TIE NEW YORK Herald. in m article op
posing the propositions 10 add the direct
land tax bill to the sundry civil bill, says
1.-The agreement in the House was that the
bill should be postponed uotil day fixed
next December and should then be voted on
without delay. That was a perfectly fair
proposition" The Herald ought to know
that the openly avowed object of those who
defeated the bill referred to, was to kill it
sffsctually, and that since it was defeated
they have feIictated themselves upon the
accomplishment Of that object. When De-
cember comes the bill will be no nearer its
passage than it is now, and that fact is as
well known in Congress as anything else.

THE LATE speech of Senator Voorhees,
has, and very properly, lowered him great
deal in the estimation of the party to which
he belongs, but that OF Senator Iogalls, de.
cidedly the more reprehensible, so far from
iniuring him with his party, has helped him
no little. Nearly all the republican organs
are complmenting him, and it is announced
that the republican national league propose
to. tender him public reception in Wash
ingtop, to which the Republican ladies and
gentlemen" then il that city, will be in
vited. Sectionalism still retains its hold
upon the republicans of the North, Gen.
Johnston to the contrary. Notwithstanding.

The OHIO republican platform contains
no reference to the so-cslled civil service re.
form. The national platform in which there
shall be similar omission, or, what would
he even more popular, that shall denouHce
and repudiate the whole civil service law
and rules, will add greatly to the chances
of success of the candidate who may stand
upon 1t. As Mr.. White. very sensible and
practical Washington city democrat, says,
the present civil service reform system must
be humbug as long as political parties
continue to exist.

AN Atchison crank, bent on enforc-
ing an honest ballot, challenged SEN
ator Ingalls, vote Tuesday because, as
he said, he believed the senator had not
registered. But he had, and the chal-
lenge was Withdrawn. Doubtless the
fool was honest In what he did, and
thought he was helping to purify cleo
tions and render the state q service.
But does honesty and sincerity sane
ton such methods in effeeting re-
forms? To ask is 60 answer that
query. There are many such people
with whimsical notions about reforms
of various kinds, who band themselves
together to do something big, to over
throw an old party, for example, and
then reform the world-make angels
of US all-who go about it very much
in the fashion OF this fellow who chal
lenged Senator Ingalls, vote, and have
no better success. He. that is the
challenger, is doubtless well fitted to
become president or secretary of a
guild or society for the prevention of
vice, or for abolishing national banks,
or prohibiting theNuse of tobacco, or
the hustle. There were a number OF
such parties who sought to cut swell
In the late election. Now where are
theyp They were like gnats Ia a cy-
clone. And their dear reforms. where
are theyP Where is the hustle and the
tallor-made dress? Where fashion put
them, to stay until fashion replaces
them with something more grotesque
| and outlandish still.

few days ago, she was not able to talk

What a wintry time she must have had
playing "A Winters Tale'' to British
ers, when she might have been making
love to Romeo in Philadelphia or New
York. Mary is a very good girl but
she should be careful lest her cOnsum-
ing love for the land of her birth may
inspire her with the idea that it is a
good place in which to live, a thing that
would be now most repugnant to her
Anglican tastes and ideas. Think of
being deprived of the privilege Of ad-
dressing friend now and then as "Me

TIE CAUsEs.

Who knows them? Everybody. That
is, everyone thinks he knows. Every
one has a reason reasons are As plen-
tiful as blackberries. There is no trick
in finding one or a dozen for what has
happened.
If the result had been less decisive;
If the scale had turned as it did four
years ago, but in the estimation q q
hair, reasons would still be as plenti-
full, but more diverse, more varied.
The general verdict, the one reason
which the great majority assign as the
cause of the catastrophe that has be-
fallen the democracy is tariff reform,
or free trade" as it is called in de-
rision.
Whatever local causes may have con-
tributed to the general result, the
tariff policy of the democratic party, as
outlined in the presidents message OF
last December and later in the Mills
bill, is the real cause. OF this there can
be no doubt. Whatever the future may
have in store for protection, the late
victory will be regarded by the republi-
cans as an endorsement of it.
Whether they will or not during the
administration of General Harrison
alter their tariff policy and wrest from
the democrats what they now consider
will be a winning card four years
hence, depends on the wisdom OF the
leaders.
The tariff problem still remains Il
be worked out. Harrison election
does not dispose of it. That event
merely shifts the responsibility to re
publican shoulders. The attempt tt
solve it wrecked the democratic party
If republicans are wise they will profit
by the lesson taught In the late elect
ton. 1t has its lesson, and one toe
that will develop some surprises for
the politician.
The labor problem in its relation to
the tariff, presents a complicated and
troublesome question. 1t will require
careful handling.
Then on the attitude Of the govern
ment towards the south will depend a
great deal. That section at present
looks with distrust and more or less
fear on the republican party. We're
it not SO, Georgia, Alabama and
North Carolina would now be found in
the republican column.
Democrats will not abandon tariff
reform. That will be their watchword
in the future. Although it has wrecked
the party now, they have faith in its
ultimate success. Whether the con-
tfnued success of the republican party
depends on its persistent opposition to
it may be well questioned.

The entire country was shocked this
morning at hearing of the fearful mine
explosion near Pittsburgh Kansas, in
which l6O miners have beyond the
shadow of doubt met horrible death
in the bowels of the earth. The ex-
plosion occurred at the early morning
hour just when the men were prepar-
ing to come to the surface, two of them
having baaely got to the top of the
shaft when the explosion occurred Grip
pling aud manning them fearfully. 1t
is dreadful to contemplate the horrible
details Of such holocaust, such whole

Thu Railroads.

The wetness and depth of the snow
has almost blocked the Santa Fe and
but one or two freights had gone out al
IL O'Clock Friday. The } ard at
that time was full of trains and the
yardmen were having serious time in
making up trains.
A conductor who came in over the
Southern Kansas in the night reported
a rough time getting through on ac-
count of the snow and slush. All en-
gines and cars coming in to-day are
covered with five or six inches OF the
snow. A train of stock from the west
came in at 10 O'Clock. The men in
charge of the stock looked anything
but cheerful and were much afraid of
getting laid out before getting to the
Kansas City market. The midnight
passenger eastward bound was forty
five minutes late, while the morning
trains west were all over an hour be-
hind.
At twelve O'Clock no trains had come
in and prospects looked gloomy. No 81
was stuck in the snow, ten miles this
side of Newton. and No. g., mail and
passenger, was west of it and is not
likely to get through for some time
Several carloads of cattle we're laid

sheltered.
The Missouri Pacific passenger from
the north went through on time. The
freight was six hours behind.

ONEof the boldest engineering
schemes brought forward for long
time is that proposed by Major Powell
of damming up some of the canyons of
the Rocky mountains and governing
them into immense reservoirs of
water, for use in irrigating the
plains below, and also serving to reg
ulate the flow of water in the western
tributaries of the Mississippi. These
immense ravInes, extending far into
the heart of the mountains, with their
comparatively narrow mouths. offer
extraordinary Opportunitiesfor accom-
plishing such work at a small ex-
pense. The practical value of such
a system of reservoirs, however,
could only be determined by actual
trial
