the receipt Of an invitation to attend the
grand Masonic ball and supper to be
given at Deadwood, under the auspices
Of the general executive committee on
Thursday evening, June l4th, but regret
exceedingly that the unfayorable condi-

walking fairly intolerable to persons OF
our peculiar build, will prevent us from
participating in the social enjoyments

The communication from DR.. Emmens,
appearing in this issue, will be read
with exceptional interest by our local
patrons. The DR.. very clearly states
his plans and intentions relative to
future mining operations in this vicinity
supplementing the same with opinions
favorable to the region in a mineral
point of view. That DR.. Emmens should
receive a letter Of the character describ-
ed from a gentleman prominently con-
nected with the New York press, will
excite no surprise in this locality where
the force Of this order of criticism,
from a similar source. has SO long
been felt. 1t has been an especially
noticeable fact that certain Nav York
journals solicitude for the interests of
Legitimate mining in the tin regions
of the Black Hills, has developed in a
ratio which closely corresponded with
the development of the mines. which
not un~reasonbly leads us TO the con-
clusion, that these self same self APP
pointed sentinels, who are posing as
protectors Of legitimate mining, are
solicitous, for q consideration and we
believe that we can safely assure DR.
Emmens that his mining ventures in
this locality, enormous" or otherwise,
here regarded as being not only
entirely legitimate, but fairly promising
enterprises, which are not calculated to
deceive the public, or in any manner
injure the interests Of legitimate min
ing,

Work will resume on the Stewart
mine, Bald Mountain, July lst. In con-
versation with Mr.. A. d. Clark, the
largest individual stakeholder in the
corporation, a Pioneer reporter was re-
Gently informed that there arc now on
the dump Of the mine not less than one
thousand tons of ore of the average value
of S25 per ton. The ore body, shoot or
deposit, is one hundred feet thick and
is supposed to extend the full length OF
the claim. Developments at the north
end of the claim have blocked out one
hundred feet square Of ore, whilst at the
south end rs feet square are blocked out
by cross cuts and tunnels. The ore will
all average about $50 per ton.-Pioneer.

T1RIFF REVISION.

The ideas which The New York Tribune represents
are the ideas which will dominate the next Admins
tration. Tho Trbune's fiat reputation of any step
toward the revision of the tariff is not haphaard
utterance 1t speaks by the card for controlling
forces in Repubncanism. Argus Dem.)
THE TRIBUNE does not repudiate any STEP
towards the revision of the tariff" fatty" OF
otherwise We have constantly said that the
tariff should be revised that all tariffs, in the
very nature Of the case need frequent and
regular revisions to adapt them to the chang
ing conditions of manufactures and trade.
But we have also insisted that the tariff
should be revised by its friends, not it's enc
mics by men who want to perfect 1t, not to
destroy it. The Nation has prospered beyond
precedent under protective tariff and will
entrust the needed revisions only to men who
believe in the principles that underlie that
tariff.
Just as soon as Republicans come into power,
with control Of legislative as well as executive
department. we expect to see such revision
begun and completed by careful, intelligent
men, who will know how to reduce the revenue
to the wants of the Government, without at
lacking our industries, lowering wages or de-
ranging business. And whoever predicts the
contrary will find himself once more as ride
ulous a laughing-stock as he is now, after his
confident predictions, only fortnight ago, of
Cleveland's triumphant reelection.

THE SENATE Thrift BILL.

"The Syracuse Journal" need not be ex-
cited about criticism of the Senate Tariff bill.
If our Syracuse friend thinks the measure was
actually help to Republicans in the late cam
paign, his judgment differs from that Of THE
TRIBUNE, and he is of course entitled to ex-
press it as temporarily or Unexpectedly as he
pleases But Republicans in all parts of the
country have observed the use made OF the
Senate bill by Democrats during the late cam
paign, and especially the use of some OF its
provisions in the States where they were not
popular and can Judge for themselves whether
any good to compensate for the harm thus done
was attained. No one supposes that the men
who pushed this bill lack sincere patriotism,
but men whose motives are the best sometimes
fall into errors of judgment.
AS to the outcome predictions are not ex-
pensve, but no one denies that the Senate bill
contains valuable features, and may be made
" the basis of measure hereafter passed. That
is not the question: the bill as it stands appears
to many Republicans to require considerable
changes. IL does not seem worth while to de-
vote the short session Of Congress to the con-
sideration OF those changes when there Is not
the least reason to believe that the bill can be
passed in the House. Nor Is there reason TO
embarrass the President elect, or TO show dis

NEU,,JERSEY.

The complete county returns from New-Jer
sey, though not officially canvassed, are doubt
less correct enough to indicate clearly how the
Republicans lost that State. The plurality fol
Cleveland appears to be 7,O46, but the votes
for Cleveland and Butler in 1884 were
1924, and for Blaine IL 3,440, so that the
Cleveland and Butler vote together had pll-
rality of 1854. The Prohibition vote then
was 6,159, and this year Fisk received ','49
an increase of $50 votes. drawn mainly from
the Republicans When there are added the
thousands of votes influenced by the saloons
because Of the Local Option law, and thousands
more directly bought in few counties by the
money of hquor-dealers, it is seen that the Re
publcans must have made great gains in other
parts of the State and the returns show that
they did But while they gained thousands
because of the tariff question, the Prohibition
lists and the liquor-deale combined took away
nearly as many, leaving the plurality for Mr..
Cleveland only sos less than the plurality Of
Cleveland and Butler combined four years ago.
Now it is the turn of the Democrats TO do some
thing on the liquor question, and they have the
Governor and control of both branches of the
Legislature If they do anything, it will offend
either the liquor interest or such Of the tenn
perance voters as are not nero fanatical OBJ
structionists. But if they fail to do anything,
it will mortaIly offend the influence to which
they owe their majority.
Meanwhile the plan of Democrats to secure
permanent control of the State by reapportion-
ment and division of counties meets an OBJ
struction in the Constitution of the State II
is expressly provided In the Constitution Of
New-Jersey, as il is not in many other States,
that the apportionment for the Assembly shall
be made at the first session after census, and
"when made shall remain unaltered until an
other enumeration shall have been taken" 1t
is also provided that the "whole number of
members shall never exceed sixty" Neither is
it practicable without amendment of the Con-
stitution to change the classification of Sen
ators, who are apportipned one to each county,
and one-third of the whole number to be elected
each year. The attempt to prevent the cleo
ton of another Republican Legislature will
have to be abandoned.

The new Papal reScript in regard to boy
cotting and the Plan Of Campaign is merely
supplementary to that issued last April. The
original decree was resented and denounced
in Ireland as an interference with political
action and the Church authorities made haste
to assure the people that no such interference
was intended. An ensuing encyclical letter,
however, called upon the Bishops to condemn
the Plan of Campaign and bOycotting unre-
servedly. This does not appear to have been
done, and the rescript just issued is evidently
designed to carry the former orders into effect
The street-car men in Brooklyn who quit
work on Wednesday do not agree with Mr.
Powderly, who believes that the time has como
for strikes to give way to more rational methods
of settling disputes between employers and
workmen. These men not only joined in a
strike, but yesterday they resorted to violence
and obstruction to prevent other men from
taking their places. For such conduct there is
no justification. A wel-disciplined body OF
police was on hand, and the rioters were dis
persed with little trouble.
A Coroner's jury has decided that the gate
man, OfaDau was not gulIty OF causing tEs
death of Bser on the elevated road last week.
The evidence was inconclusive as TO his re-
sponsiblity, but it certainly seems that Grabau
did not do all in his power to save the man
whose life was in danger. This occurrence
ought to be a warning to the managers Of these
roads, and, while rules are necessary, gatemen
and conductors should be instructed that they
must exercise some discretion when the ques-
ton is Of saving or sacrificing a passengers
life.
1t is a hopeful sign that the more conserva
tive Of the leaders Of the Knights of Labor
realize that the growth Of the order was toe
rapid, and that the real interests OF those ii
sought to benefit would have been promoted by
a gradual diffusion of the ideas on which the
organization is based. From this point Of view
the large decrease in the membership is not
dsheartenng. Mr.. Powderly gave the dele

he followed is yet to be seen. but retrenchment
