The Terror Of . First Night.

Manager Edward Aronson, Of the
Casino, says that one of the peculiar diff
culties that an operatic manager has to
contend with is the terror Of his company
at first night. In all dramatic perfor-
mances, he says, there is a liability 10
nervousness upon first night, and n
liability to exasperating accidents that no
care in rehearsal can prevent, and with
singers il is much moro likely to be
troublesome than with those who are
actors only.
I'VE find very frequently" he said
that most experienced people, those who
have the most reason to feel confident Of
the kindly appreciation Of the public, will
hesitate, forget their lines, forget their
business and altogether act below par
upon the first production Of a new opera
l have noticed during an experience Of
many years, and think that other man.
ayers will say the same thing, that those
who have to sing upon the stage are more
likely TO be nervous upon Z first appear

How the Deadlock Came About.


The votes of Msssrs. Reed, Cannon and
Randall, of the Committee on Rules of the
House OF Reprssetstives-Mr. Carlisle
voting in the negative and Mr.. Mills being
absent-haye made possible the present
deadlock in the lower House of Congress.
Mr.. Randall voted with the two Republi-
can members to make the direct tax bill q
special order for Wednesday last, although
every Congressman knew that q fierce re-
sisianee would be made to the measure.
The filibustering that has been resorted to
in order to prevent a vote upon this bill
has subtracted q considerable portion Of
time from the two weeks preceding April
IS, during which period the revenue re-
formers had hoped to clear the legislative
decks for action On the question Of tariff
revision. This hope must now he aban-
doned. Accuse OF Mr.. Randalls pres
euce on the Committee on Rules the House
has been led away from important and
most pressing issues and plunged into a
faetious fight over a matter which involves,
even in its least Objectionable aspect, only
a question of ~dissipsting tho surplus in the
Federal treasury.

ANOTHER ENFORCEMENT OF MP.
CLEVELAND.

The call for the Republican State Con-
in Wisconsin to elect delegates 10
the National Convention has the following
declaration on the tariff question:
All voters who oppose the doctrine OF
free trade as un-American and dangerous
aud who favor such protection to Ameri-
can industries as will yield q fair return
to capital aud liberal wages to labor, and
who favor a reduction Of internal taxes, a
reduction of our tariff ldIcs, a reduction
Of ~taratioa on imports, placing on the Jree
Hst as nearly as possible The neesssariss, anu
making the Injuries CT life bear the ex-
pense Of government, are invited 10 Join
10 the election Of delegates to this eonSen-
ton.
Speaking of this call the Chicago Tribune
Tariff reduction is held by an over
whelmiDg majority of the Republicans OF
Wisconsin, as well IS Of other Western
States, as an absolute necessity for this
of the Union. Ii the editor OF the
Tribune had written the call for the Wis
consin convention its meaning would have
been the same in respect to the tariff In
all essential particulars. Striking out the
a~llusion to the reduction Of internal taxes,
aad declaring that tobacco and whisky are
cheap enough now, the Wisconsin call
would embody an almost perfect state
ment of moderate and reasonable protec-
ton. A reduction Of the liquor taxes is
not required by public morals, the good
of the people, or popular opinion. Drop
that demand and the rest Of the call is all
right"
The Republicans of the agricultural
west and northwest are in q very amusing
predicament. Bluster as they will, when
il comes to the point they are compelled
to endorse Mr.. CLEvELADS's tariff views.
The Chicago TriJaRe is honest enough to
acknowledge the corn and tell the truth
about what the rank and file OF its con-
.aIituency really do want.

CHARLESTON, W. Va, April s.-Messis
George j. Atkins and A. ]. Decker, Of
Ohio, recognizing the advantages Of the
Kanawha Valley for the manufacture OF
iron, have interested som Northern aud
Eastern capital, and will erect during the
coming summer q rolling mill, put and
bolt works and foundry, machine shop and
boiler works. We have immense guam
titles of natural gas and coal practically
free from sulphur. The three plants will
employ about 800 hands, and will I'M
doubtedly more than double n pOpula-
ton. Our real estate being comparatively
limited, the industries will no doubt more
than quadruple the value of real estate,
aud capital seeking investment could not
do better THAI to come to Charleston. In b
near future we will also have q Car works,
chain factory and many other valuable
manufacturing industries. We have ON
mountains timber of every kind, and dur
ing the past ten days there has been mil

out of Elk river and other streams tribu-
tory to the Great Kauawha. In a few more
years West Virginia, with her immense

WHILE Messrs. CAMHBELL and HUB
BARD are going about talking high tariff to
Republican clubs, the following comes to
cur notice, which is q Of innumera-
BILE like appeals from genuine Republican
sources, and which leads us to wonder
whether it wouldn't be we'll for the &. o. p.
to stop for q moment and find out what it
really does, "a a party, want. 1t is from
the st. Paul POReer-PreSS:
The Republican party cannot safely go
before the country in November on the
plat orrn which il outlined by the report Of
the Republican members OF the Ways and
Means Committee. 1t ia not worth while
to minee matters or 70 shut the eyes to
proved facts in order to come into harmony
with MeSsrs. Kelley and Mckinley. The
country has been awakened to the import
ance Of the tariff issue. The question Of 3
reduction has been agitated and will be
agitated. The voter this year will have
convictions behind his ballot He is faith
full to his old party ties, a. lGng a. these
are o strained and hardened
into bonds. He is ready to stand
AZ staunch as ever behind the Re
publican nominee who is planted firmly
On the old platform OF q reasonable tariff
for protection. But be is not ready and
be " II refuse to give in his allegiance to
the new and un-Repubhcan doctrine that
the tariff shall not be reformed, shall not
be touched in any single item, aud that
that reduction of revenue shall be made
wholly by the repeal Of taxes on useless or
harmful luxuries.
We know the strength Of the feeling
that has placed itself behind the cause Of
tamil reform. We Of the Northwest do not
underestimate il, or question the justice
of its demand and the purity Of its motive.
II the Republican pSrty is to keep its
strength for this coming contest, if it is to
aspire to a renewal of national industries
from the fatal onset Of those whose rally
ing cry is o tariff for revenue only, Their
it must be prepared to offer to the people
of the country some scheme Of tax redue-
ton that shall lessen the cost Of the neees-
saries oflife. 1t cannot win on the plat
form presented by the minority Of the
Committee ON Ways and Means.

Free Wool.


In the cold climate Of the Northern
States wooden clothing, blankets, bedding
and carpets will cost the family of the
average workingmsn or farmer at least $50
per annum for each member--an expense
that could be met with $40 each if wool
were on the free list and duties on woolens
we're reduced one-third, rs they might be
with great advantage both to mauufactur-
ers and consumers. The policy Of free
wool is q distinct and great benefit for the
Northern States, where wooden goods con-
sti:ute q prime necessity. With free wool
and the duties reduced one-third the 49,
900, 900 of people north of Mason and
Dixon's line would save $3.50, 900, 900 a
year on their wooden wear, blankets and
carpets, and get better goods for their
