THE Republican Senate having re-
jected the treaty with Canada which
was believed to be a Fair and equitable
adjustment OF the Fisheries question,
President Cleveland on Thursday of last
week sent message to Congress and
the Senate recommending plan OF re-
ta!iation. 1t came upon the Republican
Senators like thunderbolt from a clear
sky and completely dazed them. They
rejected the treaty from purely partisan
motives, intending to charge the Presi-
dent with neglecting to protect Ameri.
can interests IN Canadian waters but the
President has taken them at their word
and asks OF them the power to retaliate
on the Canadians. II they grant his
request and he fails to protect our in
terests then they may have some cause
to complain. But the responsibility is
now on the Senate to sustain the palri-
oiic position OF President Cleveland, or
bow in humble submission to British
influence
LUG stated Is
this. Our fishermen have been subjected to
all sorts OF annoyances. the greatest OF which
is the refusal to allow them to ship their fish
free OF duty. 1t was a disputed question
whether they had a right under the treaty OF
Washington, which mas expired. At all
events they have no such rights now. That
is plainly shown.
To settle everything peaceably a commits
sion was appointed TO draft another treaty.
Meanwhile the Act Of 1887. known as the re-
taliation Act, was passed, giving the Presi-
dent power in case OF proyocation to sus-
pend all commercial relations with Canada.
Supposing that article % was still In force.
Mr. Edmunds led his partisaus into a
declaration against any new treaty, claiming
that all that was necessary was 10 enforce
our rights Article - Is dead. consequently
there is nothing left for Mr. Eumunds TO
base his claims upon. he has rejected the
new treaty and has refused to suggest any
amendments that would be satisfactory to
hin.
Negotiations with Canada are now of.
The President has done his best TO settle all
questions by arbitration. The Senate has
defeated this, and be now meets the Senato
face to face on its own ground.

The Republican party is certainly in
dilemma and no one knows this fact
better than the Republican party itself
Chairman Quay, who is engineering :ts
unpopular campaign, has himself strong
ly intimated that the Republican lead
ers are indulginR in too much ipjudici-
Gus talking and he has otherwise
expressed himself in a manner th At
gives the impression that the grand
old party" is engaged in its last contest.
AFTER nominating Presidential
ticket the rapidly decsying party of the
monopollsts shouted that the fight
would be between the advocates of the
present tariff system and the champions
OF tariff reform. TheD a Republican
Senator made the discovery that the
Northwestern States are strongly op.
posed to the present tariff and be COM
municated this fact to his brother Sena-
tors. For the purpose OF overcoming
tnis trouble the framing of q tariff bill
was suggested and the question. to
frame, or not to frame, is still pending.
Or course, this blunder was a blow to
the high protection party, but when the
great and only Blaine, OF whom mighty
things were expected, made his speech
In defense Of Trusts. Quay was simply
enraged. and he has privately denounced
the "Uncrowned King" in language
strong and bitter.
Beaten on every side the grand old
party took up the cry that President
cleveland was in sympathy with Eug>
land and the Presidents message on the
nsheries question knocks the silly false
hood ''as high rs Gilieroy's kite"

ALLEN G. THURMAN, the Old
Roman was wildly cheered all along the
route to and from Port Huron last week
and at Chicago more than $4,000 people
turned out to do him honor. He made
number of plain convincing speeches
on the tariff question, and those who
had the good fortune to hear him are
stronger than ever in the opinion that
the tariff is a tax not only upon import
ed but also upon domestic products :;
that the present high duties are unne-
cessary, unequal and unjust, and that
they are of direct benefit only to mon
opolists at the expense Of the working
men.
Judge Thurman also spoke in caustic
style of the the Know-nothing party, to
whom an Irishman WAS an abomination
OF abominations, and OF how the same
people who were engaged in the pro-
scription of American citizens for
conscience sake are now seeking the
Irish vote by misrepresenting Grover
Cleveland and asserting that he is under
British influence.

THE Democratic State committee on
Tuesday. says the Pittsburs Post. nom
mated Henry Meyer. ESQ.,, OF this city,
for Auditor General. Mr.. Meyer stands
high here at home in his party and with
his political opponents. He is thorough
ly we'll qualified for the position, and
will make a good run. Whether he gets
there or not it is quite certain that Mr..
McCamant will have to hustle to beat
him, and the red-hsired and hypocritic-
al Republican chairman will need to
marshal his cohorts to the best of his
ability.
Mr.. Meyer ought to be elected. The
Office OF Auditor General Is an import
ant one. 1t has been in the control Of
the Republicans for a good many years,
and it is time there was rotation and
change in that office. We had q pretty
general overhauling Of Capitol Hill
when Mr.. Pattison was Governor and
Mr.. Africa Secretary Of internal affairs,
but even at that time the Treasury and
the Auditor Generals Office were in the
hands of the Republicans, and were not
weeded out as all departments should
be. There may be nothing wrong in
that department of the State Govern
ment. and then there may be.
We believe that Mr.. Meyer can be
elected. He is fine specimen of man
hood morally, mentally and physically.
He is perfectly adapted to the task of
overhauling the Auditor Generals de-
partment, and administering the Office
in the best interests of the State. He
is not known as practical politician,
and is not chronic ofice seeker, but he
is man OF affairs, representative Of
the young Democracy, as Governor
Pattison was, with pleasing presence
that wins friends everywhere by its
frank, earnest honesty.
Allegheny county will do its duty by
him. 1t will give him a rousing good
vote, comprising the solid and barmo-
nious Democracy, with very respects-
BILE Republican contingent. If it did
less than this it would not do half its
duty. And the prospects are tha. the
rest of the State will get out more than
an off years vote :or him. In fact,
Democracy is blooming in the old Key>
stone State this year. and has buzz.
saw that is not safe to monkey with.
1t has a righteous cause to fight for,
and that IS big element Of strength in
light. In Mr.. Meyer it has good
candidate to fight for, and thereby is
strengthened.
The Post bespeaks for the candidate
nominated on Tuesday the bes: efforts
of every Democrat in the State as a man
worthy OF their franchises and good
wishes. Aud it bespeaks for him the
vote of every honest man in the State
Whether he be Democrat or not, con-
fident that such votes will not be mis-
placed. And the Post believes that
there are great many honest men in
this State, not strictly Democrats, who
are going 20 vote Democratic tickets in
the interest of good government for the
people.

CHAIRMAN QUAY, says the Cincin-
natl Enquirer, has been advised to take
Mr. Blaine in charge and keep him from
running away from the Republican plat
form. That is too big job for Quay.
While Republican journals have been
circulating misrepresentation about
the situation in the Democratic Cam
paign Committee the Republican organ
ization has been at loose ends. Mr..
Quay. the Chairman, seems TO be the
least influential person in the party
establishment. He was against any
tinkering with the tariff in the Senate,
but was overridden. He was in favor
of recognizing the Malone element in
Virginia, but was overwhelmingly
voted down. And now there seem, to
De conspiracy to get him politically
entangled with Blaine. and killed.

The people are now paying $50 OO0-,
600 annually for the privilege of contin-
uing a prohibitory tariff. This large
amount of money is extracted from the
pockets of the people on necessaries of
life. 1t is $50. OO0, 600. remember,
more than every legitimate demand for
running the Government. This money
issimply robbery. 1t is the penalty for
