A wise choice has been made IN the election
of DR. Thomas S. Hastings as president OF the
Union Theological Seminary. DIR. Hastings
has been long and favOrably known IN TINS
city both as pastor and professor, and DUNG
the half dozen years or more that he mas been
connected with the seminary he has been one
of the most popular members OF the faculty.
As secretary of that body he was brought INTO
intimate relations with President llltchcock'
and he is doubtless better prepared than any
one else TO- carry into execution the plans al
ready formed for the seminary'S future. 1t
is not an enviaJle task to succeed such presi-
dents as Dr. Adams and DIR. Hitchcock and
DIR. Hastings. with characteristic modesty,
shrnks from assuming that responsibility. A
fact which will be helpful to the success Of his
administration, if he accepts the Office, is that
he possesses the entire confidence of the pastors
Of the city churches.

The Assemblymcn have decided to abandon
their dangerous chamber and meet in the AS
sembly parlor There will be only chairs there
for them at present. and perhaps no desks will
be procured. Under the circumstances they
will probably be anxious to dispatch the public

reason for further delay in legislation. If that

CaIamitic- Predicted.

Since this debate began We have heard
the same iteration and rcitcration from
Jay to day. The burden OF the argument,
II II can bc digniiicd by that name, Is that
II we pass the Mills bill the particular i'm
dustry under discussion will be ruined.
The petitions from manufacturers and
other interested parties are 10 the same
purport. Ruin, swift aud complete, will
follow Ne 20 every item touched by tho
bill. II makes no difference whether tho
item be put on the free list or whether a
prohibitoy duty be reduced within tho
possibility Of slight competition, the
result viii be the same. Ruin 10 the
industry Is incyitablel Tho persons
employed will be thrown out Of employ
ment, the factories or mills will be closed.
aud bankruptcy and financial depression
will ensuc. IL would be inyidious to
quote from anyone ON tho other side TO
illustrate the character Of their lamcnta-
tons and forcbOdings in case this bill
should pass In reference b. wool, they
NIL agree ON the othcrsidc OF the Chamber
with few cxccptionsl that the placing
Of wool on the free list and the reduction
OF the duties on manufactured wooden
goods 10 40 per cent al valorcm will
wreck wool growing and wool nanuiac-
turing in this country.
They eau arc nothing. after the passage
Of this bill, ~ far ~ the wool interests aro
concerned, except the slaughter Of our
sheep for mutton closing Of our wooden
mills, aud flooding 81 our country with
the manufactured wooden goods Of FREQ
trade England, whose manufacturer, in
view Of the destruction OF our own sheen
and mills, will charge their ogn prices.
We will then be without tho home supply
and at the mercy Of the enemy. DO gem

fnct which controls the subject

A BREWER ON THE TARIFF.
What Everard Thinks Of the Protection
to Home Industry Theory

10 hOIue industry IneOry.
'Please tell my friends through the Star
that am heartily in favor of supporting
Cleveland and Thurman, reduced taxation
and honest Democratic government" said
James Everard, the well-known brewer,
last evening.
Republicans have recently been indus
triously circulating the report that Mr..
Everard was supporting Harrison and
Morton because the Democratic party had
committed itself to a reduction OF the
tari6. Mr.. Everard is very indignant at
these reports. and states his position in
strong language.
Il employ between 600 and 700
men," said Mr.. Everard. ''The beers
and ales | make are mostly consumed by
laboring men. My interests are bound up
with theirs. They must be prosperous
before | can make money. DO you sup
pose that l for moment would support
the Democratic party in its scheme for a
reduction OF the tariff il / were not con.
WINGED that IL would benefit the country at
large and especially the men who work for
daily wagesY Go to the men employ and
see whether or not they have steady work
at good wages. They are engaged in a
business not protected by the tariff. II is
true that there is a tariff at 20 cents
gallon on beers aud ales, but it does not
protect, because ii is not necessary. Even
ii it were necessary, it would under exist
ing conditions, afford no real protection"
"How does the tariff benefit your en-
ployes?"
ut does not benefit them. How can it?
There is no restriction on labor coming TO
this country excepting the Chinese. Tho
men l employ have 10 sell their labor in
composition with the labor Of the whole
world. Here is fact that must not 10
lost sight OF. Men sell their labor rs any
other commodity is sold. They get the
best price they can. Employers buy labor,
and buy it as cheaply rs they can.
ut happens that the natural conditions
In the United States are 80 favorable that
good wages is the rule. am convinced,
however that the tariff has no influence in
nking the rate OF wages-none whatever.
II 1t had, why should free trade England
pay on an average about double the wages
that are paid in protected France and Ger
many? While the tariff does not increase
wages, II does very much to reduce the
purchasing power OF days work. Il
does not add a cent day to what / pay
my men, but IL does make them pay
more, much more, for everything they
buy, from the clothes they wear to the tin
pail in which they carry their lunch. the
sugar that goes in their coffee, the coal
they burn, and the carpets on their
floors."

THE PEOPLE SAY HE Is RIGHT"
The Instinct OF Patriotism In the Com
mon Masses Indorses Cleveland.


The Philadelphia Ledger independent
Republican, expresses regret that the Sem
ate did not adjourn, instead OF taking up
the Presidents message in hot haste. "If
they had 30 postponed the consideration
OF a message and n proposed measure
which il was manifest at that time, and
has been made moro manifest since, that
they were neither DESTROYS nor willing 20
discuss without more time TO the matter
over" it remarks, 'the indiscreet remarks
made by Senators Edmunds and Hoar on
Friday would not have been made, and it
is quite probable the Republican treat
ment OF the message would have been
widely different, more creditable 10 them
rs senators and in all likelihood much
more TO the advantage OF the party Of
which they are members. For, in tho
meantime, the country has been heard
from, and there can be no doubt whatever
that. whilo all the Democrats agree with
the President and most warmly support
him, AS is natural enough they should,
aud while the active party men among the
Republicans are inclined, ms a rule, 90
take sides against the President as being
engaged in mancuyer for party adyan-
tage, the common sense Of the masses Of
the people and their instinct OF patriotism
say lac Is right, and indicate that they arc
ready 10 stand by him."
