Mr.. Cleyeland's Distinction.

Mr.. Cleveland will retire from the
presidency with the honorable con-
seriousness of having proved to his
countrymen that Notwithstanding the
civil war and its traditions the govern
ment is safe in the hands of any par.
ty, and of having done much to unite
in good faith communities which have
been long and bitterly severed in feel
ing. His administration will be ac-
knowledged to have been singularly
honest and patriotic, free from the
great scandals which had become too
common, and worthy of the respect OF
citizens whose views are not regulated
by party. 1t will be his distinction
also that by his courage and independ-
ence he identified his party with a
national policy which in its principle
and purpose was approved by many
who were yet unwilling, from old par
ty associations, to give him their votes
and which raised the presidential can
vass to its true level of popular dis
cussion of principles and measures

Wrong. Unfair and Ubiquitous.

Laws passed by Congress to give
business advantage to any class of
persons at the expense of the rest are
wrong, unfair and iniquitous. That
should never be the object of any law.
Such laws are exactly of piece with
the monopoly laws of the Tudor times
one of which protected" court fav-
orite i'm the manufacture of brass but
tons by making it illegal for any tail
or to put any other kind of buttons on
any coat and forbidding anybody but
the favorite to make brass buttons.
The taxing power of the United States
Government was created for no such
purpose, and every time it is used to
give any man or class of men an ad-
vantage in business over their fellows,
it is Ubiquitous. That is thesis so
plainly and simply just that its advo-
cacy before the people cannot fail to
command popular assent. 1t is the
meat and marrow of tariff reform,
which seeks to restrict the use of the
taxing power to the legitimate object
of providing the vast revenues which
the government needs. If the ques-
ton is boldly presented on its merits
there will be no doubt as to the result.
But cowardly equivocation and apol-
ogetic bedgings will never win.-N.
Y. Commercial Advertiser.

Standard Oil Company's Rebate.

Bay City, Mich, November 18th.
Editor Timberman.-In your issue of
November 10th, you refer to a state
ment made in a public speech by w.
r. Burt, the then Democratic candi-
date for governor, that lumber was
shipped into the United States from
Canada, and the tax paid by the
Standard Oil Company was rebated
to them, and ask for an explanation.
The statement of Mr.. Burt was liter
ally true, except as to the amount of
the rebate, he stating that il was
all rebated, while it is all related less
ten per cent. This rebate is on lum-
Der manufactured into box shocks for
which amounts to between for
ty and fifty per cent. of the entire
amount of lumber used by that COM
pany. This fact is not generally I'M
derstood or known; and we are relia-
bly, informed by a prominent lumber
man that the Standard Oil Company
purchases Canadian inch and a quar-
ter lumber and after resawing it; gets
a rebate on the surface measure, which
is much more than the amount paid
10 the government by the company.
This is fair instance of unjust leg
slation in the interest Of monopoly
and against the masses, being precise
" similar to the unjust rebate to Ar
mour & Co. on the salt they use. Mr..
Burt's statement therefore, about
which you inquire, is practically
correct one.-Timberman.

When President Cleveland in his
famous message to Congress demand
ed reform of the tariff, he furnished
to the country greater and more
vital question for reconsideration and
discussion than any other which had
been before the people for twenty
years. He swept aside the dead is
sues Of the time and brought the
Democracy face TO face with a great
and important principle.
II was q courageous, daring and
most manly movement, and while
from political standpoint this very
issue may be charged with Mr.. Cleve-
lands defeat, he has nevertheless won
a victory great in its results and
most important to the best interests
Of a nation. He has compelled at
tention to the fact that unnecessary
taxation is unjust taxation, and for
this will generations of his country
men rise up and call him blessed.
The Democratic party gave to the
President most loyal and hearty
support in his struggle for the eradi-
cation Of the war taxes. II stood by
him unAinchingly through the great
est and ablest canvass that has ever
been made in this country. But a
nation is not converted from old be-
licfs in year. The tariff is one Of
our most cherished political dogmas.
The country was not educated to the

 PrTrsBURG, PA, July 16.-The re- port of dissatisfaction among the mem bers of the Western Iron Manufactur- CTS Assoc. ation, caused by certain members signing the Amalgamated scale, was confirmed this morning by President Keating who authorized the statement that Ee intended to hand in his resignation at the first meeting of the association, and also that Iug X Co. will withdraw from it. Mr. keat- ing has not yet called a meeting, though he expressed the opinion that one would be called this week. It is then expected that not only Zug X Co.,, but other firms will withdraw, while others will not be represented, with the re- suit that the association is likely to cease to exist. The Amalgamated As soeiation members are generally of the opinion that the disruption of the Man ufaeturers Association would be a bad move both for employer and em- ploye. The officials are anxious that an effort be made to have it continued and offer to cooperate so that both manufacturers and the workers can hold conferences in the future the same as in the Tast. One signature, that of F. l.. Kimberly X Co. of sharon, Pa. was added to the scale to-day. The works started up in all depart ments at once.

Poor Mrs. Brooks and her daughter remained at the hotel suffering such suspense and anguish as only mother and ster can. The question of in- forming them of the unhappy termina- ton of the case was discussed. Mir. Fauntleroy finally addressed brief note to Mrs. Brooks, telling her of the Governors action. This was dis patched by messenger and delivered to her at the hotel. The news was a sad blow to both, but they brayely withstood the terrible shock. There is nothing hysterical about either Mrs. Brooks or her daughter. But that their spirits are crushed 10 one can doubt. No one was permitted 10 in terrupt their grief.
 MT. Fauntleroy expressed himself as greatly surprised at the Governors acton. He had firmly relied upon ex- eeutiye elemency purely on the ground
