The lack of perfect harmony-the sub

ham and Harrison in Indiana seems to
have cooled the ardor of the Globe-Dem-

for the Republican nomination for presi-

ward Iowas senator, w. B. Allison. In
commenting on his candidacy and avail
ability the Globe says: ''Allison's rela-
ton to the silver question would
strengthen him in the western and
southern states, while it would not in
jure him in the east He is almost as
intimately connected as Mr.. Bland with
the compulsory silver coinage law of
1873. The measure, in the form in
which it was enacted, was his creation.
HIS championship of silver would proba-
bly, win him thousands OF votes in the
south and west, if he We're nominated
for the presidency, which no other Re-
publican candidate could gain. The
fact that he Invested the coinage meas
ure of all the most vicious and absurd
features which were incorporated in it
by Mr. Bland would insure him the SUD-
port of the friends of the gold standard
in the eastern states. His position on
the tariff also may be said to be fortu-
nate for similar reason. While being
firmly committed to the preservation of
the policy which has done so much to
diversity and strengthen American in
dustries, he holds the moderate view
taken by the majority of the people of
the west. Mr.. Allison is an able, sincere
and consistent Republican"

In 1850 the street car lines of New
York carried 100000 passengers, in
1860, $4,000, 900; in 1870, 1O0,000,000; in
1880, 1900, 900; and in 1887, 100000
600. A writer in the New York Times
estimates that ten years hence the num-
Der of passengers carried by whatever
means of local transit the city may then
possess, will be nearly 1000, 0O0,0 900. Per-
haps this marvellous increase of travel
and the inadequate facilities for accom-

credit for the proposed change. 1t will

There are as MANY opinions on the tariff

There are as many opinions on the tariff
as there are states, and every view of the
case has able advocates. Now if this ILL
understood subject must be legislated
upon, let a committee of one from each
state in the senate or house be appointed
to take the matter in hand and frame a
bill. 1t is not a political question, and

capital out of it may find that it is easier

There is some truth but good deal of
error in the foregoing. The tariff is not,
or should not be, partisan one to the
extent of jeopardizing the best interests
of the whole people. yet it is essentially
a political question; affecting the coun-
try's finances it may be regarded as the
leading question in our system of politi-
cal economy and should be so considered.
Nevertheless, great political party has
been for years engaged in a Systematic
endeavor to make capital out of it. If
its mistakes don't cost it all that it has
