THE TARIFF DEBATE.

will not close on Wednesday as at first
determined. The speeches will be pro-
longed and the ora,ory will not be turned

single opinion in the House will be
changed by all this windy intoning
of long drawn delay by buncombe orators

There were already three army bills be
fore the House of Representatives when
Mr. Laird comes with new plan. The
others tend to decreasing the expenses
and numbers and retaining the efficiency
but Mr. Laird has been able to construct
new scheme for this same purpose in
his bill of twelve sections, just introduced
into the House.
A distinctive feature of his plan is that
of largely reducing the number of infan
try regiments All the other bills have
resorted TO ingenious and, in some cases
complicated devices for bringing about
the results which they all desire, without
decreasing the number Of regimentsl or
CARNATIONS but Mr. Laird takes 1
shorter way.

Doctors doubtless know their own bus
mess better than other people know it,
but as the doctor is "a great institution

and therefore, we ask what the medical
association means by recent protest
against the number OF doctors and of
medical colleges. The president of the
American Medical Association in his an

The establishment of the American
Folklore Society, under the efficient
Presidency of Professor Francis J. Child
Harvard College, indicates that the study
of our native rural tales, legends, and
superstitions, hitherto conducted after a
desultory and fitful fashion, is about to be
undertaken on a scientific basis.
The study OF Folklore is rather
modern, the term itself not being over
forty years old. Everybody who has
read or heard quaint old stories must
acknowledge their fascination. One of
the most valuable collections of speci-
mems are the negro yarns of Uncle
Remus' by Joel Gambler Harris

The New York World with its accus-
toned quickness Of thought, discovers
that the right way TO settle the difficulty
with the wicked Sultan OF Morocco is to
take up Mr. Dunham's plan and have a
war balloon that can sail oyerthe infidels
and drop caricatuIes and dynamite down
on the Notwithstanding natives, blow up
mosques and convince the entire concern
Of the grandeur of the western baIba-
rians. At the same time the construc-
ton OF balloons will reduce the surplus
and give both parties "A chance to fall
back on the old plan Of promise In
stead of action.
II cannot be denied that there is a good
deal in this ii the Democrats could
prove the success Of a war balloon and a
reduction of the surplus at the same time
the victory would be theirs.

HONESTY OR RING RULE.

There is no Disgusting the fact that
there is an amount of ring rule in Viz
ginis politics, especially in the cities that
sbould be reformed both for the sake OF
honesty and policy. Every time the
Democratic party gives itself away TO
ring management and the political ma
chine there is an afterclap of "independ
ence" which gathers force from the story
of false counting or ballot-stuiiing.
The Democrats of Virginia seem TO
for1et that they cannot forever live on
the crv o. wolf and that Malone is not
quite so much dreaded as he once was
The party has let 90 It's principles many
times under ihc plea of self preservation,
bnt now when we have the majority and
the power. and the fair promise of a con
tinuance under good behavior ii will not
do to perform any tricks. The party
should command the respect OF It's mem
hers and of its opponents or else 1t
strengthens its enemies and weakens
Itself
The Norfolk break in the party is
charged to some complaint of un'airness
in primary election. 1t is to be hoped
that if the question i, settled by the ex-
ecutiye committee there will be clear
and distinct denuncialion OF any and
every attempt at iockeying primary e'ec-
tions. The Democratic party cannot al
ford it, even if they could condone such
ofrenses against the rights OF The people.
