SO near the river; the course was
changed, the line turning to Fourth
street, and following that street
to its terminus at Sixth avenue
north. The average depth below the
surface is nearly 100 feet, and the line
runs beneath the limestone ledge that
frequently crops out above the surface.
Just above and around the tunnel line
is depth of white sand or sand rock,
through which progress is rapid so long
as the sand is dry, but as great
quantity OF water has been
met with, the finest skill was
necessary to successfully casing the
tunnel and preventing the erosion of
the walls. For this purpose the tunnel
is frequently tapped for pipes and a
steady flow of spring water is met in a
dozen different places. At First avenue
north the line of the tunnel is raised
eight feet, the idea being to secure a
better quality of sand and escape the
water. Where the two lines join well
is sunk, which acts as cushion and
prevents the fall of water from wearing
out the stone foundation.
1t is conceded on all sides that the
tunnel is a remarkably fine piece OF
work in every respect, and that it re-
fleets great credit on Mr.. Sublette, the
engineer, and Mr.. Edwards, the super
intendent. Barring accidents, every
thing will be ready by Aug. l, at the
latest.

A WIFE'S KISS.

There's the kiss pressed ON the lips of the
child
OF lovers when parting at night:
The kiss of mother our sorrows beguiled,
Making the face CHEEKY and bright;
The kiss SO silly of girls who meet,
Who SO blissfully kiss in lieu;
But the kiss that lasts and makes life sweet
Is the kiss Of the wife that's true.
Kisses in kind as countless as sands
Of friendship, betrayal, deceit;
The kiss on the eyes, the forehead and hands,
The kiss that is awkward and neat;
The kiss that's giyen-the one we steal,
The kiss that awakes US all through;
But the sweetest kiss that lips can feel
Is the kiss Of the wife that's true.
There's the kiss Of youth and the kiss Of
years,
And the kiss we laid in the grave:
The kiss we press in sunshine and tears
The kiss for the brow of the brave;
But the kiss that is the kiss Of life,
To him whom the gamut runs through
That briugs surcease to anguish and strife,
Is the kiss of the wife that's true.
