offending the government of China. This
treaty went to China for ratification by the
Imperial authorities, who were supposed to
look upon it with approval. But on Septem-
Der LIST rumor, brought by some English
newspapers, reached this country, that the.
Chinese government had rejected the treaty.
The Pacific coast was clamoring for restric-
ton, and here was an opportunity for Mr..
Cleveland to make some much needed politi-
cal capital. Before three days Mr.. Cleve
lands right hand man in the House Of Rep
resentatiyes, Mr.. Scott of Pennsylvania,
introduced in the House the Chinese Exclu-
sion bill, designed to fill the gap left by the
supposed rejection Of the treaty. To be sure
Mr.. Cleveland had no official notification of
the rejection of the treaty but the Pacific
coast was anxious and he was needy poll
tician with an election coming on. The bill
was hurried through the House and went to
the Senate. There it occurred to one of the
Republican members to ask whether the
rumor OF the rejection of the treaty was true.
1t was found that it was not, and that the
Chinese government was still considering
the treaty. Still the Senate in spite of the
protests of Hoar, Edmunds, Evarts and
other Senators, passed the bill. An effort
was made to reconsider it and only failed by
the narrow vote of q to 20. Senator Ed
munds's resolution printed in yesterday
mornings dispatches, was made in a last
effort to prevent the proceedings. Whether
Mr.. Cleveland awaits the bill with pleasure
is not known. If he vetoes it he will hurt
himself on the Pacific coast as well as dis
credit Mr.. Scott who was his tool in starting
the bill; and if he signs it he will give an
affront to friendly nation for the sake OF
winning votes at home. He is capable Of
taking the second alternative, however, as
the retaliation message has shown.
The Portland daily press., 1888-09-21

The Boston workingmen have had the OPP
portunity of hearing from the lips of an emf
nent English workingman description of
the condition of labor in free trade England,
where everything is cheap but money. This
English workingman is Secretary H. j..
Pettifer, of the Workingman's Association
for the defense of British Industry, and from
his own ample experience he declared in
fremont Temple Wednesday night; "There
is famine in England of the very worst
kind, not famine of food, for food is wonder
fully cheap all over the country. This
famine is a famine of money; famine of
work; famine Of the power to purchase
the products of labor. There are over $780,
900 people there without the power
to purchase. What is the good of talk
ing of the cheapness of goods to them?"
This little description of the condition in
England goes to the heart of the tariff ques-
ton. The problem for the laborers in the
industrial nations is not only to secure a
cheaper supply of the necessaries and luxu-
ries OF life, but also the proper distribution
of them. This distribution goes on properly
when the workingman has money in his
pocket, and he has money in his pocket when
he has work. This is why the protectionists
insist that it is better for Americans to
diversity their own industries instead of de-
pending on England for supplies of cheap
manufactures

necessities, if stricken with the fever Their
great want is of money; and that want is

What marvel of dispatch and security the

ANALYSIS OF MAINE VOTE.
IN. y. SUM-
There are no signs of drift in Maine to
Mr.. Cleveland, and if there is any drift it is
the other way. Figures have been arranged
at headquarters to give the impression that
because the gain over the Republican vote OF
1884 is only SOL, while the Democratic gain
over the Democratic vote of 1884 is 2,047,
about 775 voters of $4,000 went over from
the Republican party to the Democratic in
this election. This showing does not stand
analysis. The Republican plurality is IS. 495,
or 267 more than the average plurality in
Presidential years since 1868, without taking
1880 into account, when the Republicans
were beaten by Fusion. This years plural
ity is 1856 short of the plurality in 1884, bat
In 1884 the Prohibitionist vote was only /, 100
while this year it was 1871. The gain in the
Prohibitionist vote covers the difference be-
tween the Republican and the Democratic
gain, with ABS votes to spare. Prohibitionist
candidates In Maine draw no strength from
the Democratic party.

Is what the Mills bill will do If it becomes law
BY its adoption our home market would be en-
larged and our foreign trade greatly increased
Eastern Argus
Were the reduction of duties from All per
cent. to 42a per cent. an honest reduction,
no Republican would complain. as all Re-
publicans believe in honest and wise revis-
ion Of the tariff But the reduction of the
Mills bill is not an honest revision. 1t is
merely part of scheme to break down the
tariff, by first making it unjust and unpopu-
lar, as it would be if Millss plans of protect
ing rice and sugar by high duties and leaving
wool and lumber on the free list were to be
adopted. Still better evidence of the dishon-
esty Of the percentage argument is the fact
that, while loudly proclaiming that they
favor retaining tariff of 42i or 40 per cent,
the Democrats are continually making free
trade declamations against the whole pro-
tective tariff. And the Argus is forced by
the leadership Of its party to join the chorus,
as 1t did yesterday morning to the following
effect:
To reason that a tariff (Which is taxation)
causes today, or has caused in the past, the
Industrial progress of the United States IS TO over
look the thousand things which have affected the
protection OF wealth in this country: or wonder
tuily rich natural resources; the high civilization
OF our population from the start in new country
the energy, intelligence, ingenuity, and power OF
Invention OF American lab0rers; the stimulating
forces Of our Democratic institutions; and the
enormous growth OF capital which has outstripped
even the growth Of population.
II tariff does not encourage industrial
progress what earthly reason is there for
keeping that 42a per cent. tariff of the Mills
billp The only possible reason according
to this form of reasoning. must be that it will
preserve the health OF the Democratic party.

There is no argument in the range of the PRESS
or any other Republican paper, that can show
why a tariff that is daily pouring stream of the
peoples money into the governments treasury.
that does not need il, and into the pockets Of
wealthy monopolists, who ought not to get it,
should not be reduced Eastern Argus.
The Argus evidently means by this that
the Democrats have monopoly of such ar
guments; and it cannot be denied that they
are well supplied. The Southern Demo-
Gratis were evidently well stocked with argu-
ments when they convinced Mills that the
tariff on rice should be 100 per cent; and
President Hayemeyer, of the Sugar Trust.
must have been equally well supplied when
he persuaded the Democratic Ways and
Means committee to put up the duty on
sugar.

The Chinese Exclusion bill which the Sem
ate has passed and which Senator Edmunds
tried to arrest in its way back to the House
of Representatives, seems to be most
unfortunate piece of legislation, not only for
the reputation of Mr.. Cleveland but for the
good name of our policy of dealing with
foreign nations. The treaty recently nego-
tiated with China is very we'll understood in
this country. Our exclusion laws having
failed to satisfy the Pacific coast, negotia-
tons were entered into with China and
treaty was formed which, it was expected,
would enable US to exclude Cinnamon from
