Mrs Sheridan,s Finances.

Boston transcripts Washington Letter.
Mrs. Sheridan returns to Washington
with her children next week. The idle
talk about Mrs. SheridaD'S poverty,
coming from people who ought TO know
better. must annoy her extremely, for
she is woman OF great dignity and in
tegTitv: and while it IS hard to predict
in these days, when every public mans
family. 10 matter how well off. turns
beggar and accepts aims from people
poorer than itself. yet 1t will surprise
people if Mrs. Sheridan permits a sub
Scripti0n list to be passed around for
her. Gen. Sheridan had a house given
him in Washington that cost the
g1vers 80, 900, and is probably worth
more now. He also had fine house In
Chicago given him. and owned other
real estate there. and his pay as lieu
tenant-gPneral was certainly Sll 900
year. with allowances for quarters, fuel,
forage. mileage. etc. and may have
been $l3.5OO, which Gen. Sherman re-
eeived. 1t certainly was this last
amount after Gen. Sheridan was made
General of the Army, and this, with no
rent to paw since the Chicago riots in
the 10's. was enough for him 10 live and
save on. Besides, his widow has the
copyright of his book. which will I'M
deubtedly amount to large sum. so it
will be seen the Sheridans are we'll pro-
vided for.

The Manhattan" is a private trust
of which Lac Stafford is trustee. and it
was chiefly to his desire to witness
something unusual that the hunt was
gotten up, as we'll as to give his fox
terrier "DOe," and Thee Curtiss' fox
hounds some gentle exercise. In res
pOnSe to the advertisement. two foxes
and four rabbits were received. The
place selected for the hunt was the
HankiI farm on the Excelsior road, and
the huntsmen participating were: Lac
Stafford. George Bell, H. G. Vaughn.
Hal Watson, Theo Curtiss. Frank
Maekey, DR.. f. A. DunsmOer, and

In order to give the dogs a little prae-

rope IOT nile OF TWO, ana the PACK
was allowed to follow the scent, which
they did with the alacrity that might be
ikeued to chained lightning suddenly
let loose. Then one of the foxes was
given start of thirty yards, but was
caught and killed before he had gone
much farther. The rabbits proved slow
runners, too. not being of the ''jack''
variety. When the second fox was set
free it failed to run any better than
candidate on the labor ticket, and laid
down on the ground. 1t was finally
frightened to death by Hal Watson, who
made faces at it. Then occurred the
event OF the day.

Cardinal Gibbons gTeets visitor with
a cordial smile and hearty grasp of
the hand. At first blush he appears to
be a rather ordinary little man. The
paIIor Of health on the smoothly shaven
face contrasts we'll with the S0mber
black hueS of his raiment. His figure
is slight and apparently delicate. He is
rather under the average height. and
save for c head of irOn-gFay hair
would impress one as decidedly YOUTH
full in appearance. His clothing is of
black. of clerical cut. The only inSig-
MIA of rank is the deep red silk eraYat
that encircies his slender neck. There
is really nothing extraordinary in his
aDDearance save for a marvellous re-
semblance to another of AIaFyland's
noted sons. Arthur German. As the
cardinal engages in conversation the
manneFisms and tricks of voice and
action make him ana the senator eOun-
terpartS of each other. German has a
way of looking straight from the un-
fashionable depths OF Steef-gray eyes.

MIR. Morton's Reputation.

Levi P. Morton won long ago a Ma
tlonal reputation as the head of one
of the great banking firms of the
world. Elected to the House of Rep
resentatives, he there added to his
fame and justified the high expecta-
tons of his friends by speeches on
financial questions, which showed that
he was not merely practical banker,
but understood the theory and philos-
ophy of finance in its largest sense
and in it's National aspects. His name
was prominently mentioned in connec-
ton with the Weep Presidency on the
ticket with Garfield in 1880 and he
was strongly urged for Secretary of
the Treasury in 1881. He declined the
Naval portfolio and accepted the posi-
ton of Minister to France, which he
filled most acceptably during the
Arthur Administration. He divided
with Senator Hiscock and ex-senator
Warner Miller the favor of the Repub-
Ican caucus in the last Senatorial
election in New York. State. He is a
man whose talents and tastes qualify
him conspicuously for high public Of
ice, and there is an evident fitness in
giving this representative and leading
citizen of New York the second place
on the Republican National ticket, the
tlrst having gone to the all-powerful

TARlEE For REVENUE.
Why the Terms Democrat and Ere
Trader Arc SyuonymOus,

Why the Terms Democrat and Free
Trader Are synonymous.
By general consent the Republican
party applies the term free trade to
the Democratic party and, when
spoken of in connection with the tariff,
it Is called the ..free trade party"
The Democrats object to this name,
and the greater portion of the Demo-
cratic press protest against the appli-
cation of the term. Let us see how
this is. In the first place no small fac
ton of the Democratic party are free
traders, according to their own state
ments, and, when speaking for the
party, claim that the platform is much
more of a free trade platform than a
protection one. An analysis of the
tariff plank of 1884, which was re-
affirmed at st. Louis, must be accepted
as the sentiment of the party regarding
the subject. There is but one material
point in that platform, for, regardless
of all that is said concerning labor and
wages, the essence of the whole resolu-
ton Is found in the words: eve de-
mand that Federal taxation shall be ex-
clusively for public purposes. This
is simply another way of saying: "a
tariff for revenue only, = which was the
language of the platform Of 1880, Or,
''we demand that all custom-house tax
alton shall be only for revenue, - which
was the language of 1876. ga tariff
for revenue only or Exclusively for
public purposes can not mean q
tariff for any thing else. It means a
''tariff for revenue only" regardless Of
every other consideration, for were
other objects considered it could not be
a tariff for revenue only OR for public
purposes exclusively. "Only' or EEK
clusively" can not mean more, and
revenue simply is all that is embraced
in the term. A tariff that does not
protect the interests for which it was
designed from foreign influences, is in
every material sense free trade. A
tariff for revenue only can not mean a
protective tariff. Protection does not
enter into the idea of revenue tariff
at all. 1t is no part of it, and if such a
tariff would prove protective it would
be only accidental. Incidental pro-
lection . is no protection. Any thing
that may or may not be, is not, and
the only protection that can be is di-
rect. The difference between the two
parties is, the Republicans demand pro-
lection as the prime factor of a tariff,
while the Democrats demand revenue
as the only purpose of duties on i'm
ports. A revenue tariff can not be a
protective tariff, for the stimulus which
a reduction of duties will give impor-
tation will make necessary SO great a
reduction that the protective element
will entirely disappear, and its effect
be lost, When this is gone what have
we better than free trade? According
to the declarations of the party we do
not see why objections should be urged
to the term of free traders Chicago
